With Gameweek 9 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) nearing, our pundits are starting to finalise their teams before Friday’s deadline.

FPL General, who has three top 500 finishes to his name, is fully committed to going without Mohamed Salah (£14.3m) and Erling Haaland (£14.7m) this season. He shares his latest thoughts below.

Make sure you sign up for the new season to get all the Member-only articles, tools and features to make 2025/26 your best FPL campaign yet!

GAMEWEEK 8 REVIEW

FPL General’s Gameweek 9 team reveal + transfer plans

Does anyone have a decent forward that I could sign on loan? What a disaster these have been in recent weeks.

Hopefully, a brace in midweek brace will see Viktor Gyokeres (£9.0m) kick on and do what we expected him to do at Arsenal. As much as I can’t wait to sell Joao Pedro (£7.5m), he’s going to survive for at least one more week, due to other priorities. 

Captain Bukayo Saka (£10.0m) somehow managed a 14-pointer without any attacking returns, which was very sweet. Bruno Fernandes (£8.9m) did the business by setting up the winner over Liverpool, while Daniel Munoz (£5.6m) registered two assists. What a Fantasy gem he is.

Aside from those three, it wasn’t a great Gameweek. Fingers crossed that this one will be more productive.

    Anyone else think a good addition to this site would be, you can’t post a question unless you reply to say, 10 posts?

      James can be very explosive but can fall over from touchign a feather, Timber will get injured at some point but can carry on after a few bandages and will consistenly get you points. The choice is yours

        If he is not fit and one of the 4 above step in then it's possible the remaining 3 score 10 points. Thats all it needs
