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.

    So Everton hope to be spending some of that Stones money on Bolasie. Would that be the end of Deulofeu's fantasy potential? Surely there is to much of a rotation risk with Mirallas, Barkley & Lennon there as well?

    Still, Townsend would become a more interesting prospect.

    1. clownbot2000
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      good point. + Amat surely nailed at Swansea if Williams goes to Everton

  2. Shack
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Is there a pre-season scout cast?

    1. JIM BOB
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yep, sure Jonty posted something about one on Thursday i think?

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

      90% Thursday

  3. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Ignoring ManU striker and having both Redmond and Ramirez too risky?

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

      Nah.

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Nope. Have that atm. They rotate really nicely first 5

    3. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes, but if you have Valencia in defense, you might get away with it.

  4. soulivests9
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    John Flanagan going to start for Burnley?

    Sorry.. new page..

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Probably, yeah

  5. Respect My Authoritah

    RMT score for GW1?

    Got it up to 55.7 with my current set up. Is 60 possible?

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

      i am on 58.9 and I can't get it up haha. whats your line-up?

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

      I fell into that trap last year.
      My actual points were about 50 short of projections in the first 3 gwks. ðŸ™

      1. Costa's Counsellor
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        But they've re-wotsited the algothingys.

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

          Hmm. It's a handy tool. Wouldn't take it as gospel though.

      2. Respect My Authoritah
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah, I know - not going to use it for selections, just nice to see a high score 🙂

  6. Morgs
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Please RMT:

    Valdes (Foster)
    Shaw - Fuchs - Friend (Pieters - McAuley)
    Mahrez - Hazard - Cabaye - Ibe (Leko)
    Aguero - Ibra - Gray

    0.0 ITB - there has to be a better option than Cabaye for 6.0m, anyone wanna help? Thanks

    1. soulivests9
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Cabaye is not a good option at all...

    2. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Redmond for 6.0

  7. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Bottomed

    Heaton / Jak
    Valencia / VVD / Friend / Kone / Amat
    Firmino / Hazard / Tadic / Redmond / Rodwell
    Ibra / Kun / Gray

    Thoughts?

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

      Too much Rodwell.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Whom else would you get for 4.5 that isn't named Capoue?

        1. Mata-Is-The-Juan
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Meyler if you want a motivation to watch Hull play.

          1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            *throws up a little*

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

          Dunno. Leko, Fletcher, Capoue 🙂
          There was even talk of Rodwell being used as an emergency centre back. I don't like him, that's just me.

          1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            I wavered between WBA options. Might go with Leko.

    2. Silva’s Left Nut
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Worried about no Leicester?

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I was, but then I wasn't.

    Thoughts on this 15:

    Foster Jakupovic

    Friend Stones Evans Williams Shaw

    Mahrez Eriksen Bolasie Capoue Tadic

    Agüero Gray Ibrahimovic

    Too defense heavy? Need to upgrade mids?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Stones and Williams - IMO, too soon.
      Mahrez is unsettled with this new Chelsea rumor (and played poorly in CS), so I'd spend the big money elsewhere.
      Good otherwise

  9. Ber2k
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    The Mahrez rumours and the fixtureproofness of Firmino have made me wobble while allowing me to get Stones in with the extra coin.

    Disclaimer - The following team contains elements of template which some managers may find disturbing.

    Foster - Jakupovic

    Valencia - Terry - Stones - Byram - Pieters

    Hazard - Firmino - Deulofeu - Redmond - Capoue

    Aguero - Ibrahimovic - Gray

    Vardy + Tadic for Ibra + Redmond?

    1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Keep Ibra and Redmond.

      1. Ber2k
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I'm thinking the same so I can swap to Kane easily when the time comes.

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

      That's my team

  10. Every Dog Has Its Day
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Is Michy Batshuayi nailed?

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

      nope

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

      No.

    3. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      As I always say. If you need to ask probably not.

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

      He's extremely likely to play. Not nailed but I wouldn't avoid him

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

        Hazard and Costa will start up front against West Ham as things stand.

        1. Emp

            • 11 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Yeah this pretty much

            Costa
            Haz - Matic - Oscar - Willian
            Kanté
            Azpi - Cahill - Terry - Ivan
            Courtois

            1. Ayew Serious
              • 10 Years

              Hi, I'm gonna email you now, check

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

    I currently have both Deulofeu and Barkley. I need a drink.

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

      thats a sign you need to autopick and leave it for a couple of days

  12. How Mina You
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Do we think Feghouli will be a starter for West Ham? If so, he looks like an absolute steal at 5.5m.

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

      not nailed

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Possibly, even probably. But not when Lanzini is back. Less so, now Ayew has come.

  13. The Man Pastore
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Which team would you pick:

    A)
    Courtois l Jaku
    Valencia l Coleman l McAuley l Friend l Lenihan
    Hazard l Eriksen l Deulofeu l Redmond l Capoue
    Kun l Ibra l Gray

    B)
    Mandanda l Mannone
    Valencia l Stones l McAuley l Friend l Lenihan
    Hazard l Sanchez l Deulofeu l Redmond l Capoue
    Kun l Vardy l Gray

    Thanks!

      1. The Man Pastore

    A:

    Foster/ Jaku
    Azpil—Belerin—Rose /Daniels/Pieters

    Is Man City's defence actually worse now that they've signed John Stones?

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

      no

    2. Kings of Lyon ★
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes. They now have Hart and Stones.

  16. le flem
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    when's the scout watchlist for next gw going to be up?

  17. Roughly 100 people are joining every minute, there are 4831 minutes till the season begins... So that means 483,100 people should join by Saturday at 12:30 ... meaning 2,279,254 players by Saturday!! 😀

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

      more...

      1. How many more?

        1. Jazz!
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          A mill

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

          couple hundred thousand at least, normally spikes the final few days before deadline

          1. Ok cool, it was just an estimate 🙂

  18. BooYaKasha
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Guys
    A) Mahrez + Oscar + Ibra

    Or

    B) Hazard + Silva + Vardy

  19. Cradders
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone know if Routledge will get minutes for Swansea?? Guessing Fer and Siggy have their spots nailed down. Montero not really shown too much Dyer was on loan last season, do thye have any other wingers??

  20. Costa's Counsellor

  21. Pompel
    • 12 Years

    Having al of Stones, Kone and Evans in defense, would you be concerned they might all miss out in GW1 if moving to new clubs?

    1. Cesc's old mullet

      Evans is going to move?

      1. Pompel

        Rumors that Arsenal are interested

  22. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Any other Swansea midfielder than Siggy worth having?

    Fer or pre season bandwagon Routledge perhaps?

    1. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'm looking at Fer, but doesn't look like a popular pick on here.

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Has he done anything during pre season? I remember him having decent season few yrs ago.

          • 14 Years

          Been playing well I think. But only from what I've read - not seen anything myself

  23. Gabriel Agbonlahor
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Rate My Agueromovic Team

    Foster Jaku
    Shaw Stones Friend Pieters Smith
    Hazard Mahrez Siggy Feghouli Hojbjerg
    Aguero Ibrahimovic Negredo

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Looks really good but would change Mahrez and Siggy but nothing wrong having them both with those fixtures.

  28. Bobby_Baggio

    First RMT so far. Been taking in all the comments so let me know how lame this is:

    -------------------Heaton----------------------
    ---------Pieters - Stones - Terry -----------
    -Firmino - Redmond - Hazard - Martial-
    ----------Vardy - Aguero - Gray ------------

    (Jaku) - (Friend - Capoue - Amat)

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

      I'd go Eriksen instead of Martial and upgrade Redmond to Deulofeu/Townsend.

      Looks good.

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

        Ok thanks for the reply Chris

  29. Areid13

    A or B?
    Martial deu and Vardy +0.5
    or

    Rout ledge or Kante or other?
