Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 22 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 22 We are back after what feels like the longest game week EVER! Bloody hell did GW21 take forever to end. Spread over 10 days starting with the rescheduled GW2 fixture Burnley vs Luton which was as boring as it sounds finishing 1-1 and ending with an even more boring 0-0 draw between Brighton and Wolves…………….. Oops sorry I even fell asleep just typing that sentence! Thankfully there were some exciting games in the middle with the returns of KdB with a goal and assist, Toney with a goal and even Hojlund managed to get amongst the FPL points. Take a look below at the tips we have for you and see if they tickle your fancy! Defenders Diogo Dalot (5.1) vs Wolves (a) – Jamie Mc The tr...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 21 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 21 We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year; may all our arrows in 2024 be green. Well from the feast of three game weeks over a thirteen-day period, we go to a famine of just two game weeks throughout the whole of January due to the FA Cup 3rd and 4th Rounds and a Winter break scheduled over a two-week period during game week 21!!! There is further disruption to our squads due to players missing for the African Cup of Nations (13th January 24 – 11th February 24) and the Asia Cup (12th January 24 – 10th February 24). One final point to note…game week 21 deadline is now this FRIDAY 12th January 23 as the Burnley v Luton game has been rescheduled from the following Monday. Goalkeeper Ederson (5.5) ...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 18 GW17 may still be open, at the time of writing, and we do of course wish Tom Lockyer and his family all the best in his recovery. But GW18 begins on Thursday, so we are off again already. This week brings its own challenges, with Man City and Brentford on a blank GW, and this being the first of three GW’s crammed into 13 days. Rest and rotation will of course become an issue along the way, and we cannot really help you with that. What we can help with is a few player picks to get you going on that journey. Goalkeeper: Petrovic (Swirly) Having already been posed the questions of “Who?” and “That’s a funny way to spell Dubravka” (who is also a good shout, of course), I will press ahead and make the case for Djordje Petrovi...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 17 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 17 Ok then, so the past few weeks have been a bit…. well, shit? That’s probably fair to say from a fantasy POV. The average for GW15 was 35, and it was 18 for GW16. 18!!! It does however stand that when everybody does poorly then it is of course all relative. But that doesn’t make it particularly exciting now, does it! Hopefully all that was just a blip and we start seeing some more action over the coming weeks. But probably not for Haaland… which in and of itself may actually mix things up a bit, and if nothing else we may all at least have have a few more quid to spend should we decide to cut ties with the big man for a wee while. Let’s go see where some of that could be spent. Goalk...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 14 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 14 One look at the Site Team sitting pretty near the top of the FPL charts and you’d be forgiven for thinking that this must therefore be THE place to come for weekly Player Tips. Ahem, well… erm. Look, we try. Some weeks we nail it, other weeks we call… GW13! Just as a recap then, we called out Sa who conceded 3 vs Fulham, Bowen who didn’t play due to injury, Awoniyi who got so injured he’s now out for 4 months, and Solanke who did bugger all, despite Bournemouth actually scoring 3! As for defenders we simply said ‘Urrrghhh’. Which, technically speaking, was our best and most accurate shout, albeit also a massively unhelpful one in the process. Let’s go see if we can...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 13 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 13 Those who have already cast an eye over their team ahead of GW13 will no doubt be fully aware that this looks like a difficult week ahead, mainly due to the fixture match-ups of many of the top teams. Man City v Liverpool, Spurs v Villa and Newcastle v Chelsea alone tie up a good many FPL assets to difficult looking games, and that’s not to mention the likes of Arsenal and Man Utd having less than straight-forward away trips. As such you may need one or two different options this week, and so here are our picks for each position for GW13. Goalkeeper – Jose Sa, by Jamie Mc Fantasy Football has been a bit of a struggle for me these past few game weeks. As a non Haaland owner, I dodged a massive bullet ...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 11 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 11 We are spoiling you this week with both a Captains and a Tips Article, this being predominantly due to a Sunday finish/Saturday start between the gameweeks. Thanks to FPL for letting us breathe this week at least. Following on from the excellent Captains Article by Kop and Swirly, we now ask Matt, Stone Frog, Jamie Mc, Rosco, OddDane and Inittowinit to take a look at the options for your precious transfers. They did not disappoint. GOALKEEPER – Sam Johnstone vs Burnley (A) – (Matt) In the last 5 gameweeks, he has picked up a massive 28 points! This included 3 clean sheets in a row but then he conceded in 2 consecutive games but they were against Spurs and Newcastle. 6 goals in the last 2 games isn’t ...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 9 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 9 After yet another long break it may be wise to re-accustom yourselves to who is doing what, when and how. Fear not though, for those who cannot even remember what they had for breakfast this morning – Init, Matt and Rosco are on hand to tell you who you should be considering ahead of GW9. Goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha vs Burnley (H) – Matt X Now I know I’m a sucker for a differential and love giving you all picks that are left-field but while this one may seem like I’ve finally cracked, there’s a sensible reason behind it. This move is primarily a short-term strategy that could save you a valuable 0.1 in your Wild Card drafts for Gameweeks 8, 9, and 10. Most Wild Card drafts I’ve seen for the...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 7 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 7 Roll up, roll up! It’s the first DGW of the season and the circus magician that is Rosco tackles that one head on with enthusiasm and… scepticism. He then juggles West Ham midfielders in tandem with Jamie Mc. Init brings up the rear with a full on Newcastle carnival, a troupe seemingly full of both defending, and attacking showmen. Goalkeeper & Defenders – Newcastle – Burnley (H) – Inittowinit And so they did! So much so that by the 35 minute mark they had two goals and two assists between them, and Trippier made that three assists not long after. Between Botman (4.7m) and Burn (4.5m) (12 pts), and Trippier (6.6m) (18 pts) they got 42 points! Pity those who picked Schar though, a...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 6 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 6 After what could best be described as a sketchy week for most we pull our socks back up and begin again in earnest on Saturday with GW6. Here are our picks for the coming GW, for those looking to make the odd tweak. Mark Flekken (Brentford, 4.5m) Starting off from the back for this week’s choices, with a quick look at goalkeepers. In particular, Mr. Flekken of Brentford who is facing Everton at home. Now we know keeper transfers are considered a bit of luxury transfer so this may not be your go to transfer if you don’t have him, but for now let’s just look at this current week, who might be a preferred option and where that takes us. Let’s look at the opposition first, Everton has scored an impressive two goals fr...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 5 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 5 We have a new format for this week’s tips article. We’ll still be bringing you our usual and more comprehensive tips article every 3-4 weeks, which tends to mention every player under the sun, and also focuses on a more long-term approach. But in the interim, we’ll bring a more frequent, laser-guided article, in which we’ll be looking at 5 or so players with the specific incoming game-week in mind, along with a bonus ‘flying under-the-radar pick. This week Rosco, Jamie Mc, Init, Stone Frog and Dylan are on duty, Let’s go see what they have to say, yeah? Keeper – Bernd Leno – Jamie Mc When initially selecting our squads, there are different strategies that us fantasy football managers use wh...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 3 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 3 Time to look ahead to Gameweek 3 – who has 2 free transfers in their pocket? Or, now that it is Thursday and price swings have occurred who had 2 free transfers and wonders what to do with the other? We got you covered. Goalkeepers & Defenders With the sinister amount of key defender injuries and absentees so far, it seemed prudent to focus on defender tips; but I confess to being somewhat one sided with the tips; left sided to be precise with a plethora of exciting left backs to choose from. This early in the season stats aren’t so useful as the data set is so small and things can change very quickly as teams come into form, so I have mainly focused on the fixtures. First up is the top scoring defender ...[Read More]
