Merry Christmas From Fantasy Football Scout

Here it is – the one day of the year where I legitimately attempt to prise mind, body and spirit away from Fantasy Football. And here I am posting this.

I will keep this short, saving a more prolonged retrospective and preview of things to come for the New Year’s message.

However, while I’m here and feeling warm and fuzzy, I’d like to speak for everyone associated with Fantasy Football Scout and extend a huge thank you for your fantastic support and for the contributions you make to what is, in my opinion, one of the very best football communities around.

Now, for once, I encourage you to tear your retinas’ away from the screen, shelve those thoughts of overlooking Zlatan as captain and edge back to families and friends. They may not be able to help guide your captaincy dilemma but we’ll all be here to help when you get back.

From all at Fantasy Football Scout, we wish you and your family a very merry Christmas.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Happy holiday!!

    Foster

    Toby, Alonso, Amat (Pieters, Wilson)

    Siggy, Hazard(c), Sanches, Mane & Zaha

    Zlatan, Carroll (Gray)

    G2G? maybe Gabriel to Amat for a hit?

    Merry Christmas to everyone!!!
    I am looking my wilcard for this gw and i want to choose one of these three teams.I want to choose b) but i think Mane has more chances to give me something in the next 3 gws than Lallana and also i think Siggy will give me points only in one gw of the next 3.
    a) Amat/Jones/Ward/Gabriel/Nyom
    Walcott/Sanchez/Hazard/Mane/Arfield
    Costa/Barnes/Ibra

    b)Amat/Jones/Ward/Gabriel/Nyom
    Walcott/Sanchez/Hazard/Siggy/Lallana
    Costa/Barnes/Ibra

    c)Amat/Jones/Ward/Gabriel/Alonso
    Walcott/Sanchez/Hazard/Siggy/Arfield
    Costa/Barnes/Ibra

    Any thoughts?

      Hadn't even heard of Barnes or Arfield. Mane goes to AFCON so not A. I think Chelsea defence is essential now so I would lead towards C.

    What happened to Gink, Giggs Boson, Elnino Rules, Snake Juice, Scroobius Mac, Henry Hill, Colonel Shoe, Isacki, 4Vets??

    Are any of them on here anymore?

      Colonel has been on recently.
      GB has been poorly apparently. The rest have been quiet for years now I'd say.

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 2 months ago

        Sad to hear GB hasn't been doing well 🙁

        It's a shame when good posters come and go, to be expected I guess.

  8. The Big Fella

    Walcott or Sigurdsson?

    Need some advice if anyone has a spare sec please.

    In need of a Chelsea defender Cahill/Alonso. Is it worth selling Lovren for -4 this GW? I'll need 2 moves next week to get Kun most probably hence the rush

    Festive cheerz

      You'd go Azpi over Cahill...boy's a bonus point magnet.

      Alonso's probably still (just about) the one to get...effectively a midfielder with clean sheet bonus

      Wouldn't transfer Lovren out for a hit...not with Arnie-less Stoke at home. Mignolet in goal makes them a bit more robust.

      If Matip goes to ACON, then definitely ship Lovren

    So following Xmas Roast, the Annual Family gathering soon got embroiled in fervent fantasy footie conversation! Yes my Dad remembers Liam Brady and Paul Mariner as Gooners blah blah ; but I remember Bergkamp and Henry and Pires - time passes and if Walcott can keep me at the top of my table this season, dammit I'm gonna crow about it!! having found the most fantasy success so far this season, the difference has to be that I'm the only Scout Member in the family; may all who contribute to the site 365 days a year and all who use the site have a very Merry Christmas - and sing ffs praises for Enabling the ability to gloat at least once this season

    Merry Christmas all. There is someone in my public head to head league who has 1078pts and is ranked 338 in world. Yet he is only 10th in the public league out of 20. How is that even mathematically possible ??!! He must be the the most unlucky head to head player on earth.
