    We the change to scoring system, particularly baps for SoT, what price Timo Werner would have to be for you to consider him?

    1. Holmes
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      loads of options before I consider Werner, even if he is 5.5 or something.

    2. SpaceCadet
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      4.5m

    3. BIGREDDOG
      • 7 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      3.5m

    4. Philosopher's Stones
      • 4 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      2.5m

    Watkins + Salah vs Haaland + Nkunku is a real debate

      You can have all as I do.

    Liking the look of this draft. Vvd > saliba in a few gws. Thoughts?

      Little bit light in midfield. But that is what Having Haaland gets you.

      Why Cho? Who is he?

        Hudson-Odoi. N Forest mid.

          Haha thanks for that. Not a bad choice then. I’ve gone for wood instead but could easily change to Muniz

          1. Merlin the Wraith
            • 8 Years
            10 months, 2 days ago

            Have gone for Muniz myself with Rodri/Rice in mid although one of them likely to be Nkunku.

  4. Weeb Kakashi
    • 9 Years
    10 months, 2 days ago

    How's it?

    Areola Fabianski
    TAA Robbo Hall Konsa Faes
    Salah Saka Son Bowen MGW
    Isak Muniz 4.5

    1. The Knights Template
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Little bit light in the forwards. But that is what having Salah, Saka and Son gets you.

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        • 9 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        TAA> 4.5
        Bowen> Nkunku
        Muniz> Watkins

        And then nothing will be light.

        1. BIGREDDOG
          • 7 Years
          10 months, 2 days ago

          I like that with Andersen or Robinson.

    2. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Not sure on the Liverpool double defence. I'd go Robbo to Gvardiol/Arsenal defender to help balance it out.

  5. Ryan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 13 Years
    10 months, 2 days ago

    First RMT for the season

    Areola Flekken
    TAA Gvardiol Martinez Mykolenko Barco
    Salah Foden Eze Nkunku ESR
    Watkins Izak Wood
    0.5 ITB

    I'm jumping on ESR as the Fulham move appears done. Barco is a bit of a hail marry but could be any 4m defender or I could upgrade to a Newcastle 4.5m defender.

    Any concerns at this stage?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      No concerns

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Looks good. Everton and Palace rotate well if you wanted to spend the .5 on Barco to Andersen for example but Barco could potentially be the pick if the 4’s.

      1. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Yeah, it was a balance call. With two premium defenders, not sure if its worth having 3 x 4.5's going for one spot. I have considered Anderson as well, he's a good option.

    3. Weeb Kakashi
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Great team. Although not a fan of 8 attackers and 2 rotating goalkeepers.

    4. WonderWal
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Is Areola set to start? Didn't West Ham bring in Foderingham from Luton as a potential replacement?

    5. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      I notice Nkunku played in the 8 role (Palmer's role) in Chelsea's friendly. Any thoughts on where he would play when Palmer is back?

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        • 9 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Palmer could perhaps switch to the right. Less likely.
        Can see Palmer starting as a 10 and Nkunku either on the left or as a lone striker.

      2. Chandler Bing
        • 8 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        He played from the left cutting inside. Palmer does that from the right (or central altogether). Think Nkunku plays LW or CAM and Palmer CAM or RW. Chelsea's other LW's haven't really shown anything promising.

      3. The Mentaculus
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Seen some suggestions that Palmer would play one of the 8 roles too - though I'm not sure he's up to that defensively, and if paired with Nkunku like that they'd better hope Caicedo turns into Rodri sharpish - but also that Maresca was the one who initially put Palmer RW. Bit hard to predict their shape at the moment

        1. The Mentaculus
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 3 Years
          10 months, 2 days ago

          There's not really a 10 in Maresca's preferred system

      4. Zimo
        • 6 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Could be Nkunku plays LW/ST with KDH taking the other 8 role with Palmer. Or Palmer could just play the RW.

        1. Zimo
          • 6 Years
          10 months, 2 days ago

          Either way I'm doubling up.

        2. Mother Farke
          • 1 Year
          10 months, 2 days ago

          Maresca was the first coach to put Palmer at RW. Back when he coached City's youth team. Food for thought.

          1. LangerznMash
            • 8 Years
            10 months, 2 days ago

            RW in a 3-2-4-1 won't get him in to regular goal scoring positions.

    6. BIGREDDOG
      • 7 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      What's the new Liverpool managers style of play? Is it going to change much? Makes me uncertain of Salah.

      1. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 13 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        I vaguely remember a pre-season article which suggests the style of play won't change that much. It's similar to Klopp.

      2. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 10 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        I would stay clear of Salah for now anyway. His form wasn't great last year compared to his own standards and with a new manager who knows how he will perform. Too risky for 12.5m

        1. teddy.
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          10 months, 2 days ago

          Great player, great fixtures. Don't overthink it.

          1. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 10 Years
            10 months, 2 days ago

            I'm getting haaland anyway and no way I can fit both so won't have to worry abou Salah (for now 😉 )

        2. Rasping Drive
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years

          What, even with that new haircut?

          • 12 Years
          10 months, 2 days ago

          The only major stat Salah was down on last year was minutes played - and a lot of that was down to Afcon and some injuries. I do think it's right to be concerned about how the system and style may change under Slot - and maybe Salah won't play every minute of every game like he used to, but at the start of the season, fully fit and rested, with good fixtures, may be the right time to have him?

          1. The Mentaculus
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 3 Years
            10 months, 2 days ago

            Only saw it on the FPL price reveal blog, but his dribble success % has been in decline for a few years now

            1. The Mentaculus
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 3 Years
              10 months, 2 days ago

              He has lost a bit of pace too, and his penalty success rate must be down

                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 12 Years
                10 months, 2 days ago

                Both good points. The penalties is interesting - any chance he loses them with a new manager?

                1. The Mentaculus
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 3 Years
                  10 months, 2 days ago

                  Unlikely, I think. Even if he isn't their best pen taker I can't really see him giving them up

      3. LangerznMash
        • 8 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        He isn't worth £12.5m. If he wasn't on penalties then he would only be worth £10.0m max

      Opinions on this sixth draft for GW#1 (99.5):
      GK: Flekken, (Henderson)
      DF: Burn, Andersen, Mykolenko, (Faes, Harwood-Bellis)
      MD: Salah (c), Saka, Gibbs-White, Gordon, Eze
      FW: Haaland (vc), Armstrong, (Archer)

      1. LangerznMash
        • 8 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Not seen Armstrong in a team yet.
        I'd downgrade Eze to Morgan to upgrade AA

      Who are we captaining for GW3?
      Can’t see Haaland scoring against Lopetegui’s West Ham away.

      1. Holmes
        • 11 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Watkins or Mbeumo

      2. Merlin the Wraith
        • 8 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Why not? The guy is fixture proof. Chances are the Hammers defence will spend most of the match trying to hack him down at a high penalty risk.

      3. The Mentaculus
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Hmm I respect Lopetegui but not to the degree that I fear WHU defence after only a couple games in charge. Would prefer Watkins (C) if I had/have him, but have no issue going with Haaland

      4. Weeb Kakashi
        • 9 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Saka/Palmer

      5. LangerznMash
        • 8 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        If I'm paying £15.0m for Haaland, then I am certainly making him captain against West Ham.

      Looks like Villa will likely eventually sign Felix. Rogers drafts down the drain.

      1. Merlin the Wraith
        • 8 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Felix likely to be No10 to Watkins, reckon Rogers still plays. As a by-line its nice to see FFS predicted team sheets up & running.

    13. Weeb Kakashi
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Best option

      A Haaland Nkunku Gordon Andersen
      B Muniz Son Saka TAA

      1. LangerznMash

        A

      3. Merlin the Wraith

        A (have gone with it) although have Muniz too.

      Anyone tempted to buy 2 x 4.0 Defenders to accomodate other players? I can get to this team -

      Henderson
      Gvardiol, Saliba, Andersen,
      Salah, Gordon, Eze Nkunku, CHO
      Haaland, Isak

      Subs: Fabianski, Faes, Mosquera, Stewart.

      1. The Knights Template
        • 11 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Absolutely! Two nailed on 4.0m defenders is core template!

      2. Wild Card this!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        It’s good. Guess it will change many times until GW1 but good for tinkering. I did something similar. 2x4 mil defenders but opted to go with Wood up front instead of Nkunku in midfield which left me with 0.5 to re-invest. Perhaps to 5 mil mid or another 4.5 goalie to rotate.

      3. Malkmus
        • 13 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Morning. I'm currently on 3 x 4.0 which gives me this:

        Hendo (4.0)
        Gvardiol - Mykolenko - Faes (Johnson - Harwood B)
        Salah - Foden - Palmer - MGW (Winks)
        Isak - Havertz - Watson

    15. diesel001
      • 8 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Latest draft. Not much movement from the one I posted last week as popular players are still the same.

      Raya - Turner
      Saliba - Gvardiol - Porro - Andersen - Burn
      Palmer - Gordon - Foden - Eze - Nkunku
      Watkins - Isak - Pedro

      Top two most selected GKs
      Top five most selected DFs
      Four of the top five most selected MFs
      Three of the top four most selected FWs
      Fits within 100m budget and max three players per team

      1. R.C.
        • 7 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Pedro is a doubt

    16. Warby84
      • 9 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Is this crazy?

      Sanchez
      Castagne Munoz Gvardiol Davis Barco
      Salah Rogers Odegaard Nkunku Hudson O
      Haaland Isak Muniz

      I may start with this, thoughts?

      1. Warby84
        • 9 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Davis/Livramento

      2. TheBiffas
        • 4 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        Solid!

    17. TheBiffas
      • 4 Years
      10 months, 2 days ago

      Looks like Ismaila Sarr is heading to Palace - Haaland + Salah is looking more viable by the minute with all these budget options!

    18. Mother Farke
      • 1 Year
      10 months, 2 days ago

      a) Foden + Watkins + £3.0 in the bank
      b) Diaby/6.5 + Haaland

      Heavily leaning towards A even though it means I won't have Haaland to captain v Ipswich.

      1. TheBiffas
        • 4 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        You're gonna be bricking it when it comes round to GW2. Just get Haaland

      2. Merlin the Wraith
        • 8 Years

        Diaby off to Saudi

        1. Mother Farke

      "Slot favours a 4-2-3-1 formation but it sometimes resembles a 4-3-3, largely due to Calvin Stengs’ free-roaming midfield role."
      Stengs...apps = 26, goals =6, assists = 12, key pass per game = 2.4

      Szoboszlai (£6.5m) essential if he takes on the Stengs role?

      1. The Mentaculus
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 2 days ago

        I am definitely on the lookout for whether Szoboszlai/ Mac Allister takes that role (or even Gakpo?). Think it does potentially bring them much more into the game, FPL-wise

    20. Onemorespin
      • 1 Year
      10 months, 2 days ago

      A) Foden Saka 4.5
      B) Palmer, Bruno F, Rogers

      No haaland in either

        Flekken-Virginia would gain you 0.5 to upgrade Pedro - Muniz?

      I didn't realise that Salah only scored 6 goals and provided 5 assists in the second part of 23/24 (4 goals & 4 assists in his 12 PL games after returning from the ANC). Good fixtures or not, I'm going to find it difficult splashing out 12.5m for him judging on what he's achieved since New Years Day.

        I have him but those stats are a concern. I’ve seen plenty of people drop him in their second drafts and I might be one of them. I would get Trent if I went no Salah.
