With Gameweek 14 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) nearing, five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman is here to help with your pre-deadline dilemmas for the next hour.

Whether it’s thoughts on Erling Haaland (£12.2m), the best three-week punts or anything in between, Scout’s Deputy Editor will tackle whatever’s thrown at him.

Tom will be on hand to first 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.

You can, as ever, chip in with your own opinions on the RMT requests filtering through – and naturally, you’re 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.

    Jumpthewave's Spurs line-up predictions, skill weighted:
    https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FgKlrTSWIAAvK7c?format=jpg&name=4096x4096

    59% Doherty, 41% Emerson
    17% Perisic, 83% Sessegnon

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON

      Skill weighted?

        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Each week people predict the line-ups, the ones at the top are the most accurate historically and are higher weighted for a 'skill weighted' average (the bottom bold row)

          Great. Thanks. Went through the spreadsheets. And all of them make sense interestingly.

    2. notlob legin

      Do you know historically how accurate these are?

      Unfortunately have no idea what I'm looking at or what Jumpthewave is

        They are not a bad resource if you are unsure about a player

        1. Deulofail
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          3 people voted for Koulibaly, but he's been ruled out. Not sure there's any point putting any trust in these if that's possible

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            They had some earlier predictions for that one

    Jesus or darwin for one week

      Jesus

    2. mdm

      Darwin

  7. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    For obvious reasons I've made my mind up to not captain Haaland so who shall I choose instead?
    A) Foden
    B) Salah

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years

  8. ShaunGoater123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Would you rather ply Barnes or Andrea’s?

    I’m leaning towards Barnes as a differential plus I have mitrovic playing too

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Andreas

    2. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Depends what am I plying them with?

  9. ct mariner
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Kepa
    Trippier, Cancelo, Gomez
    Salah, Foden, Almiron, Martinelli, Andreas
    Haaland, Kane

    Ward, Solanke, Geuhi, Castagne

    1FT 0.6 IB

    1. Roll FT
    2. Solanke to Edouard, Alvarez (cover for Haaland) or another

    1. ct mariner
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      less than 6.4m striker

    2. Sun Jihai

      1

  10. donbagino
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    a) Madds-->Saka (own Martinelli)
    b) Madds--> Rashford / Anthony
    c) roll FT and play Andreas (bench Madds).

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      C

  11. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    All good here, including the bench order?

    Kepa
    Cancelo Trippier Gomez
    Salah Foden Saka Martinelli Odegaard
    Haaland Darwin

    Ward Guehl Greenwood Neco

  12. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Why are people captaining Salah over Foden?

    1. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Leeds defense

    2. Kodap
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm a Leeds fan, and even I'm captaining Salah

    3. mdm
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      For points

      1. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Haha

  13. Manani
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    order for these 3?

    A. Perisic
    B. Dunk
    C. Guehi

  14. Stavrosplay
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone know whats the latest on Haaland ?

  15. Chalobah's Witness
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Final scout selection looking odd to me. No Zaha, Haaland, Cancelo, Darwin, Saliba, Gabriel, ... Martinelli, Jesus ?

  16. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Out of interest are you...

    A) Haaland (C)
    B) Haaland
    C) Another player (C)

    1. Chalobah's Witness
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Haaland (C) and Salah (VC)

      If Halland plays he will haul. If he won't start he surely won't get any minutes so Salah will be the man.

  17. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Estupinan and Bowen to Shaw and Rashford for a hit?

    Or just do the Bowen move and play Neco or Jonny?

    Cheers all

    1. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same boat here with Estupinan as third defender and Bowen owner. For me that move is -4.

      I am leaning to Saka and White though.

  18. Stavrosplay
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    1 FT

    Starting
    Pope
    Trippier, Cancelo, Dier
    Salah, Martinelli, Foden, Andreas
    Haaland, Toney, Mitro

    Bench
    Guehi, Bowen, Emerson

    Trend seems to be get rid of Bowen
    do I

    A) Use my 1FT now and get someone in for Bowen and start him ahead of Andreas
    B) Roll the transfer ( Bowen has CRY, LEI, both at home GWS 15/ 16)

  19. Ahmed aymen
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Need advice for my team .. who to play .. I also have 1 free transfer .

    Pope
    Cancelo - Saliba - Trippier
    Salah (c) - A. Periera - Eze - Martinelli
    Haaland - Jesus - Toney
    SUBS :
    Anderson (Palace) - Gomez (Liverpool)- Gross

    I am thinking of transferring out (Gross) .. and getting one of Rashford or Foden .. but leaning to Rashford as he is in form and I think city will find it tough without Haaland
