The Numbers Game – 2015/16 Review – Everton

Our series of members’ articles, which review the numbers behind the 2015/16 season, continues this evening with an assessment of Everton.

To get underway, we cast an eye over the Toffees’ team data, comparing them to the rest of the top-flight, before analysing their first-team squad, key goal threats and creative sources in an attempt to gain insight on their prospects for the season ahead.


The Merseysiders will, of course, have a new man in charge after Ronald Koeman replaced Roberto Martinez in the hotseat. Everton finished in eleventh spot in each of the Spaniard’s final two campaigns at the helm, accruing 47 points on both occasions, though a drop in resilience saw them concede 55 times in 2015/16 – a defensive record only better than the bottom five.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Predictions for the day?

    Premium mids and forwards uplifted to ultra premium prices
    Players expected to be in the 8-9.5 range uplifted to 9-10.5 range
    Premium defenders becoming 0.5 cheaper
    Goalkeepers priced like last year
    Pandemonium when FPL Managers realise their previously successful structure doesn't fit the budget and that they will need to roll the dice on a low priced fwd, two low priced mids and 3 defenders to start the season

      First word of your last sentence.

      They are gonna overprice the lot of them.
      I'm seeing it already. The headlines are gonna be "Revenge Of The Budget"

      work that team value first 10 weeks of the season, dont be afraid to WC. So much price movement at the start when all players are active

      The guarantee when it finally launches is that people will think everyone is too expensive and it's impossible to make a team

      1. Numb

        7 years, 10 months ago

        Mahrez, Payet, Alli, Vardy etc were not too expensive last year - the bargains will be out there, just need to find them!

          They weren't no. But no-one knew what they were going to do before the season started.

            • 10 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            Payet and Mahrez not too difficult to find IMO.

            1. Numb
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 10 months ago

              Not with an early WC they weren't!

                For sure. I had both in my side week 1. Payet from prior year form. I followed him due to Everton interest. Mahrez was hot the last qtr of the previous year as was Leicester as a whole.

          As you say - have to find the bargains. But the initial thoughts will be that EVERYONE is too expensive! 🙂

      More disappointment as a delay is announced due to technical issues. Damn EA servers!

  3. Irish Madridista ⭐
    • 13 Years

    Note how excited we all are right now...

    Try to keep that level of excitement when it's actually released, remember how much you wanted to tinker and ignore the fact that it might seem difficult to make the perfect team... That's what your rivals will struggle with, but you got this, number 1 OR is waiting for ya!

          Sorry, that was a bit harsh.
          You have as much a chance as the next guy Andy.

        I assume that Mark, Jonty, etc are involved in the final testing of the new FPL site? Did they give you any hints at SC?

          • 13 Years

          They're not involved with testing that I know of.

          As for SC, I don't even know what you mean! 🙂

            ScoutCamp! Wow, they really are keeping things close to their chest. You must have noticed they've hardly been on here?

              Scoutcamp of course....

              Nope - no super special inside info I'm afraid.

              Both of them were on yesterday, Jonty during day and Mark in the evening. As for how often versus other times of the year I have no idea! 🙂

              I guess they have stuff to prepare for either way, whenever it eventually launches.

    Kane

    Martial
    Smalling
    Courtois

        It's more likely that Sunderland will win the league than Harry Kane being priced at 10.0m 😉

    They should be slipping us some prices, given the delay. Rude.

        Just seemed obvious to bang it out after The Euro's, seems to be dragging now.

    1. LouieM97

      Genius

    2. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      The two Manchester strikers, most likely.

      1. Piggs Boson
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Zlatan and Rooney

    3. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Courtois - Mandanda
      Shaw - Alderweireld - Bellerin - Coleman - 4.0
      Hazard - Pogba - Mkhitaryan - Brady - Gradel
      Aguero - Ibrahimovic - Higuain/Sturridge

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        4 Utd players

        Is that allowed under the new rules?

        1. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          I only see three in there..

          Pogba signed for Bournemouth last night.

          1. Syd.
            • 14 Years

            He was always overrated

      2. markrogers1
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Very nice but Zlatan is 12m so a tad overbudget there.

        1. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          That's why I have a 4.0 defender 😎

        1. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 13 Years

          Swap out Mkhitaryan for Mata so..

    4. Prøphet
      • 8 Years

      Mkhi / Kun / Ibra are the ones i am looking at to start with and build around.

  10. High Hopes For Janssen
    pompeyfan
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 10 months ago

    Just a couple of points about Vincent Janssen:
    -He was the youngest player to score more than 25 goals in a season in the league since Ronaldo.
    -The first player to score more than 20 goals after the winter stop in 50 years.
    -He won talent of the year.
    -Has 3 in 5 at international level, and 10 in 12 at U21 & U20 combined.

    He's a serious player, and if he gets a chance in the team, could do very well imo.

    1. markrogers1
      • 7 Years

      Cant see Poch playing 442

      1. Irish Madridista ⭐
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Just gotta drop the overrated Harry so.

      2. pompeyfan
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        me neither, but if Kane gets an injury, is tired or carries his appalling Euros form into the season...

        1. Pieterke30
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          I agree with you. If Kane gets injured for a few weeks, for instance, Janssen will have to be considered. He is a great finisher imo. Intelligent player. But as long as Kane is fit, would be silly to include a 7ish player who will not start most games in your 3-men frontline

    2. Sjaugen
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Counterpoint: Kane 😐

      1. pompeyfan
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        I'm still not convinced though that Kane is a better player. He'll have to get back to his best quickly

        1. Sjaugen
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          If he starts off like last season, people will be screaming for Jannsen.
          Is Dembele gonna be fit for GW1?

          Kane was a beast when it came to the underlying stats tho, after he got the ball rolling around GW10 ish

          1. pompeyfan
            • 14 Years
            7 years, 10 months ago

            totally agree. He needs a strong start.

            Not sure about Dembele's fitness, but will be a factor as always.

          2. buffrey
            • 11 Years

            Dembele suspended for the first handful of games. (4?!?)

          Ah now, he's definitely the better player. England were terrible at the Euros, not Kane. He was on set pieces and got no service. Still young, one of Spurs' leaders and undoubtedly one of the league's best players. The only way Janssen gets a look in is with 2 up front or a Kane injury. He ain't getting dropped.

        Does no one feel this could be another Van Wolfswinkel moment?

        I for one don't know an awful lot about him, but after watching some of his performances on youtube I am not overly convinced.

    1. Jøssy ⭐

      That has to be mine too. I always take hits to avoid paying an extra 0.1M.

      Last year it meant I built the highest TV I've ever had... in the season whenit mattered least!!

      I reckon TV is back this year though.

    BFS-the national team gets a national manager that fits the national charecter
    conte italy and so on.
    So england happy with a 'scrapper' with a main claim to fame that he avoids relegation...what a stupid lack of ambition idea.
    oh yes from the nation that voted with that mentality a fews back...why should i be suprised.

    1. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years

      Anything better than yes man Hodgson!

    2. PurpleCobras
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Seems a bit harsh on Allardici that. I'd say getting Bolton into Europe ranks alongside his knack of avoiding relegation.

      Even last season he managed to rescue a Sunderland team that looked dead and buried, and he made some of the best signings of the January transfer window to do it.

      If there was a bunch of talented, experienced English managers knocking around then I don't think we'd be considering him, but of the options out there I think he's the best

    3. Pasqualinho
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      It is uninspiring. The FA have still got to pay off a fair chunk of their 800M stadium. I'm not sure that only half-filling it for Internations is part of the plan.

    4. Sjaugen
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Plus he's gonna have a hard time busting his no relegation record.
      Unless FIFA adapts the international hockey system

    5. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      The biggest part of international management IMO is attitude and how a manager can improve and inspire players to play above and beyond themselves.

      How anybody ever thought Hodgson could do that is beyond me.

    6. pompeyfan
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      England is a 2nd tier football national team (at best). Someone with the attention to detail, discipline and tactical acumen might actually get them to perform above the norm.

    7. FIFA King
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      England are a poor team in terms of national football, when you try to play the likes of Spain and Germany at their own game you dont stand a chance, I think your best chance of success is under someone like Allardyce by playing direct football, he'll get the best out of the likes of Kane. He knows what system works for his teams and wont go into a huge competition trying to play all the best players, he will play the best player for the formation he plays. Just look at Portugal for inspiration, poor team but solid unit and tough to beat, take Ronaldo out that team and I dont think they are much better than England.

    Lets build a team....

    Put together a (recent) team of cheap/cheapish players who we all largely ignored at this stage who went on to do well during a season...I'll start with three mids...

    Alli Ramsey Yaya.

    Can anybody make a full team/squad.

    1. andy85wsm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years

      Leicester defence + Vardy

      I would include Mahrez but a few had him on here

      1. Däzzy
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Mahrez 😉

      2. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah...Mahrez was a known....Vardy didn't appear much at all though.

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Fuchs.
      Bale as a defender.
      Ighalo+Deeney.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        I remember Deemey being right up on the tables in the first month and he was still ignored. In fact he continued to be ignored right through the season for most.

        Where did he finish up for pts?...about fourth for strikers the last time I recall...

        1. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          Yep, I had Ighalo for a good chunk of the season but not sure why I kept ignoring Deeney.. I lumped on Wilson at the very start.

          Kept Ighalo waaaay too long too.

      2. Jøssy ⭐
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Deeney was quite fancied wasn't he? It was him or Wilson for the budget spot.

        1. Dr Dream
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 10 months ago

          I remember somebody coming on this site who had double Watford strikers. How we laughed....

    3. PurpleCobras
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Mahrez, no?

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Nah....he was quite fancied by quite a few FPLers. Not many started with him, and he did even better than we could have known, but he was definitely on the radar.

    4. Jøssy ⭐
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Ighalo

    5. Jigger & Pony
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      Gomez
      Ward Fuchs Simpson
      Ozil Alli Payet Willian Milner
      Vardy Ighalo

      1. Jøssy ⭐
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        Milner was well fancied. There were a lot on here debating which of Milner or Hendo were going to provide amazing budget value in the midfield.

        The answer was neither initially, but Milner did come good.

      2. Jøssy ⭐
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        You are the only person who met the original request of the comment though, for a full team 🙂

      3. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 10 months ago

        A lot of folk jumped straight on Ozil when he signed. I think his price shot up by about a mill in quick order.

    6. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 10 months ago

      I'll chuck in a defence...

      Bellerin, Dier, Coleman.

      All three rarely appeared on RMT's at this stage.
