Ted Maul Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I think Sturridge is way too much of a sacrifice to the rest of one's team considering the exit of his considerably more gifted strike partner. Could well be that he ends up scoring 20 but £11.5million? Damn. Could get so much more quality in the team with that few extra million to spare. No doubt I'll end up eating these words.

I don't agree. I think there's a lot of cheap defenders around for the first rounds at least that will play. I think Sturridge, Rooney, Diego Costa and Lukaku are all extremely price worthy for the first weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Since Sturridge is now the focal point of the attack, you could argue he's an even better pick than last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Since Sturridge is now the focal point of the attack, you could argue he's an even better pick than last season. Exactly and what people forget he was averaging a goal a game during Suarez suspension last season. The idea that he needs Suarez to perform is at best a myth.

I suppose Sturridge is guaranteed to be the main man looking at Liverpool's striking options, but Lukaku and even Rooney and Costa are condiserably cheaper than him. I think 11.5m is overpriced. Now I have said that everyone on the forum should all pick him because he'll tear the league apart and earn 300 points Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Since Sturridge is now the focal point of the attack, you could argue he's an even better pick than last season. He was scoring goals just fine when Suarez was out last season. Coutinho played better with Suarez out of the XI as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Changed again! Opening day will be as thus: Mignolet Cahill, Lovren, Debuchy, Blackett Mutch, Hazard ©, Eriksen, Sissoko Giroud (v), Sturridge Subs: Elliot, Bony, B.Davies, Walters Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Debuchy is a card magnet, I'd go for other Arsenal defenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I have about 6 reliable players who should get good points each week, 7 when Ozil gets back and then 4 or 5 players who are very, very average. I don't think this will work out for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumpet Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I, like many others have included mata and rooney due to Man Utd's easy opening fixtures. But looking back at LVG's Netherlands, their team (With prime Robben and RVP) struggled to score goals against park the bus teams (which I suspect likes of Swansea/Sunderland/Burnley) will go for in that 3-5-2 formation. They'd most likely win the games, but I think we may be deceived at idea of goal/assist galore by Mata/Rooney in those games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Coutinho and Lukaku any day. Aye, I wouldn't want to rely on Henderson for points. Although if you can I'd try and get an extra 500k for Sterling. Will probably get a lot more goals than Coutinho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Froggy: Is Blackett set for a run at wing back, or will Rafael and Young be picked? Sigurdsson has been in my team from Day 1 - I love the bloke! - but I'm reconsidering him. It'll either be Siggy & Austin, or De Jong & Fletcher.

Gutted at inability to fit Sturridge in, but I'll probably do it after the international break.
