The Fantasy Football Scout Leagues Round Up

With leagues across the Fantasy Premier League (FPL), Sky Sports and Sun Dream Team we have plenty to analyse before tomorrow’s deadlines. We also look at those who are a little richer after having a great week in our PlayON game and offers a head-up for the first Fantasy Football Scout Cup competition of the season.

Fantasy Premier League

David Wilson climbs to the top of the Scout League thanks to an 83-point haul last weekend. His decision to captain Luis Suarez proved crucial, whilst Roberto Soldado and Olivier Giroud chipped in with a goal apiece as David moved to 27th spot overall on 624 points.

Cavan McDonald climbs to second after racking up 84 points in Gameweek 9. He also captained Suarez and picked up points from Sergio Aguero and Daniel Sturridge up top, whilst his tactic of doubling up on Southampton at the back paid off once again.

Henry Carpenter Clawson also moved up the rankings thanks to captain Suarez. Leighton Baines, Michael Dawson and doubling up on the Saints backline helped him rack up four clean sheets – he sits on 615 points overall.

Hemant Gosavi is knocked off the summited after a 62-point Gameweek. Despite eight of his players scored five or more points, his lack of a certain Uruguayan proved costly, while Craig Gavin completes the top five after his Suarez-led team accrued 89 points. The code to join up is 1580-1106.

In the Fantasy Football Scout members league, Wasana Busby climbs back to the top, with captain Suarez, Wayne Rooney and Jan Vertonghen helping him to 91 points last time around. Second spot goes to Angga Haqqu, yet another to hand the Liverpool man the armband, while James Floyd takes third after captaining Suarez and doubling up on the Swansea defence.

Sky Sports Fantasy Football

Ben Broadhurst remains at the top of the Scout League. Having taken over as the leader last week, he has now extended his advantage to 73 points over Leo Reid and Michael Galbraithin joint-second spot – Ben has now climbed up to third in the overall standings and has a total of 747 points, just 14 points from the summit. The winner of our Sky league, which sits in second spot in the league of leagues, wins £1,000. To join, visit Sky Sports Fantasy Football and key in League Name: FFScout, League Code: 8000112.

Sun Dream Team

Rhys Niyazi remains in top spot on 586 points, with five Tottenham players and a couple from Arsenal helping him stave off the threat of Lee Walpole, who is just a single point behind. Jonathan David Nicol is a non-mover in third, as he continues to benefit from the decision to opt for an all-Tottenham defence. To join visit The Sun Dream Team, league name: Fantasy Football Scout, password: ReWOZhn1T1 and PIN: 8061654.

PlayON

Brian Bunclark took first spot in PlayON’s exclusive Fantasy Football Scout £2 game last time around. He picked up £49.68 after opting for five Liverpool players in the 4-1 home win over West Brom, while Gary Pawson and Matti Maata earned £33.30 and £25.20 for finishing second and third respectively.

Fantasy Football Scout Cup

As mentioned last week, we play to roll out entry for the first Scout Cup of the season, with the qualifying round in Gameweek 11. Watch out for an article over the next 24-hours which will explain how to submit your team.

    Some questions this lovely Friday night:

    - Is The Walking Dead worth my time?
    - Should Vidic remain in my squad?
    - How about Barkley/Whittingham to Sessegnon for a transfer. Which one should go?

      First two seasons were good. Third was in a word not. Start to the 4th has been good though. I'd recommend it

      No

      If you are set on it then Whittingham

      Yes.

      If you have kept him this long, yes. Good fixture this weekend, if he is fit.

      Tough one. Barkley might see less game time, but I'm not buying it. He has been playing well this season and was ill last weekend. Cardiff don't look great going forward.

        Thanks, guys. Brought Vidic in GW6, and have kept him through the price drop. He's also amassed a grand total of 1 point for my team, so I think he will have to make it up tomorrow.

        Whittingham it is.

        Whether I will start watchign The Walking Dead is yet to be decided.

    It's official, my gut is nuts. Only had 2 transfers on my mind this week, and they are:

    Barkley -> Silva
    Giroud -> Torres

    Torres© 8-O. Newcastle are a mess right now.

        Hmm. I thought long and hard about it... after all, there are so many options up front. Newcastle really are dire and there's no way of predicting which of Chelsea's midfield will bring home the bacon.

        Fancy Swansea and Michu against Cardiff, so © still not certain.

          I do quite like the Torres punt to be honest. He is a top quality player if only they would play him week in / out. I just preferred the Aguero punt.

    Seen a lot of "West Ham are terrible at home" but to be fair the only result I'd say was unexpected was the defeat to Stoke. Beat Cardiff comfortably, got beaten soundly by City and edged by Everton. What would people expect a mid-to-bottom team to do in those fixtures?

    I'd say their good away form has made their average home form look worse than it is.

    I rate Oscar more than Hazard, yet Oscar doesn't make the watchlist... ðŸ˜

    I just don't want to take out a player in poor form and replace them with a player in poor form, so Oscar seems the better option to me. In a more central role he also has proven to be a greater attacking threat.

      Be wary of ebay sellers. A lot of counterfeit stuff on there.
      This site shows sellers history if you put the names in.
      Often someone selling "1" xbox or such goods has previously sold 100 of them but doesn't say they are in business etc. Usually a sign of dodgy goods.

      Just keep this in mind for ebay.
