MLS GW14 – Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer
MLS GW14 – Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer Surprise everybody, MLS is back this weekend. Right in the middle of all of the other truly great international competitions going on, we have a round of MLS action that will, by and large, go by unnoticed. Now this isn’t so much a criticism of the MLS schedule and their methodology of trying to compete for TV viewers against better footballing options (though I have made that criticism in other forums) – but this is rather a call to action for those savvy enough to realize that they have an opportunity here to gain ground in the MLS leag...[Read More]
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group F
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group F Even a cursory glance at the teams stats from Group F’s participants is extremely telling. Austria spread the workload around and contribute (not immodestly it should be noted) as a team. Conversely, Portugal (Ronaldo), Iceland (Sigurdsson) and Hungary (Dzsudzsák) are incredibly reliant on a single player’s output. This should make it rather easy to cherry-pick fantasy-worthy members for our squads however, as you’ll see below, Austria’s numbers have been almost too good to dismiss. The team vs individual dynamic poses a fascin...[Read More]
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group E
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group E The group of death some rate it, the silence of the lambs I’ve seen written. For me it’s one of the tightest groups surely, but probably not as difficult as group D which will surely provoke a few surprises and one or two GW1 goalkeeper capos come the next FPL edition (looking at you Init!). Group E offers plenty of attraction points though. There’s the Belgium golden generation (minus R. Lukaku of course) and the Italian… err how do we call it? There’s no name for that. And then there’s Ireland who will be fighting for their lives and Sweden wh...[Read More]
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group D
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group D This article comes to you much like my past season – full of the best intentions but ultimately hampered by time differences and life in general. Those of you playing the game outside of Europe who have managed to get a good handle on things, I do salute you as it has turned out to be harder than I imagined. Three days late or not though, here’s a quick perusal of the options in Group D. Before we begin though let’s have a quick recap of the lead-up to the tournament. England were the only team with a 100% record, and it was tough go...[Read More]
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group B
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group B Welcome to Group D. Oh no, sorry E. Oh hang on no it’s D and E. Yeah? No?! B?!?!?! But I’d prepped D and E… Hey, ok, no worries. Gun for hire and all that. B it is then I guess… Let’s get the important info out of the way here (the only info I actually know about B as I sit down to write this. I can tell you all you’d ever need to know about D and E if you like though!). Apparently Group B comprises of England, Russia, Slovakia and Wales. That’s where I’m at. Let’s write this ‘live’ the...[Read More]
MLS GW13 – Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer
MLS GW13 – Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer Let’s be honest here, this article doesn’t need to be very long because there isn’t a whole lot that needs to be said about this GW in FMLS. For starters, if you love to watch football, why wouldn’t you be watching the international friendlies that are going off on Wednesday instead of a few MLS games? Spain kicks off the day, Poland v Netherlands and a Belgium match will round out the middle of the schedule, and then the night will be capped off with Mexico v Chile? C’mon. It’s not even a question for even casual fans. And then you have to tak...[Read More]

Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group C
Euro 2016 Fantasy Football – Group C Group C contains one team with a vast European Championship history in Germany who have played 43 finals matches, which is a tournament record. In stark contrast the other three teams have played a collective six games between them at finals. It should be no surprise therefore that the three-times winners should be strong favourites to top this group with relative ease. The sliver of doubt here though is that their neighbours Poland actually triumphed over them in qualifying 2-0 in Warsaw at the beginning of qualification before succumbing to the Germ...[Read More]
