Introduction to the Article Type

With so many RMTs on site, we’re going to start collecting them in these RMT Community Articles.

To start, site regular and moderator Spencer has given us his team, and some explanations of his choices. Feel free to comment on his team.

This is also a place for you to post your team, and please respond to a few others while you’re at it!

Mods have been alerted, and will spend some time on these pages responding.

Let’s try to keep the main article pages free from RMTs!

Spencer’s RMT

Fabianski – Bettinelli

Mendy – Robertson – Luiz – Boly – Tomkins

Salah – Mahrez – Pedro – Deulofeu – Stephens

Aguero – Arnautovic – Zaha

Goalkeepers

  • 9.0 on goalkeepers.  Fabianski with FPL pedigree.  Unsure on Bettinelli, but rotation with Fabianski looks good.
  • First 10 games: CRY – BOU – BUR – WLV – eve – WAT – eve – bha – cda – BOU

Defence

  • Mendy/Robertson/Luiz/Boly/Tomkins
  • Most I’ve spent in defence from the start – I normally play just one big hitter and 4 rotating cheapies.
  • All defenders with potential for attacking points.
  • Mendy a risk worth taking, looked brilliant before his injury.
  • Luiz a risk, so will keep a close eye on the Community Shield.
  • Tomkins looks to be the best 4.5 for me.

Midfielders

  • Got to start with Salah.  Can always downgrade.
  • Mahrez was brilliant at Leicester.  Playing with better players at Man City, I can only see him getting better.  Another one to look out for in the Community Shield.
  • Pedro is a risk, but if he’s nailed he will get attacking points.
  • Watford fixtures look favourable.  Deulofeu looked grerat when on loan from Barcelona last season.
  • Stephens is my 4.5 bench player.

Forwards

  • Aguero is world class.  Possibly some doubts on whether he starts or not.  Keeping an eye on the Community shield.  Will swap to Aubameyang if there are doubts.
  • Arnautovic ended last season in spectacular fashion and this has continued into pre-season.  Made the mistake of not getting him in last time around.
  • Zaha also reclassified as a forward this season.  Does this mean more bonus points?  Doubts over who his strike partner will be at Crystal palace, but I see him returning points regardless. Will need to reconsider if he moves.

1.0 itb to use in an emergency.  eg upgrade Mahrez to Mane, or Deulofeu to Doucoure.

Conclusion

The Key here is flexibility.  Setting price brackets for positions and then finding the right players to fit in.  eg I don’t know if Pedro is the right 6.5 to have, but can easily switch to Jota, Richarlison, or whoever else.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Where have I gone wrong, and where have I gone right? What do you suggest I change?

    Ederson
    Robertson Mendy Tompkins
    Salah Mané Richarlison Pedro
    King Arnautovic Tosun

    4.0 Cairney W-B Peltier

    5m in the bank - why?

    i) WC stars to return
    ii) Premiums to reveal themselves
    iii) Arsenals first two fixtures
    iv) Man City midfield mine field
    v) think the above team can hold the forth early doors

    1. Botman and Robben

      Think you should strengthen your forwards.

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Agreed but don't know whether to go Aguero, Auba or Kane yet?

        1. Petrichor II
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Auba is the safer bet compare to Kun. No rotation.

          Kane is overpriced.

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            And I'd like to see Auba over first two tough GW fixtures before pulling the trigger!
            Thanks for the reply.

      Looks great - hard to believe you still have 5M

    3. Third Eye Vision
      • 11 Years

      I really like your team. I’m focusing more on defence at the start of this season and I’m only playing 2 up top, but I’ve been thinking about how good a 3-4-3 looks with these mid-price forwards.

      I’d be tempted to upgrade Pedro with some of the money. I’d pick a City mid after watching Sunday’s game.

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers, yes would like Arsenal & City attacking assets but just not too sure yet;

        Aguero, Sané, Dilva, Mahrez, KDB
        Mkhit, Auba, Lacazette

  2. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Which is better?

    A.

    Ederson
    Robertson Ward Bailly
    Salah De Bruyne Dilva Jota
    Zaha Firmino Arnie

    Boruc Stephens Wan-Bissa Bennet

    B.

    Ederson
    Robertson Trippier Bailly

      Beautiful!
      I personally have no love for everton defence. They seem rather chaotic in pre-season. Would avoid. Plenty of other options in that price bracket, though. Considered Luiz?

    2. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Nice, looks very well balanced.

      I struggle with GK rotation (calling the correct one each GW) so deciding on Ederson set and forget!

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        True, all my previous seasons I have rotated goalies and come to regret it. Too many times playing a 2 point goalie when the one on the bench gets 9 points. Doing Ederson too.

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Nice team. You think King is a better bet than Zaha?

      1. Slumdog-Mignolet
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        I just think Zaha could leave or be back on wing with Palace being linked to so many strikers (Ings, Ayew etc)

        1. JoeJitzu +42
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          That's my thinking too. No doubt Zaha is a fine pick but I'm punting on Tosun and King's kind opening fixtures.

  4. Kekn.87
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Can't seem to decide whether or not to go for a cheap 3rd striker spot or not. How does this look?

    A) Bailly, Lennon, Firmino
    B) Shaw, Mané, Reid

    Salah-owner btw.

    1. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      A

  5. Patty
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    RMT

    Leno* Stek
    Robertson Mendy* Kabasele WB Peltier
    Salah Sane D. Silva Richarlison CHO
    Auba Zaha King

    *Leno, Mendy > Ederson, Coleman if Mendy doesn't start CS

    Also contemplating doing Sane > Mahrez and upgrading either King or Peltier, but not sure on Mahrez's minutes.

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Leno is a big risk at this stage with no backup Keeper!

      I like King and his fixtures.

  6. JoeJitzu +42
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Just A, imo

    best 4.5m def ?

    1. Petrichor II
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Tomkins or Dohearty for me

    2. zøphar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Tomkins/Doherty/Cedric

    3. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I'm liking Tompkins attacking threat!

    4. QPRUTD
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Cedric for me

    5. Botman and Robben
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Tomkins

  8. FPL Clem Fandango
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    My 845th attempt with GW1 in mind...

    Foster (Fab)
    Mendy, Robertson, W-P, Bailly (W-B)
    Salah, Mkhi, Mahrez (Richarlison, H-O)
    Aub, Arnie, Zaha

    GW2 Richarlison sub for W-P

    This has changed many times. My 733rd draft I was toying with a 4-5-1.

    Any thoughts? I'm worried missing a few more double-barrelled players...

    1. Petrichor II
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      You will try for the 850th attempt imo....hehe

    2. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Looks good, so hard to know at this stage what's right or wrong!

  9. Petrichor II
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Guys, how about this 3-4-3?
    Maybe I'm settle with this (at least for an hour)

    Fab
    Robbo, Luiz, Ward
    Salah, Mane, D.Silva, Richa
    Auba, Arnie and King !

    (Foster, Suttner, AWB, D.Ward)
    0.0 ITB Hope can find 0.5 for flexibility.

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Good, Suttner is an interesting pick, what's the thinking behind it?

      1. Petrichor II
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Actually I cant find any other 4.0 player who nailed ecept WanB.

        With no balance ITB, I must choose someone who have some chances to play.

        Paltier is injured and not so nailed.

        I found that the highest owned 4.0 player is Malone because other manager look at his total score.

        I'm avoid Malone because his high ownership can make price down. Suttner have lower ownership, safer and have some clean sheet last season mate. Maybe he'll get some minutes. Will monitor other players too.

        1. Salarrivederci
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Bednarek looks faily nailed, no?

          1. Petrichor II
            • 5 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Will moniter him. Highest PPM for 4.0 players ..

            1. Salarrivederci
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              He has played 2/2 friendlys after returning from the WC. Both games were won, and that was also after Vestergaard joined. To me it looks like Bednarek starts tbf.

        2. JoeJitzu +42
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Do you think Peltier will be back after GW1? He suffered concussion in the last friendly so has a chance?!

          1. StoichkovFPL
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            He is fine. Someone here told me that and he left hospital few days ago

  10. Dr. Rog
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Pickford/Stek
    Robbo Mendy Luiz (4, 4)
    Salah Mane Moura Richarlison (4.5)
    Kun Arnie Zaha

    Risks:
    Luiz can be easily switched to Bailley/Bellerin
    Mendy i dont see a 50mln LB as a risk personally...
    Moura is a ST placeholder punt --> Mkhi planned wk3

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah, very good!
      You've pointed it out that Moura is a punt, why him ovevsay Pedro??

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        will be pedro if Zaha doesnt move to chelsea

  11. QPRUTD
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Seeing a lot of Ederson in the RMTs here
    It leaves you with just 2 city slots, which might become an issue later on.

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Good point but so hard to know which City Mids at the moment!

      1. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        It'll become clearer. I'd rather not have to transfer a gk out when it does.

        Having said that, if the wingers rotate we're stuffed! 😀

    2. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Which is why I have gone 3 city mida

    3. Livinginapool - Top 100 Any…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah. Unnecessary too. It's the one area where players from smaller clubs can do pretty much as well as those from bigger clubs thanks to save points, bps, etc.

      Just gotta get the right one(s)...

    4. Third Eye Vision
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Having 3 City attacking players is a bit pricey though, so makes sense to have one def/gk. Ederson being nailed for 5.5 is why he’s so popular.

    5. Urchin
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Hi QPR, didn't see u around much in the off season. How you been?
      I guess you have no plans to renew the frequent poster league?

      1. QPRUTD
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Hi mate. How are you doing?
        I am much busier this year, so no chance of the frequent poster league.

    6. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      use Mane as a placeholder for city mids

  12. sparty
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Fab
    Bellerin, Mendy, Daniels,
    Mane, Sane, Richarlison, Salah, Cairney
    Aguero, Arnie

    Bench: Stek, Dunk, WB, Ings

    -Daniels will be out for Tomkins fairly soon, but GW1 looks good to me.
    -Thinking of downgrading Mane to Pedro to bolstering defence
    - Quite like Ings as a punt if he goes to CP, obviously if he doesn't then he's out.

    Thoughts? Thanks!

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sound logic, with CP getting Meyer not sure Ings will go to CP!

    2. FPL Clem Fandango
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Agree on Ings if he goes to Palace and Zaha also moves

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

    RMT:
    Ederson (Hamer)
    Robertson Luiz PVA (Daniels) (Wan-Bissaka)
    Salah Mané Richarlison Pedro (Masuaku)
    Aguero Arnie Zaha

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Very good. Any suggestions from me would only be personal bias!

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Daniels and Masuaku to Tompkins and Ward??

  14. Jimjam
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Patricio - Stekelenburg
    Robertson - Mendy - Bailly - Cedric (Wan-Bissaka)
    Salah - Eriksen - Mahrez - Richarlison (Stephens)
    Aubameyang - Arnautovic (Quaner)

    Still have 0.5 in the bank - where to use it, or just hold for now?

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Very good 11, I personally can't go with 4.5m striker bench fodder but appreciate it'd ruin your structure to upgrade to 6-7m striker

  15. QPRUTD
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Feedback appreciated

    4.5, 4.5
    Cedric, PVA, Coleman, Kiko, AWB
    Salah, Dilva, Mkhi, Richarlison, Kennedy
    Aguero, Morata, Zaha

    0 ITB

    My concerns are the following
    1) Can't decide on the 4.5 GK pairing. help appreciated
    2) Should I go with PVA and AWB?
    3) Kennedy or switch to a 4.5 MID
    4) Morata or downgrade to Arnie and keep some cash in hand

    1. MattyW
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      i like Foster/Fabianski
      yes
      keep kenedy
      i've been talked out of Morata and downgraded to Arnie

      1. QPRUTD
        • 7 Years

        Thanks mate 🙂

      2. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        That'd be my thinking too!

  16. MattyW
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    after many changes - looking at this. appreciate comments

    Foster (Fabianski)
    Robertson, Bertrand, Tomkins (Daniels) Wan-B)
    Jota, Sanchez, Salah, Richarlison, Schurrle
    Aguero, King (Arnautovic)

    1. MattyW
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      looking at this, would you downgrade Schurrle to Will Hughes and upgreade Bertrand to Mendy?

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah, possibly it Schurrle is a nice punt to try!

  17. Flynny

    Hi...any comments on this lot please?

    Emerson 4m
    Robbo bailly luiz kabasele wanbissaka
    Salah mane richarlison jota Stephens
    Kun Arnie zaha

    If zaha leaves I'll prob replace with Josh king. And upgrade Stephens to cairney or keep the 0.5m in back pocket

    Thanks

    1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 7 Years

      Decent team. Depends on how nailed Luiz and Bailly are. Nothing i can really complain about

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        Agree

  18. Jooster
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Any thoughts please?

    Pickford (Fabianski)
    TAA, Daniels, Cedric (PVA, Bamba)
    Salah, Sane, Ramsey, Jota, (Ralls)
    Aubameyang, Arnie, Zaha

    RMT recommends benching PVA GW1 - seems a waste of money. Who'd be the best 5.5m alternative?

    1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Not much point owning Bamba over Peltier - when Peltier recovers, he should be first choice. I would say PVA is the best 5.5 option right now, although when a Utd def at 5.5 becomes nailed they will be better probably.

    2. StoichkovFPL
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      TAA not nailed imo and Ramsey could not start gw1 but dont get me wrong, both nice picks but lill risky but your bench can cover that

  19. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Someone needs to go to the old RMT article and tell them the a new one. I'm too lazy to 😛

    1. MTPockets
        5 years, 9 months ago

        How's the current template looking? Guess I should start thinking about a squad.

        1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Not really much of a template. If I had to pin one down

          Ederson
          Robertson Bailly Luiz _____ AWB
          Salah Mane/Sane Jota _____
          Auba/Kun Zaha/Arnie _____

          Although there's plenty of other quality picks, and many other arguables to put into the "template"

              Cheers. Interesting although several there I'm not considering (ederson, luiz, zaha, mane + salah).

                I'm not considering several of them either. Youre not consisting Salah at all though?

                1. MTPockets
                    5 years, 9 months ago

                    Salah = for sure. Just not Mane as well.
                    But looking through some of these RMTs don't think I have a handle on picks at all yet. I need to read some articles/news.

          Top of the morning all, please rate

          Ederson
          Coleman Bailly Roberston
          Salah (c) Mane Mhki Jota
          Aguero Zaha Arnie

          4.0, Masuaku W-B Pielter

          1. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Decent team except Masuaku isn't nailed, and I personally think Everton will concede a lot so maybe Coleman isn't the best option. Other than that decent team.

          2. Zebrahimović

            Zaha and Mhki bit dodgy for me

        3. Eze Really?

          5 years, 9 months ago

          Ederson love?
          Set and forget is my reasoning at 5.5 but:
          He takes up a space when attacking options might be better.
          But:
          Could keep clean sheets on the road but struggled at home. 16 cleanies last year so 64 extra points and say 10 bonus. 72 added points.
          Really a difficult one for me.

          1. MTPockets
              5 years, 9 months ago

              "takes up a space when attacking options might be better" - sums up my view.

              1. Eze Really?
                • 9 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                He did manage to score as many poits as anyone 6.5 or lower though apart from DDG.

                1. MTPockets
                    5 years, 9 months ago

                    I didn't know that, but still prefer to use mci spots elsewhere.
                    May not prove so logical though if they underperform/over rotate.

                depends whether you have Mendy or not

                1. Eze Really?
                  • 9 Years
                  5 years, 9 months ago

                  We all know how good Mendy is but at 6 mil and not exactly a wing back, is he worth it? I noticed Pep's sides the full backs come in and support midfield. not quite the Bavies Robertson PVA mould

                • 8 Years

              What you lot recon to this?

              Since Wood got injured and Zaha's transfer uncertainty continues, I've gone with a 3/5/2. Think it's got a good balance. The 7.5 mid B.Silva slot is iffy, did have Ramsey there but he got injured.

                Almost identical to mine. The Ederson story above or rotate 4.5's

                  Who have you got in place of B.Silva? Think i'm gonna pony out of that and go 3 4 3...argh

                    I have Bilva. But I have Pereyra and Cairney, not Richi and Hughes

                    1. Zebrahimović
                      • 8 Years
                      5 years, 9 months ago

                      I have a gut feeling about Hughes that he's on for a good season this year despite playing for Watford,

                5 years, 9 months ago

                I think this is a good team, Bilva worth a punt if he plays CS imo, can always move onto Ramsey etc if he gets dropped

                1. Zebrahimović
                  • 8 Years
                  5 years, 9 months ago

                  Definitely for a couple of GWKs. Hoping Luiz features in that too otherwise it's gonna rip this line up up.

                5 years, 9 months ago

                Pogba may not be ready/fully fit in the first GWs

              2. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…

                • 7 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                Pogba and KDB probably won't start gameweek1 yeah, as I said below I'd be worried about that cheap backline! Daniels not nailed long term with a new left back coming in, Holebas I don't know about and Cedric has not yet returned to pre season!

                  5 years, 8 months ago

                  True, Hoedt is a firm CB choice, the RWB position of Cedric looks shaky

              3. Zebrahimović
                • 8 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                horrible defence, needs a cash injection there

                I was looking at this team and thinking how can you afford that midfield? Then I saw your defence.... Be wary of going that cheap at the back, none of those players are guaranteed starters anyway imo so you may be forced into an early wildcard. 🙂

                • 7 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                Good team
                I'd get Salah in personally

                • 6 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                Wouldn't go that cheap at the back, would sacrifice Alexis and Firmino and get Salah too. Good luck.

              I like to look at my team in short periods, around 4/5 GW’s at a time. In saying that how does my team look for the first 4/5 weeks.

              1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 7 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                I don't know who Masina is but I think that's a very solid starting team 🙂

                1. Little fekirs
                  • 5 Years
                  5 years, 9 months ago

                  Watford 4.5 fullback. I like their fixtures early, could change to any 4.5.

              2. SADIO SANÉ
                • 8 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                looks good - 442 is very tempting, although I'd probably get a better 4th defender if doing that

                1. Little fekirs
                  • 5 Years
                  5 years, 9 months ago

                  Yeah I want to but couldn’t find the cash, what would you recommend?

                  1. SADIO SANÉ
                    • 8 Years
                    5 years, 9 months ago

                    yeah, it's not easy - you'd probably have to downgrade Mane/Mahrez slightly and I doubt you want to do that. Hopefully a nice 4.5 option presents itself early on

              3. It’s a Knockaert
                • 6 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                Ryan isn’t good enough to be a single keeper

              5 years, 9 months ago

              Gonna throw mine in the mix as I've changed it a bit in a late tinkering session last night 🙂

              Ederson
              Robertson Luiz Bailly Coleman
              Salah Mahrez Eriksen
              Firmino Arnie King

              Bench: Hamer, Neves, Hudson-Odoi, Wan-Bisaka

              A lot of people don't seem to fancy Coleman but I'm going with the fixtures and if he doesn't perform he can be moved on to Bellerin or easily downgraded. Not fussed about a premium striker but should be able to move for one fairly easily. Bench foder subject to change.

              RMT please 🙂

              1. Little fekirs
                • 5 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                Like it, personally would want go for one of the big strikers (Kane,Aguero,Luka,Auba) but you have used the extra funds well.

                  Cheers! Not keen on Aguero or Auba yet and I think Firmino should keep pace with them for the first few weeks 🙂

                Too much money in defense for my liking. I'd downgrade one defender (Bailly/Luiz) and improve an attacker

                  I'm assuming you'd suggest upgrading Firmino?

              Nice team Spencer. Deulofeu is a risk. Good player but not convinced on him, would prefer someone like Hughes. Zaha if he moves has to go imo. Like the defence.

                If he goes to Chelsea he could be a better option as he should start on the right over Pedro in a free-scoring attacking side
