Introduction to the Article Type

With so many RMTs on site, we’re going to start collecting them in these RMT Community Articles.

To start, site regular and moderator Spencer has given us his team, and some explanations of his choices. Feel free to comment on his team.

This is also a place for you to post your team, and please respond to a few others while you’re at it!

Mods have been alerted, and will spend some time on these pages responding.

Let’s try to keep the main article pages free from RMTs!

Spencer’s RMT

Fabianski – Bettinelli

Mendy – Robertson – Luiz – Boly – Tomkins

Salah – Mahrez – Pedro – Deulofeu – Stephens

Aguero – Arnautovic – Zaha

Goalkeepers

  • 9.0 on goalkeepers.  Fabianski with FPL pedigree.  Unsure on Bettinelli, but rotation with Fabianski looks good.
  • First 10 games: CRY – BOU – BUR – WLV – eve – WAT – eve – bha – cda – BOU

Defence

  • Mendy/Robertson/Luiz/Boly/Tomkins
  • Most I’ve spent in defence from the start – I normally play just one big hitter and 4 rotating cheapies.
  • All defenders with potential for attacking points.
  • Mendy a risk worth taking, looked brilliant before his injury.
  • Luiz a risk, so will keep a close eye on the Community Shield.
  • Tomkins looks to be the best 4.5 for me.

Midfielders

  • Got to start with Salah.  Can always downgrade.
  • Mahrez was brilliant at Leicester.  Playing with better players at Man City, I can only see him getting better.  Another one to look out for in the Community Shield.
  • Pedro is a risk, but if he’s nailed he will get attacking points.
  • Watford fixtures look favourable.  Deulofeu looked grerat when on loan from Barcelona last season.
  • Stephens is my 4.5 bench player.

Forwards

  • Aguero is world class.  Possibly some doubts on whether he starts or not.  Keeping an eye on the Community shield.  Will swap to Aubameyang if there are doubts.
  • Arnautovic ended last season in spectacular fashion and this has continued into pre-season.  Made the mistake of not getting him in last time around.
  • Zaha also reclassified as a forward this season.  Does this mean more bonus points?  Doubts over who his strike partner will be at Crystal palace, but I see him returning points regardless. Will need to reconsider if he moves.

1.0 itb to use in an emergency.  eg upgrade Mahrez to Mane, or Deulofeu to Doucoure.

Conclusion

The Key here is flexibility.  Setting price brackets for positions and then finding the right players to fit in.  eg I don’t know if Pedro is the right 6.5 to have, but can easily switch to Jota, Richarlison, or whoever else.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Where have I gone wrong, and where have I gone right? What do you suggest I change?

    If anyone care to share their opinion, that would be great 🙂

    Ederson - 4.0
    Robertson - Bailly(?) - Jagielka* - Tarkowski - AWB
    Salah - Mane - Pedro - Richarlison - Cairney
    Kun - Arnie - Zaha

    Will monitor Pedro and get rid of Jagielka if they get a new CB.

      Burnley going further in Europa qualifying might be an issue for Tarkowski. I do like the rest though.

      1. Bleach †
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah but thought that full backs might get rotated more. Was considering dumping him for Keane and getting rid of Jags.

          Just wondering if the whole team will suffer with the extra games, not just the personnel.

          Getting rid of Jagielka is a good idea imo.

    2. Bulldogs FC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Lots of better options at 4.5 than Jagielka.
      I would get rid of Bailly as well and avoid Utd atm.

      1. Bleach †
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Who do you recommend? Might get rid of Speroni for a fodder, then I could get Tomkins..

    3. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Too much uncertainty defensively. You could have 1 playing defender once players return from WC, Europa League games and then will WB and Jags play?

      Salah and Mané double up leaves you with just 2 captain options: Salah & Agüero.

      Arnie bad fixtures too, so not my favoured but definitely understandable pick.

      1. Bleach †
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        WB is a 4.0 fodder anyway, agree with the Jagielka part. Arnie is fixture-proof imo. Thanks

        1. Zladan
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          WB is the same for me, although he could definitely be called into action for you if Tark rested and Jags dropped. Probably better to pick nailed consistent starters if you submit to a fodder.

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years

      Nice

    5. jia you
      • 7 Years

      Very nice!

    6. LegendMoon
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Sorry but apart from Robertson I think your whole defence is a risk

  2. El Cube
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Cedric vs Duffy (Who should I bench?)
    &
    Thought on my Set & Forget team?

    Ederson
    Bellerin / Lovren / Cedric
    Sanchez (VC) / DeBruyne / Eriksen / Cairney
    Aubameyang (C) / Firmino / Arnautovic

    Bench : Boruc / Chalobah / Duffy / Wan-Bissaka

    Cheers

    1. Bunk Moreland
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      For the whole season? If that's what you mean by "set and forget", I think Hazard will outscore Sanchez. I think Sane will as well actually, and maybe Mahrez. I would boost the bench also if you are not going to do any transfers.

      1. El Cube
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah, It is for the entire season,where I am not allowed to make any transfer and change my starting 11. I join a league with that rule.

        Thanks for the tips. I will think about bringing Hazard in for Sanchez and downgrading KDB to Mahrez/Sane.

        1. Bunk Moreland
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          Cool. I think KDB is a great pick for that format though, but you do need a strong bench (including a playing GK) as there will be times where 3 players are injured, suspended or dropped.

  3. SADIO SANÉ
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    ahh go on then - not done one for a while - currently on:

    Patricio (Button)
    Robertson Mendy Shaw (Wan-B Peltier)
    Salah Mane Ozil Pedro (Costa)
    Auba Arnie Austin

    1. Rotation's Alter Ego
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      No City attacking assets? Brave!

      Austin is a cheeky shout, will he produce good returns? No tadic now of course.

      Otherwise, like it 😉

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        cheers - yeah I had Mahrez and Sane this whole time but I'm really unsure of gametime - I can easily see Ozil becoming one of them by next week though - not sure I need to start with 2 Arsenal attackers

        1. Zladan
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          I’d say 1 Arsenal attack is more than sufficient. You could easily go without.

    2. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Did you forget how many goals City scored last year?

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Will KDB start the season?

    3. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Very nice I like the Ozil pick but Austin isn’t 1st choice striker anymore I think gab is

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        cool, I'll keep an eye out - Wood/Mitro decent alternatives

    4. Bunk Moreland
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I think Ozil may have a strong season without internationals, but he is not a big game player. So for the first two matches I don't think he will return. From gw3 I want him too.

      Otherwise there is a risk of you playing 10 men occassionaly with that defense, but I am sure you are aware of it and consider it worth the risk to get those 7 attackers.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        cheers - yeah I may start with Bilva/Dilva/maybe Mahrez instead of Ozil. Yeah I'm fairly set on Robertson and Mendy, Shaw would be transferred out as soon as he gets his first benching (but I'm hoping he gets a proper chance this time). I have faith in Wanny-B off the bench 😀

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

      Good team. Depends on whether Mendy gets to start GW1 or not. Not too keen on Ozil. Saw him play live last week against PSG and despite his goal, he was more like trying to assist the assister during the time he was on the pitch.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        yeah, he assisted the assister against Chelsea too - I'll keep an eye on Mendy and maybe/probably start with a City mid instead of Ozil and reassess GW3/4 - cheers

    6. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      GW 1 starters worse case

      Patricio
      Robertson Mendy
      Salah Mane Costa
      Auba Arnie

      Just 8 😉

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        woahh, surely not 😉 I'll keep an eye on the dodgy ones for clues next week

  4. StoichkovFPL
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Ederson | Button
    Robertson | Bailly | Tomkins | Cedric | WB
    Salah | Mahrez | Richarlison | Cairney/Hughes | Gunnarsson
    Aguero | Firmino | Arnautovic

    0.5 ITB, Dont like that 4th mid option..Fit Deu would be perfect. Also can make Cedric>Peltier but what can I do with that 1 mil as no good mids up to 6.0mil.

    1. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Similar to mine.

      Mahrez->Silva to save 0.5m
      Get Jota for 6.5m

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

        Thanks but Silva will be a masive rotation as he is old and even Pep said he will play less and Mahrez will be one of the best players imo

        1. Eden Wizard
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          "He is old" hahahahahaha
          How much did he age since the world cup?

          I know the interview says he's winding down but that should still mean 25 games, didn't he sign another year contract after all?

  5. Gregor
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Hey Spencer, nice team, looks like Fabri is the Fulham keeper now though. I’d also be a bit worried about Deulofeu’s fitness, got injured last season and doesn’t seem to have played much in pre-season.

    1. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Thanks Gregor. Especially the info about Fabri - I had no idea!

  6. Carcetti
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Really like it! Especially with 1m in the bank.

  7. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Which 6.5 fwd:

    A) King
    B) Wood

    1. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Wood went off injured yesterday with a "tight hip". I think he was a fantastic pick but can't be arsed now with all his injuries.

      King.

  8. Rhinos
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    we currently have one player the same so i reckon you're in good shape

    1. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Thanks Rhinos! I need to get more maverick with my choices, but probably later on in the season. Safe and steady for now.

  9. Bunk Moreland
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Patricio

    Azpilicuta / Van Dijk / Cedric

    Salah / Mane / Bilva / Jota

    Aguero / Arnie / King

    4.0 Gunnarson Tomkins AWB

    1. Bunk Moreland
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      0,5 itb, considering spending it on a playing sub gk but i also like to play the same gk every match.

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Very good maybe Azpi > Rudiger for more goal threat at a lower price and keep it itb ready to jump on Bilva’s replacement in city midfield?

      1. Bunk Moreland
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers but I am not sure who the CBs will be at Chelsea, I prefer Azpi who will surely start. I am thinking Bilva can play a lot this season actually, but if I am wrong I plan to get an Arsenal mid in at the same price. What do you think about that?

    3. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      It's nice but Cedric? Ew.
      Azpi to Luiz
      Jota to Pedro
      Cedric to a 5.5 of your choice.

      1. Bunk Moreland
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        I've put a fair amount of money on Southampton to be relegated to I can't say I disagree with you... I owned Cedric for the whole of last spring and he gave me so many points, so granted, I'm a bit biased, but he is rotating with Tomkins and will only play occasionally. .

        Luiz, hmm... Do you trust him to start most matches with Christensen, Cahill and Rudiger around for just two spots?

        1. Over Midwicket
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          Sarri always plays with a ball playing CB and Luiz is the only one who can pass confidently (Cahill would be next in line but he's past it).

          1. Bunk Moreland
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 7 months ago

            OK, thanks a lot for the insight!

    4. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I have no idea about Jota tbh but it all looks pretty good to me! Pretty much the same set up as mine, looks decent. I'd probably save money on Azpi, don't expect a load of assists from him again this year

      1. Bunk Moreland
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers 🙂 No idea about Jota either but he sounds nailed, and very attacking.

        About Azpi, yeah I get that. I'd prefer Robertson but then I couldn't have Mane. Hmm..

        1. SADIO SANÉ
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          keep an eye on Luiz I guess - I'm tempted

  10. Ask Yourself
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Ederson // Button

    Rudiger Boly Robertson // Mendy AWB

    Salah Mane Bilva Hughes Costa

    Kane Arnie // Quaner

    No Aguero but kane instead whilst doubling on city defence I think will be a smart move whatddk you think?

    1. Giovanni Giorgio
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Would avoid Kane to start to tbh. England went deep in the WC and he never scores to start the season anyways

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Plays Newcastle in disaster first game and attacking Fulham in the second. If he’s likely to start he’s nearly a must for me

        1. Bunk Moreland
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          Fair point.

  11. RiskyBusiness
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Taken a few risks, just wanted to get an idea whether it was a risk too many or not?

    Ryan Steele
    Rudiger Walker Shaw Diop Wan-Bissaka
    Sanchez Mane Ozil Neves CHO
    Aguero Firmino Arnie

    Is Neves the best 5.0?
    Surely CHO is worth the risk at that price but not seen him in any teams?
    Is there a cheaper way into citys defence thats nailed every week?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      If hazard is still resting going into the start of the season he will be all over my team it’s a great shout. I’d say avoid West Ham defence as a fan as there is no nailed back line we aren’t sure who our best CBs are. Rice will probably play CDM tho at 4.5 is the best option. Love the midfield and Mané could even match Salah if he has pens.

      1. RiskyBusiness
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks for the reply, even if CHO is for a couple of weeks people will jump on the bndwagon anyway.
        Any ideas on who to get at 4.5 instead of Diop? Already got Brighton and Palace defenders. Didnt west ham pay quite a bit for Diop?

        1. Ask Yourself
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah 20m but he has looked dodgy pre season and balbuena more impressive. Wolves look like building a solid defence i’ve Gone Boly

          1. RiskyBusiness
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 7 months ago

            Yeah didnt really like wolves or west hams fixtures tbh, ill go boly thanks

  12. Dacra
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Hows this looking?

    Ederson (4.0)
    Coleman - TAA - Luiz (Doherty, WanB)
    Salah - Eriksen - Pedro - Costa (Gunnarsson)
    Aguero - Firmino - Tosun

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Great except Tosun. Any other 7m attacker will be better Everton will collapse under silva

      1. fantasticmrross
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Everton have such a good start to the season though. I might stick with Tosun to start and then stick in Arnie once West Ham's fixtures ease up

  13. Son of Alex
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Ederson | Begovic
    VVD | Luiz | Shaw | Cedric | AWB
    Salah | Mkhi | Mahrez | Schurrle | Richarlison
    Firmino | Arnautovic | Zaha

    1. Dacra
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Benching issues.

    2. Bunk Moreland
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I like the defense a lot. Ederson, VVD will get you a lot of points. Shaw and Luiz as well if they play - but maybe I'd consider going up to a nailed 6.0 and a 4,5 for security of starts, someone like Davinson Sanchez or Robertson (although you'd have to replace Firmino).

      Mkhi, will he play? I am playing Arsenal on Football manager and I just can't fit him and Ozil into the team at the same time. Emery may be a better manager than me though, I'll grant him that...

      I like Mahrez a lot, and Richarlison may get a good start to the season now that he's had his rest. Its summer too which should suit him better.

      1. Son of Alex
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Mkhi and luiz are a risk. May go for other options come GW1

        1. Bunk Moreland
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          You can have some risks though with that bench. I'm just thinking that the defense could do with one more nailed defender.

          1. Son of Alex
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 7 months ago

            Might Shift to Tomkins/Robertson(or Mendy) in place of Luiz/Shaw

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      GW1 starting 11 issues

  14. Scottc88
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Pickford
    Cedric Daniels Tomkins
    Jota salah mane Sanchez
    Austin aguero tosun

    Cairney Wan-Bis Peltier

    1. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      With clean sheets more common at the start, is it wise to go so cheap in the defender dept? As a toffee I would steer clear of Everton defense, no matter what the fixtures.
      Sanchez could get moved out wide. 10.5 is costly considering the multiple point benefits of a better defense.

  15. Eze Really?
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Is Betinelli nailed?

    1. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      • 12 Years

      Gregor tells me its Fabri who's the keeper now.

    Ederson 4.0
    Coleman Bailly Mee (Daniels AWB)
    Salah Sane Richarlison Mkhi (Stephens)
    Aguero Firmino (Quaner)

    How's she looking?

    1. kinghenry14
      • 8 Years

      wouldn't pick daniels, mee and mkhi. maybe kamara instead of quaner. otherwise very good

    2. Giovanni Giorgio
      • 10 Years

      Oh wait. Costa, not Stephens.

      Maybe Hughes or Cairney instead of Kenedy. Don't see Newcastle scoring lots of goals.

      1. kinghenry14
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        yeah cairney is my second choice after kenedy but although he has tough i think he plays more offensive than cairney and will be vital to newcastle attack

        1. kinghenry14

          tough fixtures*

      Good for a S&K team tbf but not for me.

    How can I make room for a good 4.5/5.0 defender to rotate from the bench?

    Heaton [4.0]

    R.Pereira, Mendy, Trippier [4.0, 4.0]

    Salah, Richarlison, Sessegnon, Gross, Jota

    Auba, Aguero [4.5]

    1. FPL Hitman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Downgrade Sessegnon to a 6m like Pereyra for e.g.

    2. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Sessegnon to Schurrle? Trippier looks doubtful for GW1 so could make a change there instead.

    3. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Very nice team - I'd downgrade Trippier or Heaton and upgrade one of the 4.0s personally, but that's just personal preference.

    4. kinghenry14
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      will trippier play gw1?

      1. Bleach †
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Most likely no

    5. jia you
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      A few risks there but quite interesting, like it! Lack of a bench a worry. Is Heaton fit?

    6. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I would downgrade Trippier and upgrade a 4.0

  19. jia you
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    OK then, first post of my team in the new RMT sections!
    Cityless for now but monitoring Mendy and waiting for KDB.
    Thoughts most welcome:

    Patricio
    Robertson/Azpi/PVA
    Mane/Eriksen/Sanchez/Richarlison
    Auba/Arnie/Josh
    (Stek, Odoi, Kasabele, WB)

    1. kinghenry14
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      sane+1.0 will be better than sanchez in my opinion
      otherwise good

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers, Sanchez is a placeholder for KDB, not sold on Sane myself.

    2. Bleach †
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Pretty nice, would personally downgrade PVA and upgrade Patrico but that's just my point of view..

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks, have considered downgrading him alright but prefer to go cheap as chips on GKs

    3. Hot Fuzz
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      How much ITB?
      i am just thinking if Salah does what Salah does, and get any close to last years start of the season output + %50.8 ownership and perhaps 75% - 90% captain him you might start chasing your tail from the start. I know it sucks 13 million for on guy but IMO this guy is worth it. Don't get me wrong of cause going Salahless can work and the possibility of finder different captains every week with returns is possible, but mathematically speaking its saver to start with him and if he doesn't do as good then a downgrade is an easy solution but an upgrade is a lot harder as you know. Good luck for the season my friend.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks mate and Im very undecided on this atm. Thinking Auba + Mane or Austin + Salah (plus some spare cash)

  20. RomeluStormzy
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    What about this team?

    Foster (Fabs)
    Robertson Luiz Shaw Sakho (Bamba)
    Salah Mane Mahrez Richarlison (Stephens)
    Aguero Arnie (Quaner)

    Any suggestions?

    1. jia you
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Pretty decent XI but perhaps Chalobah or Odoi punt as first sub over Stephens

      1. RomeluStormzy
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers, do you think Quaner is best forward sub?

        1. jia you
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          No, he will play very little this season I reckon. Little choice really, Kamara seems best imo.

  21. NeverGunOwen
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    How is this?

    Fabianski, Foster

    Alexander-Arnold, Shaw, Tomkins, Daniels, Peltier

    Salah, Sane, Richarlison, Pedro, Stephens

    Aguero, Firmino, Zaha

    1. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Keepers good
      Don't like defenders AA Shaw Petier rotation. Daniels good for 3 weeks only.
      Pep not happy with Sane fitness. Pedro duck or no dinner.
      Kun will he play? Firmino will he play? Zaha maybe moving.
      Too many doubts.

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

        I usually play my wildcard after the 1st Int'l break. So this team is for the first 4 weeks only.. Might change Sane tho. Thanks

  22. Eze Really?
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Fabri/Fabianski (Fabri a risk but great rotation)
    Bailly Robertson Luiz (Bednarek Wan Bisaka) Not sure of the 2 benchers starting but the expensive backline is reliable I think.
    Mane Salah Bilva Pereira Cairney (Gamble on Bilva but I think OK for 2 weeks)
    Zaha Arnie Auba (Zaha might move) (Auba and Arnie might play wide)

    I am talking myself out of the team already!

    1. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      I love that goalkeeping combo! 😉

      Maybe downgrade Cairney to a 4.5 so you can upgrade Bednarek to a 4.5 defender. I'm guessing Cairney will be on your bench most weeks anyway?

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks. Just concerned early on that I will need a good midfield sub. Thinking of dumping Perriera. You motivated the goalie choices!

        1. Spencer
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          I do like the Perriera choice tho. Watford have lovely fixtures.

          1. jia you
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 7 months ago

            Had Pereyra in my team for ages and still kindda want him but think I prefer going King/Austin over him now in a front three as the 4.5 forwards look garbage

            1. jia you
              • 7 Years
              5 years, 7 months ago

              In your team though he looks a very viable option KK

            2. Eze Really?
              • 9 Years
              5 years, 7 months ago

              I have been going back and forth with Austin. I can also upgrade a defender if I move out Zaha

  23. fantasticmrross
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Here's mine so far:
    Ederson (Boruc)
    Robertson, Mendy, Davinson Sanchez, (Wan-Bissaka, Peltier)
    Cairney, Salah, Richarlison, Sanchez, (Masuaku)
    Zaha, Auba, Tosun

    I'm thinking of going down to a 5.5 defender in exchange for Davison Sanchez and swapping in Ryan/Fabianksi for Boruc. Not too keen on not having a GK to rotate in if needed.
    Aside from that any other thoughts?

    1. Mr. Blonde
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Think tosun with Richarlison is too many eggs in the Everton basket considering their pre season form. Also, don't like no city attacking coverage, think two of their spots in defence is a waste. Personally would avoid spurs players at the start.

  24. Mr. Blonde
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Current draft below. Would love some thoughts please:

    Foster, Hamer
    Robertson, Mendy, Bertrand, AWB, Peltier
    Salah, Mane, Mahrez, Richarlison, Chalobah
    Aguero, King, Austin

    1. jia you
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Dont really like the Bertrand pick but looks very good if Austin and Mendy are starters.

      1. Mr. Blonde
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah bit of a worry with those two. I had Cedric but sounds like he's not back for GW1.

    2. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Nice if King and Austin find their old form. Like the Bertrand pick, considering also but dont seems to be popular choice.

      1. Mr. Blonde
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah I think he could be very good with saints fixtures and some set piece duties. Also, no Cedric for GW1 so he's not a runner for a strong route into the defence at 4.5.

  25. TAT
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    (5.0) - Button
    Robertson - (4.5) - Peltier - Azpilicueta - Tomkins
    Salah - Sessegnon - Jota - Sané - (Milivojevic/Jahanbakhsh/Pedro)
    Aubameyang - Quaner - Arnautovic
    (1.0 itb)

    Need some opinions on which players to consider for the spots marked with brackets. Thoughts? 🙂

  26. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    What do you think?
    Ederson (Boruc)
    Bailly Davies VVD (Tomkins Wan-Bissaka)
    Salah Mane Mata Jota Richarlison
    Aguero Arnie (Kamara)

    1. RomeluStormzy
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      Unsure on Mata now that Lukaku and Rashford are back,

      1. Langley van Gaal
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        I reckon Mata is safe for a couple of starts until Rashford is fit

  27. JBG
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    Ederson

    Daniels
    Bailly
    Robertson

    Salah
    Sánchez
    Pedro
    Bernardo Silva
    Jorginho

    Zaha
    Agüero

    Bench: Boruc, Kamara, Lowton, Wan-Bissaka

    Thoughts on my team? Have 0.5 left in the bank.

    1. Langley van Gaal
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 7 months ago

      ditch Daniels. Upgrade Jorginho to a 5.5?

      1. JBG
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 7 months ago

        The plan is to ditch Daniels after the first few weeks.

        1. JBG
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 7 months ago

          That's why I have Lowton on my bench. (Couldn't edit my first post).

  28. Langley van Gaal
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 7 months ago

    The first few games are an FLP nightmare until everyone comes back fit....so this is what I've got (need convincing to stick)

    Alisson
    Luiz Mendy Tomkins
    Salah Eriksen Pedro Mata B. Silva
    Arnie Ageuro

    I'd love Auba but I can't look past City fixtures........expecting to need a bit of midfield tinkering after GW3...

    HI Guys,

    A question I wanted to ask to all paid members here.

    I have been toying around with RMT feature since few days after becoming a member.

    a. Is it good to base the team with the ratings on RMT feature?
    b. How well does the RMT work? The best I went is the overall rating of 347.31. Is it high, medium, low? I loved the team too

  30. Dutchy

    Rate My Team

    Sanchez to KBD after 3 GW

    Foster
    Bailly Mendy TAA
    Salah Sane Eriksen Richarlison
    Firmino Zaha Arnie

    Ryan Wan B Tomkins Ward
