Fantasy Premier League Set Piece Takers 2014-15

Fantasy Premier League Set Piece Takers 2014-15

Tips 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.

    Thank you Ed and Flingy, somehow I knew you two would end up together with Cookie presiding over the ceremony.

    Gerrard goal with a Sterling assist sort of. It was a penalty kick. Jones committed the foul.

    Hey Lads,

    I’ve pretty much finalised my side. I just wanted to ask which 4.0 defenders would you use? If none, would it be a horrible idea to downgrade Mata to Young to free up cash so I can upgrade my bench defence?

    This is my team:
    Mannone (Krul)
    Luis, Jones, Davies (Wisdom, Dummett)
    Mata, Erikson, Sigurdsson, Sterling (Davis)
    Lukaku, Costa (vc), Rooney ©

    Cheers for your help lads!!

      Young looks like he may be nailed onto the squad. I might give him a GW or two and see how my overall team is weathering.

      Hi makeya, you’ve copyrighted Rooney? Dam I wanted him too 😉

      Reckon Young still rotates with fatty Shaw to be honest so I’d still go down the Mata route unless you’re feeling über brave.

      • makeya says:

        Haha na sorry dude, Rooney can only be used in my squad now.. Hahaha.

        Ah very good call. I like my team as is, I just wanted to know what that move could do to my team.

        Cheers Init!

    Fed & Lingy,

    Brilliant. Thanks

    Any thoughts on this lot would be greatly appreciated.

    Myhill (Krul)

    Terry / Caulker / Evans (Bruce / Duff)

    Sigurdsson / Mata / Fábregas / Ramsey / Eriksen

    Rooney / Diego Costa (Zamora)

    0.0 in the bank.

      That looks good. If you can find a sure starter for Bruce before the season starts that be good. Assuming you know Myhill probably won’t play. Si you will have to play Krul every GW, but the rest is a strong squad.

      • shite_factor says:

        Cheers Mito.

        Scraping the bottom of the barrell with another playable 4.0 playable def. In my experience, one ‘key’ player will not perform as expected. This seems to go hand in hand with a cheap bandwagon which you’d buy. This wuld free up a 0.5 or 1m and that would sort the 3rd striker (To Bojan) or a different DF.

        Again, Im only at this a couple of years and actually dont support a team so im pretty new to this.
