Summer signings may be key to Everton’s FPL appeal

Our latest Numbers Game article focuses on Everton, who many Fantasy managers are backing in their droves ahead of some appealing fixtures in the first 13 Gameweeks of 2019/20.

The Toffees sit top our Season Ticker over this time, meeting only two of the ‘big six’ between now and the end of December.

Not one of their first six away fixtures is against a side that finished in the top half of the Premier League in 2018/19.

The Numbers Game series delves into the underlying attacking and defensive statistics of last season and is only available for Members to read.

    Thoughts? Very thin bench I know but possibly justified with a premium defence, three big hitters in mid and very good striker?

    Pope
    VVD TAA Zinchenko Coleman
    Salah Sterling KDB Perez Dendoncker
    Vardy

    Much better today.

    - Salah looked sharp in his 45 mins.
    - Trent back to playing well. Should have had an assist (Hendo miss) and nearly scored a freekick.
    - Robbo had a few more crosses than in recent games.
    - Defensive structure looked better. Still one or two rusty moments.

    And on a side note, 16 year old Harvey Elliott looks a special talent. Hope to see him in the cups!

            Yes, getting into good positions and ghosting around the box. Perez may improve as his fitness does but for now, it’s Tielemans. If Vardy had been a bit more clinical, he’d have racked up plenty of pre-season assists too.
