    The Gameweek 38 Effect – Revisited

    Filed under: Fantasy Football Tips, Statistics - Posted by: da Beeeez

    A little over a year ago, I took a look at clean sheets and the final gameweek, identifying the possibility of a “gameweek 38″ effect. In a nutshell, the data suggested that in comparison to the season as a whole, the likelihood of a clean sheet may decrease in the season’s final gameweek. Supporting this [...]

    The Technical Area – Mancini’s Middle Men

    Filed under: The Watchlist - Posted by: da Beeeez

    Rotation and defensive tactics have limited investment this season in Manchester City players not named Carlos Tevez or Joe Hart. Yaya Toure has reached double-digit ownership during the second half of the season as a budget buy and Aleksandar Kolarov saw a mini-bandwagon that lost a wheel (or two) before it ever reached full speed, [...]

    Scouting the Doubles – Stoke City

    Filed under: Scouting The Doubles - Posted by: da Beeeez

    Stoke City soar into their double gameweek 34 fresh off the demolition of Bolton in last Sunday’s FA Semi Final. While it is possible they might be distracted by the subsequent Wembley date in May, their mid-table position still only finds them only 5 points clear of relegation, giving them little room for comfort just [...]

    Scouting the Doubles – Arsenal

    Filed under: Scout Reports, Scouting The Doubles - Posted by: da Beeeez

    What a difference a couple of months make. While a quartet of trophies may have always been a pipe dream, Arsenal were neck-deep in four competitions as recently as mid-February. The vision of four trophies has quickly evaporated, however, with the Premier League title now their only remaining target. Even that now looks something of [...]

    Scouting the Doubles – Stoke

    Filed under: Scout Reports, Scouting The Doubles - Posted by: da Beeeez

    Tony Pulis’ squad ride into the double Gameweek on a high note, having overpowered Sunderland in the early kick-off last Saturday, in a 3-2 victory that seemed to unleash the goal frenzy that continued for the rest of the day. Stoke’s form has been erratic at best however, and it’s difficult to get too excited [...]

    Scouting the Doubles – Wigan

    Filed under: Scout Reports, Scouting The Doubles - Posted by: da Beeeez

    The eloquent and confident Roberto Martinez had big plans and high hopes when the season began, and must be scratching his head at finding his squad nestled comfortably in 18th place for yet another relegation battle. And had you enquired early in the season about a double Gameweek for Wigan in January, the feedback would [...]

    The Watchlist – Robert Huth

    Filed under: Fantasy Football Tips, Scout Reports, The Watchlist - Posted by: da Beeeez

    Referred to by some as the “Berlin Wall” the mountain of a defender known as Robert Huth may need a new nickname – one to emphasise his attacking abilities rather than (or at least in addition to) his imposing defensive stature. Huth has emerged as Fantasy gold in the first half of the season – [...]
