Official Fantasy Premier League : Insight

With just over 3 weeks to go for the start of the season, its that time where we try to fix our fantasy teams with strategies, rough lineups, scouting for season long picks, joining leagues etc. Most of us rather all of us here realize the excitement that goes along with the Yahoo format of the game.The deadline day transfers, barn door, reading player picks, waiting for scores, trying to beat your competitors etc are things which pretty much complete a good week.

However those of you who play the Official format will notice the difference in approach to the game and how strategies are so different when you are allowed just 1 free transfer with no major changes in valuations.

With enough time to make changes to your teams, we though it would be appropriate to put up the
best value picks out there also keeping in mind the double game week to begin with.

Gylfi Sigurdsson signs for Tottenham

Andre-Villas Boas today made Gylfi Sigurdsson his first signing as Tottenham head coach. After the heroic display for Swansea last season in a short spell ( on loan ) he did prove that he is meant for the Premier League.Tottenham Hotspurs have been looking to strengthen their midfield as they seem to lose out on 1 or 2 of their key players.

Gylfi Sigurdsson has been on target right from the start of his loan move to Swansea last season and scored 7 goals in 19 appearances for the Welsh Side.
