Anyone doing this, this season?
I have made a team (which I do roughly once every five years or so!).
I have enough cash to either do Son and Jesus. Or Haaland and Maddison or maybe Coutinho... 🤔
Is Son the safer bet or could Haaland score so many you've got to put him in (even although he plays for Man City)?

I went for neither in the end! Dropped Son to free up some cash as it looks like attacking defenders out score midfielders anyway.
So the season's starting line up is:-
1. Ederson (5.5) 2. Alexander-Arnold (7.5) 3. Roberson (7) 4. James (6) 5. Cancelo (7) 6. Gabriel (5) 7. Salah (13) 8. Mount (8) 9. Martinelli (6) 10 Coutinho (7) 11 Jesus (8)

To give us an idea, how much is the budget and how much, for example, did Jesus and James (Reece?) cost?

The tricky part is spreading the total budget of £100m over 15 players. I've gone top heavy on the defenders and my starting line up, so if I have any injuries or Jesus does nothing at Arsenal I'll be stuffed! Should have put a link:- fantasy.premierleague.com

I'm in. MENDY van DIJK DIAS CHILWELL TIERNEY SON DE BRUYNE (vc) RICE KOVACIC KANE (c) UNDAV (I've been looking forward to his arrival in the EPL) * FORSTER VESTERGAARD PARTEY INGS Good team! I had Dias in before dropping Son to accommodate a more expensive defence. Put Robertson in and had to take Luis Diaz out my midfield. Possibly a bad move... Anyway, you done well managing to accommodate Kane, Son and De Bruyne!

Anyway, you done well managing to accommodate Kane, Son and De Bruyne! I was surprised to see Son classed as a midfielder. It allowed me to take a chance on Undav of Brighton who I think will excite us this season. I'll have to work out what that 'bench boost' and 'triple captain' stuff is all about but I'm happy for now. Good luck!

There's news on Tierney, a 50-75% chance of playing on Friday. Late fitness test. Thought about replacing him with Vestergaard but going with 3 forwards instead, adding Ings to the attack. 3-4-3.

You can make as many transfers as you want before it starts so you could replace Tierney then put him back in. One free transfer per week after the season kicks off. I was thinking about Ings as well - could be a good return if he has a good season. My sub strikers are Solanke and Broja, so I'm going to be in trouble if Jesus doesn't save me...

Overall points 28 Overall rank 6,500,479 Total players 8,362,950 Gameweek points 28
Yeah, well, Tottenham go on the rampage and score 4 and Son (5) & Kane (4) pot me just 9 points between them. Neither scored so who knows where the points came from. Son got 1 assist, that's all I know. Useless.

Anyway I've bitten the bullet already, pulled in the transfers wildcard and started chasing the ghosts of this week's big scorers by bringing Haaland & Nunez in. Think they're going to score so heavily had to get them in. Major sacrifices in midfield and taking Robbo out the defence.

Tips for week 2:- www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62512369Kane out, Haaland in? Salah or Haaland for captain? (Whomever I choose you can guarantee will draw a blank and the other guy score a hat full...)

Kovacic' injury forces his removal from the team and in comes Milner.
Overall position : 6,541,680, about 40,000 places worse off than last week. More players have joined, though, making this a proper rotter of a mountain. Hopefully Milner will bring some decent climbing gear.

So I took Jesus out after week 1 and put Nunez in. What happens in week 2?
Jesus scores a double, makes an assist, is pretty much player of the week. Nunez then gets sent off! This is why I HATE fantasy football 😂

Alisson
Dalot Alexander-Arnold Cancelo Reece James
Luis Diaz De Bruyne (V.C) Neto Martinelli
Jesus Haaland (C)
Subs: Areola Vestergaard Mateta Andreas Pereira
Gameweek 1 = 57pts Gameweek 2 = 86pts Overall rank = 856,492
After a decent second week points total, decided to make a few transfers at a cost of 16pts.
The conclusion made that the bench needed better quality of depth at the expense of goalkeeping position.
So out with Allison and Areola and in with Ward and Turner.
Dalot, Vestagaard, Pereira and Mateta also bite the dust and in with Neco Williams, Awoniyi and Goncalo Guedes (I'm hoping that Wolves superb addition of Sporting Clube de Portugal midfield dynamo Matheus Nunes will hopefully see both Guedes and Neto being slipped through on goal on a more regular basis than currently has been the case.)

That's a great week 2 total 👍 (A pitiful 51 for me...) Do you know about the transfers wildcard? You can make as many changes as you want in a game week without losing points.

Yeah, I'm aware of it but with a few weeks left in the transfer window to go, waiting to see if anyone of interest comes into the league that will use the wildcard on.
