With Gameweek 16 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.

It is, of course, the final round of matches before the Premier League takes a break for the World Cup, so whether it’s questions on one-week punts, the best Aleksandar Mitrovic (£6.8m) replacements 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.

    Would you change anything here?

    Pope
    Cancelo Trippier Guehi
    Salah(VC) Foden Saka Martinelli
    Haaland(C) Jesus Wilson
    Ward Andreas Neco Kilman

    1. Pat Bonner

      3 years, 5 months ago

      Any cash itb? 1FT? Wilson is probably weak link but not many options unless you have a bit of cash to upgrade to Nunez

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks but had to sell Mitrovic with my FT

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          So anything would be for a hit? Keep team as is

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Some cheap def punt?

      1. WVA
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        It would be for a hit, Guehi at Forest is fine.

        1. Atimis
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Nothing for the hit, gtg

  3. DagheMunegu
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Who score more ?

    A: Rashford Jesus
    B: Almiron Darwin
    C: Saka Martial

    1. themaindanger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

  4. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Mitro to Martial or Darwin?

    Keep and start Wilson?

    Cheers all!

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      depends who is first on bench. Wilson is the best if he starts

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Have Castagne on bench

    2. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Or could do Wilson Mitro to Kane Solanke -4, thoughts?

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Or Darwin Jesus?

      2. Fuddled FC
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I would probably not take the hit, Mitro > Darwin and hope Wilson starts

    3. Fuddled FC
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I would go Mitro > Darwin

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah that was my initial thought

    4. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Just do Mitro to Nunez. Don't think it's worth a -4 to remove Wilson

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks!

  5. jaywills
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Evening all.

    What do you like here?

    A) Sell Wilson for Jesus, play Andreas
    B) Sell Mitrovic for Martial, hope Wilson plays and bench Andreas

    Thanks

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

    2. Fuddled FC
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B

    3. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Possibly would prefer B

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        But it’s punty

    4. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Probably B

  6. OLLY G
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Which bench order please?

    (A) Andreas
    (B) Andersen
    (C) Guehi?

    Thanks.

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      ABC

      1. Bucket Man
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Agree with this

  7. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Repost from old article

    Best Wilson replacement? 7.8 itb

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Punt on Martial?

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Will he start?

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Slim picking at under 8m. I'd probably hold and use transfer elsewhere

      1. The Philosopher
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Sadly no other transfers to be done this week

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Martial/Solanke maybe? Maybe Edouard if he's back?

          1. The Philosopher
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Eyeing up Martial, but not sure if he starts?

  8. Mane Mane Mane
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Wilson and Foden to Darwin and Rashford for free?

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Nah

  9. LT74
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Take a -4 to bring Gabriel & Darwin in for Dier & Alvarez or just bring in Rashford for free and play Dier/ Dunk (who would you prefer?) if we know Alvarez won't start? Cheers.

    1. Bruno Commando
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      If Alvarez doesn't start, who's your first sub?

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Rashford and play Dier

  10. liboo
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Worthy to sell firmino and get Nunez ?

    Yay or Nay ?!

    1. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Nay

    2. kempc23
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ive done it for free. Mitro and Firmino to Solanke and Darwin

  11. Erez Avni
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    who will score more this gw?

    A. salah & Pereira

    B. KDB & Solanke

    1. FPL_trail_runner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Start 1 of these

      A) Schar
      B) Andreas
      C) Bailey

      1. FPL_trail_runner
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Didnt mean to post here, very close but slightly B

  12. Drogba Legend

    3 years, 5 months ago

    Actually thinking of just saving my FT this week. Don't see too many moves I want to make. Help appreciated.

    Guaita
    Cancelo - White - Webster
    Salah - Foden - Zaha - Rashford
    Haaland - Mitro - Jesus

    Ward - Andreas - Zouma - Neco

    A) Save
    B) Zouma/Webster > 5.1 defender (thinking Konate/Gomez?)
    C) Mitro > 7.4 forward
    D) Something else

    1. TheBiffas
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Just remember you're not saving a ft you're wasting one

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Lack of options to replace Mitro but probably C. Not worth saving with free unlimited changes over WC break and defender change you can't be sure if Gomez or Konate start. Their defence hasn't been great either. Solanke safe or Martial a punt is what i'm thinking

  13. Gassemannen
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Guiata
    Trippier - Cancelo - Castagne
    Salah - Zaha - Maddison - Martinelli
    Haaland (C) - Solanke - Calvert Lewin (!)

    Ward - Pereira - Guehi - Mings

    1 FT. 0.7 ITB. Any suggestions? Thinking DCL -> Jesus. Haaland cap

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      DCL to Nunez or Jesus looks great

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Good move

  14. FPL_trail_runner
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Who to play - pick 2

    A) Schar
    B) Andreas
    C) Solanke
    D) Bailey

    1. PukkiBlinder

      B

      1. FPL_trail_runner

  15. PukkiBlinder

    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Start:
    A- Gross?
    B- Andreas?

    1. FPL_trail_runner
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Andreas from those

      What about mine above 😉

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        B and C (since Pukiblinder clearly couldn’t be arsed to return the favour back to you).

        1. PukkiBlinder
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          You blind?

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

  16. Kante Touch This
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Would you double up on Arsenal defenders or diversify with a Spurs player?

    1. Alcapaul
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      If the Spurs player is Perisic i'd go there. If not double up on Arsenal.

      1. Kante Touch This
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah it would be, however he's played a lot recently so could see him being rested

        1. Alcapaul
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          I think he plays with Sessegnon being out. Worth waiting for Paul O Keefe's predicted line-up on Twitter (@pokeefe1) should be tonight or tomorrow morning latest.

    2. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Go for Perisic for the upside, but don’t count on a clean sheet…

  17. Cak Juris
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Choose one:
    A. Martial + Saka
    B. Nunez + Odegaard
    C. Jesus + Trossard
    D. Robertson + Foden

    1. Vovhund
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Is Kulu a doubt again this gw?

    1. themaindanger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I think he will play. Without Son, Spurs need all the attacking firepower they have. Also, he didn't start midweek, and not playing in the World Cup

  19. Dave2008
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    2ft and 3.5 in the bank.
    Team
    Pope Iverson
    Guehi Trippier Cancelo Creswell Williams
    Saka Foden Almiron Martinelli Andrea's
    Haland Kane Mitrovic

    Would you do
    A Foden and Mitrovic to KDB and Solanke
    B Mitrovic and Pope to Darwin and Allison
    C Mitrovic and Foden to Greenwood and Salah

    1. OptimusBlack
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B

      1. Dave2008
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        So you think that Foden will start ?

    2. themaindanger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B, I think Foden starts this week.

  20. One Wheels Enough
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Who to start?

    A) Pickford (bha)
    or
    B) Ward (whu)

    Or sell one (have 1 FT)

    1. One Wheels Enough
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      not (bha) but (bou)...

    2. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ward

    3. themaindanger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Depends on how much money in the bank. If you can upgrade to Ederson or Allison, I would do that.

  21. Vovhund
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    A. GK transfer not worth it for a week

  22. camarozz
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Foden➡️Rashford

    Toney➡️Nunez - 4

    Chasing 100 pt deficit in my MLs

    1. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I assume you don’t want to wait for lineups? If Foden starts then I’d suggest you keep him and turn Toney into Jesus/Martial instead.

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Why u selling Foden to Rashford ?
      He played 85 minutes yesterday and Foden so much better if he starts

      1. camarozz
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        If he starts. Had him for 5gws of 1 pointers. Sick to death of him

  23. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Generic and shameless RMT post incoming:

    I got 2fts and 0,6 itb, and need to replace Mitro. What would you advice me to do here?

    Pope
    Cancelo Trent Trippier (Guehi, Neco)
    Salah Saka Zaha Martinelli (Pereira)
    Haaland Solanke Mitro*

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Team looks good, maybe Pope downgrade to get Jesus/Nunez for Mitro?

      1. Hurricane Gilbert
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks. I fancy Darwin but unfortunately can’t stretch to him, Jesus is doable tho, but I’m not convinced.

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Slim pickings in forwards all of a sudden isn't it. Maybe Firmino or Martial but not convinced with these ones either!

          1. Hurricane Gilbert
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Indeed. Darwin could be worth a hit over Firmino, so I might actually consider that.

        2. Fabreghastly
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Does a Guehi to Bueno as well as a Pope downgrade give you enough for the Darwin move?

          Darwin might be worth the hit this week

          1. Hurricane Gilbert
            • 10 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            It does, yeah, with Ward coming in for Pope. I think so too, might take the risk.

    2. The Ilfordian
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I’m stuck with Scamacca but expecting a 2pointer. I think some are still singing his praises

  24. FantasyTony
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    what we doing with foden?

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Got KDB

    2. Dosh
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      One last game and never again getting him in!

      1. Old Man

    Anyone please

    Who score more ?

    A: Rashford Jesus
    B: Almiron Darwin
    C: Saka Martial

    Those saving FT you will lose them if you use the Unlimited transfers so fill your boots!

    1. Assisting the assister
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Apparently they can roll into gw17

      1. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I think that’s only if you don’t make transfers (ie lose the unlimited free transfers during the World Cup)

  27. Bigler
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Which pair this week?

    A) Wilson+Alisson
    B) Firmino+Ward

    Gameweek 16 team as it stands. 0.0 itb and 2 FT! Thoughts?

    Pope
    Cancelo Trippier White
    Salah Foden Rashford Almiron Bailey
    Haaland Kane

    Iverson Neco Greenwood Dalot

    1. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Dalot to Dunk/Webster for 1st bench

      Maybe Kane is rested

    Hi Tom

    If it looks like Foden isn’t starting, who would your replacements be and what order? Currently have 3 ARS and MCI

    Zaha, Rashford, Trossard, Mahrez, Kulasevski

    Thanks 🙂

    Any other sources indicate whether Foden will play or not? Debating selling for Maddison this week........

      I'd be amazed if he doesn't (non owner - I sold last week.)
