Obviously we're still waiting on fixtures, but no harm in throwing this thread up now

My first semi-serious draft:

Ryan (Button)
TAA Doherty Vinagre (Dallas, 4.0)
KdB Son Pulisic Greenwood (4.5)
Ings Jimenez Antonio

.5 in the bank so Ings or Jimenez could become Martial. Obviously missing some big hitters but overall it doesn't feel bad to me. Kdb auto captain for many games. Martial (should I get him) another good captain option especially for home games. TAA/Son/Pulisic/Jimi etc. might cover the odd one. No Bruno despite me being adamant I'd get him! Though Martial + Greenwood definitely represent better value I think. Thoughts appreciated

First draft, obviously subject to fixtures and whims etc.

You are looking at 8 potential non starters in GW1

Remember City, United, Villa and Burnley have no game

Even post that 4/5 defenders have serious question marks over them

Father Hernandez

My team is nearly finalised bar some 4.5 defenders and up top.

Biggest dilemma is:

A) Ings & 4.5 DF (Vinagre at present)

Didn't take as long as I thought to settle on my team. 0.5 in the bank left. Will use it to upgrade Vinagre to Saiss if that situation changes in the next day or so.

Callum Robinson going to WBA makes me think Brewster may go to Sheffield Utd now so at 4.5m is worth a punt. He's bench fodder anyway. Fernandes to come in Week 2 and KDB in gameweek 3 is the plan.

Robinson wasnt at Sheff U for the majority of last year and they coped just fine. I just dont see how Brewster fits their style at all.

Johnstone Button

Id prefer Ward Prowse and Ritchie instead of Armstrong and Saint-Max if it looked like Ritchie was going to start.

If it looks like Vinagre isn’t starting I’ll move him onto Ferguson

First draft.

GK: West Brom duo
DF: TAA - B Davies - KWP - Justin - (Shaw)
MD: Auba - Salah - Havertz - Alli - (4.5)
FD: Werner - Adams - (4.5)

I'll have to wait for Friday to make final decisions with Alli, Havertz, and Adams. I reckon Werner is nailed from the beginning. Could easily do Mitrovic > Adams and work my team around to fit Kane in. He was a shoe in in my team but I worry his explosive form at the end of the season could've been curtailed by the English sides form. Think United will continue their defensive solidness at the back so that's why I'm taking the chance with Shaw to sit out GW1. Plan is to WC after the transfer window shuts around GW4-5 ish. Any thoughts very welcome!

Interesting. Without wanting to tell you what to do, I'd certainly get rid of Keita and Salisu however.

Neither are nailed on. Keita simply isn't a good Fantasy asset even for 5.5..

You have 3 players without a gw one. I'd advise carrying a max of 1 blank player (City, Utd, Villa, Burnley).and of you want have a plan to transfer one or 2 in for gw 2

So you'd need everyone else to play to field 11 in gameweek one.

You don't have any bench fodder. Remember you only need to play 11 each week so you can afford to carry one 4.0 def or 4.5 mid/fwd depending on your formation. Starting 4.5 mids are generally popular as if one of your starters doesn't play, they're generally reliable for 2 pts or on the odd occasion nicking a goal.

Settled on this team for the moment. Are the 3 Liverpool players overkill? Should I downgrade one of them in order to make the team more balanced?

I think this will be a bit over played, even if there's a 3/4 weeks where games are cancelled, and you're relying on these players, it's not worth weakening your starting XI for the other 34 weeks to manage that risk

Cheers! I was 50/50 between Martinez and McCarthy and may well change them. I was hoping to see Aurier leaving and that's why I had Foyth but it looks like I will have to change him now also.

Antonio's goals and assists per minutes played from last season look really good to me, especially for that price. Who would you recommend putting ahead of him out of curiosity? I took Mitrovic out for him when I seen Antonio's stats

I have Adams, Wood and Wilson in my team and would porbably have Mitrovic ahead of Antonio too (and I'm a West Ham fan). I actually think Moyes is gonna try to reset Haller, and go with him up top with Antonio playing wide.

Yeah there's a bit of competition alright but there's always the chance they all start in a midfield 3.

Good team, can't fault most of that.

The one problem I see though is Soucek as he has been self-isolating recently and missed a lot of training sessions so I've a feeling he won't start the weekend and then his fixtures are poor for a while.

Reed should be nailed on yeah.

Early draft for me so advice welcome

Ryan Mccarthy

Here's my latest iteration, plus 0.5 ITB

Johnstone (Ryan)
TAA - KWP - Ben Davies (Justin - C Taylor)
Salah - Auba - Son - Soucek (Reed)
Werner - Mitro - Wilson

Forever an advocate of the cheap defence, I'm just biting the bullet and getting Trent. Not quite going for the Robbo double up yet :pac:

Ben Davies feels like a luxury, but I got fed up of figuring out which other 4.5 options to go for.

Button would be a gift in the set and forget world but I feel like there's potential for postponement with covid so having 15 playing players spread around is a reasonably sensible idea, plus if WBA turn out to be terrible I still have Ryan to cover my ass/give me a headache!

Midfield seems obvious. Not sure if I'm proud or disgusted at the Soucek love, and also have those quarantine fears? Reed is a 4.5 mid that plays right?

Son seems too good to turn down at his price. It's gonna be impossible to cover everything though, and while I originally had Greenwood on the bench in a 5 man midfield, there's enough question marks over his Iceland situation to convince me to worry about him if he becomes a problem for me later on!

The front 3. What could possibly go wrong huh? :pac:

It feels balanced overall I think, although I'm clearly a traditionalist 3-4-3 FPL man who enjoys his attacking players and plugging gaps at the back...

Yea I think having 2 duds on the bench is risky this season.

The wonderfish

Any thoughts on who will be the starting keeper for villa?...could be a cheap way of getting two playing keepers...at least until Heaton gets back

eh i dunno

Hi folks, best of luck with your mini leagues this season,
Getting close to final draft now I hope!

Johnstone Button
TAA Robertson C Taylor KWP Douglas
Salah Auba Ali Armstrong Reed
Werner Adams Mitrovic
0.5 itb

I usually start with 2 playing keepers but money seems to be tighter this year, plan on selling Auba for KdB after 2 weeks and probably sacrifice one of the cheap strikers to fund a move for an early band wagon in midfield.
Douglas is a cheap defender who has a chance of a start but he could change yet.
Any feed back welcome cheers

Just to throw a spanner in the works....

Salah scored in the opening match with Liverpool the last 3 seasons

0 ITB.
I'm thinking of maybe Webster to Dallas for no monetary difference.
I am slightly concerned about not having TAA and Werner.

Be very surprised if Jorginho gets much gametime, I'd downgrade him to a 4.5 and use the 0.5 elsewhere.

Mitchell over Bernardo maybe?
Weirdly want DCL too.

Any opinions very welcomed, little worried about Leno issue either so could move to Saliba or Holding...

Thanks!
