Caribou & Kräfta: Norwegian & Swedish Football Chat!

[2023] MLS Fantasy Football Smalltalk: Gameweek NINE!

We're both still looking for that almost-guaranteed but highly-coveted Champion's League spot but we're both not as close as we'd like to be!
Gameweek Nine surely gives us that chance to get closer to that goal with some nice fixtures to sink our teeth into. We're looking back at the relevant statistics from Gameweek Eight as well as looking for season-to-date standout performers. There's a lot of players who have been consistent so far, but there's also some good players who are finding their feet a bit more recently!
We give our 5 Definites and our Yet to Return picks as ever, and as you can bank on being the case every week, we cover pretty much everything we can think of to make sure you're ready for the upcoming Gameweek!

[2023] Allsvenskan Fantasy Football Smalltalk: Gameweek FOUR!

The Allsvenskan continues to surprise us with more strange results as Häcken lost 3-1 at home to Kalmar, Hammarby fell victim to a resurgent AIK, losing 2-0 in Stockholm and Djurgården lost 2-0 to newly promoted Halmstads, prominent centre forward Edvardsen remaining an unused substitute for the away side!
We go over the standout players, clubs and statistics of Gameweek Three as well as looking at the season as a whole to date.
As ever there's key debate questions and we look ahead for the upcoming Gameweek Four, pinpointing who we recommend to get the most of out some juicy-looking fixtures ahead.

[2023] Eliteserien Fantasy Football Smalltalk: Gameweek THREE!

Neither of us played a chip this week and as we recorded before Lillestrøm beat Godset 4-3 on Wednesday 19th April, we were unable to discuss how that fully played out during this episode.
We look back at Gameweek Two (bar the above result) and ahead to Gameweek Three, and as well as giving player recommendations there's also some reviews of the games from the previous round. All games will be covered through end-of-week articles to be published on the website, so make sure you visit cariboukrafta.com!
There's a couple of players we think look good for this week you perhaps won't have considered and I'm very confident that ReindeerHotdog's captaincy pick for Gameweek Three will not be too popular!

Feature Chat: Sam Rogers

Following Rosenborg's 1-0 home win against Viking in the 2023 Eliteserien season opener, we got talking to Rosenborg centre-back Sam Rogers.
Sam followed ex-HamKam manager Kjetil Rekdal to Rosenborg at the start of 2022, and has been an important part of the Trondheim club's defence ever since.
We got chatting with him about what we can expect from the club in 2023, how they'll be looking to improve on last season and how his role could potentially change this season and what kind of impact that will have on him and the rest of the team.
We also talk about his international debut for the USA men's team earlier this year and how that can push him on to have an even more successful season. 
There's even some more quickfire questions at the end plus much more! 

[2023] MLS Fantasy Football Smalltalk: Gameweek EIGHT!

Gameweek Seven has been and gone and despite both of us reaching the 100+ club it feels like we missed an opportunity to get even more points!
We look ahead to Gameweek Eight, and as ever go through all the best odds, teams to target and which players we'll be backing.
There's also a more trimmed dive into the statistics but we don't leave too much to the imagination!
Yet to Return, 3 Definites and our captaincy picks are also features in this episode as ever.
Good luck and hopefully green arrows are aplenty! 

[2023] Eliteserien Fantasy Football Smalltalk: Gameweek TWO!

Our 2023 was our second most popular podcast episode EVER, so hopefully our follow-up episode can be just as popular!
We look back at the opening games of the new season and go over any players who stood out and why we should be interested in them for Gameweek Two as well as who we should avoid.
There's a double gameweek for a couple of teams, but we think it's one don't need to invest in for a couple of reasons!
We go through all of the most pressing issues for the upcoming gameweek and discuss how best to handle a couple of tricky situations involving an injured player, a blanking player and potential in players we certainly weren't considering during pre-season!

[2023] Allsvenskan Fantasy Football Smalltalk: Gameweek THREE!

Gameweek Two is done, so it's time to look ahead to Gameweek Three!
We go over some pressing statistics from the relevant players as well as try to make sense of some early season form for some of the teams.
There's always going to be certain questions most managers want answering so we're hoping we've covered you this week with our new debate segment - we discuss the pressing issues and give you something to think about rather that simply saying whether you're right or wrong!
We're focusing on bringing you all the info you need without any bloating - this episode absolutely does that!

We look at the best teams from 2022 and the top performing players, along with a whole host of other helpful bits of information to give you the best start to the 2023 Fantasy campaign.
