    There were only 4 teams that scored less than Everton over the second half of last season. Just putting it out there...

      When they did score Digne was involved.

      The new azpi in my mind.

        How have you come to that conclusion?

        I make it 1 goal and 2 assists for Digne in 2019. Everton scored a lot more than that, which kinda suggests he wasn't involved that much?

        He has a threat from set pieces and after some time in the league is better placed to push on. He’s a dangerous attacking full back, and that’s my favourite type of defender.

        It's going to be interesting when people start to look at their decision to spend 6m on an Everton defender when city/liverpool defenders are around the same price

      That is a counter argument to those who own Digne and that they aren't reliant on clean sheets

      It's genuinely very surprising the vast majority of teams were in terms of goalscoring over the second half of the season - 11 teams scored between 25 and 29 goals. This was quite different to season before where it was much more polarised over the second half of the season.

          This, and it's from 28th December as that's when the second half of games started so you play everyone once from that point (a fair a time period fixture wise as any taking just a sample, not withstanding some easier/harder home/away fixtures)

      For me it’s a sofa hiding during any top 6 vs Liverpool game. The club score goals. The defence is amazing, one goal and it could be 6 pointer from 20m of players.

    I finally feel like I've hit the perfect draft guys, covering all basis in a 4-5-1. Don't think I will change much now until the start of the season. Maybe only shifting siggy out for richarlson. Or Zich out for coleman/walker. (if I go for walker then I'd do robbo --> VVD)

    Sterling - Salah - Fraser - Tielemans - Dendoncker

    Wesley - Wilson - Greenwood

    - I will play Adam Smith gw1 when Wesley plays spurs away, then will be kept on bench.
    - I have £0.5m its in case Wesley flops so I can get a £6.5m striker in.

      Not obvious yet.

      Lundstram getting preseason minutes in midfield, but SHU fans don't think he'll start once the PL begins.(same story with Handley)

      Rico - differing reports, but some suggest he could play more than last year.

      Gibson - if Tarkowski goes.

        Both goalie are the best choices in their respective price. And yes, I am afraid Pep will rotate Kun and Jesus heavily this season, but considering Jesus is still resting after Copa America and Kane might have his usual August drought

    If Moura had two good fixtures, I would be tempted. As it is, with just the one, it feels like an unnecessary gamble when Fraser with two great opening fixtures is available at the same price.

          ...in seriousness, playing a 4.5m in midfield without having a premium striker, isn't good enough.

    I've done some number crunching that I think some people may find interesting.

    Looking at it to get a good score you need every 1.0m you invest in your first 11 to get around 23 points plus double on around 12 m (Salah, sterling) for captain points. This would net out around 2200 for a season. This assumed bench fodder of 4.0,4.0,4.5,4.5

    Big question for me then is in GK right now a tier 1 6.0 GK is likely to get 160 points (27 points per 1.0m) , whereas a 4.5 (Ryan) will only get 120 (agin 27 points).

    At this points per million having a premium keeper makes most sense as not a single mid for 7.0m apart from Milli on 166 got over 160 points and that's at 1.0m more expensive.

    It would also mean vardy would need something like 207, close to 30 less than last season.

    Premium defenders also score very well on this method

      Just watch the GK assumptions

      Ederson & Alison could easily break 180, with pen saves they could go further

      Etheridge smashed it at 4.5 last year

      Pope got 152 the year before at 4.5

      Age on mid price mids - I find them generally to be hugely underwhelming at those prices

      Vardy *should* be ok when you consider he has 10G 1 A in the 11 games since Puel was sacked

          on average there tends to be nothing it in between good 4.5s and premiums. the 1.5 is likely put to better use elsewhere once you know which teams look solid. from gw1 its a largely unnecessary risk imo

      it might seem logical on the face of it to maximize gross spend in positions where players offer highest value per mill (gk, def) but due to formation restrictions and the pricing structure of mids/attackers it doesn’t really work that way
