4 January 2014 2985 comments

Paul

With time to take stock and assess the lay of the Fantasy landscape, we cast an eye over the Fantasy Football Scout leagues across a variety of games. With leagues in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL), Sky Sports , Sun Dream Team and Champions League games, we have plenty to analyse:

Fantasy Premier League

Luke Weston leads the way on 1,406 points. At the back, he has the likes of Seamus Coleman and Per Mertesacker, whilst Theo Walcott, Eden Hazard, David Silva and Yohan Cabaye are amongst his midfield five. Up top, Luis Suarez, Wayne Rooney and Alvaro Negredo lead the line for Luke, who is also the overall world number one right now.

In second spot sits the world number two, Andry Marpaung. He, too, has Coleman and Mertesacker at the back, with City’s Pablo Zabaleta also part of his defence, whilst Walcott and Cabaye are joined by Kevin Mirallas and Adnan Januzaj in midfield – Andry has opted to retain the stricken Aaron Ramsey on his bench for the meantime. Up top, Loic Remy joins Rooney and Suarez for Andry, who sits 13 points off the summit on 1,393 points.

Luke van Lelyveld climbs to third spot in the Scout league. Again, there are similarities – Coleman and Mertesacker at the back, Walcott, Hazard and Cabaye (joined by Jesus Navas) in midfield, with Rooney and Suarez alongside Romelu Lukaku in the front three. Luke is 16th overall on 1,363 points and is also number one in the Scout Members league.

In fourth spot sits Stian V ge Welde, who is equal on points with Luke and 18th overall. Coleman and Mertesacker are joined by John Terry at the back, whilst Walcott and Cabaye are selected along with Peter Whittingham, Roberto Koren and the injured Ramsey in midfield. Similar to Luke, Stian has also opted for a Rooney/Suarez/Lukaku front three.

Michael Atkins completes our top five after scoring 60 points last time around – more than any of our featured managers. His decision to pair Mertesacker with Bacary Sagna paid off at home to Cardiff, whilst Walcott, Cabaye, Hazard and Silva are joined by Rooney, Suarez and Lukaku up front. Michael is also on 1,363 points – 19th overall.

Clearly, then, whilst our quintet have slightly different teams, there’s a definite pattern emerging, with six players – Coleman, Mertesacker, Walcott, Cabaye, Suarez and Rooney – in each of the five sides. Thanks to their efforts, the Fantasy Football Scout league is top of the Best Leagues as we look to defend our title once again.

In the Fantasy Football Scout Members league, Luke van Lelyveld leads the way, as mentioned. Colin Smyth takes second spot on 1,332 points, whilst a trio of managers (Joe Wilkinson, Andrew Fong and Craig Till) are tucked in behind on 1,319 points apiece.

Sky Sports Fantasy Football

Dammy Olubokun sits in first and second spot. Both his teams are on 1,448 points, which is 14 points ahead of our former leader, Ben Broadhurst, in third position. Dammy’s two teams are joint-third in the overall standings, whilst Ben joins him in the top 10 – he’s currently seventh in the world so far. The winner of our Sky league, which is also top 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

Charles Mouzon is the leader of the Scout League with a current overall score of 1,110 points. His decision to load up on four Arsenal defensive options along with Seamus Coleman has worked wonders, though he currently has injury concerns over the likes of Sergio Aguero, Aaron Ramsey, Paulinho, Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud – of his six midfielders and forwards, then, only Luis Suarez is currently available.

Dan Ward is 16 points behind in second spot. He’s selected the entire Arsenal back-four and keeper and opted for a 4-4-2 but, like Charles, has injury worries ahead – aside from his defenders, only Yaya Toure and Mousa Dembele are fit for selection.

Geoff Pryor completes the top three on 1,089 points. He’s overlooked the Gunners completely at the back and doubled up on Chelsea instead, whilst, further up the field, he has far fewer problems than his rivals – Toure, Suarez, Alvaro Negredo and Oscar are all injury-free.

The winner of our Sun League also earns themselves £1,000 – to join, visit The Sun Dream Team, league name: Fantasy Football Scout, password: ReWOZhn1T1 and PIN: 8061654.

Champions League

DIEGOCHO33 is the Scout League leader after the completion of the group stages. He sits on 487 points – second in the overall rankings and just six points off the summit. Tankax takes second position, with a total of 459 points enough to earn 32nd place overall, whilst socalledstars11 is third in our round-up, five points back and in 61st spot in the world. To join, visit the UEFA website – league name: FFScout, code: 1209685-489925

PlayON

Mark Dowson finished top of the pile in PlayON’s exclusive Fantasy Football Scout £2 game last time around. He takes away £36.43 for his troubles after loading up on five Liverpool and three Arsenal players in midweek. Second placed David Burraway is £24.42 richer, whilst Steve Legg picks up £18.48 for finishing third.

Fantasy Football Scout Cup

We’ve reached the Seventh Round of the Scout Cup and are now down to the final 16. The ties take place over Gameweek 21 – if you fancy having a look at who is still involved, click here for the latest draw.

I was tinkering earlier, and came up with this. What do people think of it? I know a few are out injured, and I really want Baines, but there's £0 in the bank. And yes, I'm 100% going for Hooper instead of Rodriguez or anybody else.

Boruc - Davis
Nastasic - Reid - Apilicueta - Evans - Chester
Silva - Walcott - Hazard - Lallana - Ravel
Suarez - Aguero - Hooper

    Downgrade Lallana and do Azpi / Evans -> Baines if you want him.
    
    You'll be strictly limited to playing 4-3-3 every week though which might not be a bad thing.

        With those backline you might play a 4-4-2 once in a while.
        
        So you want both Hooper and Lallana to stay. And play 3-4-3?
        
        Ravel -> Colback (as TM said, Ravel a waste)

    Yeah, but instead of Reid I can have Rat, and instead of Aguero I can have anyone else. Those three players are pretty much nailed on.
    
    It's either Baines or nothing. And when I wildcard at the end of January I really don't want an Arsenal defender.

        Yeah I play close attention to defensive side of things more than anything. I had Gabbidon since GW 5 seeing Palace's upcoming home fixtures then. Pullis is just a blessing.
        
        And considering the front 7 is pretty much identical and template. The only way to differentiate and get some extra budget for up front is to get the defense right
        
        Ironically I have had dreadful amount of CS these past week. 🙁

        As of right now my current backline is Nasty Coleman Reid/Rat-Chester Ward.
        
        I might upgrade Ward to Kosc for a 3 week punt before shipping him out to Stoke.

Hazard - Silva - Gerrard - Ozil (Walcott if fit) - Jedinak

*3.3m ITB to upgrade Lukaku to Aguero when he returns.

    Interesting. I can't see City getting more than 2 CS in their next 4 games but I can see Arsenal getting 3. Don't really trust City's defence on the road either but I'll definitely be monitoring Nasty. I think Hooper is a good differential too.

Good discussions going on. So DZ like. Cheeky potential RMWC23T?

Boruc Davis
Nasty Coleman Reid Chester Ward
Hazard Walcott Silva Lallana* Mutch
RVP Suarez Bony*

[notes]
1. RVP just to keep Aguero's bench warm. He got Cardiff and Stoke those 2 weeks
2. Considering Ward -> Kosc on GW 27 -> Stoke on GW 30. (rotation)
3. I like writing Bony in my RMTs.
But interchangeable with JRod Adebayor Lukaku and Gerrard Cabaye Eriksen depending on form.

  Also, I'd be a bit nervous about having RVP and Aguero as the cornerstone. RVP seems to have reverted to his prior oft-injured self, and each year that passes makes it harder to rebound. Dedicating that money to him before he has demonstrated his fitness and productivity makes me worry. Aguero is golden when healthy, but his hammies are also wound a bit too tightly for his own good.
  
  Could be golden if they stay healthy, and you can always spend the money on others if they get hurt, but lots of money spent if they are operating at less than 100%

With all the expensive attacking options finally showing up I feel like now more then ever is the time to revisit to the promoted sides' defenses and see who can be an asset to your team going forward especially with wildcard coming into the equation.

Cardiff City: 5 Clean Sheets
Projected Weekly Starters: Ben Turner, Kevin Theophie-Catherine, Andrew Taylor (Injured, Declan John is Filling in), Steven Caulker
BPS Getter: Burner/Caulker
Most Attacking returns: Caulker - 2 Goals
Average price: 4.6
Most Expensive: Caulker, 5.2
Cheapest: Burner, 4.2
Highest Ownership: Caulker, 6.1%
Lowest Ownership: Taylor and Theophile, 0.1%
Next five Fixtures: West Ham (H), Man City (A), Man United (A), Norwich (H), Swansea (A)

Crystal Palace: 5 Clean Sheets
Projected Weekly Starters: Danny Gabbidon, Joel Ward, Damien Delaney, Adrian Mariappa
BPS Getter: Gabbidon
Most Attacking Returns: Gabbidon and Mariappa - 1 Goal
Average Price: 4.2
Most Expensive: Delaney, 4.4
Cheapest: Mariappa: 4.0
Highest Ownership: Gabbidon, 9.5%
Lowest Ownership: Mariappa, 0.2%
Next Five Fixtures: Tottenham (A), Stoke (H), Hull (H), Arsenal (A), West Brom (H)

Hull CIty: 6 Clean Sheets
Projected Weekly Starters: James Chester, Alex Bruce, Maynor Figueroa, Curtis Davies
BPS Getter: Davies
Most Attacking Returns: Chester and Davies - 1 Goal
Average Price: 4.2
Most Expensive: Davies, 4.6
Cheapest: Chester and Bruce, 3.9
Highest Ownership: Chester, 4.6%
Lowest Ownership: Bruce: 0.6%
Next Five Fixtures: Chelsea (H), Norwich (A), Crystal Palace (A), Tottenham (H), Sunderland (A)

-This season a back-line of Hull-Palace-Cardiff has gotten you a Clean Sheet in 65% of Gameweeks and it has given you multiple Clean Sheets in 10% of Gameweeks.

-Average Clean Sheets for Hull-Palace-Cardiff: 5.3, Average Clean Sheets for the entire league: 6.2
--At a much lower price when compared, the promoted sides are averaging less than just one clean sheet compared to the rest of the league.

I hope this helps guys, Good Luck!

So my selling value is pretty poor at 104.7m,which means I won't be able to get as many big hitters as most. My question is, which are the most important big hitters to have? I reckon the order is something like this - thoughts?
