I m going with salah sterling pepe(expected 8.5) barkley dendo wilson wood greenwood

yes

A because it has Salah.

A

Given the fixtures Holebas could be good before he collects enough YC's for a ban.

He’s always a deep breath away from a yellow card which really puts me off.

Not for me. Fixtures aren't that great and he's an aging card magnet.

He's love for getting booked just puts me off and he's not getting any younger either. I always tend to avoid him and Deeney as they could pick up a red any week.

Best player in the prem

Few too many punts for my liking.

Genius or early WC

Pepe for the start is a great shout actually! Especially since I really want son for gw3

how much is Pepe tho?

Salah-less.. brave but I like it a lot. You’re steaming into City and Kane which can be a differential strategy. After all, City will likely be score the most goals again.

Cannot understand why people are convinced going anywhere near Brightin's defence makes sense.

Ryan isn't the worst shout for save points but the other 4.5m goalkeepers will probably end up facing similar amount of shots but probably keep more clean sheets.

Either way, the disparity between the points totals of keepers at seasons end is quite low. I don't think it's an area that needs too much discussion or thought. Barring City or Pool keepers, there wasn't really much in it points per million-wise or indeed points total.

Whoever you go with as a 4.5 or 5m GK.. I just can't see it making too much difference come season end.

And Brighton really are horrendous and I'd be amazed if they don't get relegated this season. Defensively they're atrocious, I really do not understand some of the love they get.

I like the logic re: no attackers v your keeper! Very smart. I think my only concern is that they’re just a bad football team. It’s good to rely on saves but it tough to see more than 2 CS in that mix. Despite that I don’t think it’s a bad choice.

His total score was under called last season due to the oceanic barbecue cup or whatever that was around Christmas - if you add Button’s score on it bumps it up a bit...

But I reckon Henderson has a stingier defence in front of him - SU had a fairly mean goals conceded, particularly at home - he should get oodles of save points

Both Pope & Heaton have 150+ pedigree’s from season’s past and crucially have had their oaths clearedin term sof completion & look nailed- I’d have those three before Ryan

Ryan, Pope, Heaton, Henderson.. Loving the 4.5s this year. One of them will have a standout year. I like your thinking since in 6 weeks we'll have signs about which one will have it

Hey mate, did you see the piece that Alan Jones did with Matt Ryan on his Sky News show a month or so back? Great interview and he seems like such a nice guy - brought his mum a house as soon as could afford it from memory.

11m on GKs is mental.

Get rid of Foster there is no need. Allison will be good all season.

Perez/Tielemans

Pretty good overall. I personally prefer Wesley compare to Deulofeu tho, and it give you 0.5 to put elsewhere (Digne -> VVD/Laporte)

B

I like it, very similar to mine actually. You have Fraser/Deu to my Barkley/Wilson.

Think you should go back to the drawing board mate.

Pick 2 big hitters, at least 2 premium defenders and then take it from there. See other RMTs for general team structure 🙂

3/10

Good pick but not as good as Salah or Sterling so I've accepted that he will score well, but I will have to find other avenues to get points - premium gk & defenders, the best mid price player etc.

My own thoughts are unfortunately not positive - he has spent most of the last 6 months out with chronic ankle problems, his manager has started viewing him as more of a deep lying hub for his pacy wingers to run off, and he's demonstrated in multiple prior seasons that even when he bangs in 30+ goals he still doesn't get too much over 200 points

Salah by contrast has a 'bad' season and still gets 260...Sterling is pretty much the main attacking threat in the greatest attack England has ever seen...

And to add insult to injury they both get an extra point per goal AND a clean sheet bonus

It is not an opinion I've formed overnight - this is from a long observation of both Kane and the general FPL landscape

Is also definitely NOT the same thing as saying he won't hattrick in GW1 though as there's a definite possibility he could do exactly that

But it won't be for my team if it happens

If you are concerned about Spurs take Lucas for first two gws where Son is definitely out, and then review ahead of GW3. Just make sure you've a route to Kane in two moves if you think it becomes necessary...

I'm starting with all 3 and downgrading one to whoever appeals in the mid price bracket after 3 weeks to upgrade my cheap 5.5 punt ie Robinson. Works well and doesn't leave me exposed. If all 3 of them look good il just make transfers elsewhere and survive with them. The sub 6.5 bracket looks good for midfielders(Leicester, Chelsea, promoted sides) and forwards(about 12 team's forwards can be covered at 6.5).

where will he play though ?, in Brighton's last friendly Potter went with Murray Locadia & Trossard as a front 3 that worked really well as they won 4-0 with all of them getting attacking returns, Gross sat out that match for some reason, i think they play Valencia tonight though which should be more informative

Not bad don't like Ake but the fixtures aren't bad to start with.

Robbie/TAA, Laporte, Digne

45m apparently

Tsheee

Really what’s the source

Laca n auba will share minutes...pepe will play more as he is a pure wingwr

Jota Perez

1 and 3 would be my pick, save 0.5m

Lud dendo greenwood

Im not too worried about my bench to start with, starting xi should be good to go and will inevitably make a move after gw2. Starting with Kane Salah and KDB so one could be downgraded a little

Yes but Fredericks has been injured
