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.Β  Fabianski with FPL pedigree.Β  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.Β  Can always downgrade.
  • Mahrez was brilliant at Leicester.Β  Playing with better players at Man City, I can only see him getting better.Β  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.Β  Deulofeu looked grerat when on loan from Barcelona last season.
  • Stephens is my 4.5 bench player.

Forwards

  • Aguero is world class.Β  Possibly some doubts on whether he starts or not.Β  Keeping an eye on the Community shield.Β  Will swap to Aubameyang if there are doubts.
  • Arnautovic ended last season in spectacular fashion and this has continued into pre-season.Β  Made the mistake of not getting him in last time around.
  • Zaha also reclassified as a forward this season.Β  Does this mean more bonus points?Β  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.Β  eg upgrade Mahrez to Mane, or Deulofeu to Doucoure.

Conclusion

The Key here is flexibility.Β  Setting price brackets for positions and then finding the right players to fit in.Β  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?

Remember, post your RMTs below in this article. There will be another new RMT Community Article tomorrow.

    Could anyone link me a good FF rotational article, or perhaps suggest teams to look at? I'm more interested in defensive & GK rotations, thanks in advance.

      1. Chrisirwin01

        Thanks very much buddy

      B. It's a no brainer.

    Anyone considering Ings at CPL as 5.5 bench fodder to enable better defs/mids?

    1. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      5.5m a bit pricey for fodder no?

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Other forwards more likely to play who is cheaper?

    2. It’s a Knockaert
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      5.5 bench fodder?

    3. Slam
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      How does a 5.5 bench fodder enable better defs/mids?

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Upgrade 5th mid and play him

    4. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I've currently got Sorloth in that role but if Ings goes to Palace he could oust Sorloth. I'd wait to see if he start and scores but he'd be an option for me.

    5. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I've currently got Austin in at 6m as the 3rd striker, he's a slightly better prospect IMO

    6. DantheManinaPan
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Just get a 4.5 striker - are you ever going to use your third sub before Christmas?

  4. trustmeimpurple
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Who should I start out of this draft team?
    Lloris,Ryan
    Luiz,VVD,Shaw,PvA,Coleman
    KDB,DSilva,Jota,Siggy,Grob
    Arnie,Laca,Zaha

    1. It’s a Knockaert
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Bench Ryan, Coleman, jota and groß-looks good though

  5. jlorgill1
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Pickford
    Robbo Bailly Tarkowski
    Salah Eriksen DSilva Pedro Richar
    Auba Arnie

    Speroni AWB Bennet Kamara

  6. Dillonb93
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Can’t decide!
    Firmino or Mane

    1. Baberto
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Mane
      Firmino a risk for gw1

  7. Rust Cohle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Ryan
    Robertson/Mendy/Bailly/Luiz
    Salah/Eriksen/Mahrez/Richarlison
    Firmino/Arnautovic

    Button/Cairney/W-B/Quaner

    0.5 ITB

  8. ignis88
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on Shaqiri? If only he cements a starting role, 7.5 could be the steal of the season

  9. FC Barkerlona
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    3rd draft! Getting close?

    Ederson / Hamer
    Mendy / Bailly / PVA / Lovren / W-B
    Salah / Eriksen / Pedro / Jota / Cairney
    Firmino / Zaha / Arnautovic

    0.5m ITB

    1. FC Barkerlona
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      a) PVA and Lovren
      b) Tomkins and Robbo

  10. Lilac Breasted Roller
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    RMT please

    Ederson / 4.0
    Tomkins / Robertson / Mee / Wan-Bissaka / Cedric
    Jota / Chalobah / Salah / Eriksen / Costa
    Firmino / Aubameyang / Zaha

    May replace Mee with another 5.0er. May have to look for a different bench sitter than Chalobah
    Too much faith in Wolves?
    Switching Eriksen with KDB once he starts playing

    1. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Jota and Costa are as good a punts as any. There are plenty of players that could be considered at Jotas price point. Solid team. Firmino and Cedric might not be ready for GW1 so keep an eye on them.

      1. Lilac Breasted Roller
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks!

    2. Baberto
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Stable enough

  11. DanielLongo5
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    RMT: Any feedback is appreciated

    Ederson (Hamer)
    Robertson / Tomkins / Daniels (Cedric / Wan-Bis)
    Salah / Sanchez / Richarlison / Mhki (Masuaku)
    Morata / Firmino / Tosun

    Using Sanchez as a placeholder for Hazard or KDB until they come back. Let me know how you guys think this can be improved. Thanks.

    1. Baberto
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Daniels and Mkhi are at a risk of not starting
      Not a big fan of Tosun inspite of his fixtures

      1. DanielLongo5
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Aware that Mkhi may or may not start, but if he's playing in the front 3 for Arsenal at 7.0 he's a fantastic value. Also Daniels may not start because of falling out of favor or for what reason? Cheers for the thoughts

        1. Baberto
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Rico likely to start GW4 onwards unless Daniels does something special in the first three

    2. Croaker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Not seeing many points in that defence. Downgrading Morata would give more options

    3. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Daniels,Firmino and Cedric are at risk of not starting i think but other than that your team looks good.

      Just make sure to get the most up to date team news before the deadline with those players.

  12. Dillonb93
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    A) Firmino & Maddison
    B) Arnie & Mane

    1. Baberto

      B

      1. Dillonb93
        • 8 Years

        Don’t arnies fixtures worry you? I can’t see more then 2 points first week

    3. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      B

      Arnie's fixtures should not worry you too much as he has a good chance of scoring points even if WH lose.

  13. Aubameyangs of NY
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Greeting, everyone. This is my first RMT. Let me know what you think. Thanks in advance!

    Ederson (stek)
    Robbo, Bailly, Mendy, Kolasinac (if not injured), (Wan-Bissaka)
    Richarlison, Salah, Cairney, KDB (but starting with Sane), (Hudson-Odoi or Jonny?)
    Aubameyang, Arnautovic, Mitrovic

    Are my mids too punty?

    1. Croaker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Not sold on Mitro or Kola and yes midfield a bit punty, but you can’t have everything and looks good overall

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Your team looks fine and it is ok to start with one or two punts as long as you have some back up.

    RMT out of 10:
    Foster(Rotate with Fabi)

    Guys,
    Please RMT:

    Ederson | (Boruc)
    TAA | DLuiz | Tomkins | (Wan B) | (Bednarek)
    Salah | Sane | Richarlison | Sessegonon
    Auba | Firmino | Zaha

    Keep thinking about switching Sess and Sane to Miky and Mahrez, Luiz to Bailly and Auba to Aguero.

    Thanks!

    1. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Wait for team news but there is a chance that Firmino and TAA may not start the first game.

    2. LegendMoon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      You may end up with only one playing defender some weeks !

      1. FC_Dzbany
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        How you would reshape it? I think Luiz and Tomkins should be starter. I guess TAA will be rotated a lot. Thanks!

    3. LegendMoon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I agree Liz and Tomkins may b ok . Maybe play diop of West Ham or boly of wolves as they r certain starters and look like naps magnets

      1. FC_Dzbany
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers!

    4. MarkoSD
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      too much c.palace defs
      sess risky of being lb

  16. Erez Avni
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    so this is the best draft so far.

    ederson
    aspi robbo tompkins (wan cedric)
    salah mane richa pedro (masuaku)
    kun zaha arni

    I have doubts with kun (damm you pep), zaha (wants to leave?) and pedro (maybe jota is better option?)

    please RMT my doubts.......

    cheers!

    1. LegendMoon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I'm not convinced manuals and Pedro will start but I like the rest

      1. Erez Avni
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        thanks

    2. LegendMoon

      Masuako

    3. MarkoSD
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      rmt doubts:)
      kun 80% nailed
      zaha (haven't hear that)
      pedro or jota, I'll wait till pressers

      1. Erez Avni
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        thanks

  17. Scheister
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    RMT please. Hoping to turn Sanchez into KDB or Eriksen after a week or so. What do you think?

    Fab Foster
    Robbo Mendy Kabasele Doherty Wan-B
    Salah Sanchez Richarlison Jota Ward
    Kun Arnie Zaha

    1. Croaker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Looking good

    2. LegendMoon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I'm a united fan but I truly don't like the Sanchez pick, boly for Doherty maybe too

      1. Flynny
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Sanchez not worth it when mane is 1m less

        1. Scheister
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          I'd probably go Eriksen over Mane, especially with Salah already in

        2. Podge
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Sanchez is gonna rip it up

      2. Scheister
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Not even for just a week or so, eh? ...Suppose I may go Eriksen instead

      3. Scheister
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Isn't Doherty playing wing?
        Can't say I know a lot about Wolves, but they rotate well with Kabasele and Wan-B πŸ™‚

    3. LegendMoon
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Doherty is a wing back yes but boly is just a man mountain, clearances at the back and causes problems up top. Erikkson a strong pick

      1. Scheister
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        cheers

    4. MarkoSD
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      good, but I am afraid of zaha and arnie, not many goals in career

      1. Scheister
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        True, who are you trusting up top?

        1. MarkoSD
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          Austin, but he isn't nailed

          1. Scheister
            • 13 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            No, no he is not

  18. Viiksisika
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    I have this team called 'Salahless catastrophe' and now I'm gonna share it with u guys!

    Ederson | 4.0
    David Luiz | Bailly | Cedric | Wan-Bissaka | Peltier
    Sanchez | Eriksen | Mane | Richarlison | Ward
    Aguero | Morata | Austin

    With 0.5m in the bank.

    Reasoning behind not getting Salah is that I trust Sanchez and Aguero to be good captain options. If Aguero starts to rotate too much it gets tricky but then I can save this whole circus with a International break WC.

    Thoughts?

    1. Flynny
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Morata and Austin seem risky....

      I don't think the risk of you g without salah to start is worth it....

      1. Viiksisika
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        They r quite. But if Soton does play 3-5-2, he should be fine.

        Morata I rate for now. Can easily get Laca/Firmino if he doesnt do well.

    2. Sharpey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Not convinced by Sanchez...Mourinho seems to do nothing but stifle his attacker’s instincts.

      Will Cedric start...or Southampton get clean sheets? Been shocking pre-season

      1. Viiksisika
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Gotta see tomorrows game to make the decicion about cedric.

        Sanchez has looked energetic in preseason. Very big difference against end of last season. Rested and ready to go.

  19. Flynny

      Much prefer B, good solid team

      1. Flynny

        Ok thanks

  20. SiJonas
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Firmino & Richarlison
    Or
    Mitrovic & Mane??

    1. FC_Dzbany
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I would go with A.

      1. SiJonas
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks. Someone said earlier that Bobby is a doubt for GW1?

        1. FC_Dzbany
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 4 months ago

          It's possible, keep an eye on him. But in general and long run I prefer A.

    2. MarkoSD
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      a all day

    3. The Mighty Hippo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I'd say B

  21. Sharpey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    RMT please.

    Ederson/ Fabri
    Robbo Mendy Coleman Tomkins AWB
    Salah Mané Sessegnon Richarlison Jorginho
    Aubameyang Wood Austin

    Worth downgrading Jorginho to 4.5 and extra on one of forwards (maybe Mitrovic or Zaha?)

    1. MarkoSD
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      yep, attack is too light

  22. Lone Wolf FPL
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Ederson • Button
    Robertson • Bailly • Tomkins • Peltier • WB
    Salah • Mahrez • Richarlison • Schurrle • Gunnarsson
    Aguero • Firmino • Arnautovic

  23. Scheister
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    RMT please. 1.0 itb
    Hoping to turn Eriksen into KDB after a week or so. What do you think?

    Fab Foster
    Robbo Mendy Kabasele Doherty Wan-B
    Salah Eriksen Richarlison Jota Ward
    Kun Arnie Zaha

  24. SADIO SANÉ
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    IF Luiz turns out to be 'nailed' - would you rather have

    Luiz as a 4th defender (442)
    or
    Wood/Mitrovic/Austin?

    1. Football Weekender
      • 9 Years

      Luiz. I’d take a nailed defender at a top 6 club over a mid-price striker personally.

          To expand on the point, I’m looking at it in these basic terms - It’s 4 points for a clean sheet and 4 points for a goal. Man Utd, Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea & Spurs all kept 16 or more clean sheets last season. I can’t see a striker priced at £6.5m or less scoring 16 goals this season.

            pretty good point - I think Arnie will (I know he's 7) and possibly Wood/Austin at a squeak but they both seem injury prone which doesn't help

              think you've just sold it to me tbh, it just makes sense - they can 'easily' get 6PPM with nice fixtures (especially the full-backs with attacking threat)

                • 9 Years
                7 years, 4 months ago

                Yeah, 4-4-2 for me this season.

                GK and 4 DF from the top 6.

                Front two of a big hitter and a £7m option. Currently on Agüero & Arnautovic.

                  7 years, 4 months ago

                  sounds good - similar to my draft below (except the keeper) - yeah, think Auba/Aguero & 7.0 is probably the way to go up top

                  What would be your midfield structure if you have a gk and defenders all from top 6 teams?

                    Currently on Salah, Sánchez, Pedro, Richarlison with Stephens as bench fodder.

                    Obviously if you were to drop Sanchez down to say Mahrez you could upgrade one of the £6.5m options but there seems to be a lot of choice at around £6.5m this season.

      Probably Luiz

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        it's a close one, but plenty of decent defensive options (with attacking threat) to switch to helps (PVA, Coleman, Bellerin - then Bailly/Lovren etc.)

  25. Boris Bodega
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Here we go - RMT please πŸ™‚

    Pickford - (Fabianski)
    Mendy - VVD - Sakho - Bailly - (Wan B)
    Sigurdsson - Sanchez - Ozil - (Neves - Stephens)
    Auba (C) - Firmino - Arnautovic

    1. FC_Dzbany
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      I think too much value in defense. You don't have Salah and in my opinion mid as a big question mark (Sigy under new boss and Sanchez under Mou).
      I think you also miss City attacking coverage.

    2. MarkoSD
      • 9 Years

      no salah no party

  26. The_Adam
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 4 months ago

    Pretty set on this now. My tinkering has all but stopped these last few days:

    Ederson (4.0)
    Robertson Davies Luiz Bailly (Wan-Biss)
    Salah Mane Richarlison (Cairney Stephens)
    Aguero Zaha Arnie

    0.0 ITB

    Plan is to start with Davies and potentially switch to Mendy, or a 5.0/5.5 option at a good team who seems nailed based on the opening games which have been played.

    KDB in for Mane, probably ahead of GW4 after Liverpool have played Brighton in GW3. Obviously I can only do this if I've switched Davies for a cheaper option, and not a 6.0 Man City DF.

    Starting with Richarlison as my 6.5 mid, but obviously able to switch between the plethora of other promising options in this price bracket. Possibly Maddison once Vardy is back and firing. I do expect Rich to be involved in attacking points with those nice early fixtures though.

    Expecting to wildcard no later than ahead of GW9.

      Why do you think you'll need to WC?

      1. The_Adam
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 4 months ago

        I have my picked team based on the fixtures of the first 8 gameweeks. I don't like to look too far ahead. Obviously things might go wonderfully and I don't have to WC, but after GW8 I expect there will be a few fixture difficulty swings. I know for example Palace's games suddenly get very hard, so I may want to get rid of Zaha, Spurs also have a hard run between GW9-14, so Davies would go (if I still have him). If I can make these changes week by week in the lead up to GW9 then great, I'll save the WC. But with inevitable injuries and form dips I imagine other fires in my team will need to be put out, and I don't really want to take hits to do all the transfers I want to make.

      Daniels to a different 4.5 for me.

      He may well be replaced by the new signing in gw 3.

      Decent team though, looks nice πŸ™‚

    2. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Solid. Keep an eye on Mendy.

    3. Legomané
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Excellent XI, but a solid bench is important with an abundance of potential rotation options. Not a fan of Daniels or Stephens. Can't comment on Malone!

    4. Uncle John from Jamaica
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 4 months ago

      Not keen on Daniels as Bmuff have a new left back. Yesterdays man.

      Double Wolves......

      Silva rotation risk

      Mitro quite expensive for a side that has just been promoted and may struggle to score.

          If Wood is injured, your bench is very light! I'd also, ideally, like to have wood in my starting 11.

          Could you downgrade Wood to any playing Palace striker (or Sørloth or Ings) and upgrade the rest of your bench?

          1. FPL Ultras
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            It's a strategy I follow over the last FPL seasons i.e. no bench. I put all my funds in building a strong starting 11.

          2. FPL Ultras
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 4 months ago

            Ideally I would like to have Wood in 11 but I am afraid he is injured atm.
