The upcoming Premier League season is almost here, and Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers are frantically adjusting their squads before the Friday deadline. Creating the perfect Gameweek 1 team is crucial, but preseason is also an opportune time to strategize for the entire FPL season. With disruptions like the Covid-19 pandemic and winter World Cup in the past, FPL managers can look forward to a more “normal” 2023-24 season. Nevertheless, some unique disruptions loom, such as construction work at Kenilworth Road leading to a blank Gameweek 2 for Luton and Burnley, and Manchester City’s rescheduled match against Brentford in Gameweek 18 due to their participation in the Club World Cup.
Whether you’re aiming for your best finish ever or vying for supremacy in your work mini-league, Mail Sport has you covered. Here are our top five tips for the new Premier League season:
1. It’s a Marathon, Not a Sprint: Remember that you can’t win FPL in the first few weeks, but you can certainly lose it. While betting against popular picks may be tempting, be cautious of the potential consequences. Determine if the risk is worth it and consider leaving calculated risks for later in the season, when double and blank gameweeks are more prevalent.
2. Think About Price Points: Building your Gameweek 1 squad is crucial and should cover various price points to remain adaptable throughout the season. Don’t get fixated on one player’s preseason performance; instead, consider multiple promising assets in each price range. By viewing your squad as a team of price points, you can navigate unexpected changes with ease.
3. Don’t Waste Money on Your Bench: Allocate your budget wisely by prioritizing first-team players in your starting XI. Your bench is there to provide cover for unexpected absences, not to accumulate unnecessary funds. While having one cheap player as a backup is sensible, focus on constructing a strong starting lineup to maximize your budget.
4. Judge the Decision, Not the Outcome: In FPL, you can only control your decisions, not the outcome of matches. If you make a reasoned and logical decision, don’t beat yourself up over unforeseen outcomes. Sometimes, luck plays a significant role, but it usually evens out over time.
5. Play Your Own Game: Determine your preferred approach to the game and comfortably make decisions accordingly. Whether you’re cautious or aggressive, trust in-form players or focus on favorable fixtures, follow your instincts and enjoy playing the game your way.
