The FPL Dream Team: The all-time highest-scoring XI

FPL Focal has been playing Fantasy Premier League (FPL) for over 11 years and spent two Gameweeks ranked number one in the world in the 2021/22 season.

Oscar makes FPL videos on his YouTube channel and in this latest of a summer series looking back at some cult Fantasy figures, celebrates the highest-scoring FPL assets of all time.

The team spans from as early as the 2002/03 season to as recently as 2022/23.


BRAD FRIEDEL

In goal, it’s Brad Friedel from the 2002/03 season. The American registered 187 points with Blackburn Rovers, making 37 appearances and keeping 15 clean sheets. This was a successful year for Rovers under Graeme Souness, with the former Premier League champions finishing sixth and qualifying for the UEFA Cup.

Remarkably, Friedel remains in the all-time dream team despite appearing in the very first-ever edition of Fantasy Premier League. Bonus points worked very differently back then: it wasn’t automated by an algorithm like today’s bonus system but rather decided by a person – the ‘Man in the Stand’ – who judged who had the best performance. Additionally, there was no one or two points bonus awarded, just three.

Friedel holds the record for consecutive Premier League games played, with an unbelievable 310 matches in a row, spanning from 2004 to 2012 across three clubs and eight years.

He also achieved that rarest of goalkeeping feats, finding the back of the net for Blackburn in 2003/04.

An honourable mention goes to Emi Martinez, who was just one point off tying Friedel’s score in the 2020/21 campaign.

TRENT ALEXANDER-ARNOLD, ANDREW ROBERTSON, VIRGIL VAN DIJK

Next up is Trent Alexander-Arnold, who got 210 points in the 2019/20 season. He smashed the record for assists by a defender that season, with 15, and also registered four goals, 14 clean sheets and 24 bonus points along the way. Alexander-Arnold actually knocked Joleon Lescott out of the Dream Team with this score, with the former Everton and Manchester City stopper having scored 196 points for the Toffees in the 2007/08 season.

The next two defenders are also still on Liverpool’s books.

Virgil van Dijk and Andrew Robertson remarkably both qualified for the Dream Team in the 2018/19 season, a year before Alexander-Arnold joined them. They scored 208 and 213 points respectively.

Robertson and Alexander-Arnold’s record-busting numbers are one example of how football has evolved during FPL’s lifetime, with full-backs being much more heavily involved in attacking play than they were previously.

MOHAMED SALAH

Mohamed Salah‘s magnificent 2017/18 campaign saw him finish on 303 points, which was derived from 32 goals, 12 assists, 15 clean sheets and 26 bonus points. It was his first season with Liverpool and a truly extraordinary performance.

He’s the only player to ever break 300 points in FPL history, and his total of 32 goals was a Golden Boot record in the 38-match Premier League era until 2022/23.

FRANK LAMPARD

Frank Lampard finished on 284 points in the 2009/10 season. He scored an impressive 22 goals from midfield and picked up 14 assists en route to winning the league with Chelsea.

While debate rages over positional classifications in FPL, Lampard can be considered a true midfielder in footballing terms having played in the middle of the park for the bulk of his career.

CRISTIANO RONALDO

Cristiano Ronaldo is still a fixture in this team from the penultimate season of his first spell with Manchester United. He got 284 points from a staggering 31 goals and six assists in 2007/08, when he was classified as a midfielder in FPL.

That season Ronaldo did it all, scoring four free-kicks, four penalties, five headers and five goals with his weaker foot. Had he not missed three games following a red card, he could have tied or even beaten Salah’s single-season points record.

United went on to win the league in that campaign, losing only three fixtures.

ALEXIS SANCHEZ

Alexis Sanchez completes the midfield from his 2016/17 season with Arsenal, when he banked 264 points. Only two of his 24 goals were penalties, while he also chipped in with 10 assists.

Sanchez never hit the same heights again after that campaign, scoring just seven goals the following season before moving to Manchester United, but he was a truly elite pick at the peak of his powers during his Arsenal tenure.

Salah scored 265 points in the 2021/22 season, meaning he’s actually scored high enough to join the team twice, and Sanchez will be the first to leave the team if another midfielder matches or betters the Egyptian’s points tally from the campaign just gone.

LUIS SUAREZ

The first of our three strikers is Luis Suarez. The Uruguayan scored 295 points in the 2013/14 season, despite missing the first five games through suspension.

A total of 31 goals and 12 assists came from just 33 appearances as a result and, even more remarkably, not one of his strikes was a spot-kick.

Although Salah beat Suarez’s goals tally by one, the Uruguay international’s average of 0.94 goals per game comes out higher.

ERLING HAALAND

Replacing Robin van Persie, who scored 269 points in the 2011/12 season, is a certain Norwegian meatshield.

In one of the greatest debut FPL seasons we’ll ever see, the phenomenal Erling Haaland arrived at Manchester City with a huge reputation but lived up to it by breaking the all-time Premier League record for goals in a season.

Amongst these 36 strikes was an early run of three consecutive home hat-tricks, while it took ten games for him to record his first blank.

THIERRY HENRY

The final player is Thierry Henry, who like Friedel, still remains in the team from the season that FPL began. Henry scored 271 points in 2002/03, playing 37 games, scoring 24 goals and nabbing 20 assists. His total of 20 assists is still the record to this day for the most in a Premier League season.

The following season Arsenal would go on to have their iconic ‘Invincibles’ year.

Interestingly, back then, it was possible to play a 2-5-3 or 5-5-0 formation in FPL – not that you’d ever want to play a strikerless set-up with Henry in the form he was in.

With Salah as a set-and-forget captain, this team would finish on 3,145 points!

    Ah memories…

  2. Zimo

    I wouldn't be surprised if Tottenham end up winning the league this season. They have the best front 3 imo. Signed a solid midfielder in Bissouma. Ivan Perisic is a class talent at LWB. If they sign Eriksen as well they'll be challenging for sure. Solid team that.

    Son - Kane - Kulu
    Perisic - Bissouma - Eriksen - Doherty
    Davies - Dier - Romero
    Lloris

    1. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Yeah, with their current they can counter attack and beat rip apart any attacking team.
      Eriksen will be the addition that enables them to consistently beat defensive teams

    2. Andy_Social
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Don't think they'll overhaul City and 'Pool this season, but they could be a closer 3rd. Solid Top 4 at the very worst.

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Odds are low but I also wouldn't be surprised if it did happen. They have a serial winner in Conte as well.

    3. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      No chance.

      Need a new keeper, left centre back, midfield creator and a better right wing back. Top 4 at best

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        U don't need a better RWB. Doherty was playing so good before he got injured. All u need is a better backup. And Eriksen will be the creator. I think he'll join. A new keeper is needed though yes. Why is Lloris the captain?

        1. Zimo
          • 5 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          And there's still time for all those signings. Only spent 25m so far. I wish United would be this good at recruiting 🙁

        2. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          I think Lloris is top drawer

      2. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Disagree about the last two. If they get Eriksen and Spence they will be well equipped - at least going forward. I do agree, however, with your first two.

      3. Jordan.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        keepers crap and 16/1 with the bookies is no value at all

    4. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      They don't have the squad depth to do it imo.

      But on their day, their best XI can compete with the best teams in the world.

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Well they do seem to be addressing that this transfer window. After Eriksen they lack cover for Son and Kane and Doherty, and they're being linked to Richarlison and Djed Spence. If they get them too its gonna be a three horse race this season.

        1. Andy_Social
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Spence will join, but I don't see Richarlison happy to be backup.

    5. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Steady on!!

      Davies, Dier, Perisic and Doherty are not good enough to win the league. Heck, even Lloris.

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        And not to mention, squad depth is poor!!

      2. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        I dunno I'm just bored of seeing City win. I'm hoping Spurs surprise us all like Leicester did. What a season that was.

        1. Zimo
          • 5 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          They'll still come 3rd at least. Probably Arsenal 4th with Chelsea 5th and United 6th

        2. Old Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Yay Foxes!! 😀

    6. El Presidente
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Not a chance

    7. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Still tend to be streaky at times. Can beat anyone on their day and Conte is sharpening them. Kane can't afford to go missing like he did for a good chunk last season.

      I agree with others that City winning is getting old and I sure hope there's at least 3 in the mix for the title in March/April next year.

    8. The Mentaculus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Comfortable 3rd I reckon. Not really in the title race but well clear of 4th

    9. Waddlinho
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      If we talk about points, Spurs can do what Leicester did. They can get 81 points, no doubt about that. The problem is that PL have changed. 81 points won't make you champion anymore, you need 90+ points for that.

      To get there you need some serious squad depth. Make second XI for City, Pool and Spurs and you'll see, Spurs can't compete with those two.

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Liverpool cruised to the title without any depth in 2019. Its definitely possible. Just need luck on your side with no injuries.

    10. TheBiffas
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Liverpool have the best front 3

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Second best

    11. Arteta
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      I just can't see Spurs winning the league and I'm not saying this because I'm an Arsenal fan, but because City and Liverpool are too strong and too good. Guardiola will soon add Haaland, Alvarez, Phillips and Cucurella to his already fantastic squad. Mane is a big loss for Klopp but he's got Nunez and Carvalho instead to work with now. They're still active on the market as well and strenghtening. To sum up, both teams got even better, their mentality is on another level and squad depth will be really important with the new rule of 5 subs. Top 2 is already decided before the season even starts, if you ask me.

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Who doesn't love an underdog story 😉

    12. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years

      Arsenal will finish above them

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Well realistically no but anything is possible

          24 points difference lmao.
          Spurs are spurs.

    13. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      1 year, 9 months ago

      I’d be surprised. After City and Liverpool I think they’re the best of the rest but still some way off those 2. It’s an interesting juxtaposition though with a club that are historically and naturally bottlers having an absolute winner as the manager. Looking forward to seeing how it unfolds.

      Saw a highlights reel of Henry recently - just looks better every time. Can't imagine any fantasy manager didn't have him in their team.

    2. Ser Davos
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      I can't resist an indulgent trip down nostalgic lane

      The best season has to be Suarez. To do what he did in limited games and with no pens. That's superhuman

      Not sure even Messi and Ronaldo had a season that could top that, all factors considered (I know one of your other videos focussed on an alien-like Messi 11-12)

      Interesting that 5-5-0 used to be a formation and when Friedel got thoss bonus it was only when a solitary three were handed out to one player

      1. Grande Tubarão
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 2 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Completely agree. I think if you’re looking at a player’s peak power based on a season Suarez had a better season that year than anyone else has ever been capable of (barring Messi in 11-12 which doesn’t even count on the grounds that what he did wasn’t human).

      2. Hooky
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Suarez was the ultimate flat track bully. 10 of those goals were against Cardiff and Norwich!

    Nice article
    Would be interesting to know how much that team would set you back on GW1

    1. Zimo

      I miss permacapping Suarez

  6. KeanosMagic

    1 year, 9 months ago

    Has anyone ever gone TAA Robbo VVD and ignored Salah?

    Tried this a few seasons ago and didn't have the will power to stick it out, but might help unlock better options up front this season?

    1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      I feel when you have TAA and Robbo in the team then no Salah ‘feels’ better even if cover is a myth. I feel Son and the Man City bloke will be my premiums this year

    2. Ser Davos
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      It's an annual pre-season debate. I'd say captaincy can be so pivotal that Salah needs to be accessible as easy as possible. 3 x Pool defenders really hinders that

  7. Fish up a tree
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    Looking at the fixtures for the big teams is anyone thinking to go all in on defence including a premium keeper it no decent 4.5’s?

    Possible big a the back team….

    Alisson
    TAA Laporte Cancelo Chilwell Tierney
    Diaz Maddison Son
    Jesus Wilson

    1. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Premium defence, not premium keeper.

    2. TheBiffas
      • 3 Years

      Don't like it

  8. bitm2007
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    Friedel if you gave me 20 guesses, I doubt I'd have come up with him. The rest of that team I'd probably have got very quickly with no City being what was most likely to catch me out, and I'd have had RVP in a United not Arsenal shirt.

  9. OPTA FPL
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    Harland or KDB is the biggest problem

    1. Jaws
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      KDB is a notorious slow starter.

  10. RUUD!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    Is there a way to see all of your FPL team history? I seem to remember captaining Friedel many many many years ago and I think he got clean sheet and penno save. The Bentley and Santa Cruz days

    1. Ser Davos
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Ah, this is what I was going to additionally mention when I responded to Focal up top there... the lack of FPL history!

      Sad that the personal history gets lost. I hope the overall is one day easily accessible

      **Transfermarkt is excellent

  11. Big boy Bowen

    _____
    Trent | Robertson | Cancelo | _____ | _____
    Salah | Bowen | Kulusevski | _____ | _____
    Haaland | Mitrovic | _____

    Just need to fill in the blanks!

    1. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Maybe 2 of Eriksen/Bruno G/Martinelli for the mid spots, 4.5 keeper, 4.5 def and a 4.0 def and whatever is left for 3rd striker?

      1. Root
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        You'll need two 4.5 mids.

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Man sounds like the pricing is going to be really tough

    2. Fish up a tree
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Easy they all need to be 4.5 or 4 as you have spunked your budget!

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Only 2 premiums

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          As in 10+ players. Kulu won’t be much more either as he started last season at 6.0, can’t see him being over 7.5

    3. LangerznMash
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      I think you will only have £30m left to get 7 players so you will need starting £4m players.

    4. Zimo
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      U have around 30 left for 7 players. 8.5 for goalkeepers taken out u got 21.5 for 5. U can only afford 4m defenders and 4.5 mids/fwds

      1. Zimo
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        There's a simple solution. Don't get Mitrovic and downgrade

        1. Zimo
          • 5 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          You'll have to play 5-4-1 with two 4.5 Defenders and a 5.5 mid though

          1. Zimo
            • 5 Years
            1 year, 9 months ago

            Mid could be Neto for example with Wolves fixtures or Harrison maybe. But would u trust any of the 4.5 Defenders to play regularly each week?

            1. Dynamic Duos
              • 10 Years
              1 year, 9 months ago

              There will be a good one at Wolves

    5. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Just done the maths, with 4.5/4.0 keepers and a 4.5 striker it leaves me with 18 for 2 defs and 2 mids.

      So 1 x 4.5 def and 1 x 4.0 def, 2 mid spots would have to be 1 x 5.0 and 1 x 4.5.
      Man we need a 4.0 mid and striker!

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Or go 5-3-2 with 1 5.0 def and a 4.5

  12. Eze Really?

    The Premier League:
    ManU, Pool and Arsenal: Their longevity originally created by consistent performance. Their commercial clout, like it or not, created by America. 170 mil NFL fans creates more revenue than 4 billion Football fans. They see the market and will grow it whether we want to believe it or not.
    Citeh and Chelski: A creation of the super rich who throw dodgy money at the clubs. Like it or not, it works. On top of that, they have had the good fortune to make the move before the stable door was closed.
    Newcastle and Everton; the latter being an epic fail. With the added mix of Financial Fair Play, helped along by the haves stopping the have nots to get the dodgy way to the top of the Tree.
    Spurs: TBF they have come as close as anyone to climbing the ladder, not using the same methods of the previously mentioned.
    The rest: A hard slog for them all, having to fight with one arm tied behind their backs.
    We don't want a SUPER LEAGUE? WHAT? WE ALREADY HAVE ONE!
    Most football supporters (sheep) don't give a continental how their teams get to the top; they just want to be there.
    The PL and EUFA have got a bloody nerve really getting on their high horse about the Super League.

      The Super League was trying to create a closed shop with no possibility of relegation for the richer clubs.
      The 'big six' in our Premier League may indeed be super, but other clubs still have the possibility of getting promoted to it and competing against them.
      And once-great clubs like Everton can still come very close to relegation.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years

        Do you really think our "traitor six" don't want a closed shop? Don't you think EUFA don't want the same but with their rules?
        We cannot change the inevitable.
        Possibility of relegation for the big clubs? Don't see it happening anytime soon.

          The Italians and Americans wanted a closed shop and thought it was inevitable, but we soon proved that it wasn't.

          Some of our big six may still want a Super League, but we don't have one now - just six rich clubs that usually dominate the most exciting national league, and there will always be strong resistance from the general public to this changing so it is by no means inevitable imo.

          1. Eze Really?
            • 9 Years
            1 year, 9 months ago

            Inevitable may have been taken out of context. Not the format proposed but in the a format suited to the EPL or EUFA.

              Money will always distort any pretensions to equality, but the fact that your club came so close to relegation after all its history and recent investment suggests to me that the PL is in a relatively healthy state.

              1. Eze Really?
                • 9 Years
                1 year, 9 months ago

                A fair but expected response. There are teams that will fail. Ah La Everton! However, money and amateurs don't mix. Usmenov was taken out of the Arsenal equation by the yanks and his "bunny" Moshiri created the monster. There will always be exceptions; poor management usually the accomplice. Remaining healthy is easier given where the goalposts are situated. We are in a Super League already; just not the one anticipated by Spain, Italy and France.

  13. adstomko

    Pretty sure my team will look something like this. Think I'll avoid the new big-hitters for the opening fixtures:

    Meslier
    Trent, Van Dijk, Cancelo, Chilwell
    Son, Saka, Maddison, Johnson
    C.Wilson, Watkins

    Henderson, Wissa, 4.0, 4.5.

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      You will have Salah

      1. adstomko
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        He'll be too expensive for his average form after AFCON, and points will more spread across Liverpool's attack than before imo

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Make sure you link your team at the beginning of the season , I will bookmark this and remind you when you start with Salah

          1. adstomko
            • 7 Years
            1 year, 9 months ago

            I think KDB and Son will outscore Salah this year

    2. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      I like Wissa. Funny enough, If Matip plays I want Robbo and him. Could save 2 mil with a little points sacrifice. Wait for Covid to return and the money could be used for the bench.

      1. adstomko
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Wissa ended the season well and he'll be even cheaper than Mbeumo

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          I like the Wissa pick to

  14. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 9 months ago

    Why do people think Trent and Robertson will both go up from their starting price last season?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Should be 7.5m and 7m again imo

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Yeah with Cancelo also at 7.0

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Yeah sounds about right

    2. Zimo
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 9 months ago

      Because Trents final price was 8.4. He will at least be 8. I don't know about Robertson

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Hmm his ending price season before last was 7.8 but he was 7.5

        1. Zimo
          • 5 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          And I have rounded down as well. So 8

    3. DelPiero10
        1 year, 9 months ago

        Consistent output I suppose. I like LiveFPL'd pricing. TAA (8), Robertson (7.5), Cancelo (7). It makes perfect sense to me.

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          1 year, 9 months ago

          Think that makes Cancelo too obvious a pick

          1. DelPiero10
              1 year, 9 months ago

              He's only delivered the goods for one season. For that reason I don't think he should be priced similarly to Robertson or TAA.

              1. Ser Davos
                • 8 Years
                1 year, 9 months ago

                Yes, we're don't know he's actually that nailed

          2. Zimo
            • 5 Years
            1 year, 9 months ago

            That is my prediction as well. But I'm still hoping Robbo is 7 too

            1. DelPiero10
                1 year, 9 months ago

                I think he's due a price increase. LiveFPL has nailed it IMO. I'm yet to find a price point I'd strongly disagree with and I've searched every player who's in contention for gw1.

                1. Big boy Bowen
                  • 7 Years
                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  Trent and Robbo HAVE to be only priced a max 0.5 apart, otherwise Robbo will be too obvious.

                  Likewise Cancelo has to only be max 0.5 away from the most expensive.

                  So I think it will either be:

                  Trent 8.0
                  Robertson 7.5
                  Cancelo 7.5

                  Or

                  Trent 7.5
                  Robertson 7.0
                  Cancelo 7.0

                  1. DelPiero10
                      1 year, 9 months ago

                      8, 7.5, and 7 is perfect imo.

                    • Zimo
                      • 5 Years
                      1 year, 9 months ago

                      I think the problem is its Cancelos first time doing this and he started at 6 so it'll be hard to justify him being on the same price as Robertson who has been doing it consistently for 4 years now

                      1. Big boy Bowen
                        • 7 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        7.5, 7.0 & 6.5 being too wishful thinking? Lol

                        1. Zimo
                          • 5 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          Haha probably

          3. Zimo
            • 5 Years
            1 year, 9 months ago

            There's going to be a OOP defender if Zinchenko goes to another Premier league club. And then 5 at the back for me will be confirmed. Way too many good options to not do that this year.

            1. Eze Really?
              • 9 Years
              1 year, 9 months ago

              We all tend to forget the 4.0/4.5 defensive enabler. To get value like that in a mid or forward we will have to spend around 6 mil. So 4 defenders for me.

              1. Zimo
                • 5 Years
                1 year, 9 months ago

                A 5.5 mid gem will unearth himself just the same as the 4.5 defender.

                1. Eze Really?
                  • 9 Years
                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  If so, it is still a mil more. And more difficult to maneuver a squad. Not sayin I don't like a big 5 all the same.

                  1. Zimo
                    • 5 Years
                    1 year, 9 months ago

                    Say Zinchenko is 5.5 and I use a 5.5 mid like Harrison or Neto. Is a 4.5 defender and 6.5 mid/fwd really better? They're on par with Zinchenko since he's playing as an attacking mid now in the new team and gets bonus clean sheet points. And the 5.5 mid is probably better than the 4.5 defender. But thats just my opinion.

                    1. Eze Really?
                      • 9 Years
                      1 year, 9 months ago

                      Nothing wrong with your opinion bud. It is still smoke and mirrors atm. Just saying a back is usually a better option for 1st sub.

                      1. Zimo
                        • 5 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        U aren't wrong. But the new 5 sub rule makes me think a bench in fpl will be pretty much useless. We'll be seeing more 1 pointers than before. So I'm just gonna have the one 4.5 mid as a playing sub to start with.

                        1. Eze Really?
                          • 9 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          Good point about 5 subs. As my username says, that could impact wing backs too. (smile)

                            1 year, 9 months ago

                            True very true. And that's why its all dependant on Zinchenko for me 😛

              'Big at the back' does not necessarily mean five big 'uns.
              Four big 'uns plus a cheap enabler often works out better.
              It's still much bigger than the once standard choice of at most two big 'uns together with rotating cheapies.
              Remember when the 'uber defence' was all the rage (five rotating cheapies)?

              1. Zimo
                • 5 Years
                1 year, 9 months ago

                I'll probably have Robbo, Cancelo, Perisic, Chilwell as the premiums. Zinchenko or Digne instead of Zinchenko if he doesn't leave for another Premier league club as the 5th in a formation of 5-4-1. I never like any of the 4.5s personally.

                1. RedLightning

                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  We can always hope for another Dallas, Lundstram or Wan-Bissaka as a 4.0 or 4.5 enabler who actually scores plenty of points.

                  1. Zimo
                    • 5 Years
                    1 year, 9 months ago

                    Hmm if so then I shall shift one of the premiums out!

              Any good mids predicted to be 6m? Thought on Neto and Johnson?

                • 7 Years
                1 year, 9 months ago

                Tempted to include both.
                Would rather have Johnson over Neto because the former wants to start for Wales at the World Cup.

                  Would you prefer him to a 6m defender?

                    Possibly yes, except for Chilwell

                Harrison has been excellent under the new gaffer.

              Did my first draft on LiveFPL

              Sanchez-(Ward)
              Robertson-Cancelo-Chilwell-Tsimikas-(Duffy)
              Salah-Kulusevski-Trossard-Brüno G-(Dendoncker)

              • 6 Years
              1 year, 9 months ago

              Having no Salah improves the team a lot. If we have two more captain options and Diaz, can Diaz cover him?

              1. FPL Pillars

                1 year, 9 months ago

                Salah capped by 3mil and scores a hatty. You do not have him = R.I.P.

                He’s the most consistent in the game, would definitely start with him.

                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  The following week he's capped by 3mil and blanks, but your alternative captain scores a hattie. Enormous green arrow, and you're back up to where you were two weeks previously.
                  Don't be terrified by his ownership - just decide whether your expect your team to score more with or without him.

                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  Highly unlikely. Salah won't be in my squad for gw1 but I'm not even entertaining the possibility of another Liverpool attacker matching him.

                • IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
                  • 7 Years

                  that's what I'm hoping for

                • Athletic Nasherbo
                  • 7 Years
                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  I really appreciate teams without Salah for example (or the most obvious big hitter)

                  When I played a few years ago I would have no Salah and no Trent. I even started last year without and started well due to Antonio and Benrahma (I did quit as I became addicted again and so I haven’t played in two years). However, the stress is not worth it. Go Salah and reassess in a few weeks. Easier to get him out than in.

                  Nah, Arsenal have done well to renew his contract. Probably not quite ready to lead the line but he’d be a great back up at the very least and could still develop further. If he’d left he’d definitely be leading the line for a top half team.

                Repost, does anyone know where 8 can get hold of all the fixtures on a spreadsheet, please?

                  Probably Ben Crellin

                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  Even Crellin doesn't have one (publicly available) yet.

                  I'm actually started putting together my own fixture ticker this year, with more subjective FDR coding. Only going up to GW16 for now, but I could share it when finished if you want..? Probably tomorrow

                    1 year, 9 months ago

                    I had a look on Crellins twitter account and it looks like he's got it on already. (I think?)

                    1. R.C
                      • 6 Years

                      Yes he created the sheet within the hour fixtures were announced

                      Ah ok. I see an image of it but not a downloadable spreadsheet. But then I don't have a twitter account so it annoyingly boots me off (asking for login) every 15 seconds or so

                  I made an Excel spreadsheet of all the 22/23 fixtures which you can have. Not sure how we can contact each other as I don't want to put my email address on here publicly.
                  Maybe one of the Mods can help out?

                Livefpl has Toney 7.5m.... he's going to be that high?

                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  Similar to Watkins.

                    Difficult to not start with big at the back with such high pricing for forwards

                  • 12 Years
                  1 year, 9 months ago

                  I think 7/7.5

                3. DelPiero10
                    1 year, 9 months ago

                    7.5m is too expensive imo. 6.5m makes more sense.

                      1 year, 9 months ago

                      What price for Mitrovic?

                      1. Drexl Spivey
                        • 5 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        £6.5m.

                      2. DelPiero10
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          I think they'll add him at 6.5m

                          1. TorresMagic™
                            • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                            1 year, 9 months ago

                            Would you pick him or Toney if they had similar fixtures and were both 6.5m?

                            1. DelPiero10
                                1 year, 9 months ago

                                I wouldn't like to have either of them in my squad tbh. If I absolutely had to choose between them then it would come down to which one I favored based on a number of factors. "similar fixtures" isn't enough of a differentiator. There's more to it than that.

                          2. R.C

                            1 year, 9 months ago

                            Toney should be 6.5m
                            Mitrovic should be 6m
                            Watkins should be 7m

                            imo

                            1. TorresMagic™
                              • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                              1 year, 9 months ago

                              Toney was 6.5 and finished 6.9

                      3. Athletic Nasherbo
                        • 7 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        Toney should be 7.0m, Watkins more likely to be 7.5m Mitrovic should be 6.5m

                    2. Athletic Nasherbo
                      • 7 Years
                      1 year, 9 months ago

                      I think the game launches Monday/Tuesday.

                      If Son is highly owned, is it better to draft in Salah, Haaland, and Son to avoid the big losses and those captaining Son? I get having three premiums is not ideal because you only Captain one each week, but is there a positive to having all three to play safe early on? (Essentially what argument is there that a team with those alongside Trent and Cancelo is a good thing?)

                      1. Dynamic Duos
                        • 10 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        2 at most for me, but probably just going Salah

                        1. Athletic Nasherbo

                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          Interesting! Makes sense if you think Salah Captain all the time.

                          Those Haaland numbers will be scary, but the team you can get is better. I just can’t bet against a striker from City who is a goal machine and has all the attributes to suit the league. Those fixtures too!

                          Where will you invest the money? Big at back? Or are 7-10m midfielders taking your fancy?

                            Something like this

                            4.5
                            8 7 6
                            13 9 8
                            7.5 7.5 7.5

                            With a 5m defender or 5.5m mid

                            1. Athletic Nasherbo
                              • 7 Years

                              Interesting. Good choices upfront too. I imagine you’ll target something like…

                              Wilson Watkins Jimenez

                              1. Dynamic Duos

                                1 year, 9 months ago

                                Yeah also like DCL and Toney

                              Or this maybe

                              4.5
                              8 7 6.5 6
                              13 9 8 6
                              7.5 7.5

                                Interesting. Haaland and definite no go for you then?

                                  Seems to detrimental to the team going 2/3 premiums and 100% going Salah

                                  This could be ok, depends what we get in def at 5 and 4.5

                                  4.5
                                  8 7 5 4.5

                                    Save option is this one above. Just need the game to launch! Will be watching his forum closely to see your decisions!

                        I think the start of the season is the time to take risks. You have all chips in hand and it’s when we have least information available to us (i.e. no form to base anything on). It’s the time to go for differentials. I remember a season in which Chelsea and Villa (I think maybe Arsenal and I guess someone else too?) opened the season with a DGW - I captained Benteke and ended up 29th in the world as very few had done the same. Of course it was all down hill from there but I still think it’s the best time to take some punts.

                      Might this team be within budget?

                      Rodak Meslier
                      Trent Targett Digne Branthwaite Lamptey

                        On second thought, I want to swap out Branthwaite for Coufal. He might be 1m more expensive than Branthwaite though, so I'm not sure how feasible that will be. Cash might be also dearer than Digne, but I think I fancy him better than Digne.

                      Why is Spurs trying to sign Eriksen? Change in formation?

                      Does that mean Kulusevski will move to wingback?

                        Nostalgia?

                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        No, I’m not seeing that. I think what they each offer is so different I don’t think they’re competing. I’d expect Eriksen to be deeper and more central.

                        1. R.C
                          • 6 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          Son Kane up top with Eriksen behind. Perisic and Kulu wingbacks. Bissouma/Bentancur/Hojbjerg two CMs

                          1. Grande Tubarão
                            • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                            1 year, 9 months ago

                            I think they’ll stick with Kane up top with Son and Kulu behind and then Eriksen/Bissouma/Bentacur/Hojbjerg for 3 spots behind - so not a lot different to yours. Think Kulu’s a bit wasted at wing back though.

                            1. Grande Tubarão
                              • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                              1 year, 9 months ago

                              That 4-3-2-1 could also become a 4-2-3-1 against weaker opposition by simply pushing Eriksen up

                              1. Dynamic Duos
                                • 10 Years
                                1 year, 9 months ago

                                Spurs will play 5 at the back

                                1. Grande Tubarão
                                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                                  1 year, 9 months ago

                                  True, actually. I guess that 4 competing for 3 spots becomes 4 competing for 2

                        • 3 Years

                        A lack of creativity particularly through the middle, they don't really have any penetration centrally and struggle to break down low blocks. He can also ease the burden on Kane meaning he doesn't need to keep dropping deep to do that job

                    5. Arteta
                      • 8 Years
                      1 year, 9 months ago

                      I seriously can't wait for Nket14h to prove all of the doubters wrong. 20+ G/A combined in all competitions, I'm calling it now.

                        Fpl price prediction? Will Jesus not take his place if Arsenal sign him?

                        1. KujaliaFC
                          • 11 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          Not necessarily. Saka kept Pepe out of the team last season.

                        2. Fish up a tree
                          • 2 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          He won’t be an FPL option if Jesus signs unfortunately. I see him getting plenty of goals from the bench but mainly in the Europa & cups where he will get the starts

                          1. KujaliaFC
                            • 11 Years
                            1 year, 9 months ago

                            Jesus can also play on the wing. He's versatile. I heard he even walks on water.

                        3. Arteta
                          • 8 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          I would say either 7.0 or 7.5 because FPL towers can't afford to make him too cheap. I'm pretty sure Gabriel isn't signing for us to sit on the bench and will come in the team straightaway. Who starts up front depends on how pre-season goes but I can definitely see Jesus - Nketiah - Saka as the starting trio at some point of the season. Martinelli and Smith Rowe will get their minutes too, as will Vieira. If Arsenal splash the cash on another class forward a la Osimhen/Nkunku/Raphinha/Gnabry, things change again. This is of course very unlikely but I would absolutely love it.

                      2. Grande Tubarão
                        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                        • 2 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        If he’s 1st choice I think he’ll do that comfortably. Arsenal have a lot of games to play this season potentially with Europe too.

                      3. SkyByBo
                        • 14 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        Is 20 G/A across 4 competitions for a striker particularly good?

                        1. Grande Tubarão
                          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                          • 2 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          It’s a low bar for sure.

                        2. Arteta
                          • 8 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          I'd say it depends on player's minutes and injuries during the year. I didn't want to say 30 G/A and I always try to manage my expectations, even though I think he can become 20 goals per season striker in the future. I've read way too much negative comments how fans think this is a huge mistake, he isn't good enough and doesn't deserve the No. 14 etc. and I just wanted to show some support. I think this contract is a sign of belief and confidence in a Hale End graduate, who could become a star. People tend to forget he just turned 23 and didn't get a proper chance at this club until April.

                        • 7 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        If Jesus signs then will he even start?

                        1. KujaliaFC
                          • 11 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          Yes. He's a top level BPL striker. He can easily start at CF with Jesus in the squad.

                          1. FPL Pillars
                            • 7 Years
                            1 year, 9 months ago

                            Top is a bit of a stretch. Midtier at best

                        2. Arteta
                          • 8 Years
                          1 year, 9 months ago

                          We'll see what Arteta and co. have in mind soon and if somebody else will join before the season starts. But generally, I expect more rotation between attackers more than ever before (five substitutes rule).

                      • 7 Years
                      1 year, 9 months ago

                      Livefpl predicts Harrison at 5.5m, but I can’t see anything less than 6.0m. Thoughts (because I think he’s a nice option)

                      1. Dynamic Duos
                        • 10 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        He is a good pick in that bracket

                      2. Grande Tubarão
                        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                        • 2 Years
                        1 year, 9 months ago

                        I agree with LiveFPL I think. 5.5

                          It’d likely happen in the morning of a weekday

                          Whatever day the reveals start you'd know in the morning UK time as that's when they'll do the "is anybody ready for some price reveals?" Tweet

                          If it passes midday UK time and that tweet hasn't happened, it won't be a day the reveals happen on

                          I played in the first couple of Fantasy Leagues ran by The Telegraph, where you had to post in your squad selection pre season and post transfer requests at the few opportunities they allowed you during the season..obviously a while ago before the internet, when most of the fpl community were not born.

                          Not this version but I was playing FF in 1994-5 when Shearer and Fowler were banging the goals in.

                            Don't forget Sutton. He got his fair share for Blackburn.
