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]

Nice article guys, interesting and different views on how you think it’ll pan out.
I’m a bit worried about all the Giroud love on here..Shrek won’t be happy if he reads this
Nice to see Costa and Fabregas getting on the scoresheet last night in a 3-1 win.
Jovetic with a brace for City Sterling and Henderson with the goals for Liverpool in their 2-2 draw.
photek,
Costa didn’t actually score last night but laid on two goals and apparently was fould for Fabregas’ free kick, So in FPL money, that would be three assists. Encouraging.
ah ok GP, 3 assists is still good money in fpl terms
I hate pre-season! Makes me question just about everything I was thinking.
Mito
. . or does it ?
No not really… I was just being supportive. I was told by administration that I need to show more compassion. They don’t understand South Americans! I feel discriminated against and misunderstood. 😉
Mito,
Be yourself, screw the administration – we love you for who you are.
Hell yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Oh, got to go, my first class of sensitivity training starts today.
Stay strong Mito, I still have painful memories of Tonev’s great pre-season last year. We can help each other get through this tempting but false time!
Anyone considering Bertrand now that he has signed for Southampton on loan for the season? Matt Targett may be a risk now mightn’t he?
JimBobJay
Yeah I think a lot would have sighed when that one went through last night previously thinking Targett was a certain starter. I’d imagine Bertrand wil play as first choice but no guarantees he will be nailed on to play all season.
Sadly.
Great article lads
only question for me, dzeko or lukaku??
hazard,
I’m thinking the same (obviously for once Everton’s fixtures ease up).
Thanks to all involved boys, good little read with my cuppa! Now back to attempt 2231 of selecting a fantasy team! I saw in the FPL rules that they are doing an app this year, anyone heard when its being realised?
NZ,
Morning mate. I think the general consensus is that the app would need to be a lot better than previous version to encourage most to use it. I prefer just using the official site on my smartphone. I would give it a whirl I suppose.
Hello GP. Yup agreed. It would be useful to have a app though but it’s hard to get the features of the full website.
Hi all nothing different on this team really but would appreciate any input
krul ( Foster )
Ferdinand,Bruce,Cameron ( ward,trippier )
Mata,Ramsey,eriksen,fabregas ( siggy)
Jelavic,rooney,costa
geoffreys
Few tweaks maybe to ensure your defenders start (they may well do come the beginning of the season), and that is a very good squad.
Concerns are Bruce and Cameron on potential gametime. Bruce is the biggest worry for me.
