Considering team structure and staying patient are often keys to success in Fantasy Premier League, but the introduction of unlimited transfers during the FIFA World Cup is set to alter conventional thinking.

Lee Bonfield, of FPL Family, says: "I will be trying to chunk down the season in to quarters.

"You’re going to be looking, probably, at a horizon of about six to eight Gameweeks rather than looking to the longer term this season."

Lee's fellow expert @Pras_fpl believes Fantasy managers can now be more aggressive at the start of the season, with an early Wildcard becoming a far more tempting option.

"I will be a lot more aggressive with my Wildcard ahead of the World Cup and not focus too much on some of the things that you usually do, like structure," he says.
