All the English, Scottish, Wel;sh and Northern Irish Football Leagues have started, and non-league seem to have been back for ages. The Women's leagues start later next month, but in men's football, all that's left in the UK is for the Premier League to return.
And with it Fantasy Premier League!
How are you going to spend your £100 million budget?
Manchester City’s Erling Haaland is again the most expensive player this season, and at £15.0m he's the most expensive in FPL history!
Over 90% of managers selected him in their opening game squad last season, but this season it's currently around half that. So will you be Haaland in or Haaland out?
Do you going for cheaper options in your forward line then splash your cash on your midfield? This season Mo Salah again leads the way in terms of cost on £12.5m with three London based, goalscoring midfielders in Cole Palmer (10.5m), Bukayo Saka (£10.0m) and Son Heung-min (£10.0m) the next most expensive. with the Manchester City pair of Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden just behind on £9.5m each.
Are any defensive must-haves? Liverpool and Arsenal defenders dominate the top price bracket of £6.0 to £7.0m. Are they worth the money? Will any of the new signings in Manchester United's new look defence be worth taking a chance on?
And what's your goalkeeper plan? Chelsea have 4 keepers all costing £4.5m. Who's going to be their starting No.1?
Which of the big money signings coming into the Premier League are going to hit the ground running and light up the league with goals and assists? Might there be a hidden gem in the squads of the newly promoted teams? Do you have a non-negotiable rules you always stick to, such as you never pick players from your biggest rival team? So many questions to consider when selecting your squad.
