Meet the Manager #13 – Sean Tobin


Forging close friendships with other Fantasy managers has been instrumental in Sean Tobin’s success and enjoyment of both Fantasy Premier League and Sky Fantasy Football over the years. 

In our latest Meet the Manager interview we catch up with Sean at a crucial time in his Fantasy career, after reaching the summit of our Hall of Fame and currently in a career-high 18thspot in FPL and 14thin Sky.

With five top 5,000 finishes in FPL and reaching the top 50 in Sky in 2017/18, this season is no mere fluke.

However, modest Sean is still convinced he’s simply got lucky over the years.

During our 30-minute chat, Sean reveals how the counsel of fellow Fantasy managers that he has known for years has been pivotal to his strong finishes each year.

He also explains how his faith in a 3-4-3 formation and reticence to back a five-man midfield has helped drive this success.

Correcting mistakes swiftly has also been a strong ethos to his Fantasy management and it is no coincidence that his only poor FPL campaign was due to being too slow to react to emerging player trends. 

The chat with Sean is available to view on Youtube here and in the embedded video below.

    Was thinking of Alonso > Laporte for the DGW 25, one BGW(27) for another, looked like a good plan.... But then I saw CHE has HUD at home...
