Fantasy League Draft The Cella's

Last year was probably the first time ever that I have played Fantasy League until the very end of the season. I always lost interest around Christmas normally but this year the brother in law had a bet with me. €50 or my Cobra 3 wood which he loves and I never use. As you know that Family rivalries are highly competitive and I like to think I know more about football than him so I was highly into the Fantasy League last year. Even at that I did not manage to get promoted from Hive account@hivefpl last season. The rough and tough of division 2 is pretty much like the real English division which is tough to get out of once you are there. This year however the Cella's are gunned for glory. Many people have asked me why my team name is called the Cella's and it is quite and amusing story. My father has 9 nieces with short auburn hair. 2 sets of identical twins. My 1st cousins. Telling the 9 apart is impossible. They are all the image of each other. Myself and so of the other members gave up a long time ago. One of these family members is called Cella so we normally just take a chance whenever we see one of the and call them Cella. So we just call them the Cella's and it stuck. The panic in my eyes when one of the Cella's is approaching for a chat and I have to study their facial features in order to take a guess at their real name. A wrong guess and you get a dig in the ribs. I just think its all very funny so I just call my team name that.

Every year I make the same mistake. Go heavy on the front 2. Have a solid back like like in FIFA or Football Manager and take the hit on the midfield. But over the last few years there are not many strikers doing it in the Premier League so I am toning down my strike force this year in favour of midfielders.

FRONT THREE :

Big Dom Solanke Spurs The Mighty Spurs Europa League Winners 2025 7.5 million: This guy is very biased as I am a Spurs supporter but Big Dom played so well last season. He was my player of the year. Even though the goals were lacking he made up for it in assists and general hold up play and he was always working. This guy is some player. With a couple of wingers around him especially Kudus and maybe fingers crossed Savinho this guy could be a revelation under Frank who took Ivan Toney and Wissa to levels where they were able to play at the very top.

Thiago Brentford 6 million:
Thiago will be the only bloody striker left the top 6 have anything to do with but he is a solid forward if you believe Keith Andrews which I do.

Ashley Barnes Burnley (sub):
Won't get many but if anyone will score for Burnley it will be him. I will have him on the bench starting out

Midfield:

I went a bit mad here but I am liking this midfield

Mo Salah Liverpool 14.5 million
Need I say more

Wirtz Liverpool 8.5 million
Imagine Kevin De Bruyne but with more legs. This guy is an animal

Kudus Tottenham The Mighty Spurs Europa League Winners 2025 6.5 million
I expect big things from Kudus at a better club. Had a sensational year last year.

** Palmer Chelsea 10.5 million**
The best player in the premiership on his day. Does not get stressed. The way he passed it into the goal at the world club cup final was like art.

Sarr Crystal Palace 6.5 million
He is my weakest selection but is still strong and will get the odd goal here and there.

Back Line

Virgil Van Dyke Liverpool 6 million
Expect headers from this man. Still solid and one of the best defenders in the league still

Milenkovic Brentford 5.5 million
Another beast good at heading

Van Der Ven The Mighty Spurs Europa League Winners 20254.5 million
Micky has a goal in him. Expect a great season if he goes injury free which is a worry.

Saliba Woolwich 6 million Bench
Chose him for headers and the fact Arsenal are boring and will win 1-0 alot.Hasn't won anything which is a worry

Maguire 4.5 million Utd
Always had a soft spot for Harry. Will get goals in their new system.The trouble is they will concede some as well with Bruno now in midfield and no new number 6 as of yet.

Goalkeeper

Robert Sanchez Crystal Palace 5 million
TBD but I am on him now.

Sub Joe Gauci but again I may change

What is gonna be your lineup??
