How well do they price up this game! As usual, I need 0.5m for my ideal side.

Who can I downgrade out of these, and to who?

Ederson
TAA
Bailly
Lowton
Mane
Sane
Pedro
Mitrovic
Zaha

the others aren't or can't be downgraded.

Stekelenberg
Wan Bissaka
Bennett
Salah
Stephens
Aguero

Sane to Bernardo, easy one.
Pedro to Barkley another easy one or if you are really gambling, for Callum Hudson Odoi.

Mina £5.5m
Bernard £6.0m
Andre Gomes £5.5m

Kovacic £6.0m

Really struggling with my last defender spot. I currently have:

Mendy - Robertson - Cedric - Wan Bissaka

I’ve up to £5.5m to spend and keep going back and forth between Coleman and van Aanholt.

If I knew Cedric would start I’d be tempted to go without Peltier and use the £1.5m spare elsewhere however.

Maybe even do someone like Foster to De Gea with the excess cash.

Exact same scenario LOL
Left it an hour ago with PVA holding the spot !!!!!!
Bailly was in there for a while too
Also went down to 4.5 and brought DDG in at one point

Called it a night till after pressers

Fwiw I have exact same defence and went with Coleman

Paully D

Everton’s additions today have pulled me back towards Coleman.

Mendy - Robertson - Coleman is a very exciting defence to be fair.

I THINK I’m done. 😅

I could have been done 2 weeks ago
I'm almost back where I was !!!!!

However ...........United's clean sheet potential and ownership still scares me
Could still end up chancing Bailly and going for double Everton keeper instead of rotating
That way I avoid owning foster which pleases me

Ings added at 5.5m

Is this happening, and going to be a thing for another season?

Why wouldn't Cedric start?

When fit and not being rested in DGWs, he's been nailed on since he joined the club in 2015.

I'm STILL waiting, (for the last 18 months), and will welcome any stats that suggests otherwise
-Not aimed at you @Paully, I can't remember who was picking a barny with me about Cedric's nailed-on-ednesss.:D:D

However points returns is not to be expected.
As a saints fan I'm fearing another leaky season at the back.

The President of the Cedric Fan Club.

Not sure if serious
But
He returned late for preseason due to WC
And then
Missed his expected return date due to illness..........
So he has played no preseason

But I still have him for now !

Shineon, I've missed your pro Cedric rants in the off season :pac:

Tis great to be back lads

Porthallian

PEA and B.Silva
or
Lacazette and Mahrez?

Oh, I'm clearly not paying attention.:D:D

Thought it was just another swipe at Cedric's risk of rotation or losing his place.

My apologies, back under my rock I go.

kilburn

Defensive headache Holebas or Peltier?

Have Robertson, Mendy, Wan & David Luiz

Actually starting to get concerned with Luiz also but they should be good for clean sheets.

I got a taxi with an Algerian driver earlier who didn't think Mahrez would have a good season, big fish small pond. if that's not a sign I don't know what is :pac:

We all assumed he would not have a hope in hell of playing this week or maybe next after that so he left our teams despite being the standout 4.5ml option imo
But then
@_FPLtips: Mark Hughes talks up including Cedric (4.5) against Burnley: "If he has to go in straightaway and I feel that is the right thing for the team then that’s what I will do."

Sure while I'm at and trying to wrongly settle scores.

I'm offering a roll over on this douzey from last season;

Islander13 wrote: »

Oh and Ederson will produce c. 5 assists this season with those Rangy passes.

shineon23 wrote: »

Ah now.

I'll eat my hat if any goalkeeper gets 5 assists this season.

I'll even consider eating the peak if all the goalkeepers in the league combined clock up 5 assists between. :pac:

Taking Joe Hart's 1 assist last season into account.

I'll eat the peak of my hat if there are 4 more assists from goal keepers this season.

And if Ederson or any GK clocks up 5 by themselves, I'll eat the whole thing.

I might just leave him there and hope for the best that one of 4.0 bench fodder chaps play.

Although at 4.5 I like the look of Charlie Daniels
& Schlupp if Schlupp looks like playing in MF.

If I could thank this post multiple times I would

I have this affinity for Mahrez since the 15/16 season when I proudly had him in from GW1.

Think I'll roll with Bilva for a few weeks

McBain11

You're on fire Shineon

Tbf on Ederson, I can see where Islander was coming from. Edersons passing range is unreal. To think any keeper would get more than possibly one assist a season though is a big stretch, let alone 5!

Gus Ivey

Willian v Sigurdsson? 7.5m each

Willian playing well for a good team

Siggy not great last season

That will likely be the bulk of my contributions for the season.

Haven't been following any preseason and can't see me getting too into playing it this year at all.

I'll do an odd transfer just to present the integrity of my private league, my sole purpose in that last season was to play mind games to try p1$$ my 'friends' off.
By reminding them that although I'm a little bit better than them, in the grand scheme of things I'm very average overall.
It doesn't go down well with them.

Willian not guaranteed to start for the first few weeks. Absolutely avoid unless you know something Chelsea fans don't.

Trimm Trabb

Does Bernard who signed for Everton play on the left?

A threat to Richardilson?

-=al=-

He does play in the same position but I wouldn’t say a threat.

They will most likely be the attacking mids on the left or right.

More a threat to Walcott, who Silva doesn’t seem to fancy. He only played 60 minutes during pre-season and they are rumored to have fallen out.
