FPL

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.

        Premier league site has photo of Salah getting the golden boot? Does Son not get it too? Minutes played or something?

        1. Nightcrawler

          Both got it

          it's shared mate as it should be, no need for a mins played or any s*** like that

          I don’t agree with Salah getting it as well but it is what it is I guess

            You’re upset with maths?

              Felt KDB/Son deserved it more (yes, know Son co-wins it)

                Scoring from penalties being as "worthy" as open play goals is slightly unfair imo.

                What's deserved got to do with goals scored, a player might deserve player of the year etc. Golden boot is goal scored and not about performance

        Great end to a rollercoaster season both in fpl and real life

        I know some people found my posts very annoying while some enjoyed it ( I know it got tedious towards the end) but it was all tongue in cheek I promise!! :p

        Hopefully a great summer for all of u and we meet again next season....with new catchphrases!

            Ah gw 9, what a horror story as a united fan lol.
            Capt Ronnie for his 1 pointer, salah vc hauls, and I get dumped down to 600k. Thankfully was early enough in season to recover, but it was a long slog back from there!

              Big swing that week. First of many really. I didn’t deal with Covid postponements well at all - made a lot of poor decisions. Where did you finish ??

                Kdb cap in 36 catapulted me from 36k to 15k, then bb 37 helped some more and ended up just inside top 6k.
                Id given up on my main ml at start of 36, with him 90 pts ahead, but I managed to secure the win today!

          First time into top 100 K this year with 83. My worst season in 12 years playing. Really tough going this year.

            Leeds, though....

            1. GreennRed
              • 12 Years
              1 year, 10 months ago

              I asked a Leeds supporter yesterday what they needed to survive and his answer was 'a miracle'. Fair play to them.

              1. DA Minnion (Former great)
                • 11 Years
                1 year, 10 months ago

                So did I. Never imagined we amtjm do it.

                  Can't wait to listen to Johnny Giles on The Stand tomorrow. I doubt he'll give Marsch even the tiniest bit of credit. From afar and neutral I think they relaxed a bit when Bielsa went, though that man did miraculous things with Leeds too. I saw him hugging and enjoying moments with players, more relaxed than the Bielsa relationship, needing a translator, aggressive work ethic, unless they couldn't speak American 😉

                  1. DA Minnion (Former great)
                    • 11 Years
                    1 year, 10 months ago

                    Bielsa was amazing but something needed to change defensively at the time we moved. Thankfully it worked out. Also it would have been sad for Bielsas legacy too if he had been somewhat to blame for going back down. Mot

                  Or back punching next season more like.

              The usual pre season big back 5, which usually lasts 3 weeks, may be the template this next season dependent on price increases for Trent Robbo, James.

            Highest points of season
            Capping kdb for his 30 pointer dbl in 36
            Tc mo in 26
            Capping cancelo vs Newcastle for his 18 haul.
            Lows there were lots lol, nearly always missing the salah hauls when trying different captain early on.
            Benching cancelo for his 14 points vs united( what was I thinking?!?)

                Aye, it was a great week, prob better than tc mo tbf, as loads had him on it, and rest were fh or wc, so the gains didn't seem so good in that gw.

                Cancelo and they kdb 2nd game in 36 were beautiful moments!

            Poor Burnley look finished

            Burnley relegated. A club who the Premier League allowed to be bought with their own money, loaded with debt and left £90million worse off plus interest after their takeover. No squad investment and now a £65m loan to be repaid. A scandalous situation which should shame the

              They are screwed. The whole model was based on them staying in pl.

              And its why they threw hail Mary and sacked dyche, was there last roll of dice. In a normal situation, dyche is exact man you'd want to try and get you back from relegation, but they couldn't take the risk of going down.
              Disgrace it was allowed to happen, but pl never learn with these things, chelsea, utd, city, Newcastle, Burnley.

              None should have been allowed for different reasons.

            Just noticing the massive difference in ranks for the same amount of points in last season. Surely down to the rise on Youtubers etc. Makes top 10k seem massive. Top 50k/100k seems really big milestones now

              Tbh it’s also higher scoring due to the doubles and Salah (c) working consistently all through the first half of the season

                1 year, 10 months ago

                I agree. The amount of doubles increased scores a lot. Youtubers make zero difference when we look at the score of top 1 or top 100.

              It really is getting more difficult by the year to achieve a top 100k rank.

                Done it 3 times in a row after never been able to get there/here before. Covid and variance have affected last two easons a lot.

              Its tough, a guy was leading my ml for a long time, was at about 4k in gw 34/35, and he was just copying the moves of an fpl expert who'd post his teams and moves, and capt picks before deadline.

              Its a bit maddening, but thankfully I was able to pip him at the post!

              Also only 6 points or so between 5k and 6k.

              19 points from 6k to 10k.

              Margins are so so fine now.

                Yes, here I agree. One goal alone can be worth 6+3+3+2 = 14 pts.

            When City lost to Madrid so many people here and on social media criticized him for his substitutions, yet no one applauds the subs he made today that changed the game entirely.. bringing on Gundogan over a 100m player in a needs must situation takes some courage..guess it is easy to criticize than appreciate - A neutral football fan

            18K and most important ML won. Could’ve and should’ve been a lot more, but I’d have taken this at the start of the season. Thanks to all here for advice and help! Enjoy the break and look forward to going again next year!
