4. Alfred
As managers look to save funds in the peripherals of their squads to afford as many premium options as possible, Alfred has identified a potential budget rotation option. Can these two cheapies keep their place for a wildcard squad?
Gunn (4.3m) and Guaita (4.2m). Possible £8.5m keeper rotation?

5. Viper
After two disappointing blanks, many Hazard managers are frustrated. FPL Viper delves into the statistics of his returns in different formations. With Morata linked to a move away from Stamford Bridge, should we hold firm for the Gameweek 22 preview?

6. Prince
As the dust settles on the festive period, there’s some new trends emerging on FPL. The Prince shares 8 top tips for the New Year, with Liverpool assets on top of the agenda. Is a double up on the defence the way to go alongside Mo Salah?
It's been a tough month in FPL but my key tips to push on:
1. Double up on Liverpool defence
2. Captain Salah
3. Have Kane
4. Stick with Everton assets
5. Move Son out when he goes away
6. Consider Arnoutovic
7. Have Pogba
8. Be Patient #FPL— FPL Prince (@TheFPLPrince) January 2, 2019
7. Campbell
With Son departing for the Asia Cup and many managers considering downgrading Kane to afford Salah, could Eriksen be the main man to own from Spurs. Tom Campbell shares the form and statistics for the Gameweek 22 preview.
Christian Eriksen (£9.3m) since GW13:
➡️ Avg. mins / GW: 73
➡️ Avg. points / GW: 6.8
➡️ 4 goals, 5 assists, 7 bonus pointsAvg. points / season: 179
Spurs’ next 7 fixtures:
MUN, ful, WAT, NEW, LEI, bur

FPL Champion has put together an excellent thread of information surrounding the fixtures until the end of the season. When should you hop on and off the key assets to allow maximum FPL points returns?

Doing this for my own purposes but may help others! I will add some quick comments analysing good runs of fixtures approaching for certain teams.

9. Hopcroft
It’s very difficult to accommodate Kane and Aubameyang alongside Mo Salah and other premium midfielders. Adam Hopcroft looks at the key statistics to decide which expensive forward is the one to own right now.
Kane v Auba – last 8 matches
Auba has played more mins – he only didnt complete 90 v Liverpool
ppm – Kane 7.9 v Auba 7.1
Goals – Kane 7 v Auba 6
xG Kane 3.5 v Auba 7.5
Big chances (scored) – Kane 6(5) v Auba 14(2)
Kane alot more clinical, Auba getting alot more chances

11. Neil
Neil Murray suggests a differential defender for the Gameweek 22 preview. Could Leicester’s Pereira be the must own player for the season run in, given his fixtures and out of position prospects. There’s certainly a compelling case.
1) I firmly believe Ricardo Pereira (5.3M) is the best defender to own from now until the end of the season in #FPL, here's why… {THREAD}
