Whether you have an abundance of Fantasy Premier League chips or none remaining, this latest episode of the Scoutcast has got you covered.

Joe is joined by Lateriser and Andy to look ahead to Gameweek 31+ and beyond, with a close eye on chip strategy.

Lateriser is among the many FPL managers to take advantage of unlimited transfers in Gameweek 30+ and use their Bench Boost chip. With his Wildcard now in play, he reveals the players in his thinking and how best to navigate the weeks ahead.

Meanwhile, Joe only has a Bench Boost to fall back on. Our trio looks at the best Gameweeks to consider using not only this chip, but other remaining chips too.

Andy has used all his chips but after tinkering during lockdown with his team, he feels he is in good shape to match his chip-happy rivals.

Among the issues they discuss are what to do with Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.0m), who blanked in his last two run-outs but has two good fixtures ahead and enticing underlying stats too.

Sticking with the Gunners, there are replacement goalkeepers to mull over, after Bernd Leno (£5.0m) suffered a nasty knock against Brighton at the weekend.

The best Liverpool assets, whether Manchester City can be swerved temporarily and the unlikely appeal of Newcastle United are also in the mix.

In this packed 75-minute show, the Scoutcasters also find time to look at the best clean sheet prospects. Lateriser takes his turn to pick a differential and there are Gameweek 31+ squads to reveal.

Who will they captain and which players can help propel them up the rankings?

    about to rage transfer half of my team out for a 20 point hit - what are the odds that it might pay off?!

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      given the amount of people on WC/FH, extremely low

  2. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Simple question, who scores better this GW?

    A) Vardy

    B) DCL

    1. George Agdgdgwngo
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      B

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      B - got to back DCL against Nor

  3. Sleivspark
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    I am contemplating a WC team without Mane/Salah due to the fact that games are coming quick and we do expect a lot of rotation...

    Atm I am on this;

    Ederson / Martinez

    TAA / AWB / Ritchie / Aurier / Doherty

    KDB / Son / Bruno / Traore / Saka

    Jesus / Rashford / Jiminez

    Thoughts ?

    1. George Agdgdgwngo
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      How do u pick a front 7?

      1. The Count of Monte Cristo
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Ask the Mrs!

        Good side!

      2. Sleivspark
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        I expect rotation will sort it 😛 in any case Saka will most likely be on the bench...also depending on fixtures and I allow myself some choice...which ofc also can backfire 😛

        ...back to tinkering... wondering how serious aguero injury is...

    2. wantsharptv
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Best team I've seen and looks well over budget

  4. Totti
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    seems that all the teams are similar 🙂
    so the question is who are the differentials on wildcard?

    1. Liastro ⭐️
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Pogba, Richarlison

      1. Totti
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        richarlison over son?

    2. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      DDG

      1. Totti
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        i'm trying to get him in but too expensive

    3. George Agdgdgwngo
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Great question, this is what I’m trying to work out.

      Richarlison, Alonso, vardy

      1. Totti
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        vardy over rashford?

    4. jason_ni
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      its all the same pool of players are flavour of the week, just trying to fit them all in. I think im going to risk it, drop KDB, keep mahrez and see how that goes!

      1. Totti
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        very risky

        1. jason_ni
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 15 hours ago

          Possibly yeah, dropping him allows me to get DCL in for Nketiah, so there is good potential upside. All a bit of a risk at this point.

    5. The Wizard of Ozil
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Saint-max for the next two and Vardy seems to be a slight differential on here too

    6. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Pogba, Alli, Ings, Pulisic, Jesus (now that Aguero is out)

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Oh yeah ASM, Mahrez and Barnes too I guess.

        Mahrez is really interesting. 141 points is more points than Rashford and he's played fewer minutes too. He's the 4th highest scoring mid.

        1. Totti
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 15 hours ago

          but chelsea and liverpool the coming too fixture, too harsh

          1. Totti
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 15 hours ago

            two fixtures*

            1. Camzy
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              6 years, 15 hours ago

              Sure. But after that the fixtures are amazing. Will be looking to pick him up.

              1. Totti
                • 9 Years
                6 years, 15 hours ago

                may be after those fixtures yes

    7. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      There are a few out there for sure, I’d say teams are looking more diverse.

    8. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Def Ritchie Alonso
      Mid Pogba Richar
      Forward possibly Jesus Kane

    9. Snevitz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Patricio, Alonso and Mahrez.
      Not owning Salah or Mane.

    10. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      We as a community have got the best picks. We together are the differential. 🙂

  5. jason_ni
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    2nd guessing having Pope on WC.

    Will be playing 3-4-3, with
    TAA - Doh - Maguire, Lasc as backup defender.

    Should I drop Kiko Femina to 3.9 fodder, and get in Rui Pat for wolves double up, or any other keeper up to 5.2?

    1. KagKagKag
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      I would do DDG if you can stretch to 5.3, otherwise Pope should be fine IMO.

      1. FPL_DON
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Why DDG over Patricio?

  6. KagKagKag
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    A. Mane + Rashford
    B. Martial + Auba

    1. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A and it's not even close

    2. jason_ni
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Yeah, A 110% on that one.

    3. Starky22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A

    4. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A - Auba is a disease.

  7. FplBerg
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Appreciate your thoughts for my FH...

    A) Martinez, Holgate, Son
    B) Dubravka, Aurier, Richarlison

    ___
    TAA, Doherty, ___
    KdB, Mane, Bruno, Martial, ___
    Jiminez, DCL
    (bench=fodder)

    1. The Sociologist
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      B)

  8. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    A) Patricio, Justin, Richarlison, Vardy
    B) Foster/Pope, Masina, Mané, DCL

    1. The Sociologist
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      a), tough call though.

  9. Un De Sceaux
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Currently 300K. This team is going to get me into the top 1K by the end of the season. Opinions?

    Patricio, Martin
    Saiss, Lascelles, Holgate, Coady, Maguire
    Foden, Bergwijn, Fernandes, Alli, KDB
    Rashford, DCL, Kane

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Too many differentials imho. Three Spurs? They are managed by Mou you know?

      1. Un De Sceaux
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Good fixtures, fairly nailed to start. My only regret is I couldn't have 4.

        1. FPL_DON
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 15 hours ago

          love this attitude

    2. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Get Alli to Son somehow but yeah I like it, you only live once.

      1. Un De Sceaux
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        I have .7 in the bank and was looking to do that.

    3. SomewhatPleasing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Getting on for 200 points behind?

      So yes, team probably needs to be as diff as that.

  10. Silecro
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Kiko best 4. 2 def option?

    1. The Sociologist
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Think so.

  11. Starky22
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    WC GTG?
    Martínez
    Doherty Saiss TAA (Lascelles, 4.0)
    Martial KDB Son Mane Bruno
    DCL Jimmy (Greenwood)

    0.0 Itb

  12. The Sociologist
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Who to move for this week for a Bench Boost?

    Pope / McCarthy
    TAA / Saïss / Maguire / Lascelles / Egan
    Salah / KDB/ Fernandes / Sarr / Saka
    Vardy / Jiménez / DCL

    Thinking either Egan > Doherty, or Sarr > Son. Thoughts on which move to prioritise? 3.4 ITB.

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Egan > Doherty. Sarr is at least going to play.

    2. FPL Theorist
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      The former

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Jesus just became an option if aguero is out for the season

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Jesus

    2. Mr. O'Connell
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      1 week too late

    3. FPL Theorist
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      I bet Pep has some other option we didn't think of.

    4. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      When will we know?

  14. FPL Pillars
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Is a bench of:

    Lacelles Guendouzi and Simpson

    Asking for a bit of trouble?

    My XI are pretty nailed one, am very happy with them. Cheers

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Too risky imo. Have at least 2 playing subs

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        There are two playing subs there?

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Should get by. Same as mine but I have the more nailed McCarthy instead of Guendouzi for 4.3

  15. Kno
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Striker woes, the tinkering intensifies

    A: jimmy and ings
    B: rash and jota

    1. Starky22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A

  16. Moxon
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Who is everyone's 5th mid?

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Saka

    2. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Saka and McGinn rotating

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Saka, 343 benchfodder.

    4. Krafty Werks
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Guendouzi

    5. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Will be choosing between Guendozi +0.9 and Foden, not sure yet

    6. FPL_DON
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Guendozi, bargain

  17. Kuzser
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    What pair would you go for:
    1)Vardy and Martial
    2)Rashford and Richarlison

    Already have Bruno and DcL

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Tough one but I'd fancy going for Vardy - really has something to play for as a team and Golden Boot too

    2. George Agdgdgwngo
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      2 knowing that rich can easily become Pogba or martial

  18. Shardlow
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Best 4.0m DEF?

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Robinson for the next few. Probably good enough for a 5th defender / enabler

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Slim pickings, Ngakia or Robinson.

      1. Shardlow
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Thanks, stuck between these two. At least I know I am not missing anyone to consider!

    3. Krafty Werks
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Rob

    4. Scratch
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Ngakia if he signs the contract

    5. Shardlow
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Thanks all, close but gone for Ngakia in the hope he is playing 3+ GW time

  19. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    DCL or Pukki?

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      DCL for me. Saw a stat that Pukki only has 1 goal from open play since December which surprised me.

    2. Krafty Werks
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      DCL

    3. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      DCL 100%

    4. Feed tha Sheep
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      DCL

  20. Blue Gaffer
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Which is best?

    1. Foden & Ings
    2. Martial & Nkietah

  21. Bobby
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Pope
    Dunk, TAA, lascelles,
    Salah, Fernandes, grealish, kdb
    Jimmie, ings, auba

    Do I need to do anything here?

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Good side - I like that you're sticking with Auba.

      Don't like Dunk pick when you can go with Saiss from Wolves at a cheaper price.

      1. Bobby
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        This is my exact side from march as I forget the transfer window was at five! Aside from my cap being Salah and vice auba I dodged a cannon ball this week!

  22. Slim25
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Thoughts on this Wc team?

    Foster (Button)
    TAA, Doherty, Ritchie (Aurier, Ngakia)
    Bruno, Mane, Son, Rich, Martial
    DCL, Jimi (Nketiah)

    Is Auba a huge miss from this team or should I have enough cover?

    Cheers

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Hm no city players mate?

      1. Slim25
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Looking at getting KDB back in from Gwk 33+

        Just think that Utd, Spurs & Everton have more favourable fixtures.

  23. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Mount or Barnes? Mount looked lively but Lampart rotating might be terribly annoying

    1. Vazza
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      I had Mount but on the basis that his game was on Sunday (against AVL) he never delivered 🙁

      1. Vazza
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        ^ on FH

  24. Mr. Chimes
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    How's my WC? With 0.5itb

    Pope (Button)
    TAA Doherty Saiss (Lascelles, J. Robinson)
    Bruno Mahrez KDB Salah (Saka)
    Jiminez Ings DCL

    Only concern is Pep Roulette of course with Mahrez having started both games in DGW

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Liking this. You don't care not having Rashford or Vardy?

      1. Mr. Chimes
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Well I was playing around with fitting Rashford in - really wanted him - but then I would have to drop Doherty and I'm looking at TAA Saiss Lascelles/Robinson/4.5mil as my defense. Not sure how I feel about that

        1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 15 hours ago

          Hmm yea, I hate rotating like that too. Not sure where to invest more.

  25. yanky
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    trying 4-3-3 for the run in, thoughts?

    Alisson (Martinez)
    TAA Aurier Doherty WanBis (Lascelles)
    Mane Son Fernandes (Saka Hayden)
    Rashford Jimenez DCL

    .1m off from mane to salah, will do mane to sterling gw34 when citys fixtures turn

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Not keen on 4 at the back but this team looks solid GL ( no kdb could hurt )

      1. yanky
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        agreed rolling the dice, everyone has kdb, time to be different, high risk though absolutely. thanks mate!

  26. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Just enjoying that moment where I am so happy with my wc before it all goes to sh*t when they actually start to play 🙂

    Gl all

    1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      true

      It's not the fault of your superb WC, I would blame the players not living up to it. 😀

    Just reluctantly sold my only ever-present this season KDB. Chasing in ML and seems he'll only start every other match. But with that same logic, Foden really looks a shout

      Isn't Kdb gonna play every game?

        No? their remaining PL games will be dead rubbers. They're still in fa cup and won't want to overplay him with CL in mind further down the line.

      Are you playing your WC this week?

        Yep initially planned to FH this week, but the WC team I want in GW33 is almost the same as it is this week.. Will have the FH handy for the final day, or if some games get delayed from players popping for covid.

          Yup, was asking because we had identical BB teams. I also opted for my WC this week. FH will be handy later on.

      I'm in the same situation but I've kept. Rested today so liekly to start with Chelsea.

      Pep will make sure they qualify for CL before really giving him more rests I think. Especially with 2 tough games to come. Get 4 points and that'll be enough.

        Should say secure 2nd * they will obvs get top 4

      The attack is a bit different. If you’re chasing, I like it

    With both available - would you FH or WC this week?

    1. elchilangles
      • 7 Years

      I just took a 20 point hit so I'd definitely have gone WC if available!

      Looking at something like this now

      Patricio (Martin)
      TAA Doherty Holgate/Lascelles/Kiko
      Salah KDB Fernandes Bergwijn (Saka)
      Rashford Jimenez DCL
