With just seven days to go until the 2021/22 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) season kicks off, now seems like a good time to share my latest draft.

And it is very much a draft, and one which is evolving on a daily basis right now!

However, I don’t envisage too much changing between now and next week’s deadline, providing Harry Kane (£12.5m) and Romelu Lukaku don’t turn up at Manchester City and Chelsea that is.

    Which combination scores more in the first 3 games?

    A) Bruno and Raphinha

    B) Son and Greenwood

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      A

    2. Ëð
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      A

    3. Gomolon
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Lol was just about to ask the same thing

  2. SILENTWAR
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    With the signing of Cristian Romero to Spurs, do you think they will gain more CS this year?

    1. AC Pilkington
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I think that’s what they are hoping . Wait and see for me

    2. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Wait and see, if they do though ... Reguillon (and possibly Doherty if nails a spot) become very interesting.

    Is Man Citeh coverage essential first few GWs?

    1. Ëð
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I don't think so. I don't fancy my chances in Pep roulette. Wait until we see a few lineups

      1. sumatera
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        My feeling also
        Prioritise a premium Liverpool in defence and the midfield/attack a complete lottery for citeh

    2. pjomara
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Grealish will start the most games. You're not going to spend £100m on a player and use him for squad rotation.

      1. St Pauli Walnuts
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Pep.

      2. Bob Mal
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        You would think this makes sense. But then again....Pep.

    3. Gomolon
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Mahrez has had a rest and good preseason. KDB + Foden injured, Grealish only just joined and may take time to settle.

      1. St Pauli Walnuts
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Spot on

    4. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Nope, ownership fairly low. Likes of Mahrez could be amazing differential to start with though.

  4. Ëð
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Feels quite template, but what do you think of my first draft?

    Sanchez, Foster
    TAA, Shaw, White, Lowton, Omobam
    Salah, Bruno, Buendia, Raph, Bissouma
    Ings, Antonio, DCL

    1. sumatera
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Very solid
      I'm not sure Everton will start well so not keen on DCL

    2. MJF
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Really solid.

    3. gme3twenty
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      So lads, what we thinking?

      Schmeichel (Sanchez)
      Digne Dias Shaw (white livramento)
      Bruno salah buendia raphinha (smith Rowe)
      Toney Ings Antonio

      Have read about shaw in recent posts not featuring during pre season so May look to switch him out. Don’t think I’m looking too bad though??

      1. Ëð
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Looking pretty similar to mine, like it

      2. Claire McHale
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Mine is similar to yours only I have Martinez in goal and I don’t have Salah, now I’m doubting myself.

    4. AC Pilkington
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I would like to think I can lock in Grealish (c) in GW2

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        We all would, are you feeling lucky?

      2. Pops15
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Would be nice but wouldn't be confident captaining and City player in GW2. I think just owning him early on is going to be enough of a differential, at least in the FPL community. Seems like many casuals will have him early on

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Current draft
      G2G?

      Meslier
      Trent Digne Cash
      Salah Son Grealish Barnes
      Bamford Ings Toney

      Foster Veltman Brownhill Omo

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Not sure about Cash

      Morning all I have taken a week's annual leave returning to the office on 16th August. I will be using this time to scrutinise content on this website. If you are as geeky as me, then please compete on my ML:

        Wow, you're really repeatedly spruiking this aren't you. As a non-geeky worker I'll pass on whatever this dodgy thing is.

        Is this your out of office reply?

    7. Coast94

      Thoughts on my team pls?

      Sanchez, Bachmann

      Digne, Shaw, Cresswell, Tierney, Ayling

      Salah, Son, Mahrez, Barnes, Brownhill

      Ings, Antonio, Toney

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Looks well set up. Good luck. Things will change.

      2. Pops15
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Feel confident with no UTD attacking options?

        1. The Knights Template
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Absolutely

      3. Gomolon
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I think you'll have a bit too much money on the bench with only Brownhill as a set bench pick. No ManU attack and no Liverpool defence is brave but equally could pay off massively if it works for you lol

    8. Eastman
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Whose going with Mount?

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        You are banished from the kingdom!

      2. Gomolon
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Not with Greenwood, Jota, Barnes, Raph, Buendia also around. Will be wait and see for me

    9. a bloke
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Anyone know what defence Everton are likely to field GW1?

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        A garden variety leaky defence.

      2. a bloke

        Helpful

        1. The Knights Template

          If it steers you away, my job is done.

    10. Fpl_Ludwig
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Is it worth taking out TAA for a 5.5 Def, so i can go for Salah, Bruno, Mahrez and Son in midfield?

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Probably, yep.

    11. Starskyb
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      RMT please.

      Sanchez (Foster)
      Digne, Shaw, White, Coady (Omobamidele)
      Fernandes, Salah, Son (Raphinha, Romeu)
      DCL, Toney, Antonio

      Decisions really are do I downgrade DCL to upgrade defender to TAA?
      Is Coady best 4.5?
      Romeu or Gilmour?
      Any other glaring errors you've noticed :-p

      1. The Knights Template
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Get TAA
        Ayling over Coady
        Gilmour

        1. Starskyb
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Cheers, yeh Gilmour move already made. Not considered Ayling before so that's a good shout too.

      Sorry if this has been asked before , but where's Harvey Elliot in the FPL structure , whether or not I'd select him , I'm intrigued.

      Thoughts on this current draft plz. Just removed Barnes + Dias for Jota + Cresswell.

      Bachmann (Foster)
      TAA Shaw Cresswell Veltman Amartey
      Salah Bruno Jota Greenwood Raphina

      Hi guys quite new to this. What are your thoughts on having lowest value on bench for more options in 1st 11?
