Pre-Season

Every FPL player price revealed as 2019/20 game launches

Fantasy Premier League has opened for 2019/20 and managers can now pick their first team for the new season.

Those hunting for a low ID should sign up as soon as possible.

With the release of the game also comes the remaining prices, which have been highly sought after this summer.

Over Wednesday and Thursday, we were given 10 by the Official FPL Twitter account.

On the first day, we got Lukasz Fabianski (£5.0m), Andrew Robertson (£7.0m), Matt Ritchie (£5.5m), Ryan Fraser (£7.5m) and Ricardo Pereira (£6.0m).

Then on Thursday, we were treated to confirmation of Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) as a midfielder, as well as Jack Grealish (£6.0m), Callum Wilson (£8.0m), Teemu Pukki (£6.5m) and a kindly-priced Raúl Jiménez (£7.5m).

Here is a break-down of the most expensive players in each position:

Most expensive GKs

  • Alisson – £6.0m
  • Ederson – £6.0m
  • David de Gea – £5.5m
  • Kepa Arrizabalaga – £5.5m
  • Hugo Lloris – £5.5m
  • Jordan Pickford – £5.5m

Alisson and Ederson are understandably the most expensive goalkeepers with £6.0m price tags.

Jordan Pickford (£5.5m) joins the premium category to deter any managers who were interested in using him to cover Everton’s early fixtures.

Below that is a difficult choice for Fantasy managers with Lukasz Fabianski, Ben Foster, Vicente Guaita and Rui Patricio all increased to £5.0m.

Returning to the £4.5m department are the Burnley goalkeepers Tom Heaton and Nick Pope who could offer something if we knew which of them was first-choice at this stage.

Mat Ryan (£4.5m) is probably the most secure budget option at this point given the fixtures and uncertainty over shot-stoppers at Aston Villa, Bournemouth, Burnley, Sheffield United and Southampton.

Most expensive DEFs

  • Trent Alexander-Arnold – £7.0m
  • Andrew Robertson – £7.0m
  • Virgil van Dijk – £6.5m
  • Marcos Alonso – £6.5m
  • Aymeric Laporte – £6.5m

Perhaps one of the biggest reveals of the full game launch is the fact that Trent Alexander-Arnold has been handed the same price as Andrew Robertson.

That is probably good news for the latter, as a price-tag of £6.5m for his colleague would have effectively ruled him out as an option.

The fact that both Liverpool full-backs are £7.0m means that Fantasy managers will probably face a tough decision over which to own for Gameweek 1.

As the two players combine for a total of £14.0m, a double-up might not be to everybody’s tastes.

However, Virgil van Dijk (£6.5m) coming in a £0.5m cheaper than both of them could help those looking to save some money.

Most expensive MIDs

  • Mohamed Salah – £12.5m
  • Raheem Sterling – £12.0m
  • Sadio Mané – £11.5m
  • Kevin de Bruyne – £9.5m
  • Leroy Sané – £9.5m
  • Son Heung-min – £9.5m

The key story here is that Sadio Mané will start the season at £11.5m, which is just £1.0m short of Mohamed Salah (£12.5m).

With the Egyptian dropping down £0.5m from £13.0m and Mané rising by £2.0m, the pendulum of Fantasy ownership will surely swing firmly in his direction.

In 2018/19, Mané did match Salah’s goal tally but he struggled to score away from home with much regularity.

He also failed to record a single assist at home.

The extra £1.0m for Salah in order to have a hand in Liverpool penalties, assists at Anfield and goals on the road, seems very worth paying at this stage.

The Egyptian’s biggest competitor for the 2019/20 season will probably be Raheem Sterling (£12.0m).

The fact that he has risen to £12.0m could make it harder to include both of them in Fantasy squads this year.

Most expensive FWDs

  • Sergio Aguero – £12.0m
  • Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – £11.0m
  • Harry Kane – £11.0m
  • Roberto Firmino – £9.5m
  • Gabriel Jesus – £9.5m
  • Alexandre Lacazette – £9.5m

Sergio Aguero (£12.0m) comes in as the most expensive forward in FPL this season.

However, the biggest story is a huge drop in price for Harry Kane (£11.0m).

That development will almost certainly see his popularity increase ahead of Gameweek 1, even if his initial fixtures are mixed.

Other Key Developments

Lucas Digne has been priced up at £6.0m, while Seamus Coleman is £5.5m. That could make for an interesting choice ahead of Gameweek 1.

Matt Doherty has been pushed all the way up to £6.0m and Jonny to £5.5m. Meanwhile, Rui Patrício is £5.0m. Covering the Wolves defence is going to be harder to do this season.

Liverpool defenders Joe Gomez, Joel Matip and Dejan Lovren have all come in at £5.5m. If one of those nails down a slot, they could be good value.

After a terrible 2018/19 campaign, Alexis Sánchez has been handed a £7.0m price tag.

The Chelsea attack has been very kindly priced in Eden Hazard’s absence. Olivier Giroud has come in at £7.0m while Pedro and Willian cost the same.

    Should’ve just waited until July 1st to launch so that they can add in all the players coming back from loans

      Earlier they launch = more clicks

  2. Zladan

    Robbo, TAA, Sterling, Salah, Aguero is proving difficult to squeeze in.

    1. CostaCoffee
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Going without Kun, might drop Salah too
      Also went VvD over Robbo

      1. POLSKA GOLA
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        I went Robbo, VVD and Salah

    FPL site blocked at my work, think I managed to sneak on my phone and get a low enough ID before putting my phone back away. No idea what my ID is like. Need to tinker!

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Should be a 4-figured ID. I really didn't want to have to remember more than 4 numbers 🙂

    These prices are disgusting

    I wouldn’t worry about bugs as long as you can pick your team, just be happy for the early launch. Bugs will be fixed 🙂

      So you're now the FFS Will Grissom insect expert then?

    Right, who's ready for my RMT??!!

    Ederson (Button)
    Robbo, TAA, Zinchenko (Bednerak, Kelly)
    Salah, Sterling, Fraser, Milivojevic, Dendonker
    Jiminez, King (Nketiah)

    Wasn't planning on starting with Wolves but the prices are right, and I've had to go King over Wilson.

    1. CostaCoffee
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Why go Mili over Zaha? Zaha will pretty much get all of the assists for Milis pens + his goal output

      1. Andy_Social
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Good point- hadn't noticed Zaha's price. Pretty much just slammed in my pencilled-in squad. Yeah, Zaha over Mili then.

      2. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Zaha won't be at Palace in GW1.

    5.0, 4.5
    7.0, 5.5, 3x4.5
    12.5(C), 9.5, 2x 7.0, 4.5

    Jonny at 5.5m?! Blimey

    1. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Will erase him with my rubber - Jonny.

    2. CostaCoffee
      • 10 Years

      No way

  10. FPL_Hazards
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone just picking a team of penalty takers? Apart from at the back obvs

  11. ★Kuntheman★
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Siggy Siggy Siggy can’t you see, sometimes your fixtures, price, and pen taker status in VAR-era PL just hypnotize me

  12. Top 210 Club

    Zaha back to mid!

    I see they've gone to town with the prizes again!

  14. Beatle

    Surprised Salah wasn't reclassified as a forward. He started as the final point numerous times last season

    1. Beatle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      *focal

    2. adams_6
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      But not enough times.
      He mostly lined up as a winger, just like Mane

    3. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      If Salah is a forward, so is Mane, Sterling, Son, Moura, Zaha etc

  15. thunder_mike

    First draft.

    Lloris
    Robbo TAA Laporte Digne
    Sterling Siggy Bilva Neves
    Kane DCL Long
    Button Long 4.5mid 4.0def

    1. Andy_Social

      Two long!

      1. Marmalade Forest

        Shane and Burnley defender innit

  16. RUUD!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    I think the 3rd Liverpool player is such a tough choice, Mane or TAA/Robbo. Personally going for double up on defence I think

  17. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Ahh, the 1st draft

    Ryan
    VVD Robbo Laporte Digne
    Salah Sterling Redmond Zaha
    Jota Wilson

    Button Hanley Hayden Nketiah

    1. Bury94

      That bench is terrifying

  18. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
    • 7 Years

    Harvey Barnes is so unfairly priced. Wanted him at 5.0 again 🙁 5.5 would have been fair, 6.0 is stupid.

  19. FPL_Hazards
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    How long before everyone finally realises they cant start with 5 good defenders?

    1. Wally banter
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Begovic

      Stones, TAA, Robbo, Trippier, Coleman

      Richa Zaha Sterling Salah

      King

      Good spot that very tasty

  22. Witty Pun: Not good at this…

    Jahanbaksh at 6.0! Feck off, zero goals and assists and he gets higher than 5.0?

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      New manager who has a good success with that type of player, albeit in the Swedish league lol

  23. Poseidon.

    AWBEASTY priced as a palace player

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Should be lower then

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        This.
        He'd be 5m at Palace, he's 5.5m because all the United defenders are.

    2. Thescaff
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Nonsense

        Transfer isn't official yet

    3. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Because Palace are a better team than united

  24. FPL_Hazards

    Mark must have had the site stats through and realised only 2.5 people have been on here since GW38 and rushed the FPL site live, hence the bugs

  25. Ask Yourself
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    King (6.5), Andone (5) and AVL striker Wesley will hopefully be (5.5) like Kodjia.

    These are my early shouts for a bargain striker, maybe Abraham too if he comes in sub 7 for Chelsea

    1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Wesley doesn't score much in Belgium, doubt he'll be worth a lot in the Premier League in terms of fantasy points.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Depends on Villa’s style this season. If it mirrors last year he will do well, great link up striker and target for the box

    2. dbeck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      King and Andone in my first draft. Keep an eye on Andone pre-season, could phase aging Murray out under new attacking manager.

  26. Jimmy Boy

    FPL site has crashed lmao

  27. Witty Pun: Not good at this…

    Diogo Jota will be the 6.5 striker of choice, once Wolves get over Europe.

  28. Lav
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    CHO 6m. Worth a look, I am hearing that he could be back sooner than expected to start the season.

    1. CostaCoffee
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Won’t be around for for first few gameweeks I’d say. Won’t be starting anyway with no pre season

    2. Rotation's Alter Ego
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Definitely agree.

      Very keen to buy him, think he could turn into a real steal this season, once he's back from injury. He's progressing through rehab well, but still not sure if he'll make it back before GW 5

    3. The 5% Team

      on watchlist for now

        4 years, 9 months ago

        Im aware.

        He’s travelling well and on course for an early come back, which could be time for the first game.

        Can always swap him out if need be.

      I wonder is this JWP’s breakout year - deadball whizard that he is
