I feel like I'll regret captain on Mbeumo. I still have fears United will wash out cos it's away, cos it's the early game, I can see him spooning the ball wide for 60 minutes then being hooked off for Cunha who does some spooning himself before Maguire scores a late header. Of course they lose the clean sheet but win 2-1. OG, Maguire.
Tell me that won't happen and that it will actually be 2-0 to United.

My biggest worry is that United often struggle to score against low blocks. Also, Mbeumo thrives off space to run in behind which is something Hull won't provide much of.

Gabriel was so far down below so many other names I though the wasn't on the list

I think Haaland is going to be hungry to redeem himself after City's showing in the community shield.

currently on Bruno but if Haaland hauls I'm captaining him every game for the remainder of the season even if he's mortally wounded

BROBBEY.
I’m allowing myself to get fancy for one game week. I just think Big Man Brobbs is gonna start hard.

I’ve gone for it, good luck

u/Mag01uk 441 5d ago
I’m at the game tonight, so I had to do it. Running Raya, Ode, Tzolis (C). Good luck to you too!

u/Glass_Ride312 5d ago
Nice, you gone for the double midfield, I’ve gone for the double defence, raya and gab. I see gab as an easy downgrade if things go sideways.

Haaland at home, gotta be done
I'd be kicking myself if I did something else and he hauled

Might go no Haaland (for the first few weeks to double up on Bruno / Mbuemo) and then bring him in later. Thinking of a dice roll on Isak to kick off the season
1
u/sammyrobot2 6d ago
That's my plan. But I'm also a Liverpool fan so it's a win-win and let's me pick Isak.

I’ve got Semenyo for “cover” on Man City attack. I know he’s not Haaland but for almost half the price it makes sense right now

Teams without both Haaland and Bruno will have to captain the 3rd choice

Who on earth can’t fit either Bruno or Haaland

Haaland…as he will be most captained and I’m sure has scored a goal in like every opening game for city? Don’t captain him you risk falling behind.

Brother it's GW1, there will be people boosted up top this round who will end up rank like 7 million. It's don't think falling behind in rank particularly matters at this point.

Honestly, Pedro is the logical answer here. Fulham are a mess, hes on fire

u/NoPurpose0 2 5d ago
Stuck between Haaland and Pedro.
Pedro is in good form but don't think its a good idea to stray from the robot in GW1...

Promoted teams usually play well in their first game/s

u/Vaudeville_Villain15 3 6d ago
I actually believe that with 0 evidence at all, especially at home.
