Six more intriguing Fantasy Premier League price reveals including West Ham, Man Utd & Liverpool stars

Price reveals for the new season of Fantasy Premier League began yesterday – yes, we’re officially in the new season already, believe it or not – and we took a look at six of the most intriguing players we have a price point for so far. Well, reveals have continued apace since then, so let’s take a look through a few more and see who the big bargains and bad buys are in the latest batch…

Trent Alexander-Arnold - £8.0m

Still down as a defender, in apparent defiance of both Jürgen Klopp and Gareth Southgate, Alexander-Arnold becomes just the third £8.0m defender in FPL history, after Leighton Baines and Nemanja Vidic. That price jump comes because of his late-season surge in form after being moved up to midfield – and if he remains in that position, he could be a seriously big scorer.

That said, at this price, he’d better be. If he and Liverpool have another slow start to the season, spending all the cash on his services would be a disaster – and remember that he managed 156 points in 2022/23, which is good but no better than several much cheaper defenders. He has crossed the 200 point mark twice before, mind you, and £8.0m is a great price for that sort of score – whether or not you include Alexander-Arnold looks likely to be one of the biggest decisions of pre-season so far.

Darwin Nuñez - £7.5m

Substantially cheaper than last season and sat at a similar price point to the likes of Ivan Toney and Ollie Watkins last year, Nuñez is now a mid-price striker – and it’s easy to imagine him smashing that price to pieces if he hits his stride. With Roberto Firmino moving to Saudi Arabia, it’s likely that the Uruguayan will get a lot of game time in the early stages of the campaign, and if he builds up an early head of steam then he’ll be an absolute steal.

Honestly, all of the early Liverpool price reveals are pretty interesting. Alexis Mac Allister comes in at just £6.0m, which could make him a great pick up if he can take his flashes of form and make them last a little longer, while Andrew Robertson drops to £6.5m, the same as Kieran Trippier – and it’s easy to see him bouncing back from a bad season. The former Hull City man has 180 points twice and crossed 200 points back in 2018/19, so the ceiling there is very high indeed.

Sven Botman - £4.5m

£4.5m for a defender who plays practically every minute and finished in the top 10 highest-scoring defenders last season? This is a remarkably cheap price and one that everyone should be ready to snap him up at.

There has already been some comment about the difficulty of Newcastle United’s early-season fixtures, but while that’s a good reason to hold your powder on a Callum Wilson, say, a £4.5m man is someone you want to more or less set and forget – and Botman is perfectly priced for that, even if you bench him a few times early doors. Barring injury it’s very hard to imagine that he won’t be in a huge number of early teams. By way of comparison, Luke Shaw has gone up to £5.5m this season, and scored five points fewer. This is just a bargain.

Raheem Sterling - £7.0m

Sterling struggled to hit his stride in his first season at Stamford Bridge, not that he was exactly alone in that. Plenty of people have queued up to write him off – there are some who do even when he’s bang in form, of course – but at just 28 years of age it’s pretty hard to imagine that we’re witnessing a permanent decline. There’s plenty more to come from the England international.

Sterling, lest we forget, has passed 200 points three times and was one of the most-picked players in the game not so long ago. Don’t let one dreadful season for Chelsea trick you into thinking he’s finished – at this price, Mauricio Pochettino doesn’t need to improve his side all that much before he becomes an incredible bargain. Of course, if Chelsea continue to be rather rubbish then chances are there will be even better deals out there, but don’t sleep on this one. It’s also worth keeping tabs on Reece James at £5.5m – if Chelsea get back in their groove, he’s one of the best defenders in the FPL game.

Marcus Rashford - £9.0m

The big thing to note here – Rashford is still down as a midfielder. If Manchester United don’t spend big on a central striker, and there’s every chance that they don’t, then Rashford will be the first-choice number nine and that likely means a lot of goals all valued at a point more than they’re arguably meant to be worth.

205 points last season would normally push him up past £10.0m, so for him to still be below that number makes him look like quite the steal – indeed, only Mohamed Salah and Martin Ødegaard managed more points from midfield last term, and he was the fifth highest-scoring player in the game behind only those two plus Harry Kane and Erling Haaland. Given that three of those players will cost a whole lot more, we’d recommend doing everything possible to crowbar Rashford in to your team.

Jarrod Bowen - £7.0m

Bowen didn’t have the best season by his standards but still managed a respectable 145 points (the 16^th best by a midfielder), so his dropping to £7.0m should at least see him added to a few watchlists. West Ham also have a tough start to the season – Chelsea, Brighton, Liverpool and Manchester City all await in the Hammers’ first six fixtures – so perhaps he’s one to bear in mind rather than buy in straight away, but this is still a guy who made it past 200 points in 2021/22.

It looks like there will be quite a few high-ceiling midfielders in the £6.0-7.0m bracket, so Bowen likely won’t find himself picked by too many teams in the early stages of the season, but we’re still suggesting that he’s worth making a mental note of once those dangerous early matches are done with. He’s high floor, high ceiling, and at middling price points you shouldn’t ask for much more than that.
