Single entrant, RMT

Post by Thomarse »

Back again! Anyone fancy casting a glancing eye over my potential team .. ideas welcome!

Sanchez

White
Shaw
Amartey

Fernandes
Gilmour
Mane
Raphinha
Grealish

Kane
Toney

leaves 1.9 mill .. which seems too much but cant quite fit in any of the other big names without wholesale changes. Does leave room for changes to Grealish and Amartey should they not work out. Thoughts?

Most people seem to think defenders offer better VFM and have 4 or 5.

Can't see Kane starting off strong (wherever he plays/sulks)

Does the new scoring not make midfielders more VFM?

Yes but maybe not enough to counter previous defender advantage.

A few little tweaks ...

Sanchez

White
Shaw
Cresswell

Fernandes
Gilmour
Mane
Son
H. Barnes

Jota
Toney

In theory should be a starting 11 and with .5 left, allows to change to Kane if needs be from Son / Mane / Bruno as and when or get a City / Liverpool defender in once the season starts and we know whats going on.

Murf .. Jota likely to start? Having a good pre season ...

Jota having a good pre season but Mane and Salah are fully fit and Firmino isn't far off, playing 59 minutes and scoring twice yesterday.

Who will Klopp rest, drop or rotate? Jota may play game 1 ahead of Firmino but probably not after that. I wouldn't risk him personally, especially as you can afford to go direct to Kane.

OK, so which team looks better .. First one is mainly based on starting fixtures around Liverpool and United, second on more spread out on teams:

Sanchez

White
Shaw
Targett
Coufal

Bruno
Salah
Mane
Sancho
Gilmour

Toney

Leaves 1m to change to Kane if needed or downgrade Sancho (obvs risk putting him in but United fixtures are great).

OR

Sanchez

White
Shaw
Targett

Bruno
Salah
Son
Barnes
Gilmour

Toney
Antonio

Leaves 0.8m .. could upgrade Son to Mane to get the better fixtures but if Kane is absent / gone, Son is surely going to the main points go to? Still would leave enough to upgrade to Kane as and when we know more.
