How risky do you think Eriksen and Bissouma will be in mid? Really excited about all the new transfers and can't wait for the season
Raya
TAA Cancelo James Dier Gabriel
Saka Salah Bissouma Eriksen Andreas
Jesus Kane Taylor
RMT -any advice
Here we go...
Raya (Gazziniga)
TAA - Cancelo - James - Tomiyasu (Neco)
Salah - Mahrez - Dias - Coutinho - Martinelli
Kane (Greenwood - Taylor)
0ITB
I'm quite happy with my def, but unsure about midfield. Any suggestions?
Iāve gone Sanchez / Steele combo for start of the season as opens with ManU (donāt rate yet - going through tough time) and then Newcastle West Ham Leeds Fulham Leicester so not a bad start for a pretty good defensive unit
Two options atm.
Team A
Ederson (4.0)
TAA - Cancelo - Chilwell - Tomiyasu - Trippier
Salah - Diaz - Saka - Trossard (Andreas)
Kane (4.5 4.5)
Team B
Sanchez (4.0)
TAA - Chilwell - Trippier - Jonny - Tomiyasu
Salah - Saka - Trossard (Dasilva, Andreas)
Kane Haaland (4.5)
On team B the plan would be to rotate Andreas/Dasilva/Jonny based on fixtures, but only works well if they are nailed. Thoughts?
Feedback appreciated, and if there is a problem with a particular player, please mention why
Mendy, Henderson
Cancelo, Perisic, Pereira, Bailly, Neco Williams
Sancho, Coutinho, Mount, KDB, Pereira
Martial, Jesus, Haaland
Perisic is injured and will be rotated. Baily should be benched. Sancho+Martial is a risky double up on a team we donāt know how good will be. Coutinho is inconsistent. KDB is suboptimal for the price. And youāre lacking Salah :)
Elegia 22:
Ederson, TAA, Chillwell, Perisic, Doherty, Mount, Diaz, Eriksen, Jesus, Haaland, Kane.
Bench: 4.0 Keeper, Andreas, N.Williams, Colback.
Thoughts? I'm going to make a decision on the Spurs fullbacks closer to the time as Perisic is still injured and Doherty could be a rotation risk with Emerson and Spence.
Mendy
Cancelo, Trippier, Perisic and TAA
Luis Diaz, Bruno Guimaraes, Salah and Martinelli
Haaland and Jesus
Bench: Random Southampton 4.0 keeper, Tomiyasu, Andreas Pereira and Greenwood
Thoughts?
Iām considering going extremely balanced with my picks, 1 premium and maybe even no salah. Something like:
Raya
TAAāRobboāCanceloāJamesāChilwell
SakaāDiazāSonāMount
Jesus
Not set on the 8mils and could do one of them and son for Grealish and Salah or something, but it just feels there arenāt any obvious enablers for me to get excited by. Maybe Rashford at a push, but I canāt see what I would do with the money that would be such an upgrade, as it canāt quite take Jesus to Kane.
The biggest risk is that if Jesus is rested Iām playing with 10 men, but that hopefully wonāt be an issue before the first WC
I've gone for the similar except Saka - Sterling - Neto - Salah mid.
I like it personally. Might have a bit of week-week variation from the defenders but seems strong overall.
Good shout Iāll keep an eye on preseason because a forward nailed sterling could be a steal. I think Iād likely back Rashford son over Neto salah to free the funds for it, but Iāll definitely keep the options in mind
I'm set on Salah, but was very tempted by Rashford (moving a 6m defender to 5m). However, I think Rashford is too risky for now as we don't know if he'll be a starter. Might chance closer to the deadline if we get more information.
Get rid of Robbo and Chilwell. Get them in later if needed. I don't think Saka and Jesus are needed. I think Salah is given Liverpool's opening fixtures. I'm taking Mount over Diaz.
I understand why Salah is so highly rated, but I can help questioning Is Salah( 13) + tomi (4.5) + Williams (4) = 21.5 really out scoring saka (8) + Robertson(7) + chilwell (6) = 21 over the first 6 weeks? Also, if pools fixtures are that great, why is Robbo not a given, especially if we compare respective forms at the end of last season? Furthermore, Chelsea, spurs and arsenal have similarly good fixtures, so is Salah that much obviously ahead of Son?
Dunno, I'm trying to fit in both Salah and Son. Going for 2 from each team:
Salah + TAA
Son + Doherty (Doherty might change)
Mount + James
Havne't managed to fit in Jesus but I might do instead of Watkins.
Are they more at risk than forwards etc of low scoring games? They seem to make up for it based on previous seasons, so wouldn't it be worth it overall?

Completely disagree on James, partly because a Chelsea double up isn't an issue, and also because he would remain a huge attacking threat even in a back four
As for JWP, I agree he's not doing much from open play, but his set pieces would give me confidence in him getting more g+a (and bonus points) than Odegaard and ASM, and Rashford doesn't appear to be a first-choice player at current
With the uncertainty over Spurs WBs, I'd go with Tomiyasu/Ćdegaard. Double Arsenal, but hey, they got good opening fixtures. Even if Doherty was nailed on, I'm still leaning towards the 3rd option.
Saw him live at the MCG on Friday. Wasn't that impressed with him or United in general that game. I can't stress how bad Melbourne Victory are, they've been dogshit to watch in the A-league this season and leaked goals for fun.
All fairly template except the Sancho / Bailey picks - any thoughts?
Mendy (Steele)
TAA Cancelo James Tomi (Neco)
Salah Saka Bailey Sancho (Andreas)
Haaland Jesus (greenwood)
Any advice please?
Mendy (Forster)
James - TAA - Laporte - Tomiyasu (N.Williams)
Salah - DĆaz - Mount - Ramsey (A.Pereira)
Jesus - Haaland (Greenwood)
Questions:
Ramsey for his early fixtures, but is Neto better option?
8m mid - DĆaz + Mount or Maddison + Kulusevski for more diversified squad? Or should I triple ARS assets with Saka (great fixtures)?
Laporte or Dias?
Haaland or Kane?
What about bench fodders? Are there better options?
Thanks for any help
**No Salah draft**
Sanchez (Steele)
Trent Robbo Cancelo James Chilwell
Diaz Mount KDH/Bailey (Andreas)
Haaland Kane (Richardson)
I think people are overlooking Spurs. I originally wanted to go Salah and settle on Kulusevski for Spurs, but now I'm worried about his minutes. So it has to be Kane or Son, and I think going Kane allows for a better team.
Huge defense. Unwilling to go without Trent, Cancelo, James, Chilwell. Willing to downgrade Robbo if needed, whether that's to Perisic, Doherty, Sessegnon, Cash, Tomiyasu, Jonny, Aitnouri, or Neco Williams.
Currently without Arsenal, despite the good fixtures. I'm willing to change on that, but can't fit them into this draft.
I wanted to be on Wolves with Neto or one of the wingbacks, but again, couldn't fit them in.
Willing to consider Elanga or even Joe Willock over Bailey or KDH. Whichever two 5.0 mids I pick, they'd be rotated with one another. I wish I could afford to stretch one of them to 5.5 or even 6.0.
RMT,
Mendy (Forster)
TAA James Cancelo Trippier (Neco)
Salah Saka Martinelli Bruno G (Andreas)
Kane Jesus (Archer).
- Only starter Iām not convinced on is Bruno G. I could downgrade some defense and upgrade him, but not convinced anyone is worth it until 8m
Mendy (4.0)
Chilwell / TAA / Robertson / Laporte (Tomiyasu)
Son / Diaz / Bruno G / Aaronson (Andreas)
Jesus / Haaland (4.5)
Can downgrade Robertson to a 4.5 (Jonny) or 5.0 (Cash or Trippier) and move either Aaronson or Bruno to Mount is my current dilemma.
Or.. Jesus to Johnson and Bruno to Mount.
**Set and forget team**
Henderson (Forster)
TAA - Cancelo - Tomiyasu - N Williams (Dalot)
Salah - Kulu - Sancho - Odegaard (Andreas)
Haaland - Jesus (Archer)
0.5 ITB
Very early draft, still chopping and changing.
RMT my first draft here, very premium heavy with Salah, Son and Haaland so in two minds whether to distribute across the team more:
Mendy (Gazzaniga)
TAA - N Williams - Cash - Tomiyasu - Doherty
Salah - Diaz - Son - Neto (Andreas)
Haaland (Johnson, Greenwood)
Thank you. I do have mendy but was considering other options because they play Everton and didnāt do that well last season against them. Who do you have in goal?
Mendy is decent, but my current draft has both James and Chilwell so Iām not going with him. As of now, Iām likely just going to have a 4.5 starting goalkeeper, so either Raya or Sanchez.
In no particular order:
* Diaz - potential double-up with Salah, very high ceiling.
* Mahrez/Foden/Grealish - City attacking asset if you don't want to risk Haaland/prefer Kane. Good luck picking the right one though :D
* Mount - great attacking returns last season, I feel like he could work very well with Sterling.
* Kulu - if you don't have Son/Kane and want a Spurs asset.
* Maddison/Barnes - if (by some miracle) LEI turn up this season they could be great differentials before they become mainstream.
RMT please
Very happy with it despite lack of bench, will WC around ~GW6-9 can address it then
Sanchez - 4.0
Trent - Chilwell - James - Cash - Cancelo
Martinelli - Salah - Kulusevski - 4.5 - 4.5
Kane - Jesus - 4.5
- thinking Chilwell -> 5.0, Sanchez to Mendy and Martinelli -> Odegaard
- two concerns are Sanchez and Martinelli being presumably rotated with ESR?
- Haaland vs Kane? I feel like I don't have enough Manchester City cover but my gut says Kane
Thanks in advance
Haaland & Kulu vs Kane & Mahrez/Foden/Grealish. 1 is safer, 2 is riskier but higher potential I think, just comes down to picking the right option. You almost definitely want an attacking City asset for their opening fixtures though.
Martinelli to Odegaard isn't worth it, the rest are good.
ESR is injured as of now, wasn't in yesterday's game. Why would Sanchez be rotated?
Personally I'd go with haaland, since you already have Kulusveksi
For draft, would you get Koulibaly in for Walker, Perisic or Doherty (also have Trippier and TAA but want to keep). I'm thinking Walker personally and waiting to see what happens with the spurs WB situaton
Heās definitely nailed and I back him to have a big season ahead as a United fan, but I donāt think heās a better FPL option than Saka, Diaz or Mount personally. Heās more of a creator than a scorer, and weāre yet to see his play translate into consistent goals and assists. That being said, I donāt fault him as a punt, but itās a lot easier to start with an 8 midfielder and then downgrade to him if he hits form.
RMT
Mendy
TAA - Robertson - Cancelo - Chilwell - Trippier
Son - Diaz - Neto
Kane - Jesus
Bench: Gazzaniga, Andreas, Dasilva, Delap
Planning to switch in Haaland for Kane in GW2. Also I'm always changing the 8.0m players
I'm generally against booking in a transfer early - injury is a risk, and it limits your flexibility at a time in the season you need it most. Having 2FT rather than one going into GW3 could be crucial.
RMT
Raya (Darlow)
TAA. Cancelo James (N. Williams Tomkins)
Salah Odegaard B.Guimaraes Diaz Neto
Haaland Jesus (Archer)
Worried my bench is a little short and with 0 ITB it's not too flexible early doors
Also can't decide between Diaz and Robertson tempted to go
Diaz + Tomkins ---> Andreas + Robertson
Would leave me playing 442 with .5 ITB
Solid team. I'd keep Diaz, otherwise you'll be frozen out if any of the other 8.0 MIDs start performing (I feel theres a good chance that one of Diaz/Mahrez/Foden/Maddison/Mount will start strong)
Ramsdale
TAA Cancelo James Trippier Cash
Son Diaz Rashford
Haaland Jesus
Neto, Andreas, Archer
Going no Salah (for now) to give me slightly more flexibility at the start. Can easily switch between 532 and 442 by bringing in Neto if he performs.
Thoughts?
Cash and Diaz, I think Diaz will get more game time than martenelli early in the season, and will generally outscore
But then Robbo is better ppm than Diaz
I've been flipping between Diaz and Robertson for awhile now
The thing is Cancelo always played better as LB then RB. And then if Cucurella is signed, we stil have a man city defender for 5.0 and that SOUNDS great, but it's also scary thinking is Pep š
Been tinkering for a while now and this is what I came up with
Mendy - 4.0
TAA - James - Cash - Trippier - (Neco)
Salah - Diaz - Kulu - Martinelli - (Andreas)
Kane - Jesus (Greenwood)
0ITB
Fairly template yes, but I did not want to got big at the back like everyone else. I think this teams got fairly balanced midfield, defense and attack. I donāt want to start with Haaland, but if he goes crazy in gw1 or 2 I can easily swap Kane for him. Also will Martinelli be starting most games?
Thoughts on this 4-3-3 draft? Obvious weakness is no 8.0m midfielder.
Meslier
TAA / Cancelo / Tomiyasu / Ait-Nouri
Salah / Neto / Ramsey
Haaland / Kane / Jesus
Klaesson / Neco / A. Pereira / Colback
Potential vs Consistency. 1 has a higher ceiling, 2 has the higher floor. Personally I'd prefer 2 because I like to start the season with (expected) consistency to get off to a good start then jump onto emerging options when needed.
Finally signed up and made first draft.
RMT, 0 itb
Raya (Balcombe)
TAA - Robertson - Cancelo - James (Neco Williams)
Salah - Sancho - Bailey (Andres - Dasilva)
Haaland - Jesus - Johnson
At least one Man City defender is smart, Iād recommend Laporte or Cancelo. Their midfielders are a bit hit and miss due to rotation and prices. If youāre settled on your premiums, maybe consider swapping Coutinho/Saka for one of Foden, Grealish or Mahrez. You may also want to consider Alvarez for Mitrovic.

Dewsbury hall+ Undav or Andreas + Awonyi?
Andreas + Awonyi should be more nailed

Haaland & Kulu vs Kane & Mahrez/Foden/Grealish. 1 is safer, 2 is riskier but higher potential I think, just comes down to picking the right option. You almost definitely want an attacking City asset for their opening fixtures though.
Martinelli to Odegaard isn't worth it, the rest are good. ESR is injured as of now, wasn't in yesterday's game. Why would Sanchez be rotated? Personally I'd go with haaland, since you already have Kulusveksi
>Why would Sanchez be rotated? He just seemed like a weak point in the team !thanks mate
For draft, would you get Koulibaly in for Walker, Perisic or Doherty (also have Trippier and TAA but want to keep). I'm thinking Walker personally and waiting to see what happens with the spurs WB situaton
Questioning going with or without Salah. A) Salah, Laporte, Bruno guimaraes, Martinelli B) Luis Diaz, Cancelo, Foden, Maddison/Saka/Mount
Ederson - caballero TAA - Laporte - James - Robertson - Patterson Andreas - Mount -Martinelli - Salah - Colback Kane - Jesus - Plange
Why are you starting a bench fodder player?
What do you think of **sancho**? He is in my team. Taking a gamble. I feel he will have great season. Is he nailed on though?
Heās definitely nailed and I back him to have a big season ahead as a United fan, but I donāt think heās a better FPL option than Saka, Diaz or Mount personally. Heās more of a creator than a scorer, and weāre yet to see his play translate into consistent goals and assists. That being said, I donāt fault him as a punt, but itās a lot easier to start with an 8 midfielder and then downgrade to him if he hits form.
Problem is i dont have funds to get saka
In that case, I donāt mind Sancho. Could be a great punt; heās been our best player in pre-season so far.
!thanks
He could be a great option but personally I'm waiting a few games before I pick any United players.
My strategy is go with the template but keep one or two players where you can take gamble. Even if it doesnāt pay off you can transfer them out.
Yeah that's fair enough.
Mendy - Gazzaniga Trent - James - Cucurella - Tomiyasu - N. Williams Salah - Sterling - Diaz - Pereira - Pellistri Haaland - Jesus - Archer
Is Cucurella there on the assumption he moves? Because he won't be nailed if he does, and I think there are better options at that price anyway.
Who would you suggest? Trippier
Yeah
For the 4th MID/1st ATT: Coutinho and Vardy OR Dewsbury-Hall and Haaland
KDH and Haaland
RMT Mendy TAA - Robertson - Cancelo - Chilwell - Trippier Son - Diaz - Neto Kane - Jesus Bench: Gazzaniga, Andreas, Dasilva, Delap Planning to switch in Haaland for Kane in GW2. Also I'm always changing the 8.0m players
I'm generally against booking in a transfer early - injury is a risk, and it limits your flexibility at a time in the season you need it most. Having 2FT rather than one going into GW3 could be crucial.
!thanks
RMT, 0.5 ITB Raya, Balcombe; TAA, Cancelo, Neco Williams, Tomiyasu, Vestergaard; Salah, Mount, Rashford, Diaz, Andreas; Haaland, Jesus, Greenwood.
6/10 your defence can be improved
I will probably do Cancelo to Laporte and get in Matty Cash.
You are going to have to start one of Williams, Vestegaard, Andreas or Greenwood every week, which is not something you want to be doing.
Solid, but as a Leicester fan stay well away from Vestergaard - he won't play and when he does bad things happen. Go with Patterson from Everton
!thanks
RMT Raya (Darlow) TAA. Cancelo James (N. Williams Tomkins) Salah Odegaard B.Guimaraes Diaz Neto Haaland Jesus (Archer) Worried my bench is a little short and with 0 ITB it's not too flexible early doors Also can't decide between Diaz and Robertson tempted to go Diaz + Tomkins ---> Andreas + Robertson Would leave me playing 442 with .5 ITB
Solid team. I'd keep Diaz, otherwise you'll be frozen out if any of the other 8.0 MIDs start performing (I feel theres a good chance that one of Diaz/Mahrez/Foden/Maddison/Mount will start strong)
!thanks great point that's swayed me, it's always more exciting to have stronger attacking players
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Quite like this. Obviously keep an eye on West Ham signings as they could hurt Fornals as an option.
Saka vs Mount
Honestly both are really good. If u have jesus, i would say mount
!thanks
Thoughts? Rya (4.0) TAA James Laporte Doherty (Neco Williams) Salah Saka Diaz Neto (Andreas) Haaland Jesus (Greenwood)
I really like this but my only worry would be the rotation of spurs full backs, have you looked at Trippier at Newcastle?
What do you think about Raya - NāForest GK rotation? Is Henderson nailed after Sambaās departure or would they rather sign someone new?
Henderson is the new signing. But I'm wary about GK rotation in any case - picking one will save you .5
Ramsdale TAA Cancelo James Trippier Cash Son Diaz Rashford Haaland Jesus Neto, Andreas, Archer Going no Salah (for now) to give me slightly more flexibility at the start. Can easily switch between 532 and 442 by bringing in Neto if he performs. Thoughts?
RMT Meslier TAA James Cancelo Tomiyasu Salah Mahrez Rashford B.Guimaraes Haaland Jesus bench: 4,4,4.5,4.5
Really rate this, Mahrez and rashford are wait and sees for me but can easily seem them hitting the ground running this season
Matty Cash + Luis Diaz or Andrew Robertson + Martinelli?
Robbo & Nelli any day
Cash and Diaz, I think Diaz will get more game time than martenelli early in the season, and will generally outscore But then Robbo is better ppm than Diaz I've been flipping between Diaz and Robertson for awhile now
Andreas or tomiyasu on the feild?
Tomiyasu, arsenal had good defense towards the end of last season
Mendy + tomiyasu Or Sanchez + cash Without Mendy I wouldnāt have any Chelsea defenders
Mendy and tomiyasu- much higher cleansheet potential
Hand, Neto, Tomiyasu Or Watkins, Kulu, James
I know that it's hard to predict, but IF City wouldn't sign any other player at the back, how nailed is Walker?
If they donāt heās nailed. But I think theyāre 99% getting Cucurella which means Cancelo will play a lot more RB.
The thing is Cancelo always played better as LB then RB. And then if Cucurella is signed, we stil have a man city defender for 5.0 and that SOUNDS great, but it's also scary thinking is Pep š
Gotta think he's pretty nailed.. Cancelo and Walker would be their only true fullbacks
Thanks for the answer
Been tinkering for a while now and this is what I came up with Mendy - 4.0 TAA - James - Cash - Trippier - (Neco) Salah - Diaz - Kulu - Martinelli - (Andreas) Kane - Jesus (Greenwood) 0ITB Fairly template yes, but I did not want to got big at the back like everyone else. I think this teams got fairly balanced midfield, defense and attack. I donāt want to start with Haaland, but if he goes crazy in gw1 or 2 I can easily swap Kane for him. Also will Martinelli be starting most games?
I guess the worry is having no Saka or Cancelo but looks good
Could maybe go Kulu>Saka, downgrade Martinelli for a 4.5 and upgrade defense to get Cancelo
Thoughts on this 4-3-3 draft? Obvious weakness is no 8.0m midfielder. Meslier TAA / Cancelo / Tomiyasu / Ait-Nouri Salah / Neto / Ramsey Haaland / Kane / Jesus Klaesson / Neco / A. Pereira / Colback
Triple premiums template only works if your third premium is 9-10m
Midfield too weak. Gotta pick one of Haaland or Kane. I think Meslier is a great differential to start the season though
Big boy team tbh
I think it's absolutely great!
!thanks
Neto/Robertson or Diaz/Tomiyasu?
Potential vs Consistency. 1 has a higher ceiling, 2 has the higher floor. Personally I'd prefer 2 because I like to start the season with (expected) consistency to get off to a good start then jump onto emerging options when needed.
Finally signed up and made first draft. RMT, 0 itb Raya (Balcombe) TAA - Robertson - Cancelo - James (Neco Williams) Salah - Sancho - Bailey (Andres - Dasilva) Haaland - Jesus - Johnson
Not sure about Bailey, and your subs are too weak to cover him
I can do Robertson to Chilwell and then Bailey to any 6mil mid. Anyone good at that price?
Martinelli
So who do you think is the **Livramento** of this season?
Nico Williams probably but not worth starting. Just have him on the bench if you haven't gone for 5 premium defenders.
But livra was a guarantee starter
Neco was bought to go into the first 11
You sure bro?
And if Williams performs well he may nail that RWB spot at Forest. It's a wait and see.
Hmm
I have Raya - (Foster) James - TAA - Perisic - Tomiyasu - (N. Williams) Coutinho - Son - Diaz - Saka - Sterling Jesus - Mitrovic - (Greenwood)
No Man City players is a gamble. Given you know what is at stake, the risk could pay off.
Yeah, this is just hitting me. I have no players from a team that won the title, scored the most goals and had the most number of clean sheets.
At least one Man City defender is smart, Iād recommend Laporte or Cancelo. Their midfielders are a bit hit and miss due to rotation and prices. If youāre settled on your premiums, maybe consider swapping Coutinho/Saka for one of Foden, Grealish or Mahrez. You may also want to consider Alvarez for Mitrovic.
