Yet another Fantasy Premier League (FPL) deadline is almost upon us but Gameweek 24 is almost something of an afterthought, with many of us looking further ahead to the doubles and blanks that litter the landscape.

As is always the case, the comments section of our site is filled with requests for advice on transfer dilemmas, chip strategy and team help. So we’ve asked five-time top 1k finisher and Scout’s Deputy Editor, Tom Freeman, to answer some of them in the next hour.

He’ll be on hand to firstly reply to requests from Premium Members in the Hot Topic below the line of this piece and will get through as many as he can until the next article goes up.

If there’s time, Tom will also turn his attention to other requests in the comments section.

As ever, you can chip in with your own opinions on the raft of RMT requests filtering through – and naturally, feel free to ignore the article subject matter and talk about any other wider FPL topics that you’d normally be musing on.

Don’t forget that, if it’s an algorithmic answer you’re after rather than an opinion-based one, we also have a ‘Rate My Team’ tool available in the Premium Members Area.

    Jurgen Klopp: "Mo is now back, I spoke already to him. He is very disappointed of course, but looking forward to all the things coming up here now. I spoke to him and pretty much the first thing Mo told me was: ‘I’m ready.’"

    Serious FOMO.

      I wish he wasn't.

    2. Vjm6891
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah he's ready..................for the bench

    3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Deary me now I can't help but consider putting the armband on him over Mahrez

      1. TopBinFC
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah I'm thinking same, back with a bang

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Hmm. United DGW is making this complicated.

  2. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years

    So Salah has two games in three days. Which one does he get rested for?

    1. TopBinFC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Which is the tougher game? I feel Burnley away

  3. JONALDINHO
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Just a reminder that if Salah starts against Leicester he’s very likely to be rested at Burnley

    1. Jordan.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      maybe but bruno will be (c) 25 anyway ,people with both salah and bruno already are in a strong position

    2. trick9
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Mo Salah and 'very likely to be rested' is never true.

  4. Il Capitano
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    1FT 7.9m ITB

    Guaita
    TAA Cancelo White
    Jota Foden Bernardo Raph Bowen
    Antonio Watkins

    Foster - King Dawson Livra

    Bernardo to a premium mid or save?

    1. Boz
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Bernardo to KDB?

      1. Il Capitano
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        That's the dream, but I'd have to sell him again straight away if I want Bruno in 25

        1. Boz
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I can see KDB vs Norwich out scoring Bruno in the double tbh. But I think either would be a good move for Bilva

          1. TopBinFC
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            KDB only plays one of Brentford and Norwich with CL next Tuesday

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

    Hi all.....6.3mitb. Anything for a hit?

    Planning Foden to Bruno to Sarah gw25 and 26

    Ddg (rams)
    Taa cancelo digne (livra diop)
    Foden jota bowen raphinha grey

    Thanks

    Bottomed..
    On wildcard, what ya think is better for next run of fixtures

    A) Buendia +Broja
    B) Ramsey + Weghorst

  7. TimmyFPL
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    I have 2 FHs left but I'm trying to save 1 between GW27 and GW30. Given that I will probably use it in GW30, which defender would be the best replacement of Alonso this week? I'm doubting between:

    1. Dalot (already have De Gea)
    2. Laporte
    3. Digne
    4. Ait Nouri
    5. Robertson (would mean getting rid of Jota for Salah in GW26)

    1. Malaikat Jihad
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Robertson, but that does lock you into a transfer for the next game week, and that could cost you if you have a fire to put out elsewhere

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

    Foster
    TAA - Cancelo - Reguilon
    KDB - Raph - Bowen - Jota
    DCL - Kane(C) - Dennis
    Sanchez - Ramsey - Ait Nouri - Targett
    1FT 1.0itb
    G2G?

  9. HeinrichWalker
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    please RMT, what to do? plan is to have Bruno in 25 and do Bruno -> Salah in 26
    A) Roll
    B) Alonso -> Davies/Emerson
    C) Trossard -> KDB (C) (+ eventually a hit for a defender)
    D) Trossard -> Bruno

    Team:
    Ramsdale (De Gea)
    Keane, Cancelo, TAA (Livra, Alonso)
    Jota (C), Martinelli, Bowen, Gray (Trossard)
    King, Dennis, Ronaldo
    1 FT, 3.7 ITB

    THANKS A LOT!

    More Klopp comments

    "He is an experienced player, he is a physical monster, to be honest, so we have to see. He will obviously have a little recovery session today"

    1. TopBinFC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      He starts, wants to break all records etc

  11. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    For next 3GWs would you rather have:

    1. Antonio Ramsey
    2. Edouard Gray

    ?

  12. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    On a WC:

    A: keep KDB and switch to Bruno next GW
    B: save transfer and bring in Bruno now

    1. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Stick with KDB.

  13. BHA_Seagull
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Who to give the armband
    A. Jota
    B. Kane
    C. KDB

    Currently on C

    1. Oggle22
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Wowsers how have you managed to get all 3?

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      C

    3. Malaikat Jihad
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Kane. I have Son as Captain.

  14. TomSaints
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    I feel I’ve over thought this and panicked to get Salah back in to replace Jota.

    Potentially a case of too much information as I had zero intention of that until logging in and seeing the positive interview news.

    1. Fodderx4
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I was all set on saving before reading it too. Thinking of Sterling and Maddison to Mo and Gallagher. Thoughts?

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

        I like it, just a shame Gallagher can’t play v Chelsea

  15. Oggle22
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    HELP! 2ft 0.1m itb

    Is it mad to go without a city player!

    Ramsdale
    TAA Reg Keane
    Salah(C) Bowen Jota Gray Bruno
    Antonio DCL

    Foster Dennis Livra Johnson

    Cheers

    1. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      yes, yes it it.... RIP

  16. trick9
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Salah price should skyrocket up soon.

    1. Torres76
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      The king is back!

  17. Catastrophe
    • 15 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Advice greatly appreciated on my plan! Only FH, BB and TC left unfortunately, 1FT, 4.6 ITB.

    Sa
    TAA, Robertson, Cancelo, Laporte, Digne
    KDB(c), Jota, Raphinha, Bowen
    Watkins

    (Foster, Ramsey, Dennis, Broja)

    Thinking save FT and then:

    GW25 - Jota -> Fernandes (C), Sa -> DDG
    GW26 - Fernandes/KDB -> Salah (TC), Raphinha -> Saka/Martinelli
    GW27 or GW30 - FH

    OK to go with Fernandes and KDB in GW25, and without Salah (or Jota)?

    Make sense to save FT this week or go Sa (ARS) -> DDG (bur)?

    Cheers!!

    1. Torres76
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Don’t sell Jota

      1. Catastrophe
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers. Jota will eventually make way for Salah - I prefer Robertson - regardless of how good Jota is, surely he will have to share some minutes with Firmino & now Luiz. I much prefer Fernandes in DGW25 than Jota. Jota will stay for this week though.

    2. Malaikat Jihad
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Save Sa if you have him for Wolves v Arsenal.

      1. Catastrophe
        • 15 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers. I'm heading towards this, although still considering moving to DDG this week given I'd almost certainly bring him in for DGW25 anyway. Wolves are 5/2 for clean-sheet, Utd are 5/4.

  18. thom830g
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Foster + Antonio -> Eduoard + DDG?

    Team is
    Ramsdale
    Cancelo - TAA - White
    Bowen - Fernandes (C) - Bernardo - Jota
    Dennis - Watkins - Antonio*

    (Foster - Madders - Coady* - Dier)

    1. thom830g
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      for - 4

  19. FirminoIsBetterThanYou
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Is Dennis to Edouard for free crazy, I just don’t love Watford’s fixtures and the attacking threat is almost non existent?

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Not crazy. Its sensible

      1. FirminoIsBetterThanYou
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, haven’t checked in for a while wasn’t sure what people’s thoughts on him were

  20. Torres76
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Captain

    1. Salah
    2. KDB

    Looking at the Egyptian king

    1. trick9
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Salah for sure.

    2. Malkmus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      KDB imo. Salah won't play 90 surely?

    3. Catastrophe
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Hmm, close. Salah if you have him I guess. I'm going for KDB (c) and happy for this week

      1. trick9
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        KDB is a fine choice, VC for me. Will likely move him after this GW because i can see him rested before CL.

        1. Catastrophe
          • 15 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I think I'll hold onto him for Norwich away, and then move him on for Salah in GW26.

  21. Malkmus
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    A'noon all. Just looking ahead to dgw26. Does the below plan look ok for -4 and 7 x DGwers?

    RAMSDALE
    TAA - TIERNEY - Cancelo
    JOTA - SALAH - SAKA - Bowen - Kdb
    DENNIS - Watkins

    Ta !

    1. Rains of Castamere
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Absolutely

      1. Malkmus
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers !

  22. Old Bull
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    I’m worried about the KDB captain pick. It looks too obvious, too easy. Rarely works out that way.

    1. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      It makes sense though.

    2. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      KDB's area is influence is in the middle of the park - Brentford play 3 at the back + 3 in central midfield. KDB will find it very hard to find space to shine, the wider players should fare better.

  23. trick9
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Mo feasting on Leicester defense?

    Step aside, KDB.

    1. Torres76
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      100%

      Going to be fired up

  24. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Afternoon guys. Thoughts on below?

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo Digne
    Bruno Jota Bowen Gray Martinelli
    Watkins King

    Sanchez Dennis Livra Johnson

    Any of these worth hits?

    A) King to Eduoard
    B) Gray to KDB/Mahrez
    C) both for -8pts
    D) Gray to Salah

    Captain

    1) TAA
    2) Cancelo
    3) Jota
    4) Bowen
    5) Bruno

  25. winchester
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Hey, have 2ft and 4,5m itb. what would the moves be here? Have all the chips left. planning on TC gw26, so then wc gw25 would be ideal, right? or should i navigate with free transfers? cheers!

    ddg
    taa - cancelo - reguilon
    bernardo - jota - bowen - bruno - saka
    watkins - antonio

    (foster - dennis - keane - livra)

    a) bernardo+keane -> kdb+dalot (KDB will be Salah come gw 26)
    b) bernardo+antonio -> kdb+edouard (KDB will be Salah come gw26)
    c) reguilon/keane -> digne
    d) something else?

    1. jonnybhoy

  26. Rains of Castamere

    One week punt on a City mid... (becomes Bruno in 25 and Salah in 26).

    A) KDB
    B) FODEN
    C) MAHREZ

    May even captain over Jota.

    1. TopBinFC
