Fernandes and De Bruyne rise to £12.0m as more FPL prices are revealed

More Fantasy Premier League player prices for the 2021/22 campaign have been released on Monday to follow on from Sunday’s surprise reveals.

The two Manchester clubs, Aston Villa, Brentford, Chelsea, Everton, Leicester City, Newcastle United, Southampton, Watford and Wolverhampton Wanderers have all made announcements, either revealing entire squad lists or just a handful of assets.

The headline news sees Bruno Fernandes and Kevin De Bruyne priced up at £12.0m – that’s half a million cheaper than Harry Kane and Mohamed Salah (both £12.5m).

Goalkeepers Emiliano Martinez (£5.5m) and Edouard Mendy (£6.0m) have climbed in price following their achievements in 2020/21, along with last season’s popular forward options Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£8.0m), Kelechi Iheanacho (£7.5m), Ollie Watkins (£7.5m) and Callum Wilson (£7.5m).

TEAM BY TEAM

MANCHESTER CITY

While Ruben Dias moving up a rung to £6.0m was entirely expected, the elevation of De Bruyne to the £12.0m mark came out of the blue.

The Belgian’s points-per-match average of 5.6 was the same as Ilkay Gundogan’s last season and a whole point short of what Fernandes was churning out across Manchester.

This is De Bruyne’s most expensive starting price ever in FPL and sees him move up half a million in cost.

Raheem Sterling‘s worst year for Fantasy attacking returns (19) since 2015/16 results in a drop from £11.5m to £11.0m, while Riyad Mahrez‘s late-season run of form in which he delivered 10 goals and assists in as many appearances perhaps influenced the decision to increase his asking price to a still-reasonable £9.0m.

MANCHESTER UNITED
The Complete Guide to FPL Gameweek 30 2

Goalkeepers: David De Gea (£5m), Dean Henderson (£5m).
Defenders: Harry Maguire (£5.5m), Luke Shaw (£5.5m), Aaron Wan-Bissaka (£5.5m), Alex Telles (£5m), Victor Lindelof (£5m), Eric Bailly (£5m), Axel Tuanzebe (£4.5m), Brandon Williams (£4m).
Midfielders: Bruno Fernandes (£12m), Marcus Rashford (£9.5m), Paul Pogba (£7.5m), Mason Greenwood (£7.5m), Jesse Lingard (£7m), Donny van de Beek (£6m), Daniel James (£6m), Scott McTominay (£5.5m), Fred (£5m), Nemanja Matic (£4.5m).
Forwards: Edinson Cavani (£8.5m), Anthony Martial (£8m).


Aside from the headline Fernandes news, Luke Shaw has been handed a price rise to £5.5m.

That’s still a little on the generous side, given that he was top for chances created among defenders in 2021.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire (both £5.5m) are at the same price rung as the left-back but United’s two senior goalkeepers, Dean Henderson (£5.0m) and David de Gea (£5.0m), are both available for half a million cheaper.

Only Manchester City and Chelsea (12 each) kept more clean sheets than Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s troops (nine) this calendar year, so there’ll no doubt be plenty of takers in the first couple of months of the new campaign given the mostly favourable fixtures they enjoy in Gameweeks 1-7.

Marcus Rashford (£9.5m) and Mason Greenwood (£7.5m) are still categorised as midfielders and their starting prices remain identical to what they were ahead of the 2020/21 campaign.

The latter ended the season just gone in fine form, hitting seven attacking returns from Gameweeks 30-35.

Rashford was the fifth highest-scoring midfielder in the game, meanwhile.

Edinson Cavani (£8.5m) and Anthony Martial (£8.0m) are the only two FPL forwards listed on the Red Devils’ books.

ASTON VILLA

Martinez almost broke the record for most FPL points by a goalkeeper in a single season in 2020/21 and it was inevitable that he’d rise to £5.5m, given the similar hike experienced by Nick Pope (£5.5m) a year earlier.

Watkins had begun last season at £6.0m and has been slapped with a £1.5m rise, having plundered 23 attacking returns and 168 points en route to finishing as the fourth highest-scoring forward in the game.

Grealish’s season was impacted by injury but his points-per-match average of 5.2 was the best among Villa assets and the 10th highest among Fantasy midfielders.

Tyrone Mings remains steady at £5.0m, despite being part of a Villa backline that kept more clean sheets (15) than all teams bar Manchester City and Chelsea last season.

New boy Emiliano Buendia (£6.5m) is significantly cheaper than Grealish, with the returning Ashley Young available at £5.5m.

BRENTFORD
Price Reveal List.png

With FPL perhaps having learned their lesson from last season’s underpricing of Patrick Bamford and Ollie Watkins, Toney enters FPL at a less palatable £6.5m.

The penalty-taking forward bagged 31 goals in 45 Championship appearances in 2020/21, assisting a further 10 of the Bees’ strikes.

All of Brentford’s other Fantasy assets are priced under £6.0m, with set-piece takers Bryan Mbeumo and Mathias Jensen available at £5.5m and £5.0m respectively.

David Raya is yet another goalkeeper listed at £4.5m.

CHELSEA
Image

Mendy kept clean sheets in over half of his appearances last season (16 in 31 games) although such was Chelsea’s strength at the back that he collected save points in fewer than a third of his run-outs.

No Blues player started more Premier League matches under Thomas Tuchel than Cesar Azpilicueta (£6.0m) and the long-serving Spaniard’s starting price remains stable in the premium bracket as a consequence.

Timo Werner‘s (£9.0m) underwhelming first season at Stamford Bridge sees him drop half a million, with N’Golo Kante a non-mover at £5.0m.

EVERTON
Image

Calvert-Lewin’s 16-goal season sees him join Patrick Bamford at the £8.0m mark.

The Everton striker found the back of the net on 11 occasions in as many Gameweeks at the start of 2020/21, with the goals drying up thereafter.

But a positive-looking opening set of fixtures, particularly at home, will surely see the Toffees at the forefront of many Fantasy managers’ thoughts.

And Lucas Digne could well be the most popular pick of all from the blue half of Merseyside, with an unexpected drop to £5.5m one of the most surprising price reveals to date.

The Frenchman was behind only Aaron Cresswell (£5.5m) among FPL defenders for assists last season and returned more than mere appearance points in over half of his 30 starts.

The starting prices of James Rodriguez (£7.0m) and Richarlison (£7.5m) have also fallen after underwhelming campaigns.

LEICESTER CITY
Fantasy Premier League price reveal: Kasper Schmeichel (£5.0), Kelechi Iheanacho (£7.5), Maddison (£7.0), Jamie Vardy (£10.5)

Iheanacho’s remarkably good late-season form has seen him join the ranks of the mid-price forwards.

The Nigerian had dropped to £5.6m from a starting price of £6.0m by the time his purple patch started in Gameweek 26 of the campaign just gone.

He then embarked on a run of 11 goals in Leicester City’s final 12 matches at the tail-end of 2020/21, outscoring Jamie Vardy (£10.5m) by 90 points to 57 in that time.

That made Vardy’s rise to £10.5m – his highest starting price ever – all the more surprising.

The veteran scored on only four occasions in the final 24 Gameweeks, although did, in fairness, finish joint-top of the 2020/21 goals created charts with 14 assists.

James Maddison‘s up-and-down campaign sees him remain at £7.0m, with Kasper Schmeichel falling half a million to £5.0m.

Matty LongstaffMID£4.5
Callum WilsonFWD£7.5
Allan Saint-MaximinFWD£6.5

Dwight GayleFWD£5.5

Callum Wilson (£7.5m) endured an injury-hit 2020/21 season but when he did play he averaged 5.2 points per game, the third-best mean among Fantasy forwards.

FPL have subsequently handed the former Bournemouth man a price rise of £1.0m, bringing him level with Watkins and Iheanacho.

We’ve not had many positional reclassifications this summer but Allan Saint-Maximin (£6.5m) is one, with the Frenchman’s late-season stint as part of a central front two influencing that decision from the game-makers at FPL.

Martin Dubravka joins the throng of goalkeepers available at £4.5m, while Matt Ritchie (£5.0m) is now a defender again after his recent spell at left wing-back.

SOUTHAMPTON

Goalkeepers: Alex McCarthy £4.5m, Fraser Forster £4.5m.

Defenders: Kyle Walker-Peters £5m, Jannik Vestergaard £5m, Jan Bednarek £4.5m, Jack Stephens £4.5m, Mohammed Salisu £4.5m.

Midfielders: James Ward-Prowse £6.5m, Stuart Armstrong £6m, Nathan Redmond £6m, Theo Walcott £6m, Moussa Djenepo £5.5m, Nathan Tella £5m, Ibrahima Diallo £4.5m, Will Smallbone £4.5m, Oriol Romeu £4.5m.

Forwards: Danny Ings £8m, Ché Adams £7m, Dan Nlundulu £4.5m, Michael Obafemi £4.5m.


Danny Ings has dipped in price to £8.0m following an injury-littered campaign, with just one million now separating him and strike partner Che Adams (£7.0m) following the latter’s hike.

Goalkeeping duo Alex McCarthy and Fraser Forster remain as they were at £4.5m, with set-piece specialist James Ward-Prowse – who had his best-ever season for attacking returns and who finished ahead of Mason Mount and Raheem Sterling in the Fantasy points table – slightly pricier at £6.5m.

WATFORD

Ismaila Sarr (£6.0m) is the priciest Fantasy asset for Premier League new boys Watford, who return to the English top flight after a year away.

The Senegal international hit double figures for attacking returns in his last season in the top tier and found the net on 13 occasions in the Championship in 2020/21.

None of Watford’s Fantasy forwards reached the 10-goal mark last season, so it’s little surprise that not one of them will set FPL managers back more than £5.5m.

All of the Hornets’ backline cost £4.5m or less, including summer recruit Danny Rose (£4.5m).

WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS

Raul Jimenez will mark his return from a serious head injury as a £7.5m forward, which marks a drop of a million pound on his starting price last season.

Pedro Neto (£6.5m) now costs one million more than Daniel Podence (£5.5m), with Adama Traore‘s (£6.0m) unproductive season seeing him fall slightly.

Jonny (£4.5m) is one of the stand-out names in the sub-£5.0m defender bracket but is currently working his way back from a long-term knee problem.

            It’s going good, can’t wait to get started on my team - the hope begins now....

              • 3 Years

              It's the hope that destroys us

        Is the site working for you?

        It says "The site cant be reached" for me.

        1. Flair
          • 3 Years

          Working just fine for me.

      Set to miss it

  3. Sterling Archer
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone twisting the captaincy onto Mbappe? think france could have a field day against portugal!

    currently on KDB who scored 6 points

  4. The Tinkerman
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Would you twist De Bruyne 6 points?

    KDB > Perisic > Gnabry/Gosens

    1. amplifiedAnt
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      In the same position, albeit with Havertz for the final day as well.

      Tempted to stick, despite being behind in my league. Kinda fancy getting the points on the board and then staying there. And I've been lucky enough in MD1 and MD2.

      Will probably twist, but definitely concerned about regretting it.

  5. Flair
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    A big template seems to have developed already, assisted by the complete lack of interest in the 8.5M-11.5M bracket - it's really easy to make a team right now. Sancho joining United would go some way to shaking it up, a world class 9M~ asset with excellent fixtures - poses an interesting question.

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I don’t like it, my opinion isn’t that educated but why not make people like sterling 9m or so meaning they are actually an option, vardy 9 or 9.5 so that people will actually consider these players and provide some variety to teams

    2. Qaiss
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      It’s because Villa and Everton have some of the best reasonably priced assets and have good fixtures. Sanchez at 4.5 also has a very good run of fixtures.

      Kane to City might shake things up. If so, one of Salah/Bruno will go.

      1. Qaiss
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        And Sanchez is .5 too cheap

  6. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Hazard & Belottii over Wijnaldum and Depay has cost me dearly

  7. French Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone drafted a 2nd round team yet ?

    1. Baron Penguin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I think we only know two matches so haven’t got enough info.

    2. Another Hoops
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Because we don't know all the fixtures its too early to draft a proper team but after the deadline passed I did create a 15 man squad that I'll probably want going forward.

      Donnarumma - Ward
      Meunier - Dumfries - Spinazzola - Gosens - P.Torres
      Beradi - KDB - Wijnaldum - Havertz - Kimmich
      Ronaldo - Moreno - Immobile

      0.3 ITB

      1. EMERGING STAR
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Here is my initial draft

        Donnarumma - Stekelenberg
        Meunier - Dumfries - Spinazzola - Gosens - P.Torres
        Beradi - KDB - Wijnaldum - Morrell - Kimmich
        Ronaldo - Depay - Immobile

  8. BrutalLogiC
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Stick on 6 or cap one of
    Gundo
    Havertz
    Gosens
    Griezman

    1. dansmusen
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I am sticking with 6 points at this stage.

      1. BrutalLogiC
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Prob wise but think I'm leaning towards Gosens, 3/1 any time scorer and odds on for clean sheet.

  9. OLD Rafiki
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Gnabry to do the trick, i can say.

  10. OLD Rafiki
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Lol all the casuals who are on KDB 6 points and want to change should stop their greediness or it's going to cost them.

    1. Joey Tribbiani
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I mean they should change... People really need to take some risks on this type of fantasy game. Personally couldnt care less if my risks fail in this game and I end up like 1 million

      1. STEP rOVERS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        You fancy a game of Cups

        1. Joey Tribbiani
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          The cup game is a children's clapping game that involves tapping and hitting a cup using a defined rhythm. The game can be played by many players seated around a table and is often played in large groups. Each player possesses a cup and in unison the players tap out the defined rhythm using their cups.

          ??

    2. amplifiedAnt
      • 9 Years

      What an odd thing to 'lol' about.

    3. Studs Up
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years

      Still waiting for KDB hatrick I guess?...lol

  11. Aribo Starmix
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Coady at 4.5 is going to be one of the highest "owned by %"... absolute bargain if the Wolves defence gets back to anything like the sort of form they're capable of

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      a player with zero goal threat will never be a bargain

      1. The Fantastic Mr Fox
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        That's an odd take. All he needs to do is get points. It doesn't matter how those r accrued

        1. OPTA FPL
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          almost every 4.5M defender will give you 8-12 CS every season, without goal threat he's nothing speacial

        2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Have to agree with Silent Fiend - no idea how you’re getting Coady as an absolute bargain if Wolves return to “what they’re capable of”

          In their 3 seasons in the premiership they’ve never been capable of getting more than 115 points for Coady…

          And that’s with him playing every single minute of every single game!

  12. The Mighty Whites
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Stick with KDB as captain or...

    Stones
    Gosens
    Alba
    Gnabry
    Havertz
    Mbappe
    Ronaldo

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Havertz

      1. Baron Penguin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Depends on mentality. If you want to play like England, and be more worried about conceding than actually attacking, then stick. If you want to be like Italy, always hungry for more and pressing on for rewards right up to the final whistle, then twist.

  13. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Depay (c) stick or twist?

    1. Soto Ayam
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Goal and an assist. Twist if you're chasing I guess.

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years

      I'm sticking. My highest © haul till now.

  17. N00B
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    I have Depay (c) but I think Robertson is a good captain for today:
    - Home game and must win for Scotland
    - Croatia are bad at defending set pieces
    - Robertson takes corners for Scotland and created a lot of chances

    1. Flaming Flamingo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      It's also a must win for Croatia and they are the better team imo. Then again, there aren't many great options today so if you have him and need a captain why not?

  18. Congers

  19. Rohirrims
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    The price rises in the Euros game have been an unexpected bonus. My team value has increased to 101.6 or 106.6 for the unlimited transfers. Think this could be a good advantage against teams which have used up their WC chip and not paid too much attention to value.

    1. buzzkill

      They give you an extra 5m for the R16
