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.

    3. BigManBakar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

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

      Dont think there's anyone good for 6.0 really. I'd really try stretch to Townsend if possible

  3. E25
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Eriksen, Alli or Lamela for Tottenham cover (no Kane)???

    1. no1baj
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Lamela

    2. BB-8
      • 10 Years

      Alli

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

    What month/year do we expect Hull to pick up their first win?

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

      August 2017 in the championship

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

        😀

        How ya team looking Demi? I'm in a right old pickle.

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

          Same here. Got zlat and kun but midfield looking thin. Just worried about price falls early on, so making sure i have 15 nailed on starters first of all. means avoiding mkhi first week etc.

          Away win at deepdale btw

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

            Ha, yup I'm looking at starting with those two, but does knacker the midfield a bit.

            WC in first few GW's guaranteed 😀

    2. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      whenever it is they play Man U

  5. BB-8
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Rate my defence-

    Valencia Baines Stones Friend 4.0

    1. Berkan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      i like it very similar to mine ive got shaw-coleman-stones-evans-4.0

      1. Berkan
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        would you consider swapping friend for wba, ive checked the fixtures and he rotates very well with the other 3

      2. BB-8
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I'd do that but I already have Foster, so want to spread my options 🙂

    2. tom l
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      stones slightly suspicious

  6. flyfishing
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    my defence ATM

    Shaw / Baines / van Aanholt / Morgan / Evans

    to optimistic not playing any city, chelsea or spurs defenders.

    Stones and Williams is tempting, but will they play GW1?
    Swap Baines for Walker?

    Spending to much on defence?

  7. merin
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Stones or Terry?

  8. Aussie_Toon_Lad
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hey lads just after your thoughts on this squad

    Foster jak
    Shaw Morgan Williams Friend Amat
    Haz Erikson Siggy Redmond
    Aguero Zlatan Carroll

    Cheers!

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

      Fletcher 5th mid**

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

      Very similar to mine only I have vardy/gray over carroll/ibra

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

        Risky going against the masses and leaving out ibra!

    3. Viiksisika
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Almost my team there 🙂 I just changed Erikson and Redmond to Tadic and Lamela. Kinda 50/50 tho.

  9. lcfc123
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Think that Oscar will be great value but I'm just too scared to go without Hazard. Anyone else agree?

    1. John Colby (C)
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      At last - someone in the same boat as me. Costa, Hazard, Oscar is wrecking my head.

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I have Costa and Hazard. No need to look elsewhere IMO.

  10. wbreid777
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Best formation to use? Guessing its 3-4-3

  11. Pedaso Pirates
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    My first draft, would really appreciate any advice:

    De Gea, Jaku
    Walker Azpi Stones Friend Evans
    Hazard Siggy Ramsey Dier Capoue
    Ibra Kane Gray

    0.5m ITB

  12. New Post
  13. no1baj
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Valencia, Coleman, Tadic
    or
    Pieters, McAuley, Mkhitaryan

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

    repost: didnt get any opinion

    i think im happy with my team except with redmond and fegouli. so i want to take ur respected thought on that team.

    schmikel-4.0
    terry-valencia-stones-friend-4.0
    Hazard-Mahrez-Redmond-fegouli-4.5
    Augero-ibra-gray

    i can upgrade fegouli to 7m by downgrading terry and/or schmikel

    1. tom l
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      i really like it
      bojan perhaps for feguli

  15. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Not starting with Kun and Hazard

    Kasper
    Stones Valencia Friend
    Oscar Sanchez Gradel Redmond
    Ibra Vardy Kane

    Jaku Amat Capoue Kone

    0.5m ITB

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

      why?

    2. tom l
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      great team , imressive courage my lord
      sanchez to hazard
      oscar-firmino/ericsen
      redmond-tadic
      ?

  16. Jay_
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Rumours that Chelsea want Kone from Sunderland and Arsenal want Evans. Just imagine that

      Williams (EVE 5.0) Kone (CHE 4.5) Stones (MNC 5.0) Evans (ARS 4.5) plus any defender you want.

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        That would be incredible

      2. st4rt__
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I'd love Kone for anything £20m and under. Much better than Cahill.

    • vsargo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      OPinions please...

      Foster (Heaton)
      Bellerin - Dan - Mee (Morgan - van Aanholt)
      Sigurdsson - Lamela - Redmond - Tadic (Noble)
      Aguero - Vardy - Gray

      1. Cherry Bear
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Dont trust Arsenal defence

    • ANON.
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A. Tadic + Deulofeu
      B. Redmond + Firmino

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

        B. tough call but generally speaking Firmino and Redmond are goals, Deulofeu and Tadic are assists.

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

        A for fixtures

      3. Lego-Lars
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Defo B. Both might play like strikers.

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

        okay, that is pretty sick

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

          reminds you of how lethal he is. not sure why i'm overlooking him even though really we all know he's fixture proof.

    • Milner4eva
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      What do people think of a Hazard / Firmino / Tadic / Townsend midfield? Heavy enough?

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

        Firmino to Alli then yes

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

          already have Kane, and I also think that Firm's first 2 fixtures are alright

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

            I would do Kane to Vardy

      2. Lego-Lars
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Its heavier than mine so I would say yes 😉

      3. st4rt__
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Copy cat. 😉

    • FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Is Ramirez fitness really that much of a worry?

    • GARTHATRON
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Hows it looking out of 10?

      Heaton / Foster (SWA / EVE / MID / HUL / WHM / WAT)

      Valencia / Stones and play 1 of Friend / Kone / Souare

      (STO / MID / BOU / CPL / STO / CPL)

      Hazard / Tadic / Ramirez / Firminho / £4.5m

      Ibra / Gray / Kun (rotating captains)

      how does this look?
      any suggestions for a 4.5 defender? ideally who rotates well with friend. cheers.

      Foster Jaku
      Shaw morgan Mcauley friend Amat
      Hazard Eriksen Firmino Redmond Fletcher
      Aguero Ibra Borini
      What do u thinko of the Team?
      Should i go for Mahrez in place for Firmino?
      And Borini is fine or shld i get anyone else as i have 0.5 in bank.

    • Lego-Lars
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      How nailed on are Terry and Ivanovic for the first few gameweeks?

    • Hurrikane
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Hey guys, tear this to shreds.

      Foster (4m lowest %)

      Valencia | Morgan | Friend (Kone, 4m lowest %)

      Hazard | Alli | Firmino | Redmond (Capoue)

      Aguero | Vardy | Gray

      notes:
      -Think united will be great defensively, but not offensively high scoring so willing to risk no cover.
      - £1.0m in the bank for any required change after GW1, if none presents itself then Vardy -> Kane

      cheers

      1. Bexster90
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Im wondering about Man U fwd. I've put Ibra in but not sure if it's too much and could be better spent elsewhere. Thought about gray. Looks strong .

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

          To be fair I was on the Ibra wagon for ages, but after watching the Leicester game I just have this gut feeling that rooney and zlatan are too slow and cumbersome to both be on the field at the same time. If mhiki starts (there's doubts he will based on his minutes so far and what mourinho has been saying) and mourinho plays less defensively than he has been I think zlatan could have huge outputs. So for now I'm gonna wait and see.

          But who knows, could bag 4 first week.

    • FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Is John Terry even injured still? Ready for GW1?

    • Bexster90
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Ok after spending the rweek playing around and pondering here we go:

      Foster Hennessy

      Shaw. Pieters. Morgan. McAuley. Source.

      Townsend. Mahrez. Redmond. Willian. Ibe.

      Kun. Ibra. Musa.

      Don't laugh too much. Any advice appricated.

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

        You have a front 8 who are all most likely starters, you can't play them all so you will be benching points (and therefore benching £) I would downgrade Ibe or townsend to a 4.5 and upgrade the other.

        cheers

        1. Bexster90
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Cheers and thanks for the advice.

            impressive otherwise though
