The best way to build your FPL squad? Here's four strategies

There's £100m to walk and you request 15 players - it should beryllium reasonably simple, right?

But Fantasy Premier League managers astir nan world will beryllium tinkering pinch different formations, taking Mohamed Salah out, putting Erling Haaland successful and past swapping backmost again.

Our experts - Pras, FPL Heisenberg, Gianni Buttice and Holly Shand - are present to guideline you pinch 4 different strategies for structuring your squad.

Don't forget, nan deadline is Friday, 15 August astatine 18:30 BST - we'll person a typical unrecorded Q&A pinch Pras from 15:30 for your deadline dilemmas.

By ignoring Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland - nan 2 astir costly players successful nan crippled - you're capable to dispersed nan costs information and build a much balanced squad, while still having premium picks specified arsenic Cole Palmer and Bukayo Saka who could lucifer their output.

This draught is pinch a 3-4-3 statement successful mind, benching nan inexpensive players (Martin Dubravka, Granit Xhaka, Gabriel Gudmundsson and Reinildo) giving you a powerfulness beforehand 7 players pinch nary anemic link.

Wirtz is portion of nan aforesaid onslaught arsenic Salah. That intends that if Liverpool people large and your mini-league rivals each person points from Salah, Wirtz is much than apt to beryllium scoring highly too.

The different midfielders and forwards are each Premier League proven, and much importantly, they're each proven FPL assets too.

Building a 15-man Bench Boost squad successful gameweek 1 is sensible for respective reasons.

First, this is nan only clip you tin efficaciously play a Wildcard and Bench Boost successful nan aforesaid gameweek. If 1 of nan players successful your squad is injured a fewer hours earlier Friday's deadline simply switch them and commencement nan 15 you deliberation person nan champion chance of playing.

Second, getting this spot retired of nan measurement intends successful nan early an wounded to your 5th defender aliases 3rd striker isn't thing to interest astir - they tin beryllium near connected nan bench. If readying a later Bench Boost, much transfers will beryllium utilized to "fix nan bench". In my acquisition it becomes a awesome headache.

Third, early successful nan play location are less midweek games. Once European shot and world breaks travel information truthful does squad rotation, making it harder to find 15 starters successful nan aforesaid week.

Finally, it could thief you get disconnected to a bully start, propelling you up nan early rankings.

One antagonistic is that we don't really cognize really teams afloat group up pinch caller signings aliases managers, truthful immoderate uncertainty remains.

Most FPL teams person 3 aliases 4 players priced complete £8.5m but this big-hitter draught gets six premiums into nan broadside and covers nan champion attacks successful nan league.

It is simply a squad afloat of talismans who play 90 minutes, return set-pieces and commencement nan play pinch bully shape from nan summer.

To get Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah successful nan aforesaid squad intends excessively galore compromises elsewhere and, moreover pinch this draught I person avoided utilizing some those players, who mixed return up £28.5m of your £100m budget.

The defence is of people a small short, pinch a recently promoted £4m defender from each club, but pinch smart rotation you could get distant pinch only having to play 1 of them each week.

I americium very tempted to commencement nan play pinch nan 2 astir costly players successful nan game: Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland, utilizing 28.5% of nan £100m budget.

Both are notorious for having speedy starts to nan season, having ne'er blanked successful gameweek one. Salah averages 12.25 points per crippled connected opening weekend, pinch Haaland connected 11.

The preamble of protect publication points to nan scoring matrix gives greater inferior to nan cheaper defenders and midfielders, making nan double-up affordable.

This draught uses Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson (£5.5m) arsenic nan fund enabler, who would person amassed 36 protect publication points to spell pinch 8 extremity involvements past season.
