Book Description
Welcome to the obsessive world of Fantasy Football, where managers will do anything to succeed. Every Saturday afternoon, 5.8 million people around the world settle down to see how their team will get on. But this isn't the team they support. It's THEIR team. They have spent hour after hour assessing injuries, swapping subs and tweaking formations. Because when the day is done and the scores are in, they want to be able to look in the mirror and say, 'THAT TRIPLE CAPTAIN CALL WAS AN ACT OF GENIUS!' David Wardale - writer for the UK's number one Fantasy Football site, Fantasy Football Scout - meets previous winners to discover how they beat millions to the crown. He reveals the leagues where failure involves outright humiliation and discovers just how low some managers will go to claim a psychological advantage. Along the way, he finds Saudi sheikhs, stats professors, most of Norway and a member of one of the biggest pop bands of all time, all of them united by their unflinching desire for Fantasy Football greatness.

Book Description
Praise For Taking A Hit: The Key To Success "Within the wonderful game of FPL, there are hundreds of micro decisions that must be made on a weekly basis. The difference between a top 100k finish and a top 1k finish can be one, singular transfer at the start of the season, that catalyses a series of changes resulting in FPL glory or FPL failure. As a result, if we can improve our decision-making by just 1%, it can have a remarkable impact on our season. "One can imagine, therefore, that this comprehensive, insightful exploration of one of the most important elements of the game - transfers and hits - could have the ability to catapult you up the rankings and make you the king or queen of your mini-league. To write a book, in and of itself, is an incredible achievement. However, due to the amount of work it takes, authors can be tempted to cut corners. This book? Well this book does no such thing! "From philosophical discussions of transfer strategies and management types, to real world research and surveys, to asking some of the best managers in the world for their insights, this book is without a doubt the most comprehensive discussion of transfers that you will ever read, and I truly think it will transform the way you play FPL." Ross Dowsett Author of The Mind Game YouTube (FPL Raptor) "Taking hits is one of the most topical areas of FPL and after a sneak peak, I look forward to reading more of Paul's book. We spend hours deliberating on our weekly transfers and this book should make our decision-making process just that little bit easier." Gianni Buttice Official Fantasy Premier League Show Panelist Author of Premier Fantasy League: Unlocking The Secrets To A Top 1% Finish "As someone who takes FPL (probably a little too) seriously and who likes to (over?) analyse their performance in search of scope for improvement, I tend to value objective information - especially when this is gathered from some of the very best players in the game. I'll admit that taking hits is an area of my game I have spent less time looking at than others. As I started to look at the way rank changes work in FPL, I quickly concluded that taking too many hits could potentially have a negative impact on rank so I became quite conservative in that respect, only taking a hit when absolutely necessary. However, I wonder if I could be missing an opportunity to make significant gains by using hits more proactively? Paul's book offers us the opportunity to learn and understand the strategies used by top FPL managers in relation to taking hits and, if you're anything like me, I'm sure that you will find the prospect of that intriguing and impossible to resist..." Alex Pickard (FPL Dork @DorkFpl) 2020/21: 350th "While some strategies of Fantasy Premier League are widely accepted in the FPL community, the concept of hits is divisive and can perhaps be a barrier for some fantasy veterans (myself included) to reach the upper echelons of the overall rankings in a single season. This book is a fascinating read for fantasy managers old and new, as Paul delves into the data of 2020/21 to find out when hits are beneficial and how getting it right can propel you up the leaderboard. There's plenty of great takeaways I'll be trying to implement into my own fantasy approach going forward to give myself an edge. Don't miss out!"

The Expected Goals Philosophy

Pages : 222

Book Description
The Expected Goals method is football's best-kept secret. The metric gives unparalleled insight into which teams and players are performing at the highest level. Professional gamblers have used Expected Goals to make millions through football betting. Club scouts have used Expected Goals to identify hidden gems in the transfer market. And the media have recently started using Expected Goals to offer more profound insight in their broadcasts. Despite this, most ordinary fans still don't understand what the Expected Goals method is - or appreciate the significant impact that it is set to have on the sport in coming years. Expected Goals (otherwise known as xG) was originally conjured up by a small corner of the online football analytics community. It didn't take long for professional gamblers to begin using xG to predict match outcomes. These bettors utilised the Expected Goals method to turn over hundreds of millions of pounds from the bookmakers. Before long, football clubs had caught on to the ground-breaking insight given by xG. Brentford FC were leaders in this field, managing to assemble a Play-Off-reaching squad on a shoe-string budget. In the last five years, the small West London side have turned over more than £100m in transfer revenue from their use of the Expected Goals method in player recruitment. More recently, the Expected Goals method has been adopted by the media as a form of insight. Fans are finally catching on to the pioneering means of football analysis. Soon enough, anyone who doesn't understand the Expected Goals philosophy will be left behind. "This book will make you watch football differently" - Tobias Pedersen "Possibly the most ground-breaking football book ever written" - Football Impact "A brilliant account of the history and future of Expected Goals" - StatShot
