Gameweek 26 Weekly Rankings
So here we go. Read below for my Gameweek 26 Weekly Rankings, broken down by each positional classification.
This Premier League season has been the craziest in recent history. Unexpected results, penalties, no clean sheets means it is harder than ever to try to project lineups and potential scorers. These rankings take into account a team’s lineup choices, their opponents as well as the players’ floor, and ability to come up with a massive score in any given gameweek. You should always try to balance your squad with high floor and high ceiling players to maximize your potential score while keeping a steady flow of points.
N.B: All fixture times noted in the below tables are in CET (Central European Time).
