Can Wolves’ FPL assets perform as well in 2019/20?

3,383 Comments
Share

Wolverhampton Wanderers were one of the big success stories of last season, with Nuno Espirito Santo’s impressive side finishing seventh in their first Premier League campaign in six years.

The West Midlands club offered Fantasy managers some notable bargain buys, with Matt Doherty (£6.0m), Diogo Jota (£6.5m) and Raul Jimenez (£7.5m) the three stand-out assets.

Doherty, Jimenez and several others have been handed price rises in Fantasy Premier League this summer, however, and aren’t quite the cut-price gems they were 12 months ago.

Do Wolves players still appeal, then, going into 2019/20?

Our 20th and final Numbers Game piece looks at Wanderers’ underlying data from last season to see if the numbers of 2018/19 can be repeated in the upcoming campaign.

    Ive got a feeling this question won't split the community but here goes....

    Which pair will score more/ Better starting and (bench) option

    A) Digne and (Dendoncker)

    or

    B) Trossard and (Guilbert/other 4.5 Defender)

    Currently already have Coleman

        They have the best defensive fixtures for the first 6 weeks, but yes I’m not 100% on doing it. I just can’t see many defenders at 5.5 currently worth that price.

      I think with their busy early schedule and ok fixtures, id go Robinson or McGinn. Robinson further forward, but McGinn more favourable fixtures (he also just signed a new contract, so will be buzzing).

          Is prefer Robinson....and I’m a villa fan. Grealish would be my preferred option, McGinn is a little bit of a YC magnet.

      Would much prefer the £4.5m guys like Dendoncker and Hayden with £1m leftover. Nothing in the £5.5m range looks great. Maybe Camarasa when he gets in the Palace side.

        Yeah i kinda agree with ya there, just A i suppose gives more flexibility and seems more long term for sense of security. Got Perez i suppose and King does have the opportunity to do well first couple games.

    Just noticed Villa's end of season run in when considering Wesley for my team, jeez, hope for their sake they aren't in a relegation battle. Awful run in

      Need only look at the first 4 gameweeks when picking a gameweek 1 team, with free transfers and or a early wildcard it will change very quickly anyways.

      You know you can transfer players in and out right? Look 3-4 fixtures ahead and no more. Injruies, form, etc... change.

        Like how Siggy and Wilson gives you the flexibility to jump to KDB and King or Vardy and 7m mid if either KDB or Vardy start firing

    With Sane out, any chance of Mahrez starting more often than not?

        More than what? Bernardo was the attacking player that saw the most minutes last season in that City team.

          More than less, with KDB back, his minutes would surely have gone down in the City 4231

      Martial is basically nailed I think and potentially playing striker.
