    I think you answered your own questions! Not sure on Dallas. But heard talk about him. Secret to success of going this route is nailing the 4.5 defenders. Jiminez is a good pick as can downgrade or upgrade fairly handy.

    Can't see a better option than McGoldrick at his price. Noticed Bamford is highest owned 5.5. If Leeds sign a big name to partner him could be decent?

    You're probably right! Wanted to give some reasoning behind the picks but I've convinced myself already. :D

    Fixtures obviously will play a massive part.

    was messing around and decided to make a middle aged team. Light at the back, thin up top and very wide in the middle. 3-5-2
    Gambles on on of the 4.0m defenders starting. Treble city midfield.

    Martinez (Button)
    Vinagre-Braithwaite-KWP (Douglas, Ferguson)
    Sterling-KDB-Aubameyang-Salah-Foden
    Adams-Antonio (Davis)

    Could probably change Adams to Bamford and another 4.5 defender.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Current draft

    Ryan
    TAA Taylor Vinagre
    KDB Salah Auba Greenwood Soucek
    Jimenez Bamford

    Subs: Button, Davis, Ferguson, Branthwaite

    Pros: Strong midfield with coverage from 4 of the top 6

    Cons: Very weak bench, possibility that none of them will feature. It’s a bit of a risk, but I’m hoping that the first 11 all start the first couple of games.

    Only about 800K of the 7 million or so people registered so a bit to go yet but ownership stats so far:

    KDB - 62%
    TAA - 56%
    Bruno - 42%
    Werner - 36%
    Pope - 32%
    Mitro - 28%
    Martial - 28%
    Ryan - 28%
    Salah - 26%
    Auba - 23%

    Mitrovic has higher ownership than Salah :)

    Latest try:

    Leno (4.0)
    TAA Vinagre Taylor (Dallas, 4.0)
    KdB Bruno Greenwood Pulisic Soucek
    Werner Martial (4.5)

    Pulisic could become Jimi or Ings

    Will Leno start though could be Martinez. Looks way more balanced than the teams I ended up with. Could get Foden instead of Pulisic (injured) and get Son instead of Greenwood so you would not be so Man U heavy. Mixes it up a bit

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    I like the idea of triple Man I attack I think they'll get a tonne of goals. If Martinez starts the Community Shield ahead of Leno then I can get him instead

    Has it been confirmed yet if the Manchester teams are playing in GW1?
    They may have a delayed start to the season due to euro games.

    It has been reported that both Manchester clubs will be exempt from the opening weekend following their European commitments in recent weeks.

    I'm a Man United supporter. I had Trent and Mane in my team throughout last season. I just think that teams that win leagues are sluggish the next year. I'll wait and see how they fare before getting any Liverpool players in.

    Last year I finished in top 225k and topped my 3 main mini leagues.

    Lfc have Leeds on GW1. Triple Liverpool essential so.

    Neither Manchester club confirmed for GW1.
    I'll have to bin my team and start again. Can't have 4 players benched in the first week given the uncertainty of line-ups.

    I think pool concede Leeds very attacking Beilsa a head the ball.

    My team:

    McCarthy [steer]
    Saliba-Justin-Vinagre (Braithwaithe-Ferguson)
    Mane-Salah-Aubameyang-Soucek-Maddison
    Adams-Werner - (Mitrovic)

    I know Justin-Saliba are gambles. But think defence is place to take risks this year. I don't trust spurs nor see value in them.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Fixtures change everything! :D

    Changed to this:

    McCarthy (4.0)
    TAA Doherty Vinagre Justin (Dallas)
    Mané Auba Son Soucek (4.5)
    Ings Jimenez (4.5)

    O.5 in the bank (maybe Martial in gw2)

    Could all change though especially if we hear of an early dgw!

    Oh FPL, how you torture us

    Just to note on Soucek.. West Ham have brutal fixtures after gw 1. I had him in my original draft but gonna switch him out for armstrong or st max

    Thoughts on Kepa? Obviously no guarantee they don't sign someone but a 5m starting top 6 keeper has to be worth considering?

    Yeah I saw that. But he's only 5m and a handy starter for gw1. 4.5m options are pretty rubbish.

    But this is Chelsea under Frank not Jose. In fpl the 4.5m keepers from middle of road teams work best. Will start and save points.

    Going against my thoughts on 4-5-1. I've got a 3-5-2 draft at the moment

    McCarthy
    TAA/Ferguson/Justin
    Gordon/Traore/ Aubam/ Ziyech / Salah
    Vardy Werner


    Steer Ayling Branthwaite Wickham

    I really don't know why i'm so set on double Ziyech/Werner, but I am. could easily do a Werner to Martial for GW2

    First stab at this, feels pointless without knowing the fixtures but here goes.

    McCarthy-Nyland

    TAA-KWP-Taylor-Ferguson-Branthwaite

    KDB-PEA-Salah-Soucek-Gordon

    Werner-Adams-Wood

    Can't see me starting with double Southampton defence but no other 4.5 keeper jumping out at me.

    Fixtures announcement lead me to this:

    McCarthy-Nyland

    TAA-Vinagre-Justin-Taylor-Branthwaite

    Son-PEA-Salah-Soucek-Gordon

    Werner-Mitrovic-Davis

    4.0 in the bank at the moment, could get Ings/Jimenez in for Davis, or upgrade a GK/Def to Allison-Robbo-VVD

    Plan is to bank in GW2 and
    in GW3
    PEA to KDB
    Man United MF/FW in for someone

    McCarthy (Gunn)

    TAA Vinagre Saliba (Justin Mitchell)

    PEA Mane Keita StMax Moutinho

    Kane Vardy (Obafemi)



    Keita could still become Gini or Hendo - Keita most attacking of the 3 but least likely to start

    I was thinking of Henderson myself can chip in with a goal/assist. You might as well get 4.5m instead of Obafembi gives you 0.5 to play with Vardy Kane looks like best forwards for the gameweek.
