Pro Pundits - Lateriser

Three-time top 200 finisher Lateriser on Aguero, Villa and a polarising FPL season

The 2019/20 number one Fantasy manager in India, Lateriser addresses a rollercoaster campaign, FPL ownership, Brighton, Villa, Sergio Aguero, his Gameweek 6 team and more in his latest Pro Pundits piece.


This season is not for the weak-hearted and there are just way too many good options in this game at present.

Before Project Restart last season, the premium player conversation primarily revolved around Liverpool and Manchester City assets. Now we have a Spurs team that have accumulated the most number of big chances in the league in the premium conversation, in addition to assets from Manchester United and Chelsea who have shown us enough in the recent past to be a part of this conversation.

You are going to have to develop a very thick skin this season as there will be many Gameweeks where players you own don’t get points and others are getting monster hauls. But on the flipside, the opportunities in this game are very enticing too.

We have Liverpool and Manchester City enjoying a decent bunch of fixtures in the next two Gameweeks and the likes of Sadio Mane (£11.9m), Raheem Sterling (£11.5m) and Sergio Aguero (£10.4m) all have ownerships of under 10% at the time of writing. Mane has looked very sharp this season and has the highest xG amongst all midfielders, and next faces an obliging Sheffield United side that have lost one of their best defenders for a long time and who just don’t look like the team from 2019/20.

Manchester City scored 95 goals in their season without Kevin De Bruyne (£11.5m) and that makes Sterling and Aguero perfectly viable ‘differential’ captaincy options should you fancy it – which brings me to my point.

This is something I’d spoken about in my very first article for Fantasy Football Scout and it is just something I want to reiterate. Given the wide range of options that we have this season, it is very important to find your identity as a Fantasy Premier League manager. This is what I said back then:

If you are going to get sleepless nights going without Mohamed Salah, don’t do it. It doesn’t suit your personality. It’s not good for your blood pressure and you don’t end up having fun. You’re better off playing the odds and percentages game because that is where your comfort zone lies.

The game has opened up very nicely for the ‘dullards’ as well as the ‘opportunists’ with the wide variety of options we have. Given the increased impact of social media on everything mental, if you can’t handle a huge haul from a highly owned player, get that highly owned player because going maverick isn’t for you.

I never talk a lot about ownership percentages but given the nature of the season, I thought it was important to address. Seeing the high cost of transfers that FPL managers have had to pay on the ‘Rough with the Smooth’ section on the Scoutcast this season made me want to talk about this because I get the sense that there are going to be many difficult FPL decisions this season leading to a high variance in outcome. You need to be aware of your personality and tailor your FPL approach accordingly. This season, variance is a lot higher than usual and I expect that trend to continue. Be prepared for it and remember that this is only a game, one which involves a fair amount of luck and unpredictability as well.

Now that philosophy is out of the way, I want to talk about a few more objective things.

What is FPL Upside Chasing and how can I implement it in 2020/21?

    Is Barnes to JRod worth a hit?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yes I think so. 6 great fixtures coming up should cover the hit pretty quickly

    Any Reece James owners holding him for now? I think he might start this weekend. He defended much better against Sevilla and Lampard usually sticks with a player after a good performance

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Too much of a rotation risk with Azpi especially with UCL games now in the fixture mix

        I definitely wouldnt buy him because of that but I might be able to get a performance or two out of him without being forced into selling for a possible hit. Or so I hope

          3 years, 5 months ago

          For me, I want players that are nailed to start each week. Depends if you want to take that risk of him possibly not starting. Concentrate on removing weak links in your team. I wouldn't remove a defender for a hit but saying that I transferred McCarthy to Martinez for a hit as the upside was so much higher for Martinez

            If Mitchell doesn't start, i need James to. i can risk it this week but might have to act next week

      Would you start him over Mitchell? I'll probably bin him next week.

        I'm in the same situation. I started James last week over Mitchell and it didnt make a difference. Palace have a better clean sheet chance so maybe going with Mitchell is better

        2. Je suis le chat
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          I'll likely start Mitchell too, not much expectation either way.

            I went on the palace forum to see what the palace fans thought about their game with Fulham and it was too depressing in there so i left after reading 3 posts

                Just seem very negative. If they think they can stop Mitro, they wont lose. A few think they wont be able to

                  Fair, I guess they hoped for better football with the likes of Eze, Zaha and Bats. Brighton game was dismal

                    It seems like they have carried their post restart form into this season. Makes the Utd result stand out

      He's on my bench because waste of a transfer but I hope he wins that place back

        I might see if he starts vs Burnley then sell if he doesnt then.

            I have to get Salah in otherwise James would have probably been out

              Not all, but James will play the odd game, frank trusts him in any competition; I think both will play CL and James will play all the cup games

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Had the same dilemma and currently on Ayling but I think he may start CB due to injuries so may switch to Justin since he might get some attacking points.

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I think Koch will move to CDM and will allow Ayling to play right back still

        1. Tonyawesome69
          • 5 Years

          I think it was mentioned somewhere Struijk will play CDM. Few posts saying he will be OOP

  6. Pukki Blinders

    Struggling here, no Spurs or Villa at the moment...

    A) Son + Maupay
    B) Kane + McGinn

    (Sorry for repost trying to get more opinions)

    1. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Why McGinn?

      1. Pukki Blinders

        Can’t afford Barkley :/

        Who else is there at that price though?

          It's barren though I still like Soucek at 4.9

            • 4 Years

            1. Flair
              • 3 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              Lmao... not sure about McGinn so I can't give a decent verdict. His average position was pretty high against Leicester though

              1. Pukki Blinders
                • 4 Years
                3 years, 5 months ago

                Yeah the way I’m looking at it though... Son and Maupay playing as strikers more or less whereas Kane and Mcginn are playing deeper

                1. Flair
                  • 3 Years
                  3 years, 5 months ago

                  Kane's hardly being negatively impacted by that though and should get a well deserved rest today. His underlyings are also better than Son.

                  Maupay is interesting, could help you make the switch to Antonio when the time comes. I'd lean towards Kane and McGinn but it's tricky. Have you looked at captaincy over the next few GWs?

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B - Kane is on fire and McGinn is ticking over nicely with some attacking points.

        • 7 Years

        Yeah, figured it’s worth a punt with the upcoming fixtures. It’s either that or downgrade to Brewster - which means I can upgrade elsewhere, but quite like my midfield.

    Hi guys, I have 1 FT and £1.3 ITB any suggestions :-

    Martinez (4.0)
    Reguilon Castagne Mitchell (Dallas Kilman)
    Salah Son Bruno Hames (Bissouma)
    DCL Jimenez Watkins

    I'm thinking I need some City coverage.

  12. waltzingmatildas

    Main concerns are no Liv mid or Kane - although not so sure Burnley will be so easy.

    McCarthy Button
    TAA James Ayling CTaylor Mitchell
    Sterling Bruno Son Soucek Bissouma
    DCL Antonio Jimmy

    A) TAA - Robbo
    B) James - Robbo

        Hmm thanks! I know, one of the trickiest I've had.
        Could wc and get the template team, but don't think what I have is bad as such.

        Probably most sensible, but Bruno's form is pretty good. Sterling doesn't have pens....

    3. waltzingmatildas

    Would you jump on aguero if you already had kane?

      Too early. Gw10.

    Asked for an update on his fitness, Ziyech responded: ‘I still have a way to go."

    Not great for Pulisic 😕 I think I jumped on too early. I'm taking way too many risks as usual...

      Not your fault, blame Frank for playing him on the right. He should be playing his best players in their best positions

    2. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      All desire to bring in Pulisic next week has gone

    3. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Im on the same boat, but same time i think Puli can do damage against Manu + nice fixtures going forward.

  16. The Red Devil
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Best midfield duo frombelow (upto 17.2)
    A- grealish + Rodriguez (double villa + double Everton)
    B- Bruno + McGinn (double Villa)
    C- Sterling + lookman/Mcginn
    D- Rashford + foden

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A by a mile.

    What time are the pressers today peeps?

    Who would you play - Castagne vs ARS or Brewster vs LIV?

    1. Gunners in Haaland
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Castagne

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Castagne - I don't see SHU creating many chances

  19. JELLYFISH
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    On WC and going with Kane and DCL, but undecided on my third forward pick.

    Currently on Jimi....but just seems a but dull!

    Maupay is tempting this GW!

    Suggestions welcome

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Not Jimi, fixtures about to turn sour

      Antonio in a couple weeks, go maupay and keep money itb

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Brewster is a gift, put the money saved into the mids.

      1. JELLYFISH
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Not convinced on him tbh

    3. Champ
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I'm going Maupay with soucek in midfield works well. Then switch to Antonio in a few weeks

      1. The Suspended One
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Good shout

        1. JELLYFISH
          • 11 Years

          Good shout, thanks

    Thinking about keeping Werner this week and getting Kane later on.

    Or Werner to Kane and Doherty to Targett or Dallas?

    Cheers!

  21. Pukkipartyy
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Should Pulisic go back to leftwing when Ziyech is fit?

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      He should, yes.

    2. Milk, 1 Šuker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      You'd think so. Strongest formation in my opinion would be:

      Werner
      Pulisic Havertz Ziyech

      1. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        But where does that leave Franks love affair with Mount?

        1. Pukkipartyy
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Midfield?

        2. Piggs Boson
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Probably come on at 60-70 every game, and start in cups. Plenty of minutes to be had.

          1. The Suspended One
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            This

            And start games we need to press high

      2. Pukkipartyy
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        That surely looks one of best attacks on PL...

    3. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Should play there now...

    4. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ok thx, maybe its wise to hold him.
      Nice fixtures coming too...

  22. CAPA
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Views appreciated on highest scoring combination for this weekend?
    a) Barkley and Aguero
    b) Mane and Zaha
    Thanks

    1. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B for sure imo

      1. CAPA
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Do you think Sterling or Mane for next 2 GWs?

        1. Flair
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Mane

          1. CAPA
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Barkley or Zaha for next 2 GWs?

    2. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B

  23. jb1985
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Not sure who to start this GW, not great options, swaying slightly towards A as its home fixture.

    A) Bissouma (WBA)
    B) Mitchell (ful)
    C) Justin (ars)
    D) Brewster (liv)

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Mitchell

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      definitely A

    3. beric
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      D

    4. Kavorka
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      BADC

    5. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      C

  24. seanmcging
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Play Wilson or Podence?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson

    2. beric
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Whos your cheapest attacker??

      1. seanmcging
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I have DCL, Kane & Wilson, the issue is I have to choose between Wilson & Podence every week, as my other mids are Salah, Rodriguez, Foden & Son. I should just sell one of them to save me the headache.

  25. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Play 1:

    1) Dallas vs Villa
    2) Mitchell vs Fulham

    1. drughi
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      2

    2. rookie manager
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      2) - If Leeds are going to be without Phillips think that will already hurt their already quite low chances of a clean sheet - and Villa are unlikely to offer many chances for goals the other end.

    Thoughts on Chilwell going forward?

    Should I squeeze more funds from other parts of my team and go for Digne instead, or will he get enough joy the next games to warrant a place in my squad?

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Nailed, set pieces, good positions; fixtures about to turn good

      If only we can keep a CS

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks! Yeah, have been quite leaky at the back... feel for you guys with Kepa in goal tbh

        1. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Not anymore, mendy in now

          1. thomashl
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Is Mendy fit after the injury he sustained on int. duty? In that case, points galore for defenders over the next GWs

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Chilwell

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Nice, thanks! Got him at 5.5, so have some value tied up as well

    3. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      apart from GW6, GW's 7, 8 & 9 look like returns for sure 🙂

    4. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Chillwell over Digne all day.

      1. thomashl
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        That's useful, thanks! Nice to save a bit of cash when you can, right

    5. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I'm absolutely getting him in, likely for the season.

  27. Andy Mac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Any changes required here?

    Martinez
    Robbo - Saiss - Digne
    Salah - Son - Pulisic - Grealish - Foden
    Kane - DCL

    Steer - Killman - Mitchell - Brewster

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No way roll it

      1. Andy Mac

    Being without city attacker feels like playing with fire, sooner rather than later you will get burned. Aguero for 10.4 is tempting but kane is just to good to ignore now so it will have to wait.

    1. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Cant have them all lad 🙁

    2. thomashl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Yup. BUT – other assets are performing equally well or better, so there's still a case to be made for going without, especially until City find their stellar form

  29. JUNITED
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Kane or Aguero? Already have Son but no city players.

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Kane. Switch to Kun GW10.

    • 12 Years

    Anyone else thinking Podence will be dropped to bench for Traore this week? I have funds to switch him out for JROD. Seems crazy, but i want him long term & just feel Podence is running out of time to produce meaningful returns for Wolves

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I think he starts at RW we will see though

    2. thomashl
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I would get on the James-train before he's 8.2 or something. He looks so good.

    3. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      from what I hear he was very unlucky last game not to get a goal but I didn't see the game.
