With team news for Sundayโ€™s games still rolling in and the Fantasy deadline pushed back by 24-hours, this weekโ€™s Scout Picks will follow on Saturday afternoon. In the meantime voting for our end of season awards goes on.

Weโ€™ve added the third of our polls today, collecting your votes on the midfielders who have lit up your Fantasy season. Once again you have four votes available to you, allowing the love to spread around an array of nominations.

Cast your votes now and pop back tomorrow for the Scout Picks, a preview of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup Final and an interview with Fantasy Premier League leader Chris McGurn.

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

              On a serious note I am surprised by the Lamps "love". I am thinking of benching him and bringing in Modric. Fancy Spurs to score a few to relegate Brum (sorry Brum fans). I reckon the Chelsea game will be a damp squib.

      Kuyt is finished for me with Carroll back (pens aside). In fact, I would only include Adam and Ohara in my list (biased of course as I have them) I also think Modric and Nzogbia are the way forward.

        Really though 15 goals, 5 starts and 6 goals 18 starts. So less than 30% chance of more than 1 goal based on his starts this season. This should be a prime opportunity though.

          May not be on pens if Doyle is back (not sure though tbh). He is still a decent option, either way. I just feel Modric is the better option.

        I did VDV to Adam with my transfer to eliminate Adam as a differential. I could use 4 points to bring in Bent and bench A.Young, my lead goes to 21, but I remove the Bent-Young differential. I am trying to decide who can hurt me the most of the Dawson five.
