Scout Notes

Scout Scribbles – International Round Up

Eden Hazard scores one spot kick but misses another for Belgium. Kevin de Bruyne is also in the goals for Marc Wilmots’ side. Georginio Wijnaldum nets for Holland but Tim Krul is forced off with a knee injury, whilst Gylfi Sigurdsson scores as Iceland draw with Latvia.

De Bruyne Form Continues

Kevin De Bruyne scored an inch-perfect free-kick for Belgium in their Euro 2016 qualifying encounter against Andorra to continue his rich run of goalscoring form.

The Scout Says: Given that Sergio Aguero and David Silva may well be set for spells on the sidelines, while Yaya Toure is in a race to be fit for Manchester City’s home tie against Bournemouth next weekend, De Bruyne stands out as the prime source of Sky Blues coverage. The former Wolfsburg star has flourished since his switch to England’s top tier, racking up three goals and two assists in his last three starts. Looking at the past three Gameweeks, only Alexis Sanchez carded more shots on target (six) than De Bruyne (five), who also placed in the top 10 for key passes (eight). With match-ups against the Cherries, Norwich (home) and Aston Villa (away) over the next month, the stage is set for De Bruyne to sustain his laudable productivity.

Hazard’s Spot of Bother

Eden Hazard scored one penalty and missed another as Belgium romped to a 4-1 victory over Andorra. As well as the afore-mentioned De Bruyne the likes of Simon Mignolet, Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld all started for Wilmots’ side, whilst Nacer Chadli appeared off the bench as a late sub.

The Scout Says: Hazard has now missed two of his three penalties for club and country this campaign, following an abysmal second effort for the Red Devils last night. Although the reigning PFA Player of the Year notched one goal and two assists in his previous three league outings, Hazard’s performances – bar the Arsenal encounter – have fallen well short of his lofty standards. From a statistical viewpoint, the 11.3-priced midfielder ranks joint-third among midfielders for key passes (28), but is ranked 32nd for attempts (12), underlining his limited goal threat. That being said, his 27% ownership will be hopeful of a revival as the Blues prepare to host an Aston Villa outfit that shipped eight goals in their last three road clashes.

Mixed News for Newcastle

Georginio Wijnaldum fired a low strike into the bottom corner to open the scoring for Netherlands in a 2-1 win over Kazakhstan last night. On the injury front, Tim Krul fell awkwardly in the closing stages and, according to Holland boss Danny Blind, may well have sustained a “bad injury”.
The Magpies stopper left the stadium on crutches and is set for scans to ascertain the full damage.

The Scout Says: Wijnaldum has been relatively impressive during the Magpies’ eight-match winless streak, offering the most quality of their struggling midfield contingent. The Dutchman has racked up two goals and an assist so far, earning 30 points in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game – double the tally of any Newcastle midfielder. Valued at 6.8, Wijnaldum is likely to be at the nucleus of his attacking play if they can discover their groove during an excellent run of fixtures (NOR, sun, STO, bou, LEI, cry). Krul’s potential absence, meanwhile, would promote Rob Elliot as a budget option between the posts. With Karl Darlow also injured, Elliot – at just 4.0 in FPL – would offer Fantasy managers a cut-price route into Steve McClaren’s backline as the Magpies look to climb the table.

Darmian Amongst the Azzurri Goals

United’s Matteo Darmian netted a long-range effort during Italy’s 3-1 victory over Azerbaijan. Southampton’s Graziano Pelle featured from start to finish for Antonio Conte’s side but failed to play a part in any of the goals.

The Scout Says: Darmian turned out a host of assured performances for United through the first five Gameweeks but has since been substituted at half time in each of their last two road matches. The Italian’s propensity for picking up yellow cards saw him clamber onto the Suspension Tightrope last time out after he earned a fourth caution of the campaign in the 3-0 loss to Arsenal. With Luke Shaw injured and Daley Blind classified as a midfielder, the 6.3-priced Chris Smalling looks the safest route into the Red Devils’ rearguard for those eyeing up their kind schedule from Gameweek 11 onwards.

Sigurdsson Notches in Iceland Stalemate

Gylfi Sigurdsson scored an excellent solo effort in Iceland’s 2-2 draw against Latvia. The Swansea playmaker dribbled from inside his own half before slotting into the bottom corner from just outside the box.

The Scout Says: Priced 0.1 below Sigurdsson, at a cost of 7.2 to 7.3, Andre Ayew – who’s notched four goals in eight starts – has emerged as the choice route into Swansea’s midfield this season. Although the Iceland international lays claim to more shots (18) than the Ghanaian winger (17), only five of these (compared to Ayew’s 13) were from inside the box, illustrating his penchant for a long-range effort. The Icelandic international has struggled to rediscover the form that racked up seven goals and ten assists last term and has just one goal and a single assist to his name. With a largely favourable quintet of fixtures (STO, avl, ARS, nor, BOU) to follow, Ayew –providing he recovers from a knock that forced him to withdraw from Ghana duties – looks the likelier source of points for Garry Monk’s men.

    For the next two Gameweeks:

    A- Hoolahan (new, WBA)
    B- Morrison (SUN, nor)

    1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Tricky Hoolahan just, don't be surprised if he sees some rest though

  3. GreennRed
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    If Pelle can become consistent, like he seems to be, then surely Lukaku can?

    Or has Lukaku had too many bouts of inconsistency that he's a dodgy replacement for Aguero ?

    1. Gussy
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      It's a small sample size so far but I guess anyone can improve so fingers crossed its the former suggestion!

      1. GreennRed
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        The outliers outlier 😉

    2. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah, I think people forget just how young Lukaku still is. He's getting better all the time and one of the things def included in that is his consistency. He's a great Kun replacement.

      1. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Consistently had a month of 2's when Everton were doing well. I'm not sold, especially for the next two GWs.

        1. JAC THE CAT
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          He loves performing in tricky fixtures

          The next two GW's are made for him!

          1. BERGKOP
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            It's the troll in him that kills me. He's burnt me before!!!

            Utd not really a hard fixture. Already scored a hatty against them b4 😀

            1. sleecc
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              True, MUN have been very leaky in recent games since GW4, they conceded 8 goals and only kept a CS against Sunderland.

              1. money face bandwagon
                • 10 Years
                8 years, 8 months ago

                Yeah. And the first 3gw are against poor attacking teams too. So from an attackin pov against utd is not too bad

            2. Belalugozi78
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              3 years ago, in last GW when everything was fixed and United played some fringe players. It doesn't count really

              1. money face bandwagon
                • 10 Years
                8 years, 8 months ago

                Looking at this season performance i wouldnt be surprised if lukaku scores a brace against utd

    3. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Both Pelle and Lukaku are on form, but Pelle has a better fixtures than Lukaku. I think Lukaku is the next best replacement for Kun after Pelle.

    4. rozzo
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No Mirallas improves Lukaku massively imo

      1. Belalugozi78
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Why?

        1. rozzo
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Mirallas is too greedy. Decent player in his own right but rarely passes. Delefou has already bagged a few assists, Barkley can pick a decent pass from time to time. He now has players able to pass to him.

          Plus the odd free kick and penalty can't do any harm.

  4. JAC THE CAT
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Used my FT on Aguero

    Do I need to take a hit on my defence?

    Butland - McCarthy

    Kompany - Dawson - Gomez - Richards - Prodl

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No.

    2. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No, it'll do.

    3. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No

    4. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 12 Years

      You will get by this week, sort it next week

    5. JAC THE CAT
      • 10 Years

      Cheers all

      Was hoping this would be the response 🙂

  5. For Fuchs Sake
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Would you WC with this team? Feel I'm missing Sanchez/KDB etc.

    Butland Ruddy
    Williams Cedric Francis Coates Kolarov
    Haz Payet Westwood Mahrez Mane
    Kun Vardy Martial

    Thanks!!

    1. Zizoulicious
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No WC, just Kun -> Pelle and bring in Sanchez this week and KdB next maybe

    2. Jigger & Pony
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Kun + Westwood > Bony + Sanchez and you're good to go

  6. GreennRed
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    De Bruyne to be more 9is in Aguero's absence even if Bony gets some starts ?

  7. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Any advice with this lot please?....is it a simple kun to Pelle with my ft?....or is it worth taking a hit to improve Westwood or ighalo....0.1 short for Costa unfortunately.....

    Currently

    Begovic McCarthy
    Kolarov clyne Dawson Francis oshea
    Sanchez mahrez payet kdb Westwood
    Kun Martial ighalo

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Yep. Kun to Pelle

      Ighalo is a decent shout. Hold him

  8. money face bandwagon
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    With all the new changes in managers i am glad that i still have my wc.

    Could easily get in a few pool players if klopps effect takes place. Not to mention the likes of sunderland and chelsea could be back to form..providing cheap and explosive options respectively

  9. ihateramsey2

          Would help if we knew the rest of your team and how much money you have in the bank.

        2. Woy of the Wovers
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Sánchez

    2. Aseel
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Eriksen?

  10. Jigger & Pony
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    So annoying Pelle now 80%+ to rise in price... We need to hold of getting him in until after Tuesday.

    1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      If it's Aguero your replacing it doesn't really matter

      1. Zizoulicious
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        This !

        1. potatoace
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          not this..

          that.

      2. Woy of the Wovers
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        It does if Pellè gets injured.

        1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          His % to rise would be irrelevant even then if he was injured

          1. Woy of the Wovers
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            J&P wants to buy before the price rise, but doesn't want to buy until Pellè has finished his international games.

    2. drughi
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      well does it matter really if it's aguero>pelle you are doing ? It's not like you are going to be priced out

  11. Belalugozi78
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Who do you think score more points in next 2 weeks?
    A. Costa

      lets make it 3 out of 3 today.

  14. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Ighalo or Sakho out for Bony?

    already have Payet

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Sakho

    2. ihateramsey2
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      u didnt have aguero and now u want bony??

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        I had Aguero and Got Pelle in for him

      2. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Bony is much cheaper funds might have dictated the fact why he didn't own Aguero

    3. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Sakho

    4. Sailboats
      • 8 Years

      Sakho

    5. Rex Lapis

      Sakho

  15. Dynamic Duos
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    General consensus is Kun to Pelle, so I obviously won't be doing this 😉 so Sturridge it is and Surman to Wijnaldum next gwk.

    1. Sepp Blattered
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years

          I like the Wijnaldum punt but too risky atm. Too many options in Midfield that are consistently performing imo

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            I got Sanchez Mata Mane Payet to go with him.

            1. Sepp Blattered
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Mata shouldn't be there until Utd play WBA week.

              He's going to be blanking next 2GWs

              1. Dynamic Duos
                • 10 Years
                8 years, 8 months ago

                He will get something at Eve and the Derby will be a goal fest imo.

    2. drughi
      • 14 Years

      havent you said costa all the time ?

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 10 Years

        Yeh it's this at moment but posted below my many options 🙂

    3. arthadox
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Went with Sturridge too, it is quite a risk, but I am willing to do it. Anything to help beat my opponent.

  16. Sepp Blattered
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Aiming for this midfield in 3 weeks

    Sanchez KDB Eriksen Payet Ayew

    Damn.. Wish their was a 6th spot for Mané.

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I'd have Mane ahead of Ayew for sure and probably Eriksen although I fancy him to do well over the course of their nice upcoming fixtures

      1. Sepp Blattered
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        I like Mané too but over the next 6 GWs.. Ayew has the better fixtures.

        It'll be a direct swap out after.

      2. Sepp Blattered
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Also Ayew will score and is Swansea's best attacker while We've also got Pellè who will out score Mané and more essential.

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No Mahrez!!!

      1. Sepp Blattered
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Have him currently but Leicester fixtures will tighten up. I'll be doing Mahrez to KDB

        KDB v Norwich (H)
        Mahrez v WBA ( A)

  17. ameenkw
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Mignolet / ruddy
    Azpi / Cedric / Williams / huth / Francis
    Hazard / sterling / mahrez / payet / surman
    Aguero / sakho / diouf

    Should I wc or transfer Aguero n move on? I'm rly not sure!

  18. mbrucie
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    With Walcott cementing a starting berth over Giroud, if Santi was off the field (and wasn't replaced by Arteta) for some reason or other, who would be on pens for Arsenal?

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Ozil imo

  19. Dynamic Duos

    Which combo do you like most guys?

    A) Costa and Cabaye
    B) Sturridge and Wijnaldum
    C) Hazard and Mitrovic

      Very very very bad strategy

    2. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years

      No. Watford tight at home

      1. The Royal Robin
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Fair doos. I definitely don't know when to use it. Just don't know if saving it for a double GW is worthwhile as everybody will be doing that.

        1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          That doesn't make sense.

          1. The Royal Robin
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            Why doesn't it?

            Using the chip when most people will be planning on using it won't get you very far.

            1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Only thing that matters is your total number of points at the end of the season. Use the triple captain chip when you think it will get you most points, not when other people won't be using it.

              Your logic is flawed. Doesn't matter WHEN you get the points, just how many you get.

        2. BERGKOP
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          There'll be a plumb double GW fixture worth holding out for at some stage. It'll be on here, don't you worry.

          So, running the risk of losing heaps of ground to those that are using it in a DGW is worthwhile?

    3. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Bad move.

    4. madame shelly
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      no no no no. use it in a dgw for SURE. although i said the same last week with aguero 🙂 BUT, before the match he was out of form and newcastle were tightening up. if you could play with hindsight, great. you can't. so you only do what you can control, and playing either of the two worthwhile chips in anything other than a dgw is just madness

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Go 4 it

  22. Quinny___
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    How long is Aguero out for, Should I take another hit (Already have a -4) to get him out?

    Have a weak bench also

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      You've asked this question a few times already

      Take the hit

      1. Quinny___
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        I know. Just trying to get a broad opinion. My bad

    2. The Royal Robin
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I've already taken the -4 hit on Aguero.

  23. Tshelby
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Did my transfers all ready but now keep aguero or get someonels (-4)?

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Hit

      1. Tshelby
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Get Bony? Got Vardy and Pelle

        1. _Gunner
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Do it

  24. Waterboyd
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Should I use WC now to better this team? Or will a FT be sufficient?

    Ruddy (Butland)
    Azpi Cedric Kolarov (Nyom, Huth)
    Silva, Payet, Mahrez, Ayew (Wanyama)
    Martial, Aguero, Sakho

    Silva -> KDB seems ok but meaningless. Ayew, Silva, Nyom are yellow flagged. Martial is definitely a shout, with Everton and possible goals against City.

    Sakho & Payet have weird fixtures, with Crystal Palace doing magnificently but against a struggling Chelsea.

    And most importantly, Aguero out for 2-8 weeks.

    Pelle -> Aguero for free? Do Ayew, Silva, Nyom need any moves worth for a hit?

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah Kun to Pelle and Silva to KdB for a -4. That team defo doesn't warrant a wildcard

      1. Waterboyd
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Is Silva definitely out? If not the KDB move shouldn't be necessary?

        1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          I think he is, yes. Heard 3 weeks. But don't quote me on that.

        2. Fitzy.
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Mahrez Is The New Ramsey says that he's out for 3 weeks.

  25. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Aguero->
    A) Costa
    B) Lukaku and soon upgrade Westwood to Yaya or other max 9.6 (
    C) Ighalo and upgrade Westwood to Hazard next week

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Romelu

    2. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      B, but why upgrade Westwood is necessary?

  26. jimbobmij
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Is it worth keeping Dawson if on wildcard? Next few fixtures are good but after that they go dramatically down hill.

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Got Bertrand?

    2. Odikostar
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      rather soton def

  27. FFFrog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Is this worth a -20?

    Adrian, Zouma, Redmond, Sakho, Aguero > Mitrovic, Lukaku, KDB, Bellerin, Cech

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      No. Kun to Lukaku is fine.

    2. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Never

    3. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Worth it for our entertainment but otherwise no.

    4. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Certainly not

  28. chilli con kone

    Very surprised that Bony is barely getting a look in around here. Silva having a knee injury means that Sterling is needed in Midfield. Don't think Pellegrini will play the young lad ahead of him...that would kill off his confidence which is already low. He is the number 2 and the next 4 fixtures give him plenty of opportunity to get his form back so Pelle will give him time IMO

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Better options available. Bony misses too much.

    2. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Bony is awful

    3. Quinny___
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      A city team without Silva, Aguero, Yaya and Kompany isnt very appealing. City without Silva alone go very downhill

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        +1

  29. aguero
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    is speroni nailed on as number 1 for palace (hene's got 2 cleanies in the last 2 )

    1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Have another look

      1. aguero
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        as in?

  30. Quinny___
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Liverpool's fixtures are dreadful, but Sturridge is still appealing to me. Anyone else going with him?

    Spurs, Soton and Chelsea the next 3

    1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Might work out, pretty fixture proof Sturridge, usually can score against anyone, and in Klopps honeymoon period

      1. Quinny___
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        You summed it up well. Lukaku has united and Arsenal next so he isnt really on my radar. Owning Costa is risky, card magnet, never gets bonues

    2. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Thinking about it, Liverpool have beat spurs in last four and Sou in last three.

    3. madame shelly
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      will wait i think. klopp tried to sign benteke once

      1. Quinny___
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        He could always play both. I dont think you can leave either on the bench if in form.

        Klopp wanting Benteke obviously means he's an admirer but maybe he just new Sturridge wasnt a player he could tempt away and/or would be to expensive.

        Im a united fan and if you offered me Benteke or Sturridge , its Sturridge easily imo. But then again im not a world class manager like Klopp so....
