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

11 July 2018 941 comments

DavidMunday815

Everton’s midfield and forward options could be worth including in our Fantasy Premier League squads this season.

New manager Marco Silva is expected to overhaul the style used by predecessor Sam Allardyce in 2018/19 and remove the shackles from their most dangerous players.

Two midfield options and one striker in particular, that were restricted last term, boast some underlying numbers which suggest they could impress in Everton’s appealing set of early fixtures.

Fantasy Football Scout members can view that data in the Members’ Area and also read our full analysis of it below to help them pick the best possible FPL team this season.

  People who rate him highly are just over rating him. Having said that, he is a good squad player to have. Can play numerous positions, never complaints about game time, willing to track back to help the defense when needed, ball carrier in the middle of the park, goal output has increased leaps and bounds this season.
  
  I won't lie. I wanted him out last summer, as a United fan, but he's proved me wrong. He was brilliant for around the festive period and was decent after that.A good

  Next season is pivotal for them. They need to win something (even a domestic cup) or players will start getting their heads turned.

    GK & defence will be a mess until Conte situation is sorted - Alonso.
    
    Alonso(Mendy), Robbo, Cedric,
    Salah, Siva, Siggy
    Aguero, Firmino
    
    The base of it, basically City & Liverpool!

      Have you read this?
      It’s an interesting read and there’s a section giving a compelling argument that having Salah and Firmino isn’t optimal strategy.

  I poured over those blogs for hours. The first one has prompted me to select a squad that goes big at the back and midfield, and light up top. That contradicts the second one with 3 budget defenders, but since nearly all the combos include BOU in whose defence I have no faith, it wasn't hard to let that one go!

Just made huge changes to my draft. I'd appreciate any thoughts on it. Thank you in advance!

Here it is:

Pickford
Mendy Robertson Daniels
Salah(c) Eriksen(vc) Dilva Jota
Firmino Zaha Arnie

Speroni | Cairney Cedric Peltier

  I quite like it. Having no backup goalie maybe the only issue. Mine is very similar instead I’m going with a 11.0 forward but leaves me with only 6.0 for a 3rd forward. But I do have a playing backup goalie.

  Looks good and different without Kun.
  Arinie doesn’t have the beat fixtures though. Spurs will be without their key assets so not sure how well Eriksen will do. Mendy is a wait & watch but if he’s nailed he’s an amazing option.

    Had Kun until now. Not sure whether Dilva is nailed on.
    
    Arnie doesn't have the best fixtures but he could still go big @GW2, 4 for instance.
    
    However, I could easily switch him to Tosun.

        He’s far & away their best left sided defender/wing back, way above Delph & Danilo & better than Sané at that role, I think he’ll be very nailed, a potential great FPL pick with high upside. If he had set pieces he’d be up there with Alonso, but as it is, should score very highly

        As in you agree or disagree?
        
        A fit Mendy starts 2 league games out of 3, on average. But not 3 if Delph is fit imo.

        Delph is a utility player. He did great last season and that's where it ends. He won't compete with Mendy for LB/LWB

        You're forgetting Delph is primarily a midfielder. He was a mere placeholder for Mendy because of an emergency. Mendy is up and running now; so he's the first choice. There's a reason why City paid that amount for him; because he can defend and bomb forward like no other fullback in Europe. Delph might get odd games here and there in the league, might be first choice for the cup games too but that's about it.

        Doesnt really matter what he initially is - and I know he is a mid.
        
        Pep used him as a LWB, it worked so he knows he can do it again, and will from time to time.

  Having no premium forward is dangerous if one goes off. Only one (C) option in Salah is also dangerous.
  Eriksen is a no-go imo, with how many of his teammates are fatigued/not starting after the WC.
  Rest is good 🙂

      Just don't go back to DDG again, a premium GK is never worth it. DDG was only better value than Lössl for the first 9 GW's last season, and he was cheaper then

Coleman

So after all the talk of how amazing he would be as wingback in a 343 style formation this article completely rubbishes that. Shows it's likely to be a back 4 with a poor defensive manager.

Are people still backing him heavily?

  Not sure what the article says but he looks the best option at the back for Everton just now. Watford were poor defensively under Silva, can’t remember how he was at Hull.
  
  Personally I don’t think Everton will keep many clean sheets but Coleman has good attacking potential.

    I had gone the same route as the article suggests - 4.5m placeholder for whoever shows up as the first choice second CB in that range through pre season.
    
    If he is used as a full back with people like bolasie and Walcott ahead of him it's likely he'll be involved in the attacks but not the man delivering the final killer balls as often as if he was wing back.

  Silva has managed some shite teams and done good things with them.He has never had a fullback with the caliber that Coleman has.
  
  Maybe he opted for certain formations to suit the players he had at his disposal?
  
  Only 4.4% of teams have Seamus among their ranks and he is only been backed "heavily" by fpl managers in the know which should tell you something,

    I guess we can monitor over pre season to see what system he plays and decide, at wingback I think he could be worth a look but not as a full back at that price. Especially since Silva won't guarantee clean sheets.
    
    We say fpl managers in the know but is that confined to the posters on here or do you know that from other sources?
    
    Not having a dig but I'm new to the site and from what I've seen its common for communities to convince themselves on a player and everyone to join that thought process. That and he was a favourite on here previously so it could be a lot of nostalgia.

      Even if he is playing in a 4 at the back he still has managed to get forward and contribute with assists and an odd goal in the past.
      
      I don't use any other fpl forum and really don't even take any notice of anyone on this one but there are some good shrewd managers around here and i have happened to spot Coleman in a few of their drafts.
      
      I know these kind of places can be big echo chambers and you are dead right the always be skeptical of a cosy consensus developing.
      
      Any player could be considered a nostalgia pick if he fails to live up to past exploits.Who knows after a few weeks Salah might look like a nostalgia pick.

        I guess that's an advantage I don't have yet with being new and being able to know what managers past records and achievements are to follow their tips so fair enough.
        
        He's definitely on my watch list but I just wanted some convincing from those who are big on him.
        
        With Salah I don't think it's as risky as taking someone over nostalgia of a couple seasons ago like Coleman or Daniels. Especially Coleman after his injury.

    I can't say I watched much of Everton late on last season and as far as FPL he never sparked.
    
    That could be down to big Sam being a defensive coach who doesn't give him much freedom to get forward from the back though.

  but yea he's essential to Wolves' success. Personally on Helder Costa for 5.0 who plays on the opposite wing to Jota. No clarity over penalty takers hinders Jota' appeal for that price IMO.

        Did you watch Walcott play last season? Kamara is just not a good player and plays for a poor team and likely to be stuck out wide. Mkhi has shown nothing since he left Dortmund apart from his first few games at Utd.

Good effort by England. We don't have great players and semi-final is a good result. Maybe the lesson is to make substitutions earlier when we can see the flow is turning against us.
