Re: Overlooked players
...which is why I'm waiting to see how attitude looks in some pre-season games before throwing Martial into this mix!
I'll also be keeping one eye on the Alonso / Emerson situation at Chelsea...

Re: Overlooked players
Daniel James at utd will be an interesting one. He's super fast and super fit which ole is going to like. His minutes will be numbered though. Wait and see but worth keeping an eye on in pre season.

Re: Overlooked players
Anyone interested in Billy Sharp at Sheffield Utd? He usually starts fast and Sheffield United have an easier start to the season than they could have.

Didn’t SUFC just break their transfer record to bring in a new striker?

Re: Overlooked players
Thoughts on Felipe Anderson?
£7m, 155 points last year - basically identical to Zaha and Milivojevic. West Ham have some tasty opening fixtures (aside from City in GW1) and seems good value. No love for him?

Re: Overlooked players
Him and Antonio have both been in and out of my team so far, but I think I'm settling on Noble at 5m. He's 2m cheaper which allows for a premium defender upgrade and on pens. Works as easy bench fodder for tough games (so GW1) and also I'm still along the thinking that VAR will bring more penalties, so there's some added value there, too.

Re: Overlooked players
I realise MU are a potential car crash, but Rashford (who surely starts under any circumstances) at 8.5m must have potential and is hardly mentioned, whereas Pogba (who may well be gone) gets more attention. Is it the deadzone price point?
Milivojevic, safe boring points and even more chance of pens with VAR?

Re: Overlooked players
Rashford is a bit of a gamble, i'm tempted but ideally would want Pogba to leave to put him on penalties to make it less of a gamble. Also the deadzone price point is an issue as he'd have to share captaincy.raoul wrote: ↑15 Jul 2019, 13:18 I realise MU are a potential car crash, but Rashford (who surely starts under any circumstances) at 8.5m must have potential and is hardly mentioned, whereas Pogba (who may well be gone) gets more attention.

Milivojevic could be less chance of penalties if Zaha goes.

Re: Overlooked players
My view is Rashford is too much more expensive than Giroud, who is in a similar club (ie unknown) and imho a whack better than the competition for that spot.
Having 1 is fine, but both is too risky....

Thoughts on KDB, seems everyone has forgotten him. 9.5 seems like a bargain based on his injury free seasons

Re: Overlooked players
Mason Geeenwood 4.5 could be a set and forgot on your bench as fist sub, as Ole already saying he could start 1st game against Chelsea.
Might even be a starter if can become a regular for them

Re: Overlooked players
he's been my 4.5m bench striker since the start, he'll get minutes this season and starts if he does well, OGS has been speaking very highly of him and if he keeps up the pre season form he'll be on the bench for GW1 at the very least. Can't see another 4.5m striker who could get as much game time.

The stats are dark and full of errors.
Re: Overlooked players
Definitely one to keep an eye on, but I'd still imagine his minutes will be mostly reserved for cup matches. It will be interesting to see how Man Utd's formation settles over pre-season and who plays where - I'd assume a 4231 favours Greenwood more than a 433.Gambit wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 21:32he's been my 4.5m bench striker since the start, he'll get minutes this season and starts if he does well, OGS has been speaking very highly of him and if he keeps up the pre season form he'll be on the bench for GW1 at the very least.

Re: Overlooked players
maybe, but as things stand he looks the best option by far for anybody needing a 4.5m striker in their set up, he'll get plenty of minutes from the bench and he is a very talented youngster, there are virtually no 4.5m strikers so unless something changes Greenwood will be the standout option.Mav3rick wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 21:36Definitely one to keep an eye on, but I'd still imagine his minutes will be mostly reserved for cup matches.

Re: Overlooked players
Greenwood is dead to me for fpl, a few minutes as sub and no back up if injured
The options at 4.5m mid are better

The other Mason, Mount, hasn't been priced and could be FFL's pet project?
Where will Ole play Greenwood and instead of who?

Holding has returned to pre-season, could he be a potential cheapie at 4.5m?

I'd rather take 15 minutes from Greenwood than 90 minutes from any 4.5m mid. It's not even a contest for me.Billy Bongo wrote: ↑18 Jul 2019, 06:03 Greenwood is dead to me for fpl, a few minutes as sub and no back up if injured

Re: Overlooked players
Then he scores a few and the points are on your bench. Then you start him and he gets a rin of 1 points while there are Goals and Ass's laughing at you from your bench and round it goesStevieste wrote: ↑18 Jul 2019, 11:28Agreed finisherFinisher1 wrote: ↑18 Jul 2019, 11:07I'd rather take 15 minutes from Greenwood than 90 minutes from any 4.5m mid.
