Thoughts on yesterday’s news (1/2):

Sancho 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿:

I won’t be starting with him, want to see how he integrates into the side as my gut feeling (at the moment, this may change) tells me he doesn’t hit the ground running.

I expect him to be priced at £9.5M and it’s..

#FPL #Sancho
too high a price for me to justify facilitating him with a plethora of other well established midfield options.

Nuno 🇵🇹 -

The Doherty revival is now certainly a viable prospect. However before choosing him I want to see an improvement in Spurs’s individual CB performances...
and arguably more importantly a better defensive structure off the ball, specifically against the 4-2-3-1.
Benitez 🇪🇸 -

I expect a more defensive approach than under Ancelotti.

With none of the CB’s being priced above £5.0M we could find some potential bargains there.

Digne could become an unbelievable option as I have a feeling Everton will struggle when going forward and...
given Digne’s set piece monopoly + Everton’s reliance on his open play delivery to DCL; there will be multiple avenues consistently to return every game.

Everton’s potential over-reliance on him could work in managers favours.

Before I start I’d like to say, this team and the reasoning are all based on my assumptions. As we have seen there have been many upsets and anything can happen.

This playing style has worked well for me (14k 🌍 OR), so I will continue to persist with it.

Now onto the thread...
England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿:

4 games into a major tournament and not a single one conceded, extremely impressive.

The “pragmatic” approach Southgate is employing is proving very beneficial for fantasy managers. I expect the same against Ukraine, he may revert to a 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 but as seen....

This would be my England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 line up for tonight. (Thread)

Quick analysis (and general thoughts) as to why and I expect many people will disagree especially about the midfield so if you do please let me know why:

#EURO2020 #ENGGER Image
I start by saying I have a lot of respect for Southgate as a manager, I’m not necessarily criticising him as I’m not in a place to do so, but the 3-4-3 system for me at least is very necessary to win tonight.
The system (3-4-3):

Two reasons for this:

1. Stop the German overload on the flanks when they are in possession and go 3-2-5. With a 4-3-3 they would simply play around it with the wing-backs. Likely a similar result and performance to the Portugal vs Germany game with 4-3-3.

Kimpembe + Lloris🇫🇷-

Simple choices for me

Apart from Varane they are the only nailed French defensive assets, Kimpembe at €5.6M is the cheapest + I mainly want full backs for defenders hence Lloris> Varane

🇨🇭 followed by 🇭🇷/ 🇪🇸 shouldn’t be the hardest defensive challenge..
therefore it allows me to triple up without using transfers for the QF.

Of course this is based on the assumption that they win, however I think 🇭🇷 or 🇪🇸 should be comfortable and if they nullify Shaqiri by crowding out the midfield they won’t concede too many chances.

Tactical weakness - England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 team:

I start by saying I have massive respect for Southgate, been a brilliant ambassador for what the country represents and seems like a very likeable man

However I think this lineup highlights a tactical weakness:

1: Missing...

#ThreeLions
Players in the half spaces -

If the Czech 🇨🇿 set up in a low block, which I expect them to do considering they need a point to top the group, the same problem that occurred against 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 will arise.

Lack of numbers in the half spaces won’t allow any centre backs to be drawn... Image
hence the runners in Sterling (and Saka to an extent) become highly ineffective.

2. Kalvin Phillips playing as an advanced No 8.

Whilst he’s individually been good the role isn’t made for him. The role requires better ball progression and progressive passing, Bellingham.... Image

Lukaku 🇧🇪 -

A brace against Russia was just the cherry on the cake.

He was involved as always and looked a serious threat.

Denmark without their talisman (I want to specify I wish him and his family the best), will struggle to play out of the Belgian press.

= chances.
Kane 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 -

In my opinion the best striker in the world with world class creativity behind him.

Scotland can’t play too cautiously, they need a result, once England get one the floodgates could very well open.

Below average first game but I expect him to come back as he does.

No chip approach for BGW18 and DGW19;
(2nd wildcard exempt, unless purely using it to accommodate, 1 or 2 of these GWs).
#FPL #FPLCommunity @OfficialFPL
THREAD:
Firstly, let’s look at the chip which has been discussed the most within the FPL community, the free hit.
The free hit has the potential to single-handedly swing an individual’s season for the positive, due to potentially having 22 games played for your team, including differentials with favourable fixtures for the particular GW. Let’s first take a look at BGW18. The free hit is....
something which you want to use to aggressively, hence in a DGW rather than BGW, that is my first problem with using it in BGW18. Secondly, the fixtures in BGW18 aren’t to appealing to me for two reasons; unpredictability of results and the lack of “high ceiling”..
