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

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.

    Who you fancy? N. Taylor, Rico, or Dunk? Thnx.

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

      Dunk.

    2. Bocaginge
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I know you’ve not mentioned him but I’ve you considered Montoya. 4.5m and he’s playing wingback

  2. mcgrejam

    Please help...

    Pope
    VVD, Digne, TAA
    Perez, Fraser, Salah, Sterling
    Wood, Wilson, Jota

    No playing subs - good enough/any changes please...will switch Pope to Heaton GW2 as Heaton has better fixtures...looking good?

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

      may as well switch now and save a transfer?

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

        This - not worth the transfer

  3. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Best option here with 12m left

    Heaton Button
    TAA Digne Rico xxx xxx
    Salah Sterling Siggy Perez xxx
    Wilson King Greenwood

    A) VVD + Zincheko + Dendocker in a 442
    B) Zincheko + Ings + 0.5m to upgrade Button > Pope
    C) One of Montoya/Diop/Rico rotation + Martial in a 352

  4. Manani
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    insane to go Frase Wilson King?

    they all look good individually, and can be good placeholder for first 2gw till clearer budget option appears.

    1. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I have wilson and king fwiw

    2. There's Always One!
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah I think so

    3. Oooof
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Yes

    4. RubberDucky
        4 years, 8 months ago

        yeah thats too much Bournemouth.

        I had Fraser / Wilson
        Now Fraser / King
        and contemplating just Fraser and moving to Jota or Delou

      • fkmzcgp
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Double is ok, triple up is too much imo

      • Brosstan
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Its too much because of GW3

      • Pumpkinhead
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Yes - I have King and Fraser - but really doubting King atm.

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

      Deulofeu/Deeney or Jota?

      Watford have better fixtures but Jota is the better player and maybe his fixtures look tougher on paper than they actually are?

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

        Jota

      2. UnitedFan
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        *EL for Wolves too to consider.

      3. Oooof
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Jota

    6. FPL_DON

        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        It’s nice but I would try and get 0.5 to upgrade Lundstram.. either Digne —>5.5 or Tros —> 6 but it’s similar structure to mine... Jota is making my head tick

    8. Revival

      G2G?

      1. Angelic upstart

        Nice side that.

    10. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Hennessey my 3 City are Ederson, Zilchenko and Sterling. My 3 Everton are Digne, Coleman and Siggy.

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

      Pick 2 out of perez moura Fraser.

      Have wilson but no vardy.

      1. Lion-O
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Perez and Fraser

      2. FPL_DON
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Perez moura for me

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

          That's who I'm currently on

      3. Krafty Werks
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Defo Perez & Moura with Wilson & no Vardy if you have King also?

    12. Sir_Durs8
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Best striker option at 6.0m or under?

      A) Ings
      B) Adams
      C) Other

      1. Angelic upstart
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        C, Maupay in a few weeks

        1. Sir_Durs8
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          I like him in a few weeks, but with no preseason I’m not sure I want him from the start.

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

        I've got Ings for now. He's great asset IF he stays fit. Adams may play more this season.

      3. Lion-O
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Wesley. On pens and not much competition, with good fixtures.

        1. Sir_Durs8
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Am very tempted by this option for sure. Like the fixtures after Spurs away.

      4. Oooof
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        C) Joelinton

    13. There's Always One!
      • 14 Years

      Thoughts on Firmino guys? Interested in getting him instead of Aubam

      1. Pep's Money Laundry
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Great player but not a great fpl player

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

          This

        2. Oooof
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Sums it up

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years

        Team mates offer more currently.

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

      What's better, help :
      A) Go with VVD in 4-4-2
      or
      B) VVD out and Jota in for 3-4-3
      I already have Robertson.

    15. Ste-Rex
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      This is not a RMT

      This is just where I am (somehow)

      Pope, 4.0
      TAA, KWP, Robbo, Goalman, 4.0
      Salah, Sterling, KDB, 4.5, 4.5
      Joe Linton, Wilson, Murry/Maupey

      I know it's not right but I can't move off it

    16. Kragbaek
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      With Lukaku gone, I just did:

      Siggy + Zinchenko

      to

      Martial + Digne

      Must be a good choice, right?

    17. The Train Driver
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Leicester should have gone for Rojo...

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

        Lol why? He was terrible for man u - what would change if he went to Lei?

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

      Probably been asked a lot (sorry), but:

      A. Sterling + Jota
      B. Vardy + KDB

      1. Lion-O
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        A

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

          Ho!

          Thanks. Think so too.

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

        like vardy but i feel that A sounds like more points

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

      Its about time. RMT

      Pope
      Arnold/Walker Peters/Zinchenko/VanDijk
      Sterling/Salah/Fraser/Perez
      Jota/Vardy

      Heaton/Greenwood/Dendoncker/Simpson

    20. KGFC
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I think all Arsenal games will be high scoring - a backline with Luiz, Mustafi, Sokratis, Kola, etc. will force their attackers to score at least 2-3 goals each game ;-D

      1. The Chosen One...
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        A shame the only options are 2 expensive forwards. Don't fancy the mids

    21. fkmzcgp
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      RMT ?? Think I’m done

      Pope
      Robertson - Digne - Montoya
      Salah - Sterling - Martial - Perez - Robinson
      Kane - King

      (Button - Rico - Greenwood - Gibson)

        7.5, worried about using too many transfers first two gws

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

        You have no Sterling and Kane

    23. Ziyech on the Bench
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Hi lads how she looking?

      Pope/Heaton

      TAA, VVD, Coleman / Lundstrom, Rico

      Salah (c), Sterling, Siggy, Trossard / Hayden

      Wilson, Jota, Wood 🙂

      1. Lion-O
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Coleman and Rico are risks, but overall very good.

        1. Rigid Digit
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Coleman should be OK for GW1 (and probably GW2)
          (He says hopefully)

          Pre-planned Transfer warning:
          GW1 = Coleman / Vertongen
          GW3 = Colenn => Digne / Vertongen => Zouma

    24. The Train Driver
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Who is the team with the good fixtures at start that will fail us? My bet ia Everton..

      1. Bruce Lee
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        everton too

      2. Bury94
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Liverpool 😉

      3. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Liverpool

    25. dee_top
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Choose the best combo:

      A) VVD + Siggy
      B) Trent + Martial

      1. Red Devil Swede
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        A

    26. Valar(Keith)
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      If Kane blanks vs Villa it's going to take all the resolve in the world to not swap him out for one of the many strikers that will score.. Reason being his impending huge price drop before man City away.

      1. Bruce Lee
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        yes, plus the trend is cheap forwards... so any cheap forward will probably be a bandwagon that you'd be tempted to jump on

        1. Valar(Keith)
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Agreed. I can just picture Kean and haller scoring and me being tempted to downgrade. Auba it is.. I won't feel bad about downgrading him and can swap to Kane if he looks good gw 3

      2. Valar(Keith)
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        With how crazy things are at the start I'm considering going with auba just so I don't feel too bad about downgrading lol. I just know il hold onto Kane and he'll be 10.7 by the time I decide to get rid

        1. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Auba for sure. Spurs are goin*to need a moment

    27. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      A couple of tweaks.
      Heaton
      TAA,VVD,Digne,Zinchenko
      Salah,Sterling, Perez,Trossard
      Wilson,Jota

      McGovern,Barkley,Gilbert,Wickham

      So it’s Trossard,Barkley v Fraser,Dendonker

      Leaning towards T & B.

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

        Nice. I would be tempted to double up with king or Murray in place of Jota to get out of the blocks. Good luck anyway

        1. The 12th Man
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Thanks, I had King in

    28. The Tinkerman
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Who is the better pick?

      A) Mings
      B) Guilbert

      Villa fans?

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

        I’m with Mings...very solid and a goal threat from set pieces

      2. Oooof
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        I’m not a Villa fan, but I like Mings too.

    29. Bury94
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Wesley or Deeney?

      1. Ziyech on the Bench
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Long term Wes

    30. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      does the new Leicester signing Praet effect Perez ??
