The most obvious fixture to target, and considering Liverpool’s great fixtures the first 7 GWs, a triple up seems almost essential. Salah, Trent and one of Robbo/Diaz/Nunez 🔒
GW 1 Player Recommendations:
GK 🧤
🔴 Ramsdale (5.0)
Arsenal have very good fixtures and have really impressed in preseason. Should get a good amount of clean sheets in the first 8 GWs, and Ramsdale offers saves and bonus points potential as well. Standout GK pick for me.
First of all, I’d just like to make it clear that this is not a list of who I think will score the most points (that would just mean picking all the premiums), it’s a list of my favourite FPL picks. Value for money is therefore a big consideration, as well as other factors.
🔟 Neco Williams (4.0) 🔴
While we can’t expect a lot of clean sheets from Nottingham Forest, Williams is still a good pick (mainly for the low price tag). For only 4.0m, we get a starting wingback with decent attacking threat. The perfect 5th defender.

5️⃣ Mendy (5.0) 🔵
When the prices were released Mendy seemed like a bargain, with a price tag a whole million lower than last year. However, I don’t believe that Chelsea’s fixtures are great from a defensive point of view and with The Blues’ defence having looked shaky...
Jamie started the season with a 1m GW 1 rank and was still outside the Top 900k after GW 5. A huge 107 points score in GW 9 saw him break inside the Top 100k, where he stayed for the rest of the season.
He did, however, drop to 71k in GW 15 after 2 difficult GWs, before he went on a massive 7 GWs long streak of green arrows, which saw him rise all the way from 71k to 113th.
He went on to triple captain Salah in GW 26 for an 84-pointer, which took him all the way up to 33rd...
📌 Is this the week to FH?
📌 DGWers vs SGWers
📌 Can we trust Man Utd?
📌 Arsenal
📌 Leicester attackers
📌 Foundations
📌 Differentials
📌 Goalkeepers
📌 Free Hit drafts
Whether or not you should play your Free Hit this week is totally team dependent, but I do think this is a good opportunity. 7 teams have a DGW while 3 blank, meaning that this week presents a good chance to jump on DGWers simply for short term
