In the build up to the 2022/2023 season, I thought it would be useful to look at some of the best player picks. These are players that I’d expect to be up there as the highest scoring players come the end of the season. Budget won’t allow us to accommodate…

With the 2021/2022 season a distant memory, this is the perfect time to examine some of the stats around the best performing players to give us an insight around who to pick next time around. Below I’ve examined the top 10 highest point scoring strikers. 1. Salah (Liverpool) – 334…

The 2021/2022 season seems a long time ago now, but with the new season game opening soon, this makes it a great time to look back at which players performed the best during the previous campaign. Below I’ve listed the top 10 highest scoring midfielders. This list should help form…

With the game about to be released, it’s useful to take stock of the best performing players from last season. This blog outlines the top 10 highest scoring defenders for the 2021/2022 season. Hopefully this information will be useful for team selection for the next campaign. 1. Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool) -…

This article acts as a handy guide for anyone who is looking to learn the basics on how to play Dream Team fantasy football. It covers how to pick a team, how to manage your team and how you will score points across the season. Picking a team How many…

I thought it would be useful to put together a brief article that covers some of my top Dream Team transfers tips. As we all know, we now have 5 transfers to use throughout the month. This can make it difficult to judge when to use transfers and when to…

With the 2020/2021 behind us, it’s a great time to look at the highest scoring goalkeepers. This will put us in a better position for next season when it comes to player selection.   1. Alisson (Liverpool) – 185 points2. Ederson (Man City) – 144 points3. Mendy (Chelsea) – 142 points4….

It’s been a while since I last covered the basic strategy that I use to approach the game. As a result, I thought it was worth a quick reminder of the principles I’ve generally followed over the past seasons to secure a finish around the 1,000th mark on the leaderboard. This…

Dream Team gives us the option of creating 10 teams and as a result, picking 10 different team names can often be a challenge. This article examines some of the best Dream Team names I’ve come across over the years and puts forward some options around how to pick your…

As we begin to move into the new season, I thought it was worth a quick recap of games that will and won’t count from a Dream Team perspective. Obviously, all Premier League games count but I thought it would be worth looking at the cups and playoff games. Does…

How many transfers can we make? Sun Dream Team transfers were recently revamped to allow each manager 5 transfers per month. This includes August. What happened to the transfer window? The Dream Team transfer window is no longer required. With 3 transfers each month there is no need for any…

Player values are set at the start of the season but can vary week by week. In a nutshell this means that if a player performed well his value could increase. If he performed badly his value may decrease. This provides an opportunity to grow the size of your overall…

The starting Sun Dream Team budget for team selection is £50m. Players will need to be chosen to fit within this budget, which is always a challenging task. Player values will be subject to change by a minimum or maximum of 0.3m at the end of every game week. This…

The scoring system for The Sun Dream Team is extremely easy to follow. Players are rated individually and pick up points during games they are involved in. Player ratings and point scores can be checked in play or after games on the match centre of the Dream Team website. How…

The Sun Dream Team offers three variations of team formations. A 4-4-2, 3-4-3 or a 4-3-3. I tend to always favour the 3-4-3 with the chance to include 3 strikers. Strikers tend to pick up slightly more points over the course of a season. This is mainly because they are…

Hope you all had a strong finish to the season and won your mini leagues. Just wanted to give a big shoutout and congratulations to Justin who won the Dream Team Tips Mini league and the cash prize of £200. 2718 is remarkable total in such a difficult season for…

I’m making my final two transfers for the Champions League final tonight: Kane out, Salah inCancelo out, Van Dijk in I’m not sure I see Liverpool keeping a clean sheet but I think Van Dijk is a bigger goal threat than anyone else I could pick at this stage. I…

GW Points: 52Overall Points: 2,249Overall Rank: 38,499Transfers: Salah out, Kane inSterling out, Kulusevski in Game week 37 went as well as could be expected. A single game week with all games being played at the same time was always going to be a lottery. My gamble on the differential Kulusevski…

As I’ve got nothing to lose, I’m making a couple of transfers today. One makes perfect sense and the other is a rogue move (which I don’t think will pay off) but is worth a punt. Salah out, Kane inSterling out, Kulusevski in Salah and Sterling are on the bench…

GW Points: 30Overall Points: 2,197Overall Rank: 39,943Transfers: None used Game week 36 once again failed to live up to expectation. Only 30 points scored resulted in the team staying fairly stable on the leaderboard. The team appeared to be gathering some momentum for a more respectable finish a few weeks…

As Maddison isn’t the squad today, I’m making a transfer. It’s got to be a Man City player so I’m going for Sterling considering that he’s starting against Newcastle. I don’t hold out much hope for him, but he’s always got the potential to score a couple of goals if…

GW Points: 57Overall Points: 2,070Overall Rank: 39,806Transfers: None used Game week 34 was a fairly flat game week for the team – 57 points resulted in staying pretty much in the same position on the overall leaderboard. Mane and Diaz were the main highlight with both hitting a double figure…

The Dream Team star man is awarded for every point scoring Dream Team game. In a very similar way to a man of the match award, a star man is often the player who is deemed to have had the biggest impact on the game in question. The star man…

GW Points: 85Overall Points: 2,013Overall Rank: 39,475Transfers: De Gea out, Mendy inRudiger out, Alexander-Arnold inSterling out, Diaz inKane out, Jota in Game week 33 was another solid game week, it was risky to make four transfers and go so heavy on Liverpool players but I think it paid off. It’s…

I’m making four transfers before Man Utd kick off:De Gea out, Mendy inRudiger out, Alexander-Arnold inSterling out, Diaz inKane out, Jota in I’ve got very little to lose so I’m targeting the good fixtures for Liverpool in the Champions League.

GW Points: 94Overall Points: 1,928Overall Rank: 43,972Transfers: None used Game week 32 was another fairly positive game week despite the team’s poor overall position on the leaderboard. Mane in particular was a highlight with 27 points as I’d imagine his ownership is reasonably low. I’m surprised the team didn’t jump…

GW Points: 85Overall Points: 1,834Overall Rank: 48,629Transfers: None used Game week 31 was a much more positive game week, the team picked up 85 points and climbed over 10,000 places on the leaderboard. It probably is a case of too little too late at this stage in the season as…

GW Points: 62Overall Points: 1,749Overall Rank: 59,175Transfers: Bowen out, Mount in Game week 30 was another massively frustrating week, despite some players performing well, the team remained in roughly the same position on the overall leaderboard. More annoying was that I’d read Bowen probably wasn’t fit to start for West…

As I’m not sure that Bowen will play this week, I’m taking him out. I’m bringing in Mount as a good consistent point scorer at a decent value. With Sterling starting, I’m leaving him in for this week. Bowen outMount in

GW Points: 43Overall Points: 1687Overall Rank: 58,383Transfers: None used Being out of transfers probably played into my hands in game week 29 – I’d have probably taken Sterling and Maddison out a week ago if I had transfers but as my hands were tied, I ended up picking up 13…

GW Points: 62Overall Points: 1644Overall Rank: 61,458Transfers: Vardy out, Mane inJames out, Rudiger in Game week 28 was another massively frustrating week. 62 points on the board but another slight drop on the leaderboard. Not what I was hoping for given that the team showed signs of improvement through February…

I’m not going to be around again today to make this transfer. However, I’m going to do it now instead. I’m bringing in Rudiger for the injured James. Chelsea have decent fixtures for the rest of the month and it was Rudiger that I was originally going to go for….

As Vardy is injured, he’s coming out. Mane will come in – as long as he starts in the early kick off. I’m making the transfer now as I’m not around this morning. However, if Mane is on the bench, I will reverse the transfer and take Vardy out later…

GW Points: 43Overall Points: 1582Overall Rank: 55,563Transfers: Matip out, Vardy inRonaldo out, Kane inDias out, James in Game week 27 really didn’t go to plan, after weeks of making some progress on the leaderboard, this week resulted in a significant drop. Not only that but two out of the three…

I’ve decided to use 3 transfers for the start of March. Taking a more risky approach to try and gain some ground on the leaderboard. If you’re already flying high, I wouldn’t recommend following this advice. My initial thoughts were to swap Ronaldo, Matip and Dias for Rudiger, Kane and…

GW Points: 69Overall Points: 1539Overall Rank: 43,634Transfers: None used Game week 26 was another fairly solid performance from the team, if I were higher up on the leaderboard I’d be happy with 69 points but because I’m still playing catch up it’s not enough to make a significant jump. Overall…
