FPL is back! The World Cup has been an enjoyable watch but like so many of you reading this, I have to say I’m happy that we can get back to focusing on building our teams for Boxing Day and beyond.
Just like we saw in pre-season, a strong template is emerging. The likes of Kepa Arrizabalaga (£4.5m) and even Diogo Dalot (£4.8m) are attracting substantial interest, as we look to shake up our squads and target some very promising fixtures for some of the league’s top teams.
Just like I did in my (failed) Gameweek 1 draft, I’m trying to target the areas of the template where I think there are weaknesses. While this went pretty disastrously for me before, I’m hopeful that this time I can get it right. I think there are some excellent differentials for us to consider this time around and I’m hoping we see some real variety in people’s teams as the festive schedule begins.
