Joao Cancelo (£7million, 201 points), Andrew Robertson (£7million, 186 points), Virgil van Dijk (£6.5million, 183 points), Joel Matip (£6million, 170 points) and Aymeric Laporte (£6million, 160 points) all got more than that. The top-scoring midfielder in the same price range was £7million Bernardo Silva, who scored 53 (fifty-three!) points fewer with 155. Trent Alexander-Arnold was the top-scoring defender in FPL in 2021-22, finishing with 208 points. Many people pack their defences with several cheap options in order to afford more expensive midfielders and forwards, but the right defender in the £5m/£5.5m range will accumulate far more points than a midfielder of the same value.
Instead, consider picking a couple of your backline from the same (defensively strong) teams, meaning you’re relying on fewer of them to chalk up some 0s.
However, by doing that you’re also reducing your chances of really big scores, given it’s unlikely all your picks’ clubs are going to keep out the opponents on the same weekend. Don’t pick your backline from seven different clubsĪnother common practice is to choose your two goalkeepers and five defenders from seven different clubs, on the basis that you’re increasing your chances of at least one clean sheet bonus. Ideally, you want to pick from two clubs that are at home on different weekends and don’t play too many tough fixtures at the same time.Ģ. If you’re really keen, look into every club’s fixture lists to find the best rotation options – there are plenty of FPL Fixture Difficulty sites out there. You’re going to need some cheaper squad fillers, but rather than filling your bench with duds, spend on two or three cheap defenders you can rotate to maximise your chances of 6+ point hauls. Even the top clubs have plenty of games against their rivals where you wouldn’t necessarily back them to keep a clean sheet, but if you choose the right two keepers from bottom-half or mid-table sides, you’ll almost always go into a weekend fancying at least one of them to keep things on lockdown.Īll of the above also applies to defenders. Away at Manchester City? Put him on the bench.īy doing this, you should give yourself more chances of clean sheet bonuses across the season. At home to a struggling team? Get him in. Instead, pick two £4.5million/£5million goalkeepers to rotate, depending on who and where they’re playing. It’s common for Fantasy players to pick a starting goalkeeper from one of the big clubs and the cheapest back-up possible to keep on the bench.
