The Fantasy Football Scout Leagues Round Up

With the third international break of the season upon us, we’re afforded time to assess the leader contenders in the Fantasy Football Scout leagues across in a variety of games. With leagues in Fantasy Premier League (FPL), Ultimate Fantasy Premier League, Sky Sports and the Fantasy iTeam (FiT) Champions League game, there’s plenty to catch up on.

Fantasy Premier League

Adam Stuckert sits atop the Scout League with a total of 758 points after the first 11 Gameweeks. Adam – who notched 72 points in the previous round of fixtures – had the likes of Tim Krul, Nathaniel Clyne, Leighton Baines, Alexis Sanchez, Sergio Aguero and captain Graziano Pelle to thank for steering him to number one in the overall standings.

Vasil Raykov is just seven points behind in second spot, or third overall. He also has the likes of Baines, Clyne, Sanchez, Pelle and Aguero on board, with Brad Guzan, Gylfi Sigurdsson, Nacer Chadli and Diego Costa amongst his starters as he racked up 89 points last time around despite, like Adam, handing the armband to Pelle. Intriguingly, Vasil is the only one of our top five to have played his wildcard at this stage.

In third spot sits Matthew Furlong, on the back of a 92-point Gameweek 11. His decision to captain Aguero paid off handsomely, with the usual suspects such as Baines, Clyne, Sanchez, Sigurdsson, Chadli and Costa all amongst the points last time around.

Matthew sits just one point ahead of both Petter Gullestad and Mariusz Fyrstenberg. Petter registered 79 points in Gameweek 11, with his decision to captain Aguero reaping rewards, whilst he also had the likes of Baines, Sigurdsson and Sanchez as part of his starting XI. Another one to hand the armband to Aguero, Mariusz delivered 82 points – he’ll be hoping his decision to retain United’s Angel di Maria will prove a differential amongst our top five.

Thanks to those five managers, we’re currently retaining our spot at the top of the League of Leagues. You can join our classic league using the code 11856-4526.

Hitesh Gulati is a new entry at number one in the Scout Members league, which sits fifth in the league of leagues. He sits fifth in the overall standings, despite deciding to ignore the consistent Leighton Baines to this point, with 749 points accrued. Peter Chesley earns second spot with a total of 731 points, just edging Matt Summers into third by a single point.

Ultimate Fantasy Premier League

Lawrence White is the leader of our UFPL Scout league, after a 99-point haul in Gameweek 11 took his total to 884 for the season – second overall. Joe Hanmer is in second spot with his total of 869 points placing him 13th in the world, whilst Geoff Shotter is 13 points further behind in third spot. To join our UFPL league, use the code 524-87.

Sky Sports Fantasy Football

Jason Callender leads the way in the Scout league with a total of 826 points – that’s enough for third place in the overall standings and earns him a 38-point lead over our second place manager, Ryan Hutton. Martin Smith takes third spot after Gameweek 13 of the Sky Sports offering, with a total of 782 points helping to 32nd spot overall. The winner of our Sky league, which is also top in the league of leagues, wins £1,000. To join up, the league name is FFScout and the code is 8009000.

Champions League

Our official Champions League game this season is the Fantasy iTeam (FiT) offering – a free, reliable and easy-to-use Fantasy football app. After four rounds of Matchdays, Daniel Lord heads the Scout League with 328 points, whilst Waleed Cherif (314 points) and Simon Gow, on 313 points, grab second and third respectively. There’s an iPad mini on offer to the winner – the league name is Fantasy Football Scout and the pin is 11155.

We’ve set up another league for those still following the official Champions League game. Simon Butt is the leader on 316 points – 28th overall – and is followed by sidharth91 and gkalaf on 315 and 313 points respectively.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

            *hearts skip a beat.

            The prices will affect me whether i can get Clyne -> Azpi next week or not.

            If I can't I can always downgrade Forster instead of getting Fabianski.

            Well I can get Naylor/Williams Courtois over Azpi Fabianski too since they're cheaper

                Me too.

                Azpi virtually having no assist potential and no baps is pretty much equal to Courtois.

      I have Sakho but I wish I'd bought Austin instead. Mainly because QPR have fewer attacking options ( none, actually ) and so he should be a guaranteed starter. Rangers also have three games in four at home over Christmas, which is a great advantage.

    Morning DZ.

    Thinking of shipping Mane out after the Villa match. But he was benched after the last international week(gw 8) in the 8-0 thrashing of Sunderland!! Do you think Long will start ahead of Mane this time? Stick or twist this week?

    Thanks.

      I think Long will start. Likely rested for the international friendly but maybe not seeing as Keane has left the squad. Perfect time for Koeman to give Long a chance and rest Mane though without hurting anyones feelings.

        Cheers. You maybe right. Although Mane was an expensive purchase and is the number 10. He maybe first choice ahead of Long every week, unless he's not match fit.

      I think Long will start and Mane will cameo again and Mane will have to do some thing special in the Cameo to cement the spot , I personally wouldn't bother with him and ship him now considering their fixtures , Chadli Siggy and Downing are all cert starters and would be free up a bit of cash

      You would keep Austin, sakho or downing for more than one game right? These are value players performing well for their price to free up money elsewhere and is be happy to recommend any of them on that basis. They won't score points every week and they may or may not get something out of this weekend

                I am actually enjoying it, I wish there was a human element to it. Like, three people just sit down and decide the price changes and at totally random times. so zero predictability.

            Thanks for the update. I tried following the accurate changes for couple of weeks. It seems like to me that FPL towers are not following one specific algorithm. The reason is, some days, both sites get every single one right, others, not even close !

              I haven't been keeping a close eye this week until yesterday, but at a guess maybe FPL towers has shifted the transfer limits again (we know they do this regularly to adjust for the number of active players) and there's just not been enough changes in the international break dead zone for them to get a proper handle on them.

              That may not explain Costa's change at 40-something though...

              Based on what you say I might have to scratch my comment above. The fallers are the area they've struggled with most this season so if overall they're now predicting more than they're missing then that's improvement.

          Downing, Sigurdsson? They may not be as flashy as Oscar but they are good value for money and nailed on for the rest of the year I reckon.

              Chadli is another option but unlike a lot of people here I think his run will be over soon. 6 goals off 8 shots is not sustainable.
