Fantasy Football Tips

Fantasy Football Tips The Tips article, which will be released on Thursdays, is where we take a look at which players should be considered for your team, both on a short-term and longer-term basis. While the more obvious selections will, naturally, be included, we will also endeavour to find those hidden bargains and differentials that could set you apart from your rivals and help your performance in your mini-leagues.

So the festive schedule is well and truly upon us and we are all set to embark on a trip that will take us through four game-weeks in just twelve days! In an ideal world you could just sit back and enjoy the ride, but with injuries and rotations to deal with we’re afraid that this is not going to be possible. With the likes of Zabaleta and Aguero already picking up injuries, many fantasy managers already have a headache! Here at FF247 we have put on our Christmas party hats to help you out and below we have outlined a number of players whom we feel can perform over the festive period.

As good old Perry Como once sang, “it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas ” and from a fantasy football point of view that means games, games & more games! You thought you’ve had it tough over the first 15 game-weeks? Well you ain’t seen nothing yet! With so many games in such a short time period the top clubs are likely to rotate their squads, while the smaller clubs who don’t have the luxury of rotating their squads are more at risk of picking up a couple of injuries. Basically it just means more headaches for us fantasy managers! But fear not, below we have detailed a number of options who we feel could deliver over the coming weeks.

GW12 saw Man City destroy Spurs at the Etihad and it would now appear as though AvB has the same problems as us fantasy managers when it comes to spending £100m! That result just illustrates how difficult this season has been from a fantasy perspective as who could have predicted such an outcome prior to the game. Things are not going to get any easier for us over the coming weeks with the likes of Wenger and Mourinho talking about rotating their squads which means that a fully functioning bench is going to be of the upmost importance for us all. With that in mind, we here in FF247 have put on our thinking caps and have come up with a number of players, some obvious, some not so obvious, who we feel could deliver over the coming weeks.

So here we are 11 game-weeks into the season and what have we learned? That fantasy football can be extremely frustrating, but sure we knew that already! The season began in a very topsy turvy fashion making it difficult for many of us to select our teams, but normal order is slowly being restored and the cream is starting to rise to the top. Despite this, it doesn’t make selecting your squad any easier, in fact it could even make things more difficult and because of this we have come up with a number of player suggestions which we hope you will find beneficial in your endeavours to select the perfect squad! Goalkeepers There is no getting away from the fact that United have had, by their own very high standards, a poor start to the season. They have conceded 13 goals in their opening 11 g...[Read More]
