Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW36 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. Gameweeks 34 and 35 were certainly game changers for our leaders and for those who follow this article week after week, you’ll know that many of the leaders (prior to GW 33) held top spots for many, many weeks. For the first time this season, the game has significantly changed. This week the only player to have a spot in the top ten for more than 2 weeks is our current leader Dimitris Gavles who has held a top position for ONLY 3 weeks. ALL of our (ex)leaders…all of the players we have been watching and tracking for nearly the entire season, are now below the top ten ranking.

Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW33 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. What have the leaders been up to and what will our leaders being doing as we edge towards the end of the season? Did any of the top 10 deploy a wildcard in an effort to stack their team for the upcoming week? The results may surprise you. How are our current leaders going to approach GW 34? While we knew last week that only a few of our leaders had a remaining wildcard, only one of those players still remains in the top ten. The player in the 7th position has played his wildcard with the presumed intent on playing his benchboost next week. Yet, unfortunately, this week has really played a toll on the points which he has accumulated as he is approximately 20 points off those leaders who ...[Read More]

What have the leaders been up to and what will our leaders being doing as we edge towards the end of the season? Let’s take a look and see what trends if any ensued. Who were the most popular players chosen by the top ten for Gameweek 29? Goalkeepers: This week was rather interesting as our top managers selected 7 different goalkeepers.

Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW26 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. I must admit that after watching the Aston Villa vs Liverpool match, I was super frustrated with Firmino only bringing in 6pts. With all the goals going in, I was hoping for more as he was my captain pick! What was very interesting in doing my weekly research was that 8 of the top 10 only averaged 4 points for their captain picks. Let’s take a closer look to see how the leaders performed.

Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW25 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. For this week’s publication, I sit at my computer reviewing and reflecting upon EPL results while my family and the rest of America is engrossed in the 4th quarter of the Superbowl. I know some folks may think I’m odd but personally, I am indeed more curious to understand Firmino’s rise to success rather than the outcome of Manning’s quarterback performance. Blasphemous to many I know! Having now, perhaps shared too much information, let’s take a look at the top trends for gameweek 25.

Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW23 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. Just in case you were interested, this article was started in Shanghai, edited in Detroit and completed in NYC.

Let’s take a deeper look to see what our fantasy leaders are doing in order for us to better assess and plan any possible next moves.

So, let’s take a look at what the leaders doing.

Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW15 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. While Crystal Palace and Everton have yet to play, I certainly have been kicking myself as I decided this was the week to bring in Kolarov (1 point). I also thought that this was a great time to bring in Ozil and that wouldn’t have been too bad if I hadn’t traded Arnautovic (16 points) while taking a 4 point hit. Well let’s take a look at our new leaders and see what they have been up to. [divider_1px] Who was the most captained player by the top ten for Gameweek 15? This week, 30% of the top ten managers selected Ozil (12 points) while another 30% selected Ighalo (20 points).

Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW16 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. Once again, the gameweek has not yet ended as Leicester and Chelsea have yet to play, but nonetheless it’s always interesting to take a peek at the current trends amongst this week’s leaders. It is interesting to note that sometimes, because of the weekly fluctuation of leaders, we will see variance in the top selected picks. This week however, while leaders changed, top selections remained quite constant. Let’s take a look.
