And I know, if Liverpool win 6-0 yada yada. The deal is, going light on Liverpool gives you a lot.

What do you do if he scored 4 GW1?

I think you're crazy to go salahless

Very good

Huge risk going without him. Nice team, but could end up 3million rank after gw1

I like it

Really strong. But what happens with your rank if Salah hits a brace? I'd rather take the chance after wildcard if I need to take risks

I like it all except for Maguire

Salah vs NOR, sou

Vs

Sterling vs whu, TOT

Odds are majorly stacked against you here mate, I don’t look at your team and think wow look at the extra players you can get.

I think there are times where you could take a calculated risk going without Salah, but st the start I don’t feel it’s worth it.

That aside, for a salah-less team, it’s probably as good as it could get.

Good luck either way!

I like it but similar to others I’d say it’s very risky going without Salah. Also due to ownership and captaincy it’ll really hurt your rank if he does well.

If you’re set though I’d do Martial -> Fraser.

Due to fixtures it’s quite easy to wait 2 weeks to see how Martial looks and Fraser aligns perfectly. I definitely fancy Martial to do well this season though too.

It could work really well - but you'd just need to make sure you commit to it and hold your nerve - don't knee jerk for example if Salah braces v Norwich and then nicks another goal or assist or two v Southampton etc

I wouldn't have the likes of Maguire & Martial in my GW1 team for all the tea in China, but equally I can see a situation where they do well (nothing suprises me in FPL anymore)

B - it's largely the same as my team (which obviously means its good in my opinion)
I think trying to fit SSK into the team creates too much of a compromise

A looks good.

Would get just one 4.5m and Lundstram/Rico (both should play).

Kane I think is worth it.

I'd go B as you have Sterling and I don't like Ings

First one.

He's a really good pick. The guy scored 182 points last season after missing 3 penalties...

A few weeks ago he was in every single team.
I even came here to discuss how he is still in my team and its hurting my eyes XD
I think Evertons lack of form in pre season has made a lot of people bail.
I am either going to keep, swap for Rich or downgrade to save some £££

Everton havent been scoring much pre season - I just switched sig for moura

Missed 4 of his last 7 pens
23 blanks last season
0G 0A in last seasons equivalents of his opening 5 fixtures (excl. Villa)
Price went up

No doubt he could do well but owners will need PATIENCE

Just like a puppy is for life, not just for Christmas, A Siggy is for the season, not just GW1-5

As others have said pre-season form is a major contribution.

He’s show in the past he’s one to have patience with but my anticipated tactic is to wildcard early so I’d rather take a chance on more explosive options such as Moura, Richarlison, Fraser around similar price point and then evaluate. Also Zaha @ 1m less would be hard to ignore.

Solid

Not a fan of Robinson or Barkley. Downgrade Vardy or Wilson to fund their upgrades?

Mids

6m defs.
6m is that horrible spot for mids and fwds. 6.5 and you have decent options.

1.5m in the bank

Hate your strike force I'm afriad.

Think it needs a rethink - I'd downgrade Allison for a start...

Allison waste of a liverpool spot. Get Robbo or TAA instead. Attacking threat.

Mings - didn't do well last time in the premier league so would wait.

Having Robinson and Joelinton is one to many risks for me. Stick with one and upgrade the other.

Good to go.

Looks good.

You must have 1 playing sub because you have to pick a 4.5 midfielder. Dendoncker will do.

Since you only have one playing sub and you have Zinchenko, you might want to do TAA to Robertson for security of starts.

I prefer the Brighton and villa rotation but I would never want to rotate 4.5 keepers, this is for Montoya and guilbert

Heaton just in case he gets a Kane pen save and then a sea of green - just not sure on Villa defence, but he could make a lot of saves

But one makes 5 star food and the other can get your soul through the pearly gates. Both essential

That sounds terrible. I'll stick my revolutionary tactic of picking the player I think will score the most points.

A

6m could be okay but wouldn’t go wild for him

Whose minutes would he steal?

siggy to moura?

A

D I think

I think Wesley

Wesley imo. Then Ings. I have both xD

B

It’s very template if that’s what you’re aiming at?

Solid

I wouldn't bet on Martial if I'm paying 7.5m. He's a ding dong fantasy asset. Suggestion, go for either Moura or Fraser in first three GW then switch to Martial if he hold up the place.

Palace awful at the moment so no Schlupp or Dann for me.

Lloris is a set and forget so sell Ryan for a 4.0 and that gives you a 0.5 to spend.

It's definitely different.
Could pay off but I'd prefer a stronger defence.

Trying to keep a balanced team while owning Sterling and Salah

No idea what you are on about, I have Greenwood

I've just posted my team with 8 of the blighters.

I’ve got 2 and 5 OOP midfielders

I have Vardy so I'm happy.

B

B

I prefer A over B.
Think Allison is a waste of a liverpool spot though.

Transfer waiting to happen.

Sure if you are happy to go into GW2 without a ft for it

Yeh, just posted my squad with him added.

1 week punts are not worth the risk this early on imo

Ryan or Heaton

I'm going Ryan&Guilbert or Heaton&Dunk

Think you need another pool defender to make the most of it

A) Safe until Son returns in GW 3.

B) Nailed in my opinion.

C) Toss a coin, but I fancy him to play more than Otamendi.

First team I see with both Moura and Martial. Ballsy

We happen to be in the same mini league so I like this team, g2g bud 🙂
