Our Members Videos continue with another installment ahead of the Gameweek 7 deadline.

This week, it’s another Scoutcast special as Andy and Hall of Fame #19 Seb combine for a stream exclusive to Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout. 

Once again, the pair are looking into the timing of Wildcards, especially in a world where managers are suddenly overwhelmed by a sea of yellow and orange flags.

They will be using the various tools available to subscribers in the Members Area to make the right decision both in terms of which Gameweek to pull the trigger and which players to aim for.

The video is available to watch via the embedded link below, live from 8pm BST.

There was also a live Q&A earlier today if you’re in the mood for more visual offerings, plus a whole host of other content in the Gameweek 7 playlist.

    Botman should be ok?

  2. Lollabear
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Lions like Maddison, saka and Botman will be unsure? I’m on a wc right now. Woulf you guys transfer out some of them to be safe?

    1. Tcheco
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I took out Saka & Botman on WC. Kept Maddison. Get Trips

    2. Yozzer
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I would hate to be on a wildcard now. Maddison and Saka are risky. I can see a world where both are benched . Botman is ok apparently.

  3. Tcheco
    3 years, 1 month ago

    On WC:

    A. Watkins Mitoma JWP

    B. Alvarez Diaby Bowen

    1. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

    3. Crunchie
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B

  4. gart888
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Chilwell to

    A) Burn
    B) Gabriel

    Already have Botman. Only have Saka from Arsenal.

    Both moves would give me the money to do Bruno to Son next week for Luton.

    1. JoeSoap
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Big Mike
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Can you afford Trippier?

      1. gart888
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Not even close. I've got Salah and 0 ITB.

    3. Tcheco
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

    4. FOO FIGHTER
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Who are your other defenders?

      1. gart888
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Estupinan, Botman, Gusto, Kabore

        1. FOO FIGHTER
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Do you really want to play double Newcastle defence vs Bowen and JWP?

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Away to WHU GW8?

            1. gart888
              3 years, 1 month ago

              But in GW8 Gabriel faces city away. That's even worse. And Estupinan goes Liverpool away. Oh boy

          2. gart888
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Not particularly... Yeah I kind of feel I go Gabriel just to diversify a little.

    5. gart888
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I guess I'm just not so sure why Newcastle's fixtures are so preferred to Arsenal's.

      Aside from City (where I'd bench Gabriel) their upcoming fixtures are great too.

      1. gart888
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Wait, I can't bench Gabriel that week because Gusto and Kabore are trash... hmmm lol

      2. FOO FIGHTER
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Get Gabriel this week and a Spurs defender next week even if it means going for VDV. At least you will have great fixtures from him.

        1. gart888
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I can't afford any spurs defenders unless I sell one of Estupinan, Gabriel, Botman next week. And it means I don't get Son for Luton.

          I think I just suck it up and have atrocious defensive fixtures for 1 GW.

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            3 years, 1 month ago

            van de Ven is 4.5

            1. FOO FIGHTER
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Anyway, just a suggestion.

            2. gart888
              3 years, 1 month ago

              Oh wait, I was already accounting for upgrading Bruno to Son.

              Yeah, I could do Gusto to vdv (or Udogie) next GW if I don't get Son. Hmmm.

    6. FantasyClub
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Funny thing is I like this fixture vs LIV for Son more than Luton away.
      Have you seen the Luton pitch? Not easy there

      1. gart888
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Well I can't bring Son in this week without taking a hit (or ditching Salah) anyway.

  5. simong1
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Bring in Botman or Cash for Chilwell?

    1. Tcheco
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Cash if you have another NEW defender

  6. NZREDS
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Wow so Lisandro is out for three months, reggy is out, correct me if I’m wrong but that leaves a defensive line up of dalot slabs linds and evans lol. God speed

    1. Goro Majima
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Varane, until he gets injured again. Amrabat might play LB. But yeah, it's kind of terrifying looking at it!

      1. NZREDS
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Oh yeah true didn’t think about Amrabat, but yeh definitely dire straights

    2. jacob1989
      3 years, 1 month ago

      What's so great about lisandro anyway?not reguilon?

      1. jacob1989
        3 years, 1 month ago

        * or reguilon?

  7. Rash
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on this lot please

    Onana
    Gvardiol chilwell Estupian
    Saka son rashford mitoma sterling
    Alvarez Haaland

    Turner Archer Udogie Beyer

    1ft 1.4itb WC intact

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Chilwell to Trippier

      1. The Count of Monte Cristo
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I agree with this

  8. nerd_is_the_werd
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Saka ---> Fernandes (-4)?

    Reasons:

    a) Potential injury risk pile-up - could be down to 10 players or a 1-pointer for Saka on the bench - Higher potential ceiling for Fernandes, penalties for Man Utd.
    b) Man Utd have better fixtures GW7 and GW8 and 2 home games,
    Avoid tough home fixture v Man City (h)
    c) Price drop for Saka, and can recoup 0.1 if it goes ahead,
    WC available to rebuy when convenient.

    1. gart888
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No. That's not worth a hit.

    2. Traction Engine Foot
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No way

    3. The Count of Monte Cristo
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I can understand your logic but still don’t think it is worth it

    4. nerd_is_the_werd
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Thanks all

  9. One for All
    3 years, 1 month ago

    What's the purple star icon on FPL Salah, Bowen, Mitoma, Haaland, Alvarez?

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      3 years, 1 month ago

      highest scoring players over the season

      1. One for All
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cool

  10. Mata of opinion
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Gtg on this? Bench correct order?

    Onana (Turner)
    Estu Beyer Botman (Gvardiol, Udogie)
    Bowen Sterling Rashford Son (Eze)
    Alvarez Morris Haaland

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yes looks good

      1. Mata of opinion
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks mate

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Really good!

    3. nerd_is_the_werd
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn't play Sterling tbh.
      Could just go with Gvardiol, probably has a higher chance of a clean-sheet than Sterling getting a return.

  11. tim
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Need to take a hit to sort out def?

    Botman Saliba Kabore (Estu Baldock)

  12. The Pep Revolution
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Do you think Trippier is worth the extra 2m over Botman? It could help in having Salah

    1. The Count of Monte Cristo
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I would side towards no

    2. have you seen cyan
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Botman is not going to score that often. Trippier however is probably going to get an attacking return most games. So I would argue yes he is worth it.

    3. Traction Engine Foot
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It depends who else it forces you to miss out on.

    4. Crunchie
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I personally only went Botman, LIvermento playing PL gives him his rest, but plays 70 mins for a defender is nice

      I only went Botman for that reason. Getting Salah

  13. Ange Ball
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Which one Mbeumo to

    A) Gordon
    B) Bowen
    C) JWP

    1. One for All
      3 years, 1 month ago

      B but I would hold

  14. Lollabear
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Would you chance playing livramento?

  15. The Count of Monte Cristo
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Thinking Chilwell —> Cash (FT) and hope for the best?

    Pickford
    Chilwell * — Estupiñán — Botman
    Salah — Maddison — Saka — Mitoma — Mburmo
    Haaland — Álvarez

    Turner — Udogie — Baldock — Mubama [1FT + 0.4m ITB]

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It's a solid move

    2. Crunchie
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He might not get you much this week (unless he carries on his attacking threat of course, but is great going forward

  16. Heiro
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ok so I have zero bench but Botman Saliba Saka.

    Saka to Son? Or stick some cheap DGW defenders and cover one of Saka Botman Saliba?

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'd probably get a DGWer so long as it doesn't mess up your future plans

    2. Crunchie
      3 years, 1 month ago

      yes I would, set up for the Luton Games (this week might be good anyway)

  17. Traction Engine Foot
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Best option here please with 1ft and 0.7 in the bank?

    A Gusto to Kabore/Burn/Cash
    B Saka to Son/Bowen/JWP
    C Roll ft and hope I get 11 out

    If I get in Kabore I'd probably have to wildcard next week

    Pickford
    Estu Botman Beyer
    Salah Saka Rashford Sterling Mitoma
    Haaland Alvarez

    Turner Udogie Gusto Osula

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Saka is with the Arsenal squad. I would ditch Sterling.

      But at the end of the day, your team so go with your gut.

      1. Traction Engine Foot
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I'm just worried about a cameo from Saka, but he will probably start. I'll most likely keep him and sell Rashford for Son next week as I can't afford him if I sell Sterling

    2. The Count of Monte Cristo
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I’m pretty sure you’ll get 11 out.
      I’d be tempted to hold tbh

      1. Traction Engine Foot
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

    3. Crunchie
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Saka to Son.

      Saka scores goals at or points at home

  18. The Mighty Whites
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Are any of these moves worth it to do JWP to Bowen (on WC)

    Current team is:
    Areola - Turner
    Trppier - Cash - Botman - Udogie - Kabore
    Salah - Son - Maddison - Diaby - JWP
    Haaland - Alvarez - Archer

    A - Trippier to Burn
    B - Cash to 4.0 defender
    C - Maddison to Gordon
    D - Diaby to Gordon

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe D, but I'd be worried about the yellow cards.

    2. Crunchie
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No, keep Diaby

      1. Crunchie
        3 years, 1 month ago

        and Maddison. is JWP is a great long term fixture

  19. have you seen cyan
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone want to join me on my DCL punt? 😀

    You can join in the celebrations tomorrow when he braces.

    1. Meechum
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I'm taking a punt with Beto lol see you on the other side brother.

      1. have you seen cyan
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Ha! Nice one, good luck

  20. abaalan
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Any chance Mpanzu plays both games?
    Chances of Saka starting?

  21. The Gravless Wonder
    3 years, 1 month ago

    If you had to bench one of
    Dan burn home v burnley
    Zinchenko away v bournemouth
    Young home v luton
    Zouma home to Sheffield utd
    Who would u bench good sirs

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Coin toss literally

  22. CoracAld2831
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Please choose a move:

    A: Jackson -> Wissa/Morris
    B: Gusto -> Kabore
    C: Jackson, Gusto -> Morris, Botman

    I have Trippier & Mbeumo already

    1. CoracAld2831
      3 years, 1 month ago

      C is for -4.

    2. Stranger Mings
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A to Morris

  23. g40steve
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Play Mbeumo or Raheem?

  24. TBL
    3 years, 1 month ago

    any rotation risk for Cash going forward?

  25. Eightball
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Start one:

    A) Cash
    B) Estupinan

    I think it's very close. Cash has the home game but estu probably a little more attacking potential. Not sure either will keep a clean sheet.

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Cash

  26. davewg59
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I have JWP and Bowen. Is that too much or go JWP to Gordon?

  27. Stranger Mings
    3 years, 1 month ago

    please pick?
    A) braithwaite (own Pickford)
    B) kabore (but was going 2 play beyer gw7)
    C) bell (as above)
    D) Taylor (but own beyer)

  28. nerd_is_the_werd
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Will Tarkowski be able to make the price rise before GW7 starts?

  29. TBL
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Schar or Cash

    1. Goat
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Schar.

      My decision is Botman or Cash. A bit more difficult

  30. Jack Frost
    3 years, 1 month ago

    FFS I have 7 check engine lights on my team. 3 red Edouard, Gusto, Baldock
    3 yellow Botman, Saliba, Maddison
    1 Orange Saka

    I have one FT and a headache. I gather the yellows will play and the orange might. Swell.

    1. Crunchie
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Same for everyone.

      Saka has travelled, might not start.

      Check the team news, think the others will start
