Fantasy Premier League 2013/14

Only pick offensive or forward thinking midfielders; irrespective of who they play for or what their surname is.
Pick strikers who will play every game.
Defenders you can skimp on, but go for two or three from the most defensively sound teams. Defensive bargains this season:

£4.5 Luna & Okore (AV) - both will come straight into the starting XI at Villa, I expect them to carry on where they finished last season and be much more settled defensively.
£4.5 Taylor (SWA) - fit again after injury curtailed last season. Will be first choice left back this term.
£5.5 Zabaleta (MCI) - bargain at £5.5m? Guaranteed to play every match for the side with the best defence in the league.

Hmm I dunno the Swans and Vill will prolly conceed more than most teams though which where you'll drop points.

They won't concede more than other teams with £4.5m defenders. They're all underpriced in my opinion, take it how you will but it's where I'm looking to make my squad up.

Bear in mind that sides need to get proper thumped for defenders to lose points, that doesn't happen often and didn't to Villa late season nor to Swansea before the League Cup final.

Anyone put rvp in? No strikers have had a terrific preseason.

 

[bol-uk]

Giroud has had about 8 in 6

 

[Baines' left foot]

I'll sig up later, do it for two weeks and then forget about it

Like I do every year

I always give my team the same name as well, The Toffee Apples

Ha, I do this every year too.

I lost interest when it was introduced that you could change your team at pretty much any point of the season.

If it's the official one, you can make 2 subs every week (more if you take points off) and get 2 wild cards per season.

 

[billy]

anyone else getting on jela?

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Bargains imo are Coleman (classed as defender but will get assists and thus loads of points), Michu (classed as midfielder but scores loads...) ... any more?

 

[Maxwell]

In...

 

[HighFlyer]

Joined. Currently deciding between Deulofeu or Barkley to put in the team. Barkley has done ok pre-season and only 4.5m. Might be worth a punt

 

[Torontoblue]

Think I've finally settled on my squad of 15; thank God for free transfers until the start of the season!

 

[meagher94]

I'm in.

What do you reckon lads, any tweaks?

 

[potato]

made a few changes: zabaleta in, kone in, giroud in, michu in and zaha in

baines out, bale out, weimann out, sterling out and deleufeu out.

 

[Carlito]

Zabaleta - Garrido - Kaboul


Mirallas - Hazard - Walcott - Zaha


Benteke - Soldado - Dzeko​

Subs: Boruc, Coleman, Redmond, Okore
