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.

    1, 2 or 3?
    1) Mahrez & Costa.
    2) Hazard & Vardy.
    3) DeBruyne & Lukaku.

        And Grabben? Don't you love/hate autocorrect, lol.

        On your team, think Mahrez has been a little off and so I went with Hazard instead.
        Doubling up on ManU defenders could be risky. What about a Southampton or Everton defender? Toffees have a good run of fixtures to start the season and Ashley Williams just signed.

  3. John3.16

    Is Oscar going to start?? I see him as a cheap way into the Chelsea attacking options. Seems to have had plenty of pre-season game time?

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

      I hope so as I've drafted him in - strong pre-season with 3 goals against decent opposition

  4. John3.16
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Will Bolasie start for Everton?

  5. FreddyBentos
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Lots of choices for captain on GW1. Im one of the few that think Moyes and Sunderland could cause an upset against City! Pep isnt familiar with the Prem and Moyes has the experience to do a job on City! I think van Aanholt or Defoe could be the surprise points hitter for the first GW! You heard it here first!

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

    RMT updated

    Foster (Jaku)
    Valencia - Azpi - Friend (Brunt - Francis)
    Hazard - Mkhi - Barkley - Tadic (Fletcher)
    Aguero - Gray - Negredo

    Still not sure on Negredo or Wilson, Valencia or Shaw

    If Mkhi shouldnt start i would take Gradel..

    Thoughts?
    Thx

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

      I've gone for Valencia due to his assist potential, also gone for Negredo as he will start and they have a good run of fixures for 1-6.

      Mkhi I would love to put in but feel it's too risky so have gone for more sure bets.

  7. kooshini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Does nobody fancy Nolito over GW 1-6? City don't have great opposition

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

      Need to see him play a couple games before committing...so many ways to climb this mountain.

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

    1. Will Alderweireld play vs Everton?

    Which defender do I pick out of these?
    2. Ward (PALACE vs west brom), Wollscheid (middlesboro vs STOKE) or Targett (SOUTHAMPTON vs watford)?

    Which midfielder do I pick out of these?
    3. Grujic (arsenal vs LIVERPOOL), Iwobi (ARSENAL vs liverpool), Davis (SOUTHAMPTON vs watford) or Hojbjerg (SOUTHAMPTON vs watford)?

    This years midfield options are increasing the difficulty of making final decisions. I am still sure that before Saturday this will change but for now:

    RMT:

    DDG/Jaku

    Walker Stones Shaw Fuchs (Evans)

    Hazard Alli Deulofeu Redmond Bolasie/Kante

    Gray Vardy Kane

    1. Big Robbo
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No aguero?

  11. Claustrophobic
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    1. Ibra. Costa. Musa.
    2. Ibra. Aguero. Diomande.

    which one would you go with?

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

      playing 3-5-2 obviously in the 2. scenario....

  12. Michael41
    • 9 Years

    Please RMT

    Foster , Jakupovic
    Walker , Stones , Friend , Kone , paredes
    Hazard , Mane , Tadic , Bolasie , capoue
    Aguero , Ibrahimovic , Gray

    Thinking maybe Redmond instead of Bolasie?

    1. choop32

      solid bloody team

  13. Steve Stiffler

      looks solid. Terry might be a question mark - I wouldn't double up on Chelsea defense.

  15. Langley van Gaal
    • 10 Years

    currently have RMT score of 260 - anybody manage better? are people basing selections on the RMT tool outputs?

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

      Not sure about midfield. Maybe swap Lamella + Mkhit for Firmino + Ayew/Tadic/Siggy? leaves 0.5m surplus too, I think....

      1. Gozzys Galacticos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I considered this. BTW I think with more favourable fixtures in week 1 and 2 I decided they'd be my first transfers. Thanks for the response...I will ponder some more

  20. IEVGEN87
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    RMT, please. Any minds about this:

    1) De Gea (Jacupovic)

    2) Terry - Morgan - Stones (Amat, Paredes)

    3) Firmino - Willian - Lamela - Feghouli - Tadic

    4) Aguero - Ibra (Gray)

    1. apk12
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Boro will suprise this season i think! Lots of cheap players and they willl surprise a few!

      Overall , i think you have a solid team here! Mahrez for Silva or Ozil

      Cheers

    Please can you rate my team:

    GK: Foster
    DEF: McAuley, Morgan, Van Dijk
    MID: Hazard, Firmino, Deulofeu, Townsend.
    ST: Aguero, Zlatan, Gray.

    *I'm planning to use my wildcard during the international break (after GW3).

    1. jackjones
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      There are better options than Deulofeu. And you're missing a few players

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

      Looks solid, except bellerin probably not worth it right now given their injuries

  27. chanchunyim
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Need some opinion on Mahrez

    Foster - (Jaku)
    Stones, Valencia, Morgan (or Friend?) - (Parades, Amat)
    Lamela, Hazard, Tadic, Mahrez - (Ayew)
    Aguero, Musa, Gray

    DEF- I think def is solid, but Morgan could struggle a bit with an ageing Huth and loss of Kante. Should I go with Friend or stick with Morgan?

    MID - Mahrez... but would Firmino be a better option? Who else could be a better candidate to fill the spot?

    FWD - Musa or Vardy? Unsure if Musa will be in starting XI ; Gray or Long?

    Suggestions or comments anyone? Thanks

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

      I've had similar issues, but have gone with Morgan as a safe bet for now. Mahrez isn't sharp, firmino looks outstanding

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

        Thanks for your feedback JackJones, but I made a few changes to the roster

        Updated roster:

        Foster - (Jaku)
        Stones, Valencia, Morgan - (Parades, Amat)
        Lamela, Hazard, (Redmond over Tadic), Mahrez - (Capoue)
        Aguero, Kane, Long

        What do you think now?

      Strong defence and strikers, but having both Mkhit and Nolito is risky. I'd swap them for Hazard and Firmino
