55 minutes left to vote for the Scout Picks Community Champion
These are your two top contenders folks, please vote for one, whether it's the one I am championing or not:

Thank you,
HeelsOverHead
It against the rules to canvas for votes on the main board.
You should be downvoted, or disqualified, you have been spamming the board all day and have even changed your name, its supposed to be about us being represented by the best teamThat being the case people should vote for the other team (the bottom one)
😆
I'm not even entered. Stop making up nonsense.
And while you're at it, go ahead and report me for being nice, and trying to promote someone that multiple mods have noted puts in a solid effort every week and that they hope wins sometime.
My name is HeelsOverHead and I barely know Frank Black except for his excellent posts for the Community Challenge.
Is all that clear enough for you?
I voted for Frank's team. It is pretty good.
I thought the campaigning would've stopped with it being on a separate thread - shame.
Jonty suggested that mild campaigning was acceptable. Thank you for your concern.
Then Jonty was wrong.
No he wasn't. You and your fellow moaners and whingers are a pain in the arse.
And you can be the same Doosra.
Well, at least I am always positive.
Unless you don't agree with something that is.
- You and your fellow moaners and whingers are a pain in the arse.
- Well, at least I am always positive.
😉I am - I am fed up with all this negativity, so I am saying something about it.
And it is always the usual bloody suspects who are at it.
Try and contribute something, instead of always being a taker.
I read that as "try and circumcise something"...
😆
You are not doing "mild" campaigning at all tho - its a full fledged campaign, and if more people start doing it, its gonna be unbearable on these boards during the voting period.
Why don't you join in?
Because it would become like RMTs in preseason and we got rid of those for a reason.
We did not get rid of them ... 😕
RMTs got directed to their own thread - which made sense because of the spam.
you've made repeated references to it today - arguably more than 'mild campaigning'
Really, have I commented on every page?
Pretty sure I've tried to go at least two pages between comments, except at the very end.
I was trying to communicate with people who were new on the board, and assumed other people had lives to attend to and might no be here for hours; while on the other hand I'm at home tending to my sick two year old.I don't mean to have a go at you personally. My preference would be the thread is established and people post their teams and it stays like that, with no reference to it from any poster at all. Hopefully then everyone would be on an even field.
Sorry to hear you have a sick boy.No worries.
Sorry to be ornery and muck up your enjoyment of the site.
Theres a separate thread now? Where is that?
My team was soo good, I didn't even get 1 vote. I had all the big hitters and I could've changed the fringe players like Terry and Eriksen and Mannone
Mannone
Chambers Terry S.Taylor
Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Downing
Aguero Welbeck CostaPeople's names should be removed from teams so people vote for the teams instead of names, honestly. It is why I am campaigning for someone who puts forth significant effort each week, not someone I know or who is popular.
To be fair, I have never heard of or seen the guy who is currently in the lead.
Exactly.
Although I know him, in the sense that he has been on for a while.Please try to keep all discussion about the vote to this article and avoid spam canvassing, as it could prove counterproductive to your chances.
I’ll leave this vote for 24 hours and come back at 10am tomorrow (Tuesday) to find out who is the community’s choice. Any attempts to disrupt the voting process may lead to the team involved being removed at our discretion.Aw, stop whining, Triggerlips. I expect more of you.
Why? I always whinge, you should know that by now 🙂
No, actually, you don't.
You're sparking half of the discussion mate.
Brilliant 😆
Does someone actually like this new scout picks system??
Said yesterday that they should bring old system back - my comment was removed 😯Yes, I and many others like it.
And the old system was not only deeply flawed, but had become discredited.
This Season, things are much better.Okay then it's a good thing.
And if conversation is mostly under own topic, it doesn't bother me.
And if it happened to bother me...so what 🙂
Thanks Doosra...we think so too. All this system is doing is laying out the mechanics of the picks in public and also including the community in that, all with a bit of competition and the chance to win a prize.
The old system had us all coming up with different teams and many compromises were made. This system creates a picks from four people's line ups that means that the community champion is part of that process.
As a result I think this has been one of the most successful season's yet for the picks - pretty much every week the picks get way above the average. In gwk 8 our picks had all the big players that scored well.
It also showed those that take part just how tough it can be to come up with the picks. Alot of research, number crunching and form analysing goes on using the members tables, RMT etc....in each of our explanations we try and flag up where we get that information from to give a good reason for our choices.
I think if anyone has any genuine issues with the scout picks just email me in future and let those that are enjoying the competition to do so.
Its not fair on the other competitors who abide by the rules. Also the fact rodelagerbomb hasnt heard of a poster is neither here nor there, its supposed to be about voting for the best team
it has never been about voting for the best team
however, it has been about encouraging community as opposed to ego stroking preening
All posts under Jontys were.
new system doesn't keep all entries on one page, because they're not replies... a bit quirky
if it is in a separate article, there should be a way to block us from seeing the names of the posters in the article so it is a blind vote
some people just want their horse to win, and I don't mean meSeeing the leader is on Page 2, it doesn't seem an issue.
leader is on page 1
Seeing 2nd is on Page 2, it seems Page 1 isn't much help to the other 29. 😉
All comments were removed from that thread and replies locked down as people were starting to post their teams there instead of the article.
Thanks for clarification.

Some canvassing is fine...but if it becomes spam then it is not only counterproductive to the person the poster is championing but also can annoy other posters.
"55 minutes left ...
These are your two top contenders folks, please vote for one, whether it's the one I am championing or *not*"
(asterisks added)You saiid that already spam boy
Why would it be spam to encourage people to vote for one of the top two vote-getters with less than an hour to go in the voting?
Changing your name to vote frank black, followed by endless hours of posting has to constitute spam
My posting on here is now spam? Okay. No more comments from me then.
just ignore him
If Fabregas continues this run he will end up with 30 assists. 1 goal 8 assists in 9 games
He plateaues in the latter half of the season, generally.
I plan to hold him until the January WC and offload before the blanks come in.I will take that into consideration, I was thinking of getting rid around now
I'd get the figures but frankly I haven't the time right now. I seem to remember Sarj or somebody posting his goals and assists before Jan and after and they always dropped off, sometimes he would get 70%+ in the first half of the season.
Doesn't he have a history of injury problems in the EPL when it gets colder?
I seem to remember sometime like that, yes.
Not that this a 'he's bound to get injured' post. More that it could explain the plateau he's had in the past.
Indeed, I seem to remember injuries and the weather playing a part.
Nevertheless, he performed worse in the second half of every season.
Thanks, interesting 😉
Well, if Sakho continues his run, he will score 30 goals. Doesn't work like that.
That would be something! 😀
IIRC my pre-season prediction was 5 goals 25 assists so on target
As of now, I'm scared enough of Agüero to take a hit and bring him in. Even against Man United, he could just go roadrunnerstyle and bag a brace. I should have sold Costa last week to bring him in, stubborn as always...
Depending on Costa news, I might do:
A) Costa -> Agüero and Bego -> Jakupovic for -4
B) Welbz -> Agüero and Sterling/Silva -> 4.4m for -4
C) Wait another week to bring the speedster in for free
Also have Pelle, but Arsenal is less on form (yes I know, they have Burnley).
Anyone who saw Spurs vs Newcastle, how was Newcastle's team formation changed when Haidara(since Dummett was also on pitch) was introduced for Ayoze after 80mins?
Well, with keeping Costa looking more likely, I've to look at a different way at my team. 2 FTs and I'm all the more confused.
Team is somewhat like, for next week,
Begovic,
Moreno, van Aanholt, Clyne,
Tadic, Sterling, Sigurdsson, ADM,
Costa, Aguero (c), Welbeck.
(Hamer, Davis, Coloccini, Hutton)
* Now, now, I don't want to sell Tadic, Welbeck and Sterling for another week. I want Sanchéz, but that would mean to lose ADM. I want to sell Sigurdsson, nobody in that range. And err, Baines is not an option with my 0.1 in bank.
Some light on this, please? Cheers. 😉
Adm > sanchez done for me
I'm ignoring Baines. I know, idiotic, but the ship has sailed. I'd just look at one FTS, the same move I, doing, which is:
• PVA > ChambersI would actually play van Aanholt this week, and as for Chambers, our fixtures after Burnley are tricky enough.
PvA should be a priority..rest can play another week
Well, he got me clean sheets both the times I played him last. So there's my soft spot. 😉
He got me minus fecking two.
Van/Moreno--> chambers looks ideal transfer IMO. Depending if you want to keep Moreno for Pool's fixtures.
I'd want Sanchez and Baines, but difficult to get both. Perhaps ADM to Sanchez and Siggy to ?
Well, Downing/Chadli at best. Convinced by neither.
Chadli is a better enabler than I expected you could get - I'd go for him. Downing also a decent option fixture wise
Yeah, but Chadli's drop in output has been alarming.
Also, Downing's returns are just aren't good enough. Sakho, Valencia and even Amalfitano are doing better. Not enough for a fourth mid spot.It is alarming - and it would be a risk. Worth paying for getting Sanchez in this gw? Only you can decide that.. 🙂
ADM out for Sanchez looks good, how much how you got left for a Siggy replacement?
i like the ADM > Sanchez move
0.1 in bank, so 6.7 there.
Barkley, Chadli and Downing the only obvious options
Anyone who does ADM to Sanchez will immediately want to go back next week.
Also, I'd expect ADM to outdo Sanchez when they meet at the Emirates.It is like the big haul potential.
There is that little feeling that Sanchéz/Hazard could explode this week.
Other than that, ADM has plum fixtures after this one, and they are improving, and he is at the heart of everything.On form, I think ADM has much chance of exploding, even in this game, as Hazard does against QPR. I have both, without Sanchez, so it's tricky.
You have almost convinced me to stick with ADM here.
What's your midfield?ADM, Hazard, Sigurdsson, Boyd and....a compromise 😮
Last Man Standing safety score is at most 31.
Might drop to 29/30 depending on hits taken.How many still in?
About 1000 once this week is over.
Phew
🙂
That's me out
🙁
My closest week so far, thanks for setting it so low TM.
Thanks the 50+ who made it that low.
Just browsing through the QPR forums and this kid Yun voted the player of the match 2 games in a row now but Harry and the fans.. Looks a real talent. Feel like ignoring my Caulker post earlier and swapping Caulker to Yun as i got no other priorities and need to free up cash
Who are players that Must have in ur Team this Season and for next GWS ?
Baines and Aguero only
Aguero and a Soton defender like Bertrand
Guys any ideas from this lot. Thanks
Krul
Baines Clyne Hutton (PVA, Bellerin)
Hazard Sterling Tadic Sigurdsson
Aguero Welbeck Pelle
2.7 ITB
don’t bench Bellerin
Tadic to Sanchez or otherwise upgrade Bellerin to Coleman
Thanks MOOKIE N SEBBO29
Sanchez, Welbeck and Downing IN
Sterling, Pelle and Siggy OUT
Worth an 8 point hit?An 8 point hit involving Pelle out? Are you mad?
+1
Madness. Sterling to Sanchez if any but would not ditch Pelle & Siggy atm
No way.
I wouldn't
Not in a Million years
Lord no
HVT? Would you consider keepers for 5.0?
If not, Foster & Guzan?Also, you have the wrong Chelski defender, and you need Chambers urgently.
HVT?
Thanks Doosra, I'd love Forster long term, and Terry is a placeholder for Chambers but it seems crazy to make that transfer this week, I can't see Qpr getting past the half way line tho it may be a swing of .2 in value
Not Forster - Foster.
Saints places too valuable for a goalkeeper.Shirley keep Terry one more week ?
Ideally :
Terry > Baines, Hutton > Chambers,
Sterling > Tadic, Pelle > Costa.
Exact cash -8 a mini Wc!
In my draft-style league using FPL points system, been offered Chadli for my Mo Diame/Willian.. who is best out of the 3 in terms of season-long points? Thanks 🙂
don't sell Diame
Is Yun nailed on now? Could be a bargain
I think Redknapp still undecided about certain players in his team as starters, so monitor him
Arry seems to have seen the light as per Yun,who was good enough for the World Cup but not our left back berth,that being said next two fixtures are very tough and I would not consider Yun as a fantasy option until fixtures improve.
No one at QPR is nailed on. It will be results driven.
Hazard lovers... What am I missing? Over the last 4 gw he's created only 3 chances (Lots of midfielders have created more), and had 2 attempts on target (lots of midfielders have had more). Is this one of those 'visual vs stats' situations? Or something more obvious?
The stats are terrible but what if he gets a game which he gets stats. If he has game with 5 attempts he will explode
so you’re saying he’s due?
I guess so... Just so hard to predict when that will be. I know everyone's saying he's streaky, but I felt he was better last season than he's been over he last few weeks,
i wonder about this myself
Slightly a visual thing I feel, could easily have at least 2 more goals and would then be right up there. I'm still holding strong
i think many are looking at this QPR fixture. He could really score big, especially if Costa is out, plus Fabz is on 4 YC so ban is imminent
Ok... So a formation change and gap to be filled... Can buy that. Still a bit too punty for me though
Hmm... Not really formation change... Position change?
If you own Hazard , make your own decision . No point trying to discuss , I waited till this week n took mine.
Ok, I respect that, just looking for the rationale
The worry is, other Chelski midfielders, mainly Fábregas, are cannibalising his points ...
Yeah, I have fab, and if oscar was nailed I'd pick him over hazard based on recent form
Fab , Oscar and Costa have been hogging all the points mainly. 10m is big price to pay for an odd 6/7 points coupled with lot of 2/3 pointers.
He is playing well. Most people had him as their pick for top scoring player of the season before it began. Even when he's in poor fantasy form he's close to keeping pace with most of the big hitters.
But for me the beauty is in his relentlessness. He will play almost every week and he will score a lot. It's a position I don't have to worry about - if in three weeks he's still not done much, we'll re-address.
Hello guys, would you save a FT?
Begovic
Chester, Baines, Bertrand
Siggy, Cesc, Tadic, Eriksen
Pelle, Costa, Aguero
Subs: Gilks, Naylor, Cattermole, Rio --- 1 FT, 0.1 ITB
A) Save FT
B) Naylor -> ChambersNaylor to Chambers looks sensible to get some ARS coverage
B and bench Chester
Yep, I'll bench Chester if I do B. Cheers.
Anyone manage to do worse that 24?
Aguero captain fail, Ivan sent off, Costa didn't play, Welbeck, Di Maria, Sterling, Downing blanked .. a total of 3 points from Guzan, Wisdom and Duff...
I hate this gameWow unlucky man makes my 34 seem awesome 🙁
I have 6 of those players. Stay strong, another week is just around the corner
You're lucky it happened in a low scoring week. How much did you really lose, 15 points? That's nothing really
Currently 8k, not taken a hit all season and feeling a little saucy. Opinions on any of these transfer?
Krul
Baines Clyne PvA
ADM Sterling Mane Siggy
Aguero Pelle Welbeck
A) Siggy > Hazard (FT)
B) Sterling, ADM > Hazard, Sanchez (-4)
C) Siggy, Welbeck, ADM > Hazard, Sanchez, Berahino (-8)Not interested in Costa?
B or C for me.If Costa drops once more I can do Welbeck to Costa FT. Will wait on news I guess.
It does worry me not owning Sanchez vs BUR.I know what you mean.
No Chelsea cover seems an issue to me. ADM should be good after this week so buying back may be expensive.
It could backfire massively, but B looks good.
If you have the funds I'd go Siggy --> Hazard and save the points
B could also work but ADM is worth keeping tbf.
Either way you need some Chelsea coverI will most likely go A depending on Costa news as I agree, ADM is worth saving.
As I am saying to everyone, selling ADM for a hit is madness IMO. If you really want Sanchez, I'd suggest getting him in for Sterling, but not sure the money can be made elsewhere.
I agree with you about ADM. I think Sanchez's form and fixtures are scaring people into ruining their teams.
I agree he could score big against Burnley but I am not convinced. The 2 goals he scored against Sunderland were only due to those 2 horrible blunders. Apart from that he looked not too dangerous, along with the rest of the Arsenal team. Whereas ADM is involved in basically each and every ManU attack, plus he is on FK and corners. ADM over Sanchez for me every day
A for me, would be reluctant getting ADM out coz I would want him back after the derby anyway
To keep ADM there is also this option for a 12pt hit, which seems like madness:
Sterling, Siggy, Welbeck, Taylor > Sanchez, Hazard, Berahino, Yun (12pt) 😆Woweee - the pinnacle of insanity 😀
You're right, maybe a 16pt hit is what I need instead.
B.
A) ADM --> Sanchez
Or
B) Sterling --> Sanchez
Or
C) Keep ADM & Sterling and a FTIf B is for free, it is an absolute no brainer.
This.
this, otherwise C
Agreed
C
Beasy
B
Hhmmmm.....not exactly definitive. Football is all about the opinions though.
Sterling --> Sanchez is very tempting, and it is for free. How likely is it Sterling will play well at Newcastle??Actually I just checked. I could do Sterling --> Sanchez on Saturday, but now I can't!
Why has Sterling gone down!? Curses!!!!
A
man
Ronaldo to win the Ballon D'Or!
I think Welbeck is going to be the highest scoring forward this weekend.
Do I or any of you have the balls to captain him though?
Does anyone have the brain to captain him...
don‘t you think he’s a good option? if not why?
He misses too many chances. For example Aguero or Pelle gets as many or more chances than Welbeck, and they are much better at actually scoring, so I'd choose one of them for captain
i might
I captained him one week..got me just a goal...will see it's between Him and Hazard atm
I would love this to be the case. But, the signs aren't good.
I'm struggling not to sell him. 😆
No. Aguero set to repay for blanking last week.
over Kun or Hazard? Never, especially not with last week's performance, looked pretty flat against Sunderland
This Costa thing is driving me mad over the last couple of weeks it feels like I've lost as many points as I've gained from holding on to him.
It is killing all of us. I got rid early doors. Still don't know whether I will benefit, apart from TV.
dw u aint alone
as long those on your league are also not making any move, is fineIndeed, I sold him last night, worst case he plays against QPR and scores 10-15 points, still feels better to not have to think about him
I'd had enough last week, got rid.
You may as well get Aguero, Pelle and one of the cheap on form forwards, for all the good that keeping Costa will do.
More than anything I'm just bored of the mind games....
Captain?
A) Costa
B) Sanchez
C) Aguero
D) Di MariaA and B as VC
C
Might just go Cesc(c).
Well, should net you some points.
Just wonder if he might be rested due to his YC position.
Kun as backup.
San(c)hez for me.
Looks like I might hide behind the couch for the Arsenal fixture.
😥
If Costa isn't fit, I'll be doing the same.
We won't know though. According to reports on Saturday morning Costa was gonna be in squad. Look how that turned out.
Costa (C) Cesc (VC) 😉
My fear is a Costa no show and a Cesc rest to avoid 5th YC and miss of Liverpool game.
0pts
Or the Chelski game gets postponed. Never have C and VC from same team/game
Unless I do:
Costa/Sterling->Berahino/Sanchez -4
Not keen on hits though.
Nice Safe Call
Might be a nice differential considering everyone is on the Alexiz Express.
yeah...Costa, Sanchez, Hazard to be the most capped this week
I think that is the safest option.
Guzan (Foster)
Baines Bertrand Moore (Azpi Hutton)
Hazard Chadli ADM Siggy (Obertan)
Costa Aguero Naismith
1FT / 0.1 ITB
I need to find a way to upgrade Naismith, any suggestion? Should I wait next week and 2FT?
azpi to chambers
naismith to berahinois it worth a -4?
if you think you have 11 starting players for next week then save transfer.
i m also in same position looking to upgrade naismith....and finding ways to do that...i think i will do dyer to boyd and naismith to berahino
Apparently, Diafra Sakho is so desperate to play against Stoke, he is willing to play on pain killers.
Dedication.- we will get the results of his scans this afternoon, probably.
Link?
Pls play and rest all he want during the internationalssssssTwitter speculation, can't find a reliable source.
He MAY be OK for Villa ...
http://www.claretandhugh.info/sakho-refuses-to-give-up-on-stoke/thx bro for the link...
Should be the standard response tbh. Too much preciousness in this game
Part of the issue is that the pain killers can be pretty heavy duty and not something you want players taking frequently.
Yeah but that's up to the club doctors. If I were able to play footy at this level I'd do anything to be on the pitch
But that is the big issue, a club doctor has to look at if it is ethical to put a young lad on really heavy drugs when they know a week's rest will fix him up. Can be a dicey situation. I agree, I'd be the same from a player perspective.
But playing against Stoke at home is not an easy task..and with Stoke being physical..his injury might worsen...
He won't play Stoke. Rest assured.
Carlton Cole will probably start.
Rest assured 😀
*Medication
Hazard is the only player apart from Soton to have recorded 5 CS's...strange but true...
Chelski conceding late has become habit ...
Must be...obviously Mou's idea of shoring up defence for the closing minutes ain't all it's cracked up to be...
Hazard is also the top scoring CHE midfielder apart from Fabregas.
All well?
Coming from the angle of Form v Fixtures, surely it's far wiser to play Clyne over Wisdom or Moore?
Nice angle. Acute one too.
You're acute one 😉
Why you gotta be so obtuse with your replies??? Please stop going off on a tangent and give me a sin that Clyne is the correct player to pick!!! It's not Trigonometry ffs...
Clyne will score a 30 yard screamer. Play him.
There's no cos to be upset, I can't shield your ears with cotan forever!
And play Clyne.
This was the nerdiest pun-off I've been involved in for a while!
Oh, yes. And ... it's Hull! So, both really ... 😀
Would really like to save a FT to the next GW. Is this team decent enough for the weekend?
Krul
Wilson, Baines, Clyne
Fabregas, Di Maria, Sterling, Siggy
Aguero (C), Pelle, Welbeck
(Subs: McCarthy, Boyd, N. Taylor, Hutton)
1FT
1.2 ITBSave. You know its more then a decent enough 🙂 .
Will Naismith start this GW in your opinion?
He might do following a poor performance from Lukaku.
