I’d also say it’s because every player is so cheaply available this year. Throws money strategy out the window and everyone have the same team.
I mean what were they thinking with some of the prices this year? Martinelli, Rashford, Trippier, Andreas, Ward
Ward: priced when Kasper was still there and if he stayed, 4.0 is correct.
Andreas: think he was still signed to United when the game launched?
Arsenal players are too cheap but no one expected them to be playing this well. Martinelli was a bit part player last year.
Same for United. Rashy hasn't broken 100 points in many seasons. No one expected this form from him.
Trippier is a mistake though, he needed to be priced higher.
The big issue is the premium defenders. Everyone thought you will need two of TAA, Cancelo, Robertson, James, Chilwell... But it turns out, you don't need any of them. That opens up a lot of funds.
Salah being hit and miss also doesn't help.
