Fantasy Football Scout have once again teamed up with the popular GoalScorer Challenge (GSC) competition this season.

We will be giving away a Premium Membership to the best manager every month to go with the game’s £500 top prize for the campaign’s overall winner.

If you have not played before, GoalScorer Challenge is a very simple and free game.

Every week, you pick one player from the Premier League who you think is most likely to score. The more goals that man racks up, the more points you get. But pick wisely, as you can only select each player once per season.

GoalScorer Challenge (@GoalscorerC) | Twitter

There are three types of Gameweek:

Premier League – most weekends there will be a full round of league fixtures which will all be included. If there is a full round of matches during midweek (for example over the Christmas period) these will be counted as a separate Gameweek.

International – during international breaks, you still have to pick a Premier League player, but instead for their country. There are 10 international Gameweeks this season.

Cup – on FA Cup weekends, you are again limited to players playing for Premier League teams. The EFL Cup final will also be included as it will take place alongside a regular round of Premier League matches.

GSC is free to play and it only takes a minute to enter each week. You can create mini-leagues and play against your friends, too.

Full details, rules and entry can be FOUND HERE.

    Can’t decide between jota and greenwood. Both appeal.

    1. Boothy
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Flip a coin.

    2. Alcapaul

      Greenwood just i think

      1. Andy1
        • 17 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        I think people are thinking manure are going to roll Leeds over easily. I think that will be a tight game. I think Liverpool have the easier fixture.

    3. Make United Great Again
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Greenwood

  2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    So I’m taking Calvert Lewin out. He’s not going to bang straight away.

    Antonio or who?? Got £8m to spend and Ings.

    1. KadMan
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      I'd go Ings. Fixtures are very good. But he's a transfer waiting to happen so there's that

      1. Calculated Risks
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        He has Ings...

    2. Calculated Risks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Rich maybe riding crest of an Olympic wave. Plenty of options at that price point tho

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        Might do Watkins and Ings

        1. Calculated Risks
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 18 days ago

          They're both likely to be involved in goals so could be great to own both

    3. Thomas Magnum
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Will you want DCL back straight away? If so would be easier if you bring in another 8.0 rather than a 7.5 and spread the money and then require 2FT’s

      1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        Not sure, he can be frustrating to own. Their battering against United and DCL not playing is enough for me.

  3. Boothy
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Who to bench GW 1?

    Toney or White?

    1. KadMan
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      White

    2. Calculated Risks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Not even a debate. You don't bench players at 6.5

    3. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      I think Arsenal will keep a clean sheet. But I’m an Arsenal fan.

      1. Boothy
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        Likewise HAHA

        1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 18 days ago

          Fulham first game of the season last season.

          Newly promoted and they got a whooping. Similar situation.

  4. KadMan
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    442 with double Liverpool defense or 352 with Jota?

    1. Boothy
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      3-5-2

      1. Thomas Magnum
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        This

  5. Calculated Risks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Didn't Milner play loads of matches at left back when Robbo got injured a couple years back? Why do people think Tsimakas is going to start?

    1. Lazaretti
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Good preseason. Milner needed in midfield. Hendo out Fabinho coming late from copa.

    2. KadMan
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      That's the thing. "A couple of years back." He's now 35 and Tsimikas was bought for this exact purpose. He isn't a youth player. A genuine 25 yo foreign bought player.

      1. Calculated Risks
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        Milner being 35 isn't an issue, he still runs like a work horse.
        I'm not convinced this guy will start, happy to be proved wrong. I'll stick with Trent

        1. Gomolon
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 18 days ago

          Do Liverpool have any more preseason games before GW1 to see ?

          1. Calculated Risks
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 18 days ago

            One today I believe

  6. Athletico Underachieving
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Sanchez (Foster)
    TAA, Shaw, Cash, White, Ayling
    Salah, Bruno, Barnes, Raph, xxxx
    Ings, Antonio xxxx

    A) Benrahma & Obafemi, 3-5-2, 0.5ITB
    B) Toney & Gilmour, 3-4-3 (using all £100m)

    1. Calculated Risks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Both are good, personal preference is A. U can carry Obafemi with your squad

    2. The Final Boss
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      A for me

    3. Athletico Underachieving
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Thanks both

    4. Andy1
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      I think A too. The midfield and defence allows obafemi to be left as last sub

  7. Miguel Sanchez
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Which GK scores most GW1 you think:

    A) Raya (ARS)
    B) Bachmann (AVL)
    C) Meslier (man)

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      B has the best chance I’d say. Although I think all will concede.

    2. greenybne
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Bachmann in GW1 and at season end.

    3. Athletico Underachieving
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Close, between A and B for me. Probably A

  8. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Hello guys. Can you please have a look at my recent draft?

    Sanchez foster
    Taa shaw coufal ayling amartey

    Thanks.

      Tis fine all the way through

      1. The Final Boss
        • 8 Years

        Thanks

  9. Davros
    • 17 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Lots of love for Jota. Is that just because he scored?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Great stats when he does play but reduced minutes will always be an issue

    2. Calculated Risks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Bobby late back from the Copa and when he fires he makes 7.5 look ridiculous with his ceiling. Easy to own at start of season

    3. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      He’s a very streaky player. Ride the wave whilst you can.

      1. Rasping Drive
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

    4. Davros

      Thanks all

  10. Werner Bremen
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    What do you say?

    Sanchez
    TAA, Shaw, Coufal, White
    Salah, Bruno, Son, Benrahma
    Antonio, Ings

    Foster, Amartey, Brownhill, Obafemi

    Could go from Antonio to Wilson, so I don't have a WH triple up.

    1. Calculated Risks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      I say it's a nice 4 4 2, looks like a nice way to get Son in

  11. King Kohli
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Cant decide between these two.

    A. Ings + Greenwood + Antonio + Barnes + Shaw
    B. Ings + Greenwood + Toney + Benrahma + TAA

    Really like Barnes & Antonio but not happy going without TAA.

    1. Calculated Risks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Antonio and Barnes > Toney and Benrahma. Your choices are difficult tho!

  12. The Philosopher
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    If I downgrade Bruno to Sancho, I have a midfield 5 of Salah, Sancho, Son, Jota, Greenwood.
    Yay or nay?

    1. West End Exile
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Not sure Sancho starts GW1.

  13. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Is this crazy? - 2.5 itb to jump from any of the mid price mids to son or a city mid for the Norwich game..... if Robbo news is good then just do Ings > Toney and tsimikas > taa

    Sanchez
    Tsimikas shaw amartey
    Barnes Bruno salah greenwood jota
    Ings Antonio

    4.0 white ayling obafemi

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      It’s a good idea as you could go from Greenwood or Jota to Son in GW3

      1. Andy1
        • 17 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        Is greenwood and Jota not a bit risky of rotation. One is ok, but two might catch you out

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 18 days ago

          They should both start the season but by GW3 you will need to be looking over your shoulder at rotation

  14. Taegugk Warrior
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    A. Mahrez+ESR
    B. Jota+Rapinha

  15. jia you
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    The missus who knows nothing about football (but can be lucky with captain picks) just suggested that I captain Toney in GW1...do I have the balls to go with it I'm unsure

    1. KadMan
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Well, what do you want to miss out on? Points or food?

  16. Reckoner.
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    100% starting with Raphinha & Ayling but also really want Harrison after GW1, been toying round with a lot of options, most end up with me planning a transfer to get him in after GW1.

    Think I've settled on this though which will let me start with him and bench him for GW1.

    Involves a pretty big punt on a Watford striker:

    Bachmann
    TAA | Chilwell | Chambers | Veltmen
    Salah | Fernandes | Son | Raphinha
    DCL | Cucho

    Foster | Harrison | Ayling | Obafemi

    Listing to the Watford episode of PlanetFPLs correspondents week they seem pretty confident he will start GW1 if Joao Pedro is out for GW1 which looks likely. Watfords fixtures also rotate pretty well with Leeds for the first 10 GWs, although I don't see me starting him for many/any after GW1.

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      So Cucho is only for the first few then and then he won't start?
      Chilwell won't be ready to start the season.
      Like the team in general.

      1. Reckoner.
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        Pretty much, 2nd bench option after GW1 probably.

        Oh I didn't know about Chilwell, do you know if that's injury related or extra time off after the Euros?

        1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 18 days ago

          Fair enough 🙂
          Euros related..

  17. The Final Boss
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Guys apart from son no one seems to be interested on moura and dele..Any reason?

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Fixtures for Spurs are mixed. Moura and Dele’s FPL performance hardly stellar when they play. I know it’s a new dawn with Nuno but there are better options around that price point imo.

      1. The Final Boss
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 18 days ago

        Thanks.

    2. Thomas Magnum
      • 10 Years

      They’re in the wait and see category. Like their prices though

  18. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    A or B ?

    A. Greenwood / 352
    B. Ings / 343

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      B

  19. Taegugk Warrior
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    A

  20. aapoman
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Do we think Benrahma is nailed to start the season?

    1. Athletico Underachieving
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Hard to say, but seems to be in form so you’d hope he gets the first few at least

    2. Alcapaul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Had a great pre-season apparently so you'd presume so

  21. Shark Team
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 18 days ago

    Do you like this draft? (White - Zaha rotation pair)
    Sanchez (4.0)
    TAA Coufal White Shaw (4.0)
    Salah Jota Bruno Benrahma (Zaha 4.5)
    Ings Antonio

    1. The Final Boss
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      Palace fix is very tough.

    2. Gomolon
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 18 days ago

      I like it all apart from Zaha I'm afraid, think Barnes/Raphinha are better options
