Fantasy Football Scout has been voted as the ‘best editorial’ in Fantasy Football for 2020.

That’s according to the Football Content Awards who revealed the results at a virtual ceremony on Tuesday, December 8.

The competition in our category was fierce with Athletic columnist FPL General, Premier Injuries’ Ben Dinnery, Fantasy Football Fix and Fantasy Football Hub.

Delighted Fantasy Football Scout editor David Munday said: “It is a great honour to receive this award.

“FFS is dedicated to providing high-quality, industry-leading content for Fantasy managers worldwide and it is wonderful to see that recognised by the football community.

“I would like to thank our incredible roster of contributors who regularly submit insightful articles as well as my hard-working deputy editor Neale Rigg. I strongly believe his Kanté-esque graft in midfield is the secret to our success.

“And, of course, full credit goes out to our readers and members who make all of this possible with their unerring support to FFS.”

    Bruno Fernandes can cement a position in the starting 11 of any team. Quality player. Chelsea fan here wishing that he could be playing for current quality sides like Liverpool, Man City, or Atletico Madrid.

                  Arsenal deserve all they get, treated Wenger like dirt. You reap what you sew

            There is always a starting point mate. Even old Liverpool fans started somewhere.

          They been sleeping since the invincible season. Tell an Arsenal fan they are poor the reply is invincible.

    Solskjaer has almost certainly brought us as far as he can. But, I still thank him. He’s actually got us playing decent football, he’s brought through a host of younger players and he’s brought the club ethos back to its roots. He’s also got rid of loads of deadwood and brought in a few good un’s - Bruno chief among them. I thank him for all of that.

    But, it’s time to start lining up a top class coach to take over soon. And the club need dig deep to back him as well.

    Suspect it will be Poch

    1. Gobigorgohome

      Poch would be better

      1. Garth Marenghi

        5 years, 4 months ago

        That does seem like a good fit. You got the mourinho/swap narrative too

    2. MJF
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Don't know how much of a difference a manager will make. They've had van Gaal and Mourinho who were serial winners and proven at elite level.

        Until the Glazers go they'll lurch from one crisis to the next.

            This. United will continue to struggle while the manager has to be subservient to him.

      • Zimo
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        He should have bowed out before this season started and everyone would have hailed him as a legend

        1. Zimo
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Well he is a playing legend but u know what i mean

      • Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Ole hasn't done f all for United ; park the bus and break is decent football? Please. Also not responsible for recruitment so Fernandes has nothing to do with him.

            give all 3 goals to Mbappe and I might still win that game

          3. OverTinker
            • 7 Years

            Both teams walked off

            Why? They both walked

        I watched it over again. Who said it?

    4. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Ramsey for free and Gnabry for 5 million. I swear there are many people with low IQ in football, but it seems like most of them have been accumulated at Arsenal. Even the fans (aftv).

      They used to be so well run and financially healthy, and since Wenger left the managment’s resembled headless chicken.

      1. Right In The Stanchion
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Sold Iwobi and Walcott for £60m. Swings and roundabouts.

        1. Pariße
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          True, second tier players were sold well. Best ones not so much, Sanchez, RvP, Fabregas, Nasri...

      2. Garth Marenghi
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Basically true, but oxlade was a good sell

    5. Man Chest Hair United
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Is pulisic a decent option to replace Ziyech?

      Can’t afford son and have Grealish

      1. Iwantmorepointsthanks
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        While he is explosive and a good player, he is too injury prone for my liking and there's a high rotation risk at Chelsea.

        But could be great differential if you are lucky with the timing

      2. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Could be brilliant but risky as he might break

        1. Man Chest Hair United
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          Yep already had him once and he got injured in the warm up/

          But he was so good late last season to own

      3. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 14 Years

        Don’t go there, already been burnt by him and even before that

      Why is PSG game interrupted?

      1. Gobigorgohome

        ref said n word to istanbul staff

        1. Gobigorgohome
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          and players walk out

        Assistant ref racially abused Istanbul staff member

      3. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Because the ref allegedly used the n-word

        1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
          • 16 Years
          5 years, 4 months ago

          This. Let it be at allegedly for now. I've seen Romanians saying 'negru' means black and 'Ala negru' means the black one.

          So IF the ref asked the fourth official which coach should be booked, then it MIGHT not be abuse.

          1. Brehmeren
            • 15 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            You don't think that would be racist?

            1. TOLV TUMS
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              5 years, 4 months ago

              Might not be abuse but 120 percent racist

            2. Pariße
              • 11 Years
              5 years, 4 months ago

              You have to understand the context, this would be a misunderstanding in my view. The term was mostly used in derogative manner the West, different nations different histories.

            3. ReindeerHotdog
              • 5 Years
              5 years, 4 months ago

              Could certainly be cultural.

              Negro means black in Portuguese, for example. As other posters have said, negru means black in Romanian.

              Not sure how that can be classed as racist as it would 100% be the same as you saying "black" in English.

              1. @persecuted_by_mods
                  5 years, 4 months ago

                  Very easily, if a ref says "I'm booking Mason Mount and the black guy"(Tammy) that would of course be racist because why does race come into it?

                  1. Zimo
                    • 7 Years
                    5 years, 4 months ago

                    This.

                  2. Brehmeren
                    • 15 Years
                    5 years, 4 months ago

                    Exactly

                • Paqueta Rice
                  • 5 Years
                  5 years, 4 months ago

                  Why could he not just use the players number?

                  1. The Train Driver
                    • 10 Years
                    5 years, 4 months ago

                    Was staff, not player..

                    1. @persecuted_by_mods
                        5 years, 4 months ago

                        Ah right staff can't see numbers

                      • Paqueta Rice
                        • 5 Years
                        5 years, 4 months ago

                        Or point then 😆

            • 12 Years

            Racism

          3. have you seen cyan

            • 11 Years
            5 years, 4 months ago

            negru means black in Romanian. Sounds like a cultural mis-understanding, but sadly we all go by Western standards nowadays.

            1. EmreCan Hustle
              • 13 Years
              5 years, 4 months ago

              A UEFA referee should know better IMO.

              1. F4L
                • 11 Years
                5 years, 4 months ago

                Know better than not use to use own language? Who gets to decide what language should be used and what language shouldn't be used?

                1. Brehmeren
                  • 15 Years
                  5 years, 4 months ago

                  I don't think that was his point.

                  1. F4L
                    • 11 Years
                    5 years, 4 months ago

                    What was it then? To not use certain words from his own language because they could be confused for a derogatory term from another language?

                    1. @persecuted_by_mods
                        5 years, 4 months ago

                        Why can't they just use the players name? Shirt number? Point at him? Why race? Why use the word in their language that refers to race

                        1. F4L
                          • 11 Years
                          5 years, 4 months ago

                          Wasn't it directed towards the member of staff? I'm not surprised the official doesn't know any other easily identifiable feature aside from his race.

                          1. @persecuted_by_mods
                              5 years, 4 months ago

                              So he mentions race and race alone and somehow that
                              alone identifiess exactly who he is talking about? Even though there are other black people there too?

                              Hmmmmm

                              1. F4L
                                • 11 Years
                                5 years, 4 months ago

                                On the coaching staff, from the video I saw, it does make it easy to identify who the official is talking about by referring to race.

                                What's the end goal here, not referring to people by their obvious characteristics and always walking on egg shells?

                          2. Pariße
                            • 11 Years
                            5 years, 4 months ago

                            It was a person from the bench wearing a winter jacket and a bald head. Should’ve just exposed one of thise two things.

                    2. EmreCan Hustle
                      • 13 Years
                      5 years, 4 months ago

                      A UEFA referee should have enough exposure to know what words might be misinterpreted.

                      In my country also they might use an inappropriate word even though the are not racist in any way. That's Just down to ignorance...should be the case for a UEFA referee IMO.

                        I understand where you're coming from, but I don't agree with that line of thought. People should be grown up enough to realise that different cultures have different meanings behind their words.

                      If you’re in an international setting where English is the primary language you can’t go around claiming that. If it’s so important: don’t take the job as a ref in an international setting. Simple!

                      In my language the word for corner is the word that rhymes with Kant. Should I be sad that I can’t go around saying that in an international setting? Are you daft?

                        Honestly I'm not sure how to answer that, it's not my position to say. If someone were to take offence to you saying that word, I'm sure they would be understanding enough once they realised what the true meaning of the word is in your dialect.

                          Dude would he say the white guy. Why is he saying that in the first place. He should use his name.

                            I'm guessing he didn't know his name as he was a member of the coaching staff. And who knows? That's a good question, you'd hope so yes, if there was one white guy amongst a group of black people he would refer to the white person as "the white guy".

                          So everyone should expect that anything anyone says can mean everything always. Makes sense...

                            ...from different cultures. Obviously if you grow up in a certain culture/country you know what your own words mean and have nowhere to hide if you use a derogatory term.

                  Arguments between so-called "supporters" of the elite clubs on the Internet is one of the things that is pathetic about modern football.

                  Doubtless many of them have never set foot in the city of the club they follow much less been to see them play.

                    My livescore app says it was Ba. Didn't know he played there.

                      Ba is on the bench and he was very animated later on. He was right up on the officials face. Clearly distressed.

                Mahrez or Fernandes?

                A) Zouma, Fernandes, DCL

                      The combinations are interesting though. Getting Kane in is quite nice.

                        • 7 Years

                        Mahrez been a miss this season, and Coufal plays for West Ham so it's eh

                        1. Camzy

                          5 years, 4 months ago

                          But his potential and his current performances are very good. We're looking for future points not current ones.

                Nice to have a Friday fixture worth watching, Got Bam and Fab in that. Just got Bamford in this week, feel like West Hams bubble is gonna be burst big time...
                Hopefully Fab gets many saves in the process 😀

                  Maybe Raphinha instead of Podence, why the Ayling move? Leeds got pretty nice fixtures over xmas, as you dont have Bamford i'd consider Raph

                  1. have you seen cyan
                    • 6 Years
                    5 years, 4 months ago

                    Yea based on Leeds fixtures in comparison to Wolves, and comparisons which I cant divulge. I would be looking at Raph

                    1. MoSalalalalalalalalah
                      • 7 Years
                      5 years, 4 months ago

                      Yeah, Raph probably does pose more of a threat, but Gross is on pens. Ayling because Mitchell isn't playing and he seemed the best 4.5 option. Thoughts?

                Very interesting - Bemba Da being showed a red card and then he starts questioning why the official used the word "negro/negru"

                Looks like, dodgy penalty, ball out of play, never handball and penalty but outside the box are the options . . . .

                N-word never used apparently, although still clear racism

                    May mean black in Romanian...

                  Romanian word for "black" is negru. Apparently 4th official is Romanian.

                    This might change things, if he just described him as the black guy to the main ref. Stupid to describe someone like that but might not be intended as racist.

                  Hmm is that racist?

                  So if there were a game played in which all players in one team were black apart from one and the official was attempting to identify the white guy, could he not say the white guy as that is clearly the easiest method to ID him. Same theory in this case. He’s just saying he is black. What’s wrong with that.

                  And before anyone pipes up about this being racist, which hopefully they won’t as it’s not, I am as far from a racist as you can get.

                    I would add that if he used an offensive word then clearly that is racist and completely unacceptable. Should never officiate again.

                      It's not the same because this isn't a scenario where there is one single player of a certain race

                      There is literally 0 reason to mention race, if you can't see that then that's on you

                        But as a society we decided so put a stigma on this particular feature even when no offense was intended. The stigma is based on historical developments in the West and all other nations are expected to comform. I don’t think that’s right.

                    When asked who should get the card, 4th ref said "asta negru", which in Romanian means "this black one/guy".

                          fairly certain it isnt, for instance the police would say black male

                      5 years, 4 months ago

                      Ddg is pretty useless these days, at least kepa is young enough to maybe improve somewhere else

                      Kepa. People forget that DDG carried Man U for about 5 years

                    • Bushwhacker
                      • 6 Years
                      5 years, 4 months ago

                      They're both decent keepers. Kepa does not thrive under pressure though, would be fine back in La Liga.
