With cheque books fluttering on the eve of the transfer window slamming shut, our Fantasy seasons could be transformed by some notable new arrivals. In this week’s ScoutCast episode, Granville and I chew over the latest fresh faces to crash the player list – United’s “Angel” Di Maria and Liverpool’s “Devil” Balotelli.

With just a single point between us and the comfort of top 100k placings, my co-host and I are more than just a little content as we the rule over the current bandwagons and preview another weekend’s action. It won’t last.

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

    This might be a noob question, but what is the deal with the sub order? Anyway they'll all get no pts right? Does this mean that if a starter doesn't play your sub will get points? Can someone explain this to me...

    1. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      So long as it's a legal formation your first sub will come on if you have a player in the 11 get 0 minutes.

    2. HUMZAH96
      11 years, 10 months ago

      If your starter doesn't play your 1st choice sub will come on. If your 1st choice didn't play then you 2nd, and so on.

    3. Zep

      Your first sub, i.e, the one of the left (not the sub keeper) will always come on for anyone who doesn't play, but only if it doesn't break any of the formation rules...

      For example, if you play 3-4-3, and one of your defenders doesn't play, but your 1st sub is a midfielder... this means you will get your second sub (providing he also played) into your team...

        Alright! I got it. Thank you guys!

  2. HUMZAH96

    Do you think it would have been possible to do well WITHOUT Suarez last season?

    1. The Finnisher
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Depends what you mean by 'well'.

      Obviously it would have been possible, but would have to be near perfect.

      1. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Top 100k? Even more?

        Doubt that high though...

        1. The Finnisher
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Top 100K? Certainly. Yes he was miles above any other player but I'd bet there were quite a few in the top 100K who didn't have Suarez.

          1. Geordienufc1
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            I seem to recall fpl discovery revealing that there was 1 person in the top 1K who went the whole season without Suarez!

            1. HUMZAH96
              11 years, 10 months ago

              What a legend he is loool

              Nutter in my opinion

              1. PÍE
                • 11 Years
                11 years, 10 months ago

                Hi, Pie here.
                That's me - i finished last season ranked 797 without having Suarez all season.

    2. Lallana_
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      No

    3. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      No

    4. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Possible yes. If you were a psychic/ had a time machine, you could be transferred in the honest few scorers (not including suarez) every week, captained one of them and voila, massive score.

      Of course, in practice you would've done a lot worse with him.

      1. Scoredelario
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Nice phone typos. *Could've, *highest

    5. @FPLMason
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      In mls yes
      In overall no

    6. mipola
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      There was 1 person in top 10k who didnt own Suarez even once last season.

      1. PÍE
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Aye - that was me.
        I finished last season ranked 797th without having Suarez at all.

        1. mipola
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Nicely done!

  3. Lallana_
    • 12 Years

    @BlueToffee

    Future Liverpool:

    Balotelli Sturridge
    Sterling
    Coutinho Henderson
    Can
    Moreno Lovren Sakho Manquillo
    Mignolet

    Subs: Ibe, Flanagan, Allen, Borini, Markovic, Wisdom, Coates, Ilori, Teixeira, Suso, Ward, Mclaughlin, Luis Alberto, Yesil, etc. Might of missed a few. Decent future!

    1. chrisjdgrady
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Not bad

    2. RoyaleBlue
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      not a bad derby on the hands mate.Looks strong

      1. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Yup, should be a great game this year too. Lukaku was a great signing.

    3. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      You say future team yet it's pretty much just the current team 😕

      1. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Yup. We have a really young squad.

    4. Gloria Kanchelskis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Not one of these homegrown? Sterling the closest as he was signed young

    5. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Where does Lallana fit in?

    6. Third Eye Vision
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      A derby without Gerrard is a future I await.

  4. Grounderz
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Not understanding the appeal on Bony. Saw lots of teams/RMT with Bony. Can someone fill me in here?

    1. chrisjdgrady
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      He killed it last season and Swansea are doing well so far. Priced well

    2. HUMZAH96
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Top scorer in the Dutch league, had a season to settle in the BPL, now it's go time

    3. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Have you not watched him play? Goal machine. I'm not interested atm though

      1. Grounderz
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        He's been subbed off regularly and hasn't scored any goals yet. Facing competition from Gomis, although Monk has said they might be paired up.

        8.5m, I just don't know if I would want to put my money there...

        1. chrisjdgrady
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          2 games in, has some new players around him, maybe just needs a little more time before he stars firing. Took him a while last season then he was a beast

    4. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      On penos, scored lots last year

      New to FPL?

      1. Grounderz
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        No, I'm not. In fact, been playing a few seasons to know certain players - e.g. Cisse played very well when he came in in the January transfer window and performed poorly the following season.

        So, some players do have that and looks like Bony is going towards that direction. Of course, these stats are just temporary.

        1. Twelve years a slave
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          He played two games, one away to utd. Has had a shot cleared off the line and been unlucky not to score. But on that basis he will be no good?

  5. HUMZAH96
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Okay, Suarez was an essential... who do you think is the next essential?

    I say Ramsey (if he stays fit and learns how to play without Giroud in the team)

    1. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Hazard

      1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        I agree with Ramsey. Can't stop scoring. Aguero when fit as well.

        1. HUMZAH96
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Aguero is class when fit... it's the last bit that's a problem

    2. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      No one is on that level of essential ness this season. It open. Not sure whether that's a good thing

      1. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 10 months ago

        I think so, more variety... but at the same time captaincy stress like this GW

    3. Lallana_
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Nobody is essential this year. I don't think we'll see an outstanding performer like Suarez or RvP this time around...who knows though.

      1. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 10 months ago

        You never know...

    4. Gloria Kanchelskis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Ramsey and possibly Fabregas too

  6. Arrow Marked Drogba
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Morning peops, need some advice as who to play in defence 2mor inClyned to play Hutton though?

    A) Clyne-away whu
    B)Hutton- home v hull(euro hangover)

    1. HUMZAH96
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I'd go for Hutton

      What are you plans for Hutton btw? You seen his next fixtures?

      1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        With regards Hutton, a possible shift to Dummett I think is the best bet unless your funds can stretch beyond.

        1. Grumpy Camel
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Agree, can likely get away without doing that for a couple of weeks though.

        2. Arrow Marked Drogba
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Replied bottom of page lol, ya I'm just going to hold for now can't afford to waste a transfer on him...

          1. Arrow Marked Drogba
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            Might consider Pva if anyone...got krull already so not keen to double up on Newcastle Def

    2. @FPLMason
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      B

  7. Ninjaa
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    My team for this week. Views please chaps?

    Guzan

    Terry Jones N.Taylor

    Hazard(vc) Ramsey Sterling Sigurdsen

    Rooney Jovetic(c) Fletcher

    Sub's: Krul King Ferdinand Chester (suspended)

    1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Should do reasonably well I think. I'd be more inclined to play Krul over Guzan as I fancy Villa to concede more than Newcastle this week.

      1. Ninjaa
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks

    2. @FPLMason
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Krul over Guzan imo

    1. Zep
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Thanks for your efforts, mate...

      1. Arvin-ation

      Enjoy this GW, last one for 2 weeks

  9. 1314
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Best 4.5 midfielder ?

    1. HUMZAH96
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Albrighton is who I have, he is very attacking, but the problem is will he start?

      1. Grumpy Camel
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Im holding Marney but don't expect much more than 2 if i need to play him. Seems nailed on at least.

  10. Eleven Geckoes
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    What 4.5 or 4.0 midfielder to replace Marney?
    Thinking maybe King or Wanyama ?

    1. Ninjaa
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      King looks to be a regular starter. Gets forward too

      1. Eleven Geckoes
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks!

    2. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Why replace him? He just has a knock and no other 4.5 mids are doing better at this stage, seems a waste of a TF

      1. Eleven Geckoes
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        King scored 7 (H) to Everton.
        May do well (H) to Arsenal?

    3. Zep
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Why do you need to replace Marney at all?

      He's most likely your 5th mid and just bench fodder, no need to replace him, he'll be back playing next week...

      1. ChampionoftheWorld
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        this

      2. Eleven Geckoes
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        3-5 -2 and playing Costa 🙂

  11. Arrow Marked Drogba
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    I'm just going to hold him for now, doesn't fit in to my transfer plans over the next few weeks just hope if he does come on it's 2 points instead of one...

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years

    Any thoughts on when Filipe luis might be nailed on?

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Wish I knew I'm carrying him in my draft team atm. Maybe not until someone gets injured tbh

      1. Gloria Kanchelskis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Replied to your trade offer on Fantrax - made me think but not going to go for it unless I can find a forward through the WW tomorrow.

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Ok fair enough. We'll talk again in the future perhaps 😉

          1. Gloria Kanchelskis
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years

            For sure

            • 12 Years

            Have you seen HOH on here or heard when he's going to start his draft league?

            1. Get up ya bum
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              No mate. I'm keeping an eye out. Hope it's still on. Really good group in that league

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      till now no, he's not nailed on..

    3. Svidde
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I know he is not nailed right now, but at some point he have to be nailed on. He is a class player

    4. HUMZAH96
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I thought he'd be nailed from the start, but Mourinho has a plan, I'd give him a while... enjoy his proce drops as when he's nailed he'll probably be 5.5

  15. The Man Pastore
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Please RMT:

    De Gea (Gilks)
    Cahill Debuchy Clyne (Wisdom Bruce)
    Hazard Ramsey Mata Siggy (Elmohamady)
    Costa Rooney Naismith

    Weakness: De Gea, Wisdom, Bruce, Elmo and Costa if out for 4 weeks or more.

    1FT / 0.4 in the bank

    You are very welcome to give me your suggestions. Thank 🙂

    1. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      De Gea to Krul
      for now then wait and see pressers and injury news after the weekend

      1. The Man Pastore
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        I don't want to use my 1FT for a keeper now. Am I wrong?

        1. Grumpy Camel
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Its more of an enabling TF to get the cash for say Aguero or a Naismith upgrade. Its a boring TF but unless you plan on using WC soon i think DDG needs to go. They look terrible at the back.
          *expect CS now

          1. The Man Pastore
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            I'll wait for some news about Costa's injury and I will see from there. Thanks mate

  16. Game...Blouses
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Correct order?

    Terry
    Van Aanolt
    Bertrand
    Dummett
    Hutton

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

    2. Game...Blouses

      Thanks mate

    3. @FPLMason
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Id play either of Dummett or Hutton over Bertrand

      1. Game...Blouses
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Surely Villa have to let one slip? I meant three clean sheets I'm a row?

    4. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Not for me, I'd be playing Hutton and Dummett over Bertrand and van Aanolt

          I'm always a fan of home players over away ones for the lower 4.5/4.0 defs..

          The clean sheet odds linked above give Southampton and Sunderland almost double the odds of getting a clean sheet of Newcastle and Villa.

    1.9 ITB and 1FT

    COSTA to Jovetic or Aguero?

    Or Bojan and Chester to Jovetic and 4.0?

    Can't wait till tonight as going camping

    1. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      coin flip, i would lean towards 1 with Aguero

        1.

    With Costa likely to just miss 1 game how is this?

    Coloccini to Pieters,
    4 4 2 this weekend.
    I ll have 2 fts next GW then too.
    Another option is RVA

    2 ft's
    DDG/Gilks
    Cahill, Pieters, Naylor, Clyne, Wisdom
    Lamela, Mata, Ramsey, Sigurdsson, Marney
    Jovetic, Rooney, Costa

    1. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years

      why lose colo? I would do DDG to Krul or Mannone and save the cash for Int break

      1. Sz21
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Sorry meant.. Colo in for Pieters.
        Stoke haven't been great.

        1. Grumpy Camel
          • 14 Years

          agree, seems fine then. UTD have been terrible also.

    Quick RMT anyone? (linked in my profile)

    1. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      At least, bother to actually write out your team as a post for us to rate if you want a RMT.

      1. HUMZAH96
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Is clicking a link too much for you?

        1. Arvin-ation
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          You are asking for help. You want help from people on here. You try to make it as easy as possible for them, not easier for you and harder for them. 🙄

          It gets you more opinions anyway. You're better off listening to my advice, but if you don't want to then that's your loss.

          1. HUMZAH96
            11 years, 10 months ago

            I don't really NEED the rmt, just did it so people can see... some have asked me to link it in my profile previously

            1. Arvin-ation
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              People don't really give a crap about your team tbh. They don't just click it to "see" it. 🙄 I'll leave you alone now. Doubt you'll get many opinions on here with your attitude.

      Save transfer imo. Good to go...

      1. HUMZAH96

        Thank you! Already used it though 🙁

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          What transfer you did?

          1. HUMZAH96
            11 years, 10 months ago

            Cameron out and Yoshida in 🙂

            1. Holmes
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              Sorry but Yoshida isn't nailed on anymore. Gardos will soon replace him, might happen this week only

              1. HUMZAH96
                11 years, 10 months ago

                Damn :(, who is Gardos never heard of him lol, new signing?

                1. Holmes
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 10 months ago

                  Yep, signed last week.

                  1. HUMZAH96
                    11 years, 10 months ago

                    I just checked, if he signed last week, his gw history would have started at GW2, but it's at GW1...

                    1. Arvin-ation
                      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                      • 12 Years
                      11 years, 10 months ago

                      So he signed before that? 😕 He's only trying to help.....

                      Gardos is unfit, and that is why he hasn't played yet. He will take Yoshida's spot this week or the next, once he's fit.

                    2. Holmes
                      • 12 Years
                      11 years, 10 months ago

                      Umm... Must have joined training last week then.

                      1. HUMZAH96
                        11 years, 10 months ago

                        What a good transfer then lol he's on the list to take out

        Good score. I can't see much wrong with that. You've used your transfer, no need for a hit. GTG.

    Am I good to go

    Krul
    Terry, Clyne, Hutton
    Ramsey (c), Fabregas, Silva, Sterling, Siggy
    Rooney, Jovetic

    Elliott, Naismith, Moore, Chester

    Bit worried about 2 MCI but could pay off.

    1. HUMZAH96
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Yes, even though 343 is better 😉

      1. Jairzinho
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Disagree. I think all those midfielders should acre you well. All set.

        1. Jairzinho
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years

          score

    2. Grumpy Camel
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      why would you be worried about 2 MCI? I would like 3 for this week. Stoke aren't what they used to be defensively.

    3. Sebbo29
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      nice team, had something similar in mind but would need a WC for that 😉

    4. white lightning
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers boys. I might change the "c" to Jovetic but not sure tbh. Could even go Rooney but MU don't exactly inspire confidence.

  23. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
    • 14 Years

    Benching Hutton for the third time and playing Debuchy Clyne Terry. I honestly see another cleanie from Hutton b4 I sub him off for Dummet. Damn could the game get any crazier?

    1. BenDavies
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I'd play Hutton over Terry

    2. ChampionoftheWorld
      • 12 Years

      I have hutton on bench for the first 2 gw too!

      • Has Moderation Rights

      Fingers crossed TM. No particular rush though it seems given the price change situation.

    2. BenDavies

      Costa I heard could be fit for Everton, so can't wait for news on that yeah

  25. ChampionoftheWorld

    Who else still have 1FT and keeping for next week?

    1. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years

      Me at the moment, depending on injury news later.

    2. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Still got 2 FT at this moment 😛 I'll probably be using one to dispatch costa, but will surely save the other.

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      2 FTs atm.

      1. In Like Flynn.
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Kneejerked my first one. 🙁

        Also two used in Sportal.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 17 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          What did you do in Sportal? You can change them if I remember correctly. Prices change after this round. Dier is coming in for me. Should go up over 2 mil this week.

          1. In Like Flynn.
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            I got Dier and Jovetic, I thought he was in for a price hike. I have a couple who will drop and hopefully a few more to rise.

            I'm definitely more up to speed with it this year.

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 17 Years

              Think I'll be getting the same 2 this week.

                It seems to make sense for TV and points with luck. Good luck this week TM, I had a poor finish to last week.

                    Brilliant! Well done. Dropped to 622nd from 109th about as bad a Sunday and Monday as you could get.
                    Oh well still a vast improvement on last year. 🙂

    4. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah still have 1.. A bit annoyed I used 1 earlier in the week on Austin -> Naismith now, thought he'd rise more.. No doubt Austin will bag a few this weekend now!

    Krul Foster
    Clyne Caulker Williams Terry Bardsley
    Mata Sterling Ramsey Siggy Mutch
    Rooney Costa Naismith

    No FT left coz I had to do Bojan --> Naismith early.

    Should I WC/take a hit or wait? Actually my team is not bad but worried about no City/Spurs coverage, esp. for this GW

    Would appreciate advice

    1. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Maybe this week with no city could be bad, but not worth a wild card this early with your team at the moment in my oppinion.

      1. Sebbo29
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        thanks mate, also tend to keep the WC and no hit. Will prob be a low scoring one this time but prefer to have more options during intl break

  28. BenDavies
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    If my captaining of Weimann goes well I'll go mental, like break out into song. You guys will have to put up with that.

    somehow my Holtby drops everytime he reaches -100% on TFPL while other players with similar ownership don't.

    so wtf is going on with the price changes? is everyone okay with playing a game without knowing one of the most important rule of it?

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      We were never meant to know. I'm fine with it. Transfers in will eventually lead to price rise, transfers out vice versa. All you need to know

    2. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Confusion on prices reigns. Very frustrating all round really. Might as well draw changes out of a hat.
      I bet RVP don't drop though.
