With leagues across the Fantasy Premier League (FPL), Sky Sports, Sun Dream Team and Champions League games, we have plenty to analyse before tomorrow’s deadlines. We also look at those who are a little richer after having a great week in our PlayON game and offer the first details of the season’s opening Fantasy Football Scout Cup competition.
Fantasy Premier League
Hemant Gosavi holds steady at the Scout League summit after a 56 point haul last weekend. Arsenal trio Olivier Giroud, Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil produced 34 points between them, while Daniel Sturridge and Oscar also chipped in with a goal apiece as Hemant moved to 34th in the overall standings.
David Wilson climbs to second on the back of a 78 point return in Gameweek 8. Captain Luis Suarez, Eden Hazard and Roberto Soldado all delivered, as did Ramsey and Giroud, with David now sitting on 541 points – 64th spot overall. Ed C drops to third after his decision to captain Romelu Lukaku failed to pay off, though he had the Ramsey-Ozil-Giroud points to bolster his total.
In fourth spot is JohnFootyManagerTV who racked up a monster haul of 109 points. He handed Hazard the armband and also had Sergio Aguero, Soldado, Sturridge, Ozil, Ramsey and Paulinho to thank as all of his front seven produced attacking points.
Finally, Henry Carpenter Clawson completes the top five after producing 73 points at the weekend. His decision to hand the armband to Mesut Ozil at home to Norwich proved a masterstroke, while Suarez, Giroud and Steven Gerrard helped him move to 534 points overall. The code to join up is 1580-1106.
In the Fantasy Football Scout Members league, Andrew Childerhouse moves into top spot after picking up 64 points last weekend – Ozil, Giroud and Sturridge were joined by David Silva in picking up the points. Phil Moreton sits in second on 503 points – just three points off the top, whilst former leader Wasana Busby drops down to third spot.
Sky Sports Fantasy Football
Ben Broadhurst takes over at the top of the Scout League. He climbs from third last week to the summit and now sits in 630 points – 18th spot in the overall standings. Alan Davey tucks in behind in second spot on 611 points, whilst Daniel Brookfield slips from second to third spot on 604 points. The winner of our Sky league, which has climbed back to first spot in the league of leagues, wins £1,000.

The Sun Dream Team
Rhys Niyazi climbs from second spot to this week’s summit, with his decision to load up on five Tottenham and two Arsenal players continuing to look a wise one. Rhys sits on 541 points overall, just four ahead of Geoff Pryer, who moves up from third last time around – only one of his XI, Simon Mignolet, doesn’t have European duties, with Michu’s goal for Swansea last night helping his cause. Jonathan David Nicol completes the top three, with the entire Spurs backline and keeper continuing to rack up the points.

Champions League
Diegocho33 leads the way after Tuesday and Wednesday’s fixtures. His decision to captain Zlatan Ibrahimovic proved inspired as the Swede’s four-goal haul for PSG against Anderlecht boosted Diegocho33’s overall score to 302 points and helped him to number one spot in the overall rankings. Load O Ballacks moves into second after he also captained the PSG forward – a 108-point haul over the midweek matches earns him second spot in the overall standings, just two points off the summit. Petumon1 is a little way back in third on 283 points overall – he also had Ibrahimovic in his front three but choose to hand the armband to Cristiano Ronaldo. The details for joining our mini-league are: league name FFScout, league code 1209685-489925.
PlayON
Michael Penfold took first spot in PlayON’s exclusive Fantasy Football Scout £2 game last time around. His decision to load up on the likes of Mesut Ozil, Sergio Aguero, Andros Townsend and Oscar earned him £39.74, while Dom Lawrence and Derek Orton completed the top three, earning £26.64 and £20.16 respectively.
The Fantasy Football Scout Cup
We’ve been working on a new admin system to run our Cup tournaments this season and we’re now in final testing ahead of the first tournament.
