Managers of the Round Table – Fantasy Premier League 2014-15
We have gathered up six prestigious members / writers around Mito’s Round Table to answer a few quick fire questions in the lead up to the opening of the FPL season. They have been asked to make choices over some of the same key questions many of us are currently facing. As one would expect we got a wide range of varying answers, everything from a unanimous decision on formation to six different choices for Flop of the Year. See what our esteemed panel answered and please share your answers and views below, including that tricky last question. And don’t be shy; they sure weren’t when expressing their man crush.
Below is a self-described introduction to their FPL playing style.

Chins and bellies Planner. If in doubt, I save my FT. Like the odd punt. Do what the country music tells me.[/one_half]

Migs Play hard in the beginning, then more cautious towards the end.[/one_half_last]

Hey Guys, suggestions please,
My team:
Mannone (Krul-on rotation)
Caulker Jones Debuchy (Mariappa, Bruce)
Henderson Siggurdson Mata Ramsey Yaya
Costa Rooney (Zamora)
3-5-2, or shall I make it 3-4-3 with a strong forward attack?
Constantine,
I like it all bar Zamora, who I appreciate is a filler, but if you need him one week due to unexpected rotation, will he stand up for you? Unlikely in my opinion.
I do like the rest of your squad though
Thans a lot Cookie. Yupp, Zamora is vestigial part of the squad. He might be of use, which the future shall decide. Still, any suggestions against zamora?
Anyone really!!
You could d’grade one of your defenders to raise 1mln to turn Zamora into Bojan –
you can then rotate Bojan perfectly with Siggy – go check out the rotation analysis article from Mito, explains it excellently.
Alternatively you could d’grade Henderson to a cheaper mid
I believe henderson is going be the starter for most of the matches for rodgers..moreover he(rodgers) has given him a target of scoring 10 goals this season. So, we might see him in the scoring lines and creating chances. But, ya bojan shall be a good alternative.thanks anyways.
ok attempt number…a lot
Howard (Myhill)
Jagielka Sagna Mertesacker (Cameron McShane)
Barkley Ramsey Mata Herrera Nasri
Rooney Dzeko (Cole)
3-5-2 or 3-4-3
Hi would really appreciate some feedback on my team as it stands:
De gea , Krul
Debuchy, luis, kompany,lovren,(hangeland)
Tadic, mata, fabregas, (rodwell), (el ahmedi)
Costa, bojan, rooney
Many thanks!
@Glyn, I was wondering where you were at. Looks like you stumbled onto an old chat. I don’t necessarily disagree with any of your players yet I still feel you have too much money tied up in the back. I would consider dropping either Lovren or Kompany for a 4.0-4.5 defender and upgrading a mid to a Siggy/Montero type.
