Scout Picks Community Champion Vote – Gameweek 18

As part of our revamped Scout Picks, Mark, myself, Paul and a community champion picked by you each week are up against each other. All four teams are then used to decide our final weekly Scout Picks.

We are now looking for Gameweek 18’s Scout Picks Community Champion to represent you and get one over on The Scouts as well as be in with a chance of winning a special prize. The champion who manages the best Gameweek score (or best score from the first ten matches in a double Gameweek) will win a £100 Amazon voucher.

To put yourself forward simply add in your Gameweek 18 Scout Picks and short 200 word/bullet point explanation for your picks here. For everyone else please upvote the poster you would like to represent you based on their picks.

We only need 11 picks and please be mindful of the budget, which has now been increased to 84m. There’s no captain in the picks either and please stick to a designated FPL formation, including no more than three players from one team.

I’ll leave this vote open until 11am tomorrow (Tuesday). Please note that due to the fast turnaround of Gameweeks the winning submission will be forwarded straight over to Paul on Tuesday morning for the Scout Picks article so it is vitally important that you include your reasons for your picks.

If you need to make any minor tweaks based on injury news please email me at jonty@fantasyfootballscout.co.uk.

Any attempts to disrupt the voting process may lead to the team involved being removed at our discretion. Also the comment section below is for those who want to present their teams and vote. If you have any suggestions on how the Scout Picks can be improved further next year please email me rather than leave a comment below.

    Welbeck to Austin/Kane worth a hit?

    My boxing day offering:

    heaton
    zab baines jevans
    adm eriksen caz siggy
    rvp giroud kane

    heaton's in goal for a misfiring liverpool attack. zabs there as an inform option from a solid defence. baines gets one more chance against stoke who've conceded 7 in the last 5. newcastles defence is in poor shape so i've got rvp and adm in there to reap the reward. leicester's defence is very porous so I'm banking on eriksen and kane benefiting. and then there's giroud.

    Should I replace Azpilicueta with Terry?

    Is he likely to get more game time through the festive period?

    We have a winner. Congratulations Triggerlips.

    Although I'm tempted to disqualify though on account of hardly any explanation given -but I'm feeling Christmassy and will draft Triggerlips's explanation myself.

        Taking a break to make sure we can get the picks and diffs done quickly for gwks 19 and 20. The community champion voting will be back ahead of gwk 21.

      To be fair, Doos also gives tables that're only visible to members, should he be disqualified too?

        I did give some explanations, just didnt want to bore everyone with too much detail, i credited people with enough intelligence to know why they were picked
