Our next Members article looking at the idea of “value” sees Forwards come under the microscope. With a fresh revision of players last weekend in light of factors such as transfers and pre-season tactics, we’ve tweaked the Projected totals to give you an up-to-date reflection on our thinking. While many of our top ten value forwards are lower-priced options that perhaps may be more suited to rotation, the kind opening prices afforded to the likes of Luis Suarez and Peter Odemwingie propels a couple of FPL big-hitters firmly into our thoughts.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    If Enqrique does join, and Alex leaves (I don't see it).

    I won't be able to look past Enrique, Luiz and Kompany as my main 3 defenders.

      Yup, those 3 plus 2 cheapies and your sorted in defence as you'd likely play those 3 everyweek. Could make my dream strike force possible 🙂

    RVP rooney suarez

    second team is most balanced but was looking at points and the midfield and attack score way more than defense so surely the 3rd team would score the most points?

      yeah the 1st team is too imbalanced defence > forwards

      Liking the Rooney-RVP-Suarez strikeforce. The 2nd team looks the most balanced but I'd prefer Malouda or Silva over VDV given fixtures of the dutch fella

      there's a reason why he costs that much AP, have a little faith. i wanted us to sign him two summers ago and afellay last summer before world cup. think of how much less afellay would have costed then compared to young and for much more quality. and well sneijder, i guess only jose appreciated him and knew his true value early enough. i'm surprised we renewed carrick's contract tbh.

    RMT anyone?! Anticipation is building now! I'm thinking I need a big midfielder like D Silva but finding it very hard to lose funds elsewhere, seems it's important to have at least 2 big hitters this year with the vice captain rule coming in, could be the difference maker!

          I wouldnt want to be planning transfers like that. What if someone under 2% ownership scores a hat trick firstly you'll want him and if you want Chelsea cover then you'll have to take a hit. If you dont get him, youll miss out on loads of value which could come in handy at the end of the season, or youll be without chelsea cover.

    Forwards – RVP is essential no matter what the fixtures. I fancy
    Drogba to get the nod ahead of Torres in the first two games, and
    Drogba had a great start to last season when things were going his way. I expect Torres to be in the against Norwich so I'll do Drogs to Suarez GW3.

      I'd like to have him if I had the cash - only saving grace is that I'm not sure how bonus points will pan out yet.

          My philosophy has alway been 'stuff the defence, I want a striker' - but I know exactly what you mean. I'm probably making the wrong decision but this way I get to have Malouda and Silva in midfield.

          And I'm pretty happy with the likes of Warnock, Hughes and Enrique at 5 - although I may consider downgrading one to a 4 and bringing in Kompany for another - possibly to leave me with Enrique, Kompany and then 3 dirt cheapos.

            I've realised from my previous seasons in this game that cheap defences at the start are very difficult to pull off and if you f*ck it up the consequences are pretty disastrous....

            That said, the striking options are outrageously good this season.

    Hi Guys,

    I would appreciate so pointers on my team.

    Given – (Ruddy)
    Looks good for rotation

    A.Cole – I am torn between Cole and Baines but I need Chelsea coverage
    Hughes – Good starter, will get some assists, for a good price
    Kompany – Obvious reasons
    O’Shea and Simpson – O’Shea will Play and be captained, Simpson is cheap and will play –**Advice welcome**

    Moses - Punt
    Taarabt – The next C.Adam…etc etc
    Silva – Class player
    N’Zogbia - Obvious reasons
    Dyer – I think Dyer is a decent sub who will play and good for rotation

    Rooney – Class, can rotate with RVP
    Ageuro – A punt as he is untested. But I don’t think I can go far wrong with the team he has behind him.
    Rodallega – not everyone favourite player, but he is the striker against the 3 promoted clubs, there has to be goals.

    I have 1 million left in the bank to either swap Rodallega of Odem when his games are more favourable, or change Silva to VDV or another top midfielder.
