I currently don't have either Salah or Son. No doubt it'll change several times before the season starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Also re Salah, I'm still in a mood with him for that double game week at the end of the season where I triple captained him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomav84 Posted July 15, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15, 2022 if ronaldo goes what's everyone's thoughts on rashford? could be a bargain at 6.5m - think he was like 9 or 10 last season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'm strangely tempted by Martial at 7.0m as he's started up top in preseason and whilst last season was poor he still has a 5.9 PPG average.

He's currently in my thinking but I'm not convinced. Would really like to have Buendia in as think he could be fantastic but avoiding as doubt he'll get enough minutes.

maqroll Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Pretty happy with my strikers. Bailey could be great value at 5m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it goes wrong you're immediately playing catch up. If it goes right others can bring in whoever clicked. 50% of your front 6 are differentials, you're not particularly big at the back and you've a fortune on your bench.

Those strikers are locked in starters for elite teams. Maybe a slight risk because 2 are new to the league but it's a risk I'm at ease with. The players on the bench are there due to week 1 matchups. Not sure why their price has anything to do with it. I picked players who I think will get regular starting minutes. Odegaard and Bailey might not achieve those minutes, but they didn't cost a lot. My keepers are good and my defenders will all get starters minutes for top 10 sides. Is there an obvious strategy to this that I'm unaware of?
