MLS Fantasy Boss 2016 Round 1 Team

You’ve read all the advice from the MLS Experts, you’ve chatted with other managers here at MLS Fantasy Boss, and you lurked around /r/FantasyMLS to get a heads up on all new developments. Now it’s time to sit back and relax and enjoy!

I was not great at posting my team last season, so I’ll try to do better this week or at least have one of the MLSFB writers post theirs. So after much thought and chatting with others, this is the team I have finally settled on…unless something changes in the next 30min lol.

Here is the MLS Fantasy Boss Round 1 Team. Go #TeamBoss!

MLS Fantasy Boss 2016 Round 1 Team

Keepers

Gonzalez had great 2015 numbers after he became the Dallas starter last in 2015. If he keeps up that trend his $6.0 price will be well worth it. While I do plan to keep him all year, the interesting Keeper shakeup at DC United led me to grab Worra was my bench player. You never know, he may see some time.

Defenders

This was actually the last position I finalized and just within the last 15min. I started out budget, but upped my prices a little after having to make an injury change in my midfield. I’ve liked Parker all year and will not face Drogba in round 1, Loyd is just a better value than Hedges, and Goodson (my last addition) had great PP90 numbers from 2015 and starts against Colorado. I think each has a good shot at a Round 1 clean sheet.

Midfielders

The 2016 changes really helped Midfielders so I knew I wanted to have 5 from the start of the season. Everyone one of these guys has great attacking potential and could be on set pieces in the right situation. That’s a big bonus and I expect a lot of points from them in round 1. Oh and if you are wondering, Maidana was my 11th hour replacement for Kaka.

Forwards

I feel this will be pretty standard for most teams. Gio was a must have for fantasy last season and the roster changes made it very easy to have him in the lineup even with his away game stretch. Villa has a great fun of home game starting in Round 2 so I’m willing to see how he does against a reworked Chicago in round 1.

Switcheroo

No plans for this week.

Captain

I’m going with Diaz because I don’t think Philly has a defense with enough experience to prevent the, usually, hot opening form that Dallas often possesses.

That’s the MLS Fantasy Boss 2016 Round 1 Team. No don’t go changing your team to be exactly like mine, because there are a lot of viable players and strategies. How does that compare to your team? If you have any questions about my team, or yours, I encourage you to post at /r/FantasyMLS or use the FREE Live Chat just to the right of this post. Posting pictures of your team is encouraged and most people are pretty good about giving constructive feedback.

Good Luck!
