2018/19 FPL Rate My Team Thread

Scorpion Sting

On this at the moment:

Begovic
Kiko Douglas Bednarek
Salah Sané Mkhi Walcott
Firmino Zaha Aguero

Fabianski - Mee Tomkins Masuaku

Fabianski is great value at 4.5 million, set and forget at that price. Defence is a bit weak so changes will happen here for sure. Hoping Bednarek can nail down a starting spot. There is a real dearth of options up front this season so can't see too many other options other than the likes of Aubameyang, Kane, Arnie and Vardy. Midfield is going to be Salah, Sané and 3 others. Walcott is there for now for his explosiveness.

If people are posting their teams could they offer some reasons why they chose some of the players and also offer advice to others, cheers.

I would swap Robertson to VanDijk. Around champions league games, Moreno might play some league matches. Think VanDijk would be more assured starter.

VVD isn't immune either. Matip will get game time too. Nevertheless it's a toss up between VVD and Robertson points-wise as I see Virgil putting in impressive scores this years.

Cantona's Collars

Pretty happy with my team but one niggle is to keep Zaha or swap him for Mitrovich???
Stick or twist.
My other 2 strikers are Aguero and Firmino.

Kiith

Might swap Zaha back for King, and that'd allow me to get Ederson in goals.

Would like to get Boardies views on Michael Keane 5m. Had Jagielka originally but have upgraded to Keane. Everton decent run of fixtures plus think he may be a goal threat. Scored in pre season. Is he worth the punt or is there better value elsewhere?

I feel the same, but finding the .5 to upgrade is difficult

Also he is a bit sh*t

Iused2likebusts

Think I'm there now
Foster fab
Mendy Robertson Doherty wan bissaka peltier
Salah Sanchez richarlison Fraser cairney
Aguero firmino ings
Will start with ings on bench this week. Did wolves sign anybody that can take Dohertys place.

If you are willing to pay 5ml for an everton defender find another 0.5 and get Coleman

I'd be slow to play a defender facing Liverpool at home this season.
DeBruyne might not start as was involved in the world cup to the final stages and might get more of a rest.

Green&Red

I'm off to a wedding shortly so will probably ignore all but the very best of advise

Foster - Fab
Boly - Shaw - Cedric - Mendy - Wan B
Salah - Pedro - Jota - Richarlison - Hudson O
Aguero - Firmino - Mitrovic

With 3m in the bank to upgrade one of Jota/Ricki/Pedro/Mitro depending on the weekends action

km79

You put the Bailly in , you take the coleman out, you put the PVA in and ya shake it all about

I am going insane

And I am so focused on that one position I have not really gone back to the keeper situation which may lead to me needing another 4.5 defender

and then there is the 4.5 mid who is probably not going to get used now anyway given the money in defence......I stuck Westwood for Burnely in last night as FFS have him as a starter.............

Oh and Arnie is currently on my bench. Picking the team is another headache..............I am getting tempted.............actually next week could be a better shout for BB

Like the idea of leaving money itb. Aggressive move. Gives yourself lots of scope to get the right player for GW2.

Down to two choices now:

De Gea
Bailly Robertson Mendy Peltier Wan Bissaka
Salah Mane B Silva Neves Stephens
Aguero Zaha Arnautovic

or

Ederson
Cedric Kabasele Robertson Peltier Wan Bissaka
Salah Mane Alexis Neves Stephens
Aguero Zaha Arnautovic

If I could convince myself that Sanchez will do nothing tonight, I would chance B Silva in midfield. Easy to move Sanchez to a Man City midfielder for next week.

IMO if you're planning on WC'ing early like I think you are, I'd pick a strong front 11 and not worry about the bench. I've 0M extra on my fodders. Pick your strongest team (inc. Arny). If it's only for 4 or so GW's maximize the mula!

Fitz*

Changed my team a lot again this morning, think I am happier with it though. Took out Sanchez to get in Aguero.

Mendy TAA Shaw
Sane Jota Salah Richarlison
Firmino Aguero Ings

the ol' play as many forwards / wing backs as possible formation!

GBX

Noob round here .. any input/opinions on this:

Mokuba

Going to be a lot of people very disappointed when Cedric is left out the first few weeks.

yourdeadwright

I'm done

                  Begovic
          Trent, Daniels Jonny
Salah Sane Neves Eirkson MHki
      Aubameyan   Firmino

Bench : Fab , kamara, Peilter , WB

Thinking of maybe bringing in that young lad whos been playing for Chelsea pre-season over Neves,

Schär probably won't start for Newcastle for a week or two. Same with De Bruyne.

Playing a West Ham defender against Liverpool?!? :-o

Rashford is rotated constantly, so wouldn't pick him either

Alonso and Azpil - two defenders from one team, new manager and new formation. They wont be played as wing backs and have the same haul as last season. Better options out there.

Was listening to a podcast this morning who said him and Adrian have been sharing minutes in pre season

Ederson, Speroni

Mendy, Tomkins, WAN, Bolym Daniels

Salah, Sanchez, Cairney, Richarlison, Kenedy OR Fraser

King, Firmino, Aguero

Not sure how I have ended up with potentially 4 Bournemouth

GBX

Thanks for the input lads. Will make some changes!

SteelyDanJalapeno

Thoughts on my team? Bench is very light but I'm looking ahead to WC gw 3 probably

hawkeyethenoo

Any thoughts?

Pickford; Patricio
Lovren, Bertrand, Daniels; Wan-Bissako, Bernardo
Salah, David Silva, Neves, Townsend; Hudson-Odoi
Kane, Aguero, King

citytillidie

Starting with

GK - Ederson (Man C)
DEF - Ward (Burnley), Van Dijk (Liverpool), Benalouane (Leicester)
MID - Salah (c) (Liverpool), Hazard (Chelsea), Wilshere (West Ham), Sané (Man C)
ATT - Arnautovic (West Ham), Firmino (Liverpool), Zaha (Crystal Palace)

Bench - GK Ryan (Brighton), Duffy (Brighton), Costa (Wolves), Bennett (Wolves)

Fabianski was on extended holiday leave after the WC. Once he came back he played the last 2 games, they werent sharing all pre season he just wasnt there. They also just paid 7m for him, Adrian is on the last year of his contract. Fabianski is as good as nailed on bar lack of fitness or injury imo.

West Ham forum disagrees with you. Thinks it's 50/50, leaning toward Adrian. I'd be inclined to listen to them.
