Jamie Pigott crowned 2021/22 FPL champion

Jamie Pigott has been crowned the 2021/22 Fantasy Premier League (FPL) champion after a dramatic Gameweek 38.

FPL has yet to update after this afternoon’s matches but using LiveFPL’s live league standings tool, we know that Jamie has finished comfortably clear of second-place Suvansh Singh.

Attacking returns from difference-makers Joel Matip, Reece James and Sadio Mane help offset Suvansh’s success stories of Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka.

Suvansh also took a -4 to sell Ollie Watkins and Philippe Coutinho, who unexpectedly delivered attacking returns at the Etihad, but they were part of the move to fund Kane.

The runner-up can at least content himself with the knowledge that he has won the Fantasy Football Scout Members league (amongst many others), finishing ahead of world number five Damien Ruigrok:

Brett Taylor, who ended up with a rank of 3rd, won our Fantasy Football Scout league by a handsome margin, finishing two points short of Suvansh overall:

Congratulations to all the winners and the FPL managers who pushed them close; stay tuned for RedLightning’s next excellent round-up for a more detailed summary of these and other community leagues and cups.

    Anyone's final day hits work out?

    Mine was a disaster

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Sold Coutinho for Diaz. Ended up tying ML and losing on transfers made.

    2. Hits Central
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Mine did! Turned around and 84 point deficit over the last 3 weeks. Big shout out to everyone for their help on here and I hope there was a lot of success stories!

    3. Sun God Nika
      • 3 Years

      Son and Maddison in paid off

    4. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      No hits taken but GW was a total disaster.

    5. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Saka to Bowen while leaving Martinelli on the bench is a resounding no for me. At least my FT for Doherty to Sess was worthwhile

    6. putana
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      cash, digne, cout -> matip, sess, barnes

      all 6 players got returns so wasnt worth

    7. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years

      Benching disaster .. but overall happy

    8. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Cash + Cout >> Sess + Mount
      -11p and top 5k lost with 1 pt

    9. Baron Penguin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Salah, Matip and Richarlison to Son (C), Sessegnon and Vardy for -8 worked out really well. So I only dropped from 30k to 40k, so kind of a win???

    10. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Last week's team probably scored more.

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        * on FH. Lost Kulusevski and Coutinho etc.

    11. Hits from the Bong
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Salah and Gordon to Bowen and Maddison wasn't too bad but not good enough to get a green arrow. Plus West Ham lost to make it a pretty disappointing day all round

    12. asr
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      For once got lucky: Alonso, Salah, Gelhardt > James, Maddison, Salah. 21(-8)=13

      1. asr
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        James, Maddison, Vardy*

    13. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      I would've done Saka to Kulusevski but decided against it...

    14. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      A smooth green arrow for me after a rough GW36 clawing the lost ground back 37&38

    15. Goro Majima
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Yeah -12 in a desperate attempt to rescue ML victory, but included Wilson for Rich which went well. Narrowly failed in the ML but finished on a green arrow at least.

    Are you able to see your mini league final positions on live fpl? All blank still for me.

    Just saw that there are Nations League games on next month, right after the finish of the domestic season with at least 4 ganes for each team. Madness

      Doesn't make sense

      Players need a break after back to back seasons more or less

  6. Utopsis

    Looks like 2640 all out for me - OR 6.8k. Absolutely chuffed with that (had I gone with my gut and went Wilson instead of Toney however, would've been top 5k!).

    My OR has massively improved in the last 3 seasons since I started using this site in earnest. Thank you all, see you next season!

    See you all in about 4 months guys, it’s been a wild season!

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      2 1/2 i think.

      Or maybe 3.

      Starts again in August.

  9. Eh, just one more thing ...
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    89 points (annoyingly 27 on the bench) and mini leagues won but overall a decent final day of what has been a poor season. More importantly, sat in the sun watching the final day unfold was very exciting.

    Hope everyone had a good last day, has a nice break and looking forward to another season.

        I would be close to top 10 in that league (2557). Please come to my seminar 😎

  20. Edalock
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Experimented going the whole season without hits. Goal was top 10k, finished 10,365 with no hits. Dropped from 8k in GW37. Painful way to end the season but lots of lessons learnt. We go again next season.

    3rd 15k finish (6,471 - 10/11, 11,827 - 11/12) in 8 full season attempts.

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Probably works better next season
      This one was a hard one to avoid hits with all the cancellations and doubles

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      My hit cost was 110 pts. I had horrible start to this season. Would have been lucky to make it to top 100k without hits. 2nd top 11k finish in 3 seasons.

    3. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Finished 10.359 with 124 hit points.
      Doesn’t matter how many hit points you take as long as they pay off πŸ˜‰

  21. JELLYFISH
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Sweaty bum time at the end there. Tsimikas no show means that I have Veltman coming off my bench (for Alonso)…winning me my ML by 3 points

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      That’s some jam there

      1. JELLYFISH
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Veltman was a just a fluke pick with my 4.2 remaining FH budget. All came down to that one selection.

  22. Baps hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Takes skill to lose top 10k with 1 pt and to lose top 5 k with 1 pt two years later πŸ˜‰

    1. Hits from the Bong
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      Unlucky. Probably the greatest humble brag I've seen though

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Thx πŸ˜‰ Just weird feeling to be one exact point behind again. Of course I am relieved to get my first 10k finish. Losing it with 1 pt at the time was so hard that I even created ml for those who haven't got in top 10k ever before. Someone else has to do now job now and be superstitious enough to believe that founder wins it.

    2. NorCal Villan
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      At least you are consistent. So you’ve got that going for you, which is nice 😎

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Last season was an anomaly perhaps, but I made it to top 100k. If this happens every other season, next season tells nothing.

  23. jackruet
    • 2 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    40 k overall. Decent i guess?

    1. Grande Tubarão
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Very

  24. jason_ni
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 10 months ago

    Just sneaking inside top 6k if live rank is correct, highest position this season, so end on a high!

    Was as low as 360k in gw 16, and 36k in gw 35.

    Ml swung my way last 2 gws as well, so pretty chuffed.

    4 top 10k now in past 7 seasons, happy with that record!

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Amazing consistency well done

    2. JELLYFISH
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      What a fpl pick Matip has been this season. Bought him in around gw30 for 4.9 and he has to be up there with my best transfers this season.

    3. HTL
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 10 months ago

      That late Robbo goal cost me second place (first cash place as not everyone paid in). On the plus side, Richarlison to Wilson paid off handsomely, wasn’t convinced Toney was the answer.

      Second top 5k finish in three seasons so delighted with that.

      Just hope next season is less disjointed

      1. jason_ni
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 10 months ago

        Well done on the wilson pick!

        Nice finish as well, no pressure keeping it going!

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      After a very nervy final day a late Robertson goal was enough to sneak me into the top 1k with an OR of 975, what a season this has been.
