Meet the Manager #3 – Will Thomas

1,996 Comments

Will Thomas is among Fantasy Football’s rare polymaths, with the ability to excel in two different formats, Fantasy Premier League and Sky Fantasy Football.

In FPL he has five top 10,000 finishes including overall ranks of 753 and 82, while on Sky he has breached the top 100 on four occasions.

But as Will explains in our latest Meet the Manager video interview, juggling two different formats can have its pitfalls as well as its advantages.

He chats to me about his strategies for success and how to achieve a top finish. We also look back on his 2017/18 campaign, in which hedging his picks across two formats cost him dearly in FPL.

In addition, he reveals how Sky’s patient approach, due to limited transfers, as well as its focus on fixtures with multiple captaincy selections allowed, has helped Will to excel across most of his FPL career.

Will’s views on the current season also prove illuminating, including why managers need to take advantage of an unusually high number of budget gems this term.

He also reveals why he is shunning Harry Kane and is instead pinning his hopes for success on another, far cheaper, striker.

With a current FPL rank of 26,711, he looks to be already on his way to another strong season.

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

The first Meet the Manager video, featuring Triggerlips can be viewed here, while the second, featuring Philman, can be seen here.

            In situations like this which end up being essentially 50/50s, I prefer to go with the player that I prefer personally. This may include character, style of play, team he's in - in general, do I like him. It's not always right on the coinflip but at least you can stand the player you chose. If I had to choose I'd go for Arnie as I remember the Mitro of NEW days and I fear he'll end up back headbutting people.

      I have both but personally prefer Arnie slightly more (from a biased West Ham fan). Although I do think Arnie is more clinical. Only needs 1 or 2 chances to score

      Knock > Gudmudsson

      Smalling because Newcastle have conceded the most set pieces and 2nd most headed shots.

          Ozil in form and likely to claim his CAM spot back, in a game where he’ll see plenty of the ball.

          Vardy against Everton doesn’t suit him in my mind, much better against a high line.

              Talked up far too much on here.

              Leciester have LESS than one expected goal / game at home.

              Everton have right around 1 xGoal against away from home.

              Regression will happen, but this is of course just how I see things.

              One week shouts can always go either way.

                  A bit better, and Brighton are a bit worse, but I suppose I’m just nitpicking because I’m
                  Likely to go with them haha, that’s an easy thing to do.

          Well because if you do it this week you miss Liverpool and Spurs away. And many are trying to get Kane. There's reasonable logic to it.

    How is this for a GW9 wilcard?

    Pretty happy except only "1.5" bighitters in defense.
    If going Trippier/Mendy/Robertson, it means a 4.0 keeper, and a 4.3 midfielder, not optimal I think?
    Mid+attack I'm happy about.

    Fab / Pat | Great rotation
    Alonso - Trent | Doherty / Yedlin / Wan Bissaka | Great rotation too
    Salah - Hazard - Richard - Maddison | Hojberg
    Aguero - Arnatovic - Mitrovic

      No amount of overthinking will put you at ease. Either don't get him and suck it up if he tears it up, or take the hit and get him. There is no point in over-analyzing and second-guessing a match against a team like Cardiff.

    Hazard or Salah for the next two weeks?

    Haz has Southampton (a) then United (h)
    - on top form
    - max baps almost guaranteed even if he gets an assist imo
    - on pens
    - saints look poor at the back and united are simply rotten...will mourinho pull one out the bag against chelsea?
    - anyone know hazard's scoring record again saints and united?

    Salah has City (h) then Huddersfield (a)
    - pool and salah not fully flowing but salah's stats are still good.
    - however, they beat city 3 times last year...pep would have learned by now so is due a win against pool?
    - huddersfield fixture is about the same level as chelsea's fixture against saints away

    Just to add another layer of complexity,
    - If i keep salah, i will do mendy >> doherty to raise funds for kane...so it will be doherty + salah for two weeks
    - if i get hazard, i will do salah > hazard to raise funds for kane..so it will be mendy (with awb on bench) + hazard for two weeks
