How premium FPL assets have compared in 2019/20

Premium assets are often the ones we build our Fantasy Premier League teams around and generally the players we turn to for captaincy duties.

Their prohibitive prices mean that we can’t own them all at the same time and trying to find the right combination of big-hitters can be key to success in FPL.

With that in mind, we look at some of the most popular and highest-scoring premium assets of 2019/20 in closer detail.

The six leading players for FPL points – Mohamed Salah (£12.7m), Kevin De Bruyne (£10.6m), Sadio Mane (£12.5m), Jamie Vardy (£9.7m), Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.8m) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.1m) – are all featured, alongside Sergio Aguero (£11.8m).

Which of these players performs better at home? Who is more consistent on the road? And which of our septet racks up the most points against the top-flight also-rans? We’ll attempt to answer those questions and more in our latest Members’ article.

The likes of Harry Kane (£10.8m), Son Heung-min (£9.7m) and Marcus Rashford (£8.8m), who may all be fit by the time the Premier League is ready to emerge from this enforced hibernation, we will study separately over the coming weeks and months as they edge closer to re-entering the Fantasy radar.

      You'll regret not investing in Man City properly.

      Looks absolutely superb. Did you really get 2,004 sign-ups?!

      Vardy most-captained and with highest EO in GW1.

      1. Ragabolly

        Yup, up to 2004 GW1 players from 200-ish before the FFS article 😀 Thank you!

      Thank you so much for all your hard work.

      I had a most enjoyable afternoon tinkering with my team.

        Thanks a lot Virg, that was the intention!

    Is it possible to follow play by play?

    1. Ragabolly
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 12 days ago

      A match report will be ready for people to view, meaning they can skip to full time and see the result immediately, also scores and ranks will be updated immediately. I thought a lot about making it such that everyone has to follow the play by play first, but it was way too complex, so thought I would start with the easier option first.

      1. Gringo Kid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Thanks Ragabolly, one more question please

        When it will be? 🙂

        1. Ragabolly

          First game released in 40 minutes. The times of games release are under the fixtures tab.

            Is it alright if we tweet out the scores/goals/assists/bonus etc once they're out, Ragabolly? I'll do a round-up in article form for later in the week, too.

            1. Ragabolly
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 12 days ago

              Yes of course

  4. FPL Virgin

    I'm excited! 😀

    What time is kick off? Do the games run in real time?

    I quite like that jump to the end button!

    1. Ragabolly
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 12 days ago

      In 20 mins you will be able to jump to the end of the first game.

    Wow had missed that tinkering!
    Even felt kinda pressured when it got close to the deadline!
    Thank you Ragabolly!

    1. Duffy Dunk
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 days ago

      Vardy was my initial C but Salah got to beast mode in the friendlies, so it had to be him.
      Manager name: Lou Roll
      Team name: Insanitisers

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Aguero was my captain ... I transferred him out for Sterling (c) 10 minutes before deadline to get the 0.2 saving. What could possibly go wrong?

        1. Duffy Dunk
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 12 days ago

          I feel Vardy will punish me for not Cing him...

            • 7 Years
            4 years, 12 days ago

            If there's one thing I've learnt from watching hundreds of LTAFPL streams is that coverage works. *** fingers crossed ***

    2. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 days ago

      I know what you mean. That familiar feeling of pre-deadline panic came flooding back.

    3. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      I know right.

      I went from Ings to Wood to DCL to Ings in the final minute.

  6. Whats the Mata?

    Never thought I'd be this excited for the VFPL lmao.

    Amazing participation and again, great job Ragabolly!

    15 minutes to go!

    1. FPL Virgin

      • 7 Years

      I'm a bit worried about not owning Vardy :S

      Hopefully Barnes will provide some coverage.

      1. Whats the Mata?

        Went triple Leicester for the three home games. Too good to ignore.

        Vardy Barnes Evans.

    4th and 6th with multiple teams, Boo!

    1. Monkey Hanger
      • 10 Years

      DQ.

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 12 days ago

        Yes, I thought it was one team per player like in FPL. Two teams is a big advantage as you get double the number of friendlies as well.

    2. Ragabolly
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 12 days ago

      If confirmed, will disqualify one surely

      1. bitm2007

        There are a couple of Luis Garcia teams in those rankings as well.

        1. Poseidon.

          THE Luis Garcia?

            • 9 Years

            Unlikely teams are 4th an 13th in the OR

  17. gooberman

    Can see the headlines now. Palace score 3 goals at home for the first time in 10yrs! Lol

    1. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 12 days ago

      The clues were there in the simulations of the friendlies. Did you use all 10? You get a lot of valuable information from them.

      1. gooberman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 12 days ago

        It seemed I was only able to do 4-5 friendlies

  18. bitm2007
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    Ward and Ayew owner, good start it would have been even better if I could find the MITB for PVA who scored twice in my friendily's

  19. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 12 days ago

    Brighton getting thrashed away by the second bluntest attack in the league. That's actually very realistic and spot on. Brian Potter is the most overrated manager in premier league history ... in real life and virtually.

    1. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years

            I had Auba captain and PVA in starting line up

            as i had Stevens, Saka, Ward Prowse on the bench

            I even have a Screenshot of the team. Wait, i'll email you

    Mmm. So Palace score 3 a player misses 2 penalties and PVA takes the penalty for Palace? What exactly is this simulator based on? Doesn't seem to be FPL. Lol

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

      Good managers have 3 Palace players. Common sense mainly.

    2. Ragabolly

      PVA is the second penalty taker after Milli. I got a list of pen takers coded in the game
