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.

    A) Chillwell
    B) E.R.
    C) Second Newcastle defender
    D) Keep James and play Estup. if James doesn't make it.

With Odegard and Martinelli I guess if you go with one the other is bound to haul. I'm on Odegard at the mo just for security of minutes

    Kepa
    Gabriel Mee Trippier
    Saka Ødegaard Rashford March
    Haaland Kane Toney
    [Raya BrunoF Estupiñán Botman]
    0FT £1M

    Difficult decisions this week:

    1) Bench one of BrunoF/March/Toney
    2) Risk starting Estupiñán instead of Trippier?
    3) Captain Haaland (NEW) or Saka (BOU)?

    Two questions for WC please?

    1. Zinchenko should be nailed for Arsenal even though Tierney is around..surely go all out for league and if rotated will be in Europe?

    2. Shaw is 5.3 but 5.1 for me if he goes down tonight does he go down for me?

      1. Zinchenko is first choice. Tierney cannot play the inverted role as effective as Zinchenko. May get subbed early due to hectic schedule.

      2. Yes assuming 5.1 is selling price

      I'm planning to use it when I need it. If I don't need it I'll just use it as a FH later.

        Sensible- I am not desperate to use but assume if WC27 can avoid FH28?
