Stay away from Watkins? What are you talking about? A striker in his prime, in a good team, with good fixtures, nailed to start up from every game? And your argument to stay away from him is that he's an awkward price point? No he isn't. You can start with him and downgrade easily to all sorts of players.
Love the format of these quick videos. I do agree with all of your points (as usual), however I imagine you’ll have Gordon and Eze in your team, who’re, to me, also a transfer risk.
No hate and just some critical feedback from my own view but Bakar isn't cut out to host his own pod. He doesn't have enough tools and is purely a stats man . I honestly believe he lacks charisma too a little compared to most of the other chaps( although hosting a pod is brave as it must be nerve wrecking when you are a character that is kinda like marmite). The problem is when you can't pull it through with charisma you can't get away with being a 1 trick pony etc. He always plays safe too if you look at his tweeta (Isak is essential for example)and has some really odd takes like "Stay away from Watkins"Really? Is that because he isn't going with him and is worried his rank will Plummet? I don't know. Compare him to someone like FPL Fran you will see what I mean 😊. I'm sure he has his place for the stat folk though so not completely denouncing him btw and he probably does have his place . Just my opinion from someone who looks at the big picture.
Instead of daily content, I would prefer less frequent videos with better quality. What argumentation is that to dismiss Pickford because the first 4 fixtures don't look great. Goalkeepers don't rely as much on fixtures, and unless you plan an early wildcard, any engaged manager picks a goalkeeper for a longer period anyway. Everton were one of the best defences last year, Mykolenko is also an option, but I'd say Pickford will score more points (incl. bonus), is nailed and not someone I feel I need to rotate.. Even if he scores 20-30 points less than last season, I still see him outscore all these mediocre 4,5's. And with Watkins, your motivation is his price point and Isak being a better option? Seriously? First of all, if you don't have Haaland then it's not difficult to have both Watkins and Isak, so it's not like you necessarily have to choose between them. And I'd argue the price point is actually a positive, you can easily move to any cheaper striker, and Watkins provides the easiest route to Haaland if you started without him.
Since Gabriel and Saliba cost 6.0 then White is definitely worth the 6.5 because he's more likely to score or get an assist. BigMan is a template manager so I didn't expect him to go for White over the aforementioned duo.
Agree with all of them except maybe Foden. I just think people are taking that quote from Pep and thinking he's guaranteed to not start GW1. He didn't say that. Pep is sensible and will understand minutes like he always has. First game away to Chelsea. Don't want big players on the bench. So that includes Rodri for sure. Foden a little less but I still think he gets enough minutes. Plus the fixtures get better after and not like he's been injured. Don't want to be booking in to get Foden imo. That's why we have benches for things like this. 😅

Playing UCL as well
Go with him if you think he's a great option mate
@@Nixzy404 He's been in and out of my draft. I don't think he's essential but saying he is one to avoid is totally mad for the reasons I already said.
I've personally got Watkins,Isak and Haaland in my team😂
Watkins. Keep the faith.
Re Toney - he isn’t back in training until Monday so unlikely to start against Palace.

A very important apostrophe.
