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 â€˜Rate My Team’ tool available in the Premium Members Area.

    Bench one of Martinelli or Mitoma or Maddison?

      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Whoever you pick is getting points,

    2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos

      Mitoma for me. Seems like a low scoring game incoming. Give Maddy one more chance home

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

        Mitoma hasn't blanked in a while. RMT says bench Marti

    3. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Marti

    4. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Never bench Marti

    5. Qaiss
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      That is not a decision I would like to make.. if forced, probably Mitoma

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

      Plus it was 0-1 to Spurs in the corresponding fixture. Tight game.

    7. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Bench Mitoma

  2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 11 Years

    Mee,Trippier,Chilwell
    Saka,Maddison,Mitoma,Rashford
    Kane,Watkins(C),Toney
    Sub:Steele,Martinelli,Estupinan,Shaw

      Can you not take a hit to raise funds?

      1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        I can

    2. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Can you -4 it?

    3. mdm
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Take a hit

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

      Roll

  3. JELLYFISH
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Which move guys?

    A) Shaw > Mings
    B) Bruno F > Grealish
    C) both for -4

    1. Victor6359
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A

    2. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      B

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

      A

  4. FPLMACKEM
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Kepa
    Trippier, Chilwell, Shaw
    Saka, Rashford, Bruno, Mac allister
    Toney, Kane, Watkins (c)

    Raya, March, Botman, Estupinan

    1FT 3.2 ITB

    A Roll
    B Toney and Saka to Haaland (c) and Grealish -4

    Any other suggestions?

    1. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      B but Bruno over Saka

  5. Wax
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Quick one lads, got 2FT

    A. Salah + Toney to Haaland + Maddison/Barnes
    B. Saka + Toney to Haaland + Andreas
    C. None

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

      Getting rid of Salah? I'd keep Saka, so probably A but with Barnes. Bournemouth rubbish down their right.

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

    Toney > Haaland and Shaw to Mings for a -4 OR bench Shaw and just get Haaland in? Means I will have to play either Mee or White.

    1. mdm
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Second one and play Mee

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I see no logical reason in Shaw to mings for a hit

    3. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Just Haaland

  7. Hint
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Start Mac or March?

  8. Bezz82
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    1. Play Estupinan or Henry?
    2. Play Toney or Mitoma?

    I’m thinking Estupinan and Mitoma

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      ET

  9. Jerry C-137
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Saka + Toney > Grealish + Haaland (-4)?

    0.1m short of doing Toney to Haaland without a hit.

  10. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    I have Pope and Trippier.

    Shaw injured. Should I play Botman or Gabriel?

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Botman

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Gabriel

  11. XX SMICER XX
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Repost - My team is awful. Open to a hit, what is best? I’m leaning towards A.

    A. Havertz to Watkins
    B. Kane to Haaland
    C. Shaw & Nacho to Malacia & Watkins -4
    D. Odegaard & Havertz to Mahrez & Watkins -4
    E. Early WC

    Kepa Steele
    Trippier Henry Castagne Shaw Chilwell
    Salah Odegaard Bruno Rashford Mitoma
    Kane Havertz Nacho
    0.4 ITB

    1. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      D 100%

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      You need Haaland at all cost. When do you plan on using wc? 34?

      1. XX SMICER XX
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        33/34

  12. pnitishmk

    Kepa
    Trippier, Chilwell, Shaw
    Rashford, Bruno, Madisson, Mitoma
    Kane, Watkins, Toney
    (Raya, March, Mee, Botman)

    Need to take a hit for Haaland, who would you suggest?

    1. pnitishmk
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A) Shaw to Mings

    Good afternoon all!! Best way to facilitate getting Haaland in for Toney, have no FH left….

    A- Saka to Martinelli(exact money)
    B- Chilwell to Tarkowski(wil be benched) have James
    C- Bruno to Barnes

    Cheers everyone!!!

  14. NikKaiseR
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Guys who is this Moreno guy everyone is talking about? I haven't watched him play, does he have any attacking threat? Why not Mings?

    1. JonnyOnionRings
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Very attacking Villa left back. Looks a good player going forward

  15. -GK22-
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    A) play mee it estup
    B) transfer shaw out for -4

    Other defenders are Schar and trippier

  16. Il Capitano
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    0FT 2m ITB

    Kepa
    Trippier Schar Estupinan
    Maddison Rashford Mitoma Saka
    Haaland Kane Watkins

    Raya - March Mee Shaw*

    GTG? Defenders a bit meh this week but not worth ditching Shaw for a hit I guess.

  17. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Salah to KDB, no Haaland?

    1. mdm
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Nah. You need Hauland

  18. mdm
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Who to play?

    1. Mee (NEW)
    2. Estu (tot)

    A. March (tot)
    B. Mitoma (tot)

    1. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      1B

    2. Ask Yourself
      • 9 Years

      1B

  19. Heavy Cream
    • 10 Years

    Watkins or Toney to Haaland? Thanks guys

    1. mdm
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Toney obv

      1. Heavy Cream
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Why is it obvious?

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

          It’s fairly obvious. Toney could do well but is one yellow card from a 2 match ban and also due a long ban for breaching betting rules

          1. Heavy Cream
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 10 months ago

            If it was obvious to me I wouldn’t ask. Being obvious is subjective. I don’t need to know what someone else finds obvious, just someone else’s opinion.

            1. Hint
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 6 Years
              2 years, 10 months ago

              Lol you asked for opinions and he's given you a strong one.

              1. Heavy Cream
                • 10 Years
                2 years, 10 months ago

                You’ve missed the point but well done. Thanks for coming.

    2. Not again Shirley
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Who is your other striker out of interest. I wouldn’t lose Watkins when they have Forest at home. Toney hmm. Not sure. Not convinced on Haaland TBH. As others have said, massive match against BM midweek.

  20. Ask Yourself
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Double up on newcastle def and play botman or split the risk and play Henry?

    1. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Imy Doubling

      1. Heavy Cream
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 10 months ago

        Sorry, bank holiday beers. You get the point 🙂

  21. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Start one:

    a) Toney
    b) Andreas

    1. mdm

      A

      1. Reece’s Pieces

        2 years, 10 months ago

        A

    2. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      A

  22. Gazzpfc
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Martinelli over Mitoma surely

    1. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Yes. I love Mitoma but Marti should never be benched

  23. SKENG
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Who would you bench out of these? Currently on A.

    A) Isak (bre)
    B) March (tot)
    C) Mac Allister (tot)

  24. Reece’s Pieces
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

  25. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Would u?

    Salah, Toney -> Haaland, Bruno (-4pts)

    1. Reece’s Pieces
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      Not Bruno. Sure you can find a better mid than him

  26. Teddy10
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Who do I bench?! Any help appreciated!

    Rashford, Maddison, Saka, Macalister, Mitoma
    Haaland, Kane, Toney

    Toney or Saka maybe or one of the Brighton mids

    1. Reece’s Pieces
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      I’d bench Mac

  27. Pep's Money Laundry
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 10 months ago

    Pick one ?

    A. Shaw to Guehi (lee) -4
    B. Shaw to Mings (AVL) -4
    C. Play Henry (NEW)

    Not FH32, so A or B gives a possibility of 11 players in gw32

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      C imo. You can easily take Shaw out next GW or before GW32 deadline.

    2. Heavy Cream
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 10 months ago

      C

    3. THFC4LIFE

  29. THFC4LIFE
