How to use this list
Budget goalkeepers are the enablers that let you afford premium players elsewhere. Check minutes first: a cheap player who does not start costs you points from the bench as well as the money. Points per game rewards players who return when they play, so it suits picks who fill a regular slot.
Prices move during the season, so a player can leave this list after a couple of rises. If a pick here also ranks well for value and has easy fixtures, a rise is likely, and buying early saves money.
