FPL team reveals: The best five Hall of Fame managers’ Gameweek 1 drafts

12 August 2021 1082 comments

Skonto Rigga

The top five managers in Fantasy Football Scout’s Hall of Fame have all exclusively revealed their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) teams ahead of Friday’s Gameweek 1 deadline.

These are the cream of the crop; the FPL bosses who haven’t just racked up one outstanding overall rank but several of them.

They are as follows:

Fábio Borges: The Hall of Fame number 1. Has finished in the top 5k in each of the last five seasons and never outside of the top 20,000.
Tom Stephenson: Five-time top 5k finisher and 13 consecutive top 40k overall ranks.
Finn Sollie: Seven top 10k finishes in the last 11 seasons, including an overall rank of 39th in 2020/21.
Morten Tveito: Four straight top 10k overall ranks, three of which have been 1,051st or better.
Yavuz Kabuk: Seven successive top 10k finishes and eight in all, featuring two in the top 1,000.

The Hall of Famers have been good enough to share their drafts with us ahead of Gameweek 1 although we’ve respected the wishes of two of them to not have their names attached to a particular team reveal, so have instead anonymised all five.

    1. We *know* Lukaku will be => 11mil
    
    2. Away to Ars & 'Pool GW 2 & 3
    
    3. How much planning do we need? One heavy hitter out, one in. (Haven't seen a balanced team with 3x 11mil to 12.5 mil players.)
    
    Means = We have time.

        Mind you I did come to the realisation that I’m actually pretty crap at this game.
        
        I think it’s just human nature. I’m naturally quite an impulsive person.
        
        Stubborn too, hence Sancho being stuck in my team… 😆

      Would love to adopt this attitude for next season and leave it until the final week to start choosing a team, but I know what I'm like and soon as the game is released I'd be like a kid waking up on Christmas Day and would just have to get involved lol

        It's only because I was so invested in last years game because I finished so high. Taking a big break this summer.
        
        Team feels a little template though, because essentially I've just caught up on what the general vibe is and picked that side. Normally I have a few punts in there.

  Wrestling with this as well - Wilson has a terrific track record vs West Ham, and can see him getting one at home but also think Toney is going to deliver tomorrow.
  
  Someone will make way for Lukaku for me, so leaning Toney Antonio Ings to start GW1.

Doesn't seem like many moons ago Lukaku was open to regular serious ridicule on her being just a big lumbering buffoon of a player. Major Troll.

  Confidence. As someone who watches a ton of Serie A, Conte was the best thing to ever happen to him. Self belief is a remarkable thing, he bought into what he was selling and he was a menace that season to defend. Much more clinical too.
  
  Let's see how this translates back in England but expect we see a hungrier nastier version who will be an FPL must have.

  He still is a big lumbering buffoon of a player IMO.
  
  He isn't as good as Kane, Lewandowski, Aguero etc. IMO and that is what he was being compared against.
  
  But even as a buffoon of a player he is still good for goals. That was true at WBA, Everton and Man Utd.

One of TAA, Salah or Bruno is going to have to go for Lukaku...but who?

Currently leaning towards TAA being the fall guy as an enabler to get Jota in the team (and going with Tsim as my pool defender)

my team when lukaku is announced, robertson fit (cant see a 7m player capable of 200 points) and kane moves to city (150m he has to start every week). Thoughts? i know the mid is taking a punt (cant see a 7m player capable of 200 points)

Sanchez - Foster
TAA - Robertson - Ayling - Lowton - White
Salah - Barnes - Rafinha - Bissouma - Brownhill
Kane - Lukaku - Davis

  Robertson isnt fit for a few weeks though? If you want a premium defender that bad just get Shaw/Stones/Digne/VVD until Robbo is back

    yeah, robertson is missing the first 3 but im building a team now for that in mind while trying to not take more than a 4 point hit

      You get a FT every week, just pick VVD and swap him for Robbo if you really want

Lukaku should be the ultimate flat track bully. Amazing captain option when playing the bottom 12-14 teams. Whatever price

On a BB.

A. Raya, Amartey, Gundo
B. Schmeichel, Veltman, Raphina

Think B looks better and safer but worry is I'll have no City players for the NOR game and not a good way to get them in either.

  I like Gundo but the Amartey pick in A is not good for long term. B is preferable, if your a daredevil go Raya, Veltman and Torres, if your happy to risk Torres subbing on vs Norwich.

Would you Bench boost..

Bachmann. Raphinha. White. Brownhill?

Have ings and Toney v those defenders if that makes a difference.

I probably won’t as could easy see 8 point wipeout. But could also get a sheet somewhere and a Raph goal making it closer to 20

  Go for it, the BB double gameweeks might need the likes of Lukaku, De Bruyne etc who are all expensive, so GW1 is a potentially worthwhile risk.

Interesting to see that the five teams in the article are all very similar, and all quite template/dullard. Reinforces the idea that it's probably the sensible move to play it safe for GW1.

  Yeah, i just made a draft with Digne in it for the first time in a few weeks. Template in goal, defence, striker, with a mid of Salah, Bruno, Mahrez as a 433 doesnt look bad

  Mark summarised on Blackbox nicely that the top 10 in the world went quite template at the start last season bar Son and DCL. You could go dullard but the problem is the template has gained so much traction because of last season, but it could easily be usurped by picks like Mane, Son etc., hopefully the template doesn't do well to make FPL interesting.

Which one? I like B more but rather Ings than Watkins, could downgrade Barnes to Benrahma/Raphinia and upgrade a 4.5 to Coufal if it’s the former

TAA, Shaw, White, Ayling, ****
