What you’re saying here is that there is no possible upgrades the player could make to the team elsewhere if they had more money - it’s effectively a flawless team, which allows then to waste 13m on a player that they don’t think justifies his price.
That’s obviously nonsense. As I mentioned before, the whole point of FPL is to maximise points based on a limited budget. Salah is the most expensive player in the game. If you don’t think he’s going to score well then it’s illogical to spend the money on him.
Anyway doesn’t really matter, just thought I’d raise it as it’s a helpful to understand FPL in that way. Wasn’t mean as a critique etc.
The only possible upgrade from cheap/mid range to premium would be Patricio to Ederson, but I'm happy with Patricio. Other than that, yea, I was completely happy with my team.
Mendy Robertson Alonso
Hazard Pereyra (decent points recently) Richarlison (quality) Salah
Aguero Wilson Murray (latter two both bringing good points in recently)
Full playing bench and 0.7 in the bank.
The money left over from Salah if I have Mane or Sterling doesn't really allow upgrades anywhere else. There's players that cost more but are sideways points-wise. Lacazette is the most expensive I could afford with Mane, but his point returns aren't that great.
Because of this the changes I make will follow form rather than upgrading. I do think Salah will score well over the season but not always game to game because him and Liverpool aren't in form. As it happened I had the spare cash so got him for my Liverpool cover and got 15 points when I did (promptly followed by a Mane haul the week after making it unnecessary in hindsight, but at no real cost to me other than a free transfer).
Anyway it's the Sterling show at the moment so time for him, I've gone off Murray, and I fancy a bit of Martial, so big changes ahead!
