The Premier League hosted another dramatic and controversial game between Liverpool and Manchester City on Sunday. Despite being heavy underdogs heading into the match, Jurgen Klopp ousted the odds to come out as narrow 1-0 winners – thanks to Mo Salah’s winner. Salah continued his impressive record against the Citizens, having scored 4 goals in ...
The dreaded GW12 is upon us. With Man City and Arsenal fixture blanks, this is anyway a challenging week to field a playing XI in FPL. To add to that, Tuesday’s deadline is quite possibly the shortest turnaround time one could possibly get. With just one full day between game weeks, managers need to be ...
Haaland blanks in FPL. There. That’s the headline. Liverpool’s somewhat surprising victory over Manchester City ended a very exciting Premier League GW. A much better weekend for defenders, and not so much for the attackers, here is Thick Accent’s FPL review for GW11. You can check out the final results here. Winners: Alisson A clean ...
The newly-promoted Nottingham Forest received a fat dose of karma when they faced a struggling Wolves side at the weekend. Things haven’t really been going that well for the Wolves at all. They had to recently sack their manager Bruno Lage after a poor start to the season that left them toiling in the Premier ...
Liverpool are having a really difficult season. With Sadio Mane gone and injuries plaguing Jurgen Klopp’s side, the Reds have fallen way behind in the Premier League title race this season and seem nowhere close to competing for the trophy. Having drawn 4 and lost 2 of their first 8 league games, they only have ...
Ivan Toney’s fairytale story in English football continues gaining momentum. From once toiling in the lower divisions of the English league pyramid, he’s now become one of the most prominent strikers in the Premier League. Having received his first England national team call-up last month, the 26-year-old is oozing confidence. He’s even a favourite to ...
In this post, we take a look at the weekend’s Premier League action and analyse some FPL prospects and transfers. But before we get into discussing GW11, make sure you read about how to deal with Man City and Arsenal blanks to stay ahead of the curve. Fixtures: Liverpool v Manchester City will end what ...
Averaging 3.75 goals per game, Sunday’s Premier League action was a feast for the attackers and a nightmare for the defenders. None of the 8 teams playing managed to keep a clean sheet, ensuring that everyone who decided to spend the day staying in had a fun watch. Following on from our Saturday analysis on ...
Saturday was largely a template day of this season’s Premier League, with expected winners winning, Haaland scoring and Leicester losing. While day 1 of Gameweek 10 did not provide us with any glaring surprises, it still had plenty to offer FPL-wise. Here is our analysis of the hits and misses from Saturday’s action. The Hits ...
Erling Haaland is breaking all sorts of records at his new club, Manchester City. His pace, skill, agility and strength have been on full display as the forward has feasted on defences this season, scoring 19 times in 12 outings thus far. In the PL alone, Haaland has reached 14 goals in just 8 games. ...
The much-hailed Premier League Derby Weekend certainly did not disappoint, with plenty of action and reaction for everyone and their brother. Just when our blood pressures were returning to normalcy, on came mid-week European football. Thus far, no PL side has lost this week, with wins for Man City (no surprise who scored the ...
After a goal-laden Saturday, we could have forgiven the Premier League with a slightly duller Sunday. It seems, one of the two games played did not get that memo. The much-awaited Manchester derby surely delivered, at least for the blue team, who won 6-3. The other match, played after the derby, did not even try ...
English Premier League is back as Saturday provided us with plenty of highlight reels and talking points, and for those who missed the action, you can check out the scores here. With Act 1 of Gameweek 9 done, it is time for our FPL analysis. Who Impressed? Leandro Trossard Only one place to start here ...
The international break is almost over and Premier League football is back, and of course, so is FPL. The return of club football brings with it two tasty derbies to feast upon – the Manchester Derby and the North London Derby. And then there are a host of other matches that are bound to bring ...
One of the reasons Premier League fans do not like international breaks is the lack of club football on weekends. International football rarely delivers the same joy, excitement or drama. Another major reason why international commitments are despised is player injuries. International breaks are notorious for injuries and the subsequent unavailability affects one’s club commitments. ...
Many FPL managers have taken the international break as an opportunity to play their wildcard chip. This allows them to make unlimited transfers till the next gameweek deadline, which is on 1st October. We have previously covered defenders, midfielders and strikers and it is now time for goalkeepers to go under the scanner. FPL players ...
The first international break is upon us, giving everyone a break from Premier League action until 1st October when PL returns with the blockbuster North London Derby between Arsenal and Tottenham. The 10 days between now and the next PL match gives FPL managers enough time to tinker with their team and play the wildcard ...
