With the Gameweek 28 deadline around 24 hours away, our in-house team of Sam, Marc, Tom and Neale each put forward the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) names they think should make the final Scout Picks.

Our panelists submit 18-man player longlists with the focus just on the upcoming Gameweek – and with various stipulations, as detailed in the next section.

ABOUT THE SCOUT SQUAD

Everything you ever wanted to know about the FPL Bonus Point System - part one

Our four resident writers are solely focused on the upcoming Gameweek with their selections. Anything outside of this window, we cover in the regularly updated Watchlist.

The players who get the most votes are much more likely to make the Scout Picks, although the final XI can’t exceed £83.0m – so occasionally, cheaper alternatives have to be found.

Each of our writers must meet the following requirements for this feature:

  • At least one sub-£5.0m goalkeeper
  • At least one sub-£5.0m defender
  • At least one sub-£6.0m midfielder
  • At least one sub-£7.0m forward
  • No more than three players from the same club

    Looking at a -12 this gw, but it's really only a -4 !

    No chips, only 7 starters, have to maximise upside this gw then deal with next gw separately

    Ward
    Tripper. TAA. Tarkowski
    Salah. Saka. Martinelli. Rashford
    Haaland. Toney. Nacho

    Ederson. Mitoma . Estupinan. Bueno

    Haaland to Kane
    Sarah to Madison
    Mitoma to Son
    Taa to Chilwell

    Chilwell and Maddison also double in dgw 29, both have good upside

    Son a punt with upside, transfer to Bri mid next week

    Kane is Kane , hope Spurs put in a performance at sou

    Thoughts appreciated

      It’s-12 mate - many have 11 starters without any hits. It’s going to be a very bumpy ride for you next few weeks with no chips!

        For my team it's a - 4, plus some flexibility in terms of who I bring in...

        Those with 11 starters will be inclined not to change or take hits, which will stop them from getting the likes of Chilwell , Son, Maddison etc

        So decent chance it could work in my favour

    Saka➡️Trossard

    Royal➡️chilwell for a hit is crazy right ?

    Leeds fans. What are the chances of Gnonto starting?

    Thinking of selling for Watkins -4

    1. Sho-kun
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      no why do you do that?

    Everyone tipping the same players (again). Wait for similar scores and another week treading water in mini-leagues.

    Progress in the rankings this week (and next) will come down to number of points penalties incurred by managers.

  5. BusbySwede

    Have 11 starters, i hope.
    1 FT, roll it or do Mee to Chilwell now?

    Kepa
    Gabriel, Trippier, Mings, Mee
    Saka, Odegaard, Maddison
    Kane, Toney, Watkins

    1. dustbin89
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Roll

  6. FantasyHero
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    I'm taking a hit to bring in Watkins for Darwin. Worth taking another hit to bring in Son and play him instead of Tark?

    I'll be wildcarding gw29

    1. FantasyHero
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Or I guess Tatk to chilwell

  7. dansmith1985

    Have played my FH,not sure who I should play between Cash and Maddison though?

    1. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      I would say Villa likely to concede.

  8. Elc1992
    • 2 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    So.. im gonna take a -4 to get 11 players on the pitch.

    Currently thinking
    Raya
    Trippier Botman Saliba Mee and X
    Odegaard Saka Madison
    Kane Toney

    Trying to decide between Cash and Dawson. Can't afford Chillwell. Any thoughts?

  9. Kelvinngsl76

    Should I

    A. Take a -4 to change Bueno+Salah to Chilwell+Maddison?

    B. Take a -8 to change Bueno+Salah+Andreas to Chilwell+Maddison+Martinelli?

    1. Kelvinngsl76
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 8 months ago

      Just to add, if I change 2 players, I will have 9 players for GW28.

      If I change 3 players, I will have 10 players for GW28.

      1. dustbin89
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 8 months ago

        B then

  10. GC123
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 8 months ago

    Do we know realistically which sides will blank GW32? Had hoped to not have to use FH in GW28 but on top of Haaland, Bruno, DDG, Rash, Mitoma and Estupinan blanking there are now rumours Ward will be dropped and Badiashile has been out of favour. Do I need to pull the trigger?

  11. dustbin89

    Hard decision, medium term, who scores more points.

    A) Martinelli
    B) Maddison
