We at Fantasy Football Scout are always keen to hear feedback and learn from our site readers, podcast listeners and YouTube viewers, so we’re giving you another (final!) reminder about our mid-season surveys.

You might remember the end-of-season survey that we carried out before the start of 2021/22. We were delighted to get over 1,000 responses to that, and it’s been absolutely crucial in helping us move things forward and to see where we stand.

Following up on that, we’d greatly appreciate it if you could spare 15 minutes or so filling by filling out this latest min-questionnaire which can be accessed by clicking here.

Separately, if you’ve used the Fantasy Football Scout Transfer Planner since its implementation a few months ago, there’s a separate survey for that here. This one will take less than five minutes to complete.

Thanks again for your feedback and time but most of all your continued support of the site.

    Do you know when we expect to have an announcement on possible dgw28 for Chelsea/Arsenal?

    1. Rohirrims
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Probably around Friday

      1. Old Wulfrunian
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        cheers

    Why so many here are omitting Mahrez on FH?
    I've been treating him as the first one in my FH team.

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Most FH teams I've seen on here have him

    2. Bavarian
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Prefer KDB

  3. tommo-uk-
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Currently got 7 players for GW27. (8 if Butland starts)

    Do I:

    A) FH
    B) FT
    C) -4

    1. mrelpea
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Depends on how many you have left. If you have both, definitely A. I was in the same boat as you and activated it this AM

      1. tommo-uk-
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Only the 1 FH left sadly

    2. Bruno Commando
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Same situation and I'm on FH. I have 2 left so if you have 2 as well, then it's a good GW to FH.

      1. tommo-uk-
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        As above

    3. hustler7
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      100% FH if you have two left

    4. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      depends on who the players are and what chips you have left

    5. Maeki2
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      you have to FH else you would have not transfered in that many liverpool and arsenal assets

  4. Lemongrab
    • 16 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Who goes for Weghorst

    A. Edouard (BUR)
    B. Dennis (mun)

    Should be obvious with those fixtures but honestly owning Edouard is driving me crazy. Terrible pick.

    1. hustler7
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Yeah A just because of the becnhings.

    2. mrelpea
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      I can’t wait to get rid of Édouard too. I’d lose him for Weg

    3. Lemongrab
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Cheers both

    4. Josh.E
      • 4 Years

      i have dennis, kane and broja but want weghorst who should i sell

      1. Keep calm and hoof me the b…
        • 16 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Dennis

  5. hustler7
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    All chips left other than TC.

    Would you FH this team or use it next week and save the 2nd for later on? 1FT, 1.0 ITB.

    Foster
    Cancelo Cash Livra
    Moura* Bowen D.Luiz
    Ronaldo Weghorst Dennis

    De Gea* Saka* Salah* VVD* TAA*

    Could just do Moura to Cornet or Raphina if FH used next week instead.

    Otherwise I could FH this week and WC the following?

    1. Lemongrab
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Moura to JWP? I wouldn't free hit that team, save it

    2. hustler7
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Ok thanks and good shout with JWP! Will FH 28.

  6. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    How many DGW players are people not using any chips looking for for 28? Currently I can get 7 and a bench boost

    1. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Correction, people not using WC or FH

    2. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      6 for me

    3. Arn De Gothia
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      5 now, might get 1-2 more

    4. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Have Sa, Ait Nouri, Jiménez, Broja, Raphinha atm. Likely adding Coutinho. Also using BB

  7. Rassi
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    I don't know how many FH drafts I have done already... Anyway, here is the latest and the first one with Ronnie in.

    Forster (Foster)
    Bednarek - Mee - Cancelo (Amartey, Williams)
    Mahrez - Sancho - Son - Cornet (Gilmour)
    Kane - Ronaldo - Weghorst (c)

    Tempted to go with this because Ronnie and Sancho differentials. Only one City though...

    1. Rassi
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      *only one City mid

    2. golfboy
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      I think I'd leave Ronnie and get another City Mid!

      1. Rassi
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Thanks, I guess I will just keep tinkering till the deadline lol

    3. Keep calm and hoof me the b…
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Interestingly, Fffix has Ronaldo as the highest scoring player next week. Can't see it myself against a Hodgson Watford. I'm on FH and thinking I might have a Utd defender, but otherwise going without Utd

  8. golfboy
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Morning chaps. My head hurts trying to decide if I need to FH or just take a -4 to get a full team...

    9 Starting players

    DDG
    AitNouri Cancelo
    Ramsey Son Bowen
    Maupay Broja King

    (Gunn) TAA Robbo White Saka Salah

    A) Saka and White > JWP and Mee (?)
    B) FH

    1. XABI 15
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      same boat as you! I think on paper your team isnt that good this week, yes you have 9 players but it is weak compared to what it could be. I have same issue...

      1. golfboy
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Very true, have you got 2FH left? I have so leaning towards using one.

        1. XABI 15
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 29 days ago

          I only have one left. I think if you have two I would use one here. On paper your FH team could get 20-30 more points that one above

        2. mrelpea
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 29 days ago

          If you have both, I’d go for it. I was in the same boat, but activated first FH this morning

    2. Cojones of Destiny
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      FH territory

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      FH

    4. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      I think this is a super obvious FH tbh.

    5. Maeki2
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      too weak

  9. XABI 15
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Would you FH this team, only have 10 players?

    Sanchez
    Veltman Saiss Cancelo
    Ramsey Bowen Raphinha
    Kane Broja Jimenez

    I have used my WC and 1FH already. Reasons to freehit are get x3 Burnley players, get Son, get some United and City.

    I feel having 10 sounds good, but a lot of my players are playing against eachother and I havent got exposure to the big teams.

    What do we think?

    1. hustler7
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      As you only have 1 left I would personally save.

    2. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Yes

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Save FH since you only have 1 left & 4 players for GW30

    4. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      If you only have 1 FH left I would not use it here.

  10. Sterling Archer
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    the incident with Foden and his mother could of upset the lad, maybe Pep gives him the weekend off

    1. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      A chance that happens but theres probably enough time for him to come to terms with what happened before city play Everton

    2. Ruinenlust
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      He should be dropped

  11. G Banger
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    With my FT I can get the following:

    De Gea
    Cancelo / Ait Nouri / Mee
    KDB / Ramsey / Cornet / Bowen
    Broja / Dennis / Antonio

    (Ramsdale* / TAA* / Alonso* / Salah*)

    Anything worth a hit? (likely going to WC in WK28)

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      gtg

  12. Cojones of Destiny
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    for next few gws:
    a. Broja
    b. Adams

  13. mcflyjohn
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    First FH draft (of many) but I'm not 100% on it - what do we think, any obvious improvements?

    Pope (£3.9)

    Cancelo | Laporte | Livramento

    Son | Bruno | JWP | Mahrez | Cornet

    Weghorst | Kane

    Bench: Broja | Kilman | Amartey

    1. Lemongrab
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Wouldn't pick cornet personally otherwise all good

      1. mcflyjohn
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Cheers!

    2. Fozzyb34r
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Play Broja instead of Cornet

      1. mcflyjohn
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Thanks!

    ** Any Thoughts on this please ?

    Forster
    Cancelo Ait Nouri Tarkowski** Dinge
    Son Coutinho Raphinha
    Broja Weghorst** Jimenez

    No bench!
    Salah TAA Saka Ramsdale

    Cap Weghorst or Son ??

    Players DGW
    Gives me 8 DGW in 28th
    Gives me 7 DGW in 29th Triple Cap ( Salah)
    Gives me 10 DGW in 30th

    1. FPL_ UP_Down
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Have 2.2 ITB

  15. Kodap
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Is this worth a FH? I have both left, I can field 10 but one of them is Eduoard who I want to shift for Weghourst ASAP. Do I field 10 and just do the Eduoard > Weg move or play my FH? Don't really want to lose any of the players on my bench.

    DDG
    Taa - Cancelo - Dalot - Ait Nouri
    Son - Bowen - Coutinho
    Eduoard - Broja - Maupay

    Ramsdale - Saka - Robbo - Salah

    1. Lemongrab
      • 16 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Wouldn't free hit just to get 1 extra player, just roll with 10 playing imo

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Save FH

    3. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      That is definitely a FH imo.

  16. grennans2
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    I have the below team for next week. Have all chips except TC remaining.

    Firstly, am I right in saving my FH this week? Have 11 playing currently but maybe not the strongest 11

    And secondly, would it be best to use my WC for GW28 or save it for later to prepare for BB36? Wondering this as I could replace Salah with Mahrez/Sterling/Son for next week if I WC GW28.

    DDG (Ramsdale)
    Cancelo - Digne - Coufal (TAA, Tierney)
    Bruno - Bown - Foden - Cornet (Salah)
    Weghorst - King - Dennis

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Yep save

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      I'd save FH here and aim to WC in 28.

      Salah > City mid/Son

      1. grennans2
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Thanks, any reason why you think the WC is stronger in 28, rather than waiting later and using it to set up for BB36?

  17. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Anything worth changing in this FH team?

    pope
    cancelo shaw mee
    kdb bruno son jwp
    kane weghorst broja

    1. Conners
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Nope, looks good to me.

  18. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Sign one:

    A: Roberts
    B: Mee

    Sell one:

    1: Saka
    2: Martinelli

    1. Cojones of Destiny

      A2

      1. The Philosopher

        Cheers

  19. HD7
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    On FH:

    Sterling or Sancho

    Sancho seems to be hitting form and Im not sure If Sterling will start next game. Think one of him and Foden will make way for Mahrez

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Gundo will make for Mahrez most likely.

      Sterling was playing on the left wasnt he? Not sure Mahrez has played that role enough for City. Foden will have to play LW for that to happen imo.

  20. Rohirrims
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    DdG
    Cancelo - Dias - Digne - Tomiyasu**
    JWP - Bowen - Ramsey
    Kane - Watkins - Broja

    Ramsdale - Salah - Saka - TAA

    Have 1 FH left, so plan is to cover Burnley defense for Tomiyasu and maybe take a hit for Watkins to Jimenez later in the week.

  21. TopBinFC
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    Surely no need for a FH?

    Sanchez,
    Cancelo, Dier, Coady
    Foden, Son(c), Ramsey, Raphinha
    Toney, Antonio, King

    Guaita, RAN, TAA, Salah

    Have 2 FTs, thinking RAN to KWP? Or if Toney is still injured the Broja?

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      I would FH probably. Sanchez, Dier, Coady Ramsey and all 3 strikers are average options for this week.

      1. TopBinFC
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Sanchez at home to Villa who couldn't score against Watford or Newcastle? I assumed getting 11 players this week was the goal? Interesting thought though, cheers.

        1. Karan_G14
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 29 days ago

          Only one of Sanchez or Ramsey can do well. I just think there is some high upside with City, United, Spurs & Burnley players this week. Not often do you get such teams in a blank week and team with a double.

          1. TopBinFC
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 29 days ago

            Cheers, thanks, I have Foden, Cancelo, Son and Dier. Not keen on United only Bruno

      2. TopBinFC
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Apologies, who would your 3 strikers be on a FH? I see alot with Jimenez, Broja etc. If Toney is injured I will get Broja. I'd rather Antonio to Jimenez this GW

        1. Karan_G14
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 29 days ago

          Kane Weghorst for 352 and Broja if 343.

          1. TopBinFC
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 29 days ago

            Cheers.

    2. Fit_to_drop
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Both sensible tranfers

  22. EL tridente
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 29 days ago

    How is this WC looking? Will most likely do Cornet and Weghorts to ASM and Saka before GW28
    Sá, Dubravka
    TAA, Digne, Bednarek, KWP, Coady
    Salah, Son, Raphinha, Coutinho, Cornet
    Jimenez, Broja, Weghorts

    1. TopBinFC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Nice, except Raph

    2. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Looks good for BB in GW28

      1. EL tridente
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 29 days ago

        Also the plan 🙂

    GW 28 thoughts:
    Skip the WC?

    By doing De Gea Ronaldo King to Sa, Kane, Jimi (-8) I can get:

    Sa*
    TAA Robbo Cancelo Livra*
    Salah Foden Ramsey* Saka
    Kane Jimi*

    Steer Tierney Bowen Scarlett

  24. Old Bull

    Is 3 City defenders unwise?

    1. golfboy
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Probably! I think 2 is plenty

    2. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …

      very dangerous

    I've just switched from Broja to JWP on my FH after seeing Norwich are 2nd in the table for Chances conceded from set pieces in the last 6 game weeks

    1. TopBinFC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      Maybe I should change my transfer from KWP to Bednarek then... lol

    2. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 29 days ago

      That 1.1m difference is a lot though. Would have to downgrade Bruno to Sancho if I want JWP over Broja.

        • 13 Years

        I cant afford Bruno so Im going with Sancho anyway. The WC dropped by TV by 1.7 mil lol

      Son
      Kane

    Am I on my own? Have all chips except the TC.

    Plan was:
    GW30 FH
    GW33 FH (Should be blank?)
    GW 34/35 WC with aim to build bench for:
    BW 36 BB for the last big double

    Seems like everyone is deploying WC/FH either now, or in next few weeks.

    I have 11 for 27 (Coufal and Dalot are concerns tho), and can mange the 28/29 doubles ok-ish

      No many of us have similar plans.

      Similar:

      DDG
      Cancelo - Dalot - Coufal - Digne
      Foden - Bowen - D Luiz
      Weghorst - Kane(C) - King
      No Bench
      With 1FT to maybe sort Coufal or Dalot.

    This has to be the most difficult GW decision in a while, please send help!

    Current Team

    BUTLAND Ramsdale

    vvd tierney CANCELO taa DUFFY

    BOWEN GALLAGHER saka FODEN salah

    JIMENEZ ANTONIO DENNIS

    Butland, Duffy & Foden doubtful for various reasons so could realistically only have 6 players.

    ideally want to bring in burnley players but Weghorst would replace one of the 6 players.

    Weghorst IN Jimenez OUT?
    Mee IN Duffy OUT?

    I dont want to make too many transfers as i would need to buy back most of the players and lose squad value.....arggggh.

    1 FH left but reading through this thread seems its best to save this for another GW.

    Yeh.....help please.
