First time playing Fantasy Premier League (have only played WC and Euros before) , and I'm really enjoying your content so far. This is my draft atm; Sanchez (Turner) TAA, Gvardiol, Mykalenko (Andersen, Johnson) Saka, Foden, B. Fernandes, Eze (Nkunku) Wood, Watkins, Isak
Some other creators prefer good starting 11 over depth, but idk, you say depth is good and I think I like that, (although I obviously don't know how it plays out during the season loll)
Your bench is too much in euro and wc u can change and sub in bench player but in fpl all bench point are losse so better pick some 4m def and 4.5 mid for bench
@@ejex5470 Thanks for the advice! I'm gonna rethink, then. Thought it was good to have options, but I guess you just transfer them since u get one transfer each match day?
@@ejex5470 So for example, u are saying it's better to swap Nkunku and Andersen for cheaper players and then spend those extra 2 mil to upgrade Fernandes to Palmer? (if I believe him to be a better player then Bruno loll)
@@Ibrasambiliayea its better to make your main team stronger dont waste too much money on bench only one bench for injury is enough u can transfer in every week
I’m struggling to understand everyone being so rigid on owning on of the two premiums, when over the last season or two these 10mil assets have been matching or outperforming the end of season point totals. Going without a salah or haaland makes your team so flexible. And they’re hardly significantly worse captaincy options.
Captaincy AND consistency. Palmer obvs smashed it, but we can’t be as certain he’ll do it year in year out. Whereas Salah is proven to be relentless, even in difficult seasons.
I think the most important point for Salah is his fixtures and being able to compete against Haaland as a standalone cap option. Otherwise, it very well could just be Haaland + another premium. Going without either I'm a little bit less inclined to do.
Hi Fran which option do you like the best? Havertz + Bruno +Gibbs white + Foden Watkins + Ødegaard + Hudson Odoi + Foden Haaland + Rogers + Gibbs white + Eze Gordon and Salah in all three drafts. Thoughts?
Just one minor thing, we do get 3 more FT this season. Since we no longer reset our FT with wildcard and free-hit, we get the tranfers that we used to waste. Only with the course of the season we will know if that has any impact or just a gimmick. As always love your channel and hope to see you Top 1 one day
That's not actually true - if you read the example they give on the website you don't get an additional FT on 2xWC or 1xFH weeks. It's just that you can roll the saved FTs and you're not forced to DE/burn. Thank you though!
@@FPLFran Thank you for correcting me! I must have miss read. I guess for Wildcard it makes sense to not give an extra FT. But for FH i wished they still gave the FT as that gw i am not making permanent tranfers. WIldcarding removes hits, will it give back the FT i had if i decide to wildcard instead of using FT?
Regarding the fplnkunku-draft I don’t quite understand the rating of 9/10 with a team including Jota, which I judging by your cheat sheet video you have some concerns/doubts about, and Hudson-Odoi, which still needs to prove his worth imo. After last season and a poor euro I also think TAA is overrated in this moment in time. Has he really shown that much improvement lately to defend his rather high price tag? I know high risk high reward, but I have a sneaking feeling he has already peaked and many of us are unrealistically hoping that he will perform like he did in 2021/2022 again. Not saying it’s a bad team by any means, and it definitely has some potential if everything goes well, but is it realistic enough to deserve a 9/10?
I think it's because I know he is wildcarding right after it. As opposed to trying to 'persist' with a Jota draft, it's about free0hitting Jota which I'm more comfortable with. Regarding the general point on TAA, I don't see how Trent could possibly be worse than last season, and don't see him overrated at all. He has all the tools and the historic data to show he will be a great pick, and should have good mins now he is fully fit. The last season looks like more of an outlier given the stop-start element of injuries. He has had multiple great seasons where as long he's played great minutes and hasn't shown a general tendency to be injury prone. Feel the same about this season. It's not even high risk high reward to me. I also said the draft concept was a 2/10 because I dislike BB1 -> WC2/3.
@@FPLFran Ok, I didn’t catch that part about the wildcard. That sound like a bit early to me, but what do I know? Regarding TAA, I didn’t think you didn’t considered historic data. Is this something new 😉? Of course he might be able to bounce back from the last season, I’m just not as sure about that as everyone else seems to be. Until he actually delivers I will go with my gut feeling. Then it will be too late of course.
my haaland only draft pretty similar except i got gordan , armstrong , mykalenko and andersen, still cant decide doing that or salah only draft where i basically drop odegard for foden, add in salah no nkunku and havertz in for haaland
My team is henderson/fabianski Gvardiol/trent/saliba harwood bellis/faes on the bench Salah/palmer/saka/semenyo/gibbswhite Jp/isak armstrong on the bench
Really like this draft, no real complaints at all. I don't know if you need 3 preemiums (I include Palmer and Saka) in this. Think you could do with upgrading Semenyo as a result
Ok my team right now... Sanchez Gvardiol, TAA, Burn Salah, Gorden, Nkunku, Rogers Haaland, Isak, Wood Bench - Turner, Konsa, Faes, Winks Plan - to get rid of Haaland after week 2 game to get my bench looking better 💪
@@robinbaggio89Rogers is not only nailed, but he will be playing more centrally, and closer to goal in the support striker position that will be vacated by Diaby. Hardly a trap at 5m, gotta have some budget players somewhere.
Something to monitor is Bournemouth goalkeeping situation. We know that Iraola is not big fan of Neto and same time Mark Travers is nothing special neither. I wonder how big chance there is that their new goalkeeper Alex Paulsen starts? He is 4.0.
Probably something I doubt would happen by the start of the season. I'm sure it's Travers or Paulsen though, you're right Neto seems to just be a complete let down
Pickford TAA,Saliba,yoro Salah,Gordon,nkuku,rashford Zirkzee,isak,Watkins.. Did have Eze and mbuemo at first just don't like the palace v Brentford game first game week

It’s captaincy. If you’re evaluating a premiums value, you need to consider you will captain premiums.

You’ll struggle with your rank also , have no fear
@@fplfredyou have no idea what that means. Stop parroting
Hi Fran which option do you like the best?
Havertz + Bruno +Gibbs white + Foden
Watkins + Ødegaard + Hudson Odoi + Foden
Haaland + Rogers + Gibbs white + Eze
Gordon and Salah in all three drafts. Thoughts?
personally don't love a H+S draft, think it is quite tight on budget. Are you fixed on having Salah?
1 in this case.
Great vid, thanks Fran! I wonder why nobody is picking Tomiyasu though..
way too much depth back.
Zinchenko, Tomiyasu, Timber, Kiwior can all play LB. Even new signing Calafiori might be able to.
@@FPLFran Alright I understand, thanks for the info!
My defenders are guehi, burn, Gabriel, konsa and gilchdist. Who should I start and if they are bad who should I replace them for?
idk about Gilchrist. I don't love him, he can be replaced. All your other defenders are fine mate

makes sense. All of us deciding on H+S only soon :p
My team is
henderson/fabianski
Gvardiol/trent/saliba harwood bellis/faes on the bench
Salah/palmer/saka/semenyo/gibbswhite
Jp/isak armstrong on the bench

Hi fran, why do you think no ones going for a front three of haaland isak and watkins? Ive got them all and still got enough money for palmer
I think it's cos people generally prefer mids and think they will outscore fwds (outside of Haal)
Hi Fran, will you be doing any more draft ratings? If so, where do we send you our teams?
I might do a rating your teams draft stream
Fran you’re the goat. Thanks for your comments on my draft
thank you for sending it in!
The dress is gold and white
Thanks for going easy on me I feel, keep up the great content Fran.
Not going easy at all, best of luck again this sseason!
How do I make a draft, is it on the pl app?
Yes on the pl app and then the fantasy section
yeah, fpl website or pl app.
Are you going to do a live transfer deadline stream for gw 1
Yup!
Ok my team right now...
Sanchez
Gvardiol, TAA, Burn
Salah, Gorden, Nkunku, Rogers
Haaland, Isak, Wood
Bench - Turner, Konsa, Faes, Winks
Plan - to get rid of Haaland after week 2 game to get my bench looking better 💪
Pretty good team. Haaland + Salah, and you even manages to add other premiums in it. Nice
I feel like Rogers is a trap but overall very good!
@@robinbaggio89Rogers is not only nailed, but he will be playing more centrally, and closer to goal in the support striker position that will be vacated by Diaby.
Hardly a trap at 5m, gotta have some budget players somewhere.
@@stonedvillain79 Thanks for the reply. Yeah maybe your right, just my gut feeling. I guess we'll see in a couple of months ✌🏻
Also thought to offload Haaland after gw2. Do you think you need to TC him to maximise this strat?
Flekken,
Burn, Robinson, Andersen
Gordon, Foden, Salah, Son, Huddson odoi
Haaland, Joao Pedro
I think the defense is a little bit too light. I'd prob drop a premium to get a bit of a better rounded team
@@FPLFran thanks 👌
Anyone know why all the FPL youtubers are making the same video type around the same time? Is it just a coincidence lol
hah I think the sad story is we probably all have the same ideas 🤣
“The Thanos Infinity Gauntlet” 😂😂
🤣
Hi Fran, could you rank the 4.5 mio defenders?
will do a cheasheet for that :P I think a lot of it matters in terms of how you plan to rotate using them, not just a ranking 1-7
Who is the best 6.5 midfielder? I’m leaning towards Garnacho
MGB? Good starting fixtures and on pens
MGW, Nkunku, Johnson, and even Bailey interest me a touch more currently
Something to monitor is Bournemouth goalkeeping situation. We know that Iraola is not big fan of Neto and same time Mark Travers is nothing special neither. I wonder how big chance there is that their new goalkeeper Alex Paulsen starts? He is 4.0.

Why is no one considering mateta after how his season ended? Because olise’s gone?
Because he plays in the Olympics and the final is a week before the season starts
mostly olympics - so no pre-season with the team.
even without the olympics there’s just better options in Isak and Watkins if you don’t go Haaland
Ah I see. I could see him still racking up a lot of pts but probably not worth the risk at the beginning when there’s good use of money elsewhere.
@@Larsd69 I managed to get a decent team with all three of them. But I’ll most likely change it then
Pickford
TAA,Saliba,yoro
Salah,Gordon,nkuku,rashford
Zirkzee,isak,Watkins..
Did have Eze and mbuemo at first just don't like the palace v Brentford game first game week
Why Zirkzee so early? Loving the risk factor of him and rashford though
@joshlaybourne4381 just rolling the dice. I just have a feeling because its against Fulham he will get me a return..
gotta agree, think Zirkzee rashford are risks (only in terms of mins) but up to you. Can tell you're a Utd fan :P
have to consider fixtures beyond just ful(h) tho
what do you think of Bailey?
I like him a lot!
22:10 Not owning Haaland is dangerous. LoL
😆
W
no haaland seems like the way to go tbh especially now with kdb leaving
updated reports seem to indicate he's closer to staying
Burn + Eze vs Trent + 4.5 mid?
I think I'd go left but it depends on your rotation plans?
