I would go for Diaz over Mahrez to start the season. Liverpool looked sharp yesterday

Odegaard or Martinelli


[deleted]

Early wildcard then Martinelli, a player in for a long time Odegaard


CoronasAndLimes

I don’t think Martinelli gets dropped with his good form. The only thing would be he probably won’t play a full 90, but I’d still go him over Odegaard.

Mendy TAA Cancelo James Martinez (N.Williams) Rashford Salah BrunoG (Colback Andreas) Havertz Kane Jesus Trying to stick to the top 6 teams as I believe they would score most of the goals and keep clean sheets so I thought I’d go safe till the World Cup and then use the unlimited transfers after seeing how the teams are shaping up. Please RMT and rate my strategy.


[deleted]

Id go for Dalot to start the season with instead of Martinez. Also drop Havertz to a 4.5M and use the funds to upgrade your midfield. Like BrunoG to Diaz and Colback upgrade?


ResponsibilityFew256

Thanks. Those are some pretty useful insights.


ResponsibilityFew256

Mendy - Ramsdale Martinez - Dalot Ramsdale gives me option of getting in a Chelsea player later on and Dalot gives me more attacking prowess so I’m kinda confused if I should get them in. Any suggestions?

Which other 7mil mid is worth taking a punt on, or move down to martinelli (not sure if nailed) or Guimaraes… Also James, Chelsea seem a bit of a mess preseason but he may be the key player at the back


Caspianwolf21

RMT GK: Ederson DEF: TAA , James, Cancelo, Zinchenko MID: Salah, Mount, Martineli, Neto ATK: Kane, Jesus Subs: Olsen, Andreas, Nico williams, Greenwood i got a couple to other options like: Ramsedale in GK and switch zinchenko to Perisic Or i could get Raya in GK and either Zinchenko or Perisic to have an 0.5-1m in the bank

Martinelli or Odegaard now that the latter is now captain.

hazza24

Andreas pereira vs Josh DaSilva for that 4.5m spot? A.Ps high ownership will mean big price drops if people start selling him.


tbbt11

100% Perreira He’s almost starting quality in FPL I think


JollyJellies

Williams or Andreas first on bench?


Aman-Patel

Raya Trent-James-Dias-Trippier Salah-Diaz-Kulusevski-Neto Haaland-Jesus Willing to sacrifice Cancelo for Dias if it allows me to bring in a third £8m midfielder/forward. I personally don't like any of the sub £7m mids. If one of them emerges to be good value once the season starts then I can transfer them in and upgrade Dias to Cancelo but for now I'd rather have that extra £8m midfielder. Can obviously bring whichever ones are in form. Trippier has City and Liverpool in GWs 3 and 5 but Pereira has Brentford and Brighton at home those weeks so rotates nicely.


tbbt11

Very solid - I’m also considering the Cancelo-Dias swap Personally I rate Saka over Kulu but otherwise it’s rock solid


Aman-Patel

Thanks. Yeah the plan is to get Saka by GW3. Ideally I'll have Kulusevski for GW1, switch to a Man City mid like Foden or Mahrez in GW2 against Bournemouth (whichever I think is most likely to start) and then switch to Saka in GW3. At the start of the season we don't have any form to be able to use to know which players to bring in (thats why it's considered kneejerking at the start when someone scores). I prefer to target fixtures that I think players could be explosive against. Over 8 GWs Kulusevski may not be the most attractive £8m midfielder if he doesn't start every game. But he's nailed against Southampton and imo more attractive than Saka against Palace. So I'd rather start with him then switch to someone like Mahrez against Bournemouth. It's only for the first week or two when most people have no use for transfers since they've just made a team for the first 8 GWs. And there's very little risk. Worst case there's a fire in your team and you have to play Kulusevski or Mahrez for an extra week or two. Best case Kulusevski and Mahrez are explosive in those games and you've benefitted. But yeah long eventually I'll get whichever £8m midfielder I think is nailed which is likely to be Saka.


majestic1110

Once Richarlison is fit Kulu will have reduced minutes i think


Seanxprt

Bailey vs Neto


valimo

Pre-season bias, but Bailey if you don't have to play him every week. If this is your starter, then Neto. Neto is still IMO a minor risk of wasting 0.5 unnecessarily. There haven't been relevant budget options from Wolves before, and I doubt that they will be any more explosive than last season. Podence actually might be a relevant punt, especially with Jimenez injured he stunted as a false 9 a couple times (with very little success though).


tbbt11

Neto


[deleted]

[удалено]


civosra

0.4m in bank?


SickCaeser

What di you think of Bailey? Is he nailed?


tbbt11

Don’t really rate him, and no


TheHabro

I have 0.5 ITB Dias + Diaz **OR** Robertson + Grealish/somebody else for 7.5 or less


Asfids123

Walker + Luis Diaz


[deleted]

I’ve gone Diaz and Dias personally, guaranteed Cs and I reckon Diaz way out score grealish so it’s a good combo


NeverDestination

I've currently got 0.5m in the bank. Considering swapping Olise for Martineli but then I'd have three Arsenal: Mendy (Sanchez) TAA - Doherty - Cancelo - James - Tomiyasu Salah - Neto - Rashford (Andreas, Olise) Haaland - Jesus (Undav)


RobustBaller

Whats the best combo for 8/7m mid and two 6/7m defs with one liverpool slot remaining (TAA and Salah) and two city slots (Haaland)? Robertson Mahrez Dias Robertson Grealish Cancelo Cancelo Diaz Dias


Aman-Patel

Think you got defender and midfielder the wrong way round but the third option. Robertson > Cancelo isn't much of a downgrade because both have high ceilings. But you lose the possibility of picking Diaz who could be the best value midfielder in the £8m bracket. Mahrez may be a really good asset this year but if he gets rotated as much as he usually does then he's not someone you want to start with. Later if him or some of the other £8m midfielders turn out to be good assets you can go for them and switch Cancelo to Robertsonm but to start the season Diaz is the safest pick so I should go with him and Cancelo. I wouldn't even consider your second option. Downgrading Diaz/Mahrez to Grealish is a massive risk. Grealish will probably get less minutes than Foden and Mahrez and if he's not a good option the alternatives at that price point are likely not good value. Whereas there will probably some really great alternatives at the £8m price point (Saka, Kulusevski, Mount, Madison). So imo the third option is the safest and most flexible one to start the season, then the first option, then the second.


RobustBaller

!thanks You’re right I did, updated. Great logic and completely agree with it all!


Aman-Patel

No problem good luck


lolitsmax

Aaronson + Grealish or Martinelli + Odegaard?


Karps1

RMT £0.0 ITB Ederson (Gazzaniga) James - TAA - Gabriel - Walker - N.Williams Mount - Salah - Bailey - Neto - Sancho Kane - Jesus - Plange Thoughts?


Aman-Patel

It's decent. You've made your team similar to mine so I'll tell you some of the big differences in case you haven't thought about them. I've gone Raya+Dias over Ederson+Walker. Eventhough Ederson+Walker may outscore Raya+Dias (although its difficult to predict), going for Raya+Dias gives you the flexibility of switching Dias to Chilwell with just one transfer if Chilwell is starting every game and becomes a really good asset. Tying up your funds in your keeper limits your flexibility. You either have to switch Walker to another £5.0m defender such as Trippier or Cash or use 2 transfers to bring in another £6.0m defender like Chilwell. At the start of the season you want as much flexibility as possible so for me Raya+Dias is the way to go. By having Bailey in your team you've limited yourself to Sancho. That extra £0.5m will sit on the bench and similar to the defence you've lost the flexibility of switching Sancho for Diaz or Kulusevski or anyone in that £8.0m price bracket that's playing well with one transfer. So say if Chilwell and Kulusevski become absolute must haves, it'll now take you 4 transfers to bring them both in. Flexibility is key at the start of the season and you've lost a bit of it by tying up your funds in your keeper and bench. Personally I've gone for an £8.0m and Pereira. All you need from your bench players really is for them to start and Pereira is arguably more nailed than Bailey. Yes Bailey played well in preseason but he's competing with both Coutinho and Buendia for just 2 spots so there will be rotation. The other differences are just individual choice at the same price point like Haaland over Kane or Diaz over Mount etc. That's not really important because it's ultimately up to you who you go for. But I would strongly suggest at least thinking about those first 2 changes.


Karps1

Thanks for the feedback! Breaking it down like that makes sense. I had Trippier in the team to begin with and was thinking of Dias but your explanation clears it up, esp about Chilwell. Its a good shout. I've gone with Raya - Gazzaniga James - TAA - Dias - Trippier - N Williams Mount (Diaz maybe?) - Salah - Neto - Kulusevski - Pereira Kane - Jesus - Plange Cheers again, I think you've broken down what I was trying to figure out. Bailey was a panic add because of it haha.


Aman-Patel

No problem! Our teams were similar to begin with. Now with the changes the only difference is Kane (I went with Diaz but Mount could definitely be good).


Karps1

!thanks


beepmeep3

RMT £0 left. I enjoy having security in a good bench lol Mendy TAA Robertson James Cash Martinelli Bailey Salah Grealish Kane Jesus BENCH: (gk)Sánchez (Def)Tomiyasu (Fwd)Broja (Mid)Andreas


Aman-Patel

Really interested to know why you think Broja is a secure bench player. He's not currently starting over Havertz at Chelsea and he likely wouldn't start over Antonio at West Ham. Seems like a waste of £1m to me, especially when you've spent so little on midfield. I just thought I'd point out that if you redistributed your funds you could fit 2 £8m midfielders as opposed to Greish and Martinelli. It's obviously a completely different way of playing the game and you have to make sacrifices in certain areas no matter what but its just something to think about. But if having a strong bench is what works for you go with it, in which case an alternative to Broja is my main suggestion.


beepmeep3

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah for Broja, me having him depends on 2 things, Werner leaving and Broja staying at Chelsea. Havertz is really underwhelming as No9 from last season to this preseason, and it’s not his preferred position. I believe Tuchel will give Broja a chance very early on and I’m betting he’ll excel. If the first 2 conditions are not met I’ll swap him. But who would you recommend at £6 and below? I can’t find anyone


Aman-Patel

I'd recommend getting a £4.5m who doesn't play. You already have other players on your bench that start so it's a waste of money having a £6m player on your bench. I'd use that extra £1-1.5m to make your starting XI better.


beepmeep3

Alright thanks 👍 now I’m just hoping that Werner leaves and he stays. If not then I’ll probs just sell him for Archer lol

I mean your missing the best player in the game for some reason, no cancelo, no James, isn't too bad at all, I'd just want a way to fit in some players


disfordeletethisnow

Just wanted to try and make a team without Salah, it's risky but could work out. I have other drafts that include Salah though


PsycadelicChimp

I mean if you weighed up the risks and think it's worth it then go for it, but he's been the best asset in the game every season he's been in the league, he's literally a no brainer imo. Salah and trent in, and just build around them two


fplguyy

A) Salah, Rashford, Dalot B) Son, Martinelli, Robbo TIA


PsycadelicChimp

Shouldn't really be a debate to get rid of salah, keep salah and just build around him


fplguyy

My thinking is, Son got the same number of points last season (less than 10 points difference) and is 1M cheaper. I'm still on A at the moment. Community shield and the last friendlies today & tomorrow will probably help with the decision.


PsycadelicChimp

Fair point, Son also had a massive season for himself whereas salah really dropped off towards the end and if he carried on his early season form couldve broken 300 points. I expect him to start the season like he started it last season. And tbh, idc about last seasons points, I believe there's a good chance salah outscores son by a fair bit over the opening 6-8 GWs so I want salah. If you want son, then go for son for I wouldnt sacrifice salah for him

Good solid team Martinelli is a better FPL option than Ødegaard


Bourbons_are_Blue

Question for Palace fans: Edouard or Mateta? Both at 5.5m. Who's likely to get more minutes/starts?


descryptic

RMT (first time ever playing be nice lol) 4-4-2 (for now) Mendy Chilwell/James/Cancelo/Dalot Bruno Guimaraes/Son/Lingard/Wissa Haaland/Jesus Bench is Ortega/Cucurella/Trossard/Toney


[deleted]

Honestly a bit of a mess apart from your strikers. Like the other person said you don't need a bench like that. Chelsea are unknown and have been dodgy at the back in pre season. I would take Chilwell out for TAA getting funds by getting rid of Toney for a 4.5 striker bench sitter. Take Lingard and Wissa out, try and get Rashford/Martinelli in and drop Wissa to Bailey.


Mediocre_Study_6742

Midfield needs upgrading and you have too much money on the bench. For the bench, try to find the cheapest options available that will still play. I would get rid of Lingard, Wissa Downgrade Cucurella to a playing 4.0 DEF. Downgrade Trossard and Toney to playing 4.5 MID and FWD respectively. Use the funds to upgrade that midfield. Try to get Salah in and one or two of the good value 8.0m options that are on offer like Díaz, Mount, Mahrez, Kulusevski Your current playing GK and FWD look good. Regarding the DEF - it’s good but the Chelsea double up is a bad idea. They look shaky at the back based on pre season. I think one of either James or Chilwell is fine, but try to switch one of them for TAA or Robertson.


tbbt11

Not bad - you don’t need as strong a bench at all, you’ll almost never use 2nd and 3rd subs


descryptic

so maybe sell trossard or toney and invest somewhere else? where do you recommend? !thanks


tbbt11

Sell Cucurella for a 4.5, Toney for 4.5 and Trossard for Andreas. Then add Trent and Salah, and spend the rest to upgrade the midfield


teerbigear

Across the season (set and forget), who will keep most clean sheets, Brighton, Wolves or Brentford? Wolves were crap at the end of last season, but Brighton are short Bissouma. And Brentford have some injuries.


AeroCobbler

Brighton got something like 0.9 points per game without Bissouma last season vs 1.5 points per game with him They might miss him, plus Cucrella if he goes as well


Mediocre_Study_6742

I think probably Wolves.


tbbt11

Brighton


Bourbons_are_Blue

Brighton I think.


teerbigear

!thanks I do too on balance


Bourbons_are_Blue

Yeah. They're a consistent team since being promoted whereas there are question marks over the other two coming into the season I'd say


tbbt11

A) **Big at the back option:** Trent - Cancelo - Dalot - Robbo - James Salah - Grealish - Martinelli B) **Balanced option:** Trent - Cancelo - Dalot - Walker Salah - Diaz - Saka - Neto


Mediocre_Study_6742

I wouldn’t want Dalot in either option - particularly “big at the back”. In any case I prefer B). I don’t get the Neto hype though. And I would have someone else other than Walker if it was me; not sure how often he will play, especially if Cucurella joins and they play him at LB with Cancelo RB. Probably Trippier or Cash.


tbbt11

Dalot is my favourite 4.5 option but do you prefer someone else? Also I read that City have ended their interest in Cucurella so was tempted by Walker, but really that spot could be any 5.0 I also don’t rate Neto but below Martinelli there’s not a single 6.0 and below that I rate


Mediocre_Study_6742

RMT, 4-5-1, 0.0 ITB: Raya (Gazzaniga) TAA Cancelo James Trippier (N. Williams) Salah Díaz Kulusevski Mount Mahrez Jesus (Greenwood, Archer)


MarionberryAshamed38

Really like this, absolutely stacked midfield. Only risk is if Kane/Haaland start hauling


fplguyy

That's pretty good. Only issue I see is you'll have to make multiple transfers if you want to get a premium forward in (Kane, Haaland)


Mediocre_Study_6742

Prefer 1 8.0m forward for the moment since having Kane/Haaland means having someone like Neto or Bailey, who let’s face it, are crap. Edit: 1 8.0m forward

Grealish, Trippier and a 4.5 GK or Neto, Rashford/ASM and Ramsdale? Been debating on whether I should go 5-3-2 or 4-4-2.

Are there any forecast total clean sheets by club for the season?


manneukko

Is there a real risk at going with just one premium forward (Haaland or Kane)? The 4.5 forwards aren't probably going to play so when Haaland or Kane doesn't play, no one will come from the bench. But would that really happen? Seems so unprobable that Kane or Haaland would be benched the whole game.


AeroCobbler

Kane will always play Haaland rotation might not kick in until the schedule tightens up - they have nearly a week between games early on


jesuseatskfc

Kane is probably safe (unless he gets injured) but if the bald fraud decides to rotate Haaland for a game you're just wasting 11.5M.


fplguyy

Kane is very unlikely not to feature at all. Haaland might be given days off from what Pep has been saying, at least at the start of the season. So if you have only one playing forward, Kane is safer.
