The Fantasy Football Scout Leagues Round Up

With the third international break of the season upon us, we’re afforded time to assess the leader contenders in the Fantasy Football Scout leagues across in a variety of games. With leagues in Fantasy Premier League (FPL), Ultimate Fantasy Premier League, Sky Sports and the Fantasy iTeam (FiT) Champions League game, there’s plenty to catch up on.

Fantasy Premier League

Adam Stuckert sits atop the Scout League with a total of 758 points after the first 11 Gameweeks. Adam – who notched 72 points in the previous round of fixtures – had the likes of Tim Krul, Nathaniel Clyne, Leighton Baines, Alexis Sanchez, Sergio Aguero and captain Graziano Pelle to thank for steering him to number one in the overall standings.

Vasil Raykov is just seven points behind in second spot, or third overall. He also has the likes of Baines, Clyne, Sanchez, Pelle and Aguero on board, with Brad Guzan, Gylfi Sigurdsson, Nacer Chadli and Diego Costa amongst his starters as he racked up 89 points last time around despite, like Adam, handing the armband to Pelle. Intriguingly, Vasil is the only one of our top five to have played his wildcard at this stage.

In third spot sits Matthew Furlong, on the back of a 92-point Gameweek 11. His decision to captain Aguero paid off handsomely, with the usual suspects such as Baines, Clyne, Sanchez, Sigurdsson, Chadli and Costa all amongst the points last time around.

Matthew sits just one point ahead of both Petter Gullestad and Mariusz Fyrstenberg. Petter registered 79 points in Gameweek 11, with his decision to captain Aguero reaping rewards, whilst he also had the likes of Baines, Sigurdsson and Sanchez as part of his starting XI. Another one to hand the armband to Aguero, Mariusz delivered 82 points – he’ll be hoping his decision to retain United’s Angel di Maria will prove a differential amongst our top five.

Thanks to those five managers, we’re currently retaining our spot at the top of the League of Leagues. You can join our classic league using the code 11856-4526.

Hitesh Gulati is a new entry at number one in the Scout Members league, which sits fifth in the league of leagues. He sits fifth in the overall standings, despite deciding to ignore the consistent Leighton Baines to this point, with 749 points accrued. Peter Chesley earns second spot with a total of 731 points, just edging Matt Summers into third by a single point.

Ultimate Fantasy Premier League

Lawrence White is the leader of our UFPL Scout league, after a 99-point haul in Gameweek 11 took his total to 884 for the season – second overall. Joe Hanmer is in second spot with his total of 869 points placing him 13th in the world, whilst Geoff Shotter is 13 points further behind in third spot. To join our UFPL league, use the code 524-87.

Sky Sports Fantasy Football

Jason Callender leads the way in the Scout league with a total of 826 points – that’s enough for third place in the overall standings and earns him a 38-point lead over our second place manager, Ryan Hutton. Martin Smith takes third spot after Gameweek 13 of the Sky Sports offering, with a total of 782 points helping to 32nd spot overall. The winner of our Sky league, which is also top in the league of leagues, wins £1,000. To join up, the league name is FFScout and the code is 8009000.

Champions League

Our official Champions League game this season is the Fantasy iTeam (FiT) offering – a free, reliable and easy-to-use Fantasy football app. After four rounds of Matchdays, Daniel Lord heads the Scout League with 328 points, whilst Waleed Cherif (314 points) and Simon Gow, on 313 points, grab second and third respectively. There’s an iPad mini on offer to the winner – the league name is Fantasy Football Scout and the pin is 11155.

We’ve set up another league for those still following the official Champions League game. Simon Butt is the leader on 316 points – 28th overall – and is followed by sidharth91 and gkalaf on 315 and 313 points respectively.

    With Steven Taylor ruled out with injury I need to find a sub 4.1 defender to replace him. I've been looking at Yun (QPR, 3.9). Is his game time secure? QPR have improved recently as well. Already have Hutton. Any other options I should consider?

    Forster / Given
    Baines / Hutton / NTaylor / Colo / Moore
    Sanchez / Ramsey / Chadli / Downing / Boyd
    Kun / Costa / Austin

    1FT, 2.6 ITB

    Ramsey > Hazard is an obvious, right ?

    Krul // Foster

    Clyne // Chambers // Baines // Vlaar // Naylor

    Sanchez // Tadic // Siggy // Chadli // Boyd

    Aguero // Costa // Pelle

    Do you still think Tadic + Pelle > Hazard + Austin are my best moves?

      I'd be tempted to keep the southampton boys for one more week (playing Villa!)

      Tadic may be a doubt as he picked up a knock on internationals. Move him to Downing?

      Ha, we would have very similar teams (the same front 8 as I'm going to upgrade Downing to Siggy at some point too) I would go for it !

      What a huge blow Colo is. With him out I wouldn't back Dummett either, so I'm not sure who to replace Bertrand with. I'll look into it and get back to you. WHU defender at first thought? Cresswell?

    This Coloccini news has really scuppered my defender plans. With those defenders gone I don't think Newcastle can be trusted, I've still got two Saints to get rid of, Baines' injury doubt, Hutton still red flagged, and Chambers v United and Naylor v Man City. What an absolute disaster it's lining up to be.

    I'm thinking Tadic > Hazard for (h) to WBA then > ADM (h) to Hull + Stoke?

    Good plan or just keep Hazard @ Sunderland + (h) to Spurs?

          if he is not injuried he is still good for an assist...and hazard though looks good but has always been delivering 2pts. i will take a risk and have 2ft next gw

    Im thinking of changing formation from 343 to 352 to get in the midfielders I long for. This gives me the opportunities to have a striker as a sub. I'm thinking of going for Harry Kane, currently at 4.8. He plays in a decent team, his fellow strikers are absolutly shit (adebayor, soldado) whereas he has performed well in spurs nonpremierleague matches. What do you think about his long term chances of being spurs main striker this season? Worth a punt to get a possible growth i team value and the possibility to rotate him with midfielder who is out of form or playing a superior team?

      If you end up with a 3-5-2 and 5 stong mids I would sell one who is out of form not rotate with Kane. I do think Kane will begin to start more PL games but I don't think he will score enough to merit a shift in formation
