As an Irishman I'd advise to stay the fuck away from Kelleher he is a terrorist with the grace of a giraffe with polio

FUCK expensive strikers without 100% penalty taking

I’ve been bedridden with multiple sclerosis for 20 years and a football fanatic at least twice that long . After morning physical therapy, There’s no better way to start the day than listening to you guys breakdown various football topics. Thank you for nearly 10 years of awesome analysis, fellas.

Crazy how there's a template already. They really fucked the prices again

this is the no haaland/salah season, i just know it

>>150004388
Isak to Liverpool and I'll think about it.

>>150004101
>a terrorist with the grace of a giraffe with polio
Ekitike fits this description like a glove.

Kelleher
Aina Cucurella AWB
Tonali Salah Wirtz Marmoush Ndiaye
Gyorkeres Solanke

Areola Mykolenko Welbeck Esteve

I'm bench boosting gw1

More like Yök-eres

Got extra 0.5m itb , what do

>>150005122
Rogers to Eze

>>150005167
then I have no villa attacker to cover their good fixture run tho

>>150005167
planning to do ndiaye to sarr on gw 4 anyways

i'll remember yous when i win it all

Theres only 3-5 good midfielders as of pre-season and if you consider there to be 5 good ones you cant afford all of them, and if you can, then you can only afford to put a scarecrow up front. If you consider Wirtz might not fire 100% from the start, or play 90 min every game, and maybe Marmoush is a rotation risk, then arguably there is only 2 good midfield options in the whole game in Salad and Palmer. If youre unlucky then Palmer does nothing except when he gets a pen, and if youre really unlucky then Salad is old or gets his points absorbed and spread to others so you mostly wait for pens. Saka might lose penalties so hes not worth the price. This forces you to delude yourself into thinking players like Ndingo and Anderson are good or somehow value, when what they are is an everton mid on pens and a random forest midfielder.
Which means FPL thought but muh defensive contributions will mean people will fill in their midfield with Caicedo and Rice type players. But no, im going forward heavy because thats where the good and affordable / immediate value options are. fuck 3-5-2, this season is, obviously, 4-4-2, 3-4-3, or 4-3-3. Hell even 5-3-2 seems better to me than 3-5-2 spending every week hoping Ndongo (and Palmer) gets a penalty and anderson scraped together 2 DC points or whatever reddit shit hes supposed to be contributing with.
Midfield is so bad pre-season before I know whos nailed for City and if Wirtz is any good that I would play 4 or even 5 strikers if i could.
FPL is like yeah put the defensive midfield cuck and random nignog into your midfield you fucking schmuck and be happy when you get 2 dc points in midfield every 2-3 games and a penalty on the other guy every 5 games, but im not gonna play along with that like a total schmendrick.
Even in defense when the most expensive is 6M there will turn out to be essentials that show theres more value in defense than midfield atm.
Already is if dc points can make a 4.5-5M player have a 150+ point season.

>>150005654
hear me out...

>>150005654
I, for one, am glad to keep seeing 3 defender teams get posted everywhere, especially by content creators.

>>150004388
Salah has his nice fat new contract, Fraud Fraudiola has been exposed.... I feel it too, bro.

Absolute npc teams ITT so far
Are the real /sp/ pros retired from this or they wont post their teams here?

hehe

>>150006751
Post team, Ionuţ.

ya la sohai

Still subject to some tinkering but I'm 100% going to take the risk of no Salah or Haaland, they're just too expensive.

>>150006751
i am a real /espee/ pro

>>150008933
So three premiums seem viable? But two 4.5 gks seem unnecessary on such tight budget. I'd also drop John Peter and upgrade on midfield.

You'd have to be a fucking IDIOT not to get Gyökeres at £9.0m btw

diam la

behold

>>150007282
>salah and halaand too expensive!!
>btw i bench a 8m player
o_O

>>150005654
generally i agree with you. there's really not many mid priced midfielders that you can put in your team and think yeah this is a good idea. seeing teams with rice and caicedo give me headache.
considering caicedo, he's a 5.5m player who got 98 points last season and got 42 dc points for a grand total of 140 points. for rice, a 6.5m player who got 127 points last season and got 16 dc points for a meagre 143 points. it makes no fucking sense seeing these players in teams and not just putting a defender in instead.
the most prudent thing seems to be filling up your backline with 4.5m players, with maybe one 5.0+ player, and rotating them based on fixtures, and then dumping all your money in strikers. i'm going to be 4-3-3 or 3-4-3, i've not made up my mind yet

>lived to see oba femi wrestling and playing in EPL
Kino

Frimpong is the backup for Bradley and Salah btw.

haaland just scores at the start of the season I think this is the end of old man salah in my team

How're you getting on with your badge 9/11 anon?

>>150006751
Why should i give ypu free info?
>t.top million player every season

are nfo defenders the real deal? or just another pretty 1 season wonder

I swear this is the last time I play this shit. 3-5-2 seems useless, probably gonna tinker a bit more before season starts.

>>150005654
Like Magnus pointed out here I think 4-4-2 is better. Could just downgrade Rice since I dont really want him anyway and get Matheus Nunes if he still starts

>>150016744
Don't see why they wouldn't be good. They lost donkey elanga and who else?

>>150016744
if you trust le underlying stats, their entire team is filled with frauds

seen nobody mention this lad who is listed as a defender but appears to play on the wing for west ham am I missing something? he's played every preseason game is he not expected to play when the season starts?

>>150021593
he plays wingback just like AWB (the highest owned defender currently) so most people would rather get a (F)PL proven player than a potential fraud from the >czech league. plus they also signed walker-peters who can play on both sides but AWB's minutes are much more secure.

>>150021714
so he's a differential you say

>>150021734
Differential Diouf nuts

>John Peter selection keeps falling

>Snowape 0.8 selection keeps rising
lol

Goals from penalties should be 3 points to discourage everyone from selecting the likes of palmer who farms 7-8 penalties every campaign

>>150025284
Saving a penalty should be worth 15 points. The odds are stacked against keepers.

>>150027859

Any good 4m defenders to fill up the squad?

>>150033338
>Any good 4m defenders

No

>>150033338
if you're stuck with £4m defenders you need to rethink your squad

>>150033363
Just the last slot to fill.

I wouldn't need more than 3 defenders on most weeks anyway.

>>150033363
if you DON'T have a 4m defender you need to rethink your squad

fullkrug believers we are looking good

>0 shots and 0 key passes from Salah
h-he's just taking it easy for a long season, right?

>>150033338
Rodon or Esteve

Yes, I'm getting Esteve

>>150033604
He was, yet again, Liverpool's main attacking outlet.

Gyokeres looked rather shit Tbh

spurs defence

Not paid a single bit of attention to pre-season and just drafted off top of my head here, not seen any minutes, not read any reports, not browsed here, not even read the football news really been totally disengaged.
Will definitely change it but is it actually anything close to decent?

>Marc Guiu moves to Sunderland on loan from Chelsea
Finally, a £4.5 striker option. Time to get Haaland in.

>>150036918
If they all play 90 minutes, it's not bad. There are several uncertainties though.

denmark's brave patrick dorgu at 4.5 seems essential tbqhwyl

Death in Sonic

Debating whether to pick van de Ven, but don't know if I would replace de Cuyper or Konsa

>>150047667
for me it's porro

>>150047667
it's an interesting problem. van de ven is typically an injury magnet but one would wonder if that's because he needed to sprint across the field all game because ange sets his team up like a retard. i'd prefer to have udogie but he looks to be a minutes risk.
but i guess if you are torn between swapping out a 4.5m, i'd probably look at replacing konsa because cuyper sounds like he has more upside
>>150048051
i wish he wasnt 5.5

If Solanke is injured, downgrading him to Strand Larsen and Konsa -> Tarkowski

is Zubimendi a DM?

>>150051711

Pretty happy with this team. Just wondering what the best combo of £4.5 defenders are

Son leaving Spurs. Goodbye fraud.

>>150061441

>>150061441

>>150051633
Please help

>>150055334
I think Lacroix will be better than Geuhi for defensive points

>>150064157
Trossard to Rogers makes it good enough. That Arsenal left wing is rotation trouble.

Turns out it was "chikaner" spam. Don't want to think about if it's one guy or coordinated effort of multiple retards.

Who is that under 6m midfielder sleeper and why is it reijnders?

>>150067752
did gakpo get reclassified? thought he was listed as a forward last season

its rubbish isnt it

>>150079458
switched to midfielder now

>>150079478
frimpong/udogie bit of a rotation risk really. fuck knows who is left back for spurs and fuck knows if it's bradley or frimpong for liverpool

>>150079228
Will he even start?

A lot here have faith in Kudus at 5.5m

>>150079478
You sure it's rubbish?

>>150080038
Alrighty i might swap frimpong out for someone like tarkowski, ill probably leave udogie in as he's only 4.5 and im happy to take the risk. At this point im thinking of getting palmer in given every fuckin team has him, ill probably have to sell isak to afford it

>>150080606
Wow that's a wild team vietbro, I hope it works out from you. Extreme differential edition

>>150080606
I'd put more of a chance for Marc Guiu to do something vs. West Ham than Maguire to keep a clean sheet at Arsenal

>maddison injured
why did I bother thinking he would be fit for one game

>>150080528
He'll definitely start, just a question of how Pep uses him. Is he given the freedom to box crash like at Milan or is he turned into another sideways pass tiki kaka system baby?
And Kudus is 6.5.

>>150081833
Puts me off bringing in Solanke too

>>150081833
More reason to knee jerk Kudus

>>150082042
i think the more concerning thing would be solanke has been mia for most of the preseason

>>150082042
>>150081833
why on earth would you have any spurs players in your teams

>>150008933
Interesting Stand Larsen pick, but how are wolves gonna get goals without their two best playmakers (ait nouri and Cunha)?

>>150088119
Have you met their lord and savior John Arias?

>>150080528
>>150081923
He's a starter but not nailed. Rodri needs to get eased back into rotation. Bilva, Reijnders as midfielders. Foden number 10, Marmoush and take your pick on the wings and Haaland up front. Absolutely stacked squad

second game scoring in a row against premier league opposition there is no chance this is not a good decision

>>150088662
Tempting, but I'd need a little more persuasion to downgrade from Bowen

>>150021593
my boy with an assist

>>150088514
Foden won't start after last year's disaster. Regarding the rest, one of the trusted City FPL guys thinks it'll be something like pic related.

>Tarkowski back to health

What's happening? Am i missing something? Why is this fraud on so many teams?

>>150094506
i removed him due to his recent injury but might put him back if hes soon fine. Him vs Joao Pedro in the last striker spot for me. Plan would be to swap him for Strand Larsen when Spurs fixtures run out and put the extra million on a naiiled city midfielder

Bowen on fire guys

Wirtz is gonna be a steal at his current price. He's in the box so fucking much.

>>150099916
yeah he's looked really good so far

my question to you: which one of these is superior?

>>150100007
or the same thing as left but keeping mateta over solanke

>>150100007
defcon midfielders feel like a trap to me I'd go left but paqueta never really contributes except the occasional pen, which he might not take, and mbeumo definitely won't be on pens anymore so feels overpriced now

>>150099203
>pooland meme
opinion discarded

>>150099916
Can you trust a whitey from the blundesshart league?

>>150100105
caicedo i reckon is good steady points for 5.5
i feel like paqueta will have a good season now the betting stuff is sorted though. he did alright the year before 4g 6a and he'll be playing for one last big move before he's too old
mbeumo is probably a bad choice he's just looked quite good and intelligent in the one united match i've seen this pre season

“Wins”

>>150100181
I trust every white man implicitly.

Is Rice a decent pick at 6.5?

>>150104058
I'd say there are 2-3 better picks, but he is not awful. He is in my watchlist for when I bring in Arsenal players

>>150104058
rice at 6.5 is dog shit waste of money

solved it

Two Qs lads
>Thoughts on Malen?
>Bruno or Wirtz?

>>150104733
I've got malen in, the villa reddit seem to think he'll mostly be starting and at 5.5 it's not the end of the world if he only comes off the bench some games. for me it's wirtz because he's looked quality so far and hit double figure goals and assists in the last two seasons in fewer games than you'd expect him to play this year. bruno is going to be playing deep as well but obviously he'll be getting the occasional (P)

starting to think ndiaye is the biggest trap in the game

>>150104750
i get the funny feeling wirtz/fernandes will probably end up on the same amount of points. bruno managing to eek out around 20 g+a in united teams with hojlund starting is mind boggling. cunha/mbeumo make united infinitely better than last season so i dunno, i'm a bit bullish on fernandes. if only he was 8.5 and the united fixtures were bit less worrisome. if united had burnley/sunderland closer together i'd easily put bruno in over wirtz

>>150104927
true

>>15010492
Why

First time doing fpl, usually do bundassliga..

Strategy was penalty takers + attacking defenders + gambles with wirtz & gyokeres.


Am I making any glaring mistakes? Is it better to have shitters on the bench rather than deep squad?

Is there anyone who I desperately need like Salah or summin? Am thinking about taking out shrimpong because he doesnt seem to be a guaranteed starter. Any feedback would be great fellas. Will this tackling/interception gag be more important than goals/assists? Why else would anyone pick van dyke (who Im seeing a lot of).

>>150105090
Start Gyokeres
>Why else would anyone pick van dyke
Clean sheets+will start every game. He's at least top 10 most owned defender every season I think.

>>150105090
At least one of your bench players should be a 4.0/4.5 fodder, and putting gyokeres on the bench is a travesty (if you’ve got a 9.0 forward he should be starting every GW). I’d also look at swapping Sa for a 4.0 keeper, rotating starting keepers is a waste of funds and you’ll end up getting burned by surprise clean sheets

>£6.5m
>premier league proven
>mbeumo and cunha setting him up
yeah I'm thinking he's going to be essential at united

>>150105213
Who?

>>150105183

>>150107510
It used to be similar but they have strayed further and further away from it. The main differences are:
>Points are in the 100s with points being awarded for lots of little things (passes, dribbles, crosses, shots on target, tackles etc.).
I quite like this, players like Xhaka who play a lot of passes were big and would consistently give you big points even if they lost

>lots of transfers, 5 a week with unlimited in Intl breaks, transfer values used to change a lot over time but now only get adjusted a little bit when a player is obviously over/under priced

>3 captains with 1.5x points and players with most points are subbed in automatically

In general its more forgiving and more about finding cheap players that play for a week or two that you can then pair with those who will obviously score well. This season it will be harder since 70% of the guaranteed big point players got sold to epl :^)

I also do kickbase which is a great draft system fantasy app also for bundes but this one is most fun with a league of around 8 players (ideally ones you know)

>>150109686
Yeah. I wonder if Sharteta will try Gyokeres and Havertz at the same time.

Right lads, think it's time I started doing some research into this season. We all know I was screwed out of top 10k last season. Used a chip everyweek from 32-37 and somehow finished rank 30k

>>150116728
Maybe Havertz is the big man

>>150116261
Thanks bro. Sounds interesting, bit more room for maneuver than /fpl/ but more things to take account of.
