Cristiano Ronaldo’s FPL price and position revealed

Cristiano Ronaldo has finally been priced up by Fantasy Premier League (FPL) following the completion of his transfer from Juventus to Manchester United.

The 36-year-old striker has been listed as a forward in FPL and comes in at £12.5m, making him the joint-most expensive player in the game alongside Mohamed Salah.

Ronaldo is £1.0m pricier than Romelu Lukaku (£11.5m) and some £400k dearer than Bruno Fernandes (£12.1m), who many Fantasy managers are seemingly offloading in order to fund a move for his incoming compatriot.

The former Juve and Real Madrid man’s FPL price, as is the case with all new additions, will be locked for seven days upon his Tuesday lunchtime inclusion in the game.

Fernandes remains, for now, the most-owned player in the game despite the 100,000+ sales since the Gameweek 3 deadline.

    1) Is DCL a doubt for GW4?
    2) Who's the best 4.5 keeper?
    3) Duffy still nailed?
    4) Is Raphinha travelling to Brazil?

      1) 50% currently being assessed
      2) Sanchez or Guaita
      3) Don't know
      4) No, as far as Im aware

      1) 50/50
      2) Raya Sanchez
      3) Probably: Veltman Webster Duffy Dunk Cucurella
      4) Probably, unless Leeds wants to face additional bans. Regardless if he goes or not, I think he misses GW4 because FIFA will ban players for an additional 5 days if the club doesnt allow them to go

    Apologies if this has been discussed at nauseam, but how may points/goals do you reckon Ronaldo scores this season?

    I'm looking at the historical scoring of premium forwards (Vardy,Lukaku), and for Vardy, he has scored over 20 goals 3 times, all seasons where he played over 3,000 minutes and never scored over 211 points.

    Lukaku's best return was 221, playing 3266 minutes

    Do you see Ronaldo somehow matching Salah at 230+ points? Will he even match Lukaku for 1 million less?

    I agree that the premium midfielder pool is dwindling, but it's a reminder how difficult it can be to keep up with midfielder scoring with one less point for goals, no CS points.

    1. Dr. Rog
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      he doesnt do assists that much, so he wont score as much as people think.

      1. mixology
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I agree. Honestly, someone like Son (who I'm not planning to bring in) can likely outscore Ronaldo over the season. Ronaldo has the captaincy factor, but I don't see him scoring over, say 210 points. I need to do some maths but I just don't see a Salah 230+ score for him

      2. FPL Theorist
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, Ronaldo had 29 G, 3 A last year in the league for Juve. That's about the same as Kane in 2017-18 (29 G, 2 A, 217 pts). Taking into account that the Prem is tougher than Serie A, he'll probably score slightly less than this.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      think it might be easier for forwards to get bonus points the last couple of years - but yeah I do prefer capping midfielders for those reasons at the end

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        there are some long articles at length that discuss this and yes goals matter and scoring them gives a massive baseline score, so that will help. I do wonder if some of the other elements of his game might be a negative for the bonus system however. it would be an interesting topic for an article i suppose.

        1. SADIO SANÉ
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          yeah good point

    3. WHUFCSmith23
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I assume we will all go one striker, one mid right?

    4. Budgies
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I see Ronaldo outscoring Salah, Ronaldo has averaged 32 goals for the past 10 seasons which equates to 180 pts and that is without any bonus pts or assists being added.... can't see why he can't continue that form.

      1. mixology
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Hmm 32 goals in the remaining 35 fixtures?

  4. Dr. Rog
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Fix - Fastest risers across FPL: Ronaldo (67.3% per hour) lol.

  5. abcdef3
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How's this wildcard looking?

    Sanchez
    Trent, Sanchez, White
    Salah, Raphinha, Sarr, Smith-Rowe
    Ronaldo, Lukaku, Antonio

    Steele, Allan, Duffy, Livramento

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

      Midfield and def look pretty weak. I think 2 premiums is the way to go.

    2. luk46
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Lukaku > DCL and go with Reguilon, Jota and Raphinha or so

  6. Free Hat
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Everyone talking about ronaldo or lukaku up front
    when im still looking at dcl and bamford 😀

    And I wouldnt want to lose antonio as well.

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

      Ronaldo, Atonio , DCL for the win.

      1. Free Hat
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Im rather thinking lukaku, antonio and dcl but after gw 6 or so bamford

    2. luk46
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      which is why I dont like the idea of both Lukaku and CR7

      1. Free Hat
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, too much value for now in forward bracket.
        And they all keep scoring (for now.)

  7. farmerfat
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Who wants to guess what Ronaldo's ownership will be by gw4 deadline?

    My guess is 15%

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Higher

    2. R.C.
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      35%

    3. Free Hat
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Too many, for a player who (in my humble opinion) could be benched.

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

        He very well could be!

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

        Do yous seriously think a player of his caliber earning £500k per week will be benched?

        1. Free Hat
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I really do. For the reason he is away on internationals, almost no training with the team and cavani who will stay at the club for the break.
          I see no reason why Ole would need to 'risk' him from the start at home vs new, when he could easily could be sub around 60min.
          But hell, who knows.

    4. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I think it could end up 20-25%

    5. Dr. Rog
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      The prodigal son returns. I expect 15-20%, but with a lot of Lukaku sellers as well (somewhat unexpected that) it could be closer to 25%.

      1. Pep bites Kun
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        18,955 Lukaku sellers. That is surprising

        1. Andy_Social
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I'll be the one bringing him in, but I'll wait!

    6. Agent J
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He is already 3% in 2 hours. Expect him to be 30%+

      Managers will be humbled by the statistics about why he is a GOAT and will make a move towards him.
      Some others will fall in EO well

    7. FPL Pillars
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      33%

    8. bench boost for every gamew…

      50

    Best Bruno replacement to enable cr7?

    A. Jota

    D. Adama

    1. farmerfat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      A or B. If Firmino is injured A is probably best

    2. luk46

      A C B D E

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Take Dan James off the list

      A if Firmino is out longer than a month, otherwise B or C

      A) Jota + TAA + Schmeichel

      B) Lukaku + White/Duffy + Sanchez

      Thoughts?

        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Depends on Firmino mainly.

        1. Arvin-ation
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Lets assume he's out for 2-3 weeks, which would it be?

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 15 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            GWs or weeks? Don't really like Schm there. Given the Pool fixtures and 3 GWs, A with another GK.

            1. Arvin-ation
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              Cheers 🙂

              Think I prefer A too.

              1. TorresMagic™
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 15 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                Highly doubtful 3 GWs though.

    3. Dr. Rog

      I like these graphics

      Should give you an idea of the near term trends regarding Ronaldo

    4. Karan14
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Personally feel Ronaldo is going to walk into the starting 11 for Newcastle. We have been desperately needed a Striker for last 2 games and that could be seen when Ole sent on Cavani on the 51st min.

      If fit and starting for Portugal I cannot see Ronaldo not starting against Newcastle.

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I think he'll start personally, but I think it's fair to say he might not - not sure I'd want to captain him with Salah vs Leeds and Lukaku vs Martinez-less Villa as alternatives

        1. Karan14
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          All 3 are great options there's not much to split there imo. Mostly comes down to luck.

        2. Dr. Rog
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          I have a sneaking suspicion that the week is going to be a debate about Ronny vs Rommy but Salah(c) will have the last laugh

    5. Gazza2000
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Who would you get for in for Barnes?

      Have 7.8 to spend, can't have Jota as I already have three Liverpool already but thinking one of Greenwood, Mount or Torres?

      1. Villa Velour
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Is one of those 3 liverpool Tsmikas? If so, he's dropping tonight so might be worth taking him out to get Jota in. That's my plan, at least 🙂

        1. Gazza2000
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah but won't take him out for a -4 though

    6. sirmorbach
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      How solid/viable is Ferran Torres as an option?

      1. Stupendous
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Fantastic option but not at all nailed, even less when Foden and Kdb return

        You know the deal with City

    7. Kane Train
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Which one?

      Bruno & DCL
      Or
      Jota & Ronaldo

      1. Andrew
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        J & R

      2. TheTinman
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Jota and DCL

    8. Mizzzza
      • 14 Years

      Everton fans...

      Is Coleman nailed?

      1. jpb333
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Depends on whether they sign AMN today. If they don't , then Coleman doesn't really have any competition

    11. thepancakeman123
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Is it worth leaving Ronaldo out for this?

      Sanchez
      Trent, Shaw, Coleman, White
      Salah, Son, Jota, Raphinha
      Lukaku - Antonio

      Steele, Allan, Livramento, 4.5 forward

    12. Kimmich
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Ronaldo or No Ronaldo

      Team 1:
      Sanchez
      TAA - Christensen - Coady (Livramento - Duffy)
      Salah - Fornals - Raphinha - Gray (Sissoko)
      Ronaldo - Lukaku - Antonio

      Team 2:
      Sanchez
      TAA - Shaw - Dier (Coady - Livramento)
      Salah - Torres - Jota - Raphinha (Sissoko)
      Lukaku - DCL - Antonio

      Imagine going Ronaldo over Kane

      1. Stupendous
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Easy.

        Ronaldo over Kane

      2. Dr. Rog
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        its like the Euros all over... Ronaldo Kane Lukaku.

        Where is Depay signing?

    14. OldBenKenobi
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Wildcard draft. Yay or nay?

      Sanchez
      TAA Ayling Coady
      Salah Raphinha Sarr Traore
      Ronaldo Lukaku Antonio

      Steel, Allan, Livramento, Duffy

      1. Stupendous
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I like it but not set on Traore and Raph has shown no form yet

        Also missing a Chelsea defender which come week 7 is a must I think

      2. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        My exact team.

    15. Bobby Digital
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Ings dropping 😮

    16. Andrew
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Is Ronaldo worth a 4 point hit?

      If so it will be for Ings so I'd need to downgrade Bruno to a midfielder £8.2m or less and I already have Raphina and Benrahma alongside Salah so who should I get if anyone?

    17. Lucas World Conquest
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Ronaldo and Lukaku kills a strong midfield and good defenders, as a Newcastle fan I feel like the inevitable is that Ronaldo scores a hat trick whilst starting.

    18. Stupendous
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A different WC draft perhaps.....

      Sanchez
      Tanganga Reguilon James TAA
      Benrahma Torres Salah Gray
      LuKaku Ronaldo

      4.0.m Dennis Bissouma Livramento

    19. Pep Roulette
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Best mid for 7.5? Except Benrahma & Gray!

      1. Stupendous
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Greenwood Jota Torres

        Pick one.

        1. Pep Roulette
          • 7 Years
