Our Player Projections available in the Members’ Area are being updated on a regular basis as the pre-season rolls on and events such as Barton’s fallout and the arrival of Sergio Aguero move the goalposts.

If you’re new to the site – these tables represent the Scout’s predicted returns for Premier League players in terms of goals, assists, clean sheets and several statistics relevant to the Fantasy Premier League game. They can be accessed in the Members Area right here.

There’s been a lot of tweaks over the past 48-hours so, to help our Members get a handle on the changes made, you can read on for a list of the recent activity. You can expect further tweaks to the Projections over the coming days and certainly following the weekend’s final bout of friendly matches.

        I just thought it'd be good to use Zamora the first few weeks since Fulham have relatively easier fixtures.

        I'm weary of playing Nzoggy due to the fact that the new Villa is defence minded, and Zoggy just now transferred. I don't expect him to start playing amazingly just yet.

        Hughes is just my way into fulham defence.

    Not the sandal wearing commandment discoverer that drove the red sea with his WilsonStaff, but 'our' Victor Moses who scored 42pts
    and a whopping 2 points per game.

    Why is it we love him again? Because N'Zogbia left!! So obviously
    Moses will get all the boni!!

    Erm... He's not the new N'Zogbia - he's the same Moses. Wigan have great fixtures!!

    They do. If they were Chelsea. But they aren't. They get stuffed by the likes of their opposition. So my question is (as he is appearing in many RMT's...)

    Is Moses the new Boselli????

      Downing may prove a good pick this season. I thought he was superb last year and with Carroll, Suarez, Kuyt, Gerrard etc all to aim for i think he could easily end up with double figure assists. He's not that expensive either.

    Malouda/N'Zog/VDV/Moses/Taarabt

    Rooney/Zamora/Holt

    I looking to get a real balanced team and I think I've nailed it but looking for any comments or alternatives for that matter.

    Lots of people are getting Hughes from Fulham but is Enrique from Liverpool a better option with his attacking potential? (Though Liverpool's defense has not been too impressive pre-season..)

    Food for thought..

      VDV is a train wreck, imo. Niggles in preseason = likelihood he will not be able to finish 90 mins (shocker). Weeks 2-5 are a bloodbath for Tot.

      Ditch for another blue-chip captain choice and pick him up week 6 or beyond if you wish.
