Yeah, don't even look at it for another 2 weeks, its pretty pointless putting a squad together this early you end up driving yourself mad.

Done my first draft.

Mignolet, Guzan

Luiz, Hobbs, Rat, Sagna, G Johnson

Fer, bacuna , Paulinho , Fellaini, mata

Benteke, Lambert, Cisse

Anyone want to slate my team maybe mata/luiz wont play first two as will be tired from extended summer games?

Without going onto FPL to check prices at first glance I would say you've spent too much on your defence if you're usually going to go 3 at the back. Given that you've got Mingolet in goal you could probably downgrade G.johnson to a 4.5 then spend the extra 2m on upgrading a midfielder. If you're set on keeping Luiz & GJ then as they'll play every wk downgrade Sagna or if you think you'll play all three every week then you can downgrade Rat to a 4.0 - either way you can save some cash at the back to spend further forward IMO.

I'd drop mata for Hazard as Spain play Ecuador away three days before the start of the season & Mourinho has stated he's going to have to manage the Spanish players. Could debate form vs fixtures all season but Benteke has v.tough opening fixtures so could switch him for Sturridge or you've got no Man City players who have a kind opening schedule. Their striker situation is less clear of course. I don't know how much Cisse is but personally not a fan of his for FPL purposes & the kit dispute (now resolved) can't help matters.

Very best of luck, I've done a first draft too but am taking the Teacake approach of leaving it alone until nearer the start of the season.

Accepting any h2h bets pending discussions on terms

Up for doing the same bet we had last year for $25 or $50, H2H league vs each other.

booked

[ACE2M]

Actually will give you 60. Seems fair

$2 a point with you getting a 40 pt head start

[ACE2M]

Oh I just love the trading back and forth

Ace, what terms are you offering me?

Fair bet is scratch i suppose but it makes me want to puke giving you those terms. Totally screwing myself i think.

$200 straight bet

I think I may have a slight edge at levels so I'll give you 1/2 a point a week so you have a 19 point lead for $200. Happy with that?
