Here's a hypothetical dilemma:
Would you choose your current squad of 15 players
OR
a squad of 15 players of your choice, where 1) PRICE IS NO RESTRICTION, but 2) you can't choose any player you already own.
My current (3-5-2):
Forster, Jakupovic
Shaw, McAuley, Koné, Collins, Amat
Payet, Sanchez, Antonio, Firmino, Capoue
Agüero, Lukaku, Diomande
What I would get (whatever):
Bravo, Lloris
Coleman, Alderweireld, Bellerin, Shaw, Ivanovic
De Bruyne, Hazard, Mané, Sterling, Özil
Costa, Ibrahimovic, Vardy
Only in defence is the free picks team vastly superior, and the goalkeepers are slightly better (PPG: Lloris 4.7, Jakupovic and Forster 4.6, Bravo 4.0).
Front 7 out of 8 is hard to call. Right now:
Sanchez > KdB (over the next 5 fixtures, imo)
Firmino = Mané
Payet > Hazard
Antonio > Sterling (slightly, imo)
Capoue > Özil (tough, but Capoue has both form and fixtures)
Forwards ranked: 1 Agüero 2 Lukaku 3 Ibrahimovic 4 Costa 5 Vardy
It's actually close, this. Does the defence make the free picks team the best?

Re: Your 15 vs Free Picking All Others
My current (3-4-3):
Foster, Jakupovic
Valencia, Baines, Evans, Mee, Amat
Lallana, Sanchez, Antonio, Sterling, Capoue
Agüero, Lukaku, Janssen
All Others:
Cech, Gomes (them fixtures)
Coleman, Alderweireld, Bellerin, Holebas, Rose(if healthy)
De Bruyne, Hazard, Firmino, Mane, Payet
Costa, Ibrahimovic, I really don't know, maybe Vardy
All Others wins I think.

I'm half way through a second bottle of Pinot Grigio & this appears to be overthinking
When I have sunk the rest of the bottle clarity will of course descend

Re: Your 15 vs Free Picking All Others
Holebas is a great option at the minute, and absolutely nailed on in that 4.5m slot in my wildcard team. He is playing virtually as a winger, has a healthy share of set pieces, and the fixtures for the next few are about as good as it gets.Cliffard wrote:

Re: Your 15 vs Free Picking All Others
Surely it has to be..
Cech / Lloris (Rotating H/A)
Bellerin / Walker / Coleman / Dann / Azpi
Sanchez / KDB / Mane / Payet / Eriksen
Ibra / Costa / Vardy

De Gea/Lloris
Bellerin/Rose/Shaw/Coleman/Ivanovic
KdB/Payet/Ozil/Mane/Sterling
Aguero/Vardy/Lukaku
Hell of a team compared to the bunch I have.
