Fantasy Premier League 2016-17 Pre-Season Round up
Hellllllooooooooo FPL’ers! We’re back. It is that time of the year again when we begin to look ahead to how our 20 Premier League teams are preparing for this the most potentially cash-laden, superstar-fuelled, world class manager-jewelled season in history.
FPL will again afford us the chance to back our favourite players (which is of course price-dependent – but that’s for another article) but we need to know that they will be playing in a position worth having them, that they are in form, and more exciting perhaps, where the next bargain of the ‘Alli, Mahrez, Payet, Vardy’ ilk are to be found.
And so to assist us along the way this article is intended as a pre-season scrap book where we intend to record all teams pre-season fixtures and will include where possible all salient information as to who is scoring, who is assisting and who is looking hot and who isn’t.
I will do my best to get all information posted as swiftly as possible but it will all eventually appear here. I would appeal to you to follow my example and in the format of previous seasons assist me by including team news with substitutions, team formation information, goal scoring and assisting records and any other information FPL-relevant.
The main new addition here is that this article is linked in with the HOT COMMENTS section that appears above the Latest Comments. Basically we have created a comment link for each team. Simply scroll to the Hot Comments for the team you require info on and it’ll take you to their section and we will have all their pre-season info in one place courtesy of our fantastic community members.
The purpose of this is so that –
1. There is a specific place to post relevant pre-season info for each team –
Please post any findings – line-ups, signings, team news, match reports, etc…
2. It’s easy to find all the info.
Need to know the pre-season line-ups for Arsenal? Easy, just click on their link in Hot Comments and you will come to their hub.

Callum Wilson again, ladies and gentlemen . . . .
Morning and thanks GP, looks like Wilson has quickly rediscovered his touch – those fixtures though……tough one.
Absolutely Cookie but he was lit last year before his injury wasn’t he?
GP – “lit” ? Is this some sort of new-age slang spoken by the sort of people who search for Pokemon?
Yah bruh.
Check twitter – I tagged you in that Minnesota OG.
😯
So GP, is “lit” the same as “sick” ?
I just seen that OG!! What the hell happened there, sticky gloves are supposed to help catch the ball haha

Thanks GeePee, you f-ing lifesaver.
Hope you had an awesome day at the stadium today.
By the way, know little about the Scottish football just that the Rangers were set back to the third division or whatever? How do things stand now? Will they be in the Scottisch Premier League again soon?
Thanks Raz
Yeah we are back in the Premier League this season which begins next Saturday. Weren’t allowed to enter the Premier League once our previous holding company were liquidated (league rules) so we had to apply to the Scottish League (separate from the Premier League at that time) for a place and were admitted to the third division. We have since won all the leagues and are now back with the *ahem* big boys.
I enjoyed today’s game – result meant nothing – bit if that is a Championship team doing that to us then the gap between England and Scotland is way bigger than I thought and I was already sure it was huge!

A friendly not on the schedule!
Jablonec 0-1 Everton
Goal : Galloway
Assist : Cleverley
Everton ramped up their pre-season preparations with a game against Czech side FK Jablonec, this afternoon in Austria. After a calm if dominant first half, Everton went ahead through Brendan Galloway off a Cleverley corner headed on by Mason Holgate.
The squad will be short a number of stars who are still on international leave after their efforts at the Euro2016 and the Copa America, missing this first run-out under new boss Ronald Koeman.
Everton (First Half): Robles; Holgate, Gibson, Galloway, Baines; Davies Besic, Lennon; Mirallas, Dowell, Rodriguez.
Everton (Second-Half): Stekelenburg; Jones, Holgate, Galloway, Garbutt; Deulofeu, Grant, Cleverley, Oviedo; Niasse, Henen.

Nice one Init.
Hopefully young Tom manages to impress the new gaffer 😉
He’s a decent player actually when you watch him. Not sure why he’s become such a joke figure in all honesty. You don’t get into a Fergie team at that age if you haven’t got something about you.
You can blame Cookie for that!!
Love Young Tom – he was part of the team that put 8 past Arsenal.

Thanks Matt. I didn’t think Barkley had got 2. FotMob had it wrong. Still, a goal and an assist in 45 mins, promising.
No problem I was thinking he didn’t get 2 as well. It’s promising but you do have to take the level of the opponent into mind.
You guys still have Lennon? :say-what:
I understand the nature of pre-season friendlies Matt
Lennon was one of our better players last season…
haha I know just making sure you Blues don’t get too carried away
That was our cup final.
hahah
Who played up top for Everton?
According to their site it was Mirallas in the first half and McGeady when he came on.
Cheers Matt
Keeping an eye on Mirallas and Deulofeu.. glad to see they both did well.
