Who's in your Opening Day starting 11?

[Steve67]

Guzan, Crespo, Amavi, Richards (captain) Clark
Gueye, Veretuit, Sanchez
Ayew, Adebayor, Gil/Grealish

Subs: Hutton, Bunn, Grealish/Gil, Westwood, Gabby, Senderos and Bacuna.

Hopefully Veretuit signs. Replace Clark and Guzan if there is any money left over.

[paul_e]

Assuming Adebayor and Veretout sign and Grealish and ASanchez aren't fit enough to start I'd go with:

Guzan

Bacuna, Richards, Clark, Amavi

Gueye, Westwood

Gil, Veretout, Ayew

Adebayor

Subs: Bunn, Okore, Crespo, Sanchez, Grealish, Sinclair, Kozak

I'd be very pleased with that all things considered.

[Matt Collins]

Okore is injured, Gil nursing a knock, Sanchez currently absent and I assume gabby may be out now. Grealish surely won't be ready and adebayor may not be match fit?

I think you'd have to go w kozak at the moment. I wouldn't throw too many debutants in at once. It still looks like bacuna and Sinclair get the wide gigs 😔

                         Guzan

Hutton    Richards    Clarke     Amavi

               Gueye     Westwood

Sinclair                Gil                Robinson

                        Kozak


This is assuming injuries to Okore, Gabby, Grealish and Sanchez as well as non match fitness/ too early for the others

[Holte L2]

                     Guzan

Bacuna    Richards   Clark   Amavi

                Sanchez   Gueye

  Ayew          Veretout         Sinclair

                    Adebayor

[Matt Collins]

Guzan - Hutton Richards Clark amavi - bacuna Westwood gueye Sinclair - Gil / ayew - kozak

Subs: bunn baker Sanchez veretout grealish Robinson  adebayor

[sirlordbaltimore]

Guzan

Crespo, Richards, Clark, Amavi

Gueye, Westwood

Gil, Veretout, Ayew

Adebayor


Few big assumptions there, such as hoping Veretout & Adebayor sign up

Quite worried at the back in all honesty as the right back position scares me to death, and i'm not sold on the centre back situation either to be completely honest. If Okore was fit i'd start Richards at right back despite his supposed preference for playing at CB

As Okore isn't fit, i guess we have little choice unless we bring someone else in

Clark starts for me over all other CB options right now

[tony scott]

I would start with.        Guzman

                Richards Baker Clark Amavi
                             Gueye Westwood
                    Bennett        Sinclair
                    Ayew.          Kozac
         
Not the strongest but should be tight at the Back this assumes no other incomes I know using Bennett in Midfield is a bit of a risk but I think it's worth giving it a go

[JUAN PABLO]

Guzan, Hutton, Richards, Clark, Amavi, Gueye, Veretout, Sanchez, Ayew, Adebayor, Gil

Subs Bunn, Crespo, Senderos, Westwood, Grealish, Sinclair, Kozak

Looked a sexy exciting  team and then I saw Hutton.

[Legion]

Nothing wrong with Hutton.

                     Guzan

Crespo   Richards   Clark   Amavi

                Sanchez   Gueye
