Premier League 2022/23 fixtures: FPL captaincy rotation

Dark red would probably be overstating the difficulty until we see how they get on under Hag a bit

You're certainly selling me on sticking to Haaland/Son/Diaz over trying to fit Salah in. Guess I'll have to see how things look in preseason, not averse to Kane+Son double-up then moving Kane to Haaland in GW2 as some have mooted but I never like booking in transfers so I'll have to think a lot more on that one

Spurs lost both their games v SOU last season

You could also leave it on Salah for the first 4 arguably 5

I am not going without Salah at the start. Period. No matter which FPL influencer goes without

Last season felt especially bad for people copying influencers, I don't care that much because I aim to beat the influencers and top players but it was weird watching people who for years didn't really have a clue about fpl all suddenly making strange similar moves week by week

ESR or Martinelli nailed?

depends on his price, if he's 7.5m then probably, if he's more then probably not.

Depending how Jesus is priced, I may lean that direction. Saka the most nailed mid option though.

If Jesus joins I think I'll go with him. If not then I'm heavily considering Saka but only remembering from discussions here that Martinelli had the penalty last day I'm not too sure. Might cause myself pain and go for Marti again

You retire to the drawing room after your FPL planning? Do you live in a mansion?

Lol

If you start with a budget of £125m perhaps.

if Saka on pens, Saka

Possibly neither. What price is Martinelli? Tierney?

Brighton is plain weird. Those are not easy games.

They don't if you set it to relative

I've considered those. I don't really trust the ticker as it stands - Brighton's games are tougher than it suggests. I'm considering a 4.5 defender and Gelhardt from Leeds, but as benchies - their fixtures don't give me confidence at either end. Brentford without Eriksen worries me, but if there's a 4.5 defender going, why not?

Liverpool and City are so far head-and-shoulders above the rest that I'm going to blow half my budget on 6 of them. I agree with your maybes and intend to avoid starting with them, starting pretty conservatively until I can suss the lie of the land.

the answer is rarely to get no city players, it's usually to get the right ones. Haaland hopefully makes that easier.

Neto is an interesting one, Wolves seemed to be missing something last season so he may help, but I'll just find it hard to trust Wolves until I see a bit from them so I'd say I'll avoid. Mount could do well with those fixtures for sure, I'll be keeping an eye on Gallagher in preseason but if he's not an option Mount may be worth trying to get to.

or Martinelli & Coady for chilwell & bissouma

I don't like it, but only because you're going to have to start 2 of Johnson, Gelhardt, Bissouma, another 4.5m mid and a 4.5m striker every week.

Good call, actually

Yeah as a cheapie for sure

Good shout on Ode & if we get Jesus he will finally have someone who can make intelligent runs to put away the abundance of chances he creates.

77 big chances created last year only behind TAA Bruno & KDB

He was superb last year but still feels more like assist the assister type rather than the assister or scorer most of the time
