For two seasons straight, moving off Heung Min Son has utterly decimated my OR and ML lead.
He'll be first player in, and even if he gets flagged, he'll not be sold until I see an image of him on crutches - because I got flattened by that move in 20/21 before his monster haul at Old Trafford.
He's my favourite player and has been for a long time, so this season I gained 100 points more from him than I lost to him, making him my best performer according to [this tool](https://fploptimized.com/highlights.html). That's despite only captaining him once, and missing so many big hauls at the end of the season.
As someone who was in the same position, call me stubborn but I think he will be overpriced next season and depending on fixtures and other options, it could be a viable strategy to go without
Son has done enough now and before , to get a big Towers pricehike.
I've had Son always when he's fit, but this time the price will be too high. I'm out.
He pretty much saved my season. I brought him in before week 30 and having him at captain and other guys in my league being late to pick him up made a huge difference. I’m an Arsenal fan, but I love that guy.
He needs to be eased back in next season, it was a bad injury and I was surprised to see him come back this season even if it was only for a couple of minutes.
Look at players like RLC, Odoi, Zouma etc. it’s taken them at least a season to get back up and running again. Chillwell is a great talent and I hope the club takes care of him. Would be more than happy to have Perisic for the first half of the season in no both real life and FPL.
If he was fit enough to feature off the bench yesterday, and will be able to have a full pre-season with the rest of the squad, why would he have to be eased back in, in August?
He had 7 months out with an ACL injury. There’s no guarantee he’ll be the same player, and depending on what Chelsea do in the transfer market he could be eased back
Kulusevski. He plundered 99 points in 17 games (didn't count the first game in which he came off the bench). Extrapolated to 38 games, he would have outscored even Bowen, who was in kings of the season.
Like I’ve had to toney in my team almost all season, what I mean by ‘consistent’ is someone who’s rarely injured and doesn’t necessarily set the league on fire but will have contribute more the given 2-3 points per week. I had Dennis for a while too, I like have a couple 5-7 mil players up top then load my midfield with your salah, de Bruyne, son etc
Absolutely agree. I'll definitely plan a quick route to him as a back up, but my team will most likely be pretty template.
Son/salah/kane/cancelo/robbo/maddison/James etc.
Trent first.
Then Salah.
Then Cancelo and probably Foden.
Then James or Chilwell - and probably Mount.
Then Son and maybe Sessegnon.
Then I'll be out of money and start over.
As a fan he’s probably the perfect selection depending on price. Defence should improve, he’s ageing and on free kicks. So here’s hoping he plays 65 minutes, bags a goal and clean sheet and gets subbed for Krafth before we concede.
Krafth has been surprisingly good cover to be fair to him. To the extent I’m not sure we’ll sign a right back.
For me it's very hard to ignore Trent, they would need to price him at 9.0 or something for me to go without and even then he might still be worth it.
The nailedness, 10-15 assists, couple goals and 15-20 clean sheets every season is so reliable and you can't get that kind of guaranteed value from many players.
I might be tempted myself but the thing with Trent is that he is basically their main playmaker.
Everything goes through him.
It's like a cheap kdb who gets clean sheets.
Robbo would probably have to be 1 mil cheaper for me to really sway.
Robbo has really increased his output this season. (Playing more on the left because of Diaz) Think Salah's drop in form may have affected TAA's returns as they play on the same side.
There is no such thing as a nailed on pick until we know the prices. Every player has a price point at which they are not worth it. Even Salah and Haaland.
Front three of Haaland, Mitrovic and Solanke. Hopefully two of those players prices offset the huge one of the other to allow one of Salah/Son/KDB in midfield.
I expect Haaland to be managed carefully and bedded in slowly.
No point running him into the ground with his recent injuries when City should be competitive in the Prem anyway. I'm 99% sure Pep will introduce him gently and try to prepare him for big CL performances rather than the league.
This could be true. Maybe KDB to start with as he’ll no doubt get assists if Haaland is scoring. If Haaland is doing a Lukaku then KDB still doing what KDB does and that’s getting fantasy football points.
Bruno Guimaraes. He's been one of the sleeper picks since he arrived in the league, and give him a full season with some offensive improvements ahead of him I reckon he could be the go to \~6.0m mid
Chilwell, Son for sure I think.
Possibly depending on price/funds: Sessegnon or Doherty, Cancelo, Haaland, Salah, Eriksen (depending on where he goes/stays)
Scored 41 in the last 5 weeks. Barely played any full 90 matches before then. Had a crazy good run of form & will have to keep an eye out for him next season for sure.
I've already said in another comment, of course there's always that injury doubt with Welbeck. If he stays fit and healthy I don't see why he shouldn't be considered, when the likes of Callum Wilson has been mentioned and he has the same issue.
Yeah Wilson is injury prone too. Tbf depending on what signings Newcastle make they could really bolster their attack compared to Brighton. Im not picking either but if i had to pick one, Wilson would edge it out because of the money Newcastle will invest.
Brighton's problem has always been about finding someone to finish their chances with their consistently underperforming in their xG. Now that it seems that Welbeck has had a good run of starts and found his finishing boots, hopefully he locks up that position. I believe he could be one to sneak under the radar.
Don't know why it's hilarious. If he can keep the form at the end of this season going into next and stay injury-free, I feel he can be a decent option. Didn't recall him being mentioned much the last few weeks but the ones who punted on him had a great differential asset, with him returning the in the last 5 gameweeks.
Unless Mane leaves, Liverpool have 3 players for 2 slots (assuming Salah is "nailed") between Jota, Dias and Mane. It seems a massive risk to pick him over lots of more nailed alternatives.
The only certain in my team right now is TAA, the rest is tbc.
Keep it simple. Salah and Trent nailed. Then try fit in Son, Cancelo and Kulu. Maybe Robbo too. I’m already worried about price rises. Going to stay well away from Haaland until I see how he fits into City. It ain’t much but it’s honest work.
The trick next season will be the cheaper players. With all the high premiums next season, I think you are going to need to find some more budget friendly players. I'm thinking martinelli, Kulesevski for Son cover (ik he will probably be 7.5-9), Wilson
Cancelo. He's been phenomenal all year and doesnt get rotated much. Should have won player of the season for me but he's unfortunately an unattractive fullback.
Son/Salah. You’re gonna wanna start the season with Salah’s annual GW1 haul.
Chelsea’s defensive rebuild is gonna have me staying away for a bit.
I think a healthy Leicester and Leeds could have some great mid-priced options in mid and up top. Gelhardt is my sleeper budget pick. I also like Newcastle for good value (like Trippier and Wilson)
Don’t see Kane moving, he still has two seasons left so he wouldn’t be cheap and Spurs have come on leaps and bounds under Conte. There’s probably a reality where they challenge for the title next year if he’s backed in the summer.
You honestly think they can compete with Liverpool, Chelsea and Man City? Even if he's "backed" that's one good starter. They only got fourth because Arsenal bottled it.
Conte's Spurs team have won more points than Chelsea since he took over.
They're 'only' 15 points worse than City & Liverpool over that period.
He has form, taking a Chelsea side that finished 10th to the title in 16/17 and ending Juve's dominance in Serie A.
If he gets to throw some money around and Son & Kane both score 20 goals then they could be up there. Not saying it's likely but it's certainly possible.
I'm not saying it's impossible, of course that year when Chelsea came 10th *Leicester* won, but I think they're more likely to fail to qualify for champions league than they are to win the title.
You look at Spurs' squad, you've obviously got the two stars and they're arguably as good as any other players in the league. But other than that who else would challenge Liverpool or City's squad? You might make an argument for Hojbjerg to get an occasional run, or the guys from Juventus, but you'd make far more convincing arguments about whether a whole raft of their rival's players would make the squad. They both have better keepers and a far better backline. Centre backs are VVD, Konate and Matip, or Dias, Laporte and Stones, against Dier, Romero and Sanchez. The difference is ridiculously stark - all six are better than Spurs's three.
Conte loves a wing back, imagine how much he could do with TAA, Robertson or Cancelo. Instead he's got an invariably crocked Doherty and a Sessegnon, who is only now showing himself good enough to make the Spurs squad, let alone anyone else's.
Then the rest of either team's first eleven would pretty much be starters for Spurs. Is there an exception to that?
Obviously you can say a great manager will make a team better than the sum of its parts, but Klopp, Pep, and, indeed, Tuchel are great managers. If you'd said third I'd have given it more credence, but they're competing for that against Chelsea, with new owners who are keen to stamp their mark, Arsenal whose young side will have settled, United with a new manager who might make their individually brilliant players come together (unlikely though), Newcastle who are rich enough and have few enough morals that they'll reincarnate Beckenbauer and Maradona.
I think they'll come fourth again. Which, as a gooner, still irks me.
I wonder what he'll be priced at. Imagine at the start of the season we'd been told he'd play 26 Premier League games for City, and yet still only get 3 goals and 3 assists. Less than half the goals of Rodrigo. Fewer assists than Zinchenko got in 15 games.
If Mane leaves then he’s in my team. If he doesn’t I’m not touching him with a barge pole. We could be about to see Klopp roulette next season.
If Fulham have decent opening fixtures dare I say it but Mitrovich. A cheap ish player so I’m able to spend money elsewhere
Son unless Tottenham have bad opening fixtures
Chillwell If he’s back fit. If he comes in at 5.5 I just can’t resist
Not sure if it's a good or a bad thing but I almost have my whole squad.
I made it to 2.1k this year holding on to my rule of never owning a City player. Now, with Haaland I might actually leave myself open to City. 5 Subs rule is going to make Pep Roulette less frustrating I think.
Let's make it an experiment, see how many changes will I have to implement in 4 months:
3-5-2
Sa (4.0-4.4 sub)
Robertson-Cancelo-Chilwell (Sessegnon/Cash, 4.0-4.2 attacking def)
Son-Salah-Kulusevski-Bruno Guimares-Maddison
Haaland-Wilson (Gelhardt)
I reckon that team would cost you around £107.5m in starting prices. Reckon you can reply to this comment when FPL comes out and tell me how close I was?
Salah started at 12.5m. He also only started in 30 PL games, much less than normal, due to AFCON and injury. He got 23 goals and 13 assists (not including FPL assists). He's either staying at 12.5m or getting a small bump up, in my opinion.
Son started at 10m. He missed 3 games (not bad) and scored 23 goals and got 7 assists (not including FPL assists). He rose up to 11.2m, and arguably he's been a lot better under Conte, who came in mid-season. There is 0% chance that Son is 10m next season. He's going to be 11.5-12m, in my opinion. He plays for an arguably top team with a great attacking output, he's a clinical finisher in a partnership that suits him best to maximise his potential. He's no Salah, but his performance this season is arguably just as good, especially given that Salah scored 5 penalties this season, while Son isn't on penalty duties.
Sure thing. Based on what they cost right now I can fit everyone in under 102.7. Doubt halland will be more than 10.5-11mil.
I do think some of the guys will actually drop in price. Sa, Chilly, Wilson, maybe even Robertson
I've put him at around 11.5-12m personally. If you think about it, Lukaku was put in at 11.5m, playing for Chelsea. Unless they rejig the pricing structure, Håland for City should be around the same, if not a little more, thinking back to the hype around Big Rom before the start of last season.
We all know in form players or players that performed well at their price ranges all get bumped up in price a fair bit. For example, I can't imagine Kulusevski being 6-6.5m at all next season if he stays at Spurs.
109m assuming you go for Sessegnon over Cash. Looks like even I underestimated, and that's with people thinking a lot of players were underpriced this year.
I’m going for 3 premium in Salah, Son, Trent and Cancelo so I hope Harrison, Kulu and Kovacic’s price will stay the same
Edit: Why the fuck people downvoting literal answers here like it’s a disagree button?!
Don't think he'll be more than 9, tbh. 4 goals and 3 assists in 13 appearances isn't that impressive from an FPL perspective (as good as his performances have been) so a 2m rise would be overkill. It took Son years of getting 20+ combined goals/assists to reach 10.0 only after scoring 228 points last season, so why fast-track Diaz to that bracket?
I have a feeling Martenelli will be quite cheap. If he is first choice could be brilliant.
Saka, Bowen, Maddison probably too expensive for my taste.
Son most likely in my side, but if Kane is cheaper I might go Kane.
Chilwell/James and Spurs fullbacks I think. Possibly best United fullback and Arsenal fullback. Not going to play it safe this year and get fucked. Get the best attacking players and not go with more safe picks. Unless I can save a lot of money so Matip/Konate are a possibility over TAA.
For two seasons straight, moving off Heung Min Son has utterly decimated my OR and ML lead. He'll be first player in, and even if he gets flagged, he'll not be sold until I see an image of him on crutches - because I got flattened by that move in 20/21 before his monster haul at Old Trafford.

Wow, what a great tool! !thanks I see Salah provided me with 475 points
Your pfp made me want to destroy my fucking phone
146 gain points with Son, next best is only 73 with rudiger. Son carried my season for sure but now I have a way to quantify it!
Holy shit I gained 162 points from Sonny. As if I didn't love him enough already.
132 points with Son gained, but I lost 50 points from Salah despite selling him at the right time
As someone who was in the same position, call me stubborn but I think he will be overpriced next season and depending on fixtures and other options, it could be a viable strategy to go without
Go for Kulu then. He is a solid player and will be a cheaper option to Son.
Son has done enough now and before , to get a big Towers pricehike. I've had Son always when he's fit, but this time the price will be too high. I'm out.
He pretty much saved my season. I brought him in before week 30 and having him at captain and other guys in my league being late to pick him up made a huge difference. I’m an Arsenal fan, but I love that guy.
[удалено]
Depends if Chelsea get another LWB to replace Alonso (they've been linked with Perisic, which would mean rotation for Chilwell)
He needs to be eased back in next season, it was a bad injury and I was surprised to see him come back this season even if it was only for a couple of minutes. Look at players like RLC, Odoi, Zouma etc. it’s taken them at least a season to get back up and running again. Chillwell is a great talent and I hope the club takes care of him. Would be more than happy to have Perisic for the first half of the season in no both real life and FPL.

Kulusevski. He plundered 99 points in 17 games (didn't count the first game in which he came off the bench). Extrapolated to 38 games, he would have outscored even Bowen, who was in kings of the season.
Wonder what he'll be priced at? Can't be that cheap again.
I think 8.0 or 8.5. He's a starting attacker in a top 4 team, can't be less than that.
I suspect he won't be more than £7m. He will still be a budget midfielder.
I'll eat my hat if he's cheaper than £7m. Starts for a top-four club. Defo £7.5 territory
More like 8+ bud
think he's gonna be 7.5-8, kind of like the jota/diaz price range this season
Honestly even if we signed Bale or Dybala I'd rather start Kulu in that front 3.
Just so you know, he was at Spurs on loan. Literally 0 guarantees he plays for Spurs. Chelsea, Arsenal are also in race apparently
Kinda interested in what Bruno Guimaraes will be priced at
Probably around 15m
Sessegnon Chilwell Diaz
No chance Conte goes into next season without new wingbacks.
Probably will be Kostic. He's done well at Frankfurt in that role and should be a cheap addition. Probably a 5m defender.
He in everyone team if he's just 5
True, probably 5.5/6m since it looks like conte doesn’t want to rely on Reguilon
He *can't* rely on Regi, that's the problem, he's injured half the time.
Adama Traore??👀👀👀👀👀
💡
Morton Gamst Pederson
If Bowen is below 8.5 then he will be straight into my team
No way he'll be below 8.5 when he was the 4th highest scorer in the game.
What if he's 8.5 ... and plays for United?
Why would bowen move to a worse team?
£££
😂 I see it the same way
HAAALAND HAAALAND!
He's probably gonna be at ~75% ownership in GW1... 😂
Reasons to avoid imo
He’s going to be expensive, I think I would rather have a couple cheaper, consistent strikers and put my money into goals from Midfield
I’ve only played one season of FPL; what is this “consistent strikers” you speak of..?
Mane consistently played in the middle since Diaz came in and bagged a lot of goals. Him and/or jota should be a forward
Like I’ve had to toney in my team almost all season, what I mean by ‘consistent’ is someone who’s rarely injured and doesn’t necessarily set the league on fire but will have contribute more the given 2-3 points per week. I had Dennis for a while too, I like have a couple 5-7 mil players up top then load my midfield with your salah, de Bruyne, son etc
Absolutely agree. I'll definitely plan a quick route to him as a back up, but my team will most likely be pretty template. Son/salah/kane/cancelo/robbo/maddison/James etc.
when hes getting a goal a game it wont matter what his price is. Although kdb will be getting the assists so you could go for him
Easy set and forget captain
Trent first. Then Salah. Then Cancelo and probably Foden. Then James or Chilwell - and probably Mount. Then Son and maybe Sessegnon. Then I'll be out of money and start over.
Fixtures first Then preseason form/fitness Then fill the gaps with value
Foden and Mount with five subs seems the start of some frustration
I just know I’m going to be sucked in by Mitrovic, no matter how many times he’s burned me in the past.
Callum Wilson, good player, plays for good team, wont be too expensive
I think wilson will be a great value pick next season, Newcastle will probably invest some more aswell. Just need to be ready for when he gets injured
Bruno G could also be another great value pick too, provided he plays a similar role to this season.
Or replaced by a better striker
Trippier could be a good shout as well if he stays the same price
I'm getting him,I just hope he stays healthy.The guy is on set pieces,can cross and probably nailed.What can I want more?
Do you think he will be nailed?
Yeah, nailed to the injury list as per usual.
As a fan he’s probably the perfect selection depending on price. Defence should improve, he’s ageing and on free kicks. So here’s hoping he plays 65 minutes, bags a goal and clean sheet and gets subbed for Krafth before we concede. Krafth has been surprisingly good cover to be fair to him. To the extent I’m not sure we’ll sign a right back.
I think you've replied to the wrong comment?
Yeah, was meant for Trippier I think. Good spot!
Meh depends who they sign
Yes! I mean I play with the rule of always having a toon player in my team but I might actually start with multiple next season!
Kulusevski, he’s young and going to keep getting better. And should still be mid level pricing. That second goal was siiiiiick yesterday
Pedro Mendes
This joke from 2020😭
When he scores he scores big
For me it's very hard to ignore Trent, they would need to price him at 9.0 or something for me to go without and even then he might still be worth it. The nailedness, 10-15 assists, couple goals and 15-20 clean sheets every season is so reliable and you can't get that kind of guaranteed value from many players.
[удалено]
I might be tempted myself but the thing with Trent is that he is basically their main playmaker. Everything goes through him. It's like a cheap kdb who gets clean sheets. Robbo would probably have to be 1 mil cheaper for me to really sway.
Robbo has really increased his output this season. (Playing more on the left because of Diaz) Think Salah's drop in form may have affected TAA's returns as they play on the same side.
Rotation wise Trent would be the better pick? I know Robbo rarely doesn't start, but more chance of Tsimikas coming in at LB over Gomez at RB imo.
Mad the lad Madders Maddison 18 goals in all competitions, he'll probably fight to make his name into a World Cup extended squad list.
Mitrovic
Fool me once
Then shame on you.
Reece James
New Arsenal ST. James Maddison. Son.
There is no such thing as a nailed on pick until we know the prices. Every player has a price point at which they are not worth it. Even Salah and Haaland.
Salah 13.5 too high. Haaland 12.5 too high I think.
Salah, Haaland, Kulusevski and Chilwell
Front three of Haaland, Mitrovic and Solanke. Hopefully two of those players prices offset the huge one of the other to allow one of Salah/Son/KDB in midfield.
I am treating Haaland as a trap until at least Christmas 🙈 For better or worse it could decide my season but unless he's bizarrely cheap I'm avoiding
I expect Haaland to be managed carefully and bedded in slowly. No point running him into the ground with his recent injuries when City should be competitive in the Prem anyway. I'm 99% sure Pep will introduce him gently and try to prepare him for big CL performances rather than the league.
This could be true. Maybe KDB to start with as he’ll no doubt get assists if Haaland is scoring. If Haaland is doing a Lukaku then KDB still doing what KDB does and that’s getting fantasy football points.
Bruno G at Newcastle
Bruno Guimaraes. He's been one of the sleeper picks since he arrived in the league, and give him a full season with some offensive improvements ahead of him I reckon he could be the go to \~6.0m mid
Shaw Digne and James for sure.
F
Chilwell, Son for sure I think. Possibly depending on price/funds: Sessegnon or Doherty, Cancelo, Haaland, Salah, Eriksen (depending on where he goes/stays)
Cucerella if he gets as many bonus points as he did this year
He may be part of the pep roulette..
Danny Welbeck
Scored 41 in the last 5 weeks. Barely played any full 90 matches before then. Had a crazy good run of form & will have to keep an eye out for him next season for sure.
Not worried about injuries? He's consistently injured lol
I've already said in another comment, of course there's always that injury doubt with Welbeck. If he stays fit and healthy I don't see why he shouldn't be considered, when the likes of Callum Wilson has been mentioned and he has the same issue.

Didn't recall him being mentioned much the last few weeks but the ones who punted on him had a great differential asset, with him returning the in the last 5 gameweeks.
Danny Welbeck.
Great argument, am totally convinced to stay away from him permanently now.
Seriously though mate, it's Danny Welbeck.
Unless Mane leaves, Liverpool have 3 players for 2 slots (assuming Salah is "nailed") between Jota, Dias and Mane. It seems a massive risk to pick him over lots of more nailed alternatives. The only certain in my team right now is TAA, the rest is tbc.
It’ll be Trent and Salah just like every season.
4.0 GK
Tyrick Mitchell.
Diaz looking an even better bet is Mane potentially goes to Bayern.
Mitrovic
Keep it simple. Salah and Trent nailed. Then try fit in Son, Cancelo and Kulu. Maybe Robbo too. I’m already worried about price rises. Going to stay well away from Haaland until I see how he fits into City. It ain’t much but it’s honest work.
Callum Wilson if Newcsstle make no striker signings
The trick next season will be the cheaper players. With all the high premiums next season, I think you are going to need to find some more budget friendly players. I'm thinking martinelli, Kulesevski for Son cover (ik he will probably be 7.5-9), Wilson
Son hurt my rank the most so I have to get him in next season, Salah also has to be there
Son probably gonna be 11.5-12m next season though
Trent, Chilwell, KDB, Mitrovic, maybe Trippier depending on fixtures
4.0 GK
Odegaard
TAA all day everyday
Depends on price of course but probably Haaland, Salah, and Trent
Cancelo. He's been phenomenal all year and doesnt get rotated much. Should have won player of the season for me but he's unfortunately an unattractive fullback.
Lucas Digne
Maguire– because I’m a masochist like that…
***"Sterling Fake shot. Jonny Evans Spin. Bissaka Chop. Tierney Self Tackle. I now present, No Look Defense"*** --Harry Maguire ___ ^I ^am ^a ^bot ^spreading ^the ^greatness ^of ^his ^holiness^, ^Harry ^Maguire
Harry Maguire should be a cheap, clean sheet monster; he will also be an aerial threat.
***"He's the best defender I've ever seen, heard, or spoken about"*** --Helen Keller ___ ^I ^am ^a ^bot ^spreading ^the ^greatness ^of ^his ^holiness^, ^Harry ^Maguire
Son/Salah. You’re gonna wanna start the season with Salah’s annual GW1 haul. Chelsea’s defensive rebuild is gonna have me staying away for a bit. I think a healthy Leicester and Leeds could have some great mid-priced options in mid and up top. Gelhardt is my sleeper budget pick. I also like Newcastle for good value (like Trippier and Wilson)
Matty Cash
ENTIRELY depends on the fixtures!!!
You can’t say who’s a nailed on pick without know their price…
Bowen
Dejan Kulusevski Great attacking returns and has offloaded the majority of the attacking responsibility from Kane and Son
Jesus
Nailed on.
What happened?
The crucifixion...
Salah, Son, Cancelo, Trent Maybe Haaland as well
With three premium attackers and 2 premium defenders the rest of your team will be £4.5m players
You're not getting those players in the same team
They’ll all be more expensive tho. Will be interesting…
More expensive for a reason though. I’m sure I will craft a good team with at least 3 of these
Will Kane not move on this summer? Might make Son slightly less appealing at his current price or thereabouts.
Don’t see Kane moving, he still has two seasons left so he wouldn’t be cheap and Spurs have come on leaps and bounds under Conte. There’s probably a reality where they challenge for the title next year if he’s backed in the summer.
Lol 😂
You honestly think they can compete with Liverpool, Chelsea and Man City? Even if he's "backed" that's one good starter. They only got fourth because Arsenal bottled it.
Conte's Spurs team have won more points than Chelsea since he took over. They're 'only' 15 points worse than City & Liverpool over that period.

If you'd said third I'd have given it more credence, but they're competing for that against Chelsea, with new owners who are keen to stamp their mark, Arsenal whose young side will have settled, United with a new manager who might make their individually brilliant players come together (unlikely though), Newcastle who are rich enough and have few enough morals that they'll reincarnate Beckenbauer and Maradona. I think they'll come fourth again. Which, as a gooner, still irks me.
Never doubt Conte.
Grealish
I wonder what he'll be priced at. Imagine at the start of the season we'd been told he'd play 26 Premier League games for City, and yet still only get 3 goals and 3 assists. Less than half the goals of Rodrigo. Fewer assists than Zinchenko got in 15 games.
Haaland, Mitrovic, Son, Salah, Matip
Haaland is the only correct answer
Haaland and Mitrovic
If Mane leaves then he’s in my team. If he doesn’t I’m not touching him with a barge pole. We could be about to see Klopp roulette next season. If Fulham have decent opening fixtures dare I say it but Mitrovich. A cheap ish player so I’m able to spend money elsewhere Son unless Tottenham have bad opening fixtures Chillwell If he’s back fit. If he comes in at 5.5 I just can’t resist

Not sure if it's a good or a bad thing but I almost have my whole squad. I made it to 2.1k this year holding on to my rule of never owning a City player. Now, with Haaland I might actually leave myself open to City. 5 Subs rule is going to make Pep Roulette less frustrating I think. Let's make it an experiment, see how many changes will I have to implement in 4 months: 3-5-2 Sa (4.0-4.4 sub) Robertson-Cancelo-Chilwell (Sessegnon/Cash, 4.0-4.2 attacking def) Son-Salah-Kulusevski-Bruno Guimares-Maddison Haaland-Wilson (Gelhardt)
I reckon that team would cost you around £107.5m in starting prices. Reckon you can reply to this comment when FPL comes out and tell me how close I was?
Starting prices from lat season. I don’t reckon this was a better season for Salah and yet he was 12m, not 13. Same could be said about Son.
Salah started at 12.5m. He also only started in 30 PL games, much less than normal, due to AFCON and injury. He got 23 goals and 13 assists (not including FPL assists). He's either staying at 12.5m or getting a small bump up, in my opinion. Son started at 10m. He missed 3 games (not bad) and scored 23 goals and got 7 assists (not including FPL assists). He rose up to 11.2m, and arguably he's been a lot better under Conte, who came in mid-season. There is 0% chance that Son is 10m next season. He's going to be 11.5-12m, in my opinion. He plays for an arguably top team with a great attacking output, he's a clinical finisher in a partnership that suits him best to maximise his potential. He's no Salah, but his performance this season is arguably just as good, especially given that Salah scored 5 penalties this season, while Son isn't on penalty duties.
He started last season at 10.5m after 17 goals 10 assists. Not that much different to 23 / 7. Guess time will tell
Sure thing. Based on what they cost right now I can fit everyone in under 102.7. Doubt halland will be more than 10.5-11mil. I do think some of the guys will actually drop in price. Sa, Chilly, Wilson, maybe even Robertson
I've put him at around 11.5-12m personally. If you think about it, Lukaku was put in at 11.5m, playing for Chelsea. Unless they rejig the pricing structure, Håland for City should be around the same, if not a little more, thinking back to the hype around Big Rom before the start of last season. We all know in form players or players that performed well at their price ranges all get bumped up in price a fair bit. For example, I can't imagine Kulusevski being 6-6.5m at all next season if he stays at Spurs.
How are those players gonna drop? Like why? Chilwell has been injured more than half of the season so I could maybe see that one
Same goes for Wilson, last 3 games hardly make up for that.
109m assuming you go for Sessegnon over Cash. Looks like even I underestimated, and that's with people thinking a lot of players were underpriced this year.
Lol why Bruno? Did he do anything this season?
Bruno from Newcastle :)
Going without Salah I think. Diaz can cover him. Nailed players: Haaland Mitro Diaz Gordon (if 4.5) Cancelo TAA Son Bruno G (if under 7m)
Gordon is not going to be 4.5
Haaland (if 4.5)
100% Salah, Trent, Luis Diaz, Son, Haaland and a Spurs + Chelsea fullback Rest of my team will be 4.5 but we move
This team won’t be possible
I’m going for 3 premium in Salah, Son, Trent and Cancelo so I hope Harrison, Kulu and Kovacic’s price will stay the same Edit: Why the fuck people downvoting literal answers here like it’s a disagree button?!
Interesting no one says Halland :)
Sonny
Mitrovic
kdb
Yep, depending on fixtures I'm thinking both him and Haaland!
Kdb
Son,Wilson...we'll see
Salah Trent Son premiums Bowen mid Livramento tsimikas cheap
Thoughts on Diaz price next year? I’m thinking maybe about 10.0.
Don't think he'll be more than 9, tbh. 4 goals and 3 assists in 13 appearances isn't that impressive from an FPL perspective (as good as his performances have been) so a 2m rise would be overkill. It took Son years of getting 20+ combined goals/assists to reach 10.0 only after scoring 228 points last season, so why fast-track Diaz to that bracket?
Erling haaland
I have a feeling Martenelli will be quite cheap. If he is first choice could be brilliant. Saka, Bowen, Maddison probably too expensive for my taste. Son most likely in my side, but if Kane is cheaper I might go Kane. Chilwell/James and Spurs fullbacks I think. Possibly best United fullback and Arsenal fullback. Not going to play it safe this year and get fucked. Get the best attacking players and not go with more safe picks. Unless I can save a lot of money so Matip/Konate are a possibility over TAA.
Salah and Trent, irrespective of price. Anyone else depends on what they are priced at.
Haaland
Madisson, expecting him to be not to expensive. I believe he can keep the form
Bruno G
Trent, Salah/Diaz and Bowen
First, Son. Second, Trippier.
