Fantasy Premier League Set Piece Takers 2014-15
Ok then so we saw quite a few requests for an updated ‘Set-Piece takers’ list on the comments recently and it jogged our memory that we hadn’t done one and as ever we took notice and decided to take action. We had a quick look around the offices of FF247 and found Eddy and Flingy slumped in the corner playing cards and a light bulb came on! So suddenly Eddy became our roving reporter and was whisked around the world to see all of the pre-season friendlies he could manage in order to bring you the latest set-piece table, while we locked Flingy in a darkened room, with Google as his only friend, to bring you the stats on last seasons set-piece specialists. Enjoy…
Please find below the FF247 Set Piece Takers List for 2014/15. This list is a guide that we hope will help you select players that have the potential to bring in goals and crucial assist points. The table is based on information gathered from last season’s games, Opta stats, pre-season friendlies and FF247 community input.
The article itself is archived under the tab at the top of the page entitled Tips/News and is linked under the drop down box ‘FPL SET-PIECE TAKERS 2014-15’ so you can refer back to it at any time, as are many of our other articles and helpful tools such as Fixture Tracker and Weekly Tips.
Please be aware that this list is subject to change due to player injuries, drop in form, suspensions, manager whims, etc. The list will be updated throughout the season and as ever we welcome anybody in our community to inform us if you are aware of any updated roles or indeed anything you think we have got wildly inaccurate! You’re not perfect and neither are we 😉
Players are listed in order of priority for each particular role –

So while Eddy was jet setting around the globe, Flingy was busy squirreling away to bring us the highlights of last season’s set-piece stats which are below for your perusal. The first deals with the players who had the ‘Most’ in each section. The second examines the teams themselves. We hope you find these both informative and helpful. There are obviously some players in there who are no longer with us (gone abroad, not died) and there are new players at some clubs who will take over some of these duties.
PLAYERS
TEAMS
Thanks for reading Fantasy Premier League Set Piece Takers 2014-15. These tips were brought to you by Eddy and Flingy.
any thoughts/comments on this team would be great. (first draft)
Krul, Manone
Debuchy, Mariappa, Caulker, Filipe Luis, Rosenior
Sánchez, Mirallas, Shelvey, Hoilett, Mata,
Jovetic, Rooney, Giroud. 1M left.
thanks
Hi Chaz, be aware that Mariappa may be out of favour. He’s not playing today and we’ve just asked a Palace fan who thinks he’s lost his place. I’d look at working in at least 1 Chelsea mid or fwd if you can given their opening fixtures.
I thought it was after asking a Palace fan that you thought Mariappa WAS nailed lol.
It’s Jerome Williams who’s featured at LB on occasion on pre-season. He’s a youth player and not even listed in FPL, so hopefully Mariappa will be the starter.
Could you please rate my team???

Courtois
Shaw – Debuchy – Lovren – Trippier
Ramsey – A. Sánchez (V) – Eriksen
