Last week I launched the Price Prediction Challenge, where I asked the Fantasy Football Scout community to predict 2015/16’s prices of 50 key players. A total of 117 answered the challenge and here is the mean average price for each of those listed.

Points of interest

  • The top 5 highest pricers were: 1. Polo… 2. Zero… 3. Bigo1… 4. Baines on Toast… 5. Bedknobs and Broomsticks
  • The top 5 lowest pricers were: 1. Mufc Luhg… 2. Konig Luther… 3. Saint Steve-O… 4. QPR expects… 5. GreenWindmill….. (You optimistic so-and-sos!)
  • The top 5 players most consistently predicted: 1. Aaron Cresswell (5.5)… 2. Costel Pantilimon (5)… 3. John Stones (5.5)… 4. Scott Dann (5)… 5. Branislav Ivanovic (7.5)
  • The top 5 we’re most unsure about: 1. Mario Balotelli… 2. Papiss Cisse… 3. Daniel Sturridge… 4. Harry Kane… 5. Yaya Toure
  • The 46 players already in the game (excluding the newly promoted) will be ยฃ18.5m higher than last season’s starting price, based on the FFScout average. This equates to ยฃ0.4m higher per player – although it should be considered that the players above are typically popular. But could our ยฃ100m be stretched more than ever?

Thank you to everyone who contributed. The third and final part of this series will be released shortly after the official price list, aiming to identify the under-priced gems.

    This is brilliant. I think it might be almost accurate too.

    Reckon the big hitters; Kun, Haz, Kane, Terry, Alexis will be ~0.5m more expensive. Be delighted to get Richie and Redmond for 5.5m each, fear they will be 6m. Who will the latter rotate home fixtures with? Should be good assets.

  3. Bedknobs and Boomsticks

    I thought I'd gone a bit big with some of the strikers....

    Good work, and most of them look pretty close to me.

        In that case rewrite the article with Hazard and Aguero 10m. So if they do, it might as well be in our favour. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    As a Milan fan I am thrilled by the Martinez signing.

      And I'm second highest! Think we can say goodbye to getting the closest to the actual prices.
