With less than four weeks left until the season gets underway, the Sky Sports Fantasy Football game for 2015/16 finally opened its doors earlier today.

Whilst Fantasy managers start to build their opening squads, reigning champion Geoff Pryor will be hoping to retain his crown after earning a cool £30,000 for finishing first last season – if you missed our interview with Geoff, click here for the lowdown on his title-winning campaign.

As many of you will know, the Sky Sports game is one that we’ve covered in the past, with our Members area including the relevant bonus point recipients across the positions.

After winning the Best League for each of the last three years, we’re looking forward to defending our title once again. The winner of last season’s Scout League picked up £1,000 for their achievements and we’re hoping to offer prizes for whoever finishes at the summit once again.

We’ll be re-starting our official league soon and will be rolling out a series of articles over the next couple of weeks, looking at the Player List and analysing the best tactical approaches.

Regular contributor d1sable is on board once more to roll out his regular Friday afternoon articles – he clinched yet another top 100 spot in 2015/16 and will be looking to heap the pressure on Geoff at the summit.

We’ve set up a new community article to exclusively deal with Sky Sports Fantasy teams. Those looking to get involved with the discussion should click this link.

    If Costa can remain fit throughout the season.. he's a suitable alternative to Aguero, no?
    And at £2m less..

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Nope

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      No one is a suitable alternative to Aguero. Aguero's stats blow every other player's out the water. But of course, his price reflects this.

    3. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Yes. I think he'll be better now he's settled.

    4. Boyd to Sven
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      The captaincy option means going without Aguero is too risky. If Aguero scores a hat-trick (or more) which he can basically do on any given week and large numbers have captained him your rank is going to plummet.

      Aguero - more bps, more assists, less cards.

        More eggs, less baskets.

    Hello everyone!

    I'm back from a summer break - I hope you're all well.

            No. It is the blasted anti-coagulent that I am taking.

            I am ordered off it for a few days.

                  A word of advice , when ure taking anti-coagulants , u should check ur PT/INR once everyweek.

        He has scored points for me before. I am the lucky recipient of BOTH of his league goals ... 😀

          🙂 I was there for 1 of them, 2-1 vs Reading. I wish you luck though I don't have much confidence

              Different manager, different times. 263 last year.
              That being said, I've always liked him and is probably in the first XI if Ollson is out GW1 and we don't sign anyone

              1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member

                Indeed.

    Not much love for Bacuna on here it seems.

    i know AVL def is shite, but isn't he on FK's and often OOP?

    1. Boyd to Sven
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      As aVilla fan I'd say steer well clear. He's not nailed on, we keep next to no clean sheets and for 5.0 there's much better options out there.

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Is he ahead of Hutton?

      1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        hey... sorry i missed it earlier.... what was with the Darmian and Shaw comparison?

        1. kalmoffit
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Both new and untried. Get Mertesacker and swap for Darmian only if he's scoring better than Mert.

      2. Boyd to Sven
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        No one knows. I imagine we'll sign another right back this summer and then there's Richards lurking as another option there.

  5. Evasivo
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    With all BPS changes I reckon cheap defence is the way forward this season, though good keepers essential.
    Can't remember why I chose Speroni & Butland but may end up changing it & doing same as last season: Panti/Mannone otherwise, what's your thoughts?

    Speroni Butland
    Morgan O'Shea Cedric Hutton Distin
    Fabs Hendo Walcott Silva Wanyama
    Deeney Benteke Aguero

    2. JÆKS â­
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      like the looks of it, although I would get Lukaku instead of Benteke if he leaves Villa.
      I'm going with Schmeichel/Panti + Hamer as gk though.

    3. Le Limpar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Trying to figure out how you've saved all that money in defence, only to have Troy Deeney up front and Hendo in the middle.

    Ivanovic 60% of the vote to be highest scoring defender. Is this a good reason to avoid?

      You are missing two defenders. I have 9 of those players so me likes 🙂

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers Champ!
        Thoughts on Cedric? Opinion on here seems divided. Some say attacking threat. Others say card magnet.

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Probably both then 🙂 certainly attacking and cheap route into saints defense. I'm sold

  9. JÆKS â­
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    I imagine I'm not the only one planning to play most of the games in a 3-5-2 rather than a 3-4-3?
    So many good options in the middfield this year!

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      The good mid fielders are more expensive than forwards this year.

      1. JÆKS â­
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Don't you have to go play with some lego or something?

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 16 Years

          Huh?

        2. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          You only get three forward slot and you are going to CHOOSE to limit yourself to just two? Smart

          1. JÆKS â­
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            No i will pick 3 forwards, but just prefer to play only 2 of them so I can play 5 middfielders instead of 4 because I believe there are more options in the middfield...

            1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
              • 16 Years
              10 years, 9 months ago

              Yeah i get the fact that you will pick three... you don't have much choice in that matter. But in my experience you should be playing three.

              Each to their own obviously. Best of luck

  10. Le Limpar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Decided it's too early to do a draft yet.

    In a window where Stoke think they can get Shaqiri, Payet goes to West Ham and Ayew to Swansea, Palace get Cabaye and Watford spend gazillions there's far too many fun moves going to happen over the next 4 weeks to give today's picks any shelf life or relevance at all.

    Schmeichel's my keeper in every fantasy game I'm playing.

    1. pompeyfan
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      not convinced now Ranieri is the manager

  13. TheDogTor
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Seeing as goalkeepers look likely to benefit this season from bps and Courtois is only 5.5 and last season his and Cechs combined scores totals to 159, surly this is a bit of a bargain? Considering most are spending 9.0 anyway on 2 4.5's.

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Is he ever required to make many saves? Why would he get baps?

      1. TheDogTor
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        But still 159 points, you can forget about rotating and getting your keeper choice right each week for 9.5, only 0.5 than most spend on 'hopefully getting the best pair nd choosing the right one every week'.

        1. EmreCan Hustle
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Its a good idea. But I had 2 of Costa, Hazard and Fab all through last season and one Chelsea defender. Chelsea defenders do score goals. But Courtois seems like the cheapest way into that's defense.

          1. TheDogTor
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            Very true, it is me probably justifying saving 1.5 and having a 5.5 defender instead of Ivanovic. there ends up being so many arguments for and against every decision

            1. EmreCan Hustle
              • 13 Years
              10 years, 9 months ago

              Depends on what you do with the cash in hand really. A smart upgrade and you might have a great differential in your hands.

    3. Le Limpar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      BPS for save points makes 4.5 guys attractive.

      Fabianski and Panty got better PPG than Courtois last season even without this shift in favour of saves

        I'm actually looking at Pantilimon + 4.0m GK and hoping he can keep up last seasons heroics

        1. Le Limpar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Hey Andy.
          I saw that suggested by someone. I just can't bring myself to have my one goalkeeper by the Sunderland goalkeeper! Unless they have some serious personnel changes.
          There is just something wrong at that club. Loads of really tired old defenders.. Cattermole just got a lengthy new contract didn't he! - and clearly a drinking culture there. I think they might get pummelled this season to be honest, with other more progressive clubs investing so much.

    I'm looking to add a VS page to my spreadsheet. If you haven't seen it here it is - http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2015/07/10/new-players-analysis/

    So which players are you struggling between?

    For instance, Mata and Yaya Toure.

    I'll them add them to the spreadsheet so that you can compare their bang for buck!

      Bang for buck... I do like that phrase.

    Haven't seen too many Fuchs in RMTs
    Is he not nailed ? 😉

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      He's 5m, maybe too expensive for Leicester defender?

    2. Get up ya bum

      I got him

    5. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
      • 11 Years

      5m for a Leicester defender when they have Schlupp and Konchesky competing for the position, not for me.

    Krul, Elliot
    Azpi, Darmian, Bassong, Huth, Richards
    Hazard, Mane, Cabaye, Schneiderlin, Albrighton
    Kun, Rooney, Sakho

    Any feedback welcome. New player

    1. t3mme
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Looks quite good, but I'd change GKs and Schneiderlin/Albrighton pair.

  19. t3mme
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Guys, what's better, squad with or without Rooney?

    A) Current team:
    Boruc - Myhill
    Azpi - O' Shea - Koscielny* - Morgan - Cedric
    Hazard - Ramsey - Mata* - Hendo - Wanyama
    Aguero - Sakho* - Wilson

    B) Squad with Roo:
    Boruc - Myhill
    Azpi - O' Shea - Holebas* - Morgan - Cedric
    Hazard - Ramsey - Ritchie* - Hendo - Wanyama
    Aguero - Rooney* - Wilson

    1. Boris Bodega
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      A - Utd are about to buy Berbatov for £38m.....limits Rooney's potential.

      1. pompeyfan
        • 16 Years

        what year is this?!

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years

          I read it in the Metro, it must be true!

    2. Jay_
        10 years, 9 months ago

        B looks real strong, maybe change Wilson to Deeney to avoid BOU overkill

    3. foley_fd
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Can I be first to say that the template team (based on RMTs) looks horrific?

      1. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        what would you say the template team is?

        1. foley_fd
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Based on the post from the previous page:

          Schedmeichel Hamer
          Azpilicueta Morgan Cedric O’Shea Francis
          Hazard Wanyam Henderson Ritchie Depay
          Costa Rooney Sakho

          1. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            I don't have half of those

          2. Le Limpar
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            Yeah, that's rough.

            Pleased to report I only have 2 of these dogs in my team at the moment.

    4. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      to Ivan or not to Ivan?

      1. Fplnooob
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Ivan to know this as well

        1. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          currently not as it allows me to have another top 4 defender.

      2. Kip
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        i'm even considering ivan(c) 😉

    5. Ksimparomenos
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      if to get hazard who would u sacrifice? or kust go without hazard?

      azpi. mertesacker, 3x4,5

      fabregas, ramsey, chadli, henderson, 4.5

      kun, rooney, sakho

      1. Fplnooob
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        nobody is actually going to go 'without' hazard

    6. jam sandwich
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Be brutally honest, how does this sound for a back line?

      Courtois - Hennessey
      (cheapest Chelsea defensive asset & low ownership 4.0 who may even take Speroni's place)

      Mertesacker - Williams - Morgan - O'Shea - Coloccini
      (LEI/SWA and SUN/NEW have perfect H/A rotation the whole season)

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Not bad. In fact, I might just steal a page from your book (already have 2.5 of your back line anyways, with Coates instead of O'Shea). Just keep in mind that Morgan is a risk to start the season because of Gold Cup.

      2. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Looks good. Too reliant on baps perhaps. None of these guys are known for scoring.

    7. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      With Schweini rated a budget-friendly 7.0, what are your thoughts on his prospects as an alternative to the likes of Siggy/Aiew/Hendo?

      1. Fplnooob
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        he is not an fpl type player..might aswell stick matic in your team aswell

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Cheers, was looking for this kind of response.

      2. LFC466
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        he'll almost certainly be playing in a role too defensive to amass decent points

        henderson is the best 7M

        1. Boyd to Sven
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Milner*

          1. Fplnooob
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            herrera

        2. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Yep, I've got Hendo already.

      3. t3mme
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        He can be alternative to Matic/Schneiderlin/Coquelin and the others, not the attacking ones.

    8. Kip
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Looking for 3th & 4th mid. Which 2 would you pick out of these 3?

      Hendo
      Cabaye
      Ritchie

      1. Boyd to Sven
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Hendo and Cabaye.

        1. Dr Dream
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Those two are perfect for a dead team challenge...but....Hendo and Ritchie to start.

      2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Henderson and Ritchie.

      3. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Cabaye and Ritchie.

      4. Doolittle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Henderson and Ritchie to start, Palace have a very tough opening.

      5. vova
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        hendo and ritchie

    9. internal error

      Why would Valencia start ahead of Darmian. Makes no sense

      1. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        he won't

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

          Some here think he might.

          1. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            wonder why

      2. JK - Cønt â­
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        He won't. LvG had no faith in Rafa hence Valencia

        Tony will still get games at rb but I'd be amazed if he was 1st choice

    10. Bøwstring The Carp
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Thoughts on my team?

      http://i.imgur.com/ekOif23.png

      Considering a few changes based on preseason

      1) GK rotation might change to Ruddy/ Butland.
      2) Mata might become Depay.
      3) Wilson might become Deeney.

      1. Fplnooob
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        i lol'd at sterling (VC). can't take it seriously sorry

        1. Bøwstring The Carp
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Swapped Silva to Sterling, and haven't been bothered to change it. Likewise with Aguero 😛

    11. Bøwstring The Carp
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Liverpool heavily focused on the overlapping RB, who is currently Joe Gomez

      Looks like Clyne could be in for a massive haul this year

      1. Lawrø
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        I'm more interested in Moreno, but Clyne could be good too

      2. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Diamond formation needs all the width to come from the fullbacks.

    12. JK - Cønt â­
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Fenderbache confirm the signing of Robin van Persie

      1. Costa in Wengerland
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Atlast :p

    13. Every Dog Has Its Day

      Are YOU staying away from Leicester defenders?

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        No

        1. Every Dog Has Its Day
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Thinking about rotating Williams and Huth who are perfect for 38 games, would you do that?

          1. Bubz
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            Personally I wouldn't want to spend 5.0 on a Swansea defender

            1. Costa in Wengerland
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 9 months ago

              Well, you would be horribly mistaken, Bubz.

                10 years, 9 months ago

                I have had nothing but bad experiences owning Swansea defenders. And their opening fixtures aren't great imo.

      2. Boyd to Sven
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Quite the opposite, I'm doubling up.

      3. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
        • 11 Years

        yes, will wait and see

      4. JK - Cønt â­
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        no clue

        bar Ivan defence is a total mystery to me

        got no idea which route I'll go

      5. Costa in Wengerland
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Nope , so many good options and attaking potentials , Huth , Morgan , Schlupp

      6. t3mme
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        I'm considering this

      7. Leeroy Jenkyns

        Fuchs no
