Due to popular demand and taking inspiration from soft furniture retailer sales across the land, we are pleased to say that Fantasy Football Scout Premium Memberships for the 2020/21 season are still available at the pre-season cost of £17.50 – but only for a little while longer.

We have given our users an extra week to sort out their subscriptions for the new campaign but this really is last-chance saloon territory, as yearly Premier Memberships will rise to the regular season price of £19.99 on September 7.

So, if you haven’t already, make sure to sign up before that point in order to secure the best-value rate.

The yearly fee of £17.50 works out at an equivalent of less than £1.50 a month as, instead of expiring on June 1 as was previously the case, these rolling annual subscriptions now cover a full 12-month period.

That’s better value than our rivals are offering for the equivalent all-access Premium Membership package.

SIGN UP FOR THE NEW SEASON HERE


If you prefer to dip your toe into the water rather than plunge right in, however, we are offering rolling monthly subscriptions for just £2.99 per month.

We’re continuing to reinvest resources into the site, building a team of talented contributors for the new season (from all of our Career Hall of Fame top three to the returning Mark Sutherns) and working on an exciting new design for the Premium Members Area, complete with new tools and features.

We’re also dishing out £2,500-worth of prizes in the 2020/21 campaign – more details of that available here.

Our video below runs down just some of the benefits that subscribers will enjoy in 2020/21 and previews what you can expect the Premium Members Area to look like after its makeover:



WHAT DO I GET FOR MY MONEY?

Well, you’ll be joining legions of other Fantasy managers by signing up, including former Fantasy Premier League winners Adam Levy, Simon March and Tom Fenley.

Thousands upon thousands of FPL bosses take advantage of our subscriptions and sign up every year, using the stats and tools to aid their Gameweek planning.

PRO PUNDIT ARTICLES

You’ll get exclusive content from some of the best Fantasy managers in the business, including Hall of Fame top three Fábio Borges, Stephen Harrap and Darren Wiles, ex-champion Simon March, five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman, three-time top 200 finisher Lateriser and six-time top 5k finisher Zophar.

If that wasn’t enough, Fantasy Football Scout’s founding father, Mark Sutherns, is returning to the site to supply articles and video appearances throughout the season. Again, only Premium Members will get unrestricted access to Mark’s content.

RATE MY TEAM AND PROJECTIONS

Our Projections and Rate My Team tools are both live for the new season, so you can head over there now to start building your teams ahead of 2020/21 and see how many points our algorithm thinks you’ll score.

These features were both refined last year, with RMT’s Professor – aka Chris Atkinson – elaborating on the changes in a Hot Topic.

SEASON TICKER

Also live for the new season is our Season Ticker.

Premium Members can sort by fixture difficulty and find out which teams’ matches rotate well.

Disagree with the Fantasy Football Scout difficulty ratings? Add you own to customise your experience.

FLAT-TRACK BULLY TOOL

Our Flat-Track Bully tool was a new addition last season, with subscribers now able to identify Fantasy assets with good records against specific clubs.

This will help you pinpoint players who perhaps perform better against weaker opposition and even those who thrive against the top teams, like Raúl Jiménez famously did in 2018/19.

HEAD-TO-HEAD COMPARISONS

Compare both teams and players head to head, with over 100 key statistics to study side by side.

PLAYER AND TEAM STATS

There are hundreds upon hundreds of player and team statistics available, which can help guide your Fantasy transfer decisions.

MATCH ANALYSIS

Analysis of every Premier League match (going back to 2011/12!), together with charts which plot average positions and our collection of heatmaps for touches, shots and chances created, among other statistics.

CUSTOM STATS TABLES

Premium Members can also create custom tables based on the data available and share them with other subscribers.

Perhaps the most famous of these is Joe’s Goals Imminent table, which looks to predict which underperforming assets will find the net next.

TESTIMONIES

2018/19 Fantasy Premier League champion Adam Levy was a paid-up Premium Member of our site and he discussed what tools of ours he finds most useful in an interview after his triumph.

In previous seasons we’ve helped FPL winners Tom Fenley and Simon March, while in 2015/16 we were thrilled to see Ed Masters – the winner of that year’s Members’ League – finish third in the overall rankings.

In 2017/18, Paul Gee went one better. He won our Members’ League and finished second, losing out to champion Yusuf Sheikh by just eight points.


Be sure to check out all the other benefits of signing up as a Premium Member here. A full FAQ on our Premium Members’ Area is also available here.

If you’ve any feedback or suggestions of content that you’d like to see added to the Premium Members’ Area, then please feel free to drop us a line at support@fantasyfootballscout.co.uk.

    I’ve been playing (badly) for 8 seasons and no matter what I try. Always seem to start slow then claw back rank. Finished ~25k last year, but was outside too million until near Christmas...

    For those who seem to get off to a flier. What’s your main tips?

    1. Back2Basics
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A balance of high ownership and low ownership for me. I tend to start better than I finish and I think that is down to taking the right risks early and not capitalising on form players during the season.

      Pick the high ownership that you think are essential and then find 2 or 3 low ownership (below 10%) that you think have a chance to bang. If you are right you'll climb, if not it shouldn't kill your OR too much early on.

    RMT guys. Thx

    McCarthy
    VVD Davies Vinagre
    Salah(C) Auba Pulisic* Soucek
    Kane Mitro Ings

    Nyland Anguissa Dallas Johnson

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Pretty decent.

      Anguissa Dallas Johnson sounds like an actress.

      1. AzzaroMax99
        6 years, 1 month ago

        lol

    2. Mayor of Flair
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Pulisic will be a great option when he's fit

  3. Elskied
    6 years, 1 month ago

    RMT Please. Planning for the first 5-6 game weeks initially. Leeds players come in against teams: Fulham at home, Sheff U away, Wolves at home, Villa away.
    Marial coming in for GW2 against Palace
    Werner for GW3 against WestBrom
    Jimi for GW 4 against Fulham,

    Ryan
    Vinagre Doherty Tierney
    Perez Armstrong Saka Auba Salah
    Ings Vardy

    Button Rodrigo Ayling Dallas

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Rodrigo a bit dear to bench; your 3 mid price mids make it a bit difficult to move things around.

  4. Mayor of Flair
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Best value defender in the game?

    Lindelof

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Good spot, certainly in comparison to other MU defs.

    2. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe, if he was 4.5

    3. Andy_Social
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Still Vinagre.

  5. the dom 1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    What is happening with Aurier?

    Is he going or staying at Spurs?

    1. Eleven Hag
      6 years, 1 month ago

      We should get him, atleast he can cross which something AWB cant

      1. Simon69
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Too early to be reading woeful opinions.

    2. Mayor of Flair
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Think he's going to Milan or somewhere

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        so its still on the cards then

        1. Mayor of Flair
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Suppose they've sold one RB (KWP) and bought one RB (Doherty) so it's possible Aurier and Doherty will comete for the position.

          They got Doherty for a great price so maybe not as much pressure on Jose to start him.

    3. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Milan rumour been going on for a while and presumably he is only the back up now even if he stays.

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        who's 1st choice then? Sanchez?

        1. the vanisher
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Doherty obviously

          1. the dom 1
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Lol - forgot about the Doherty signing, of course hahahaha

        2. Fulchester's New Centr…
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Doc, Dier, Toby A, Davies

          I'd have thought

        3. mcginnntonic
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 1 month ago

          doherty lol

          1. the dom 1
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            6 years, 1 month ago

            sorry lads, having a moment lol, of course Doherty.

            1. Steve The Spud
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              6 years, 1 month ago

              No club in their right mind will sign up so will be off to Italy soon

  6. Differential C (Mark)
    6 years, 1 month ago

    https://twitter.com/ScotlandStewart/status/1301452437761515520?s=19

    Soucek got into contact with a COVID positive individual. Quarantine and will miss upcoming National Team games.

    1. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Less than 2 weeks before GW1 so he will miss the start of the season then?

      1. Differential C (Mark)
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Reckons thats the case, await official confirmation.

        1. Brimble82
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I believe that isolation is just 7days with a test.
          If the test comes back negative, then it's back to normal.
          Obviously if it comes back positive it's 14days (or more if symptoms develop)

          Either way... not ideal.

          1. Andy_Social
            6 years, 1 month ago

            So best case scenario is he misses the games and returns lacking match fitness.

            1. Silecro
              6 years, 1 month ago

              I dont want West Ham players with full fitness and 100% match sharpness, let alone lacking it

            2. Brimble82
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Yep!
              And with the fixtures GW2-7 (arguably 11) he probably isn't worth the extra £0.5m now!

    2. Mayor of Flair
      6 years, 1 month ago

      This is a hand grenade

    3. Andy_Social
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Oohhhhh, so will miss the only decent fixture in the first 2 months? See ya Souey!

  7. El Magico5
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Soucek in quarentine, cat amongst the pigeons

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      F********k, ridiculously this breaks my whole team.

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Welcome Armstrong back into my team lol

  8. Warby84
    6 years, 1 month ago

    McCarthy (Steer)
    Tierney Doherty Trent Vinagre (Mitchell)
    Salah Son Aubameyang Soucek (Bissouma)
    Werner Mitrovic (Davis)

    Tempted to roll a transfer GW1 but also have a temptation to go with Bruno and bench, but personally I think Son could start off well.

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looks like Soucek is out so back to the drawing board I'm afraid.

      1. Warby84
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Probably ASM and downgrade Tierney

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Or Ritchie and carry on as before

          1. Andy_Social
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Toon trying to flog him. For me, a 4.5 and keep the change.

            1. Fulchester's New Centr…
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Thanks. Maybe I'll bump up a defender.

          2. Warby84
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Ritchie might be off to Bournemouth in Wilson deal?

            1. Fulchester's New Centr…
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Had seen this actually.
              NUFC have no money so can only really get anyone in with a swap, not sure how keen Bourn are though.

      2. Werner Bremen
        6 years, 1 month ago

        What's wrong with him?

        1. Andy_Social
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Got breathed on by a covid carrier and gone into quarantine.

  9. bigbadbony
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Mccarthy, 4.0
    Trent,davies,vinagre,kwp,Mitchell
    Salah,ali,aub,Armstrong,soucek
    Warner,martial,brewster

    Please rate my team.
    Aub will become kdb allowing 1 million to be spent upgrading ali or Armstrong if needs be.

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looks ok. Assuming Kev will come in GW3 not 2.

    2. Alchim1sT
      6 years, 1 month ago

      almost a copy of my team 😉
      seems good to go

  10. Werner Bremen
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A) 4-4-2 with Son and 4,5 DEF

    B 3-4-3 with Greenwood and Mitro

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B if Greenwood locked

    2. Lukakus Unit
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I like A better.

  11. kime67
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Im starting to think we need a really strong bench

    1. Andy'81
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Give me an extra 3-4 million and I'll get one....

  12. CL4PTRAP
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Can I change my monthly subscription to access the annual discount in members area? Thanks

  13. Amey
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Soucek in quarantine.
    Just stop worrying about actual drafts now.

    No use ! 😕

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You know how at the end of the year, there is always a possible zombie team that would have won the whole thing.

      Guess that might not happen this year.

      1. Amey
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah ...

      2. Rogue Todd
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Might be actual zombies soon the way everything is going

        1. Amey
          6 years, 1 month ago

          😆

    2. The 12th Man
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Guess having 15 nailed starters is going to be key this season.
      News Like this popping up during the season Could be a killer to a team with non playing bench players.

      1. Amey
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yup
        All we need is a 4.5m striker starting 😀

      2. Andy_Social
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Although covid doesn't recognised 'nailed' players!

    3. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Ouch, he was my messi placeholder

      1. Amey
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Messi will have to prove himself .... 😉

        1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 1 month ago

          He would just be fodder to start with, would look to move to Harrison Reed after a few weeks

  14. hewittj1
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Vardy + Robertson vs Werner + TAA?

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No contest. B

    2. EgyptianKing
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B

  15. Lukakus Unit
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone else planning on only holding Salah for a week?

    I think he'll haul at Leeds (at home), but his away form is patchy and he plays 3 out of the next 4 away (including 2 games vs Arsenal and Chelsea). Hasn't looked good in pre-season either.

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I certainly am

    2. Amey
      6 years, 1 month ago

      😮

    3. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I am thinking this and he actually looked so poor in CS I may start without him from week 1 and go double defence with TAA/Robbo- allows far stronger rounded attack and playing bench to cover COVID absences that might happen.

    4. It's a Wookie
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Yes, shipping him for Bruno in Week 2 and then looking at getting him back in for the Villa game. Of course planned transfers never go to plan though!

  16. Warby84
    6 years, 1 month ago

    With Soucek news.. Will replace with Ward-Prowse

    A. Move Doherty to 5m
    B. Tierney to a 4.5m

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe A to another Spurs def? Would allow you to see how attacking Doc will be and maybe get him in later.

      1. Warby84
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yep, Davies over dier?

        1. Fulchester's New Centr…
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Davies slightly more threat, but it looks like Dier might actually be Jose's secret love child so probably him.

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A to Dier

  17. Miguel Sanchez
    6 years, 1 month ago

    This GW1 BB just got a whole lot tougher, Soucek with key to it.

    1. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It is the FPL gods sending you a sign Miguel.

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Haha, only makes me more determined to get it played early doors as it could be a nightmare later on in the season getting 15 players all out at the same time.

        1. Hairy Potter
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I got my highest ever GW score with a BB during a DGW and Salah who was taking up a chunk of my budget didn't play.

          For me the joy in a BB is getting points of cheap DGW players that you normally wouldn't punt on. Having more team value later in the season also helps.

  18. GENERATION X
    6 years, 1 month ago

    343 it is then.

  19. Ser Davos
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Have a strong bench...

    Soucek is our bench!

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 1 month ago

      The hardest player to replace

  20. UnluckyXI
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Not a lot of love for Perez at Leicester, will he struggle for game time?

  21. Brosstan
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Rats like Pique, mediocre player who's been riding on the coat tails of xavi, Iniesta, messi his entire career, looking to leave the sinking ship now.

    'If a change of personell is needed, I'll be the first to leave'. Trying to make himself out as some kind of martyr when he's just looking to find a better team now that the going is tough. Lol @ Barca

  22. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Soucek 🙁

    You were supposed to be the chosen one

    1. OPTA FPL
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Never fall to this hype trap

      1. Amey
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Like he flopped in 2 GW's ?

        I mean everyone can get quarantine upcoming season

    2. Andy_Social
      6 years, 1 month ago

      That'll be Messi going into quarantine 3 days after arriving at City with half the FPLers having sp*nked their wildcards!

  23. Jdpz
    6 years, 1 month ago

    McCarthy
    Gomez, Dier, Mitchell
    Salah(C), Auba, Son, Soucek
    Vardy, Werner, Mitrović

    bench: Nyland, Bissouma, Lascelles, Vinagre

    Isn't the defense too weak?

  24. ElliotJHP
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Soucek has tested negatively and will be tested again, he was just in close contact with someone who has tested positive.

    It's all the drama Mick, I love it.

  25. CelticBhoy1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Who's better value Greenwood or Bruno?

    1. Rogue Todd
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Greenwood if nailed, but Bruno is good value too.

  26. SADIO SANÉ
    6 years, 1 month ago

    So annoying when the sheep on here get a reason not to pick someone that probably would have scored a bunch of 2-pointers 🙁 Werner will probably pull his groin now too

    1. Rogue Todd
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Many groin-pulling experts on here at any given time.

      1. Fulchester's New Centr…
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Too much free time when you work from home.

    2. Amey
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Only loss of 2 points then for Werner 😉

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Getting Tony M?

  27. aapoman
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Greenwood and Adams
    or
    ASM and Ings

  28. Roy Rovers
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Not moved much from this formation recently.....Change anything??

    0.5ITB for Ings > Martial

    McCarthy Steer
    TAA Taylor Justin Vinagre Targett
    Aubameyang Salah Greenwood Armstrong Soucek
    Kane Ings (Brewster or Wickham)

  29. Winter_is_coming
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Is it sensible to downgrade Son to Alli if it allow to upgrade Mitro to DCL?

    1. Amey
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Son to Alli is a downgrade.
      Mitro to DCL is an upgrade ?
      I'm not sure about that ....

    2. Fulchester's New Centr…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      What Amey said

    3. Old Man
