@@bluecrasher7710 are you suggesting the numbers are wrong then? Trent as a number 6 is a worse player than as a RB and you don't even need stats to tell you that.

The two injuries which happened yesterday (Jesus and Nkunku) really made me rethink my team. Both were in and now I’ve had to replace Jesus with martinelli and Nkunku with Nunez. But hopefully at least Nkunku will be back before gw1.
Forest were actually playing at burtons stadium so not at home, plus they only had 4 first teamers starting. Regardless of that, their pre-season has been shambolic, more emphasis on getting players out there to put on show to sell and not playing our best players who will NOT be fit for the season start, so feel free to target them either way
Hi 👋 What about jackson ? Because injury nkunku. What do you think my team ? ❤️❤️ Onana Stones - estubinan - gabriel Son - saka - mitoma - rashford Haaland- watkins - jackson Sub: areola-colwill- baldock - anderson
De zebri used Steele for reasons. One thing he did not say is that Sanchez was in the top 5 worst xG prevented alongside Ederson, Ward, Meslier, Bazunu. While Kepa was in top 5 best xG prevented with Alisson, Ramsdale and a few more i dont remmember
I think if Grealish is the safest choice as the 2nd City attacking asset. I really like the idea of having Foden in my team but it's a risky one. As for Avarez I don't think he starts unless KDB is benched.
the "other" problem with Darwin is he couldn't hit hit a cow's arse with a banjo! 😆 Loving the source quotes/ Info graphics you're posting as you talk, gives what you saying more weight and impact.
I think Chilwell AND James could both be phenomenal picks. Both super attacking and likely to both get subbed around 60 mins to lock in the clean sheet. With the added time rule change I suspect loads more clean sheets will be lost in the last minutes of the game.
@@janvisser4132 true but I think the managers will keeps them on the pitch a little bit longer knowing that the game is going to go on longer. In particular with Chelsea as they don't have Europe to play in.

@@Theway2Mount7Up First match of Liverpool and Chelsea will bring out goals I think both teams are on fire in pre szn so preferably arsenal, brighton defs or man city those teams are guaranteed a clean sheet &/ a goal during their first few matches. you can move on to Chelsea defs later during the coming gw
He’s a new signing, not guaranteed to start, you’ve got no data on him. For the beginning of the season try to choose tried and tested players and avoid new signings.
I think Son could end up a serious bargain, can easily see him playing as striker if Kane leaves for Bayern, which the bookmakers have more likely than not to happen. If Kane stays I'll avoid son for now but if he leaves before gameweek 1 Son will be in my team
Arsenal have the better first 10 fixtures but the attacking returns are more spread out. Bruno has penalties and is more likely to hog the attacking returns, him and Rashford mostly. If you already have Rashford, get Ode. If you don’t have Rashford, get Bruno.
Surely isn’t nailed though. If you have to think about it, is it really worth going there? For what it’s worth, think it’s a fine rationale but even Liverpool fans have no idea who the front two alongside Salah will be.
Stones but apparently he may have picked up a knock in training this week. Just a rumour on Blue Moon (Man City Fan Forum) but something to be aware of, we should find out soon either way.
I see Klopp playing a 3 back against Chelsea to make up for the lack of DM’s. Trent and Robbo at WB so when Trent goes forward, the RCM/RCB moves wide.
I disagree. I went to Nkunku, and if he isn't fit enough to start I will probably go to Darwin. I just don't rate the villa fixtures that highly, especially for attackers.
The forest game wasn't at home it was at St George's Park and missing at least 5 first team players, but I would still pick 3 arsenal players for the opening game
Good catch thanks. Looked like a home fixture when I checked the scores, didn't realise it was hosted elsewhere. Appreciate your honesty on picking 3 Arsenal even though you're a Forest fan haha 🫡
@@FPLFocal We have been horrible all pre season tbh with no signings made in key positions needed, yes it's only friendlies but a lot of Forest fans including myself are extremely concerned especially with our tough start. I was planning on triple captaining Jesus but that's out of the question now with his injury lol
What are your thoughts about going no arsenal to start? I know arsenal tripple is talked about as a popular option, but I don't have anyone in my team that I would sacrifice to bring any in. I got watkins for jesus and will bring jesus back after injury, but my midfield (mitoma, foden, son, fernandes, and salah) is pretty full. My only option is fernandes to saka, but I personally prefer fernandes for more consistent points and assist potential. Any recommendations?
last year sanchez in top 5 worst xG prevented in the league alongside Ederson, Bazunu, Ward, Meslier. Kepa in the top 5 best. You really think Kepa will be benched? No way. Unless Kepa plays bad. But he just married. His form will just become better
![ปฏิเสธไม่ไหว (Crush on you) - LIPTA feat. No One Else [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/NBw1jF342vw/mqdefault.jpg)
Trent's expected points just aren't higher enough over other defenders to justify his price. That's the same price as Martinelli.
Who else from Lfc, I want either Jota or Darwin.... Salah n TAA too much
@@mrb2643 Nuñez it’s his second season and he will adjust really well like he has in pre season

Back to the drawing board! Nkunku's is less serious, hoping he's fine for GW1 still
@CR7-GoatEffectI don’t think he’ll play many games this season
Tbh I think Nunez as a pool fan won’t start straight away because klopp doesn’t trust him as much as Gakpo and Diaz offers so much
@CR7-GoatEffect I think he’ll be a good pick for short term as Jesus is out
Watkins?
Welcome back for another video! 😅
In the arsenal vs Monaco game yesterday martinelli looked sharp and timber played that role that Zinchenko usually plays and did that role amazingly

Based on this, its looking like u should pick Ruben Diaz over Stones
@@krishanbhatt18why? Stones will play in midfield and could get more goal involvments
good team
I really hope Sanchez can fight out for no.1 spot in goal for Chelsea. He would be brilliant with those fixtures at just 4.5

I feel like Trossard can be a great pick while Jesus is injured. Considering his current form i reckon he starts over Nketiah
Roatinon risk
if Trossard actually plays then Martinelli is like a better choice.
just started making my team and this drops as im creeping the channel. W
🤝

Best pick from Liverpool, I would go for Salah but i didn't watch through pre-season games , is there better picks?
Gakpo is very tempting for the price and low ownership
Short and concise, excellent video as always Focal
Thanks :)
Looks like another great segment for your channel Oscar. Its a must watch for everyone
Thanks Ed
Was finally happy with my team then jesus and nkunku got doubts/not playing on the day i brought them in 😅

Mate he scored 4 goals in very few minutes in pre season, maybe put the agenda aside
Good job Oscar ❤

Is that how it works? I thought if they went off and a goal was scored they would lose cleansheet points?
@@benshw1111 this is only the case if the player has been sent off. If they get substituted the players score is locked in.
Around the 60 minutes is not that fun. You will always be afraid he will be taken off before 60

Thoughts on trossard differential?
Hi Focal, I have now gone with Ederson, Chilwell/TAA/Gabriel/Estupinan/Saka/Rashford/Bruno/Mbeumo/Haaland/Nunez. Would you change anyone?
Liverpool will conceded goals so except your using TAA as a budget for another transfer in future best to switch to someone like stones
@@idawariepelle8432 I swapped Gabriel and TAA for Chilwell and James. Is that better?

Is Hojlund worth a gamble as a Jesus replacement? First 3 fixtures aren't bad attacking wise. Would love Alvarez, but I already have triple City
He’s a new signing, not guaranteed to start, you’ve got no data on him. For the beginning of the season try to choose tried and tested players and avoid new signings.
Always avoid signings like that like the plague mate, completely unproven and no guarantee he will start
He is unlikely to start as he has no preseason games.
I think Son could end up a serious bargain, can easily see him playing as striker if Kane leaves for Bayern, which the bookmakers have more likely than not to happen. If Kane stays I'll avoid son for now but if he leaves before gameweek 1 Son will be in my team
I think people are sleeping on Ruben Dias
Agree!
Pep roulette
Is Dias more nailed than Stones?
@@Prog4Prog I recon so, he's probably the captain and the haven't lost a game this year where he started I dont think
Top video!
Told you ederson was a good idea! Lol😂😂😂😂
How would Kane's increased minutes impact Maddison? Would he go up the rankings by much?
Which two defenders should I have out of : Gabriel ,Saliba and Estupinan
Gabriel Estupinan
Eze, Mbeumo and Trippier or Foden, Martinelli and Baldock
How about Gapko?
Salah is ESSENTIAL
How many xP's for Flekken?
Who do you think is the better pick between Bruno and Odegaard?
odegarrd
Arsenal have the better first 10 fixtures but the attacking returns are more spread out.
Bruno has penalties and is more likely to hog the attacking returns, him and Rashford mostly.
If you already have Rashford, get Ode.
If you don’t have Rashford, get Bruno.
im not captaining haaland until gw3
Thoughts on Ramsdale/Raya situation
Surely Gakpo over Darwin if he offers more off the ball and more versatility across the front 3 + midflied.
Darwin higher upside tbf
Surely isn’t nailed though. If you have to think about it, is it really worth going there?
For what it’s worth, think it’s a fine rationale but even Liverpool fans have no idea who the front two alongside Salah will be.
actually I think it's gakpo salah and jota but you prolly right cuz nobody knows
What makes people think James is 2nd on pens ?
Quality info, thanks Oscar
Is a midfield of Bruno , Maddison , Diaby , Enciso and Kluivert good enough for the first 5 weeks ? Really confused between Bruno and Odegaard
Where’s all your money going if you have that midfield? 😂
Do you have a Salah and Halaand or Kane and Halaand type of team because that is the weakest midfield I’ve seen to date
Alissson good for this season ?
he might get a lot of save points but you can find other options at 5m. Also fixtures are not as good as Ederson
7 days away till kick off.......Let's goooo‼️💯🎉
It's coming around fast!
so you changed the rank players from xP to xP of next 5. It will last for this season?
Just GW1
@@FPLFocal one more question. Where do you get xP from? In planFPL, they said Haaland 6.3 like you but Saka was like 5.5
Consistent goat
Nice one Oscar 👍

Cancelo is my differential. Something tells me he is being severely underrated, wish me luck!
😂 good luck with that

He’s reportedly just agreed personal terms with Barca, he’s off to Catalonia.
@@colincampbell9747 yes that's the joke, friend🤣🤣

Thanks Oscar.

@@ImmortalTreknique 👊🏻
Does having a Haaland Kane front 2 become an option given the injury concerns to Jesus and nkunku?
Transfer is gonna continue after gw1 and Kane could leave which will make your team very unbalanced.
Looking likely Kane might actually leave this year.
I don't know who I should buy foden or bernardo silva
Foden
is foden a good pick?
if De bruyne is ruled out for injury. He is a great pick. However, when Champions league come he might be rotated
High risk high reward
Martinelli or bruno with rashy
Martinelli everyday, you don’t need double United attack.
Use the £0.5 elsewhere or just save it for later.
dias or stones?
Stones but apparently he may have picked up a knock in training this week.
Just a rumour on Blue Moon (Man City Fan Forum) but something to be aware of, we should find out soon either way.
Epic content Focal.
Thanks mate!
No foden… interesting
That said you can tweak xMins on review, e.g. if we give him 80 mins GW1 he goes up to 4.8 points. 4.6 in GW2 if he gets 80 again
I see Klopp playing a 3 back against Chelsea to make up for the lack of DM’s. Trent and Robbo at WB so when Trent goes forward, the RCM/RCB moves wide.

I'd guess it's Kepa and he only loses his spot if he hits bad form. Sanchez is a good keeper and can compete

Ollie Watkins has a terrible record when it comes to penalties.
3rd striker needed with 6.5 itb
Wissa or pedro
Taiwo awoniyi
I think Alvarez could get a lot more games this season, could be used in a lot of different positions. Could be a steal overall for 6.5mil
Why is nobody picking saliba?
Where is kane on the Xp?
He’s mentioned near the end
he might leave so the author doesnt show it
What will the template bandits do now without Jesus 😂
Nkunku was the chosen one!
Robertson > Trent
Robertson is likely become another cb so he might not assist much as he used to
Where was Kane? He is still a spurs player…
he said his xP is about 27 in 5 games but not included because he might leave
What about Bowen? surprised to see he didn't make to cut considering your last videos.
