    Ederson & Mendy too much?

    Alternative is Foster / Fab rotation and save 0.5.

      I think it will work. If they play consistently it might work out better than forwards who are rotated.

    i have posted this a week ago - but now as we are so close to the start of the season, i thought about posting again:

    Salah mathematics

    I am trying to figure out a mathematical way of checking [salah VS (mane + 3.5)].
    so let's see if i'm getting somewhere:

    Step A - predicting Salah points

    Last season salah had 303 points in 2905 minutes. to predict what he will do this season, i took two assumptions:
    1 - last year he had no significant injuries and pool had very weak bench. the bench has really improved (shaqiri the main man) and hard to assume another completely injury free year. let's reduce his minutes by just 10% = 2610 minutes - still a lot of minutes but more reasonable than last season.
    2 - the 303 rate is the most in FPL history and over 0.104 points per minute - just insane. it takes an extreme leap of faith to believe he can keep this level. let's assume he is ALMOST at that level - and give him just a 10% reduction in output = which means 0.94 points per minute - still an unbelievable rate of production, that is matched at most by one player every year if at all - yet we assume he is capable.
    3 - let's multiply 2610 minutes by 0.94 points per minute = 245 points. less than last season of course - but still a top 1 or top 2 output in the game for sure.

    Step B - predicting Mane points

    we will make this one shorter - i assume no change in output level of points per minute (0.67) because it's the third year in a row he is putting up a very similar output, and i assume 10% increase in minutes because injuries had him at only 2189 minutes - the 10% increase gives him 2407 minutes - still 200 minutes less than salah but he is subbed off a bit more so its reasonable.
    2407*0.67= 162 points

    so, for now we are at salah 245 vs mane 162. that's 83 points gap. not 156 like last year, but still very respectable. now lets see what we can do with the 3.5 extra funds.

    Step C - the average points a 7.0 or less players (average cost around 6.0-6.5) did last year - obviously i assume you all choose wisely, so i selected just the top ten 7.0 or below players last year - gros, mili, lingard, zaha, perez, muirray, etc.
    The average of the top 10 - 128 points

    Step D - the average of the top 10 heavy hitters - players with significant price - 8.5 and over (average around 9.5-10) - sterling, KDB, Ericksen, kane, kun, etc.
    the average of the top 10 heavy hitters - 204 points.

    well now, we did some math and reach a very interesting place:
    Mane vs Salah should be 83 points difference
    3.5 extra cash upgrade should be worth 76 points

    very very close.

    this was not done to justify not having salah - and i am aware of course there is many other issues like captain choice, like hitting on the heavy hitter upgrade, like spreading the 3.5 cash on several smaller upgrades and more - too many variables to calculate.

    All i was trying show is the situation is actually much closer it seems, and we should not brand non salah owners as automatic morons.

          That's the beauty of the numbers, even if they are so clear, one can still interpret it their own way 🙂
          As Salah is one player you will pick him, and what you do with remaining 3.5 and how they score could also go horribly wrong since you are making a choice.
          I get your point its an average top hitter that you are talking about, but it is still a choice that has to be made.
          Hence Salah in team = more peaceful sleep for sure 🙂

      good effort. your working shows that salah may be worth it.

      also shows that you could make the difference providing you choose the 2/3 players scoring just as well - that’s going to take a few weeks to figure out

      to me your working shows that it’s better to start with salah and then downgrade and spread the funds elsewhere as the season develops and the best players emerge.

      for me there is far more risk and little reward potential for not starting with him. regardless of what happens over the season if he scores a brace vs. West Ham with his captaincy/ownership then BAM 30pts behind everyone.

      I don’t think he will perform to his price tag, but i’m happy to downgrade later

      • 11 Years

      Taking this point of view: Salah 300 points from 3 000 minutes last year.
      Realistically he could slip to 250 points from similar minutes.
      500 points as captain will be 20% of the seasons points total.
      Kun could stay fitter than last year and get in 2 500 minutes which at his points rate is 212 points.
      Aubamayang is scoring last year the same as Kun and will probably hit the 3 000 minutes mark. This will be 250 points. Good rotation between the pair should get you similar captain points; total say 300 points.
      To have Salah at his price means you have to get a 9 mil player alongside him. Is it not possibly logical that having Salah who creates distortion in other areas might not be the way to go?
      I posted this yesterday. Not as scientific as you but going down the same street. I got lambasted for it due to many ifs and buts.
      In conclusion we come out more or less the same. I think it is resting on captaincy picks. what I did not mention for lat year is how it hurts if a 13 mil player is benched. I think 2 600 minutes is low but 8 games on the sidelines would negate the captain benefit.

      I am going Jota.

      Why? Because i bought Richarlison at exactly the time his points dried up last season. Bad memories.

      Because Everton are a shambles at the moment.

      Because every season I always have one punt on a newly promoted player. Jota, playing OOP, fits the bill nicely (although he is a bit on the pricey side).

      By no means a compelling argument, I know, but that’s my 2 cents worth.

        Impossible honestly.

        Will have to sell one of Robbo, Mendy, Salah, Mane or Aguero.

            He looks like the first choic LB/LWB whatever formation City play.

              Can't have them all. I just felt City could well concede in gw 1 anyway.

              Want certainty over my manU defender, so bought DDG.

                Yup agreed DDG over all the United defenders. Although I still prefer Mendy over DDG for that attacking threat and a little better fixtures.

      Very tough.

      B is similar to mine and I've been debating a similar switch. It's Bavis vs Zaha so go with your gut.

      In B you could downgrade Tompkins to a 4.0 giving you flexibility and KDB ready

    Mailtland Niles could be a good 4.5 option for the start (if we don't sign a LB)

    Monreal's carrying a knock and Kolasinac injured, he's nailed for the first few to play LB and has a good cross on him

    A lot of hardcore FPL folks on Twitter advocate going big on defence as it's the area where premium players pay off more so than in attack.

    Can anyone advocate?
    Always done the opposite and gone big in attack but mkght change my tune this year.

      I've got him right now. He's been playing up front in preseason and scored goals against Barca and Roma (I think). I know preseason isn't much to go by but you need to go from something and Barca/Roma aren't shyte teams.
