Considering a roster of two goal keepers, five defenders, five midfielders and three strikers:
The 15 most expensive players will cost 127 million and their points total 722
The 15 highest scorers will cost 112.8 million and their points total 825
The 15 best bargains will cost 92.5 million and their points total 683
Currently, the leading Fantasy manager in the world has 699 points, which means the team of best bargains at 683 would rank 4th in the world and there would still be 7.5 million under the 100 million budget cap.
Good luck and keep your eye out for those bargain point-producers.
Yours faithfully,
Sir John
