Who to pick, who to avoid - your team's FPL assets analysed

Your team's Fantasy Premier League assets analysis begins as the season kicks off on August 21st. Four experts - Pras, FPL Heisenberg, Gianni Buttice and Holly Shand - provide insights into their chosen key players, low-owned stars, and assets to avoid.

Pras highlights Arsenal's defender Thomas Partey as his standout pick, praising his reliability and strong scoring record. He also suggests Jurrien Timber, Arsenal's right-back, as a potential high-return option, despite his recent injury. For players to avoid, Pras recommends against investing in Christos Tzolis, a new midfielder signed by Arsenal, due to his inconsistent playing time and lack of guaranteed starts.

Holly Shand recommends Aston Villa's Jack Grealish as her talisman, noting his past consistency and potential to contribute goals and assists. She also identifies Villa's right-back, Joel Matip, as a solid investment, given the team's strong defensive record last season. An asset to avoid for Holly is Alejandro Garnacho, a midfielder signed from Chelsea, due to his limited playing time and lack of standout attributes.

Gianni Buttice points to Bournemouth's goalkeeper Danijel Suba as his team's talisman, praising his contributions from set-pieces and defensive reliability. He also suggests Adrien Truffert, the left-back, as a differential pick, citing his offensive threat and defensive contributions at a relatively low ownership price. An asset to avoid for Gianni is Dominic Calvert-Lewin, a £6m forward whose goal-scoring record last season was relatively low for his price tag.
