FPL is live 2020
Welcome to FPL is live 2020/21
It’s time to set your team up, re-join leagues and get tinkering! Although it’s worth noting that the actual Premier League fixtures are still to be released and likely won’t be until after the Champions League and Europa League have completed.
For FPL the biggest change appears to be the deadline changing to 90mins before kick-off – seemingly in an attempt to combat those annoying and often false team leaks.
The Chips have remained the same as has the budget of 100mln.
The biggest changes seem to have come in player prices and in some cases, classification. Some of the more obvious changes at first glance are:
Players now classed as midfielders:
Aubameyang (Arsenal) – price 12.0mln
Greenwood (Man Utd) – price 7.5mln
Rashford (Man Utd) – price 9.5mln
Lundstram (Sheff Utd) – price 5.5mln
Players now classed as forwards:
Richarlison (Everton) – price 8.0mln
Martial (Man Utd) – price 9.0mln
Antonio (West Ham) – price 6.5mln
New players:
Midfielders:
Ziyech (Chelsea) – price 8.0mln
Forwards:
Werner (Chelsea) – price 9.5mln
Good luck with the tinkering and please post your thoughts, comments and plans on the chat below.
Thanks for reading FPL is live 2020/21
Fantasy Football 247 League Codes:
All prizes must be claimed within 30 days of the final GW.
Auto complete United! Obviously FPL don’t look at what team you select as favourite. 3 Everton, 3 United and no Pool!
Haven’t done a team yet but I look forward to stealing people’s ideas. A few players locked into my team already though I think!
Don’t forget to factor in that both Man City & United will miss at least GW1.
Is that confirmed? I thought that only happened if they made the final? I haven’t really been following that story.
They get 30 days off from their last match of this season.
Ah right fair enough! I wasnt sure because I read somewhere that Wolves were complaining that they weren’t getting the days off same as United and City.
I can’t see me affording any more than one from each team anyway so there is the benching option if they are confirmed as missing only GW1.
No Free Hit this year. Only chips are Bench Boost and Triple Captain.
Test
It’s still there, just greyed out as you can’t use that chip in week 1.
Yeah just went into Rules and Free Hit is mentioned Matt.
Don’t tell him. :punish:
I had typed out a response along the lines of
“Matt, come on you’re not a newbie but you’re acting like one you absolute …. ”
I deleted it because it’s sunny in Scotland today, my kids are out the house until tomorrow and FPL is back!
Not greyed out on mine. Was thinking they wouldn’t remove it but I haven’t looked in too much detail at rules in years haha
Come on! How can someone use FH chip in Gw1?—meaningless right? There is no team to roll back in Gw2
Will they let us play 0-10-0 this year? Midfield is packed
It’s crazy in there Robin.
Looks like it could be 4-5-1 this year, lots of value in def
FPL really made it competitive this season. We have to select from the premium players….I guess can’t fit more than 4/15 to have a balanced squad.
I’d like to see someone show me how to include any more! :good:
Depends on whether ManU is considered premium I suppose
Yeah he’s on my watchlist along with Werner – ideally I want Pulisic if fit.
No Liverpool in there puts me off a bit.
Seeing Rashford and Aubameyang in these drafts as midfielders just does not look right at all
Agree, looks odd. Suspect I’ll end up with just one fwd to start :wacko:
Just did a 5 min quick draft. It don’t look bad
No love for Ziyech at 8.0?
Also agree, looks fine
Is Vinagre a starter for Wolves?
Yep Jonny our for 9 months
Thanks for this.
Yep and he’s pretty decent. He’s a bargain
