Spot the Differential

A Robing Van Persie goal is about a predictable as sprouts for dinner at this time, so there’s something slightly more magical about picking a player that no one else has. With the January wildcard available from gameweek 21, there’s never been a better time to take a punt on a ‘Differential’...

We’ve taken a bit of a different tack this week, taking an opportunity to revisit some old fantasy favourites from years gone by. While newcomers like Juan Mata, Daniel Sturridge and Demba Ba get all the attention, we've been quietly debating choices for an “Old boys” special…

As we continue our countdown to gameweek fifteen, it’s time to take another look at the players that ...

Differentials are by nature a risky investment, but once the December fixtures start coming thick and fast, not even the likes of Robin Van Persie are guaranteed a start. With a solid bench being a crucial factor to succeeding over the Christmas period, the Scout Selection Committee have been debating all week...

After we bankrupted the Differential budget to bring last gameweek’s selection of Mario Balotelli, Rafael Van Der Vaart and Didier Drogba, it feels good to get back to our roots for this week’s picks. We’ve been back trawling through old Championship footage to scout three lesser known differentials...

With another International break coming up after this weekend’s fixtures, many unsettled Fantasy managers playing the FPL game ...
