Rds1983 Posted June 21, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 21, 2021 The games not fully launched yet but they've released the new prices. Might struggle to find bargains from the Villa players this season as there's been some decent price rises. https://www.avfc.co.uk/news/2021/june/FPL-price-reveal-for-2021-22-season/?utm_source=premier-league-website&utm_campaign=website&utm_medium=link Whilst it's good to see the players get some respect it's kinda annoying trying to make a team now.

cyrusr Posted June 22, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2021 They need to change the rules so that I can have Martinez, Grealish, Buendia and Watkins. It is not fair that you can only pick 3 Villa players! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted June 22, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2021 Martinez is pretty expensive now. 5.5 is quite a lot for a keeper. Given our fixtures though, Jack and Watkins will be in my team from day 1 I imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eak94 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Yeah, looks like it's updating right now. Think I'll go with Watkins, and might have to choose one of Jack/Buendia. Martinez a tad too expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted June 22, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2021 I'm struggling to spot any hidden value players from the first glance. Quite a few players have had big price rises and very few have dropped a lot. Pogba at that price could be a steal if he actually played a full season and was motivated. Two very big ifs there though. Watkins at 7.5 and Jack at 8 ain't cheap but might need to get them in. Buendia is very tempting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Done a first draft, will check in again towards the start of the season. Buendia, Fofana and Lampty won't be going anywhere all season for me as it stands. Kane is overpriced, he will really struggle to replicate last seasons points while Salah had a somewhat poor season by his standards and has a much higher ceiling for the same price. They have messed Mane's price up for the 2nd season running, shame that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fofana 4.5 Digne had a price drop to 5.5 Watford keepers could be a good shout, very good defensive record in the Championship last season Toney or Iheanacho up front could be bargains They're probably the standouts that i've noticed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah mane is a non-option based on last season. Also they've moved both Auba and ASM to forwards. I imagine they wanted to add more options to the FWD position. but they've chosen the wrong players. All they've done is made those two a complete no go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm holding off Everton/Spurs players until I know who the manager will be. Toney could be great, but 6.5 seems a lot for a player and team never to have played top flight before. They're usually 6 at most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect it's only the more dedicated players who will have set up teams as the casuals will be holding off or focusing on the Euros and that might be an indication of who to target. Unless like me they'll probably wait until preseason friendlies are underway before getting closer to locking their team down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouUnastanFren Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Blimey, all the expensive players are even more expensive this season. I think I had 4 10m+ players at points last season, I can barely squeeze 2 in now. Should lead to more variance between teams at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I had 4 10m+ players at points last season, I can barely squeeze 2 in now. Should lead to more variance between teams at least. Yeah I much prefer it this way. Although I do think they've messed up with some of the pricing. Sterling is a no go at 11. KDB will be a no go at 12 until he starts to do something (insofar as Salah and Bruno would appear to be must-have). Firmino is once again basically irrelevant at 9.0. Mané at 12 is a bit spicy for me too. Most all of the decent strikers starting at 7.5 instead of 6 like last year has pushed the bar up on everyone else and made it more plausible to go 3-5-2 as a squad structure (although I've still gone 3-4-3) There are some interesting prices as usual. They've even managed to not make a balls of Dallas when they moved him into midfield, unlike Lord Lundstram. 5.5 for an 8 goal 3 assist mid is still not bad. Fofana at 4.5. Conor Coady at 4.5. Leno and DDG/Hendo at 5.0. Raphinha at 6.5. Some bargains to be had. So far I'm incredibly template, and tbh I can't see me changing too far from it. I don't own any Man City or Spurs.

Someone on the fpl pricing team must hate him. 140pts, not even nailed anymore, takes a Liverpool spot and a striker spot, he should be 7.5m maximum. The main problem I'm having is picking which Villa players to have. I think Watkins, Buendia and Grealish are all among the best options in their price bracket and I want some defensive representation, at least at the start.
