Best Brighton players to sign on FPL in 2018/19 – The Complete Members’ Analysis

Personally would not want to double up France attack over that solid Uruguay defence and would pick Kane over Griezmann. And Willian as with Casemiro out Paulinho likely to play in deeper role

Willian looked good last match so I'd probably go with him unless Douglas Costa is back from injury

Maguire

D

If Brazil go out you have 9 players out.

Hazard to Neymar and get Lingard

Hazard has returned in every game he's played. He got an assist and hit the post last game.

There's no covering. Mbappe to Neymar if you have to. Argentina getting destroyed was no surprise. Uruguay will be hard.

Surprising. Seems a bit steep to me.

This years Tommy Smith. Will play just the same.

Given the fact you have Coutinho and Neymar, I'd get Rakitic

Great moves.

Willian will likely play as a winger (not front 3):

Here is a bit on Rakitic:
https://www.reddit.com/r/FantasyPL/comments/8vxmbq/russia_vs_croatia/

"I think Croatia will win easily, but I wouldn't take Rakitic. He has really defensive role in our squad and is really unlikely to get assists/goals so you are looking at 3 pts for 8.5 price. I would rather get cheaper midfielder and take better striker than Mbappe, but that's just me."

"Rakitic is big unknown. He had defensive role until the last game against Denmark. In that match, he was playing way ahead of Modric and was attacking all the time + he was on set pieces as well. He was basically playing a Modric role, who was sitting way back and barely made it near the box. So big question is: Will Croatia go back to their style, letting Modric to attack and Rakitic playing defense or other way around, like in the last game? It is worth to monitor."

"Even in last game, 2nd half he played extremely defensive. And it really depends on our last midfielder, if Brozovic starts, you can bet that he'll play full defence."

A question for you Fffrog. I notice you have Lingard. What do you think of him as an option? I'm currently deciding between these two:

A) Golovin and Maguire
B) Lingard and Pavard (exact money so I can't stretch to Hernandez or anyone else)

Cheers,

I'm thinking of doing Ramos, Isco, Costa to Kane, Willian and Pavard. Not sure the -4 to ship Meunier who has a decent assist potential is worth it, but I get that you're then getting two decent defenders who 'should' go through (although Sweden have beaten NL, IT, MX and SU in the last year so Eng aren't exactly the biggest toughest fixture for them).

W v R depends how nervous you are about Brazil crashing out I guess. Willian looked good last game, but has flattered to deceive in the others (and still only got a single assist). Haven't watched Croatia so can't really comment on Rakitic

Are you sure about losing Meunier and not Quintero?

You seem quite sure Brazil will go through - I think they might but am by no means certain - I have 3 Brazilians and 2 Belgians

Has to be B due to Cheryshev not starting the last match

Or A as the 2 Be are a booking away from suspension.

I've gone A

T Silva for me

Maybe Silva, but I think Brazil will probably concede.

T Silva here too

B

Good to go.

Looking good

Hits very rarely pay off in this format. I'd go B.

Agree with the Prof

B

They started off so well too. Reckon Ses and Morisson are both overpriced.

Yeah, a Tom Ince too. The thing is they had little choice, most of us were predicting for him to be a £6.5m midfielder as soon as they became promoted. His stats are insane.

Oh well, only another 400+ players to choose from

1st time in the prem at 18 years points to him having a hard time adjusting to higher quality opposition. I can't see him doing well

No. Plays week in week out and hardly gets injured.

Under Mourinho? Yes.

Based on last season, absolutely. Would've liked to see him at 10.5. I know even that's high but it'll keep us guessing.

Yeah I think there will be better options for that price

For me it depends on the forgotten man alexis, would rather him at like 10m

Yes. He obviously doesn't inspire you or else you wouldn't ask...and if that's the case you'll sell him as fast as you get him...

And yet, despite the opinions above, we all know he'll go on a run of 9-10 GWs where he's scoring consistently every week, and we're going to be complaining about the 'casuals' that own him and complaining that our deeply thought-out strategy of double Cardiff and Wolves (they all have promising stats, you see) mids is not matching him 😛

No 1st name in my team

If you look at his xG for the last 4 seasons he has 0.49 goals per game last season, 0.46, 0.57, 0.39.

His price point is that of an elite level goal scorer, although he is young, so its possible that he still develops into one.

If you believe in the predictive power of xG, Lukaku and Firmino are the 2 more overpriced players in FPL.

*to give

Why do FPL care about the BBC though?

Avoid

*albeit

Who, or what, is Yerry Mina?

FPL would price him at 7.0

He's been absolutely shambolic for Barcelona, but he looks a different player for Colombia. It would indeed be interesting - looks like the PL suits his playing style a lot more.

All I can say is congratulations for surviving the last round with at least 13 playing players!

I would say B or C, depends on your faith in France or Brazil

Honestly think this is a little poor. Brazil, imo, are heavy favourites and Neymar will have alot of luck. You've sat on the fence for that game. Pogba seems an absolute waste - he doesn't get forward in this formation very much, and you are wasting two spots with a 4m and a 4.3. Why not downgrade Pogba, bring in a better back up gk, and use a fifth mid who will play? I'd re-look at it, and consider the point of using a Wildcard which rids you of two spots.

looks like the template now, differential pogba ?

Kane Neymar griez/mandzukic imo
