It’s Friday night, so it’s time for another exclusive video for Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout.

There threatened to be an FPL BlackBox takeover this evening but it’s a full-on Scoutcast affair instead (Mark and Az both had late work commitments), with Andy North joined by Hall of Fame #68, Seb Wassell.

The pair will be chatting over on our YouTube channel about their own teams and how they’re approaching Gameweek 26 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL).

Andy and Seb are live from 20:00 GMT, with the stream watchable via the embedded video below.

And if you’ve missed the start or indeed the whole of the live broadcast, you can of course still watch the stream back from the start in its entirety.

Only Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout will be able to watch the video below, so make sure you sign up today to get access to not just this stream but also exclusive YouTube content from Andy, Mark and others throughout the 2022/23 campaign.

    Still not sure whether to play WC or not? If I take one extra hIt on current team the following is the difference between the two between GW27 & GW29.

    Does the WC look worth it in your opinion?

    GW27
    WC will have Estupinan & Pinnock as extra doubles
    GW28
    Tark/Watkins v Pinnock/Botman/Kane (WC)
    GW29 (BB)
    Tark/Bueno v Botman/Estupinan (2 extra doublers)

    Ode vs Martinelli is a difficult one to pick

    Martinelli looking good and linking well with Trossard. Short term pick with a high ceiling.

    Ode is a flat track bully and a good long term pick

    Potentially a different crowd, so opinions are welcome;

    I fancy the Saka + Odegaard + Martinelli triple up. Am I risking losing too many easy points by not going Zinchenko/Gabriel?

      Not a bad strategy but there is a lot of good and pretty cheap midfielders so is using three slots on the one team the best move..

      Not sure if it was one of your posts I responded to with this, but for me it's about lack of flexibility for other targets. 3x Arsenal means 2 slots. Rashford is probably taking another. Doesn't give you a lot of options for a really prime area. Yes, you can sell one of the Arsenal mids, but then you are taking another transfer to get back to the triple

        Yeah it was mate. Nah you all are right. It is a risk, especially when there is Mitoma/Rashford/March/Maddison/Salah/Bruno/Foden all vying for spots.

      I think 3 is a bit overkill as they aren’t gonna score 4 every week.
      2 Ars MIDs + Rash + BRI mid + Maddy is what I believe to be ideal moving forwards. And paired with Zinchenko as the most attacking def.

    Value wise...

    Schar or Botman
    Henry or Mee

      I’d save the money and use elsewhere.
