God willing, this will be the last season that the Premier League has without a winter break. The heavy schedule for Premier League teams that are also playing in Europe has clearly taken its toll. Liverpool's depleted back line is topped only by Arsenal's defensive woes as they look to find literally anyone to play in defense (I wonder if Nigel Winterburn or Tony Adams can still clear a cross?). But as always in fantasy football, injuries means opportunities and these Premier League waiver wire options are looking to make…

December Premier League. If there is such thing as too much football, it is in December. The weekly games slip out of their weekend rhythm and spill into a senseless amount of midweek action. Tuesday games, Thursday games, Boxing day games, games that occur in alternate timelines where Arsenal come back to beat Spurs. It's during December madness when manager vigilance wins fantasy matchups. Players with heavy schedules will have their value affected and that will be taken into account on the Fantasy Premier League waiver…

Nothing is certain, except death, taxes and Manchester City. With big wins from Fulham and Huddersfield Town, the Premier League table slipped into a state of uncertainty and ambiguity. While the gap between the top teams and everyone else continues to grow, the bottom half of the table is harder than ever this season to predict. It means that planning around favorable fixtures and past results is a difficult game to play in fantasy Premier League. If this uncertainty is to continue, and game flows continue to be impossible…

Have you ever considered the upside of quitting? I don't mean on your job or even your fantasy league, but sometimes it is time to give up on players. Twelve weeks into the Premier League campaign and we are starting to get an idea of player usage for most teams. I think 12 games is enough time to elapse to give up on that player you were once so excited to draft. Jose holds a grudge against Valencia, Kompany's old and Tosun is bad, it's safe to drop that dead weight. But hope is not lost. There is some real talent on the…

Oh, there was football this week? I was under the impression we put the season on hold while we wait for Mourinho and Pogba's diss tracks. While the real housewives of the Manchester United training ground unfolded midweek, Saturday gave us September's last round of Premier League games. This week the soccer waiver wire is dominated by speculative new starters on good teams. However, before looking at these players, check your league's free agency for mistakes your league mates have made. Is your league sleeping on Michael…

With Week 6 in the books, fantasy owners should now be getting a good understanding of their team makeup. Teams can have a composition of safe players that give constant returns. Or in fact, a team might have a roster of boom or bust players, that represent a high risk and high rewards. Or, a mixture of both. Neither way is right, and both makeups can win you a fantasy league. It is worth taking an inventory on your team and seeing what your team makeup looks like and, in turn, what your team needs are, before making your…
