Lets Have Some Fun: Post Your EPL Fantasy Team

There are 16 teams in the Fake Teams Fantasy EPL league and I am currently sitting in 4th place. Poor old Brian Stultz is in 10th. Matt Wilson (show your face, bro!) is leading everyone in 1st place with 476 total points. Based on his team time, I am going to go out on a limb and say he is a Liverpool fan. Let's take a look at his team and see how he came to be the most dominant team in the league after 10 games.

GK: Begovic

DEF: Jose Fonte, Kyle Walker, Winston Reid

MID: Yaya Toure, Mesut Ozil, Aaron Ramsey, Ross Barkley

FWD: Luis Suarez (C), Daniel Sturridge, Romelu Lukaku

Bench: Kelvin Davis (GK), James Collins, Scott Parker (Brian would be proud!), Javier Garrido

Matt has a fantastic midfield and strikeforce, his goalkeeper is solid and often underrated by some, while his bench leaves little to be desired. However, his three strikers have been on form and we all know about Ozil and Ramsey (especially if you read any of my articles, if you don't then shame on you). Winston Reid is injured and expected back Nov 23rd but he got 6 points last week before going down. Good job so far, Matt.

Mark G is sitting in 2nd place after an absolutely remarkable week where his team scored 90 points. Here's how he did it:

GK: Jääskeläinen (6pts)

DEF: Ben Turner (8pts), Bacary Sagna (8pts), Per Mertsesacker (6pts)

MID: Seb Larsson (2pts), Aaron Ramsey (10pts), Tom Cleverley (1pt), Yaya Toure (9pts)

FWD: Jozy Altidore (1pt), Robin Van Persie (24 pts captain), Sergio Aguero (18pts)

Bench: Artur Boruc, Coloccini, Lescott, Carrick

Fantastic week for Mark. Only thing I would look to alter here is to take off Cleverley and Altidore and look for an upgrade at midfield and maybe Loic Remy or Lukaku instead of Altidore if money permits.

Travis Smyth sits in 3rd place, down from his previous spot at 2nd place thanks to Mark's team blowing up. Here's his team:

GK: Mignolet

DEF: Dejan Lovren, Leighton Baines, John Terry, Pablo Zabaleta

MID: Mesut Ozil, Yaya Toure, Aaron Ramsey, Ross Barkley

FWD: Giroud, Suarez (C)

Bench: Joe Lewis (GK), Danny Gabbison (CRYSTAL PALACE SIGHTING!), El Ahmadi, Nicky Maynard

Solid team, but I am a big fan of 3-4-3 when it comes to fantasy. His defenders are very good, though and if he likes to go with 4 defenders then what I do is take Barkley off and try to get a 3rd striker in the lineup and opt for a 4-3-3.

In 4th place, down from the week before, is yours truly. I am trailing Travis for 3rd by three points, and trailing 2nd place by 12 points, while the 1st place team is above and beyond everyone else with 476 points. Anything can still happen, though.

GK: Cech

DEF: Seamus Coleman, Ryan Shawcross, Michael Dawson

MID: Mesut Ozil (C), Aaron Ramsey, Victor Moses, Ross Barkley

FWD: Daniel Sturridge, Romelu Lukaku, Wayne Rooney

Bench: Boruc, Ben Arfa, Luke Shaw, James Collins.

After last week I made some changes to my team. I wasn't happy to see Moses dropped from the starting line up so I didn't want to take any more chances with him and Ben Arfa was left off for the Chelsea game. He's always been inconsistent and injury prone anyway. So now it looks like this:

GK: Cech

DEF: Seamus Coleman, Ryan Shawcross, Michael Dawson

MID: Andros Townsend, Mesut Ozil (C), Aaron Ramsey, Samir Nasri

FWD: Daniel Sturridge, Romelu Lukaku, Wayne Rooney

Bench: Boruc, Luke Shaw, Ross Barkley, James Collins

It's a bit of a gamble going for Andros Townsend but he has to translate all the chances he has created soon doesn't he? Seriously, please do so. Even though I dislike Tottenham, for the sake of my fantasy team score some goals for me this week. Samir Nasri has been a weapon off the bench for City and at times finds himself in the starting line up. He is a dangerous player and this could either pay off handsomely or force me to make another move next week.

Those are the top 4 teams in the Fake Teams Fantasy League after 10 games. Who do you think has the best team? Do you think I made a mistake with the recent changes I made? How's your fantasy team doing?
