How Aubameyang compares to other FPL midfielders after positional change

Soucek

Rather have Kane for the price

Trouble with Kun is you need better than 2 x 4.5 strikers for when he is benched for Jesus.
You can get away with it with a Kane because he’ll play every game when fit.

I guess you have 2 cheap kids in your starting 11?

Still going to get 50% starts...

I have seen a few comments like this but I think the 4.5 defenders makes it possible. FPL have been very kind this year. You could have 4 premiums.

Taa + 4*4.5 (Taylor Vinaigre Dallas Thomas/Justin) makes it easier to fit 3 big hitting Midfielders mate.

No

I can’t see myself doubling up on Mané and Salah at all this year.

It is away though... And might not be high scoring.

Agree that Vinagre is a bargain if they don't sign anyone but I'm not sure he replaces Doherty, he's a different class to every non-Liverpool defender in the game.

Great sum up.

I'm wondering to get grealish/mount + doherty or robbo + 6m mid, but could not find anyone interesting.

Greenwood, I remember people said he over achieved last season? Or not?

I like Chelsea attacking attitude, but not sure 100% Werner will start so I'm leaning to Vardy.

VVD > Robbo for value

Point 6 interests me, I was wondering whether if you have the luxury of spare transfers, targetting clean sheets is better than targetting goals. I would like to see some output from someone that can be bothered to work it out.

1. Pep
2. Jesus

Playing on left as opposed to right. When Left scores goals, right gets assists.

Greed, thinks he's a golden boot contender instead of making the best decisions

Random variance.

He is a mid now. Step away.

Rotation looms I reckon

No, looks like he might be leaving the club

I assume they were waiting on City and United. If United win today, I wouldn't be surprised if it's City vs United in GW1 so both blank and rest.

Man united tonight

MUN game results today.

Tnx all

I think so, Newcastle run though him at the moment so he will see the ball a lot

Great fun to own, though. I think he came to the fore after the restart after Bruce made a formation change. Soucek, I agree, is a bargain.

earlier today someone said armstrong could be of better value. I'm leaning towards him. yet again it all depends on the fixtures. I think it took a while for ASM to adapt PL, he can surely be a better threat this season

Cheers all. Soucek seems a no-brainer. I'll have a look at Armstrong

I think both are good options as 5th midfielder.

I am on ASM atm. Would almost always play ASM with a decent fixture ahead of a 4.5 defender with a good fixture, but I would start the 4.5 > Soucek I think

Both

I’ve got both think they are both great options

vinegar, if surely nailed while jonny is out.

I like it, no auba could hurt but it all depends on the fixtures. good first draft imo

Foden is a could be but i would wait a couple of weeks to see what pep does with him now dilva has gone. Fernandes depending on tonight but the rest i like

Think bench is fine, this is a solid team.

Saliba over Walker Peters.

But that teams looks pretty strong overall.

Thanks all, appreciate the feedback

This is it

Both could get 30 days rest between seasons if played on Wednesday of GW1, only question mark would be do they need a preseason ?

Personally I don’t think it will happen unless Pogba goes and grealish is the replacement

Highly doubt we'll sign Grealish, Villa will want too much money since they stayed up and I'm not sure where he fits unless Pogba leaves which won't happen as no one can afford him.

He'd likely be a rotation option for Rashford and Bruno. Come off the bench most games, start some when fixtures are congested

Why would they sign Grealish?

I honestly feel they only need backup players now. They have built a starting XI similarly to how Pool did. Now they can either go down the City route of spending lots to rotate (Ole doesn't rotate) or the Pool route of having dedicated backups (Ole showed this with Ighalo + Martial, just needs an Ighalo replacement and backup wingers)

I can't see United signing Grealish Unless they sell Pogba.

He's not winger. So can't see him on wings. I'd love to see him in United shirt though. Could cause rotation in CM but who cares

well I believe people would be satisfied with regular clean sheets from a 4.5M defender plus a 1.5M to spend elsewhere. they're not comparing him with doherty's attacking returns

I think Saiss at 5.0 is a great bargain too, him and Vinaigrette together could be tasty imo

I prefer having both. Doc is an attacker with 4 extra CS points. Vinagre is a cheap Wolves defender with rare extra attack points

At present, I’m confident Doherty is worth the extra outlay, saves a transfer down the line too

Probably going both depending on fixtures. Both bargains I think

I'm pretty certain that I'll start with Doherty purely on the basis that he's my favourite FPL asset, he's just so much fun.

Im getting both

A

Why would you get Brewster... The whole point of the fodders is that it doesn't block key slots. If you need a triple Pool at some point he'll be a real annoyance.

I wouldn't get a defender from gunners, no matter how cheap he is. At least not yet.

heavy investment on defence. could work depending on fixtures

Yeah, it's Antonio then nothing until Ings/Jimenez/Martial for me.

There are only 4 of them, two are Chelsea players who are not nailed and the others are both Toffees (Richarilson and DCL), the later may tempt me if the fixtures are good.

Rule 3.1.a - Never pick brand new players to the PL. 😀 I'm sure I've read that somewhere.

he so is, I know he will be a flop lol. But i'll porbably still have him

There's been a few good posts about him since post lockdown - him scoring 3 doesn't seem a fluke

Since restart... 3 goals. 14 shots in the box. 2.94 xG non penalty, 6th among all midfielders last season which included Antonio who is now a forward.

The stats support him being a great pick.

He's a goal scorer cm/cdm. Doesn't get involved in every attack but he scores regularly with foot and head. Great signing by Wham.

could work, but a bold selection imo. no auba, no kdb, no sterling, no bruno

What if one of Auba/Sterling/Kdb/Mane/Bruno start scoring like crazy. Can't see a direct route to get them in without 3-4 transfers as you have distributed the funds all around.

I believe he will, yes.

Probably will pick the one of those with best fixtures

Armstrong imo. Shelvey overlooked too

Saka and Martinelli could be a thing at some point - ASM and Jonjo too

Don't think any of them are bound to be great. Saka would have been possibly, but not now with Willian in the team.

I almost can't believe I'm saying this but I think I'd rather have Bamford than a 5.5 mid if they don't sign a striker, rather have Soucek than any of them though.

Great to see Indiana Vassilev in a draft.

Decent, only difference is i have Auba instead of sterling and upgraded Antonio to Werner, dropped son to a 5.5 mid

Saliba ? who's he ?

B

They can see you through your monitor, mate.
