Fantasy Premier League managers could find value in spending as little money on defenders as possible in the coming weeks.

With Liverpool conceding for the fourth consecutive match in Gameweek 7, and the injury to Fabinho (£5.5m) exacerbating the loss of Virgil van Dijk (£6.4m), Trent Alexander Arnold (£7.4m) and Andrew Robertson’s (£7.1m) certainly offer less Fantasy value than before.

It’s not just Liverpool who are letting the premium defenders union down though. Last season’s top six have kept just seven clean sheets combined over the first six Gameweeks (Liverpool 1, Manchester City 1, Manchester United 1, Chelsea 2, Spurs 1, Arsenal 1) so justifying ownership of their expensive defenders is proving harder and harder each week.

Using some underlying statistics in the Fantasy Football Scout Premium Members Area, I want to analyse if teams with defenders at the more budget end of the spectrum (say, up to £5.0m) can possibly provide similar returns to their more expensive counterparts at the bigger clubs.

For the purpose of this analysis, I have used data from the last four Gameweeks:

Any thoughts? 2FT 0.2 ITB

Martinez/McCarthy
Robbo/Chilwell/Dallas/Konsa/Lamprey
Salah/Son/Pulisic/Rodriguez/Jorginho
Kane/DCL/Brewster

There's no urgent moves that stand out to me, but feels wrong burning a transfer

Thinking of perhaps Jorginho to Soucek and roll a transfer

    I am considering possibly downgrading Robertson if the Liverpool defence continues to be ropey.. I know you have them more for their attacking returns but I feel that there are cheaper alternatives that can match them. I just don't want to make that move before West Ham especially without Antonio

McCarthy (Fodder)
TAA / Robbo / Saiss (Targett) (Mitchell)
Son / Bruno / Grealish / JRod (Bissouma)
Kane / DCL / Maupay

Wait for Everton Presser and if JRod is fit then Maupay to Bamford

if JRod is not would you:
A) JRod - Zaha
B) JRod - Foden

I like the city coverage from Foden but the fixtures for Zaha...

Thinking of doing the above AND the Maupay move for -4 as Bamford looks very dangerous right now..

Will likely move one of the Liverpool defenders out next week for Salah / Sterling / KDB upgrade if they concede again..

  Good team, I would hold. Maupay could shine aganist a leaky Spurs defence. Leicester more solid.

WC team (*denotes new players)

McCarthy/ Martinez*
Chilwell * Robbo* Mitchell Kilman* Coufal*
Foden* Salah Son Soucek Zaha*
Kane* Bamford* DCL

0.7 ITB - worry is if Kilmun going to keep his place (got rid of Coady for him 2 free up funds)

Thoughts?

Would you take out Ings or Jiminez for Kane for a FT this week?

If so which one? Thinking maybe Jiminez

Martinez
Robbo - Chilwell - Dallas
Salah - Son - J. Rod - Grealish
Kane - DCL - Bamford

(Forster) - (Bissouma - *Mitchell* - *Castagne*)
0.8 ITB - 1FT

A) Save and Castagne + J. Rod -> Coufal + Rashford (next GW)
B) Castagne -> Creswell for the 1FT

Cheers!

  C) Castagne -> Dias?
  
  Otherwise, I like B. Not sure I'd remove Rodriguez with Fulham soon but Carlo's press conference could change things.
