Dream Teams Temporarily Unavailable


Fantasy Premier League, the official fantasy football game of the Barclay's Premier League has been temporarily unavailable for a day or two now. The new season anticipation is building some steam, especially with the release of player price lists recently of the Sky Sports game and Fantasy League Classic.

Whilst we wait then we cannot help but dream and speculate about who we'll be bringing in to our team. It's still early days so this is just a bit of fun.


Goalkeepers/Defence

Southampton's end of season form defensively was much improved and they're strengthening at the back this summer. Goalie Artur Boruc and fullback Luke Shaw are firmly in our thoughts. We will be interested in picking up a defender from Chelsea and Liverpool too. 

Midfielders

To start with we're dead keen on Liverpool's Phillpe Coutinho and Everton's Kevin Mirallas for our midfield, the latter in particular we think will offer great value. Depending on who else City sign this summer David Silva could be come good again, or else it'll be Eden Hazard or Theo Walcott in the team and it'be hard to ignore Gareth Bale.

Forwards

We're probably struggling for funds by now but that's okay as this is just a dream team ;) Upfront we'd love to see Gonzalo Higuain at Arsenal and Wilfred Bony sign for Swansea. Fitting Van Persie in is going to be tricky as hell, especially with Bale, so some juggling is required. Sergio Aguero will pull on our heart strings some and then there's Benteke stirring up trouble with his transfer request. Can we have five forwards and an extra £10m please?  Crystal Palace's Dwight Gayle could be a decent cheapie.
