Looks pretty good. Personally not sure about your midfield mid-pricers (Wharton/Alvarez/Tielemans) or Stones as a defender. Tielemans i probably have the most confidence in out of those 3 mentioned but there are cheaper options like Smith Rowe & Mavididi that might be worth a look and then you can upgrade Stones. James wont play early due to injury either. It may be worth holding if he doesnt miss too many games but id rather see another cheap defender in his place and then James becomes more of a downgrade option.

Not much rotation at the start of the season given there's no other comps.
Injuries the only reason a player won't start.
If it's long term, trade them out. If it's short term, use the bench.

Anderson to another 4.0 (Barco, Faes) frees 0.5. Rogers to a 4.5 frees up another unit.
Get Porro for Mykolenko. Set and forget. Myko too injury prone too.
Whilst EVE are predictable at home, Palace aren't. Andersen scores slightly better away.
You'll likely be benching the bigger pts, so maybe don't go there.

Eze too injury prone. Lots of 6.5 available. Frees up 0.5 to upgrade Diallo to a 5.5. Lots of options there too.
Thanks for the feedback, that's great

First Timer.... so how do you loop in EPL is it the same as NRL:unsure:
No. You don't get the lowest bench score for taking the VC.
You just get your GK score if looping the GK.
If your benched playing GK scores minus you in fact won't cop it.
You would just get the 0 from the dud.

If you have more than one benched player in another position and one of your on field
players is out you then get the lowest score from those on the bench.

Example. Martinez is out then the lowest PLUS score from Davis and THB would count.

Another one is if you played all defenders, midfielders or forwards in a formation you would cop a donut in that scenerio
if one missed out.

Thxs very much Mate... well explained so that is why Goalie is normally the best option to loop if I see that right
What is normally a looping score... say for example 25 a score to consider 30 plus... very tempting 40+ Hell Yeah:unsure::unsure:

20 for me is a given. Players don't go huge all the time.
25 is a very good score in this. 30 plus is huge.
Your weekly score can be erratic. 150+ on a very good week. Half that if not so good.
Wowwww ok that's something to adjust to... so 80-100 is ok... 100+ is good... what is the norm in scores... say when is it
looking like a bad score:unsure:
