Two of the top three managers in Fantasy Football Scout’s Hall of Fame have exclusively revealed their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) teams ahead of Friday’s Gameweek 1 deadline.

These are the cream of the crop; the FPL bosses who haven’t just racked up one outstanding overall rank but several of them.

The Hall of Famers have been good enough to share their drafts with us ahead of Gameweek 1 although we’ve ‘anonymised’ their teams as per their wishes – perhaps you don’t get to where they are in the Hall of Fame without keeping some things close to your chest!

TEAM REVEALS

WHO ARE THE TOP MANAGERS IN OUR HALL OF FAME?

  • Fábio Borges: The Hall of Fame number 1. Has finished in the top 5k in each of the last seven seasons and never outside of the top 20,000.
  • Finn Sollie: Eight top 10k finishes in the last 12 seasons, including three inside the top 500 in the last six years.
  • John Canning: Two successive top 200 finishes, following on from another in 2011/12.

    The following team leaves me with 0.5itb, which I think could be gold to be able to react more flexible on trends and transfers in the first few GWs. Or would you use the 0.5itb elsewhere, maybe Iversen to Sanchez? Any other thoughts?

          Yep and he's a proven asset. The score he got last season, with his minutes... if he'd put up those numbers all season because he'd been fit to start nearly every game I'm not sure even peak Haaland would be able to keep up.

        Oh, it is. First team I see with Kane, Jesus, Haaland, Salah and TAA. Good picks!

    Tripps or Perisic? Hearing Perisic is a slight doubt?

      He’s a risk every week but high ceiling. I’m going Tripps
