Here’s the return for fantasy premier league GW2 of the bookies team, the underlying stats team and the new bandwagons team to assess some alternate FPL strategies
fantasy premier league GW2 – the alternate FFGeek teams
Here we look at 3 different ways of setting up your FPL team. I really enjoy this as everything is picked by formula so no procrastination required.
The bookies team
The bookies team finished with an OR of 6k last season
The bookies team was set up by picking the best anytime goal scoring odds for attacking players and clean sheet odds for defenders for GW1 within a defined team structure. In the GW1 team there were no double ups allowed in attack or defence.
2 transfers are made every 2 weeks unless there’s an injury. The 2 transfers will seek to improve the overall odds for the 11 players forecast to play. The captain will be the player with the best ATGS odds.
GW1: 69 pts OR: 958k TV: £100.1m
Here’s the GW1 points:
Here’s the lineup for GW2. No transfers.
The shots in the box team
Last season the underlying stat was shots on target. That team finished with a 77k OR. This season we’ve gone for shots in the box as the underlying stat of choice. The GW1 team took the players with the best shots in the box stats from last year within a certain team structure. Defence has aimed to be set and forget.
Captain choice will be the player highest in the captain polls. Transfers will be 2 every 2 weeks except for injury replacing the lowest rank player for stats with the highest rank within a general team structure
GW1 pts: 44 OR: 3.153 million TV £100.1
Here’s the GW1 points:
Here’s the GW2 lineup. No transfers
The bandwagons team
This is a new team this season. The GW1 team is the highest ownership players again within a team structure. Except when there’s injuries, 2 transfers every 2 weeks replacing the most transferred out players with the most transferred in. Transfers will be done early in that week in order to maximise team value. The captain will be the highest player in the polls.
GW1 pts: 68 OR: 1.039 million TV £100.1
Here’s the GW1 points:
Here’s the lineup for GW2.
The injured Zaha was transferred out for the most transferred in midfielder within the price range which was Xhaka believe it or not.
