FPL team reveals: The best five Hall of Fame managers’ Gameweek 1 drafts

The top five managers in Fantasy Football Scout’s Hall of Fame have all exclusively revealed their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) teams ahead of Friday’s Gameweek 1 deadline.

These are the cream of the crop; the FPL bosses who haven’t just racked up one outstanding overall rank but several of them.

They are as follows:

  • Fábio Borges: The Hall of Fame number 1. Has finished in the top 5k in each of the last five seasons and never outside of the top 20,000.
  • Tom Stephenson: Five-time top 5k finisher and 13 consecutive top 40k overall ranks.
  • Finn Sollie: Seven top 10k finishes in the last 11 seasons, including an overall rank of 39th in 2020/21.
  • Morten Tveito: Four straight top 10k overall ranks, three of which have been 1,051st or better.
  • Yavuz Kabuk: Seven successive top 10k finishes and eight in all, featuring two in the top 1,000.

The Hall of Famers have been good enough to share their drafts with us ahead of Gameweek 1 although we’ve respected the wishes of two of them to not have their names attached to a particular team reveal, so have instead anonymised all five.

    Ok. Like every season you get a headache wondering who to choose.
    But, here is my team. Any last advice that I should consider? Thanks in advance 🙂

    Sanchez (Foster)

    White Tsimikas Shaw (Coady Amartey)

    Salah Mane Bruno Sarr (Brownhill)

    Toney Ings Antonio

    1. Clinton19
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Whos toney?

  2. OptimusBlack
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Which team is better ?
    A-
    Sanchez
    Tsimikas Shaw Coufal
    Salah Bruno Mané Benrahma Barnes
    Toney Ings
    Foster ( Amartey - White - Obafemi)

    B-
    Sanchez
    Tsimikas Coufal Amartey
    Salah Bruno Mané Benrahma
    Ings Antonio Watkins
    Foster ( Livramento White Galimour)

    1. King Kun Ta
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      A

    Ben White has scored 1 goal in 82 Champ/Prem games and has 25% ownership - so guessing he's practically guaranteed to score tomorrow 😆

    1. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      That ownership actually puts me off. Arsenal concede the first two then he's a transfer waiting to happen unless you want the .4.

      1. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        I kind of agree - having second thoughts

      2. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        And he isn't good sub for 2nd and 3rd gw either.

      3. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        The same might happen to the likes of TAA if Liverpool concede and he doesn't get a CS.

  4. Ibralicious
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Does anyone have the code for the Top 10k any season league?

  5. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Evening. Help me out please.

    Last coinflip to make

    A) Mahrez and Toney

    B) Greenwood and Greaslih

    1. Winston.

  6. Lucas World Conquest

    When could we expect Lukaku and Sancho to play?

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Sancho in the second half of GW1

      Lukaku GW2

  7. bangers and M*A*S*H
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Need som advice: a or b?
    Bold names are different from the two sides.

    A)
    Bachmann - Foster
    White - Amartey - Tsmikas - Shaw - DIGNE
    Barnes - Bruno - Salah - Benrahma - GILMOUR
    Toney - Ings - LUKAKU

    B)
    Bachmann - Foster
    White - Amartey - Tsmikas - Shaw - TAA
    Barnes - Bruno - Salah - Benrahma - RAPHINHA
    Toney - Ings - WILSON

    1. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Captain Lukaku

    2. Mcgugan
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      B. Lukaku probably won’t start

  8. King Kun Ta
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Best pick....

    A Gündogan
    B arnes
    C Greenwood

    Ta and GL this season lads!

  9. Trini Chelsea
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    GTG?
    Please RMT
    Sanchez
    TAA Tsimikas Shaw
    Havertz Salah Bruno Gundagon Brahma
    Ings Toney

    Subs: Steele,White,Amartey,Scarlett
    0.5 ITB
    Still have some money left to do changes in GW #3

  10. Bielsa's Bucket
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Lukaku 11.5

    1. Bielsa's Bucket
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      I'm slow off the pace it seems

      1. Bartowski
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        It's been said that so is he.

        1. Bielsa's Bucket
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Acceleration 20
          Pace 2

  11. Buck The Trent
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    My current bench fodder is Scarlett (4.5M 0.8%). Do you think it is a waste of Spurs spot?

    Other than Kane, he is the only striker and am happy with cameo points here and there

    1. james 101
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldn’t be worried about having too few Spurs slots just now.

      Could change though if son and Kane were both in the team long term and started clicking again.

      Sensible option is to avoid I guess.

    2. Crunchie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Could come on as a sub?

      1. Fletch69
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        I have gone with Scarlett as my bench fodder, most likely of them to get some game time.

  12. OverTinker
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    select one of these
    1. Cancelo
    2. Digne
    3. Dias
    4. Cresswell
    (considering the starting fixtures as well)

    1. CRAZY TRAIN
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      3

      1. OverTinker
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Torn between Cresswell and Dias

        1. Amartey Partey
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          Newcastle should score against West Ham at home.

        2. CRAZY TRAIN
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          I’d prefer Coufal over Cresswell I think and use the cash elsewhere

  13. CRAZY TRAIN
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    0.5 off Barnes > Son with this lot.

    Sanchez Foster
    TAA White Shaw Livr Tsimikas
    Salah Bruno Barnes ESR Gilmour
    Antonio Ings Toney

    The best route in for him looks like Toney > 6m, of which Armstrong stands out with potential. Thinking I will bank the 2.5 and see how Toney and Armstrong fare.

    1. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      you can do Toney --> 4.5, Gilmour --> Benrahma, Barnes --> Son

      1. CRAZY TRAIN
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Yes they are good options but I want to give Toney a gw or 2 first.

  14. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Starting to like this, thoughts?

    Sanchez
    Trent, Tsimikas, Shaw
    Bruno, Salah, Barnes, Mount,
    Ings, Antonio, Toni

    Foster, White, Amartey, Gilmour.

    .5 bank

      Moun

  15. Pukki Party
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone else planning on targetting Norwich by starting with Mane and getting a ManCity mid in for gw2?

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      You'd sell Mane before Burnley?

      1. Pukki Party
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Him or Son to Mahrez/Grealish gw2. Just a plan could end up doing something else.

  16. Bartowski
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    How many games is the Norwich 4.0 chap expected to last?

    1. Herman Toothrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Who knows, has played the most minutes for Norwich in preseason.

    2. CRAZY TRAIN
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Hi brother - I’m preferring Livramento as an option.

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Will he start?

        1. CRAZY TRAIN
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 8 months ago

          No guarantees but he’s decent and had some game time in preseason

  17. OverTinker
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    1. Barnes
    2. Grealish
    3. Greenwood

  18. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Lots choice in the 6.5 - 8 million,

    Greenwood
    Zaha
    Gundo
    Grealish
    Jota
    Pepe

    1. OverTinker
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Jota, Greenwood and Grealish are the only one i am considering but none of them seems nailed.

      1. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Greenwood is pretty nailed.

    2. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Pepe and Zaha for the lol's

  19. Herman Toothrot
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Feel free to copy.

    Sanchez
    TAA / Tsimikas / Shaw / Coufal
    Jota / Grealish / Bruno / Son
    Lukaku / Antonio

    Steele / Amartey / Gilmour / Scarlett

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Three non-starters more than likely . . . long term planning?

  20. Bobby Digital
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Sanchez
    TAA Shaw Tsimi
    Salah Bruno
    Ings Antonio

    Fun...

  21. Lucas World Conquest
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    I think Lukaku is a must have from GW4 onwards, I can see him smashing goals against Spurs and City and Aston Villa before those 2 games

  22. TomSaints
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    11.5 for Lukaku seems too much =[

    Was really hoping 10.5-11

    1. ViperStripes
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      All the Top 5 have Brownhill

      1. ViperStripes
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        Fail to q below

  23. Mane Mane Mane
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Two questions…

    1) Gundo or Barnes

    2) best budget midfielder out of Gilmour, Bissouma or Brownhill?

    1. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Not sure if Barnes will play, Gundo for me

  24. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    What players do you have that aren’t in any of The Top 5 Hall of Fame teams?

    Mine: Bamford & Son

    1. mixology
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Are you backing Bamford in place of Ings at the 8m spot? Clearly want Bamford long term but I may keep it short-sighted for Villa's fixtures

  25. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    g2g?

    Sanchez
    Shaw Coufal Tsimikas
    Salah Mane Son Mahrez Rafinha
    Antonio Toney
    - Foster Amartey Ayling Perica

    locking this bad boy in I think, fairly template.

  28. HeskoWhite

    2 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts appreciated on which one you’d go with:

    A: Salah Havertz Bruno 5m 4.5m

    B: Salah Havertz Son Raphina 4.5m (+0.5 itb)

    C: Salah Havertz Son Barnes 4.5m

    C

  29. Je suis le chat
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Reckon Lukaku will have 20% ownership by tomorrow. Might get him as little faith in other attackers
