      How much does it take into account set pieces and pens in each independent GW score prediction?

        Good question. A basic algorithm is used to give a starting point for goal-scoring rates for different players (using historical stats). The Scouts are then able to tweak these rates in light of new set-piece information (which wouldn't be reflected in historical data).

          Cheers, can I lower the influence of a factor in RMT? I personally would like to see less focus on Pens in mine for example.

        Thanks Jared. It's updated by Mark and co every week. They aim to update it every Friday evening (i.e. before a gameweek begins) a and well as Tuesday evening (or once a gameweek has finished). But they also try to update it at other times in the week if something really interesting has happened.

    RMT

    Fabianski - Hennessey
    Ivanovic - Koscielny - Cedric - Lescott - Steven Taylor
    Hazard - Walcott - Mane - Chadli - Bentaleb
    Rooney - Pelle - Wilson

    Going to do Rooney + Pelle --> Aguero + Deeney for the Watford game.

    I might have spent too much on defense but I feel like I need Ivan and Kos, and I really want a Southampton and West Brom defender. I plan to play 3 in the back so I (hopefully) won't need a fifth defender since Southampton and West Brom rotate well. I also don't really like the looks of any of the ~5.5m midfielders (prefer the 5.0 defenders more than Mahrez) which why I didn't go for 4.5 defenders.

      RMT Please !

      Schmeichel (Hennessey)

      Richards - Martin - Coates (Muniesa & Williams)

      Ritchie - Hazard(Vc) - Walcott(C) - Redmond (Chadl)

      Wilson - Pellè – Rooney

      5.5 million In the bank
      But (0.5m Hennessey to Speroni when fit)
      And 5m (Pellè to Agüero in Gw4)

      Trying a five way Rotation at the back this year. Best I could come up with and picked the best pair of GK's with a differential to the defence.
      (Gk) Lec/Cpa
      (Def) Sto/Nor - Sun/Swa - Sto/Swa - Nor/Ava - Ava/Swa
      (Mid) Nor/Bou

      Hennessey or McCarthy while Speroni is out ?
      Who is the most nailed stoke central defender (4.5m) now that shawcross is injured?
      I picked Muniesa for the moment !
      Who is more nailed ? O’Shea, Coates or Kaboul ?
      Martin over Bassong at the moment.
      Might switch in Ozil if Walcott doesn’t deliver
      I have picked Redmond over Johnson as he is a risk as he played left back recently and with the arrival of Brady! What do ye think ?
      Wilson to Deeney When his fixtures improve.
      I was also thinking maybe Wilson to Kane until Agüero Returns ? Since I have 5.5m ITB.

      Any Suggestions Welcome ! Thank you

          Plan to transfer him in. 5.5 in the bank does just as little for your team as Aguero sitting on your bench. OR... You could put him in from the start. Apparently he's in with a shout.

        @cantona's demons

        palace have a nasty run of fixtures and we don't really know which of their keepers will start and whether or not speroni will get back in (unless I'm out of date)...I think you'd be better with the 2 leicester keepers...they have a long run of good fixtures

        despite the fixtures I don't fancy villa for clean sheets but you could try sinclair instead of redmond for a few weeks (although I'm unsure how long he'll keep grealish out)...the cash you save lets you get cedric which is one heck of an upgrade

        Steven Taylor isn't nailed on. Just needed a 4.0 defender that I bench. Bentaleb is also going to be a bench warmer but he starts and gets 2-3 points a game. Just using some cheaper players due to the tight budget.

      if you want my opinion that's a strong team to start with but a forward line of Aguero-Deeney-Wilson doesn't impress me...the leading teams are the safe bets for lots of goals...I like 7 strong attackers if possible and you're starting with 6 and planning on reducing this to 5

      but on the plus side you have a stellar defence and you might well be tempted to play 4 at the back some weeks

      so I think if you're spending that much in defence you'll be better choosing only one of aguero, hazard and sanchez

      @ the wayfarer

      picking a bournemouth defender is a real high-risk strategy especially with a non-playing defender in your backline

      I call your good fixtures and possible francis assists and raise you your eccentric keeper, inexperienced defence and attacking philosophy

        I'm liking Bournemouth's early fixtures though, this is only an 8 week team really. GK-wise, Ruddy has decent fixtures in this period and will collect quite a few save points. Chelsea, Arsenal and Southampton in defence are good bets I reckon.

        Cheers for the opinions.

    Hey guys, new around these parts, a casual glance would be a great help, RMT please:

    Ruddy---Rudd (Bottled the rotation)

    Koscielny---Cedric---Coates---Francis---Huth (3 way rotation)

    Fabregas---Sterling---Ozil---Mane---Ritchie (Sakho rotation - 343 to 352)

    Rooney(C)---Kane---Sakho (Ritchie rotation)

    0.0 ITB

    Notes:
    Is no Chelsea defence an issue considering poorish fixtures?
    Doing Ritchie/Sakho rotation - money on the bench i know, but fancy the punt
    I feel that Walcott is a transfer waiting to happen and really believe this will be Ozil's big season
    Aimed to spread money to have lots of flexibility and thus don't want any lower limit players
    Toying with Mahrez/Vardy inclusion, haven't been convinced beyond my SR rotation plan, thoughts?

    Random considerations:
    Option: A) Francis, Mane, Kane vs B) Azpilicueta, Chadli, Pelle (+ 1M)

    Aguero option for GW1:
    Kane > Aguero, Sakho > Wilson, Sterling > Chadli, Ritchie > Mahrez

    Thanks and grim about the long post.

      Personally, I find that Chelsea are fixture-proof (definitely no bias) so I feel like a Chelsea defender is a safe option. I'm not a fan of the Ritchie/Sahko rotation, I feel like you do better with a cheaper forward. Wilson, Deeney and Defoe look like good options. Don't know how I feel about Kane. I don't think he'll produce as much and Benteke may be a better option. Overall though, I like the team.

        In order:

        1. Yes, Ritchie is better because he's on set pieces and because his team appears to run through him specifically in a way that it does not for Sinclair.

        2. Not necessarily, especially if you're not counting on them on a weekly basis. Just be prepared to pull the rip chord if the go off the boil early on.

        3. The only thing that worries me is the neither Hennessey nor Myhill are the starting goalkeeper for their respective teams. Both are deputizing for injured players that should be back in the next month or two. I'd hate to see you spend 2 transfers (or more, depending upon price fluctuations) to fix your 'keepers.

      I like it, probably about an 8/10.

      Only worries...

      1. Richards may not be the best option in that Villa backline.
      2. Fletcher may not start every game? Westwood is safer I think.
      3. Not huge on Cazorla, heavy emphasis on set-pieces for output, if you could find the £0.5m for Walcott that would improve it.

        1. Was under the impression as he's captain I'll be guaranteed some points and I doubt he'll play that often in my starting 11.
        2. Once again, very rarely going to play but I will take that into consideration.
        3. Not too sure where that 0.5 could come from and I also feel that if Walcott doesn't hit the ground running it'll be a transfer out where as Cazorla is a more secure pick.

          1. Every considered a Sunderland or Leicester defender instead? A better defence and probably better fixtures to.

            1. Didn't look much into defence but I think you've a point. Wasn't too sure on the Sunderland defence but it looks like I might pick Coates over Richards. Plus Richards will more than likely get injured at some stage.

            3. I'll gamble later on in the season but prefer to stay safe in the early weeks.

      Looks good. I think it is difficult to fit Kun in, I have a plan to get him, but too many factors could change my mind on transfers I want to make. I would say have a rough idea of who you want to take out, but be flexible and transfer out players off form for a potential bargain.

      I would be very worried with no Chelsea players at all.
      I'd want atleast one of a defender, Fabregas or Hazard. Try to look for a way to get one in.

      Walcott/Depay -> Fabregas/Ozil?

          Okay.
          Otherwise, i'd prefer Huth over Morgan, and maybe downgrade Lukaku to Sakho or Deeney because you already have spent a lot of money on forwards. Then you could look to get in a Chelsea defender.

            Lukaku to Sakho GW2 then re-evaluate I reckon. I think Chelsea GW1 fixture masks what is a poor month or two for them fixture-wise, I can see a lot of Chelsea investors disappointed at their slow start.

      Nice team. Just have the same thoughts as Dynamic.
      Chelsea cover looks to be key, i'd maybe suggest get Sakho/Vary in from the start instead of Lukaku and upgrade one of the defenders to Azpilicueta.

      Not sure about Fábregas' goal threat when players like Mané and Memphis offer a lot more in that aspect and come a lot cheaper. It seems as though he's in there for the sake of cover rather than anything else.

      Having Aguero from the start may be a risk, but hey, he's Aguero he may score from the bench. I wouldn't worry about Benteke or Kane as you forwards are great already. I'm going with Hazard since I'm to scared to go without him. I think Hendo is the better choice than Milner.

      Looks good to go.

      Not many faults, wouldn't be too sure on double Chelsea midfield though. I'd maybe downgrade Fab to maybe Chadli who has some great fixtures and is nailed in an attacking Spurs side. As a result I'd maybe upgrade Deeney to Sakho and use the remaining £1.0 for any future transfers.

      Good luck!

      Mentioned it in another rating above, but Myhill and Hennessey won't start for their teams for the whole season. Also, you have Targett, who is a short-term option. I'd consider changing at least two of those three, otherwise you'll be spending transfers to fix your budget players.

    0.5 in the bank.

    The 5-man midfield is back. I think Ritchie will be threatening enough with set-pieces to warrant a place even when Bournemouth's away. Sakho and Wilson will be my rotating forwards, and I can jump on Deeney or any of the other 5.5 forwards if they show some promise. My defense is lightweight, but they have a pretty decent rotation for the first 6-or-so weeks. At the moment, I do NOT intend to do major surgery for Aguero.
