Meet the Manager is back, as Joe once again catches up with a Fantasy Premier League manager with an outstanding track record of success.

This time Joe meets Graeme Sumner, who is known by many in the Fantasy Football Scout community as Gregor.

With six top 10,000 finishes, including three within the top 1,000, Graeme is no stranger to ending a season strongly.

He also has experience of being within a whisker of winning FPL, after ending 2016/17 in 29th spot.

During this latest Meet the Manager chat, Graeme reveals his strategies for success. This includes being aggressive in pursuit of a good captaincy option, especially low-owned assets. With hat-trick heroes Santi Cazorla and Yaya Toure among his most successful captaincies in the past, Joe is obviously keen to find out who Graeme plans to hand the armband to in the coming weeks.

Joe discovers the importance of the eye test for Graeme, as well as his tactics for avoiding the growing ‘noise’ on social media and elsewhere as millions more join FPL each year.

Finally, Graeme reveals his Gameweek 5 plans, with more low-owned gems in his thought as he targets another strong finish in his already stellar career.

This chat is available as a video and podcast below. The previous Meet the Manager videos can be found here.

      Man City

  2. tc93
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Ings + Barnes (or Zaha) —> Son + Wilson (or Maupay if I take out Zaha) for a -4?

    Rest of team:
    Martinez
    TAA / KWP / Lamptey
    Salah / KDB / Zaha / Barnes
    Jiminez / DCL / Ings

    Bench: Button, Taylor, Bissouma, Michell

    1. Firmino
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Looks good. Prefer Maupay.

    2. mrelpea
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I like it! Wilson is definitely coming into my team for GW 7 and I’m wondering whether to take a -4 this week to bring in son for a few games as they have great fixtures

    3. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      None of those.

      Highly reactionary transfers.

      Zaha > Grealish.

    1. badhombres
      6 years, 13 days ago

      looks great. would you consider Robbo + Soucek -> Saiss + Grealish / Barnes?

      1. Firmino
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Good shout, I have my eye on

        Kane -> Wilson/Antonio
        Soucek/Bissouma -> Chelsea mid

        So my original team fits better to that plan.

  4. Dexters Laboratory
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Martinez Forster
    Semendo Saiss James Lamptey
    Salah KDB Son Havertz Foden
    DCL Jiminez Brewster

    2FT

    A) Havertz, Foden, Jiminez - Kane, Grealish/Rod, Soucek
    B) KDB, Foden, Brewster - Kane, Grealish/Rod, Bisso
    C) Havertz - Grealish, Foden - Rod next GW

    Thoughts much appreciated!

    1. Klopp it
      6 years, 13 days ago

      B

    3. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      B. Havertz looked good in international and could well become the Chelsea go to option soon imo

    4. Saka_me_sideways
      6 years, 13 days ago

      All of those move could bite you in the ass!
      Brewster I’d keep just to see how he gets on against Fulham.
      I’d maybe just get rid of one of the wolves double up in defence and then reassess next gw with 2FT again.

    5. Dexters Laboratory
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Could just do KDB & Brewster to Kane and Bisso. Save the -4. Yeah appreciate that the year we're having this could definitely backfire but thinking with Aguero/Vardy around moving from a 352 to a 343 could be the way to go. Hopefully look at bringing in Antonio for Jiminez and getting in Robertson then GW8

  5. Brosstan
    6 years, 13 days ago

    So who is Gregor capping?

  6. Klopp it
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Iv got two free transfers, and I'm thanking on doing these moves, for a - 12

    Shaw to coleman
    Sterling to kdb
    James Rodriguez to pulisic
    Greenwood to jorginho
    Werner to kane

    1. Firmino
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Maybe just the last teo

      1. Firmino
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Two

        1. Klopp it
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Yea that might be wiser thank u

        This

  7. Miguel Sanchez
    6 years, 13 days ago

    If City have a CF fit for next GW captain?

    A) Son (WHU)
    B) KDB (ARS)

    1. Karan_G14
      6 years, 13 days ago

      B but Pep will never tell us if one of them is going to play.

      1. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Agree and suddenly they’ll be a massive scramble to put city back in!

    2. Make United Great Again
      6 years, 13 days ago

      A

      Arsenal aren’t that bad defensively under Arteta in the big games

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        6 years, 13 days ago

        West Ham markedly improved this season too - fewest big chances conceded.

        Think this decision will go right to the wire

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Thinking exactly that and continuing with KDB + Sterling with no Son for this GW.

  8. jam sandwich
    6 years, 13 days ago

    RMWCT vFriday

    Martinez - Forster
    Chilwell - Lamptey - Ayling - KWP - Mitchell
    Salah - KdB - Son - Rodriguez- Trossard
    Kane - DCL - Watkins

    1. Hotdogs for Tea
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Great but bench headache

    2. Firmino
      6 years, 13 days ago

      How can u afford this?

      1. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Defence?

        1. Firmino
          6 years, 13 days ago

          I have almost the same team and have 0.0ITB. Differences:

          Robbo vs. KWP -2.5
          Soucek vs. Rodriguez +2.5
          Bissouma vs. Trossard +1.5
          Maupay vs. Watkins -0.5

          1mil short

      2. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 13 days ago

        No Pool D

    3. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Downgrade one of Trossard and Watkins and use the MITB to strengthen the D.

    4. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I would get Soucek over Trossard and spend in defence.

  9. Straya
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Ayling or Dallas?

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Ayling

      1. Firmino
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Why? Dallas plays as an advanced midfielder at times.

        1. Eat my goal!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Based on the chances he had from the games I watched

    2. Weeb Kakashi
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Dallas. I saw Dallas much more advanced than Ayling majority of the times. Based on that.

    3. D_R_S_PORT_S
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Both equally good, Dallas with small margin for me.

      1. Straya
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Cheers all

        1. Shineonme
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Ayling for ne

    4. aapoman
      6 years, 13 days ago

      It's a fifty-fifty. I've gone with Ayling

    5. Party time
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I have gone with both 😆 but Dallas edges it for me

      1. Straya
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Could go either way but Dallas also edges it using the FFS H2H comparison tool...

  10. Samir16

    Martinez/ McCarthy
    TAA, chilwell, saiss, castagne, mitchell
    rodriguez, salah, son, klich, romeu
    maupay, werner, DCL

    0 FT, 1mil in bank.

    worth taking point hit on moving werner out and for whom?
    any suggested transfers welcome

    1. Zrinkec
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Your defense is too good xD

      1. Samir16
        6 years, 13 days ago

        not the best season to have a strong defence lmao. I'm strongly considering massive downgrade from TAA to maybe a 4.5 and use the 3+1 = 4mil in bank to upgrade werner to kane this week and next week FT on a klich to pulisic upgrade. (-8 hit tho for this week)

        thanks

    2. Kip
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Looks great, If “set and forget” for long period i’d opt for Antonio over maupay or Wilson

      1. Chelsea91
        6 years, 13 days ago

        thanks , will change Maupay to Antonio based on the fixtures.

        1. Gentle_Turks
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Antonio has the worse fixtures out of the two.

    3. Stormbringer22

      Excellent.

    4. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Nice team, but horrible bench. One doesn't play and one likely not to either soon.

      1. Chelsea91
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Will monitor on the team, if needed downgrade and upgrade bench, I think for now it is okay.

      Fancy one villa mid over trossard / rodriguez, either grealish or mcginn/barkley

    2. Kip

      Looks great

    3. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Looks good! Love the power combo of Kane + Son. Shame you can't get Trossard to be a Grealish but I wouldn't substitute any other player to facilitate this.

  13. De Gea is GOAT
    6 years, 13 days ago

    What would you change about this team guys (apart from defence upgrade)? Tempted to hold FT but not having Son is giving me anxiety. Thank you all

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I don't think your defence needs an "upgrade" as such. I would focus your FTs up front and in midfield

  14. Kip
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Triple pool def forced my hand.. WC it is. How would you fill these last 2 slots?

    Martinez Steer
    Robbo Chilwell Cresswell Mitchell XXXX
    KDB Salah Son Hamez Grealish
    DCL Brewster XXXX

    11mil available:

    A) Ayling (4.5) + Maupay (6.5)
    B) KWP (4.5) + Maupay (6.5)
    C) Lamptey (4.7) + Antonio (6.3)

    1. Samir16
      6 years, 13 days ago

      for the next 3 fixtures maupay>wilson and leeds overall looking better than SOU so from that pov A looks good. lamptey and antonio definitely more in form but siding with good fixtures, team in form (leeds for ayling) and penalty taker (maupay) makes more sense to me

      1. Samir16
        6 years, 13 days ago

        wait i meant antonio not wilson my bad

        for the next 3 fixtures maupay>antonio and leeds overall looking better than SOU so from that pov A looks good. lamptey and antonio definitely more in form but siding with good fixtures, team in form (leeds for ayling) and penalty taker (maupay) makes more sense to me

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      D. Ayling/Dallas + Antonio

      C is also good, I have Lamptey but he keeps getting himself injured in games which can be quite frustrating.

      Don't kneejerk badly enough to get Cresswell...

      Look at their next 3 fixtures of doom in tot liv MCI.

      1. Kip
        6 years, 13 days ago

        I wouldnt mind benching him for those 3 and play Lamptey/4.5 instead

        1. Kip
          6 years, 13 days ago

          + cresswell is an experienced player with some fpl pedigree (template material few years ago) and on set pieces.
          4.9 looks like great value to me.

    McCarthy
    TAA Robbo Taylor
    Salah KDB Rodriguez Podence

    Already transferred Adams > Maupay

    How else could this team be improved? Or gtg?

      1. FPLMACKEM
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Cheers. I feel like I'm being stubborn by not bringing in DCL. But I really want to do Podence to grealish as my next move.

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      GTG. I would say Mitrovic on the chopping block next week or so

      1. FPLMACKEM
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Yeah I forgot to mention I have 1.9 itb so looking at shifting mitro/Podence next. Mitro has some decent fixtures though so removed Adams first.

    rodriguez, salah, son, klich, romeu

    im considering TAA, klich, werner out for kane, ayling, pulisic

    1. Azzastaan
      6 years, 13 days ago

      yeah do the switch

    2. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      So a -12? No way, could easily backfire.

      1. Samir16
        6 years, 13 days ago

        yeah i get that it could backfire. which is why i wanted to ask if ya'll can come up with a better alternative

        1. Stormbringer22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Hold and upgrade Werner to Kane next week for a -4 if needed. With Pulisic back and *potentially* Ziyech back, Werner may start banging goals in and you may not even want to transfer him out. There is every chance that won't happen, but at least you are getting Kane for a -4 and not a -12.

          1. Samir16
            6 years, 13 days ago

            yep this was the original plan, exactly what u just said. just that i felt a little trigger happy lol and wanted to make all the transfers now

    3. Samir16
      6 years, 13 days ago

      but obviously a 12 point hit would be reckless. what alternative u guys suggest?

      1. Kip
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Stick with it for now.
        Next week you can upgrade or downgrade Werner for (-4)

    4. spray
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Maybe too early for Pulisic.
      Kane sounds great, but I'd wait until later in the week, or course.
      Don't be too early to dump Alexander-Arnold. Adrian gone is good reason, but he's not performing any worse than GW1-3.

  17. Emiliano Sala
    6 years, 13 days ago

    is balbuena nailed ?

  18. tibollom
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Hows this looking on a WC guys?

    McCarthy Button
    Dallas Chilwell KWP Ferguson Digne
    Salah Son Grealish Sterling Hames
    DCL Maupay Brewster

    1. tibollom
      6 years, 13 days ago

      other option is Pulisic + Saiss instead of Grealish and digne

    2. Kip
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Looks great. Only one i’d be worried about is Digne. He is too expensive imo with pickfords current form and pool up next

      1. tibollom
        6 years, 13 days ago

        thanks who would you recommend based on my team?

        1. Kip
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Tough call. Can you stretch to Robbo? Otherwise one of the 5.5’s ( semedo, reguilon,...)

  19. Stormbringer22
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 13 days ago

    How come Son is not even an option on the captaincy poll?

    1. Samir16
      6 years, 13 days ago

      no clue, will probably go with salah though this week. expecting merseyside to be high scoring since everton defence isn't the strongest and adrian in goal is likely to result in a couple goals at least.

      1. Make United Great Again
        6 years, 13 days ago

        Decent shout tbf

        I’m still going Son!

        1. Stormbringer22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Superstitious me hates captaining the 12:30 Saturday fixture, hence why I am leaning towards Son as well.

          1. Samir16
            6 years, 13 days ago

            damn, first year playing fpl for me so its full of reckless decisions and no real superstitions. im around 200k OR right now, is that decent for 1st time playing?

            1. Stormbringer22
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              6 years, 13 days ago

              Given how this season is going - that is a very good OR at this stage. Well done, keep up the good work!

              1. Samir16
                6 years, 13 days ago

                Also, need ur input on this. watkins and pulisic in for werner and klich. its a -8 and klich is on pens. worth it?

                1. Make United Great Again
                  6 years, 13 days ago

                  Not worth it

                  1. Samir16
                    6 years, 13 days ago

                    might do it next week with a FT. werner for watkins and actually romeu for pulisic. can keep klich in and rotate somewhere on the pitch

                2. Stormbringer22
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  6 years, 13 days ago

                  Not yet I don't think. Still a -8 hit taking a premium player out (even if he has done nothing "premium-worthy") Pulisic is a definite transfer in at some point but I would be inclined to give him a week or two before that happens.

            2. Make United Great Again
              6 years, 13 days ago

              Great start. Lots of us are having our worst ever starts

          2. Make United Great Again
            6 years, 13 days ago

            Sure does ruin the week when a 12:30 captain blanks.

            But on the flip side when he scored..

            1. Stormbringer22
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              6 years, 13 days ago

              Ha, true! Have been ignoring Salah for the captaincy so far this season and has cost me dearl. Might be high-time I capped him for the first time this season.

      son captain for me,a well rested son with no international football these 2 weeks

  20. Emiliano Sala

    just seen all villa's 3 matches highlights. watkins is a season keeper. but keep it quiet and don't tell everyone.

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Had him on my watchlist with every intention of bringing him in some time before GW6. Was hoping he kept quiet but now everyone knows he is a gem 😀

      1. Samir16
        6 years, 13 days ago

        wow if you guys have spotted him before the hat-trick that's pretty insane. thanks for the intel :). might chuck werner for watkins and upgrade klich to pulisic now

    2. Samir16
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I've had DCL since gameweek 1 that's the only major call i've nailed this season

  21. BNMC
    6 years, 13 days ago

    What is the consensus on Semedo here?
    I think he will be needed vs Leeds with his pace on the counter.

    1. MEGPAL
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I like him but not convinced by Wolves at either end of the pitch at the minute

    2. badhombres
      6 years, 13 days ago

      looked good in the game, likely to haul soon

  22. MEGPAL
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Villa’s fixtures until Boxing Day are ridiculous. Watkins in for me

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Had you told me at the beginning of the season that come GW4-5 I would be scrambling to have triple Villa, I would have laughed. Martinez + Watkins + Grealish is superb value!

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        6 years, 13 days ago

        I got laughed at in GW2 for warning people off the Martinez/Steer double up as it would lock them out of a Grealish/Watkins double up later on...

        1. Stormbringer22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 13 days ago

          Ha, true. I hadn't seen your comments back then, but sounds like a logical advice! I only have Martinez at the moment and am trying to figure out ways of upgrading Podence to Grealish as my 5th mid in a 3-5-2. I can go super crazy in the near future doing Jimenez + Podence > Watkins + Grealish. Would definitely like to give Jimenez a bit longer first though as it does feel a bit too knee-jerky transfer plan

  23. La vida FPL
    6 years, 13 days ago

    What happens to Martinez when Heaton comes back, will he still be first choice?

    1. Samir16
      6 years, 13 days ago

      with 2 clean sheets and that being their only major signing, he should keep the spot right?

    2. Emiliano Sala
      6 years, 13 days ago

      definitely. haeton was out of form last time he played and he is more aged now.
      but I picked guaita on WC.

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Almost certainly

    4. Make United Great Again
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Yep

    5. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I would say he is safe given his recent form

    6. skodaole2
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Heaton will take his comfortable place on the bench no way Martinez will be dropped even if they start conceding more.

  24. FCSB

    How’s this WC:

    Ryan Forster
    TAA Coady Konsa Ayling Mitchell
    KDB Salah Grealish Podence Stephens

    think I'm the only one going with dias on WC. fine by me

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Mate, as if your team ID is 37! Love it, you must have been refreshing that page constantly when the game was due to launch 😀

      As far as defensive options go this year - he is as good as any. Don't know how nailed he would be but most likely he is second in the pecking order and would partner Laporte most games if fit. Good luck, hope it pays off for you!

      1. Emiliano Sala
        6 years, 13 days ago

        damn I was posting on ffs on that time. I could have a one digit ID.
        my last 3 IDs: 37-30-2 !
        the only reason he is not popular is because city conceded!
        imagine a 1-0 win for city.
        then you would see dias in every single RMWCT !

        1. Stormbringer22
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 13 days ago

          That's an impressive ID record! Hoping Dias + Laporte cement themselves as the 2CBs in which case Dias a better option and use the £0.5 elsewhere. Do something similar with Robbo over TAA and all of a sudden you have an extra £1.0 to play with while still having decent Man City and Liverpool defensive cover!

          1. Stormbringer22
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            6 years, 13 days ago

            As a side note, I am fully aware that Laporte is the most cemented CB in City. Meant both of them together as a good partnership combo 😀

          2. Emiliano Sala
            6 years, 13 days ago

            thanks. can't decide between defenders really.
            reguilon, chilwell, dias and TAA/VVD/Robbo
            at first I had all 4 of them on WC. but now it seems I must sacrifice one to get grealish.
            don't know whether it worth it or not

            1. Stormbringer22
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              6 years, 13 days ago

              I would go with back 3 of Chilwell, Robbo, Reguilon (if fit) to start with. Reasom being, I would like to give Dias a couple of games and asses. After that ditch Reguilon for Dias for example if you think it is a transfer worth doing.

              1. Emiliano Sala
                6 years, 13 days ago

                thanks. looks reasonable after spurs 4 easy games!
                press conferences may make it easier to decide.
                thanks for your replies.
                feel free to ask me if you have a question.

                  No problem mate, cheers for the banther! Nothing plaguing me right now, actually quite content with my current team situation 🙂

  27. Ginger Pele
    6 years, 13 days ago

    I’m seriously considering a Villa double up of Grealish and Watkins on wc. Part of me thinks this is points chasing (they won’t score 7 against Liverpool every week!), but then three wins out of three this season, they are bang in form, and look good value. Crazy?

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Great value and favourable fixtures ahead. If I was in an easy position to do the double-up, I would definitely be pulling that trigger.

    2. Make United Great Again
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I think it’s worth it. Great differential too

  28. Make United Great Again
    6 years, 13 days ago

    How’s it looking?

    Martinez
    Ayling TAA Saiss
    KDB Salah Son Hamez Podence
    DCL Ings

    Steer, Mitchell, Davis, Johnson

    Future transfers I’m looking at.

    - Davis, Podence TAA OUT
    - Brewster, Grealish/Pulisic/Harvetz, Castagne/4.5 def IN

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 13 days ago

      We have identical midfield. Team looks good. In terms of planned future transfers, I still think it would be wise to have at least Robbo in there if no TAA.

      1. Samir16
        6 years, 13 days ago

        i've only got the salah son hamez, other 2 for me are klich and romeu since i think i have a heavier defense, i've got 4 defenders above 5 mil bad choice that i can't fix right now
        first season learnings lol

  29. diplodocus
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Too risky to go without pool def on wildcard?

    Martinez, Steer
    Cresswell, Lamptey, Ayling, KWP, C. Taylor
    Salah, KDB/Sterling, Pulisic, Hamas, Grealish
    Kane, DCL, Brewster

    Quite tempted to have Pulisic instead.

    1. Make United Great Again
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Nah until they start keeping clean sheets it’s a waste.

      Take the risk

    2. Assisting the assister
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Worth a punt I think

  30. Assisting the assister
    6 years, 13 days ago

    Have Bruno/Salah/KDB but no Son.
    Should I swap him in for one of these or sit tight?

    1. King Kun Ta
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Did Bruno -> Son

    2. Assisting the assister
      6 years, 13 days ago

      Yeah tough call

    3. mrelpea
      6 years, 13 days ago

      I'd get rid of Bruno. I also have Salah and KDB and I think I'm going to hold tight with KDB even though I've been toying around with he idea of swapping Son in for the next 3-4 GW's and then bringing back in. Fair enough City have Arsenal next and Liverpool in GW8, but in between those two, they haev West ham and Sheffield United, which are nice potentially goald-rich games.
