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.

    Took some advice.... see what u think now, give me ur worst

    Pickford 4.0
    Robbo Bavies Bennett Cedric 4.0
    Salah Dilva Mahrez Jota 4.5
    Auba Tosun King

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Like it but not too sure about Spurs

        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        i agree, went Bavies for now but ideally want Azpi, can't find the extra £ tho and could potentially do Bavies -> bellerin when rose is back and arsenal fixtures improve

    Kane today same as KDB yesterday a good example of why its very optimistic to expect these deep WC players to start playing at the start of the season. Knackered.

    1. DJDave1979
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Planning the first few weeks without these players seems sensible to me.

    2. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      some players yes spurs cannot afford to rest 10 players that are still in the world cup or united 7 players city prob only team that have a big enough squad to let all players still involved a rest

      1. DJDave1979
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Spurs have a major problem. They can't rest all those players but they can't afford not to either.

        1. Norman Conquest
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          they prob might scrape a team together i should imagine rose and eriksen will start the season dembele and dier might start too the rest will drift in from gw2 onwards

  3. Bad Kompany
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Thoughts on Willian? Sarri played 4-3-3 at Napoli and he is their second best winger after Hazard

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      tempting, but have to wait and see if they sign anyone else to give him competition. Plus there is already Siggy/Ramsey/Mkhi in that price bracket to contend with

      1. Bad Kompany
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Planning on an early wc so won't be starting with any Arsenal due to their tough fixtures. Already have Tosun and don't want to double up. Even if they sign someone else Hazard might miss the first few weeks so he might play anyway.

    2. Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Willian Mahrez Son
      Not going there again. Ruined my FPL last season and cost me my ML

    3. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Willian and Fabregras could reemerge as excellent assets under the new manager.

      1. Bad Kompany
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Yup. We just need one of them to be nailed. Also Alonso still looks like a good assest under him

        1. FPL Virgin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          It looks like Alonso will push on and overlap but he'll never play centre forward like he did under Conte.

  4. olly:)
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Pickford is the only deep wc player i am planning to have, he will definitely start gw1. I'm an everton fan and we literally have no other option

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Their backup is 4.0 anyway

  5. Little Frank
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Ederson Hamer
    Mendy Coleman Robertson Lowton Cedric
    Salah Mane Mkhi Cairney Chalobah
    Aguero Tosun Wood

    Boom.

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Like it

  6. windowview
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Can't believe I've already solved it:

    Pickford - Lossl
    Bertrand - Yedlin - van Anholt - Bellerin - Dunk
    Sane - Eriksen - Mkhitaryan - Mane - Cairney
    Zaha - Tosun - Aubemeyang

    Thoughts?

    1. F4L
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      no top 4 defence = problems in my eyes anyways.

    2. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Who are you going to captain gw 1?

      1. windowview
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Debating, but pretty sure it'll be Sane

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Get someone else over Yedlin. Newcastle fixtures are tough

  7. Stephenpala94
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Question would anyone know how many entrants there are in McDonald’s World Cup fantasy just trying to figure out how well in doing in regards to the full number

    1. Klopptomist Scott Jelly
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Over 1.5m definitely

    2. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      1.8 mill

    3. Lemonhead
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Just posted this below - hadn't seen this question! it's 1,892,537. How are you doing?

      1. Stephenpala94
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Surprised myself to be honest haha 45702

  8. Henryyy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Who is your favourite playing 4.5 mid and 4.5 forward atm?

    Think Quaner and Stephens is nailed?

    1. TallestJohn
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Maybe Chalobah but would need to check on him. Højbjerg got a bit of playing time towards the end of the season, could be decent if he plays this season.

      That Kamara from Fulham up front but only because they barely have 11 players lol.

    2. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      probably stephens and kamara but wouldn't start either they are just bench fodder incase someone doesn't start

    3. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Cheers guys

      Just looking for a 2 pointer to come in if needed

  9. LanMi
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Any suggestions?
    Mc Carthy-Fabianski
    Daniels-Schelotto-van Aanholt-Ward-Douglas
    D.Silva-Eriksen-Richarlison-Willian-Sigurdsson
    Zaha-Lukaku-Firmino
    3-4-3 here

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      without being to rude for a team that doesn't have salah it looks quite bad
      mccarthy will he play they just signed a new keeper plus southampton quite bad defensively willian could still be sold lukaku might not start gw1 spurs will struggle due to loads of players still at wc defence pretty weak too

  10. Big Jono
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Heres my current team to start the season with. Yes I have ignored the mighty bournemouth, palace, and southampton defences everyone seems to be in love with

    DDG

    Alonso Valencia Mendy Robertson Azpil

    Jota Salah(c) Gross

    Tosun Aguero(vc)

    Bench: Boruc, Cairney, Chalobah, Kamara

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      quite like your first 11 beast of a defence

      1. Big Jono
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Might change it up once WC players all back but wont be going less than 4 premiums in defence all season. Season long its guaranteed points.

        1. Norman Conquest
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          no doubt we will all change our teams several more times ha ha

    2. DJDave1979
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Like it. I'm also going big in defence.

    3. the cromulent one
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I've been tinkering with something similar: a 5-2-3 with no defender under 5.5m.
      Seriously tempting. I don't know if I'll follow through on it, though.
      It's tough, if you want Salah, then almost every other player needs to be a "value" pick.

      1. Big Jono
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        With Salah though you only need one other captaincy option really. Other than that yea value it has to be. My defense above gives me a chubby though!

  12. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    1st time posting RMT. So, thoughts?

    Hennessey Patricio
    Smalling Coleman Mee Daniels Peltier
    Salah Mahrez Fraser McArthur Ayite
    Aguero Auba Tosun

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      will hennessey play they just signed Guaita

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Will monitor that one, but except that?

        1. Norman Conquest
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          to be honest i don't know who will be first choice with their keepers

  13. Emiliano Sala
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Why so many teams with mendy?
    How do you know he's gonna start?

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      nobody knows but if he does you will want him in your team

    2. Big Jono
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Hes their only left wingback, Pep paid a gazillion dollars for him and hes vital to peps system

      1. the cromulent one
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        So vital that they ran away with the league last year without him!
        But yeah, IF he starts regularly then I'll want him.

  14. Regin
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    sterling (11m) or sane (9.5) to start the season?

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      sane been rested sterling still in a hotel bar in russia

  15. Bad Kompany
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Any news on Trippier’s injury? Does anyone know how serious it was? Hope he’s well but if he isn’t Autier looks like a good option

    1. Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      looked like a groin strain still a month to go yet plenty of time for updates

      1. Bad Kompany
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah he was holding his groin. Hopefully we’ll be given a timetable at some point still plenty of time though

    2. _Greg
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Can't get Tripper in FPL unfortunately. Nailedness biggest factor. No idea what to do with City players. might start without. Feel like Sane good for gwk1 then who knows.

  16. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    If only England reached the final we might have been able to squeeze in a holiday on Monday

  17. Ghost Gooner
    • 12 Years

    Looked good in the games he got to play last season. He is in my team from gw1

        Cheers mate.

  19. Bardo9
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone else excited to bring in T. Hazard and Batshuyai for the 3rd place game? I bet they’ll start and will be wanting to impress the Belgium FA.

    1. A Betting Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Absolutely yes, Batshuayi captain for me if he starts

  20. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Do we reckon kane will play next match?

    1. Vamos Los Celeste
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      i do

  21. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Lukaku or KDB to start next game?

    1. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Wait for teamsheets. Doubt first teamers will play

      1. Scratch
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        The last few 3rd place playoffs have yielded more or less full strength teams.

        1. Ghost Gooner
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Season starts earlier and transfer window closes before season starts so I doubt clubs will want their players in a low stakes game

  22. Kloppen Schloppen
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Here’s my 442

    Ederson / 4.0
    Alonso / Bailly / Robbo / VVD / 4.0
    Salah / Sane / Rambo / Cairney / 4.5
    Kun / Tosun / 4.5

    How’s it looking? 442

  23. Scratch
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Is this site usable again now that England are out? has the level of smug dissipated

    1. Wakanda
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      they have went home, sir

    2. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      they only seem smug to those that are jealous because their team didn't make the finals, why would England fans be smug when they've made a whole 2 semi finals since 1966

    3. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      You missed the hour after the loss. The smugness turned to bitterness and anger

  24. robdag
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    How's this looking?

    Ederson
    Coleman, VVD, PVA,
    Salah, Sane, Gross, Jota,
    Firmino, Tosun, Zaha

    Subs: Speroni, Cairney, Daniels, Cedric

    1. Kloppen Schloppen
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      it’s good but you’re a few moves away from trying to get Auba it Kun if you wanted.

    2. child of God
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Not bad bt personally wouldn't have both salah and firmino

  25. vartshk

    Feels good to be back. Going full "talisman" this year. Suggestions welcome!

    1. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      first one would be to explain what full talisman means
