FPL 2024/25 MY FIRST DRAFT TEAM GW1! | Fantasy Premier League New Season Team Selection

[@williamloughlin2234]

Haven’t seen Trent get much of a mention, set pieces and the easy fixture run in. Surely a good shout?

[@Nikhil_SuperSaiyan]

Palmer.... I have got an tinkle... During Euros, whenever Palmer came on, it was always like something is going to happen... He is going to be Talisman for Chelsea this season too

[@kingaaryan4562]

No shit he’s their best player

[@donthitvapes]

well he did carry chelsea last season

[@MissNoopy]

Thank you ☺️ Please do a No-Haaland draft involving Salah, Dan 🙏❤️

Coming tomorrow!

[@dragons321]

I need one with no haaland as well as in my friends FPL we have two rules. 1-No haaland 2-At least 1 Ipswich player I'm just gonna try and find a good Ipswich player despite never watching the prem

[@MissNoopy]

@@dragons321 I'm no expert but I'm local and I believe Broadhead (left wing) is quite good, and Conor Chaplin (2nd striker) ☺️⚽️

[@FootyRevolutionHQ]

Cole Palmer 🥶 1st name..... Not even a doubt

[@livij6017]

He plays City in his first game.

[@norhelmyandrahman5007]

​@@livij6017 he play in Home.. last time Palmer get hatrics Vs Man City

[@lewisastle9674]

@@norhelmyandrahman5007 No he didn't. That was against United

[@matthewvear7955]

First name on the team sheet, Saka... bonus points for shots on target and being fouled makes him (and Foden) almost essential.

[@FPLMate]

Agreed!

[@sanfordhipsh8508]

Nice starting point with a Haaland squad. We all start somewhere. Glad you are back with FPL, & thanks again for the Euros videos as well.

[@-im1974]

Poor bench/no cash itb. Not loving it tbh

[@kyal]

Nice to see my goat from last season getting some recognition - antonee Robinson!!

[@pompeymike83]

Key takeaway from this is that Isaak is edging Dan 😂😂😂

[@likhil6603]

I just wanted to start FPL. I would really appreciate if you make a full guide on how FPL works and its rules just as you did for euros. I am trying to find a video in yt, but all of them are too old. Please make an updated guide

[@Uzairh_9]

Watch @FPL Focal’s video from last year it’s basically the same as this season. The video is really helpful.

[@lestompkins3529]

Watch FPL Harry's second video for this seasons guide#

[@nezkeys79]

Watkins + Wood + Muniz ain't that bad tbh in a no Haaland draft, but Havertz is tempting there as well.

[@dreddj]

Watkins! #1 on the Team Sheet!

[@FPLMate]

Nice choice!

[@michaelnorthcote3194]

Palace fan here. I would go for Munoz ahead of Andersen. Munoz will get goals and assists and will be worth the extra money.

[@George.K.P]

Defender's prices are soo high this year

[@axels9179]

not really, plenty of playing defenders for top 6 teams for only 4,5. and plenty of playing defenders from promoted teams to be bench fodders for just 4,0

[@AllrightNOR]

Some are expensive, but There are plenty of good prices too.

[@King_Raii]

Erling Haaland 🧘‍♂️... 1st PICK

[@danieleklund1963]

Bold move, not including Ollie W. Love your channel man. Keep itvup.

[@blackNwhite1865TY]

Salah was my first on the team. Gotta have my favourite player

[@prel8189]

It's good to be back!

[@FPL-Tony]

Any thoughts about Brighton’s Yankuba Minteh, Amario Cozier-Duberry and Ibrahim Osman, Crystal Palace’s Daichi Kamada, Brentford’s Igor Thiago, Wolves’ Hee-chan and Rodrigo Gomes, Leicester’s Caleb Okoli, Ipswich’s Conor Chaplin and Omari Hutchinson and Southampton’s Kamaldeen Sulemana and Yukinari Sugawara?

@@rwa01 isak. Sorry. Auto correct

[@BradThac]

@@rwa01 but I I kinda think you knew that, so it’s a weird fast response. Peace brother

[@FPLMate]

It’s a great price for him!

[@ThortheMerciless]

No Liverpool players??? According to Hub they are likely to score the most goals weeks 1-6 and they're 3rd on the CS list.

[@kaganms]

Thoughts on Flekken as the main keeper? Nailed on 4.5 GK, great for saves, will get you points even in poor fixtures

[@FPLMate]

He’s not bad, I just think we can do a bit better for that price

[@michaelnorthcote3194]

Dan, do you think the England and Spain fpl assests will miss gw 1 because they were on international duty for a long time?

[@BAyernaKED]

Everton have really nice fixtures early, anyway they play Brighton Spurs and Villa in their first 4

[@jamieaaron1779]

Hi Dan, Mine and your teams have been similar the last few years. Especially with New Squads (beginning of the season and wildcards)! I do think you’re potentially focussing too much on the BPS amendments though Great video back!

[@Luke-Hiles]

I feel like this year Szoboszlai and Gakpo will both play much better than they did last year. Klopp had them playing in the wrong positions, and if Szoboszlai plays CAM in Slot's 4-2-3-1, and Gakpo plays on the LW, I can see both of them being good, cheap options for this season. Obviously it's a risk, but if both of them look to be starters after gameweek 1, I would buy at least one of them

[@Standard____]

Thoughts on Johnson at £6.5 mil? If I got the right info he scored a hat-trick against Cambridge, and he’s just scored against Hearts too! He’s clearly in good form and if he can sustain it do you think he will be worth a buy?

[@FPLMate]

I’m not sure his minutes are totally secure, but he’s an interesting differential for sure!

[@dalehas2]

First pick … Cole Palmer! Yes, he’s expensive! He’s also destined for a spectacular season ⚽️🌟⚽️

[@datafire7654]

It’s very tempting to use the bench boost straight away, it always brings me headache later in the game

[@BellaLiverpool66]

my first person ever to get was Nick pope. HE never let me down at the start of the season until he got injured.

[@fplseano7851]

Dan will you be doing a fixtures guide at some point? Best and worst fixtures?

[@SalahGOAT1892]

Mine one is GK: Sanchez, Turner DEF: Trent, Gvardiol, Konsa, Mykolenko, Harwood MID: Saka, Foden, Nkunku, Eze, Gordon FWD: Isak, Darwin, Watkins

[@SalahGOAT1892]

But I also think about Trent --> Van Dijk, and Mykolenko --> Timber if He plays as LB in pre-season

[@archiebyrne2205]

no salah palmer or haaland?

[@FPLMate]

No Haaland OR Salah! 😯

[@Palashvadnere]

I like this going for similar... No Halland No Salah 🙌

[@dherbert9121]

[@irtahatariq998]

I am confused regarding to go with 1 haaland or Watkins and isak both with Palmer, Saka, Foden

[@CherubRockChica]

I reckon with Botman and Lascelles out with ACLs, BDB is an excellent choice to start the season.

[@SkuppDponey]

Great to See you Back Dan the Man ⚽ ❤️‍🔥

[@FPLMate]

Great to be back!

[@alexandermcbrien264]

My team is similar to yours except Ive gone for Flekken in goal instead of Pickford, Gvardiol at the back instead of Saliba and Palmer instead of Foden but the rest is the same for me.

[@-im1974]

When do CC teams converge? Is it one week or one day before the game starts?

[@DVE_bs]

Slight dilemma here . I have a team 100.5m so I need to downgrade either Armstrong Nkunku or Isak but to who ?

[@lincolndethomasis6602]

Is an Arsenal triple up of White, Saliba and Havertz worth it?

[@evankeating5471]

Strong looking first draft🔥

[@Sancho_codm]

I do think that bergvall gonna be the best 4.5m in the game. I know we have a lot of competition in the cm/cdm spots but bissouma sarr bentancur bergvall Archie it's gonna be 2 of them, and the 2 are gonna be whoever proves himself better in the preseason mainly. And i do believe if bergvall starts he's gonna get a lot of attacking returns, he really is him , especially on assists. Just hope he'd start

[@vherostar]

Eze goign to city could be an issue as he's not gonna get as many points at a city team due to him not being the main target man.

[@mikey.y7]

How to change formation when your new

[@Anto_254]

You should update your league code and link on your account's about section. I struggled to find it till I found this video. Also, are you offering prizes this season for your fpl league winners?

[@cheurfakhellaf9313]

Are there prizes for winners at the end of the year?

[@JoshB21]

Finding it incredibly hard to justify Haaland and who I have to remove, but the idea of the stable captain choice is the ONLY thing

[@MrSitemaster2]

I'm not sure I'd pick, Foden I can see Pep resting him for Greilish at the start of the season.

[@TottenhamFC0811]

Which 2 of Son, Haaland, Salah, Saka, Palmer and Saliba do I get rid off?

[@r_d3lta696]

haaland worth it when you can get palmer another great mid than ur draft , possibly salah? Means you can just take Watkins and isak

[@poolfans]

New rule to be able to roll to 5 FT And great game week 1 fixture for Manutd Liverpool Arsenal Newcastle We can use strategy Bench boast on gw1 Wc on gw2 to build a team for 5-6 game week to roll 5 ft

[@benshadlock8969]

Not sure on Foden, I can see Pep resting him for Greilish at the start of the season

[@MarcNash]

Munoz was the first name on my teamsheet, followed by Maatsen.

[@stevendouglas3633]

Do you think foden/Saka and other England players will be available for gameweek 1 Dan?

[@FPLMate]

I think they probably will, but we still have a long time to find out this info

[@elmedina1173]

Thanks Dan!!!!

[@nezkeys79]

Haaland and Palmer were my first picks. Non negotiable

[@andrew_rubia]

I don't think Jao Pedro is nailed on, considering the striking options and the new manager. But time will tell, and hopefully the pre-season will give us hints.

[@kngLazzar]

My first name on the team sheet was Nkunku😂 That 6.5m price and as a midfielder is just a joke if he can stay fit and play regularly. Only time will tell

[@nezkeys79]

Liverpool have really good fixtures too so its annoying that its basically impossible to fit salah in.

[@michaelnorthcote3194]

I would have at least one Liverpool asset. They have decent fixtures.

[@rcbucs25]

I remember last year when eze was in everyones starting draft and we all know how that turned out 😅

Hudson odoi or Andreas (0m in the bank so any other 5.5m to consider also?)

Let’s go new season Thoughts on my draft Sanchez, 4.0 gk Munoz, Gabriel, pedro Porro, Konsa, hardwood Palmer, Saka, Foden, Gordon, Garnacho Watkins, Isak, joao pedro Thanks for the content it’s good to have you back.

[@i_love_dua_lipa1]

rlly strong team, however u r gonna have to bench at least one of ur mids or attackers

[@tiger555-zb9du]

Cheers at the minute I’ve got Joao on the bench but I will decide later

[@mydamnedunited8429]

Well unless I'm missing something buddy, that squad adds up to 100.5m. I have similar price points and am looking at a 4.5 forward where you have Pedro (who I would prefer obviously) I have... Pickford so that's +0.5 on yours. Anderson over Munoz -0.5 back level. Gvardiol over Porro +0.5 again. Same midfield except Nkunku over Garnacho but both same price. Same forward line except I have a 4.5 makeweight over Pedro.

[@tiger555-zb9du]

Yeah I have guehi not Munoz sorry but thanks for letting me know

[@humanbeing975]

Keep it up Dan

[@eroq3.143]

Cold Palmer without a doubt, first pick. Up the Chels!

Where did you hear Ez-err Dan? Everyone else says Ez-a. Which is correct?

[@FPLMate]

The way I’m saying it is correct

[@ryancollins9298]

No Liverpool and no Chelsea seems crazy also no United or Tottenham seems like a mistake but could be okay haaland seems like such a restriction not seen one draft that looks good with him yet

[@dherbert9121]

Eze does so much poorer when not playing alongside Olise . Won’t have the same space , time or passes to Eze without him

[@DC-YTC]

That's just Twitter nonsense, there's no data to actually support that viral claim because they were both injured and fit at the same time. The evidence is the season before, Eze did better in terms of fantasy when Olise wasn't on the pitch. Palace as a team will be worse but Eze will get more goals and assists which is what Fantasy is about

[@HarryJ-xe2hf]

Is eze or mateta on pens?

[@dherbert9121]

@@DC-YTC perhaps check again . When one of the two was missing they won just 5 in 24 games . No one supplied more passes to Eze all season either

[@DC-YTC]

Eze. Mateta took 2 penalties and scored last season but Eze wasn't playing for both games. Eze will be on corners and free kicks with Olise gone too. They were taking turns last season

Both risky for minutes

[@IsakLarsson]

Wow, no Palmer? I’m glad seeing drafts without him to be honest, he’s probably the best player in the premier league and the only mid alongside Salah that could explode for 4 goals in a single game, he is the ultimate rank killer if you don’t have him.
