Three-time top 200 finisher Lateriser reveals his current Wildcard draft along with his thought process for Gameweek 8.

FPL 2025/26 first draft team reveals: Triple Forest, Everton + Chelsea

It has been a while since I’ve been on a Wildcard during the international break, and so far I’m quite enjoying the slow drip process where I’m treating myself to long stares at the Fixture Ticker and extra doses of extended highlights which date back quite a bit on YouTube. 

As things stand, this is where I am at with my Wildcard team, although there are a few picks and variations that I am still contemplating.

ARSENAL

Arsenal's defence: An enduring obstacle or a false dawn

A good place to start is which three Arsenal picks do I want to go with?

After looking at their game against West Ham United and seeing the kind of positions Jurrien Timber (£5.9m) was taking up, is he even a defender?

He has the second-highest number of touches in the final third among all Arsenal players, which is also the third-highest among all defenders. He is also tied top for shots in the box with Daniel Munoz (£5.6m) and Riccardo Calafiori (£5.7m), and has the highest non-penalty expected goal involvement (NPxGI).

Timber and the defensive contribution (DefCon) winning Gabriel Magalhaes (£6.3m) is where I am starting, and when talking about an Arsenal team who have 50% of their goals from set-pieces this season, plus 40% of the shots they have taken from such situations, it makes it a comfortable place to begin.

Further forward, Bukayo Saka (£9.9m) has looked very sharp of late, and I feel like there’s a confident big-dog air about him this season. 

“When I grabbed the ball I wanted to take the penalty, so that was my thoughts at that moment. We’ll keep our conversations in house for now, I won’t say much more.” – Bukayo Saka

The first line from that sentence is fairly telling in my opinion, in terms of him being the decision maker (he’s also captain when Martin Odegaard (£7.9m) is not on the pitch), but even if we presume that he only has a 50% penalty share, it makes him a very good pick.

GOALKEEPER/DEFENDERS

FPL notes: Strand-Larsen injury update + 1

I have Nick Pope (£5.1m) as my goalkeeper, simply because Newcastle United are a reliable defence and Pope is a nailed-on entry point into that backline. They sit second for expected goals conceded (xGC) so far and I like Pope’s points potential as he’s good for clean sheets, saves and bonus points.

I also have Marcos Senesi (£5.0m) in my defence, who I don’t need to say much about as he’s still offering good value for money with DefCon potential, set piece threat and Bournemouth sit third for xGC so far this season. I also like the fact that they have no Europe, which will eventually come through.

Joachim Andersen (£4.5m) is also in my team. He’s competing with Chris Richards (£4.5m), but having looked at rotation, Andersen is more useful in the weeks I might need him to cover, and he also has better DefCon potential. While Richards arguably plays for a better defence, I do wonder about the impact Europe will have on their clean sheet potential, and if at all I am in the market to purchase a Crystal Palace defender later, there are arguably three better ones to get.

Joe Rodon (£4.1m) just offers great value and is useful on a Gameweek 9 Bench Boost.

      Got him too.

      Should Salah start bagging some goals I’ll have a great season!
      Also unlikely to sell anytime soon (unless he is benched).

      My team is now setup for a 5-3-2 (4-4-2) pre AFCON, and I still think Salah + 4.5 def can outscore Saka/Foden - Saka/Pedro - Saka/Gyokeres - Saka/Bruno or some toget duo, but not as optimistic as a few GWs ago.

            Yes there’s a certain one who seems to be getting increasingly desperate. He’s putting out so many stories trying to influence people into matching his team.

            Content creation has had such a negative impact on the game on the whole but there are still the odd couple of people worth following.

              Some CCs are still talking about Gyokeres pen share. First it was Saka holding the ball for him, now it's him taking the away pens. Even heard some say that Pedro whispered something to Enzo before taking the pen and therefore Pedro might be on pens.

          Its mostly except for the future fixtures which is still a bit of a grey area after 7 games, reactive rather than predictive. Model says this based on this (that happened). Bookies say this based on where the money is going, based on recent form most of the time. Nobody is willing to stick their neck on the line and make predictions, I'd go as far as saying most don't even have an opinion. The models take that away and reduce actually decision making to a coin toss in most cases

        This trend wont last. By jan or feb onwards normal service of def conceding without defcon points and mid/forwards earning more will result in 343 or 352 as best formation. WC next year so top def wont play as hard to avoid injuries and forward will play better to book seats on flight.

      The game has changed he will still do some maverick stuff during the season.
      Content creators are the same as the rest of us budget form fixtures after that anyone who has any knowledge of the game will pick the same 7-10 starting 11.
      The bit that annoys me over the last few years is I usually plan this stuff 4-6 weeks out and then it just get spoon fed to the masses. There isn’t really any edge to studying the game ourselves anymore hence my decreasing ranks over the last few years.

      I honestly believe he's lost confidence in himself. Wasn't he copying Zoph last season certainly up to the first wildcard I seem to recall someone highlighting. He's always been very much all or nothing type player. I think he also tends to be different just for the sake of it like in a " look at me everyone" type of way. He's not been the same player for ages now and it shows in his ranks. Lateriser stopped rising. He's just known as "Late" now lol

    Random thought to improve the team value mechanism.

    Example: I've had Semenyo since 7.0. He is now 8.0, and my sell price is 7.5. The problem with this increase in team value, is that it is in paper only. Quite often those that rise the most are season keepers (ignoring chip-mania in the last few GWs). Semenyo could rise to 10m but it won't help diddly with my

          I think there is too many things making the game easier as it is 5 transfer for Afcon that we dont need, double chips add changing TV rules to that we can all just afford whoever we want - how is that interesting? I still think a decision to plan to sell Semenyo for a few bad fixtures knowing you are pretty much losing the value not gaining it when you need to buy again makes it a tough decision but more fun.

      I finished 3rd in the world many years ago when it was around 3m players. To this day I've no idea how I did it. There definitely wasn't the info that everyone has now though so I guess that was a big reason. I remember captaining Drogba in GW1 who was a doubt to start because of an injury he had. Nowadays everyone would probably know he was going to start with team leaks etc but back then I just went with a gut feeling and he ended up starting and scoring a hat-trick. Never really looked back after that as I was already high in the rankings.

          No, back then it was only a prize for the winner. I was never leading and with a realistic chance of winning anyway but disappointing to still end up with nothing for finishing 3rd.
