They always announce a few tasters
Arsenal’s new forward Alexandre Lacazette will be priced at £10.5m in FPL this season https://t.co/I0PEWgQy9V

Tom Heaton 5ml

Aenaes · 07-07-2017 4:17pm

Too expensive. Also doesn't Wenger love easing in his new signings?

ScummyMan · 07-07-2017 4:42pm

Won't be going near him at that price. A forward line of Kane-Lukaku-Defoe almost certainly awaits me.

Depending on pricing I'll probably have the same
Need Defoe to be 7.5 max really
Kane 12 lukaku 10.5

Brighton midfielder Anthony Knockaert will be priced at £6.0m in FPL this season https://t.co/MRIPV6HEXs

Believe he is one to watch
6 may be a bit rich ?

Lucas Hood · 07-07-2017 4:53pm

Knockaert 6m announced too.

km79 · 07-07-2017 4:58pm

I wonder are the prices fixed now ..........lukaku still not signed for united but will be completed soon
Be great if he comes in at his Everton price

Lucas Hood · 07-07-2017 5:00pm

Probably announce a defender next as done gk, mid & fw already.
I'm going for Lindelof 6m.

I want a united defender but not for 6ml
Hopefully bailly is 5.5 as I expect Valencia to be 6

Burnley confirm the signing of Jon Walters from Stoke City https://t.co/bZqUNjj28R

km79 · 07-07-2017 7:01pm

Fabregas 7ml
Isn't hazard a doubt for start of season too

I reckon Kane will be 13m. Top scorer the last 2 seasons and his points per 90 minutes last season was 7.99. I think they'll go big on him this season.

Kane is definitely 13, if not 13.5 imo, especially given Lacazette is as high as 10.5.

Yep that's a big indicator that they're going to go big on the premium players this season.

Iused2likebusts · 08-07-2017 8:14am

Hopefully arsenal signing lacazette may mean they will leave Sanchez as a mid.

Josh King now classed as a forward.

Benteke is 8 million.

Could be interesting but lost peno duty late last season.

I don't think Sanchez played enough as a pure striker to be reclassified anyhow. Was wide left most of the time, especially towards end of season.

Firmino will almost certainly be reclassified though IMO.

Defoe will be similar or lower and will be on pens given all the misses Bournemouth has last year
Really hoping he is 7.5

CSF · 08-07-2017 11:43am

Seems like there will be no value this year.

The pricing of Lacazette is really disappointing. New to the league so needed to be a better price to tempt me as I was considering gambling on him. Not at that price though.

Fabregas .......for start of season anyway which is all I want

Yup, only thing is if they price everybody who is any way decent in premium prices like they have Lacazette, it will be hard to even find 7 mill.

We always say the prices are tighter but they really seem to be.

Cheap defence (31m), Lukaku and Kane, 4.5 bench fodder mid - will be lucky if that leaves your 40m for 4 mids and a forward.

Father Hernandez · 08-07-2017 1:05pm

Tom Ince at Huddersfield down as 6 million

Expensive IMO

km79 · 08-07-2017 1:13pm

Tom ince also .5 more than expected !
Does not bode well for the bigger players

FHFC · 08-07-2017 1:13pm

Yeah Ince 0.5 dearer than I'd have hoped.

CSF · 08-07-2017 1:44pm

This is getting a tad ridiculous.

ScummyMan · 08-07-2017 2:26pm

They'd never be increasing the budget from 100m would they??

I doubt it. But you're right in that the relative team value to last year is very likely to have greatly decreased. Of course we all have to work with the same prices, but I think the combined price of the 220 expected starting players shouldn't vary really by the year. A bell curve approach is absolutely the right one.

There was some talk on FFS of deflation of prices of defs and GKs. No defs announced yet but Heaton no cheaper than you'd expect.

Father Hernandez · 08-07-2017 4:41pm

Harry Maguire priced at 5 million for Leicester.

ars, BRI, mun, CHE, hud, LIV, bou - first 7 fixtures

Salah down as 9 million

.5 too expensive.

At this rate, Mané will be 10.5.

Could see Alli at 11 or 11.5 tbh. Seems like serious inflation.

km79 · 08-07-2017 8:14pm

They must be raising the 100ml ....

alchemist33 · 08-07-2017 8:16pm

Sure it'll be no bother with my three Brighton defenders!

manual_man · 08-07-2017 9:07pm

So folks does anyone have insight on defenders from the promoted teams who might be worthy of consideration

SlickRic · 08-07-2017 9:07pm

This is the problem with the top 6 now being so much better than the rest of the league. There are going to be that many players at premium prices.

FHFC · 08-07-2017 10:00pm

Taking a step back I don't see much wrong with most of the prices.

Salah scored 15 league goals and got 11 assists in Series A last season in 29 starts.

I had hopes of Ince being 5.5 but with 14 goals and 6 assists in a promoted side he was always gonna be 6. As were the top promoted attacking mids last season. Ritchie etc.

Lacazette is reasonable for an elite attacker in a top 6 attacking side. We thought Zlatan was steep last year. He wasn't.

Benteke is the only one you could slightly complain about, up 0.5 from last season, after not setting the world alight. But he (and Palace) finished strong, he has great shooting stats. It's not that unreasonable.

Fab is a bargain if he looks like starting. Which he might initially with Hazard out.

Heaton, Knockaert, Maguire are bang on what you'd expect. Knockaert arguably is value once their fixtures improve.

I'm going with tikka m salah as my team name this year.

bodking · 08-07-2017 11:10pm

What does anyone think of Depoitre - Huddersfield Striker . I'm thinking of teaming him up with Gross or Knockaert - Brighton as a 3rd Striker

bodking · 08-07-2017 11:17pm

Anyone know anything about Tripper - Spurs. Will he start . I watch him play last season and will be amazed if he us not a first choice player .

Walker hasn't left and nobody has come in so it's impossible to say for now. Dani Alves signing would sure put a spanner in the works.

Alves might be heading to PSG.
