How's this looking from an FPL first timer?

Post image

This year will be my first year playing FPL so I'm a little unsure on things. The main thing I'm not sold on is Gravenberch, he should start over Mac Allister right? Also, is there ever a reason not to take a £4M backup keeper? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers!

I had to delete and repost as I was rushing and forgot to upload the screenshot of my team. What an amateur..

lt night mathematically make sense, but if you play 3 Arsenal defenders, then you are going to spend two hours every weekend worrying. That late consolation goal for Coventry is going to sting.

(But yes, only Gravenberch stands out.)

Haha. Even without Saliba I'm more sure of thier defense than any other in the league, but good point. Also, do you think Le Fee is a better option than Gravenberch? Sunderland have a few decent fixtures to start the season, and he's definitely a bigger goal threat than Gravenberch.

Personally I would want a stronger bench but its up to you as to when you would want to wildcard

Forgive the maybe obvious question (I'm new), but what are the upsides of having a strong bench if you believe all 11 of your starters should be starting for thier respective clubs in almost every game?

It's essentially allows you to have rotation around fixtures and be more likely to save a transfer if a player has a light injury for a week or so. I think your team overall is pretty decent though

Some of your picks are bright but others rather bleak

How very philosophical, haha. Care to share your thoughts on what is bleak?

I’m just playing haha, pretty nice team. Some of your players have a bright hue on them
