One fixture stands out above all others this weekend.  Despite Southampton sorting themselves out since the last time, and nobody is expecting a repeat, Leicester should still have a good go at smashing them all over the place.  3-0 seems like a not-unreasonable prediction. My problemo: I already have 3 Leicester players and Maddison isn’tContinue reading “GW22 Preview: Am I Madd?”

Having decided not to make any transfers, I was obviously fairly satisfied with my team going into GW21.  My only doubt was whether I’d made the right call on Pope over Schmeichel and which of my bench would score points. Strong pedigree for bench points across the board there. First up, the early kickoffs areContinue reading “GW21: Happy New YEAAHH!”

For the first week of the new year, no fixtures really jump out as ones I want to bring players in for.  A few players who are tempting: Maddison – he really is very very good, although I already have 3 Leicester players so I’d have to use 2 transfers to get him in, andContinue reading “GW21 Preview: New Year, Return to Mediocrity?”

TL:DR Version.. GW11: Tomori in for Matip. Everything works in my favour. Prince Charming scores and gets a clean sheet. 14 points for him. Vardy scores again, obviously. 5 in 3 since coming into my team. Abraham scores and gets an assist. 12 points for him. Then first sub John Lundstram scores twice and endsContinue reading “A brief-as-possible recap, Part 2 (GW11-20)”

TL:DR Version.. GW2: Pukki! I was right! But I bottled captaining him. Went with Salah who did nowt. Firmino and Sterling scored at least, but other than that it was a couple of assists from my MF and a very poor show from my DFs.52 points, up into the top million. GW3: WILDCARD ALREADY!  NothingContinue reading “A brief-as-possible recap, Part 1 (GW2-10)”

Note: Don’t worry, I will do a much shorter recap of the other 19 weeks Having made my predictions, it was time to choose the potential Absolute Legends who would be pulling on the [blank colour] shirt of Westermania in this surely breakthrough season. Sterling and Salah, obviously, only a fool wouldn’t have both ofContinue reading “FPL 19/20: Gameweek 1”

Traditionally I am a very slow starter in FPL – I don’t do my homework, I make wild predictions about the season to come and I let my heart rule my head.  But not this year, no no, I will be better maybe. Before the start of each season, a group of friends and IContinue reading “Pre-Season Predictions”
