In the absence of the ill Mark Sutherns, our Members-only video this week features five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman and current high-flyer Az, who is sitting at 555th in the world.

They are discussing their own team and transfer plans for Double Gameweek 31, as well as their contrasting fortunes this season.

The ‘best’ options from the two teams with a pair of fixtures, Burnley and Everton, are also debated.

The pair were live on Friday afternoon with this latest video for Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout, which you can watch again via the embedded video below.

Free seven-day trials are still available for non-subscribers, which you can get here.
