Kops Fantasy Football Tips Game-week 5 With the Champions League having kicked off it means we are now into the season of rotation and it started last weekend with many fantasy managers suffering a kick in the teeth as Brendan Rodgers chose to rest Raheem Sterling ahead of the visit of the mighty Ludogorets on Tuesday night.

Fantasy Football Captains Picks Gameweek 5 23.93%. That’s almost a quarter. (Grade A, GCSE Maths.) That’s how many voters in last week’s FF247 poll said they planned to captain Raheem Sterling.

Team Talk Fantasy Football GW4 Finally, GW4 is here, thank the Lord or whoever one thanks in this situation.

Kops Fantasy Football Tips Game-week 4 These international breaks become more and more tedious, particularly as they are now spread out over four nights…good one Michel!
