Our Rate My Team tool and the associated Projections enjoyed an extensive update overnight as we applied tweaked player appearance probabilities based on the pre-season matches.

Further updates are planned today once Andre Ayew is moved to the West Ham squad and Paul Pogba arrives in the game.

We will also be updating the team attack and defence ratings based on the current bookmaker market trends.

Indeed, both Rate My Team and the Projections are likely to be tweaked on a daily basis as further team news breaks over the week. If you’re using these tools, be sure to check back each day to see how the changes reflect on your current selections.

If you’re not using these tools and are wondering how they can help you, we’ve got an FAQ on both of them here.

Meanwhile, late last week we created an updated movie previewing both Rate My Team and the Projections.

These tools are accessible as part of the Fantasy Football Scout Membership. This is currently available for the pre-season price of £12.50 (RRP £15.00).

Users with free accounts can upgrade via this link, while new users can register as members here.

    VVD or Williams??

    1. Chris_White
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      no

      vvd

    2. F4NTASY F00TBA11
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      VVD
      and no

  2. reason17

    If palace get Benteke, who is thinking about getting him for GW1?

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      They do have tasty fixtures

    2. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He won't play gw 1

    3. Boris Bodega
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      definitely

    4. anish10
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Me certainly

    5. NissA
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He hasn't played much in preseason, has he? Wouldn't believe he'd be playing the first game.

    6. Milner4eva
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He doesn't have any match sharpness, and he plays Spurs away in GW2.

      GW3 at the earliest.

    7. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Would love him at Palace, but doubt he plays GW1.

  3. anish10
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hows this looking, may bring in Benteke if he's confirmed before the weekend for Gray.

    Foster || Jaku
    Valencia || Stones || Terry || Friend || B.Smith
    Sanchez || Redmond || Hazard || Feg || Capoue
    Aguero || Vardy || Gray

    1. sentz05
      • 9 Years

      I've been umming and arring on Sanchez for ages. Wondering whether he's value at 11.0?

      1. anish10
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        he'll be top scorer for arsenal

        1. sentz05
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          We dont have HIGH scorers as we spread goals across the team. I'm not convinced that any of them are value. I've gone with I wobi as my Arsenal player. Sensational value if he starts, which I think he will.

      2. Norman Conquest
        • 12 Years

        waiting for ozil

  4. Swans4life
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    If Bryam don't start who's a better option for 4.5?

    1. sentz05
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Pieters McCauley Friend Souare Taylor

  13. Ciaranisablue

    Currently I'd say there are 4 very attractive Man united options: De Gea, Shaw, Pogba & Ibra. part of me wants all of them course you can't do that. Which one would you guys drop?

    1. Milner4eva
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Dont have any of those. Just Valencia for me cheers

    2. CostaCoffee

  14. Kryten

    • 12 Years

    So
    a) Ramirez +4.5 def
    B)Redmond +4.0 def

    1. napoli54
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      downing +4.5 def

  15. BaasB
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone wants to rate?

    Foster | Jakupovic
    Friend | Shaw | Souaré | Walker | Kingsley
    Hazard | Lamela | Tadic | Deulofeu | Fletcher
    Ibrahimovic | Agüero | Negredo

    I got 1m bank

    Souaré to Dann (he looks injured)
    Jakupovic to Butland?
    Walker to Alderweireld?

  16. stat
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Foster / Heaton

      Funes Mori / Valencia / Morgan / Friend / Stones

      Mahrez / Redmond / Martial / Feghouli / Lamela

      Aguero / Gray / Lukaku

      In defence I'll have coverage from WBA / Burnley (goalies) and 3 of Everton / Man Utd / Leicester / Man City / Boro (defenders) per GW.

      Stones might have to fight Otamendi for a place later on, but Kompany won't be back for another month or so, so Stones is a pretty good buy for now I think. Similarly, there might be some competition between Funes Mori and Kone if that deal goes through, though Funes Mori will probably be favored based on how he did last season, and in case he loses his place I can easily get Williams (his lack of a pre-season makes me hesitant to instantly pick him up).

      Feghouli and Redmond are risks, but both look like they will be involved in the first few gameweeks, and they rotate very well too (WAT, BOU, SUN, WAT, SWA, SOU, MID, BUR, SUN). Redmond could also be played OOP, and Feghouli has apparently been West Ham's best player in pre-season.

      All of my attackers should be on penalties, while Mahrez, Martial and Lamela are all fantastic attacking threats who you can rely on to score and to assist.

      What do you guys think of my team?

      1. Gazpilicueta
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        shameless repost

    • FrankieTheGent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Paredes 19% ownership is a big risk.
      Watford will likely not do so hot against: sot - CHE - ARS - whm - MUN
      With early wildcards and viable options coming to the fore isn't it likely he'll be south of 4 mil by week 5 and a big headache to sort out as a result ?

      1. Milner4eva
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        yeah, he's not even gonna play

      2. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yes. Poor pick.

      3. Limbo
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        But, if he plays, it could mean the opposite with teams wildcarding and looking for a 4m playing option to squeeze more out of their 11.

        1. Milner4eva
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Someone who seemed to have done their homework said the other day that he has no chance

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

          Even if he plays
          He'll have come through
          sot - CHE - ARS - whm - MUN

          And unless he's the ONLY 4mil then he'll be damaged goods

      4. Ian Davis
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Who would you recommend instead for a 4.0 defender?

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

          I don't have one. I'm saying starting off highly owned is a valuation risk.
          Given the first 5 GW fixtures

            • 15 Years

      Hey, could a member help me out please? Trying to use the 1-6 projections, but want to change it to 1-3. Is there any way to do that on the site, or export the data to excel?

      Thanks in advance.

        You can't. Use RMT instead

    • Bubz
      • 12 Years

      I genuinely feel the more you overthink and deliberate on possible options/combinations the worse your team becomes.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Why do you think I only pick players I like.....it does your head in otherwise.

      • 16 Years

      So Amat is the go to guy now?

      4m starter?

      1. Chris_White
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Van der Hoorn (or whatever he's called) is lurking...

        1. Christina.
          • 16 Years

          oh.

    • Chris_White
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Somehow Silva has been in my team for quite a while. Guess that means I think he'll do well from the go. How do people see his prospects?

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Could be a great under the radar pick. He has the quality

    • CFC1990
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Lamela or Tadic?

      1. Chris_White
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Tadic

      2. LewanGOALski
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Tad for me

    • Alexis Nonsense
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Guys need some input here to help my picks:

      Ok, so

      Ayew at West Ham, will he play as a winger now or striker?

      Stones at City....I'm thinking he will not play first gameweeks and drop 0.5 in value....

      Pogba at Man Utd... btw never mind I don't care.

      Appreciate any input

      1. So Troublesome
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I think we have to wait and see with Ayew.

      2. reason17
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        People are not stupid, those that get Stones for gw1 will wait until he plays.

    • reason17
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      RMT/10 please

      De Gea - Jaku
      Terry - Stones - Morgan - Friend - taylor
      Mahrez - Tadic - Martial - Bolasie - Capoue
      Aguero - Costa - Gray

      1. Gazpilicueta

        7/10

    • So Troublesome
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Rejigged the team again.

      Heaton
      McAuley Stones Pieters
      Barkley Tadic Iwobi Martial
      Costa Aguero Vardy

      Jakupovic Ramirez Daniels Amat.

      May swap Daniels/Amat for two 4.5s.

      Costa will get goals this season surely.

    • The Yorkshire Pirlo
      • 9 Years

      1. Kane, Mahrez, Lamela

      2. Vardy, Firmino, Eriksen

    • Upside14
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      How's this looking? Thinking im gonna have to play 4 defenders;

      Cech (jaku)
      Shaw, Stones, Baines, Evans, (paredes)
      Haz, Tadic, Firmino, (Hoj, Fletcher)
      Carroll, Ibra, Aguero

    • Milner4eva
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Pre-season bandwagons set to crash and burn:

      Redmond: when everyone realises he's average and doesn't score that many FPL points
      Williams: when he isn't even in the squad for GW1
      Ibra: when he doesnt get a kick against Bournemouth because he has half the time on the ball that he's used to

      any more?

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Gray

      2. Upside14
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        thought that about Ibra but he's an easy swap for Kane.

        I would add aguero too when he inevitably gets injured.

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

        Andre Gray - because everyone is all about him and he's on fire in preseason.
        Baines - when he's not on pens
        B. Foster - when we realize the magic of Pulis is gone

      4. Pompel
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Probably right - but that's what FT's are for

      5. Cesc's old mullet
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        The thing with Ibra for me is that there isn't another striker I'd like to have : Maybe Kane/Vardy, but since I'm WCing early, they don't tickle my fancy

    • The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      How about the following team?

      Mignolet, Forster
      Targett, Bellerin, Fuchs, Friend, Shaw
      Antonio, Alli, Fletcher, Iwobi, Tadic
      Akpom, ibra, Aguero
