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.

    Joelinton at 6.0m looks a good price

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

      He does, but our fixtures are terrible. No one's going with Newcastle players early doors so you there's no pressure to be on them. I'd keep an eye on Saint Maximin at 5.5 and Almiron at 6 too

  2. Sammy S
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Lacazette and Wilson

    or

    Aubameyang and King?

    1. Are you Shaw?
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      definitely Auba and King (King to become Jota when Wolves have better fixtures)

    2. Dr Ennet
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Auba & King.

  3. Are you Shaw?
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    I am seeing a lot of mentions for Kyle Walker Peters, no fear from Aurier? Or even Foyth when he's back?

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

      That’s why I think Vert is better

    2. Onana Whatsmyname
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah tempting but Aurier is definitely looming

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

    1) or 2) please? 🙂 last decision.

    1) Vert, KDB and Dendoncker (4-4-2)
    2) 4.0 def (means no playing sub), Siggy and Fraser (3-5-2)

    Pope (Button)
    Robertson/VVD/Digne/xxx (4.0)
    Salah/Sterling/Perez/xxx/xxx
    King/Jota (Wickham)

    1. Are you Shaw?
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      definitely 1 in my opinion.. Everton (even with Kean coming in) look extremely untrustworthy going forward

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

        Thanks mate

    2. Onana Whatsmyname

    1 day to go and I'm having doubts

    Is Coleman properly under threat, or safe for a couple of weeks?
    I reckon safe for at least Weeks 1 & 2 - please convince me

    And now Perez might be not nailed with the arrival of Dennis Praet.

    Possible early Wildcard incoming

    Foster
    Van Dijk / Vertonghen / Coleman
    Salah / De Bruyne / Fraser / Perez
    Kane / Haller / Ings

    Steklenberg / Dendonker / Diop / Lundstram

      Kane never starts season well

  10. GianniBanani
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    a) TAA/Robertson + Fraser
    b) VVD + BSilva

    I have Sterling, double liverpool def and Wilson

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

      I mean TAA + Robertson + Fraser or TAA/Robertson + VVD + BSilva

  11. Sloths
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Now that the transfer window is closed. Who are the best fullbacks in the premier league?

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

      That don't cost £7M

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

      Digne + Tierney

  15. Daniel Exeter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    So I read Hanley at Norwich is now our 4m playing defender option?

  16. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Stupid Jota being jazzy again. Now I've got a 3 man front line after being off it all Summer.
    Wilson - Haller - Jota

  17. aflickering
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    is soyuncu nailed?

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

      well it's pick two from him Evans and Morgan, surely it's gotta be Soyuncu and Evans

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

    Sterling playing leftwing is a massive turn off.

    1. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Should we make a list of players from both last and present that get loads of pts from the wing?....It’s quite a good list.

  19. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    What's the take on Man Utd defence from the off?
    Getting cold feet on all this City/Chelsea uncertainty and have even moved into a place where DDG looks like an acceptable option. Should I log off?

  20. Doggan88
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Which one?
    1. Digne & zinchenko
    2. Coleman & Walker

    1. tyiocoyg34
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      2

  21. michudagawd
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    I can't afford Digne with my current setup so who is the best 5.5 defender to go for?

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

      If you fancy Everton's fixtures then it's gotta be Coleman hasn't it? I'd try to find the cash for Digne.

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

        Sidibe has just signed for the Toffees so I wouldn't be comfortable going with Seamie to be honest.

    2. The Sun'll Come Out To…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Vertongen. Boring but steady

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

    Barkley still in my team as 4th mid. Still have my doubts but time running out and think he's likely to stay cause just can't see a solid alternative at his price.

    1. Blue Moon Rising
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Exactly the same concern I have. Don't like him but cannot see an alternative. Already got Perez

  29. Elhadjidiouf
    • 4 Years

    Walker-Pieters, VVD, Zinchenko, Digne
    Salah, Sterling, L.Moura, Perez

    VVD - Digne - Robertson
    Bernardo - Salah - Pepé - Perez - Fraser
    Jota - Wilson

    Bench: Montoya, Kelly, Greenwood, Heaton
