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

Nice team. Not sure about Lewis, will he definitely start the first game? Could go safe with Lascelles. If he doesn't start you are relying on Mitchell as Taylor has no game.
Also who are you benching from your front 8? Saka?

Possibly but think Bruce wanted them in the squad for this weekend so maybe his new big signing gets the nod

5m defenders are a strange one. Not too many great options. If I had to go one I'd probably go John Egan...

Had him in my very 1st draft. But arguably 5 of their first 8 fixtures are very tough. While Spurs only really have United away. And switching Henderson for Ramsdale it's unknown if they'll be as tight at the back.

Again I believe Spurs will have a mean defence this year so it's a matter of opinion. I'm sticking with my gut.

Absolutely, but it would mean downgrading someone like Ings or Mitro. Not touching PEA, Salah, Werner or TAA.
Want to keep Son also. At least initially.
Actually, it's sort of Son/Bavies vs Alli/Doherty. Hmmm...

I don't know. But even if Bavies does start most games, I'd still consider Doherty the better pick at a million more.

I think he doesn't have much competition this season though for the LB place? Rose surely won't play as many minutes. Rose played 1753 minutes last season to Bavies 1430.

Bavies returned 41 pts from 1430 mins last season. 66pts from 1837 mins the season before. Not a single attacking return in either. Granted he got 9 attacking returns 3 seasons ago, but that season was an anomaly.

Nice 11 but I think the bench is very weak, potentially no starters there

I do agree. And it's the cheapest possible bench. But they all enable more premium players in that 11. Also I've went for the 3 that I feel are most likely to start the first few games at that price point. Potentially none are starters, or all 3 are. Time will tell. Mitchell should be safe for 1-2 GWs minimum IMO.

It's a really nice team and quite similar to mine tbh.

Couple things to ponder as I'd similar thoughts.

Is Bavies really worth an extra 0.5 over a 4.5 DF?
If Soucek doesn't start well, might see mass transfers out and lose value.
Mitchell looks like he'll start the season but a transfer waiting to happen.
I don't think any other 4.0 defenders will start nevermind Douglas, maybe switch to a less owned 4.0 to protect price changes?

I think Bavies is defo worth it

It's the Spurs fixtures and the fact that I believe Jose will have them quite tight at the back. I honestly believe they will have one of the best defensive records come the end of the season. I think he is worth the extra 0.5 for that reason. Apart from KWP no 4.5s are really convincing me. Who would you suggest?

I know the risks with Soucek, he's been in and out of my team until the news today that he's ok to play. Again nothing much in the 4.5 mids. Reed maybe?

Agree on Mitchell. But he's just an enabler for now.

A lot of the predicted lineups had Douglas starting LB for Leeds. I didn't see much of the Championship last season admittedly. I like the idea of protecting price, but I'd prefer players that might actually start in case they are needed.

Despite all the Twitter talk Soucek is only owned by 7% of managers so not sure he will drop that quickly. Think he is in my team for the year regardless - so much more potential for 0.5m more!

I think the 5.0m defenders are miles ahead of the 4.5m defenders from a points ceiling perspective.

I think I'm done tinkering.
Main doubt was Son/Ings or JWP/Kane.
I think the current team is well enough balanced?

I think he means Dallas, played in alot of different positions last year for leeds, between CM, winger and full back. Got a few goals last year and a few assists granted. Worth a punt granted.

Yeah Dallas did play in midfield a bit last year alright but is mainly used at fullback - I expect him to start at left back this season. He is 4.5 though, not 4.

Haven't really taken fantasy football seriously for the last couple of years but looking forward to it this year

Current draft:

Goalkeepers: Johnstone, Button.
Defenders: TAA, Dier, Justin, KWP, Mitchell
Midfielders: PEA, Salah, Pulisic, Jota, Reid
Strikers: Werner, Antonio, Mitrovic

0.5 in bank

Taking a punt on Pulisic. May change him if we got more information before the deadline. Thoughts?
