Community Round-up: World Cup Fantasy and FPL divide attention

What happened to him?

Don't get drawn in by new signings.

Except for the keeper - great team

... I wouldn’t by defensive assets from Pool. Was that your point?

is mendy nailed tho?

Waiting till line ups released..

Southgate

"It won't be exactly the same starting 11, but we want ideally to make as few changes as possible. There are one or two injuries, one or two with a bit of illness.

Lots of active managers panicking over non-playing big name players. I can see that happening.

I have a feeling FPL Towers will 'rig' it - prices generally don't fall much in the first few weeks and I can see them freezing them early doors.

Is that a dig at Auba or Kun?

Salah only one in my team over 10m.

Definite yes.

Tbf they only really need to score big points for as long as you intend to keep them.

I think Silva will buy a new CB.

williams

Pretty Solid

Nice team.i prefer tosun over zaha but that just my opinnion.

Yeah but you have 5 transfers.

You’ll be fine.

What transfers you planning?

I’m going heavy French defence with Pogs and Griezmann. Maybe Meunier or Vrsaljko to make up the numbers.

Then Batshuayi as a punt up front

I’m still on my auto complete team and most my friends in my whatsapp are too.

There is no point doing your team this early.

It's autocomplete I'm afraid

I've pencilled him as a place-holder until Hazard and/or De Bruyne return. Should be same time as Lukaku and Rashford return too. Let's see where and how he plays in the friendlies.

Doesn't appeal to me under Mourinho - but can see why people might want to punt on him.

Would rather put the money towards Aubameyang.

unlikely he'll justify 10.5 with that suckerer of life at the helm but with so many doubts over premium assets for gw1 he's a good punt

Plays under mourinho, doesn't matter how good he is he won't be worth 8 mill. Remember Pogba's domination for Juventus and all the hype? Now look at him in FPL.

Everyone seems to forget this for some reason.

Should be about 9.0.

Nah he’ll be fine.

Let's see if he gets 90 mins pre-season or just 45 min cameos.

What’s so good about Tielemans?

Pretty sure these patch predictions haven’t been so great 😉

hashtags are for social media

He’d be crazy to play Jesus ahead of him.

If I hear any doubts in his pressers as to his starting role, he’s gone.

if you want certain don't go with Pep, if you want explosive striker on pens playing for the best team in the county then go with kun

1 easily.

Thats a close call, I've got Auba and really think he's gonna smash it this season, but all round 1 is more sensible.

If Zaha stays fit he will play 38 PL games a season and score a lot of points - probably 160pts+ which is good for a 7.0m fwd.

The question mark is over Mahrez and Aguero and their playing time. If Mahrez became nailed he would be gold IMO.

kun more likely to play

Can't believe I'm reading this.

Kun+mahrez+7m

pva davies for bailly Douglas

I’d swap no4 for a proven PL player from a solid defensive unit like Burnley.

Douglas to PVA and you have my starting defence atm!

Walker
Stones
Otamendi
Mendy
Robertson

Bailly is gone.

A. Can see vast improvement under Silva, worth the punt with EVEs good run of fix!
B. One to watch.
C. Not from the start.
D. Could be, kindly priced, but not for me to start with.

Wouldn't touch any apart from TAA if looks to be nailed.

Walcott is 6.5 if you want Everton/a 6.5 player.

Think Morata and Hazard might be on the way out- so I'd steer clear from them apart from maybe Azp...and even then Courtois looks to be going as well.

Siggy has pedigree and could thrive under Silva, easy swap to Ramsey or Mkhiki in couple of gw's if not

Yes but id wait

No

No

Siggy has potential, but happy to start with just a Coleman and monitor situation.

Currently punting on Jota. But recognise it is a "fun" punt.

Wouldn't think so - World Cup hangover, competion for places and his age mean he'll probably be rotated. much prefer Robertson.

Morata has potential - but want to see what happens in pre-season. No idea where he fits into his new manager's plans.

Think Sigurdsson can do big things this year. On free kicks and should play as the ‘diamond’ behind the striker. If on pens, a godsend.

Wait and see. See Wolves surviving though, so will probably be good.

Not in the first few weeks.

Could be a bargain. See how preseason goes.

Deulofeu -> Cairney
Wilson -> Wood

WIlson, nah.
Prob wouldn't fancy playing both Daniels & Cedric, defence a little weak.

Pretty good. Don’t like Ederson really at that price, and takes away the option for 3 MC outfielders.

why not just try some combos there are no rules

Can't say, could have a team with just Salah over 10 mill and (c) him every week last year and probably get a high finish.

3 or 4 i reckon

https://www.premierleague.com/news/446251

Haven't seen it, but work on around 20 points per £m, so 260 here.

2pm bst

valencia ain't worth 6.5 so him

Neves to a 4.5 mid

I would definitely downgrade Alonso.

New manager is likely to play 4 at the back, which does not play to Alonso's strength in both real world and FPL. Indeed, might actually suit Emerson better.

Many thanks

can't see him winning he'll be stiffer than fpl virgin watching the scoutcast

Too much Croats imho, Mandzu > Hazard paid by getting rid of Rakitic.

I think Deulofeu has the highest potential. He's nailed in my team right now

I don't think there currently is at 5.5 - but I do suspect Cairney is a little over-hyped.

Will Hughes of Watford could be interesting at 5.0. Kenedy decent once his fixtures clear. Costa of Wolves worth monitoring.

so the more expensive players need to score more points. Mimd blowing

you're doing a pretty good job yourself

It’s wound them up alright. It’s done the manager’s team talk for them.

Then we inevitably lose.

And they throw abuse at us non-stop for a month.

It isn’t fun.

Is there another country that most other countries worldwide want to see fall short due to their arrogance, cockiness and loutish behaviour?
Australia doesn't even come close.
