RMT

Post by itslikebrandnew »

Feedback appreciated for this team. I've avoided players on world cup duty that might get an extra week or two off, and tried to pick from teams that don't have a hard start. I'll be bringing in players like Aubameyang after the first couple of fixtures, and a few world cup stars. I may have to downgrade Sanchez depending on how he does and once the easy fixtures are done for Everton i'll swap Tosun to a cheap mid to free up cash for Kane etc.


Pope 3.2m
Ward 3m
Van Aanholt 3.2m
Robertson 3.8m
Hoilett 2.9m
Sane 4.9m
Salah 6m
Sanchez 5.6m
Tosun 5.5m
Wood 4.5m
Aguero 6.8m

There's no easy fixtures at the start of the season, only unpredictability.
I would have thought that you of all people would realise this with the way you started with Huddersfield last season :wink:
On the other hand, if you think that Everton have an easy start then Coleman & Baines are surely the way to go in defence.

No chance i'll be putting too much faith in Everton. Too many people went Everton mad at the beginning of last season and it didn't work.

Yep i get the unpredictability, partly why i've tried not to go with too many players from the same team.

Prepare to be frustrated whilst holding Aguero. Pep rotated him a lot with Jesus when both were fit last season. I remember looking forward to the Stoke home game and rightly so as city scored 7. Well Aguero didn't even make it onto the pitch as he was left as an unused sub :cry:

I won't be going near Burnley players if they progress into the group Europa stages, I think it will screw them over. A combination of a small squad and hard running style is made for a 40 game season not 50+.

He won't be staying long. I had the same problems last season with the Sky game and kept chasing Man City strikers and wasted too many transfers going backwards and forwards. I'll have a completely different team week 5.

This team will change fairly quickly when the big hitters come back from world cup duty and i may have to downgrade my Burnley players.

Amazing firepower up top and defenders known to get goals and assists. My only concern would be a potential lack of cleansheets - you would need amazing returns from the front players to keep up with the block defences.

Thanks for the feedback, i've got to dump Douglas now but your feedback got me thinking. Perhaps i should block defence this team with a couple of options. Not sure there would be much choice though but i could get 3 games out of Cardiff to start with. Not checked who else i could do with the cash available though.
