FPL Fixtures Analysis Gameweek 5
FPL Fixtures Analysis Gameweek 5 2016-17 Welcome to FPL Fixtures Analysis Gameweek 5 2016-17. There’s a great Louis CK bit at the beginning of one of his specials where he acknowledges that he has trouble knowing what to say to start his show. It’s tough. Too much preamble and it sounds forced, but not enough banter at the top makes it look like you just don’t care about proper etiquette as you talk to your audience. I kind of wanted to get this intro right because it’s a huge shift for me on this site. Starting this round, I’ll be taking over the Fixtures article on a weekly basis. I know, ri...[Read More]
Fantasy Premier League Captain Picks Game-week 7
Fantasy Premier League Captain Picks Game-week 7 Welcome to Fantasy Premier League Captain Picks Game-week 7. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Captain Picks article for Gameweek 7! This GW has several favourable matchups as most of the ‘top’ sides face weaker opposition – the one exception is at White Hart Lane where Spurs and Manchester City, the only two undefeated teams, face each other on Sunday afternoon. Some of the premium options, such as Ibrahimovic and Hazard, have been sold by plenty after failing to deliver in their last few matches, but with favourable matchups thi...[Read More]
Live Match Chat Game-week 4 FPL News
Live Match Chat Game-week 4 FPL News Well look what we got here to get us rolling again. A lunch time kick-off that probably pits the best team versus the second best team, who is who though, remains to be seen. Bitter rivals Jose and Pepe square off in the Manchester Derby, in what hopefully is the renewal of the animosity between the two. That is followed by six 3pm games. Wheelchair less Arsenal welcome in Southampton, Bournemouth will look to penetrate Pulis and his men and pop their cherry, Burnley takes on surprising Hull. In other action Boro looks to get a shot on goal this GW when the...[Read More]
Around the Grounds FPL Team News Gameweek 4
Around the Grounds FPL Team News Gameweek 4 Welcome to Around the Grounds FPL Team News Game-week 4. Urgh those distasteful international breaks. Well this one is over and we have four weeks of FPL to enjoy before the next one, so out with the old, in with the new, let’s get it on. And get it on we will with a monster game-week which starts off with the biggest game of the season so far – the Manc derby at Old Trafford on Saturday lunchtime. If that wasn’t enough then we have no less than six 3pm matches to really get our teeth into. Arsenal and West Ham are both at home in t...[Read More]
MLS GW31 Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer
MLS GW31 Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer I’m trying to find a polite way to describe how the last round of MLS action felt. It’s my nature to be…slightly off-color, and I’m trying to fix that. And here I am thinking, should I say that the last round was a real ‘punch in the gut’? Was it maybe a ‘bell ringer’ of a hit? And then I thought no, it was a kick to the junk. That’s all I got. That’s as polite as I can describe it. The game is infuriatingly erratic. Even your best research coupled with your best guesses can’t help you to see something like Seattle winning 4-2 in LA (and Lodeiro ...[Read More]
FF247 Site Team Game-week 4 FPL Tips
FF247 Site Team Game-week 4 FPL Tips Welcome to the FF247 Site Team Game-week 4 FPL Tips article. It seems a long time ago, but GW3 turned out ok for us, not spectacular, but ok. We scored 53 points vs an average of 42. That leaves us on 194 points so far with an overall rank of 22,450. As for the team itself last week we left McAuley points on the bench, for the 3rd week in a row! Lesson learnt? Clearly not and I think we can all predict what will happen this week, when/if we play him. At least we had Foster in goal and his clean sheet contributed – in fact only Souare let us down at th...[Read More]
FPL Fixtures Analysis Gameweek 7
FPL Fixtures Analysis Gameweek 7 2016-17 Welcome to FPL Fixtures Analysis Gameweek 7. It’s really tough to write an article following a week when things just didn’t quite go to script. I mean, who are we kidding here? Did we think that Man City would win away to Swansea? Yeah, of course. But did you think that Everton would get blanked against Bournemouth? Did anybody think that Liverpool would somehow manage to score 5 goals with seemingly 8 different goalscorers (not one of them named Firmino)? And how about West Ham? Surely with all of that talent they could’ve put forth at least a single g...[Read More]
Fantasy Premier League – International Round-Up
Fantasy Premier League – International Round-Up [three_fourth padding=”0 20px 0 0″] Embed from Getty Images [/three_fourth]Hello you global fantasy managers out there, how happy and enthusiastic about national team footy are you all? A lot, I rather watch Andorra vs Latvia ahead of any EPL game any day of the week, I hear? Bored off, I hear? Absolutely annoyed by it really, I hear? Well, well, surely we all like to see our country battle against other nations but maybe they should only do it after our dear FPL season is over and not just after it began! F**! Just now that we ...[Read More]
