Best £5.0m+ defenders for FPL 2024/25

Can see the logic - I’m skeptical of KDB this season but that’s just personal opinion I can’t hugely justify.

As far as plans go, dropping Son before his home match against Everton is Liz Trust level.

Burn may be risk- one to watch as perhaps not nailed and could jump on Livramento if Trippier leaves. Also not keen on KDB and wouldn’t book in transfer from Son to Foden in week 2

Calafiori and Timber are pushing everyone for a start. White probably the safest.

Priced accordingly. He's the best bet with uncertainty on the left.

B

Tough call, but I would probably go with Bruno. They’re both on set pieces but Bruno also has pens. But then again, tough call. I like Øde more as a player tho

I have the same dilemma but I am going with Bruno because of pens....also ARS have a lot of talisman but if MUN do score, then there are more chances of Bruno being involved.....there is little to choose between them though

A for me ; far more likelihood of involvement in that team . .but they may need to gel a LOT looking at their current preseason.

I’m currently on Dan Burn

Anderson rotates quite well with Mykolenko so would want Anderson over Robinson. We don’t know how good Fulham will be without Paulinho and Sessignon signing gives competition for Robinson

I also have the same defense although my 4.0m guy is Barco

Allison

Raya I guess, best defence in the league

Not just money but also others from the same team and potential injury issues. All those aside, Pope.

Pope

Allison for the opening fixtures

Areola

Areola sticks out foŕ me

Or neither

B for me. Very nice team.

Wait and see on Liverpool, they could be anything. And is Salah not on the downslope? I wouldn’t touch him unless he starts firing

Rotation with Konate a risk- we don’t know who Slott might favour

Pep loves changing to new systems, Gvadiol might never enter an opponent's 18 yard box ever again.

Very nice, mate.

overall strong but arsenal or haaland have a word, like the differential side tho

Solake's opening fixtures don't scream goals.
Flekken is away to Liverpool, ManCity and Spurs in opening 5!
Is Palmer going to be as effective in this 3-4-2-1 system?

Who is on your bench?

Andreas won’t play more than 30 games, and Solanke plays for a lower league team. I would weaken def and beef up attack

The latter for me

easy Munoz

Muñoz easily for me

Munoz. But I have both.

Porro for me

Muniz, see how it goes, and switch to Porro if he’s firing

For me, yes. If only such guarantees were just that.

Yes

Yes

Yes - unfortunately entirely hypothetical

idk I read something just now which suggested he could suit the system nicely and I’ve always liked jota because he’s quite an intelligent player who puts chances away!
he would get in my team straight away

Yes.

I'd have both probably, but I have doubts Jota will even be first choice let alone nailed

Both not too bad bench options

A

If Livra starts that would be way to go.

Pope and Myk

M & E

B

Andreas in the back is Andersen

Maybe downgrade one of the 10m mids to say a Gordon or Eze and get a 6m 3rd forward and a better bench.

Downgrade Trent and upgrade MGW

Dj Grealo will make a mockery of anything

Serious answer I think Doku offers too similar a profile that I'd be worried for the benching

No Doku is a better player.

Pep praising Grealish cause he wasn’t selected for the Euro’s, just trying to boost his confident I think.

Pep praised almost every player and then benched them 3 games in a row.

A.

B. But I have Haaland & Salah. I can see Salah being near highest point scorer first 6.

First name and my sheet.

There's 2 wildcards. With options for 3,4,5 FT too I'd say keepers are not set and forget.
