Over his eight campaigns, Adam Hopcroft has finely tuned a bespoke management style that pays close attention to underlying statistics, the Season Ticker and the good old-fashioned eye test.
With five top 10,000 finishes, including two within the top 1,000, it’s a strategy that has clearly paid off.
Adam looks on course for another strong finish this time out too, with a current placing in the top 30,000.
Here he discusses in detail the key statistics he pays particular attention to and why medium, not short-term, upcoming fixtures guide his Season Ticker.
Each year he also gathers more information about players, which helps decide whether strong underlying statistics herald a point blitz or disappointment.
Adam then applies his tailor-made statistics and fixture analysis to the current campaign to reveal the players he is looking to ditch and those he is keen to bring in.
The chat with Adam is available to view on Youtube here and in the embedded video below.
