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.

Arsenal
Reduced Cesc Fabregas’ starts and overall projection.
Increased Aaron Ramsey’s starts and overall projection.

Aston Villa
Another clean sheet added to Villa’s defence and midfield to take Villa on to a predicted 12 clean sheets for the season.

Blackburn
Ryan Nelsen’s starts reduced – Gael Givet and Grant Hanley’s increased accordingly.

Bolton
Added Tyrone Mears Projection. Reduce Greter Steinsson and Sam Ricketts as a result.
Added Chris Eagles and Nigel Reo Coker. Full revision of Bolton’s midfield projections following the injury to Chung Yong Lee. Mark Davies’ projection in particular, has been boosted.

Full revision over the squad.
Frank Lampard’s overall projection reduced as a result of his recent deep lying role pre-season.
Youssi Benayoun’s starts and overall projection increased as a result of his pre-season form.

Everton
Mikel Arteta’s starts and overall projection decreased.
Victor Anichbe’s starts and overall projection increased.
Jermaine Beckford’s starts and overall projection increased. Louis Saha’s starts and projection reduced accordingly.

Fulham
Full revision over the squad

Liverpool
Reduced Jamie Carragher’s starts and projection. Increased Dan Agger’s accordingly.
Slightly reduced Luis Suarez starts and projection.

Man United
Slight tweaks to the projections of Rafael, Fabio, Wayne Rooney, Javier Hernandez , Tom Cleverley and Dimitar Berbatov.

Reduced starts and projection for Leon Best. Slight tweaks to Demba Ba and Shola Ameobi.

Norwich City
Reduced Elliot Ward starts and projection increased Zak Whitebread accordingly.

QPR
Reduced Kasper Gorkss starts and projections. Revised the defence as a result.

Sunderland
Slight revision to the defence.

Tottenham
Slight tweaks to the midfield and forward projections.

West Brom

    Given (Ruddy)
    Cole, Kompany, Hughs (Simpson, Wilkinson)
    Z’Zobia, Taarabt, Sinclair, Barton (Moses)
    Rooney, Van Persie, Suarez

    Or

    Given (Ruddy)
    Cole, Kompany, Hughs (Simpson, Wilkinson)
    Malouda, Taarabt, Silva, Barton (Moses)
    Holt , Van Persie, Suarez

    I chose Rooney for Holt rather than Van Persie since Man U are slow starters. I Don't know whether to go for ownage up front or have the Man city/ Chelsea coverage in midfield. Don't know whether to swap suarez for Odemwingie, will he start. And Barton obviously will need rethought closer to the time. Aaaargh feel like I'm at square one, what you guys think should I go with one of these?

    I can't help everyone, and as much as I'd like to, I can't always be around.

    I have a life, and I'm going to live it for a bit now. There are loads of fantastic posters on this forum, many of whom are better, more experienced players than I am. Look to them for advice, a different point of view always helps. In the end though, it's your choice, your decision on the team.

    The best players are the ones who can decide for themselves and make rational choices based on their own analysis. I don't see any of the guys from last year's top 100 come on here and ask constantly for RMTs. They're all going their own way, and using this forum to gather information which will make their decisions more informed.

        Pesonally I would choose Norman Bates, he is a tricky little customer who has great execution in the final third and has solid family values which ensure a great work ethic in the game.

      It's a tough one alright, personally it seems a bit steep for my tastes.

      Everton are quite inconsistent and notoriously slow starters I wouldn't expect too much from Baines in the way of clean sheets despite Everton's decent opening run of fixtures.

      This leaves him depending on attacking returns to justify his price, Areteta's fitness and form will have such a big effect on Baine's output due to uncertainty over penalties and set pieces I would want some solid information from Moyes on the matter of Arteta's fitness and role on set pieces before I would consider Baines.

      I personally am going for A.Cole intially in the expensive defender bracket and seeing how teams shape up over the first few fixtures before making changes to suit.

      Personally Taarabt, not becasue I prefer the player in FPL terms but becasue I think QPR's fixtures are much better than Sunderland's and the whole team attack is built around him, I see decent points returns from him early on possibly tailing off as QPR lose the cup tie team spirit after a few drubbings from the big boys and pick up injuries.

      There are plenty of other great 6.5 options if Taarabt turns out to be a busted flush also.

      be careful not to have too many "risks"

      Enrique - injured atm "i think" - will be a steal at pool tho
      Wilshere - doesnt score to many in FPL terms
      Suarez - might not make first game
      Nani - rotation risk last season (even more so this season i reckon)
      Ferguson - the only logical reason to have him in your team is to free up funds, he will not get much game time so i would avoid
