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

Probably not the wisest given there are so many good £4.5m & £5m options out there

No worse than doing so with Huddersfield at the start of last season.

Spreading yourself a bit thin. You might HAVE to play them both if somebody is unexpectedly dropped elsewhere. Would not like that much.

Douglas is a free-kick specialist. I would keep him.

It’s just casuals

At the moment it's only because I like the loophole of having 4 players from the same team. It probably won't be the case come the beginning of the season.

A record £60m signing that wasn't involved in the world cup seems certain to start their season

Cos he's amazing

Sterling wont start the season.
I prefer to spend 11ish on Aubam than on the rotation risks Aguero and Jesus.

I want some City attack considering how irresistible their fixtures are from gw2.

So it’s between Sané and Mahrez.

Due to assumption that the other player needs time to get ready after wc. But not a sure thing imo.

A

B if Willian nails place in Chelsea front 3

Just casuals have drafted Mahrez, and you are asking about 3x wolves defense?

6. Really like your defence but I’m not keen on the forward line at all.

6

Really like your back line. I got 4 of them (Wan-B instead of Tomkins).

BUT dont like the Lamela, Kenedy, Wood and Austin picks

You looking to play four at the back? I'd want to downgrade One of your defenders and upgrade one of the strikers to a 7. Like the GKs - i have the same. (and four of your def)

7

That back 7 is a horror show

lol

Not a fan, far too many players that might not even play. You’d not get many points from that back line.

if those two teams kept cleanies v non top 6 teams they'd be way higher up the table

I like the logic.

Genuinely if you feel it’s the way don’t let others talk you out of it. You’ve given good logic and it’s the kind of move that can win you fpl

This isn't how you use a rotation strategy

Abysmal

Basicly that rotation sounds good first. But when you look at it closer, wolves start with good run of fixtures and Newcastle after that. So not for me. If Dubravka was 4.5 I would have gk situation solved though.

Your keepers won’t even play! Doesn’t matter if they have good fixtures or not! Must be a joke

If you are thinking of the Palace/Newcastle strategy, I’d recommend that you actually look at their fixtures. There are better ways to execute on the strategy than the one you are suggesting or the most common one others are suggesting right now.

As good as given form last season

Ive done some research and I think he is. What does your research say?

Yes

yeah by what I've gathered from intense research

If all play for season start Willian then Martial then Mkhitaryian

None of them. Wasnt that hard to be fair...

Ramsey!

(then Willian, then Martial)

And Mkhi at the bottom or just after Ramsey depending on if he plays

I would say so.

I like Silva if nailed buy who knows

Riyad

Kamara and Masuaku are the other subs

Scenes when most of them finish above you.

Do it this way instead:

View: Midfielders
Sorted by: Total score
With a maximum price of: 5.0

Check the first name, and realize that everyone who thinks they are going to find a hidden gem - Cairney or Hughes or Kenedy or Costa or Wilshere or McArthur or Pritchard - should probably just get Kante instead. Maybe the casuals know something we don't.

Will Hughes, Kennedy & Ralls

I'm with Hughes atm.

If I were you, I'd downgrade Pog to Ramsey and spend .5 elsewhere.

Wilshere, hughes or stretch to the 5.5 bracket

Gambling on gray myself at 5.5. mill

McArthur, VLP, Hughes. To name a few.

I like a couple 6.5 strikers as much as Tosun and have favorable fixtures.

Would upgrade Daniels. Not sure I would be excited to get 17/18 points for 18/19 price. Do you think he’s going to get better with age?

I’d wait and see on Pogba. I like the price and potential to work higher up the pitch with Fred and Matic manning the double pivot. I just think you can wait and see. Particularly with likely post-WC rest.

Overall, I’d look to get more in the XI with security of starts and less risk of rotation.

If Salah scores a brace in gw1, how would you re-configure the team to fit him in?

yeah I'd say so but I have no evidence to prove it

You have a lot of time on your hands Deulo, I'll give you that.

all this and no Salah

Wan Bissika isn't nailed enough to be considered part of a rotation IMO. Find the 0.5 for Tomkins

There are a few things that can happen:

- The premium teams keep a lot of clean sheets and the Watford/Palace teams don't. If you've gone for premium defenders, you'll do well.
- The premium teams keep a lot of clean sheets and the Watford/Palace teams also keep a lot of clean sheets. Nobody misses out too much, but slight upper hand to the cheap defence teams, as they'll have invested in better midfielders and attackers.
- There are very few clean sheets for any teams. Slight upper hand to the cheap defence teams, as they'll have invested in better midfielders and attackers.

However, you can flip the argument on its head and apply the same logic to the midfielders/attackers. Maybe Salah, Aubameyang, Firmino, Sane, Mahrez all fail miserably and the cheap ones like Jota, Cairney, Wood, Tosun flourish. In that case, my argument doesn't make too much sense. 🙂

PVA and Coleman may be fixture proof due to their offensive inclination - you dont want to bench them.

I like PVA, Coleman and Cedric in isolation, but I don’t know that I want them to comprise 60% of my defense. If I’m investing money in my defense, I want more nailed defenders from top 6 sides. I know that there is risk of rotation, but I think in the next month we’ll learn more and you can assemble an expensive, defense with top 6 representation.

It's either A or B with someone other than Daniels.

I'm with A atm though.

What in the world..

Spoiler alert: They won't even bid for him. He's way past his best. That's just another transfer rumour being churned out by the rumour mill.

Right....

A

B I think but close. Mkhi can still go missing

B if you can rotate Fab with another 4.5

I prefer B

B with Ramsey

Alot of B's......

A

have to agree

Which or who was first?!?

Sørloth of the Crystal Palace

the charity shield should give us a lot of clues

who is he?

I imagine because people are turning to Southampton for a cheap nailed defender for one of the last spots, for 5.0 I'd want someone from a better team personally.

60%

Agreed. He also made an article about rotating Ward yesterday, which will soon find out was a complete waste of time once Alisson signs. Think he needs to take his pills.

He probably willl before deadline... I just think he is tinkering with different options to find value. I also think he will sell him again at some point, when the world cup players are fit to fight. Thats my plan at least

It staggers me that people can't believe such a thing. It's hardly a maverick move, and last year I had this https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2017/10/01/dugout-discussion-newcastle-vs-liverpool/?hc_page=30#hc_comment_16636194

A

Was trying to answer mysticmac17, but failed

Ederson over DDG or Mendy over Azpi and you could upgrade King to one of the 7.0 strikers while still keeping your .5 itb.

I like your team overall.

Maddison seems a popular choice on here but I know nothing about him

I'm gambling on gray having a great season hopefully more game now with mahrez gone

As far as I know Maddison is injured at the moment. Pereira may be a value long term but not right now. Hard schedule, also Vardy and Maguire are uncertain for the opening few rounds

I like Maddison, but I'm currently with Jota as my 6.5 mid

Pereira is in my current draft

great fixtures at the start, rotates well with the rest of the defs and could nick a few goals + assists from RB

Maddison seems interesting , i have him on one of my teams in the Sky game 7.6mil

also interested in Maddison but I'd give him time to get used to the prem

this is a great link if you need help: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17dLoQ00zPNhNzYh71_sTkCMwEEz9cqsP3ZYFkQtaTPc/edit#gid=1637026202

Begovic + Ryan is the best pairing in terms of fixtures

although my favourite combo is Foster + Patricio
