With Gameweek 30 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) almost upon us, five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman is here to help with your pre-deadline dilemmas for the next hour.

Whether it’s questions on Haaland, Chelsea assets, chip strategy 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.

    Either will allow me to do Mbuemo -> Haaland

    1. Atimis
      • 9 Years

      A

    2. Heavy Cream

      C

    2. Paqueta Rice
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A & B on the list is kind of funny.

      C

    4. Monster Muppets

    5. Men in green tights

    6. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Thanks, I was leaning towards March or Maddison, I just know that this will be the week that March urns his chances into points!

  6. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Which is the better strategy: FH32/WC34 or WC34/FH37?

  7. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    A) Toney to Haaland
    B) Gabriel and Ings to Moreno and Haaland -4
    C) Maddison and Ings to Grealish and Haaland -4

    TIA

  8. Skout
    • 6 Years

    Toney to Haaland for a free a no brainer?

  9. Schär the love

    Trying to resist the Haaland fomo here- he has had one double-digit haul away from home so far this season (Bou), but we’re expecting reduced minutes this GW. He did miss several big chances in recent away fixtures, but Southampton’s defence is conceding less than 2 big chances per 90 over their last 6 according to blackbox. Is he really essential to transfer in? I have the funds to bring for Toney but he is doing well and has good fixtures and xmins. Headache.

    1. Woutiraldi
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I agree, won’t bring him in

  10. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Damn, our youth are good - in the U16 euro tournament we (Palace) beat Juventus 3-1 earlier this week and then beat Barcelona 4-0 today, sadly suspect we going to loose some of these academy players to the big fish over the coming years 🙁

  11. Trip Hazard
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Dilemma - do I:

    a) roll free transfer and pray Haaland blanks?
    b) Or make a -4 to get Haaland in this week and jump on that bandwagon?

    Transfers likely to be Salah > Grealish and Toney > Haaland - not enough ITB to just do the latter, otherwise a simpler decision!

  12. El Copo
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Play Kepa or Raya, bearing in mind I have Chilwell?

    Play Gabriel or Estupinan?

    1. Saint Tim
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Raya and Gabriel

  13. wakenbagel
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Martinelli vs Saka and Gabriel vs Estupinan for the starting XI?

    1. Saint Tim
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Saka and Gabriel

      1. wakenbagel
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks. Will go Saka most likely but might go Estu in the defence. Got in Shaw last week just to avoid this dilemma 😀

    Evening all, I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do with my team. Conscious of trying to get Haaland back in and Havertz is the obvious candidate to get rid of, but lack of money itb means a big downgrade elsewhere and I'm struggling to see where; Madison to fodder, Bruno to march/Macallister... Very interested in any ideas:

    Raya/Kepa
    Trippier, Chilwell, Pinnock, Mings, Estupinan
    Bruno, Saka, Rashford, Maddison, Mitoma
    Kane, Toney, Havertz

    1ft, 0.4m itb

    1. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      This is a tricky one but I like it. Pinnock and Kane out.

  15. Brendan.Cooper
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Salah worth holding for minutes and possible flair/goal returns, or transfer for a punt on Grealish or KDB?
    Pep’s minutes management scares me.

    Also value of
    A) Saka
    B) Martinelli
    C) Isak
    this weekend. Gotta bench 1.

    1. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years

      Hold, it's not just the flair.
