Mesmerised is the kid for this. He is very good at it apparently.

If elliot Anderson gets a start for forest he's a snip
at 4.5 million.

Livramento at Newcastle at 4.5 if Trippier goes.

Makes it easier if you find 3 or 4 cheapies that play
then you can invest in guaranteed points scorers.

15 million for haaland, tough decision this year.

Goalies

Raya 5.5       
Pickford 5.0   

Defenders


Saliba 6.0   
Alexander-Arnold 7.0       
Gvardiol 6.0
Livramento 4.5   
Schär 5.5

Midfielders

Ødegaard 8.5

Hee Chan 6.5

Strikers

Watkins 9.0
Muniz 6.0       
Isak 8.5


That's my start point, but likely
to change a few times.

I think I've overspent on defenders, so
that needs review.

Hudson-Odoi over Anderson and Wood over Muniz for me, need those NF players for weeks 1 2 3 5 and 6

Hudson odoi could be in, but I can't afford him
without freeing up some cash from my defence.

Wood is a possible, depending on pre season games.
and injuries.

The cash is tight this year.

Defenders didn't do great last season and the bonus
points have been altered to further benefit attacking
players, and I'm likely going 3,4,3 or 3,5,2 most weeks
so don't need 5 defenders, one will go for a cheap
stock player.

Looks OK.

Finding Foden and Palmer early last season was key
as it let's you spend more elsewhere. And increases
value of squad as you evolve.

Haaland is expensive, but if you are captaining him
then you are getting £115 million worth of players
as opposed to a n other at £10 million as captain
giving you a £110 million squad.

It's quite a decision.

I can’t be bothered typing mine out and can’t see a way to c+p it. Not gone with Haaland but have put Salah in. My team looks a bit poor but will change it around a bit.

Are any of you in the Footy Forum league?

Did they? I’ve been in one from this forum for years. I don’t even think most of the participants even post on here any more. The leagues just auto renew I think if the founder of the league enters a team.

Hello,

For the 2024/25 Fantasy Premier League why don't you join my mini-league "Betfair Footy Forum."?

Joining the league couldn't be easier. Simply use the link below and you'll be added automatically after you've entered the game.

https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/auto-join/c77j8x

League Code: c77j8x


There’s a league if any of you want to join another one?
Looking forward to playing against you this season!

I really like all the comps generally, Ten To Follow and such like but I've never entered the official Premier Fantasy league before because of all the gimmicky stuff, wildcards bench boost etc,that's all BS in my opinion but I see a lot of that stuff is only used once so you can sort of not bother paying too much attention to it, so I am trying hard to push myself to be ar5ed to join in.

Why can't it be a simple shoestring budget and only two players allowed per prem team and that's it.

I'm a miserable grouchLaughLaugh

I used to do telegraph fantasy back in the day.

24 transfers in a season, 11 man team.

Then it started getting more complicated, and I stopped.
also folk were multi entering 20,30,100 teams at £2 a pop.

It's free to enter, but, Duffy, I'm afraid that
the use of chips is vital.

But it's still a good fun competition

There will be 10-11 million teams entered

Top million is a decent effort!

When: 29 Jul 24 03:55
Yeah I used to do the Telegraph one, 30 years ago, wasn't it the original, have been doing the Sun one for the last few years but that is too much the other way, too simplistic where everyone can end up with a team full of City players come the end of the season with no limit on players from any one team.

The ‘mystery chip’ is a new boost. The third one used to be that you could swap your whole team for one week only. Your team would then revert back after the week was completed. That was handy to use when there was only five matches played one week.
For the newbies I wouldn’t waste your triple captain boost early. In the latter part of the season there will be two games during some weeks. Use it then to maximise the points.

As well as Watkins did last year he wasn't on pens.  Douglas Luiz was and he's gone.  I suspect Watkins is now on pens

You can find injury news and tips at Fantasy Football Scout.  I didn't use that for our Euros comp though kenbo, but if you are going to play the season long game (seriously) then I'd advise using it.  It'll save you a lot of time.  Season long games (with transfers) are not for me.  You've got to be very dedicated to do it week in week out.
By:
CLYDEBANK29
When: 29 Jul 24 06:43
I have an account with Zweeler who run a small no transfer money version (pick a 26 man squad)  Obviously you need to be lucky with injuries with that.  I entered last year and definitely wasn't!

Hi guys
I was the one who set up a league last season
sorry to say I am getting slower & slower out of the blocks, takes me a long time fastening the shoelaces these days

So well done Kenbo taking the initiative
I will join your league if thats Ok

The system appears to automatically create a league copied from last season as soon as previous administrator enters a team
so any previous players will also see last years league also included "Napsters Premier League"?
feel free to continue or delete as you wish
any newcomers are welcome to join, dont think any advantages or disadvantages

League Code: 0phwnz          (That is a Zero at the front)


There is also a Head to Head League – “Napsters Premier League Hd2Hd”
but you will need to apply to join that League, details required are

Simply Type in League code: e7sf5e

Apologies for my lateness Kenbo BlushBlushCool

hope that helps

There were so many injuries last season it made
transfers way too regular.

This season you can carry forward up to 5 transfers.

Last season I tried to play with 12 man squad and
3 cheapies who wouldn't play... Disaster!!!

I was 125k 2 years ago and 1,800,000 last season.

My best in telegraph was 8th!,but had 2 teams that year.

There would’ve been no qualms had you used it, CB29. We’ve all got the internet at our fingertips and there’s plenty of tips available everywhere.

Nice one, Stew. Maybe we can use this thread for a few ideas between us or even better, mocking the poor performers!
