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

3,383 Comments

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.

    Could it be more template? But it’s template for a reason.

    Pope 4.0
    Robbo, VVD, Digne, AWB 4.0
    Salah, Sterling, KDB, Perez 4.5
    Jota, King 4.5

    Salah, Sterling, Barkley, Trossard, Dedonker
    Vardy, King, Jota

    Would like to save 0.5 so I can easily jump from Vardy to Aguero & Sterling to KDB but can't see where. Montoya to 4? Don't want promoted 5.5 mid until proving worth.

    Thanks

        Great shout. Most lining up Salah + 2 LIV defs, but going 2 LIV attackers and 1 defender is just as enticing. Would eat up over 25% of your budget though.

        Lundstram played quite a bit (defender playing out of position in midfield) in pre-season for Sheff Utd.

        Diego Rico another option from BOU, but competition for his spot in that team.

          Thanks TM. I can still cover 12 playing. My main concern is Barkley. Sticking for now I think.

      How nailed is KWP? With Man City and Arsenal in the first 4 games I don’t really understand the appeal?
