Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 8
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 8 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 8 Having now read both Inittowinitâs tremendous Fixtures article and the Captain’s focus superbly supplied by Rosco, I feel like I have been painted in to a corner a bit this week. If this article was in a boxset this would be a filler episode! So I thought, what should I do if I canât write screeds about players without seeming repetitive and you all falling asleep of boredom? Thenceforth came a condensed Tips article where I selected four quick players by position and did a couple of paragraphs about them â this...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 8
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 8 Welcome to Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 8. Prior to my guest appearance on the FPL Surgery Podcast, I was asked what kind of FPL manager I was; âA conservative manager, prone to occasional, irrational moments of reckless abandonmentâ was my response. Conversely this probably accurately describes my real life persona, although my fellow contributors whoâve actually met me would say its more like; âbloke who witters on a lot and falls asleep at dinnerâ; no less true. So Iâm risk-averse, but on occasion behave a little âcrazyâ. Donât get me wr...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW8
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW8 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW8. Last week was one for the conservative predictors amongst you; 5 games finished 2-0 and only 2 teams score more than 2 goals. The only real surprise was the Hammers 3-1 victory over Man Utd, few saw that one coming, Jose included. Another landslide victory for Man City was predicted but didn’t come to fruition, and Everton finally kept a clean sheet, scoring 3 goals in the process. Other than that it was business as usual. Which is how it was for this weeks winner; DenPerryDidIt on 18pts. So often...[Read More]
MLS Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer GW32
As the end of the season is fast approaching, every week is getting increasingly tense in the fight for a post-season place. The last week was no exception, with some big results. FC Dallas became the first team in the Western Conference to clinch a playoff spot. Amongst the many goals, we witnessed five braces (two of them from former Man United players, Rooney and Ibrahimovic). The latter said that he is now concentrated in his career and in typical Zlatan style stated that he wasnât interested in the FIFA Puskas awards as he wasnât included! https://twitter.com/MLS/status/104607473156327424...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 8
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 8 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 8. Writing a ‘Fixtures Analysis’ article, which essentially looks ahead a few weeks in time, is often a redundant job when the weeks ahead are suddenly punctuated by yet another international (*needless / pointless / money grabbing) (*delete as you see fit) exercise. Let’s face it, who’s going to remember what ‘future’ advice was given here come GW9 which is currently 18 days away?! Now of course any transfers made this week, on the basis of also being ‘f...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 7
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 7 Gameweek 7 gets going with a lunch time affair. The slowly improving Hammers take on the slowly deteriorating Man United. That fixture is followed by six 3pm matches. Arsenal take on Watford, Everton tangle with Fulham, Huddersfield hands over 3 points to Spurs, City put 5 past Brighton, Toon welcome in Leicester and Wolves look to impress again vs Saints. All them fixtures are just the appetisers though, for the match of the day. The late game sees Chelsea welcome in top of the league Liverpool in what we all hope will be a back and fourth battle. S...[Read More]
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW7
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW7 A big fat green arrow greeted us last week as we jumped over 70k in the rankings and back into the top 100k. We got a total of 68 points which was 16 above the official average but that particular measure is starting to become increasingly unreliable as the weeks go by and dead teams begin to gather up along the way like roadside trash. A better measure now is to look at the top 10k as we can assume most of them are still active, the average in that group was 58. In terms of our players Patricio returned just about what we expected having lost his clean she...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 7
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 7 Whoâll be the first manager to get fired? Could the sack race be won by Mark Hughes, as his Southampton side have won one game in six and conceded five goals in their last two? Or perhaps it might be Jose Mourinho as the trials and tribulations of being the Manchester United manager continue, having drawn 1-1 with Wolves and been knocked out of the Carabao Cup? Maybe even Neil Warnock, with no funds available, could be for the chop as his Cardiff team search for that first win and are reminded about the danger of relegation daily? Personally, I fear I would hav...[Read More]
