    If given a choice would you rather have

    1. Gvardiol + Gabriel
    or
    2. Salah

          he's asking because its about accessing certain players. He can only access one or the other

            It should be 2 defs + mid in both options for fair comparison

        Basically a question of keeping funds in defence or mid

          I think 2 premium defenders is too much and I'd prefer salah but it's not as simple as that since you'll have to sell someone else too.

    Does anyone think that Everton will concede fewer clean sheets without Onana.

    Any merit going with Bednarek over TWB? Less chance of a price drop and he's only going to play the ofd game.

      Ofd game is key here. Not making one bit of sense aside, just ask yourself who will keep more clean sheets. Maybe even use last season's table vs. a newly promoted aide

      No premium midfielders may cause a future problem if you want to get one in - e.g. 2 or 3 transfers to get a Foden, Saka, Palmer etc.

      Currently on Porro, but Gvardiol is tempting me. Rotation risk, but high ceiling if he's once again deployed as a wingback.

  10. GW1 Bench Boost?
    Moxon
    • 10 Years
    8 months, 6 days ago

    I have never bench boosted in GW1!

    For those looking into it, or those brave souls who have done it in the past, what is the strategy? Is it to BB in GW1 then WC in GW2?

    It's not really my style, but what is the general consensus on such a strategy in a season where we will see less DGWs and BGWs?

    1. Club-De-Belon
      • 3 Years
      8 months, 6 days ago

      Well, it would be best if you could BB in GW1 without wildcard. WC can surely be utilized better later in season when we have more information on how teams set up, what roles individual players cover, where are cheap bargains etc...

      So maybe try to find out if you can make a BB draft that is decent even for a few more GWs.

      Nevertheless, it might be find to do a WC in GW2, but then you have to be more careful with transfers later on 🙂

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      8 months, 6 days ago

      Way I see it is you target the best looking fixtures, should get a boost in points allowing you to mentally attack the next set of fixtures (knowing your not chasing) and then build some transfers for a mini WC once you understand the form building. Having the ability to gather transfers means you can play different strategies

      Gw1 BB has worked well as its the week where it costs the least. By that I mean you dont need to carry transfers, or use a wildcard to achieve it. You only need to hold players for 1 week..

      People talk about bench boosting in a DGW but it rarely works out once the damage in the surrounding weeks is considered.

      Good be better this year

      I've done gw1 BB a few times, one time was a big success with the others being meh

      I think an early WC is necessary when using it unless you risk a BB with a cheap as possible bench, on the plus side a gw3 or thereabouts WC this year is probably not a bad idea since some big hitters like Foden and some other late returnees should be starting games by then

  11. Club-De-Belon
    • 3 Years
    8 months, 6 days ago

    I do not plan to use chips any time soon, so I went with this plan:
    Pope (Flekken)
    TAA - Porro - Konsa - Barco - Sugawara
    Son - Odegaard - Eze - Szoboszlai - Nkunku
    Watkins - Isak - Muniz
    3.0 ITB
    GW2: Odegaard to Foden or KDB (2,0 ITB left)
    GW3: Porro > Saliba (1,0 ITB left)
    4+5 : roll or jump on cheap bandwagon
    after GW6: get in Saka, Gvardiol (or other MCI defender) at least + looking forward switch of Nkunku + Szoboszlai to Garnacho/Diallo+Paqueta/JWP/Bowen

    oh yeah, I could do better than Szoboszlai as I will have 1.0 spare but I worry about rotations

    Disclamation : I decided to go without Haland but not without Salah because I do not consider Salah to be a default option to have. There is no way I am getting him for 12.5.

    1. Club-De-Belon
      • 3 Years

      I could do Szobo+Muniz to Pereira + Gakpo but I think Muniz is just much better FPL option. Unless Szobo gets dropped into a deeper role in pre-season, I go with this punt.

    Goalkeepers are rather tricky this season imo, especially with new bps. Currently on Raya so as to cover Arsenal, but might as well go cheaper.

    1. Club-De-Belon
      • 3 Years
      8 months, 6 days ago

      True. It seems they want us to use 5.0 instead of 4.5s more, just so the whole game does not diverge into saving money there.

      Raya is nice because of cheap entry to ARS defence, but you know he won´t make many saves or get BPS. It´s going to mostly be a game of 2p or 6p.

    Raya + Munoz or 4.5 GK + Gabriel/Saliba

    Can’t help but think the former is better especially considering lack of goal threat from Saliba and concerns over Gabriel’s xMins. No clear 4.5 GK and an early wildcard will mean you don’t need to carry Raya for long (until the best 4.5 GK option emerges)

    Looks like the Brentford double up is the way to go in goal. Valdimarsson is nailed to step in should Flekken get injured for be dropped and it's a nice 4.5/4.0 combo
