How Man City assets changed towards the end of 2018/19

Manchester City options are likely to form the bedrock of Fantasy Premier League teams again this season.

However, selecting the right ones might prove challenging in the early part of the season.

In this latest article, we take a look at how they performed last season and what trends were set at different stages of the campaign.

As this uses data from the Fantasy Football Scout members area, only those who have signed up for the 2019/20 season can access it in full.

    A) Allison and 4.5 (Which??)
    B) Ryan and VvD

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      B.

      VvD has goal threat and bonus opportunity.

      1. Odikostar
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Ryan is also good for bonus, so B for sure

    2. Hog Roast Junkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      B but with Heaton

    Good morning all.
    Advice please.
    Pretty set on this but unexpectedly, I have 0.5 to play with.

    Ryan (Pope)
    VVD Digne Laporte (Dunk) 4.0
    Salah Sterling KDB Perez Barkley
    Jota Adams (Wickham)

    Would you:
    a) upgrade Pope to Heaton, though he’ll rarely be required - never sure about keeper rotation
    b) upgrade Wickham to a playing 5 forward (who?)
    c) upgrade Dunk to a playing 5 defender (Holebas?)
    d) upgrade VVD to Trent?
    e) something else?

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      D

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Or E: Save it for the future

    3. RichRover
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I'd upgrade Pope

    4. Thomas Jerome Newton
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Upgrade Adams?

    5. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Keep the .5 very useful early on

  3. jimmy.floyd
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Jota or Deulofeu?

    1. RichRover
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Jota

    2. Thomas Jerome Newton
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I'm going Deulofeu early doors...

      1. Thomas Jerome Newton
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Hmmm.. I might rethink depending on pre-season.

      2. Shineonme
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Read somewhere Deulofeu is injured.

    3. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      J, D not played possible injured

    4. James H
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      With so little between them, think it has to be Jota given Deulofeu hasn't been risked for the last couple of friendlies. And Gray has impressed, so safer to go Jota, who I think will get more points over the season anyway.

    5. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Neither
      Gray played well pre-season
      Jota has EL

    6. Roy Rovers
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      D is injured and hardly played PS.

    7. HeDoesntWantIt
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Jota to be subbed for Gibbs-White on 65 mins every game.

  4. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    How does she look?

    Heaton,4.0
    VVD,TAA,Digne,Femenia,Rico
    Salah,Sterling,Perez,Fraser,Barkley
    Jota,Wilson,Greenwood

    1. tricpic
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Very similar to mine
      Will Greenwood play? I’ve gone Wickham. Toying with Nketia too.

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Not sure yet, going 3-5-2. Wickham nailed?

        1. tricpic
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          No not at all - Ayew first choice

  5. Pique and De Bruyne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Think i’m settled on this barring any last minute issues, thoughts please.

    Henderson
    TAA - VVD - Digne - Zinch
    Salah - KDB - Perez - Robinson
    Auba - Wilson

    Stekelenburg - Dendoncker - Targett - Greenwood

    Would appreciate any input good or bad cheers.

    1. DantheManinaPan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Strong

    2. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Nice team, very risky going without Sterling but you know that

      1. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers and yeah not happy about loosing Sterling but was between him and Salah think it’s more balanced this way.

    3. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Very strong, like Aubameyang! I’ve got Kane, Sterling & King instead of Auba, De Bruyne & Wilson but Coleman instead of Digne, liking 4-4-2 this year, just tryna find the right 5.5m MF, currently on Robinson too

      1. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        That’s a strong trio as well, think it’s been tricky this year got to make some sacrifices. Robinson could be great if nailed and oop too.

        1. Frank Koscielny
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Would you prefer a) Robinson + 0.5 or b) Pereyra?

          1. Pique and De Bruyne
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            Definitely Robinson at the moment, would say more nailed, good form and oop. Don’t think Pereyra has even had a pre season due to Copa America.

            1. Frank Koscielny
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 8 months ago

              Cheers! Robinson it is then. Quite the differential as well

              1. Pique and De Bruyne
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 8 months ago

                Yeah only in 0.4 of teams at the minute.

    4. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      V nice. Mine is pretty similar but opting for a 352 with Bilva and 6.5 over Digne and Wilson. Not considered this and did like Wilson tbf. Might have to have a fiddle 😉

      1. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Value seems to be in defence this season don’t wanna get 5 at the back but been tempted, so compromised at 4. Glad to give you some food for thought, happy tinkering.

    5. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Rather Sterling in mid than Aud up front

      1. Pique and De Bruyne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Could have Sterling and Vardy instead of KDB and Auba but would need to find 0.5 from somewhere.

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Keep the Aubam train lad

          1. Pique and De Bruyne
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            Plan was after a couple of weeks KDB < Son and Auba < Aguero depending on how things are going.

    6. Pique and De Bruyne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Thanks for all the feedback chaps much appreciated and good luck for this season.

  6. Professor Abel X
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    First RMT, grateful for any comments:
    Pope 4.0
    TAA Robbo Coleman Stones 4.0
    Salah Sterling Siggy Perez Dend
    Wilson Jota Greenwood

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      U happy with Everton pre-season and Siggy?

      1. Klaren
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        There are 4.0m playing defenders so he'll likely have 2 playing bench players which should be enough.

      2. Maddamotha
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Does pre-season only count for every other team than Liverpool?

    2. polis
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Strong team. Only one playing bench player but I'm sure you know that.

    3. WVA
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Why has Stones started appearing in teams?
      Jota could be a rotation risk? So much value in 6m forwards, Ings, Adams, Rodriguez, Wesley, Linton etc.
      Looks good otherwise.

      1. Professor Abel X
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        City not signing a CB, i think if he stays fit he’s fairly nailed. I’m happy that Jota is nailed for the first few weeks too, why wouldn’t he be?

    4. jimmyabs1987
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Downgrade Siggi to McGinn and go big on striker

      1. Professor Abel X
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Why McGinn?

  7. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on these two teams, two or three big guns.......
    Any improvement you can see?

    Pope
    Trent VVD Coleman Zinchenko/?
    Salah Sterling Perez McGinn
    Kane King/Jota

    Button, Dendoncker, Greenwood, Lundstram/Rico

    Or

    Ederson
    Trent, Virgil, Digne, Zinchenko/?
    Salah, Sterling, Moura, McGinn
    Wilson, Jota/Wood

    Button, Dendoncker, Greenwood, Lundstram/Rico

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Bench needs more love

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Pope/Heaton is absolute FPL gift

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Is Pope needed?

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Rotating 4.5 gift

          1. g40steve
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 8 months ago

            Cheers 🙂

      2. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I could switch Coleman to Guilbert & swap Zinchenko to Laporte?

    3. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I think Ederson is a waste at 6.0m, rather a 4.5 gk and upgrade Zinchenko to Laporte

      1. g40steve
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Had two cheapies last year & had headache, but better selection this year...Heaton or Pope.

  8. jimmyabs1987
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Ok first season ever I am going 4-5-1 vs my trusted 3-5-2, I don’t feel the stirking options at 6.5 give anywhere near enough nailed and obvious performers.

    Latest draft (8th draft)

    Heaton (button)
    Digne, Laporte, TAA, Cathcart (Kelly)
    Salah, Sterling, Perez, KDB, Robinson
    Wilson (Greenwood, Long).

    Only think I want to maybe change is Laporte to Robinson and downgrade long to 4.5 but not sure if I want double Pool defence vs spreading the risk. Could also do Zinchenko instead of Laporte but where to spend the extra 1 million and will he play?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      6k average last 3 playing 343/352/442. Ain't broke don't fix it

      1. jimmyabs1987
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Why did you have to spoil my master plan 🙁

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Prefer a 352, not keen on Zinch at all and would maybe go a premium forward over Sterling for first few weeks

      1. jimmyabs1987
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Why premium forward over sterling?

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          I personally love Aubams fixtures and feel KDB and Bilva will somewhat cover Sterling as wasn't going to captain him

        2. pingissimus
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          One possible reason for veering off Salah Sterling is that you get more captaincy options with Kane Auba Vardy if a Fulham type defence appears - just more good attacks to play with.

          City Liverpool will always be decent captain options of course but there’ll be a number of weeks when they’re not obviously the best. Week 2 is a case in point perhaps.

  9. screamer73
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Pick 2 (For draft league)

    A. McGinn
    B. Trossard
    C. Ceballos
    D. Robinson
    F. Fornals

    1. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Meyer & McGinn, if Meyer takes then Robinson

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      McGinn. Rest irrelevant

    3. g40steve
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      A but keeping an eye on C could be a train worth jumping on IF

  10. manu4life99
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    A) Digne + 5.5def
    B) Robbo + 4.5def
    C) TAA + 4.5def

    Best 5.5m def WanB?

    1. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      B or C for me.

      In the long term Wan Bisakka seems he might the best 5.5 option but if looking for shorter term Coleman or Zinchenko might possibly do better in the first GWs imo.

  11. Klaren
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    A) Moura, Wilson, Lundstram, Pope
    B) Ibe, Rashford, Digne, Ederson

    Would appreciate any input! Thanks!

    Feel free to suggest any changes to either option (0 itb)

  12. ritzyd
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on Abraham?
    At 7m he looks a big upgrade on the 6.5m strikers - has scored goals at prem level before and seems to have that spot locked to begin with at least

    1. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      in my team atm but makes me nervous - would rather have Kean if @ 7

    2. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Only one goal and one assist in pre-season though, seems to be holding the ball up and bringing others into play a lot. Could be worth a punt though for sure.

    3. Funny Face
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I think he could be an option but I'd wait a couple of games to see how things develop for Chelsea. They appear like they may get a few goals but it is less than clear who the leading lights will be.

    4. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Bad news for Chelsea if Abraham is really their best striker

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        why? 60 goals in 130 games (mostly at championship level), got all the attributes to be a top player, 21 years old. just needs the opportunity.

        in past seasons gone by Chelsea have let a player like this go, only to see them prosper elsewhere and ultimately end up at a rival (KdB, Salah, Lukaku)

  13. Funny Face
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    What do you want to see from the Charity Shield today? There is often the chance for someone to come out of nowhere put in a performance and end up in half the starting teams.

    I'd like confirmation of Zinchenko either way. I'd like to see a City team based around De Bruyne to give me some faith in him as a cheaper alternative to Sterling.

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Bilva on rw and cutting in causing a lot of threat. KDB to have freedom with rodri playing and Robo/TAA to put a few decent balls ib

    2. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      No injuries would be good. Other than that I just hope Liverpool win and everyone stays relatively quiet.

      1. Shineonme
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        My prediction
        Man City 2-1 Liverpool
        I also think Man City will win the Title again and by at least 8 pts.
        Hope I'm wrong because I'm a Man Utd fan.

        1. Gregor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          I think City will win the league by a bigger margin this year too.

    3. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I'm not sure if today's match will be very useful to decide on Zinchenko. He'll most probably start the match today, but question with him is how much rotation threat he is under from Angelino (and Cancelo if signed).

    4. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I want to see Salah perform well. If he doesnt hes out for Sterling

    5. Funny Face
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      If Bernardo Silva started looking like appoints threat that would cause me to have a major rethink. I had in my team last year and enjoyed his occasional returns. He was at a lower price and I haven't been convinced he will justify the increase with returns yet.

    6. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      KDB/Bernardo/Silva will be interesting to see, if one of them scores then we could see a few changes to RMTs - Sane too possibly

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        oh yeah Sterling v Salah assuming he plays

    7. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Sterling to be quiet to put folk off

      KDB quiet and deep so he puts me off

      Sterling slight hammy twinge so it makes my life easier

    8. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      What ever happens in the game the aftermath on here is going to be hilariously manic!

  14. martyhan
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on this please

    Pope button
    KWP, vvd, robbo, zinch, (lundstrum)
    Salah Barkley Perez Sterling (dendoncker)
    King Kane (greenwood)

    1. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Do you think Barkley is nailed? Other than that, good team, would prefer 2 4.5s instead of KWP though

    2. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Really good to say you’ve got the three big hitters in there, so long as KWP and Barkley turn up. Think I’d go Heaton over Pope though given the early fixtures.

    3. Prawn

      Looks good. I had Barkley as he has the potential to be great value but having him made me nervous..

    4. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Don't like Zinch, King or KWP personally.

  15. Prawn
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Any thoughts or ideas on this setup?

    Pope
    VVD-Coleman-Ake
    Salah-Sterling(c)-Fraser-Perez-Sigi
    Wood-Wilson

    Ryan -Dunk- Lundstram- Greenwood

    1. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Looks good but I'd prefer to have one of TAA or Robertson over VVD. I realise that it creates a problem with the additional 0.5 required though.

      1. Prawn
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I just think 7 mil is pushing it for a defender and VVD is 100% guaranteed minutes

  16. NUFCAndrew
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Repost. Wilson is locked

    A: Laporte + Barkley

    B: Zinchenko + Fraser

    1. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I have B with Wilson

    I think Rashford might be the hidden gem we're all overlooking. He's in fantastic form. Clearly the first choice at MUN right now. Their fixtures are not the greatest, but he's a top striker when in the mood. 8.5m is a very fair price. If he delivers like a top 6 striker, he's worth 10m.

    1. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Quite like the look of Martial at £7.5 actually.

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Both look nice but yeah martial looks like offering ridiculous value now he is nailed undisputedly

      2. Klaren
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        As a United fan, while I think Martial is the better player between the two, the position that Rashford plays (lone striker) makes him a better asset for fpl compared to Martial imo. Martial cuts inside from the left but he doesn't get inside the box touches as much as Rashford as Martial is usually the one who has to create the chances himself, he doesn't get free tap-in kind of chances that Rahford gets.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Wilson/Fraser -> Rashford/Martial could be on the cards soonish, wait and see though I reckon

      1. amit1964
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        wilson +fraser will much more points then martial +rashford......a lot more

    3. Epic Fail

      'Yep, 'if'.

    4. Udo

      Would you rather have him or Vardy?

    5. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Not consistent

      Very wasteful player

      Overrated massively imo

    6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 13 Years

      He's a good option if united add more creativity to their squad

    7. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      He's rubbish.

    8. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Its actually laughable that United have Rashford as their number one striker. Compare him to the strikers at the other top clubs and its clear that hes several levels below.

  18. COYR
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Pope + Zaha

    or

    Lloris + Barkley/6m mid

    1. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I’d avoid Zaha as he’s unsettled or if he moves then he might not start the first game.

        Yea, good point. Thanks mate

  19. PrettyDick
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    A) De Bruyne + King
    B) Fraser + Wilson

    (Already have Sterling and Bernardo)

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I would personally choose A and then switch Bernardo to Siggy

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      De bruyne + other. Not keen on King. Would do Bilva to Fraser also

    3. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      B for me. Especially if you already have Sterling

      1. PrettyDick

    Could someone tell me how good Neal Maupay of Brentford(Off to Brighton apparently) is? Looking at his stats he has the potential to be a top class striker, but I've not seen him play, How good is he?

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Amazing. He would've been my dream signing at United and we were linked but his agent was demanding too much :(. Complete finisher, fast and great movement. Just an all round beast tbh

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Oh I see, that sounds good, I hope McBurnie does well for you guys!

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 5 Years

          Just watch a YouTube compilation on him haha. And yh, good signing tbh sounds perfect for us.

          I hate Brighton

  22. JELLYFISH
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Getting close to a settled team now.

    Heaton
    VVD Robbo Coleman Zinc
    McGinn Perez Sterling Salah
    Kane Jota

    Button Donker Greenwood Lindstrom

    1. Tinmen
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Is McGinn any good? I chose Barkley over him

      1. JELLYFISH
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Yes, been awesome in preseason. He is prone to picking up cards which is a risk, but I really fancy him this season

  23. Tinmen
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Folks, 5 of us have just done our draft team in our mini league

    I had first pick and selected Lacazette by accident. Meant to pick Kane
    I lost out on all the big players salah Kane Sterling Auba Aguero etc

    I’ve never played it before, so would you say I have no chance of winning?
    It was £20 in and I’m hurting right now lol

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah no chance at all now. May as well not even try.

    2. HNI
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      You lost 20pounds. If any of other players are stupid you may still get something with luck. But Laca is too unlikely,,,even with Auba you may have had a good chance

    3. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Why were you picking Kane as first option anyway? Do you really think he'll outscore Salah and Sterling?

      Lacazette won't be the top scorer in the league but he actually outscored Kane last season so I wouldn't give up on it.

    4. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      You need some luck with Laca this season but I wouldnt give up. Thing with draft is you can get a huge leg up on other players by being active with changes to your non big hitter players by playing the fixtures, especially in a small league with only 5 players where there should be a lot of unowned players at all times.

      I only played draft one season and found it quite boring but I had 5 times the transfers of the other managers and won very easily on the back of it.

    Anyone else considering going Wilson and king for the first 2 gameweeks? Then swap out king for best 6.5 ish striker

    1. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years

      Overkill. Wilson only.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years

      that was my initial thought when the game came out, could work

      1. Subzero (-4)
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I know, it's a minefiekd the cheap striker slot. Thinking just get a safe starter with a good fixture for gameweek 1 and possibly 2 and then assess from then with more info

    3. Leehane

    What is Burnley Gk situation?
    Pope still in many teams but isnt he still injured?
    I have one of 2 choices
    1) Go Pope/Ryan + 4mngk so can afford 100% nailed Laporte
    2) Go Pope/4.5mn who rotates and go Zinchenko + 0.5mn in bank

    1. Roy Rovers
      • 9 Years

      Pope / Heaton

    In order to switch Ceballos to Barkley:

    A) Coleman to KWP
    B) Robertson to VVD (Got TAA already)
    C) Ignore Barkley and stick with Ceballos

    1. Whitetiger14

      I think Hanley Lundstram and maybe Kelly (short term) are the ones at 4.0. Gibson is Burnley have injury.
