FPL 2026/27: What’s Changed and How We’re Starting the Season

The game’s back. FPL 2026/27 relaunched on July 23 with new scoring, record prices, and, for the first time in years, no Salah at the top. Paul and Luke walk through their full Gameweek 1 squads and talk through the thinking behind every pick.

We cover what’s actually changed this season (live points, rebalanced BPS, the end of the tackle tax), why Haaland’s record £15.5m price is the biggest call on the board, and whether it’s worth starting without him. Plus the risers, fallers, and launch-week value we’re watching: Szoboszlai, Semenyo, Rogers and more.

Luke’s gone 3-5-2 with Bruno on the armband. Paul’s spent to the pound with nothing in the bank. Two very different builds heading into Gameweek 1. Drop your GW1 captain and your one must-have pick in the comments.
