Possible Differential Picks for the FPL Season
Possible Differential Picks for the FPL Season Picking a high-scoring player ignored by most other teams can have a massive impact on your FPL performance, whether it’s propelling you up the overall rankings or enabling you to power ahead of your rivals in a mini-league. There are times where you don’t want to play it cute and look for differentials for the sake of being different. Sure, Joel Matip is a whole £2.0m cheaper than Trent Alexander-Arnold, but TAA’s assist record and safe starting spot makes him the best option from the Liverpool defence. The same is true of premi...[Read More]
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW1
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW1 Knee deep in… It seems like only yesterday that we were picking our GW38+ team… oh, hang on. Well, we might not be refreshed but we are certainly back regardless and much like many an FPL manager we have been struggling to find those dirt cheap defenders, whilst being knee deep in premium mids and wondering how on earth we then go about accommodating the Manchester contingent once they bother to grace us with their presence. Let’s go and see how we have decided to tackle it all, but first a quick recap on how last season ended for us: 2019/20 Result C...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 1
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 1 Captain choices often make or break a game-week, nail it and you can be in the forties before you even begin to look at the rest, fail it and that 2 or 4 pointer just stares back at you all week long, haunting your very being. It’s probably the one decision you flip-flop on the most too, especially when you own 2 or 3 of the (seemingly) obvious picks for that particular week. It’s crystal ball time really but it can also be an informed choice, you simply need to learn to live with the consequences, but if you can back up your decision with ...[Read More]
FPL Tips Gameweek 1
FPL Tips Gameweek 1 2019/20 had it all, VAR, Covid-19 and Liverpool won their first title in 30 years. What can we expect from 2020/21? Well neither VAR nor Covid-19 have gone away. Neither have Liverpool! Can they repeat last season’s heroics? I’m not so sure, but that’s for another day. What of FPL? Apparently, the prices have gone up and we can’t afford all of the players we want. I must be suffering from Déjà vu. In all seriousness though, we moan about the prices at the beginning of every season and once GW1 starts, we find something else to moan about. Something else that never changes i...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 1
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 1 No pressure! Here I am with the first of the ‘traditional’ articles run at FF247, at a time where there is still great upheaval from the ‘C’ word – by ‘C’ word, I, of course, mean Covid-19 and not the politician who first comes to your mind! However, at least we have the benefit of the return to three substitutions, along with a more normal-looking – albeit delayed – calendar. That is great news to me anyway, as that crazy period when the league restarted, where I was also on holiday and had less FPL focus, saw my rank plummet to the worst finish in...[Read More]
