This evening we roll out the final part of our series of Projections articles for the season ahead. Having already assessed the Keepers, Defenders and the Midfielders, it’s finally time to start searching for value up front.

With the aid of our freshly Projections, we’ve analysed the average points expected per player over the course of the upcoming campaign and, applying this to the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) player price list, have listed the top ten in terms of expected value per Fantasy pound for the season ahead…

If I'm looking for consistency and quality - the odd goals but more the steady accumulation of bps and racking up the cleanies...

Coloccini or STaylor?

  For 100% guaranteed starts, the very occasional goal and a few BP's - Coloccini.
  
  For 1st choice but at risk of occasional rotation, more goal threat and more chance of BP's - Saylor.

You know, sometimes it's so stupid. Someone said something a few pages back and it got me thinking.

Like how we've all got McCartney/Demel, right? Yeah he's only 4.0 and he's only going to be used for rotation and yada yada. Guys, it's West Ham.

West Ham.

Agger to City rumours are growing. It's really putting me off Lescott now. I read somewhere that Richards is injured, and given how Zabaleta has featured all pre-season, he should be a safe bet to start the opening few i reckon. Anyone else going for him?

        1 Solomon’s Song of Songs.
        
        She[a]
        
        2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth—
        for your love is more delightful than wine.
        3 Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes;
        your name is like perfume poured out.
        No wonder the young women love you!
        4 Take me away with you—let us hurry!
        Let the king bring me into his chambers.
        Friends
        
        We rejoice and delight in you[b];
        we will praise your love more than wine.
        She
        
        How right they are to adore you!
        5 Dark am I, yet lovely,
        daughters of Jerusalem,
        dark like the tents of Kedar,
        like the tent curtains of Solomon.[c]
        6 Do not stare at me because I am dark,
        because I am darkened by the sun.
        My mother’s sons were angry with me
        and made me take care of the vineyards;
        my own vineyard I had to neglect.
        7 Tell me, you whom I love,
        where you graze your flock
        and where you rest your sheep at midday.
        Why should I be like a veiled woman
        beside the flocks of your friends?

  If Dempsey leaves, then there's a space available. Although there's them 2, Davies and Rodallega all in contention for starts. Looks like rotation city to me so I don't think any of them will be viable FPL prospects, unless there are injuries.
  
  Think Vaz Te should start, although I think he plays out wide sometimes.

what are the advantages and disadvantages of using your Wild Card early or using it late?
Open Controls
- Permalink
1. IamIronMike
  13 years, 5 months ago
  WC early advantages:
  
  You can jump on players likely to rise and hopefully increase your team value in the process (even if you don't want the players rising you can get rid again before the next GW.) I maybe wrong but I'd imagine the value increases and decreases tend to be quicker earlier on in the season as more players are still playing and not as many just forgotten about or given up yet. I note that you can obviously do this late too but I don't see as much value in it then.
  
  Also you'll get to see who the early form players are (those probably rising in price) and you can get rid of any early punts that haven't worked out much more easily.
  
  Late WC advantage:
  
  You can copy a rivals team (although you'd only want to do this is you're ahead of them) also you may not think this is "Sportsman like"

  Simpson/Debuchy Coloccini Saylor Santon.
  
  Hopefully Debuchy deal will be sorted out but it's looking less likely atm as we can't agree on valuation. Simpson wants too much money and as long as we bring someone in will be on the way out as it's the last year of his contract.
  
  Coloccini 100% nailed on, Saylor best chance of goals with a slight rotation risk with Williamson. Though watch out for if we sign a new CB (Douglas/Williams) as that might change things. Santon is good going forwards but Pardew took a while to trust him and a couple of dodgy performances might lead to him being dropped quite easily.
  
  Hope that helps.

  Walcott can be so frustrating at times, and also injury prone as defenders feel they have to hit him hard to slow him down.. I'm looking at Santi Cazorla, not least because he is likely to be cheaper.

    Cazorla worth a look I agree but I'm leaving Arsenal till probably GW7 by then have an idea how there setting up. Would like to see Diaby back to fitness btw.

  This is the one question I would love an answer to. Is Walcott gonna be starting from GW1. I really think he is worth a punt. Wenger has said Podolski and Giroud will need to settle in. I think £9 mill is a fair price too.

  I think he'll be a great option at some point this season it's just getting him when he's on form. Him and Podolski should play opposite sides but with different classifications in FPL so imo Walcott is a better option.

  How does one fit Walcott, Gervinho, RVP, Arshavin, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Podolski and Giroud into 3 positions?

    great comments everyone cheers. I still really like walcott but will be very intersting to see how cazorla fits in and how much he is valued at. Surely he must be around 8.5 similar to kagawa?

Alright so going off the comments I've got the most generic team as:

Friedel / Federici
Demel / Cuellar / Williams / Hangeland / Lescott
Mata / Noble / Y. Toure / Michu / Pienaar
Rooney / Aguero / Petric

  I think mata will take a couple of GW's until he starts. looks pretty balanced though. A bit DGW light imo

Ive cracked it , I hope !!!!

Foster / Begovic
Rafael / Zabaleta / Dawson / McCartey / Tierney
Nasri / Bale / Valencia / Maloney / Kacaniklic
Aguero / Torres / Petric or Graham

2mil for Torres to Rooney transfer. Apart from the fact there is speculation regarding my 3 main defenders 😉 But it is a wait n see , will switch things around if need be. If Dawson gets captain he will be first choice so will know that before season start. Will hopefully know about City def and whether to go Zaba/Clichy/Kolarov by community shield and Rafael I'm genuinely not sure about it will need to look into it as things develop.
