The gradual relaunch of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) 2023/24 begins as player prices are revealed on Monday.

Elon Musk might be doing his utmost to ruin the fun but fear not, you won’t need access to Twitter – or even leave this site to watch YouTube – to find out how much Erling Haaland or anyone else costs.

That’s because you can catch all of the price reveals on this regularly updated page as the day progresses.

Hit refresh for the latest updates from 1pm BST.

Any price exclusives sent via email or mobile notification will also be documented on this page.

Key Updates
The Great and The Good: FPL transfers, rank, template + more 21
Monday’s schedule
  • 1pm BST: A live stream in which 20 player prices are released – two every three minutes
  • 2pm BST: Premier League clubs will be disclosing more FPL prices for their own players from this point

LIVE UPDATES

13:00 – Martin Odegaard (£8.5m) and Bruno Fernandes (£8.5m)

A bit of a shock straight away as Bruno Fernandes has been lowered to his cheapest starting price since he was first added to the game midway through 2019/20.

The Portuguese midfielder had plummeted from £12.0m to £10.0m a year ago but FPL have dropped him by another £1.5m.

Martin Odegaard rises as expected, having finished as the second-highest-scoring Fantasy midfielder of 2022/23.

13:03 – Kaoru Mitoma (£6.5m) and Ollie Watkins (£8.0m)
FPL 2023/24 player prices revealed: Live updates 1

A rise for Doctor Dribble but not perhaps as high as we would have expected.

Kaoru Mitoma has climbed by £1.5m following his breakthrough campaign in which he contributed seven goals and nine assists.

Ollie Watkins has risen by half a million: 19 of his 23 attacking returns arrived after Unai Emery was appointed in Gameweek 15.

13:06 – Carlton Morris (£5.5m) and Iliman Ndiaye (£5.5m)

Fairly cheap starting prices for the main striking options from newly promoted Luton Town and Sheffield United.

We witnessed £6.0m and £6.5m price tags from Championship forwards in previous years but more modest goal tallies from Morris and Ndiaye last season perhaps explain the £5.5m cost.

13:09 – Justin Kluivert (£5.0m) and Christopher Nkunku (£7.5m)

There’s a running theme here of players coming into the game cheaper than what we might have anticipated.

Christopher Nkunku is made a forward, while new Cherries winger Justin Kluivert is a midfielder.

13:11 – Bryan Mbeumo (£6.5m) and Eberechi Eze (£6.5m)

Our first positional change of the season as Bryan Mbeumo has reverted back to being a midfielder, having spent last season as a forward.

Mbeumo is potentially on penalties at Brentford for the first half of 2022/23, having deputised for Toney from 12 yards twice before in the past.

Eberechi Eze‘s strong end to the season, in which he contributed six goals and two assists in 10 games under Roy Hodgson, sees him jump by a million.

13:14 – Bernd Leno (£4.5m) and Jordan Pickford (£4.5m)

These two save-making goalkeepers remain at £4.5m; they only trailed David Raya for stops in 2022/23.

13:17 – Lucas Paqueta (£6.0m) and Kieran Trippier (£6.5m)

The inevitable price rise for Kieran Trippier, following his 198-point season in which he finished well clear of any other FPL defender.

West Ham’s Lucas Paqueta holds firm at £6.0m.

13:19 – Son Heung-min (£9.0m) and Jose Sa (£5.0m)

A major drop for Son Heung-min, who falls £3.0m from last summer’s inflated price.

Not since 2018/19 have we had the South Korea international at a cheaper cost.

There’ll be few takers in Jose Sa, who could easily have dropped by half a million.

He did quietly finish as FPL’s fifth-highest-scoring goalkeeper, however, having banked 11 clean sheets.

13:21 – Morgan Gibbs-White (£6.0m) and Manuel Benson (£5.5m)

A slight rise for Morgan Gibbs-White, after he finished 2022/23 with eight attacking returns in his final seven games.

He supplied 12 assists in all, a total that only three other players beat.

Burnley winger Manuel Benson comes in as a £5.5m midfielder but behind the exciting attacking returns is an inconsistency of starts.

13:24 – Erling Haaland (£14.0m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.5m)

A whopping £2.5m rise for the free-scoring Norwegian – perhaps the cheaper-than-expected listings above have been made with this in mind.

Not since the days of Robin van Persie has anyone been priced up at £14.0m, a figure that Mohamed Salah has never even been listed at despite all of his record-busting.

Speaking of the Egyptian, he actually drops half a million to £12.5m.

Salah racked up 32 attacking returns in the season just gone but his total of 239 points was 26 short of what it was in 2021/22 and a full 64 behind his triple-century in 2017/18.

14:00 – FOUR MORE LUTON TOWN PLAYERS PRICED UP

Have we got a £4.0m starting defender already?

Amari’i Bell started 46 of Luton’s 49 league and play-off matches, bagging one goal and one assist.

He finished the season as a left-sided centre-back but was playing in Alfie Doughty’s wing-back position for a while.

This could mean of one three things: a (much smaller-scale) Lundstram-style oversight, a complete lack of faith in Luton’s defence from FPL Towers or a lowering of prices among defenders in 2023/24.

Gabriel Osho, the right-sided centre-half, being priced up at £4.5m adds to the mystery.

Luton’s less prolific forward, Elijah Adebayo, comes in at £5.0m, as does central midfielder Jordan Clark.

15:00 – SHEFFIELD UNITED NEXT UP

We’re seemingly on an hourly frequency for the reveals now, with Sheffield United following fellow promoted club Luton in releasing four player prices of their own.

There’ll be few takers from this quartet, in all likelihood, but it’s worth pointing out Anel Ahmedhodzic‘s goalscoring record from centre-half: he chipped in with six goals in just 32 Championship starts last season. That was more than he’d scored in his entire career before that.

Regular starts likely won’t be guaranteed for the set-piece-taking Oliver Norwood should Paul Heckingbottom dip into the transfer market, while the same may well be true for Oliver McBurnie up top. McBurnie did supply 13 goals last season.

Sander Berge, playing the right-sided ‘Lundstram’ central midfield role but without the £4.0m defender listing, comes in at £5.0m.

16:00 – BURNLEY THE LAST OF THE PROMOTED TRIO

Two midfielders who hit a combined 27 attacking returns last season, the corner-taking Josh Brownhill and winger Anass Zaroury, are both listed at £5.0m.

Burnley boasted the best defence in the Championship but, as is tradition now, you rarely get a newly promoted goalkeeper listed at more than £4.5m – and that’s exactly what Clarets custodian Ari Muric enters the game at.

Connor Roberts is a potentially interesting prospect. The right-back racked up four goals and six assists in 2022/23, the City-style inverted full-back system being tweaked after Christmas to allow him to get forward more.

17:00 – TRENT RISES TO £8.0m

Having been reinvented as a glorified central midfielder (inverted full-back, if you will) in Jurgen Klopp’s 3-2-2-3 set-up, Trent Alexander-Arnold has staved off the threat of a position change – but he has been handed his highest-ever starting price.

That’s despite posting his lowest FPL points total since 2017/18 in the season just gone.

But having collected eight attacking returns in 10 starts in this new role, Alexander-Arnold has clearly spooked the FPL price-makers into reflecting the extra attacking license into his starting price.

While Andrew Robertsonhis own goal threat damaged by the new set-up – drops back to £6.5m, there are some intriguing cut-price options further forward.

Alexis Mac Allister, set to lose penalty-taking duties but likely to be deployed as one of Klopp’s two 8/10s in this new shape, comes in at just £6.0m.

That’s about as low as we could have expected but perhaps also a fair reflection of the fact that he scored only four non-penalty goals in 2022/23.

Darwin Nunez meanwhile has the ignominy of a mid-price forward listing, having fallen to £7.5m following last season’s disappointing nine-goal campaign.

Shooting more often than even Erling Haaland last season, he’ll be a steal if he can nail down a start and begin to put those chances away – but those are two big ifs.

18:00 – NO NEW PRICES

That might be us done for the day, as there have been no new prices released at 18:00 BST.

19:00 – MITROVIC AND ANDREAS RISE
FPL 2023/24 player prices revealed: Live updates 5

We are not done, as it turns out – will this go on all night…?

One of the more predictable sets of prices of the day sees Andreas Pereira and Aleksandar Mitrovic rise to £5.5m and £7.5m respectively, following their mostly successful 2022/23 campaigns.

Mitrovic hit 14 goals in just 24 appearances last season, a tally that could have been even more impressive had he not missed four spot-kicks.

The corner-taking Pereira’s tally of 14 attacking returns meanwhile marked him out as the stand-out £4.5m midfield option by a country mile.

Joining the ranks of the £5.5m midfielders, he may well now be a Fantasy afterthought for much of the upcoming season.

Defensive pair Kenny Tete and Tim Ream stay at £4.5m, where there’ll be few takers.

20:00 – JOHNSON BECOMES A MIDFIELDER
FPL 2023/24 player prices revealed: Live updates 6

As raised as a possibility in our article last month, Brennan Johnson has been reclassified as a midfielder after his role changed slightly in Steve Cooper’s set-up.

Whether playing in a 4-3-3 or a 3-4-2-1, the two systems Cooper turned to in Forest’s successful fight against the drop, Johnson was increasingly playing a supporting role to central striker Taiwo Awoniyi.

Johnson appears to have lost penalty-taking duties to the identically priced Morgan Gibbs-White, however, and you’d surely plump for the latter not just because of the spot-kicks but also due to the more guaranteed minutes.

A late-season flurry of goals has seen forward Awoniyi and midfielder Danilo rise to £6.5m and £5.5m respectively, the latter having initially been a £4.5m option upon his January arrival.

Serge Aurier remains a £4.5m defender.

20:30 – NO MORE PRICES TODAY

Confirmation that we’re done for the day, with the first batch of 44 players now priced up – from a £14.0m forward to a £4.0m playing defender.

    4 Blades out. But none are 4.0m, so meh

    1. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah. Def avoiding them.

    2. Conners
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I made the point on a thread a few weeks ago, that all defenders from promoted sides should start at 4.0m.

      Unless we get an anomaly like Lundstram, almost no-one will go near Luton/Sheffield/Burnley defenders at 4.5m if you can get someone like Guehi/Pinnock/Dunk for the same cost.

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        The prices might not appeal in pre-season, but if say Burnley turn out to have a Burnley-like defence, we'll jump onto their bandwagons.

      2. Uncle Baby Billy

        2 years, 5 months ago

        I'm in Germany, couple of miles from the Austrian border, and I've been watching Szoboszlai for a couple of years now. His best position for me is as an attacking midfielder, somewhere slightly further forward than an '8' without being a true '10'... the Italians will have a word for it but I can't be arsed looking. Point is, though, the further advanced he is the more he negates Gasp's apparent transition to a false nine. I don't see how it works. He (Szoboszlai) will score and assist aplenty if he does line up in an advanced role, big if though.

        Full disclosure: Klopp knows a bit more about football and footballers than me - he probably has a plan.

        1. Uncle Baby Billy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Aye, totally Donald Ducked that one up... should have been in reply to Brocklanders one post below.

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

      Yeah, that's true. They walked the league to be fair, so I might've underestimated their prospects compared to the other two promoted teams.

    4. MosF94
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      4.5 for a defender with 6 league goals last season (Ahmedhodzic) is tempting value. And Ndiaye is quality, more a shadow striker really but 5.5 is still a pretty generous price there. Berge at 5.0 depends on whether he mostly plays deeper or in behind Ndiaye and McBurnie (5.5, was decent last season but will likely play fewer minutes than his strike partner and is less suited to the step up to PL football), which is difficult to say at present. Norwood at 5.0 might take our penalties but almost zero goal or assist threat from open play. Doubt there'll be anyone of interest outside of these players

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Ahmedhodzic looks interesting. I'd want to see how they start, but I'd be up for getting him in on an early transfer if form and fixtures look good. I just wouldn't want any 4.5 defender from a promoted team in my GW1 squad.
        Some other PL club are sniffing around Ndiaye - forget which one.

  2. BrockLanders
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Be interesting if Szoboszlai is £7.5m. Could be a fantastic alternative to Salah..

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I think he will be, with Mac A at 7.0. He'd be a better pick than your Diaz, Jota and Nunez and Gakpo as you'd expect him to get big minutes.

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Hoping for 6.5m for Mac Allister. Without penalties in his locker I don't think he's worth more than Eze, Mbeumo and Mitoma.

        1. 2001: A Space Origi
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Happy at only 6 then?

          1. I Member
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Very much so. I don't know if he'll make my GW1 team or not but I'm interested.

    2. Conners
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I think I'm happy to start the season with only Trent until we see how the land lies with that new look Liverpool midfield.

      I'll pick up a mid on 1st WC.

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Dunno yet, he might just be a bit of an AA, occasional assist type, who makes those in front of him better FPL options. Liverpool look a bit tricky to pick from initially. Interested in Jota, maybe Diaz, but may not start with any of them

  3. GREEN IS GOOD
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Are people preferring Nkunku over Watkins because of fixtures?

    I'm not sure any Chelsea player is worth the risk right now.

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah the fixtures are great but also because Nkunku is a very good footballer.

      1. x.jim.x
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Chelsea have signed tons of players who were considered "very good footballers" in recent years only for them to flop.

        1. I Member
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          The past isn't always the best indicator of the future.

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Superior player, but more of a risk taking anyone from Chelsea. Not sure on either yet myself

    3. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      One of them will be my 2nd striker. Need the pre-season games to decide.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        There is also significant price difference to consider. Jesus is still a possibility also.

        1. I Member
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Between who? Nkunku is 0.5 cheaper than Watkins.

  4. sirmorbach
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    After the prices, how do you feel about Salah?

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      With a lot of the prices being a tad under what many expected, it does make a Haaland-Salah double just about do-able. But not for me - I'll spread the Salah savings more widely.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Haaland at 14 million is being over compensated.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not ideal GW 1-6 fixtures and maybe only required for GW2 captaincy, might not start with him.

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Need some more prices before I start properly tinkering to see how viable 2 premiums is, but most likely he's still getting squeezed out by a cluster of 8-10m mids

    4. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I don't think I am planning to get him now. I will probably prefer Kane over him. However, it is worth considering to have route to get him. Two mids (9+9.5) for example. With Kane he would be the

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        ...the "cash cow".

    5. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Cheaper than I expected, but Gakpo might be the better option especially if classed as a striker.

    6. I Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Not considering him. My mind is set on having Haaland as my only premium and using the rest of my budget on triple Arsenal, Bruno/Rashford, and TAA.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Something like that could be the way to go, but double Arsenal and Bruno + Rashford and Son if in form and no TAA might work as well. 6.5 mids are also interesting. Looks like many would want to play 1-8-1 😉

  5. Andy_Social
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Burnley out. Brownhill and Zaroury 5.0 mids. GK and a def at 4.5.

  6. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    This pricing feels like another FPL cop out. Expect Fanteam to have a much better price list, just like last season.

    Why is it a cop out?
    Because although they raised Harlands price, they kept others low to compensate. Basically they want everyone to be able to afford a decent team. Heaven forbid anyone has to make difficult decisions.

    1. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      You don't keep up engagement by making the game challenging - been saying that all summer and there's a fair few people on here to need to realise the PL don't care what the 1% of its userbase who treat the game like or death think about it.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        That is true but unfortunate for us .5%

      2. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I wonder if FPL could set up a separate sub-game with identical rules but different (more expensive) pricing.

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Pro Fpl 😉 They could, but it would be far too similar. So unfortunately no 🙁

  7. Baines on Toast...
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Haaland at 14 is the best decision they have made in years on pricing. Finally they go for something more challenging.

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I don't think 14 is challenging if there are a lot of bargains elsewhere.

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I agree. He'll be 99% owned. He needed to be at least 15m for people to ask the question.

        1. Baps Hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          16 I believe. And his ownership would still be over 65%

        2. Deulofail
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          You think only 1/100 are maverick renegades!? 😮

          And people with multiple teams will have more than 1% without Haaland, I'd have thought!

  8. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I wont have Haaland Salah or kane
    full 9m mid range and TAA, time to play something after 111 years

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      There was a regular poster from India who persisted in a 'no-Salah, no Bruno' policy for a couple of years. Brave fella - got absolutely wiped out. Doesn't come here no more.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        They had even their own mini league 😉

        1. Galza
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          I remember that.
          They called it the No BS league 😆

    2. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Captaincy is the only issue. Getting it right when MCI has home game may be simply too challenging.

    3. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah right 😆

    4. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      A lot of bargains in midfield for cheaper than 9m

    5. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years

      You might do alright in the Second Chance after wildcarding them all in after Xmas, at least.

    6. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years

      Setup a no-Haaland league? Or no captaincy league?

    Nkunku is an anagram of Kun Kun. Avoid him at your peril 😉

        Lovely. Looking forward to weeks and weeks of moving the same handful of players in and out.

        Bold but much needed move on Haaland. Should make things interesting.

        All aboard the Bruno train, can't wait for it to back-fire

    Can we have a discussion about the idea of template - template breaking.

    There seems to be this idea that a strong template is avoidable but I think in todays environment that by GW7-8 there will always be a very strong template due to group think.

    With so many forums, content creators and analytical tools there’s a natural convergence to a very small subset of players.

    The way to avoid this is not to do with prices, it would be to do the one thing none of us here would want - and that’s to cut down on all the fpl content.

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Ironically, you'll probably find the most ardent anti-content folks right here

      1. The Mentaculus
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Or, you know, just pick a non-template team? Its a hell of a swingy game to play but I enjoy it

        1. Runnerboy31
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Arguably a strong template is better for a thinking player. You are working with more knowledge as you essentially know much more about who your rivals are going to pick - so you can more confidently predict if you are going different or playing it safe.

          1. Deulofail
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            I think it's irrelevant for a thinking player. Relevant more for non-thinking players who need an "other" to play against to sway their decision-making. 😉

          2. The Mentaculus
            • 4 Years
            2 years, 5 months ago

            Yep, I'd agree with that. I think there's usually only maybe 2 players that are actually essential at any one time - Haaland, and someone on a super hot streak like Rashford post-WC. Most of the time I feel like I can spot at least 1 or 2 template picks that I don't think are optimal, and then there's usually a few close-cut alternatives for all those in between. Might also see more differentiation with fewer DGWs this season

    2. Deulofail

      Are you suggesting that Elon Musk buys YouTube then?

  15. Zimo

    Trent is 8m

    1. Zimo
      • 7 Years

      Still def

    2. Bobby Digital

      Rly?

  16. Berkshire Hafaway-Line

    TAA is 8.0

    1. Berkshire Hafaway-Line
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Robb 6.5 Mac 6.0

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        And Nunez a 7.5 fed

      2. 15th Time Lucky
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        That Robbo price sounded very underpriced at first thought, but remembering how little he contributed when TAA went inverted, I think he's probably overpriced.

        Very formation dependent for him.

    2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No way am I paying 8. Nobody will own him

      1. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Everyone back on Salah train then?

        1. fplgaruda
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          He's on regression

      2. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Oh plenty will, but I'm out.

      3. 2001: A Space Origi
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I bet he gets over 30% ownership after first 6 weeks. He played in midfield role for last 9 or so Liverpool games.

        In those last 9 weeks he averaged 6 PPG , if that is not form and showing the best way to exploit his talents.

        The only other midfielder to average 6+ PPG was Salah!

        KDB, Odegaard and Rashford nearly averaged 6 PPG, and I think they will all be over £8.0M...and gets 4 points for clean sheets, hard to see past this choice IMO

    3. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Think that price damages Salah in particular as a pick.

  17. Santi sensei

    Now that's interesting

  18. Tonyawesome69
    • 6 Years

    TAA 8.0m def, probably my GW2 captain and go without Salah

    1. Eyes of Blue
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      My current thinking also.

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      If playing the inverted role / formation going into next season could be great, if back to 4 ATB it's a massive no

  19. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 4 Years

    Guess who's back?

    1. chocolove
      • 15 Years

      Laernu?

    2. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$

      Good. Always liked that board game.

  20. I Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Wasn't expecting Trent to go up to 8m. I like that. Don't think he's essential at that price.

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      At what price would he *definitely* not be essential then, 9.0?

    2. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      So much will come down to whether Liverpool sort their disgraceful defensive form this season. Based on last year I would have thought 7.5 … 8 seems a bit much …. But of course if Pool do a 180 on their defence he’ll prob look good for the money.

  21. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Price of Szlobo will be interesting

  22. FPL Virgin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    £8m for TAA is a joke. He was poor for the majority of last season and should of been reduced down to £7m.

    Mark has clearly been on the bat phone in his shed to FPL towers. It's not fair that he has so much influence over these things. 😡

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      People buying him at 7.7 at the end of the season. Consistently popular choice, even at high prices, and people were calling for him to be 8.0-9.0 before last season. I think Mark was right to pull rank on this decision.

    2. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Are we seeing FPLTowers squeezing the toothpaste tube at both ends? Cheap mids and expensive defenders and forwards?

      1. Deulofail
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        They can stay away from my tube, thank you very much. No more sleepovers with FPL powers-that-be (destroying my tube).

    3. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Lol

    4. fplgaruda
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Hahaha.

    5. I Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Think it's good for the game. No way should he have gone down to 7m. His ownership would be ridiculous.

    6. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      His price is a paradox.

      8M is the same as admitting he is a midfielder, yet FPL kept him as a defender.

    7. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      So don't get him then? I don't think I will initially

  23. g40steve
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    LOL Gerrard sold out 🙂

    1. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Really embarrassing for him.

    2. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Didn't know he was a Muslim Chelsea player

    3. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Nobody was interested in Gerrard as manager in the UK.

      £20m for a seasons work yes please

    4. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 10 Years

      Unemployment or millions of pounds a year - a tough one.

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Al Ettifaq off you go StevieG.
        But is that one of the clubs funded by the Saudi Sovereign Fund? Not sure the big players are going to that one.

    5. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Phew! Seeing him linked with Leeds was really scary!

  24. I Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I really like the look of Mac Allister at 6.0m. So many midfield options.

    1. fplgaruda
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      We need 1 8 2 formation. Lol.

      1. Baps Hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        I mentioned 1-8-1 earlier today 😉 But feel free to copy or "great minds..."

    2. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Just 2m more for Mac Allister with 3 points more for clean sheets, though, aka Trent!

      1. Zimo
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        2.5 technically since defenders go down to 4m and mids only till 4.5m

        1. Deulofail
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          This is a viewpoint I typically tend to adopt to help understand prices and value, but technically (aka actually, according to the facts), he is 2.0 more. 😛

      2. I Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        It isn't a case of one or the other though.

        1. Deulofail
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          True, but I think comparatively, Trent seems superior value (yet still too expensive), unless Mac Allister is going to be a bigger attacking threat than I'm imagining (which is possible). And in general, you'll want to be matching or bettering Trent's value with each player in your team.

          Still, at 1.5m above the minimum, you could argue that Mac Allister is great value. I'm just not convinced right now.

    3. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He'll be Liverpool's FPL equivalent of Xhaka

      1. I Member
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Xhaka was excellent value last season.

  25. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Nunez looks the days bargain, but not raised an eyebrow on here.

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Gapko might come in as a midfielder again

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah could be. Im really liking that Nunez price. Firmino gone, a better Liverpool midfield to create more chances, can only improve on his shooting. Whole team will likely be more confident this season. 7.5 seems ridiculous.

        1. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Gakpo has been starting over Nunez up top though

        2. Andy_Social
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          "can only improve on his shooting."
          Ever heard of Chelsea?

    2. 1justlookin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He's only a bargain if he starts

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Potentially a bargain, with the emphasis very much on potential. I haven't written him off entirely but clearly he is still a work in progress and also needs to nail down his spot

    4. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He’s simply not good enough to be a regular starter

  26. Zimo
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Eze is on pens yes?

    1. Brimble82
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      If Zaha leaves as expected.

  27. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Nunez at 7.5m is kind of insane.

    If he nails a starting striker spot down he's an even bigger bargain than Bruno with the numbers he puts up.

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Will have to wait for a few injuries for him to be nailed though

    2. I Must Break You
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      If...

  28. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Brownhill at 5.0m is also a steal. He was one fo the best midfielders in the Championship. I expected 6m or 5.5m. At 5.0m he will very likely be my 5th mid.

    1. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Last time in the premier league though he was 4.5 and played like one.

      1. Deulofail
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        That's the thing. A steal at 4.5m, but only because you don't want him in your XI. Paying 0.5 more means you're obliged to play him so you aren't wasting money, but there are surely going to be combinations for your XI that score more without him. Similar thing for Xhaka last year. I don't think he was great value because he didn't score many points, while there were ways to get much more points without him.

        1. Twelve years a slave
          • 15 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          This is the key point. Anytime you have to actually start him then you have gone wrong somewhere.
          It is a waste of half a Million

      2. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Different manager and setup though.

    2. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No he won't

  29. Smurf

    Last season there was a “new” season ticker option in the members area but I'm not seeing the option to select that now and I’m just provided with the old one, which is to be frank, a joke for use on a mobile. Anyone know what I’m missing to get the update version?

    It’s baffling that in 2023 this site is still so poor, relatively, for use on mobile.

    1. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      They took it offline so they could work on the re-release of the beta area but not so shite. Don't know how long it will take, so they will likely not see my custom again as I probably can't check out the improvements before my membership expires (and the price therefore goes up).

      1. Smurf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks for coming back to me on this. Agree with you regarding membership, it’s getting harder and harder to justify continuing to renew with the lack of progress the site has had. Feels like this “new members area” has been “on the way” for a few years now.

        The season ticker is one of the few small threads that me tied to this site, but if that can’t even be done simply to a decent standard there is really no point, especially when competitors don’t have such a hard time providing a user friendly ticker.

        It seems like Chelsea have a curse when it comes 2 expensive forward recently, Lukaku, Werner Haverty kinda and now Nkunku could be the next 1
