Yeah but you really need an extra 80 points to justify £4.0m difference between Kane and someone like Wilson, Mitrovic or Maupay. Or maybe even more considering what £4.0m can get you in midfield and especially defense. Which he may well do, considering he’s a 25-goal striker at his best, but 22-23 goals is the least you need to justify price. From the £6.0m to £7.0m bunch there will inevitably be at least one strikers who gets within 40-50 points off Kane at worst but finding that one among all of them is tough.No doubt. People talking like Mitrovic, Ings, Wilson etc are better options due to lower prices, but they’re not. Kane is a cert to plunder loads of goals.
Needless to say, I have him in my team, which means he won’t plunder loads of goals

guyz, is Shaw fit to start against Palace?
Settled on:
Johnstone
Doherty Egan Tierney Robertson
Saint-Maximin Salah Son Soucek
Werner Richarlison
Pope Mitchell Fabio Silva Greenwood
Doherty Egan Tierney Robertson
Saint-Maximin Salah Son Soucek
Werner Richarlison
Pope Mitchell Fabio Silva Greenwood
I'm a bit worried because I really don't want to swap out a 4.5 defender in the first month or so, so I might go with KWP.
I am going all in in that round and using wildcard before 2, always lots of people are panic buying and prices going mental.
@ the moment
McCarthy
TAA-Robertson-Tierney
ASM-Bowen-Saka-Son-Auba(c)
Werner-Wardy
Random GK, Justin, Brewster, Mitchell
I can swap Tierney and Son for Kane and some 4.5 player
or get rid of Bowen and replace Son with Salah
not feeling Havertz
If i get some info about pulisic Pulisic starting then i can get rid of 2 od those 5-6 mln mids nad replace them with Pulisic and ...

Anyone know whether Saka will start for Arsenal? Or will Tierney take his spot at left fullback/wingback?
Would have thought Tierney would be LCB again given Arsenal’s centre-half injuries.
I think he will. Tierney at left center back, and then either Maitland-niles at left wingback or Saka. Saka played right winger in community shield and provided an assists, so might start there again with Bellerin behind him. Im going for Saka. Has end product
Solskjær says he's fit and ready. Will start imo
Ramsdale
TAA Robertson KWP/Taylor
Salah Son Havertz Soucek
Werner Ings Wilson
Planning on getting KDB and Martial in asap for Salah and Ings. Will give Havertz a try for a few weeks, Pulisic and Ziyech other options at that sort of price

After having him in every draft so far I’m thinking of going without Salah.
Given I’m not going to captain him in the first few weeks (though he’s a great option today) taking him out allows a more balanced team - the way the squad is structured as well let’s me get United / City players in easier after the first game week.
Anyone else gone without Salah?

Last few hours of tinkering before we are off!
I questioned someones decision to have 3 Arsenal players... but is Holding not a good shout at 4.5? They've got 2 nice games to start, they've got a bit of a feel good factor, and he's cheap. It is Arsenal, though.. Out of KWP, Holding and Justin, which one would YOU swap out for Davies of Spurs?

Last thoughts on my team please?
Schmeichel - Ryan
TAA Thomas KWP Egan Lamptey
Auba Salah Son SaintMaxi Burke
CalvertLewin Werner Brewster
Never asked before but panicking now.

Thought about Williams but unsure over Shaw.
Furiously scrolling through Twitter and this thread looking for teams to copy.
Who do you have in goal? If you've already got McCarthy I'd get rid of KWP.
Otherwise Holding is only good for the opening fixtures - you'd imagine he won't be in the team once everyone is fit again.
Not sure why I'm agonising over this so much, I'll have a shite start regardless and be using the wildcard by gw3
Other than the red cafe h2h what other red cafe league is there guys?
Bloody nora, yeah Arsenal's fixtures after the first two are deadly! This game is such a cnut...
Richarlison and Soucek or Mitrovic and Traore (+.5m), in the bank
All I was doing yesterday. 0 shame by the way!Furiously scrolling through Twitter and this thread looking for teams to copy.
I feel like not having any Everton players with all their new stars might be a misplay from me. Maybe richarlison for ings?
Need your advice guys.

I've Havertz in aswell but it's a bit of a risk isn't it? Are any of Chelsea's new guys nailed on to start?
Two options.
Most likely is we keep the 3-4-3 we ended last season with, where Tierney starts at LCB. In that formation, Saka could start at LWB or RW. Neither is guaranteed though, it’s hard to have confidence that he’ll start given that he was benched with that formation at the end of last season. Maitland-Niles and Pepe most likely start ahead of him
Otherwise, we could play 4-3-3 with Saka and Willian options at the ‘10’. In that formation, Tierney starts every game at LB and Saka either plays at 10 or on the wings. I think he plays more minutes with that formation but he’s still far from guaranteed.
I’ve picked Saint-Maximin ahead of him.
Saliba is a better choice than Holding, and at the same price.
I’ve gone for:
Pope
TAA/Saliba/Doherty
Aubameyang/KDB/Traore/St Maximin
Werner/Jimenez/Batshuayi
Son in for KDB in GW1.
Let’s see.

Just checking in with the FPL experts here. What happens if I have our players (Man Utd) and City for Gameweek 1? Does it count towards our first game? I have 6 of them in our Gameweek 1 and they will most likely be my mainstay so I don't want to risk too many changes just because they can't play so soon yet.
I've gone for this, not overly happy with but will do for now, i might then "downgrade" Mane to KDB when hes back to free up a little money:
GK: Mccarthy, Pope
Defence: TAA, Egan, Tierney, Cody, Dallas
Midfield: Mane, Traore, Ward Prowse, Pulisic, Lundstrum
Forwards: Ayew, Jiminez, Werner
Im keeping an eye on Rodriguez and Havertz. Just realised I have a lot of Wolves, not overly keen on that
I had Greenwood but after his current antics im not sure he will play and needed more cover for the first week. Will see what happens and maybe bring him in
Any thoughts?

Neither team plays in GW1 so that's a lot of null points.
You'll be on the back foot. Most are planning to slowly introduce United and City players or maybe going with a player or two in the bench Week 1.
Ziyech is injured and they sold Willian so I’d expect him to start on the right even if Mount does start. I don’t think the only 3 training sessions matter too much he’s quality..
I have Martial only, will make no transfer before gw2 as City have Wolves away anyway, then for gw3 will move out Auba for KDB and bring in Greenwood probably, so be up to 3
