FPL 2026/27 Rate My Team

Welcome to FPL 2026/27 Rate My Team

Hello everyone and welcome to any new joiners for the coming season. We hope you’ve all enjoyed the summer time and some well deserved time off, or well, some time off either way!

A new season is dawning and already just shy of two weeks from now we’ll see Arsenal kick off the season against newly promoted Coventry City on Fri. 21st of August at the Emirates stadium. ‘The battle of set-pieces’ as one could call it; Coventry is probably the only team who have matched the Gunners on net goal difference from set pieces. Alas, that was not in the big boys’ league.

Before then there’s the community shield on Sun 16th where Gunners are facing Manchester City, the highlight of which will likely be their respective starting line-ups (including whether you-know-who might start or follow from a live-stream on a yacht somewhere).

Anyhow. We’ve had to remind ourselves that we are now at the helm of the 2026/27 season. Seasons come and go as they say. As it happens, so do managers. There’s wholesome 9 new EPL managers (11 if we include Carrick and Se Zerbi) and just five of them were in place at the start of the 2024/25 season. And that’s a pain in the… Ahem. That’s not making the expected lineups nor picking a starting team any easier, is what we were saying…
When it comes to our beloved FPL game there’s been a few changes to the game and player positions, we recommend you give it a quick read here. The biggest change is probably that they have added their own price predictor. However, the good news is they’re keeping the chips as they were – one less thing to think about!
The bad news is that the bench boost is then very much still a thing. Oh well. On that note, some seem to be going BB1 (Bloody Bugger off #1) and others seem quite keen on BB2 (Bloody bugger off again!); each with their elaborate reasoning, which, in short, can be summarized as ‘at least I’ve then used that bloody bugger of a chip’.

 

We aim to keep going, and keep going we shall. We suggest you all get started in the comments with helpful observations, recommendations and sharing your teams (or asking for help on your drafts of course). In the meantime we will work on preparing the site team and the season to come.

The new season has also brought a tremendous amount of new signings, including some known characters such as Tonali (5.5 to Spurs), Rogers (7.5 to Chels), Bruno G. (7.0 to Arsenal) and Senesi (6.0 to Spurs); as well as some new players to the EPL such as C. Tzolis (6.5 mid to Arsenal), M. Sangare (5.5 mid to Bees) and Florentino (5.0 mid to Ipswich) to name a few. Unfortunately we’re running out of both space and time and so, if we can find the time, we will try and put some words to the new signings on another day.

 

As ever then please feel free to use the opportunity in the comments below to post as many ‘RATE MY TEAM’ attempts as you wish and to then hopefully also help other members by reciprocating.

Good luck to you all! May you all pick a worse team than us! kiss—

  1. Think I’m just about settled 1.0ITB any standout changes, or little tinker?

    • I like all of it except the triple City. I just think it’s too early to triple any one team.

      • Agree…especially not MC right now. Maybe later.

      • Who goes semenyo or gvardiol and for who?

        • Gvaridol goes for me. Not going to get MC defense until I see some matches. They were terrible in the Community Shield match. Maybe Van hecke. I’ve doubled up on the Spurs defense specifially to bench boost this week Not everyone’s approach but that is where I am now. You can see the team below this post.

    • You could bring in Bruno F and downgrade Wirtz. With the first two MU matches I think it could be dangerous to go without him.
      Like ODT said, MC defense is a shambles. Wouldn’t touch one of them till I see a big improvement.

  2. Final final…..

    maybe….

    pretty sure….

    I need to put it down and take a look tomorrow.

    • Looks fine, don’t leave it too late as the site could go down towards the deadline.

    • Good team!

    • Thank you both! Good luck with your season, may the gods rain green arrows!

    • Like your team and mine has some similarities to yours. I’ve only gone with one Liverpool player and not sure how they will perform. Have gone with three Arsenal, will Havertz play though? My team below.

      • Hi Nigel, looks really good, but agree on Havertz. Toss up between him and Gyökeres as to who starts, I think.

  3. Any love for Wilson in midfield?

    • He did well last season. Going under the radar now.

    • In a better team I believe! Have been looking at him myself, but have put in Ndiaye for the moment. If he plays like he did last year, then we’ll all be missing out on a superb asset! Go for it!

    • I like him, but I think he’s a wait and see for the time being.

    • Thanks Guys – I like him but may not be ready on Day 1

  4. Comments on this team, please…Not sure if Konsa will play GW1, but he’s going to be the cheapest way into the Arsenal defence…

    Click on image to enlarge:

    • Maybe a ‘keep for later’ choice!
      Go for it! smile

  5. Thanks, AJW. May still tinker before ko, though.

  6. Here is my team, haven’t had so much time to read up on things

    Click on image to enlarge:

    • Hi wafflez, for someone who hasn’t don’t much research, that looks pretty good to me! I haven’t seen Andersen in any drafts, so that’s refreshing to see. Sangare is an interesting one as there are two this season: one at Brentford and one at Forest.

      • Thinking of getting Gross instead of Andersson and getting a 4.5 defender instead of Diop.

        • Sounds like a plan. Either way would work. If you’re happy with what you have, stick with your gut good .
