No

Is that Smith-Rowe?

My draft is similar. I have different enablers in midfield and Virgil over TAA.

Mine is similar but I have gone for Palmer and Rodger’s instead of Njunku and Johnson
And no Trent

I know on paper having the arsenal centre forward for 8.0 makes sense but it's odd that he seems more popular now than he did when classified as a midfielder.
I had livramento in my first draft but have now switched to burn. Has there been any recent news about trippier leaving?
I'm not sure I'd want to start the season with that midfield unless the plan is to sell salah or wildcard early?

Yeh looks nice for a Haaland/Salah draft.
I’ll be going one. Undecided yet.

Too much compromise IMO.

I like this one a lot with the exception of ESR.

You know the risks with the mids.

I wouldn't like not having Salah or Haaland but if you're confident you can pick out captaincy options from what you've got then go for it

but salah and haaland didnt go to euros so if anything they will be fresher

was a very good pick when he was a full starter couple seasons ago
then became a very good super sub before disappearing onto the bench

Could pick up his form with fulham

People are so desperate to call "the next Palmer" that they'll hype up any top 6 reject who gets a move

There isn't really a template at the moment but I'd say this is maybe the closest thing to template

Fantastic front 7.

just needs to make 30pts over the Haaland teams in GW1 as im expecting a 15pt haul for him minimum in GW2

No haaland no party

Looks good imo.

Probably the best non Haaland team ive seen but I’d hate to go without Haaland and palmer myself

Got 8 of those, 7 starters.

Not having City offensive cover is my only concern, maybe shift Trent to free up budget to get Foden over Eze or Gordon?

hahaha - coulnt resist, and works dragging 🙂
Really like it, gone for the same back 4 but i have Haaland

Only thing id say is maybe wait a week or 2 for Nkunku?

Other than that really great team!

It's a solid build. No city attack would have me concerned though

So basically don't ask for advice on 50/50s? Would make these boards less cluttered with crud questions so I wholeheartedly agree with this.

So basically if you're a good manager you don't need advice. Can't argue with that.

It’s the most common regret I think with many managers. We all kick ourselves when we go against our gut … what I can’t stand is the moaning afterwards … could have should have but didn’t. I’m making a real conscious effort this season to go with my gut every time but it doesn’t mean I would be listening to other opinions … but when it comes to 5 minutes before the deadline I am determined to go my own way …. Famous last words of course.

You see a lot of 'advise' comments on here that I'm pretty sure are attempts at sabotage.

I like this.

Needs Haaland.

Unless the 4.5 bench player is your 5th defender. Then A

I don't know the answer but I'd argue that 1 x 4.0 defender is perfectly reasonable and maybe even advisable. Rogers is even more intriguing as an 8th attacker and who knows, may even become a 7th?

Indeed, rather unfortunate for all concerned. I saw 6-12 week guesses on their forum, ouch.

Very unfortunate…was a real option as a third striker.

Hope they kept the receipt

Feel for him. Probably will panic Brentford into keeping Toney now.

that's actually an interesting take, though in that case I would maybe include one of nailed 4.0 defenders that rotates well with your other options (Faes, Harwood...) and go for Raya set and forgot to cover for Arsenal defense

I got nothing but negative feedback on here for suggesting this.
I definitely doing it, possible with 4 x £4.5m and 1 x £4.0m.
Just need to work out the best threeway rotation system.

Very similar to my initial draft but Allison in goal and couple of 6.5 mids again great selection to choose from

Forward line picks itself this year imo

Pull up a pew, Sir.

Welcome back fella

A Harvey’s Bitter is a viable punt … but I feel Barnes isn’t with so many alternatives in midfield to pick from. One to watch perhaps.

all depends where gordon is goijng to play

trent the one who will improve most on points
watkins will be lower than 200 I feel like

Stepping up: Eze (if he stays), Nkunku (if he stays fit), Duran, Bailey, Amad, Gordon, Johnson
Dropping off: Foden, Palmer, Watkins, Solanke, Salah

Not really based off anything but gut feeling

Szoboszlai to step up in an advanced creative role.
White and Watkins to drop off (for different reasons).

thought about it, but don’t think I go there, just some uncertainty over all 15 starting and potential benching issues following weeks that early

I’d rather wait and get an idea of regular starters etc … but I always like to ditch it earlier … the reduction in DGWs I think will see its usage spread across more game weeks this year which I think is a plus.

Did BB last year GW1.
Will 100% do it again

maybe, the team i have right now then there is no chance of me using it, but i have other teams i'm contemplating with a better bench, if i go that route then why not

I've found it a nuisance too but I think the new rule to allow rolling upto 5ft makes a big difference. I expect I'll WC to set up for a BB in a DGW and then use rolled transfers to get the money back out of my bench the following week.

Plays for one of the most bipolar teams in league, hardly pulled up trees last season, and now a potential rotation risk

dont think he passed the eye test at all last season

Because there are so many good options ahead of him among the forwards

Yes, looks actually very good.

I consider Palmer to be kind of 'essential' though, but can't have them all

If he does stay fit & fire it could be a formidable double up not wanting their defence.

KDB played only 1200 minutes last season versus 2400 minutes the season before

Angry Viking gonna make sure he scores more in the 1st half before Pep calls him off

He looked beastly in the recent friendly against Celtic. Only Kasper's heroic saves denied him a hattrick. Monstrous in the the way he scored the header.

Rogers

miguel or henderson + low owned 4m gk

Probably will get some decent minutes off the bench

Been filling at CB apparently. Could cover Porro at RB. Probably bought to play CM but it looks pretty crowded in there already

Reply fail (yay first of season) to BLZE_94

Keep

Solid team and fairly similar to mine right now. If Nkunku stays fit during preseason i think we all will own him

Confident Rogers starts?

Muniz over Wood, maybe? Can see the appeal with fixtures though.

I consider Palmer to be kind of essential, but you've got all the big boys. No bench could hurt having Rogers as a starter, but it's a fine lineup overall.

Still not confident with Nkunku yet so
right now I’d go with A
