A very successful week for the 10 top FPL managers with all 10 getting green arrows. 8 of these 10 managers used the free hit chip and their teams will now revert back to the pre Free Hit team. Therefore there’s little to be learned from showing those free hit teams. So our fantasy premier league GW36 tips article where we analyse the teams of 10 top FPL managers this week is very shortened. As you may know if you’re a regular reader, these 10 managers have not finished outside the overall rank of the top 10k in the last 3 seasons. Considering how variable the last 3 years have been this is remarkable consistency and shows an ability to adapt strategy in different seasons. It also gives you a view other than my own on strategy and player selection.
