Fantasy Allsvenskan – Goalkeepers

12 Comments
Share

Fantasy Allsvenskan is back and in the first proper article about player positions, we took a look at the current goalkeeping situation. Goalkeepers have taken a big price-hike this season and we’ve suddenly found 8 out of the 16 options in the 6.0m+ region. With little cash to spare ahead of GW1, will you be looking at the cheaper options or shelling out the big bucks to attain more ‘secure’ points?

For a full rundown of all our picks at each price point in this tricky position, check out the latest Fantasy Football Scout article we put up on the Fantasy Allsvenskan site here.

If you haven’t yet joined, our mini-league code for the Fantasy Football Scout league this season is u1ouqr.

Stay tuned as next we’ll be taking a look at all of this season’s options in defence. For any potential newcomers, if you want to chat about fantasy football in general or Fantasy Allsvenskan in particular, you can find me on Twitter under @FF_Meltens.

    Great article Meltens, I'm on Oscar Jansson and Gal at the moment but we'll see how things pan out. My squad is quite balanced at the moment with three big-hitters for captaincy but I think I'll have to reduce that to two and re-assess my defenders, they are a touch expensive this season.

      Cheers mate! 🙂
      Oscar Jansson is great, can't stretch that far myself atm but a lot of tinkering to be done. Will monitor the Elfsborg GK situation as we could get a 5.0m starter there with a DGW7.

      Defenders are expensive but they are so good that I can't help myself haha, currently rocking both Witry and J Larsson and can't see that changing anytime soon.

    Thanks for a great overview of the goalkeeper situation this season Meltens. I'm currently trying to weigh up between going for an expensive, but hopefully set and forget option like Jansson or Dahlberg, or whether to opt for a cheap duo from the promoted teams (Säfqvist/Påhlsson) or (Diawara/Gal).

      I have the Halmstad duo atm and quite happy with that, but a 5.0m starting Elfsborg GK might sway me. I think Dahlberg at 6.5m is a tad bit too expensive potentially but we'll see! 🙂

    Cheers for the great article, mate. Currently finding it hard to look beyond the value in a Halmstad double up, but seems there could be some value investing further for those who can spare the funds!

      Thanks! 🙂 Yeah it's a great double up, I expect it to be quite popular.

    Thanks for this. I'm keen to get involved despite knowing nothing about Swedish football. Is my team in reasonable shape? Any recommendations?

    Jansson
    Johansson Larsson Kahl
    Bengtsson Yusuf Haksabanovic Alm
    Hummet Jeremejeff Antonsson

    Sveijer Almeback Hellborg Stenmark

    Cheers!

      Hi Nimby, welcome to Allsvenskan. Meltens will undoubtedly be producing further articles before the season kicks-off and his recommendations are the ones to pay attention to. Your initial squad looks fine so far but I would suggest that up front Hummet and Antonsson are ones to jettison. Another big-hitter and if possible a playing 4.5m forward like Silverholt of Mjallby could work better. But as I said, wait for Meltens articles about forwards and you won't go wrong.

          On saying that, we do have to beat Petter (Meltens)!

          I nudged him by just a few points last season and I reckon I'm first on his hit list!

          Petter is the expert, the rest of us just guess.

          Good luck mate.

          J

            Haha thanks as always Johnny, far too kind! I've looked through some of the bigger mistakes I made last season and I'm pretty sure I'll give you a run for your money this time around 😉

      Hello Nimby, welcome to the board and to Fantasy Allsvenskan! 🙂

      I won't pick the team apart too much as I think the foundation is strong but the upcoming articles should provide some clarity on the options all around. There are definitely mids around Yusuf's price that have a lot brighter prospects, in my opinion. As for Hummet, Örebro have lost their biggest creative spark in Nahir Besara but their strikers still look interesting with the pricepoints, if nothing else. Antonsson has (had?) qualities to be a great striker but it's been quite a few years since he's shown it, being the "big fish in a small pond" now after the move to Halmstad, it really could go either way.

      Also - don't be afraid to shell out on defenders or even use 4/5 solid ones in a rotation. Defenders have gotten a big price hike but quite a few of them will probably be worth it, as defenders get a lot more points in this game than in FPL through bonus by just being good at their job, so to speak.
