At first, I got really curious about the FPL price change. I started by logging into my FPL account. I clicked around on the different player pages, checking out their current prices.
Checking the Player Stats
I then dived into the player stats section. I scrolled through the goals, assists, and clean sheets data of the top players. I compared the stats of players in the same position. For example, I looked at how many goals the strikers had scored in the last few matches. I noticed that some players with high goal – scoring records had their prices going up.
Following the News
I started following football news websites and social media accounts. I read articles about player injuries, suspensions, and team form. I found out that if a key player was injured, the price of his substitutes might increase. I also learned that if a team was on a winning streak, the prices of their attacking players usually went up.
Analyzing Team Fixtures
I printed out the fixture list of all the Premier League teams. I marked the easy and difficult fixtures for each team. I realized that players from teams with a run of easy fixtures were more likely to have price hikes. For instance, if a team was facing bottom – half teams in the next few games, their players’ prices were likely to increase.
Looking at the Transfer Rumors
I kept an eye on transfer rumors. If there were rumors that a player was going to move to a bigger club, his price would often increase. I remember one time when there were rumors that a young midfielder was going to join a top – four club, his price shot up overnight.
Final Thoughts
After all these steps, I’ve come to understand that FPL price changes are influenced by a bunch of factors. Player performance, team form, fixtures, injuries, and transfer rumors all play a role. By keeping track of these factors, I’ve been able to make better decisions in my FPL team selection. It’s been a fun and rewarding experience to figure out how these things work together to affect the FPL prices.
