⏰ Everton 3-1 Newcastle United
⚽️ Barry (£5.5m), Ndiaye [p] (£6.0m), George (£5.5m) | Barnes (£6.5m)
🅰️ Armstrong (£5.0m) (x2), Dewsbury-Hall (£6.5m) | Murphy (£5.5m)

📰 Everton XI :
Travers
Patterson (Röhl 52’) | Tarkowski | Keane (O’Brien 83’) | Mykolenko (Aznou 74’)
Hackney (Foster 83’) | Dewsbury-Hall (Alcaraz 63’) | Armstrong
Ndiaye (Dibling 63’) | Barry (Beto 63’) | George

📰 Newcastle United XI :
Hornicek
Shahar (Miley 46’) | Thiaw (Pivas 46’) | Botman (Johnson 46’) | Hall (Charlton 46’)
Bamba (Steur 46’) | Joelinton (Ramsey 46’)
Elanga (Murphy 46’) | Wissa (Willock 46’) | Touré (Barnes 46’)
Osula (Woltemade 46’)

💡 FPL Note: Iliman Ndiaye (£6.0m) firmly planted his flag as a prime GW1 differential by taking and scoring a 36th-minute penalty. Crucially, he stepped up to take it while Thierno Barry (£5.5m) was on the pitch—an important plot twist since Barry was the one who scored from the spot in Everton's last friendly against Stuttgart. Tyrique George (£5.5m) also got on the scoresheet to seal the 3-0 win, putting his name in the mix as a budget midfield enabler. For Newcastle, Matthias Jaissle heavily rotated his squad at half-time, meaning key assets like Anthony Elanga (£5.5m) and Yoane Wissa (£6.0m) only logged 45 minutes of action.

Post from the official FPL account, 4 points for defcons for defenders confirmed? Or is it just a mistake?


Maybe that's why Defenders are super expensive this season....

PL Team PreSeason Roundup 🌐 [14/08/2026]

⏰ Coventry City 2-0 AS Monaco
⚽️ Simms, Tchaouna
🅰️ Yirenkyi (x2)

📰 Coventry City XI :
Rushworth
van Ewijk | B. Thomas | Amenda | Dasilva
Onyeka (Torp 88') | Yirenkyi (Hamer 65’) | Grimes
Tchaouna | Simms | Thomas-Asante


💡 FPL Note: Coventry City looked incredibly sharp in their final pre-season tune-up under Frank Lampard. Ellis Simms opened the scoring early in the 12th minute, making a solid case as a budget forward option for GW1. The standout performer, however, was new Ghanaian signing Caleb Yirenkyi, who dominated the midfield and assisted both Simms and Loum Tchaouna before making way for Gustavo Hamer in the 65th minute. Defensively, Carl Rushworth anchored the backline to secure a clean sheet, putting his name on the radar for managers seeking an emerging starting goalkeeper.

PL Team PreSeason Roundup 🌐 [15/08/2026]
​⏰ Chelsea 3-1 Real Sociedad
⚽️ Rogers, João Pedro (2)
🅰️ Palmer , James, Gusto

​📰 Chelsea XI :
Sánchez (Penders 61’)
Fofana | Lacroix (Acheampong 62’) | Colwill (Hato 76’) | Palestra (Chavarría 76’)
James (c) (Fernández 62’) | Caicedo (Lavia 75’)
Neto (Estêvão 76’) | Palmer (Gittens 76’) | Rogers (Gusto 62’)
João Pedro

✍️ FPL Notes :
Rogers scores on debut (11’). João Pedro brace continues red-hot form. James assists the second. Strong XI with new signings Lacroix & Rogers starting; Enzo, Gusto, Lavia, Estêvão & others get solid minutes off the bench. Final pre-season game done.

PL Team PreSeason Roundup 🌐 [15/08/2026]

⏰ AC Milan 4-2 Manchester United
Big Chances: 6-3
Shots (On Target): 13 (5) - 10 (4)

⚽️ Maguire, Dorgu
🅰️ Fernandes
❌ Missed Pen : Fernandes

📰 Manchester United XI:
Lammens
Mazraoui (Dalot 61') | Maguire | Heaven (Martinez 61') | Shaw
Santos (Mainoo 61') | Tielemans
Amad (Lacey 61') | Fernandes | Dorgu (Rashford 61')
Cunha (Mbeumo 61')


💡 FPL Note: That's the 2nd penalty miseed by Bruno in one week... Mbeumo played only 30 mins but he is still likely to start GW1... Those who picked Maguire/Shaw willreconsider their options after this game

#FPL #FPL_PreSeason #ManUtd

PL Team PreSeason Roundup 🌐 [15/08/2026]

⏰ Eintracht Frankfurt 0-7 Brentford
Big Chances: 0-4
Shots (On Target): 13(5) - 18 (9)

⚽️ Schade (2), Sangaré, Thiago (2), Ouattara, Lewis-Potter
🅰️ Collins, Schade, Kayode, Schade, Jensen, Thiago

📰 Brentford XI:
Kelleher
Kayode (Hickey 64') | Ajer (Pinnock 71') | Collins | Lewis-Potter (Henry 79')
Janelt | Sangaré (Anthony 71') | Jensen (Yarmoliuk 71')
Ouattara | Thiago (Wilson 71') | Schade (Damsgaard 71')

💡 FPL Note: Absolute thrashing. Schade and Thiago both scored twice – huge boost for their ownership. Lewis-Potter and Ouattara also on the scoresheet. Brentford look extremely sharp heading into the season. Anyone thinking about Thiago now? 😒


⏰ Freiburg 3-0 Crystal Palace
Shots (On Target): 20 (13) - 10 (3)

📰 Crystal Palace XI:
Henderson (Benítez 61')
Canvot | Richards (Sosa 90') | Riad
Mingueza | Wharton | Kamada (Doucouré 90') | Mitchell (Benamar 91')
Sarr (Nketiah 77') | Strand Larsen | McNeil

💡 FPL Note: Flat performance with no goals. Back three solid enough but Palace created little. Sarr played 77 mins, Mitchell created chances. Assets look skippable for GW1 – wait and watch.



⏰ Borussia Mönchengladbach 2-1 Aston Villa
⚽️ McGinn
🅰️ -
🟥 Red Cards: Alysson

📰 Aston Villa XI:
Bizot (Wright 46')
Nedeljkovic (Cash 46') | Mings | Lindelöf (Torres 54') | Lynch (Buendía 46')
Bogarde (Kamara 46') | Barkley (Jimoh-Aloba 86')
Alysson | Hemmings (McGinn 46') | Rowe (Maatsen 46')
Abraham (Burrowes 54')

💡 FPL Note: Unai Emery clearly utilized this match to give minutes to the fringes of his squad, resting almost all of his premium FPL assets from the starting lineup. John McGinn (£5.5m) made an impact off the bench by scoring in the 69th minute, while key starters like Pau Torres, Matty Cash, and Ian Maatsen all gained second-half fitness.



⏰ Union Berlin 2-4 Ipswich Town
⚽️ Clarke, Emersonn, O'Shea, McAteer
🅰️ -

📰 Ipswich Town XI:
Scherpen
O'Shea (Johnson 83') | Diop (Kipré 73') | Greaves | Davis (Furlong 67')
Lukić (Humphreys 67') | Núñez
Egeli (McAteer 73') | Clarke (Mehmeti 73') | Maeda (Philogene 46')
Emersonn (Akpom 67')

💡 FPL Note: Strong attacking display with 4 goals. Clarke and Emersonn started well, McAteer scored off the bench. O'Shea with a goal from defence. Cheap Ipswich assets look interesting differentials for early GWs.



⏰ Mainz 2-1 Bournemouth
⚽️ Evanilson
🅰️ -

📰 Bournemouth XI:
Petrovic
Smith | Silva (Stevens 82') | Hill (Diakité 46') | Truffert
Cook | Tóth
Tavernier | Kluivert (Rees-Dottin 88') | Rayan (Gannon-Doak 72')
Evanilson (Jebbison 72')

💡 FPL Note: Evanilson scored the equaliser and remains a strong GW1 option. Cherries dominated possession but were clinical only once. Defensive rotation and late concession – proceed with caution on back-line assets.
