First time of trying Fantasy, So here is my team, any suggestions or tips would be b gratefully received. My team is . De Gea, stekelenburg, Otamendi, Monreal, Jagielka, David Luiz, Van Dijk, Dier, Matic, Coutinho, Wanyama, Sanchez, Gayle, Rooney, Kane. Yeh there are three injured players there but here's hoping they are fit before season begins. Comments please.

Otamendi is a risk given City's defense. So is Van Dijk as he isn't playing with the first team. It's generally a good idea to avoid defensive midfielders as they really don't bring many points. So steer clear of Matic and Dier. And Sanchez too with all the transfer speculation around him

Go for someone like Willian or Zaha. I feel both of them will be good picks.

Hey Ed042. You were going to give a semi-detailed explanation of how this whole fantasy league thing works. I've never been involved in one so would be keen to hear before I sign up.
Cheers.

Sorry for the late reply.
Couple of things. Be on the lookout for injuries. Both Lascelles and Ritchie have picked up minor knocks. And ofc Mane may not start the first few gameweeks because of his injury.
Forster/ Foster seems to be a good combo for the opening GW's.

Your team actually looks quite good. Though I believe it's better to have two 4.5 goalkeepers and rotate rathee than have just the one and forget.

Here is a basic guide on how to set up your team.
First of all go to the site at premier league fantasy

There you sign up. Next comes the choosing a team part.
You have 100 million to choose a squad of 15 players. 2 Goalkeepers, 5 Defenders, 5 Midfielders and 3 Strikers. You cannot choose more than 3 players from one team although it's advised to not go for more than 2 from each so as to maintain an even spread.
If you have doubts or questions regarding which players to select you can post them here.

Next to join into the league go to Leagues -> Join a Classic League and enter the code of our League which has been 'stickied' on top of the page.

As for the scoring rules you can look them up on the official web site. You'll be allowed one transfer a week.

Cheers and have fun playing all.

cheers bro.

{Ed042's Note - You can post your team when you're done with it.I'll give some suggestions. }

So how's everyone team looking as of right now?
Any players you feel are a must have? What formation is everyone's going with?

For me, it's
Forster Foster
Milner Lindelof Bertrand Hunemeier Rangel
Pedro Coutinho Ozil Knockaert RLC
Benteke Firmino Lukaku

Will be playing a 3-4-3 to start off with.
Personally feel that Milner is a must have. I think he'll be the highest scoring defender. Also Pedro might prove to be a bargain at 8 million. Had Salah initially but think he might be a risk at the start of the season

Hi Reet hope you good.
I initially had
De gea/ schemical as GK

Vertonghen/ Alderweireld/ Azpilicueta/ Bertrand/ Mawson as defenders

Henderson (c) / Alli/ Mane/ de bruyne/ Joe Allen as midfielders

Firminho/ Iheanacho/ Robson Kanu as strikers

I do it first time so have no idea play classic 4-4-2.

{Ed042's Note - Some suggestions mate
1- I think you're spending too much on defense. It's generally a safer bet to spend more on midfielders and forwards and go with a 3-4-3 or a 3-5-2
2- Defensive midfielders like Henderson aren't really a good choice because they don't score that much and get only 1 point for a clean sheet
3- I think to succeed you really need to have one top notch striker like Kane/Lacazette/Lukaky up there. }
