Fantasy Football Scout are pleased to announce the very first episode of Meet the Manager, where we interview Fantasy managers with a superb track record over their career.

Over the season we’ll find out from them what it takes to get a top finish in the game, explore their key strategies for success and also gain some valuable tips on tackling the current campaign.

To kick off the series I was joined earlier today by Nick, who is better known within the Fantasy Football Scout community as Triggerlips.

Over his 11-year career, he has finished in the top 1,000 an impressive four times, including 2012/13’s finish of 35th. Indeed across his last nine campaigns, he has only finished outside the top 50,000 twice.

Paying close attention to team structure and balanced distribution of funds is among the nuggets of advice that New Zealand-based Nick serves up.

He also reveals the importance of accumulating wealth early on and making sure the vast array of Fantasy advice on social media is treated with caution.

And while he is taking a patient approach with Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang this season he is “not liking the look of (Mohamed) Salah one little bit”.

The chat with Nick is available to view on YouTube here and in the embedded video below:

Is Salah > Hazard with a hit?

My opinion is that this week, probably not.

But, in general, is saving 0.3m worth a hit?

        Ooo first ive seen on here :). Tbh was worst ive seen us attacking wise for a while. Johnson looked fast and had a mix of deliveries. Seemed to lose confidence once fans started getting on players backs and impatient. Washington got little service and never bounced for him. Clarke is awful. Hendo saved us from a 2 or 3-0 defeat. Hes unreal

        Seems strange considering how good they were against Villa!
        
        Fans do get impatient rather quickly at the Lane I always find, doesn't help anyone.
        
        Yeah even last year when he was scoring, Clarke wasn't really good enough. Shame we didn't manage to get Hogan in, think he'd have fit right in.

        Yh... atmosphere was dead from KO but Norwood, Egan and Hendo were great pieces of business.
        
        Woodburn looked uninterested tonight, mcgoldrick worked hard when he came on.
        
        Think we'll see a few more changes for Sat and batter Preston hopefully :).

  Why does that mean he's tired? Although he played a lot of football in the WC.
  
  He's so important to them that Sarri wants to keep him in cotton wool for PL games. Chelsea should have more than enough for this stage of the EL.

    I'm on a) at moment - just AWB against NEW (h) looks tasty. 6 BPS from 334 minutes (4 games). Also potential for clean sheet, assist and maybe sooner or later a goal.

  For free, probably would get rid of Odoi as he isn’t even playing.

Is nobody concerned that only 4 of Kun’s 37 points have come away? He’s blanked in both away games. Not sure he’s good captain material away from home.

Max Meyer is my 5th mid in draft league.

Should I keep hold of him for future promise or just get rid, couple of players available are:

Wijnaldum
Hojbjerg
Moutinho
Hughes
Yarmolenko

Anyone stand out?

  "concern" is a strong word 😉 Had my C on Hazard until tonights CL tie, now it's back on Aguero. No idea how it'll turn out in the end but I do know that Cardiff are dreadful and City/pep will want to strike back after tonights loss.
  
  But then again so are West Ham and Hazard is being rested.. so, tough choice. but Kun is definitely very much in the mix for me

Hey everyone.
Really stuck on what to do, so would appreciate any help!

A) Mkhi -> Rich and save FT
B) Mkhi, B.Silva, Arnie -> Hazard, Fraser, Jiminez for a -4

Team is
Hennesey, Patricio
Alonso, Mendy, Robbo, Doherty, AWB
Salah, Bilva, Mkhi, Walcott, CHO
Aguero, Zaha, Arnie
2 FT, 0.6ITB

I’m a bit worried about losing Arnie. Also if going with B, I would have to play one of Doherty/Jiminez against United.

      Ive had him as my 3rd sub from start but thats been fine so far. Allows me to use the money elsewhere and means im not annoyed when someone sat in 3rd bench spot gets a few points hahaha

What’s the general consensus on Mendy lads?

Get rid now or wait and see? Lot of money to have tied up if he’s out for 2+ games and Pep’s lack of clarity on it worries me. Seems like it could be one of those injuries that goes on and on.

  Waiting personally. My bench can cover for a gw or 2 and city's fixtures are best around in next few gws.

  Agree. I'm on WC and are seriously thinking of getting rid for now (despite losing 0.3 in value). The lack of clarity make me think that it could be weeks and not days.

    If I was on WC I would absolutely lose him. Wait for more info in case there is any, but plan for not having him. That extra money could go a long way and loads of cheap def options coming alive in recent weeks

  I'm holding even if Pep says he won't play.
  Have more important issues and it would mean that AWB plays at home to Newcastle which is more than fine 🙂
  
  After that I'm most likely only transferring him out if it is confirmed that he'll be out for a longer period of time. Tonight's game (once again) showed how important he is to this city team and I wouldn't want to not have him when he does play.
  
  I'll risk a few Mendy-free games to gain the rest

    Yeah, probably doing the same. Little bit worried that I have also Mendy, Pedro and Dilva. Holebas, AWB and Billing on the bench.
    Just maybe wait and see, but dont think him to start this weekend.

        I think he will be rested next game. Read that Young was good, he could starts half of the games.

Any suggestions with this one?

Foster (Fab)
AWB Mendy Alonso (Bennett Smith)
Salah Hazard Moura Schurrle (Hudson Odoi)
Wilson Arnie Aguero

Thinking bank transfer then Salah, Arnie Schurrle to Mane, Zaha Richarlison next week. Or get Zaha in now?

Thanks!
