Very interesting! Many experts and content creators have speculated about changes to the game for a few seasons now, and now there's plenty of new things to be aware of. Being able to save five transfers is huge though. Like Andy says, it's unlikely you will find yourself with five free transfers many times throughout the season, but it certainly rewards planning ahead.
Fantasy Premier League is now live for the 2024-35 season, and I've already reactivated our league. You'll be joining automatically once you have registered your team. If anything goes wrong, or you haven't joined our Back of The Net league before, you can do so by clicking this link, or by using this code: cnzr88.
I hope to see many of you who played last season and the seasons before joining, and new players are of course welcome to join the fun!
I'll be updating this thread with anything relevant as we are getting closer to the first gameweek of the season.
It was a good distraction from the more serious FPL which is now live, not tried to log in yet.

United very close to signing wonder kid Leny Yoro, superb defender at 18 United are starting to sign the right profile of player, Zirkzee and Yoro are both good potential and not players that are past there best.
I heard earlier today TAA to Real Madrid is a real possibility.
The Mystery chip will be available in January 2025... a mystery indeed....
Looking forward to seeing both in preseason.
Wonder if there's any truth to that. I see some content creators have him in their early drafts.
I'm currently only on my first draft as well. There is some obvious picks I haven't included in my current team, but I have tried to find a decent balance with the different price brackets.
Other fantasy games have other chips than FPL. It wouldn't surprise me if they have taken a look at what works in the other games.
My team is mid tier players at the moment, on my days off i will have a proper look and see how feasible it is fitting in premium players.
TAA has one year left on his contract and Klopp leaving could be a factor, plus he is good friend with Bellingham.
:))
Yoro is official, get in.
INEOS making all the right moves, need to ship out some players though to get other players in.
Players to sell...
Maguire
AWB
Mctominay
Casemiro
To name a few then we need to get De Ligt, Frimpong and Joa Neves.
That would be a good window for United.
We're going to need a bigger budget........ 💲💲 :))
I will try and make a Haaland + Salah draft at some point, just to see how it looks. Not sure I'll be able to stretch to both in my final gameweek 1 team though.
Real Madrid as a club is probably very tempting too!
If it is one or the other I will opt for Haaland. Salah seemed to drop off a bit last season and though i will keep an eye on Liverpool's pre season and see what system and tactics they are playing.
I think Liverpool lost a friendly against Preston today. Not sure who played though.
If I remember last preseason correctly, a lot of the games Arsenal played were not on a streaming service, or were played abroad in the US in the middle of the night. I hope at least the game vs United will be on a streaming service I have access to!
I hope we'll see you back soon, @Fire_and_Ice_Returns. Enjoy the break!
I am not very happy, my training has not been good recently. I will get back to my best quickly.
I'm sure you will, @Fire_and_Ice_Returns! :)
My first squad picks was exactly £100.0. I've made a few drafts I quite liked, but none which have left me any budget to spare, which I managed to do before gameweek 1 last season. Those funds came in handy in the following gameweeks.
How many pen takers do you have in your squad ?
I think i had 6 if isak and watkins take pens ? Saka salah erling palmer.
Really looking forward to seeing Calafiori at Arsenal. On paper it sounds like a great signing. I do wonder though how the rest of the transfer window will look like. I can't see them signing other players unless there are a number of players going out on loan or signing for other clubs.
Kiwior, Zinchenko, Smith Rowe, Nelson could be going ?
I don't see both of Kiwior and Zinchenko leaving, but you never know. There has been interest for Kiwior in Italy, so out of the two, I guess he's more likely to leave. There has been some interest in Nelson too, I believe, but I haven't read that Arsenal have received any bids. I do believe Smith Rowe might end up at Fulham by the looks of it. It's a shame really, as he and Saka were so important when they both became first team players. Injuries and competition have made the way into the starting eleven more difficult for Smith Rowe though, so it's understandable if he wants to seek minutes elsewhere.
Do you think Eddie Nketiah is going too ?
Arsenal to submit £60,000,000 transfer bid for Eddie Nketiah upgrade

Apparently Marseille are interested in Nketiah (which is also mentioned in the article you shared above), but that's all I've read. I'm not sure they'll bring in a replacement even if he goes to France, though. They have Gabriel Jesus, Havertz and Trossard who can all play in that striker role. I doubt that's a good decision though, and I hope they are able to bring in a suitable replacement. Viktor Gyökeres (also mentioned in the same article) is one of several names linked with Arsenal, but I don't know how serious the rumours are.
Typical transfer rumours, anything could happen ?
Haven't heard many Liverpool transfer rumours. A few defenders are needed like the ones Arsenal have.
Back! United looked OK for 20 odd minutes until Rasmus and Yoro got injured, Arsenal deserved the win, though it is all about fitness at this stage.
I still have major reservations about several United players though too early to see if they can improve from last season.
As always, I think a lot of journalists are just throwing names out there, quoting "sources". At this point, I only believe what David Ornstein, Fabrizio Romano for transfer news in general, and Arsenal in-the-knows James McNicholas and Charles Watts.
I haven't heard many Liverpool rumours either. They, like any other club, is no doubt working on their transfers, but they might just have kept news away from the media.

It's looking increasingly likely that Smith Rowe leaves.
Great to have you back, @Fire_and_Ice_Returns!
Didn't catch the game myself, as it started so late. Happy to see Arsenal winning, but I've yet to see many highlights, so I don't know how they and United played.
