Le Fee will surely become a much more popular pick now that Ndiaye looks like he’s leaving.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@MaJesTikFF Yeah, it’s a good draft, although it does look a little unbalanced to me. What’s the reasoning behind spending the extra 0.5m on Kinsky when Raya is likely to play every week? Could Kinsky be downgraded and that 0.5m invested elsewhere?

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello @FPL_Zlatan @PitchingBall An hour ago you posted a draft with Tarkowski in. Surely you have some doubts about him? Or do you think you know better than Tuchel?

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello @FPL_Zlatan @PitchingBall So does a player have to make the World Cup squad to be a good FPL pick? If Palmer or Foden were Norwegian, they’d almost certainly be starting. Whether they make England’s squad has very little bearing on how good they are as FPL assets.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello @FPL_Zlatan @PitchingBall David Raya didn’t play a single minute at the World Cup, yet he’s still the most expensive goalkeeper for a reason.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello Palmer, Foden, Maguire and others can all still be great picks. They have just as much chance of performing well as most players. Their biggest drawback is that they’re competing for places in an England squad full of players who are currently in better form.

@FPLGeneral @OfficialFPL Nice

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

Szoboszlai has scored early enough in pre-season that people will hopefully forget about it by the time they’re finalising their drafts.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello Not trying to argue, mate. I was just trying to understand why having to shift funds later doesn’t concern you. I always enjoy hearing other people’s reasoning behind how they build their teams. Just looking to have a positive discussion and understand your thinking.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello But when I make a counterargument, it just falls on deaf ears. Fair enough.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello I was only trying to have a simple conversation about how difficult it is to shift funds to a more expensive attacker, and you couldn’t respond with any counter point. It’s all good, I was just looking for more reasoning to two 4.5m forwards, that’s all.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL_Marcello My team has been a auto-pick team and will be so until a few days before the deadline. I’d be very surprised if you still started with two 4.5m forwards once pre-season is over.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FplMode @FFScout “Must do better” at what? Do you think you need to please the app to give yourself the best chance of a good start? I’d much rather build my own team than have an app tell me who to pick.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL__Fran @BenjyFPL Whoosh

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@FPL__Fran @BenjyFPL That’s 50.0m over budget. He’d be the most expensive player in FPL history.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@LetsTalk_FPL I think FPL is missing a genuine rival to Haaland. In previous seasons, having Salah at a similar price made team selection much more interesting. I like Bruno, but I don’t think he’ll consistently match the output of Haaland or Salah.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

I don’t watch much La Liga, but from what I’ve seen of Vinicius in the Champions League and for Brazil, surely he’d be priced at 10.0m or more if he joined the Premier League? I actually think that would be great for FPL, as it would make team structures much more diverse.

[The Bonus Point FPL @TheBonusPointX]

@Helderfigs Yeah, that’s my thinking as well. I also think it becomes much easier to fit in premium players when you don’t have the extra 3.0m to 5.0m tied up in Haaland. Players like Gabriel and Bruno etc would become very easy picks.
