Lukaku Reminds Chelsea He Is Still There
May 20th, 2013 | Managers Notes
They say that the last day of the season always throws up a surprise or two and while most the places that mattered had already been decided there was still one surprise to be found on the final day of fixtures. In Sir Alex Ferguson’s last game in charge of United against West Brom we [...]
Bale Couldn’t Save Tottenham
May 20th, 2013 | Managers Notes
Gareth Bale was once again on the score sheet as he scored another stunning late winner for Tottenham, but despite his side’s 1-0 win over Sunderland it was not enough to win the battle to qualify for the Champions League on Sunday. Going into the game Tottenham knew that matters were out of their hands [...]
West Ham Finish Strong As Nolan And Carroll Shine
May 20th, 2013 | Managers Notes
Heading into Sunday’s fixture with Reading we expected to see Andy Carroll continue his good run of form, but one that we didn’t expect was the performance by Kevin Nolan as the Hammers ran out 4-2 winners.

Sturridge Makes A Case For Captaincy
May 13th, 2013 | Managers Notes
In last week’s tip we spoke about the potential of Daniel Sturridge despite the fact that he drew a blank in the Merseyside derby the week before and he didn’t let us down as he returned to goal scoring form at Craven Cottage Brendan Rodgers started with a 3-5-2 formation, handing Philippe Coutinho the role [...]
Adebayor & Dempsey Plays Their Way Into Contention
May 13th, 2013 | Managers Notes
It’s fair to say that Gareth Bale has been the fantasy focal point of the Tottenham squad this season but having drawn back-to-back blanks for the first time since round 23 Spurs had to look elsewhere for goals. Clint Dempsey had a hand in both the visitors’ strikes, with a goal and assist helping the US international to [...]
Ben Arfa Proves He Can Still Produce The Goods
May 13th, 2013 | Managers Notes
In last week’s midfielders tips we spoke about how the return of Hatem Ben Arfa to the Newcastle side could prove beneficial for both the Magpie’s and fantasy managers alike and once again we were on the money.
