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?

      i have very similar lined up. Not sure about Pope though

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

      Surely worth picking up Martinez as back up gk ?

    The luckiest jammiest ML leader is 20points ahead of me SURELY he has to take a hit this week and can't fluke points with this team

    Anyone feeling Doherty (C)?

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

      Not captained a defender since the Baines era

      1. YEAH PITCH!
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        What was Baines highest price, 8m?

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

          He was never at 8, usually at 7

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

            pretty sure he was 8 or over before

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

              Nah

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

                not starting price but 99% sure he breached 8mil mark.

                will try look up

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

                  I was talking about starting price. You could be right about him going higher, but feel he usually had about 50% ownership from the start.

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

                    & you'd be wrong 🙂 8mil starting price in 11/12

                    https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2011/07/21/first-impressions/

                    1. Royal5
                      • 14 Years
                      6 years, 14 hours ago

                      Wow. Nice research! Suprised by that. Baines was quality. Remember the game he scored 2 freekicks. (Unless I'm mistaking again 😉 )

                      1. kennethrhcp
                        • 15 Years
                        6 years, 14 hours ago

                        i aint looking that up 🙂

                        i was just pretty sure he cost a lot back then, Vida 8m aswell. crazy times

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

                Him and Ivanvovic was 7.0 and that was high back then

      2. cigan
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Not sure as it's ages ago now but I think I capped Trent earlier this season and he delivered

    2. cigan
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Also ...

      A - Bergwijn + Lascelles
      B - Sarr + Ritchie/Gomez

    3. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Seriously tempted, but so many other less risky options

    4. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Sonny boi

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

        I rate Son but not sure at the moment. Wasn't very good against Man Utd, played the full 90 etc.

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

      It makes you wonder how high youd be if you had the balls to captain taa every week since gw1!

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

    On WC, looking to BB in Gameweek 33+ I think. Any thoughts? Any better options?
    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Pope (McCarthy)

    Taa Doherty Maguire (Fernandez Saiss)

    Salah Fernandes KDB Sarr (Cantwell)

    Rashford Jimenez Calvert-Lewin

    1. SHOOTER MCGINN
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      That's the GW I'm currently looking at too. Generally good fixtures except McCarthy vs City

  6. KDB4PREZ
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    A) Son&Vardy
    B) Mane/Salah&DCL

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

      A

    2. YEAH PITCH!
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A

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

      A. It's a nice set and forget for the rest of the season

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

    Bottomed

    A) DDG, Justin, Cantwell, Richarlison, Vardy
    B) Foster, Diop, Guendouzi, Mané, DCL

    XX Martin
    TAA Doherty Lascelles Holgate XX
    KDB Son Fernandes XX XX
    Jimenez Rashford XX

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

      Lots of bases covered with the core.

      Tough but I'd go for A

    2. kennethrhcp
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A

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

        Cheers guys! It's actually Hayden instead of Cantwell if that makes any difference, I just realized

        1. kennethrhcp
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 14 hours ago

          not much to me.

          maybe look at Davis from villa at 4.3 over hayden & free up the .1

  8. GuillermoDickero
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Anyone feeling like getting Foden in as a 5th mid on a WC? Feel like him and Saka have the biggest points ceilings of the below 5m mids

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

      Maybe for the last game of the season

    2. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      For a BB if you still have it

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

      Would he be a better option after the Liverpool game?

      Not because of fixtures per se, but because the others will get more rests and in turn he will get more minutes?

      Not sure he gets more than 100 mins over the next 2 games personally.

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

    As my opponent with a 60 point lead has dcl. I feel I should go for Richarlison instead.

    But which option is actually better

    A. Richarlison, kiko (2nd sub), connelly (3rd sub)

    B. Hayden (3rd sub), Aurier, DCL

    Option A allows a straight swap to Pogba / Martial.

    Defence is TAA, Doherty, lascelles, saiss

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

      go for it

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

    What's the average score this week?

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

      check fpl live

  11. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    A. Play Mount

    B. Play Ritchie (-4)

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

      A

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

      B

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

      I think you give Mount one more chance with an extra 4 points here.

    4. kennethrhcp
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A

  12. JBG
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    On FH...

    A) Martial and DCL
    Or
    B) KDB and Greenwood

    I already have Rashford and Fernandes.

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

      A

      1. JBG

        Thanks

  13. Don Kloppeone
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    RP from last page for a couple more replies

    Which option on WC? Template vs slight differential:

    A) Pope, Guendo, Rash (mainly 3-4-3)
    B) Patricio/ Dubravka, Pogba, Nketiah (mainly 3-5-2)

    XXXX, Martin
    TAA, Doherty, Lascelles, Kiko, Simpson
    Salah, KDB, Son, Bruno, XXXX
    Jimi, DCL, XXXX

    Thanks!

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

      A

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        You still have faith in Pope?

        My nervousness with Rash is that his appeal at a high price is diminished because he isn't necessarily on pens anymore.

        1. Scholes Out For Summer
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 15 hours ago

          Im still confident in Burnely and Dyche. That was the first game back for them in 3 months, away from home, against City. Not surprising they got hammered

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

          Rash and Bruno will share pens

    2. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A for sure

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Hmm - it's the template for sure but I don't know about Pope anymore looking at BUR at the moment and with nothing to play for. Also Rashford could obv be great but he is quite expensive for a fair amount of uncertainty - going for Pogba as differential "could" be gold...

        1. Scholes Out For Summer
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 15 hours ago

          See above - also Mee mentioned that they are gunning for Europe internally so take that with what you will. Also its a Dyche team so dont expect them to be relaxing their focus imo

          I personally like Pogba as an option but too many mid options currently with the two Pool players, KDB/Mahrez, Rich, Son/Berg and obviously Bruno

          Not a lot of premium strikers so easy to accommodate a spot for Rash

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

    2.1m left to upgrade this WC team - GK's and one of Saka/Greenwood?

    Martinez -- Button
    TAA -- Doherty -- Lascelles -- Holgate -- Robinson
    Mané -- KDB -- Fernandes -- Son -- Saka
    Jimenez (c) -- DCL -- Greenwood

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

      Very similar to my draft. I'd try upgrade Greenwood out of those two.

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

        Thanks.

        I was thinking maybe Foster/Pope over Martinez but not much to do with 1.4m left to upgrade Greenwood as nothing really available at 5.6m up front.

  15. Scholes Out For Summer
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Auba is a keep for the next two if without FH or WC correct?

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

      ye

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

      Definitely. Great underlying stats vs B&H and really should have netted at least one.

      I'm getting rid off him but I think he wil ldo well.

      1. Scholes Out For Summer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Yeah I would get rid if I had WC but I dont and that Norwich game looks too juicy even for Arsenal

    3. Mackie1903
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Think so. I’m on WC and very tempted to remove him though.

      1. Scholes Out For Summer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Id remove if youre on WC. Too many cheaper options that will allow you to shift money elsewhere

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

    have doherty already:
    a) boly salah
    b) aurier mane

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      I like B

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

      Prefer B but owning Aurier is like owning a box of chocolates...

  17. ooooo
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    thoughts on WC?
    Martinez
    Trent Doherty Lascelles
    Salah KDB Son Bruno
    Rashford DCL Jiminez

    Button Holgate Guendozi 3.9

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

      Fantastic front 10. GK's aren't the best (see my hypocritical post above) but not sure where you get the money from to be honest.

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

      Get vardy instead of DCL

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

    Pope or Foster?

    Cap Salah or Bruno?

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

      Both good options but I'd lean towards Foster personally.

      Both good options with Salah likely on pens with Milner injured. I'd edge it just with Salah this week as you have him and can sort of be viewed as a differential in some ways.

    2. Mackie1903
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Foster. Burnley are hanging by a thread now.

      Bruno.

      • 7 Years

      Interesting week to do it. Leave Jimi out is a risk. Jota often fails to deliver. Good otherwise.

      1. Fishy
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Jimi played 90
        Jota didn't that's the concern

  20. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Assistance please,
    A - Son + Pope
    B - Alli + Patrício

    Have Doherty already but think losing Pope will be best way to get ahead of the template. 0.1 off son and Patrício unfortunately

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      EAsy a

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

      A. Benefit of Son over Alli is bigger than Patricio > Pope. Alli hasn't played yet so might have a bit more rust.

    3. Mackie1903
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      A for sure!

    4. AD2110
      • 8 Years

      Surely can downgrade someone for 0.1m less?

  21. Firminooooo
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    WC draft. Any suggestions?

    Pope Button
    TAA Doherty Aurier Saiss Kiko
    Martial Salah KdB Son Bruno
    Jimenez Nketiah DCL

    1. FFSbet.com
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      Like it,maybe Pope > Foster and Kiko > ?

    2. Mino Raiola
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      After tonight's game I would steer clear of Burnley (Pope). Looked like they have lost all hope/spark for the Finnish of the season. 7 subs today Wich of 2 where GK and 5 have never played a game in PL.... Dire

  22. FFSbet.com
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Anyone going with Ritchie,is he nailed?

    Worried about GW26&27 played only 15&19 minutes

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 15 hours ago

      I'm so tempted but not nailed apparently

      1. FFSbet.com
        • 10 Years

        Yeah,guess i better dont go there with so many rotations

  23. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Back to my GW38 team following my woeful FH:

    Pope
    TAA Doherty Gomez
    Salah KDB Fernandes Sarr
    Jimenez Jota DCL
    Leno* Saka Alonso Ngakia

    Worth Leno + Jota => Martinez + Rashford for a -4 or good to save FT?

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

      Good team to fall back on imo.

  24. Mackie1903
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 15 hours ago

    Please rate my WC draft #99

    Martinez
    VVD, Doherty, Lascelles
    Salah, KDB, Son, Fernandes
    DCL, Rashford, Jiminez

    Martin, Kiko F., Guendouzi, Simpson

    letting go of Marez after this GW feels a bit wrong, and also would love a better GK/bench. Hmmmm...

      Almost same as mine I think. I have more dough for a better keeper and Maguire but otherwise same.

      1. Mino Raiola
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        To get a better keeper should I do

        A) VVD to Gomez
        Or
        B) Doherty to Saiss

        Or leave it?

    2. Totti

        I read it could be up to a year

        1. Mino Raiola
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 15 hours ago

          Ohhh ok, what a bummer for him!!!
          Where did u get that info?

      2. Mino Raiola
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        No, not really

      Looks good besides your concerns lol

      1. Mino Raiola
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Thanks! Would u downgrade someone to get some funds to upgrade Martinez/bench?

        1. Mr. Chimes
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 14 hours ago

          Could go Doherty > Saiss

      Think I’d sacrifice Doherty to boost my bench. Rest of team is v strong but with all the rotation just now you are gonna need some bench backup.

      1. Mino Raiola
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 15 hours ago

        Yes, u might be right. Have had Saiss for the last 5 GW and even though he's been good, Doherty just keeps on getting all the more points

    Very good scoutcast, appreciated!

    I suggest using subtitles for the next programs. Facilitates for those who are not so intimate with the English language (There are many foreigners who visit the site, like me, for example) and also for the deaf

      YouTube has a subs option , auto generated
