Well he’s not lightning up the Euros so I’m not betting on him being in great form from gw1.
He's playing right wing and has never really produced for Portugal.

Cavani and richarlison I've gotAnyone else finding it hard to fit in premium strikers, I think the whole country will be relying on Pukki and Toney..
Smashed it at championship. People hoping he can bring that form to premier League. Also on pens.What's this Toney fella about? Why should I own him?
Fair enough, I hope I’m proved wrong. Just won’t have him in my team from the get-go.He's playing right wing and has never really produced for Portugal.

There were spells last season where he didn't score... I think he'll be on though.Just seen a compilation of all his goals last season. Sweet lord, the level of defending is on another planet He'll be the hipsterforward this year
No he's not! Bernardo Silva plays RW for Portugal. He played both games in the AM role.He's playing right wing and has never really produced for Portugal.

He did come on as a sub with 20 minutes to go and replaced Bernardo Silva last night and played on the right. But he played from the start in both games in the AM role.Looked like he was playing right of the three in midfield last night, he was chasing the winger and generally looking shit and out of position.
Pretty sure Portugal don't play with a number 10.

Silva Fernandes JotaThat was the line-up and he was garbage in both games. Mourinho called him invisible in each game.
Ronaldo
Is that along with Kane?Cavani and richarlison I've got
Draft 1 looks a safer bet to me. Both look good though. One player I reckon you could upgrade would be DCL. He is so streaky and reckon will struggle this season.Got my first and second draft. Small changes. Any advice?
Draft 1:
Sanchez
TAA, Dias, Coufal
Salah, Bruno, Buendia, Raphinha
DCL, Iheanacho, Toney
Subs: Foster, White, Fofana, Bissouma
Draft 2:
Sanchez
TAA, Shaw, Digne
Salah, Bruno, Buendia, Raphinha
DCL, Iheanacho, Toney
Subs: Foster, White, Fofana, Bissouma
Draft 2 on paper looks better but my issues with it are:
- Shaw may be rested after bringing football home
- Everton have new manager and also they concede a lot so is Digne worth it?
- Man City had the best defense last year and Dias is as nailed as they get in that team.
- Draft 1 gives me more flexibility as the funds are spread better in defense.
Thoughts?
I agree with DCL but those Everton fixtures at the start are great and then he's an easy downgrade to most mid price strikers like Antonio or Bamford.Draft 1 looks a safer bet to me.

Yes. Towards the back end of the season, he just kept getting 2 pointers.To all Shaw pickers, note that we had a terrible defence last year and it really was only our attacking play which bailed us out. Shaw will have excellent attacking returns I agree.
However, unless we get the defence sorted, sure Shaw will be less attractive to me because he won't get clean sheet points. So I've put him in reserve and to watch list

Didn't even consider the Benitez facht. Might have to reconsider...I'm not sure they're as great as they look tbh. Southampton home is obviously a good start but Leeds and Brighton away don't scream goals to me. Also Benitez being in charge is a step backwards in terms of attacking output from Ancelloti surely? I'm gonna stay away from Everton early doors I think. Currently on a Watkins, Antonio and Iheanacho front 3 but eyeing up Cavani too.
I guess people are working on the assumption that we bring in a CB and/or a DM. Sancho should also mean we pin teams down more, increasing Shaw's chances of assist/score bonuses and decreasing how much time we spend defending as a team (meaning in theory we should concede less). Early indications point to us being a more rounded and balanced team next year, with Shaw likely one of our best performers. At 5.5, he's a no brainer for me.To all Shaw pickers, note that we had a terrible defence last year and it really was only our attacking play which bailed us out.

Cavani, Dlc and Watkins for me. But seems weird going in season without Kane.....i do hope that he will not go to City. Then i will need to change half of teamCavani and richarlison I've got

Dubravka |

Salah |
Buendía |
Soucek |

Bamford |

Calvert-Lewin |
Meslier |
Mitchell |

Lamptey |
Kane is just too expensive (while he is at Spurs under Santo). For me it was Cavani/Dlc/Raphinha or Kane, Pukki and Bissouma. So 3 players who WILL deliver often or superstar with two players who just add depth (more or less).
How are We going to do that because I am in the same position with Kane.. If he goes to City then they will score endless goals.. But i have Stones for now so am happy
Given he didn’t bring it home, does he still get a rest?Got my first and second draft. Small changes. Any advice?

I think Shaw may get a rest, you are correct, which is why I'm having a Brighton defender on the bench, who have decent fixtures at the start.Given he didn’t bring it home, does he still get a rest?
Looking at those teams, looks like its a bit harder this season?
What's the draft ?
Tried it for the first time last season. Enjoyed it as I did it with 3 of my friends.
It’s basically like a proper draft system where only one team can have each player. So only one of us can have Bruno, one of us can get Salah etc etc.
What about a redcafe FPL draft? Would make sense for those that frequent this group who are interested.Tried it for the first time last season. Enjoyed it as I did it with 3 of my friends.

I'd be up for that.What about a redcafe FPL draft? Would make sense for those that frequent this group who are interested.
You need to set a date/time and all be on OR make picks beforehand (and if not on, draft will select your top remaining pick) OR not do any picks and draft will pick 'best' remaining player (in its mind)What about a redcafe FPL draft?

9.0 or 9.5What do we think Sancho's price would be if he joins a Premier League club?
