WHAT IS SLEEPER?

Built like a messenger app, Sleeper launched in 2014 as a place to chat about Fantasy games. Their initial US leagues debuted in 2017 and they’ve now decided to branch into football with some exciting Premier League and La Liga contests.

Pride is taken in its design, aided by initially hiring a bunch of casual fans and first-time Fantasy players to bring out-of-the-box ideas that created a less intimidating interface for new players. And this seems to have worked, as Sleeper continues to gain popularity.

At Scout, our core staff will be playing their Fantasy FC draft game too.

It’s a visually pleasing experience, where the draft order (Snake, Linear or Auction), time per pick and bench size are customised beforehand.

You can even edit the points-scoring system! Try using its chat feature to reach a group decision on whether to keep Fantasy Premier League (FPL) scoring, or add rewards for interceptions, dribbles, shots on target etc.

Post-draft, a waiver system allows unselected players to be acquired and starting line-ups can be adjusted as each Matchday progresses. This is ideal for any surprise player absences.

    Isak, muniz, solanke

    1. mwa1t
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Defense a bit expensive imo. I'd downgrade TAA/Porro and upgrade Winks/Muniz

      1. money face bandwagon

        Thanks!

        • 12 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

  3. LABILLEPOGBATHEGOAT

    what do you think of my latest draft? Don't know if its a bad idea not having haaland.

    Henderson
    TAA- Konsa- Hall
    Saka - Salah- Gordon - Bruno - Eze
    Isak - Solanke

    Fab- Pedro- Barco- Robinson

    1. Hello Palou
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Not a million miles away from my team so I like it.

  4. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Need to decide between:
    A. Garnacho ESR Wood
    B. Gibbs-White Rodger Muniz +0.5

    Which one for you?

    1. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      A.

    2. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      B

  5. nico05
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Which is best?
    A.) Nkunku + Eze + Haaland (Leaves me with no Liv attack)
    B.) Bruno + Salah + Havertz (Leaves me with no City attack)

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      B looks better some how

      1. nico05
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        Thanks Bobby. That would be my B team. How's that look?
        Henderson
        Martinez Saliba Gvardiol
        Bruno Garnacho Salah Saka
        Solanke Havertz Isak

        1. Bobby Digital
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          Yeh looks strong... Arsenal off to a good start and you're golden

          1. nico05
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 11 months ago

            Cheers mate - anything obvious to switch with 0.5 spare or would you save it?

  6. Bobby Digital
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    What happened to going cheap at the back because of the BPS changes? I'm still going with 4x 4.5m and 1x 4.0m 😛

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Wow, that is cheap! I'm torn, TAA and Saliba are the ones tempting me.....

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        7m for TAA is Eze/Mbeumo money, don't know if he's worth it

    2. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      What's your team look like mate?

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        Hendo
        Hall Quansah Myko
        Salah Jota Gordon Nkunku
        Haaland Isak(C) Solanke

        Matthews Robinson Sangare THB

        1. nico05
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          Nice team! Def slightly weak like you said above but some real firepower and balance there. One of best Salah and Haaland drafts I've seen on paper tbh

          1. Bobby Digital
            • 8 Years
            1 year, 11 months ago

            Cheers mate

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      It's doable, if things go wrong there's a mighty WC 😛

  7. LangerznMash
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    English players only squad.
    Pope
    TAA, White, Quansah
    Palmer, Saka, Foden, Gordon, MGW
    Watkins, Solanke
    (Bentley, Johnson, Harwood, Jebbison)

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      You have missed Rashford and Sterling 😆 😉

  8. MikeLowrey
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Last 3 spots

    A) Robinson ,Salah, Joao Pedro
    B) Gabriel, Gordon, Havertz

    1. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      B - Much more balanced imo

  9. zensum
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    For GW1 only:
    Would u prefer? Who pair will score more?

    A) Rogers + Gabriel or Saliba
    B) ESR + Porro

    Appreciate your help

    1. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      A

    2. zensum
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Anyone else? I’m also leaning towards A for GW1 but anyone any more insights?

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I like B because I think ESR is more nailed than Rogers

  10. Tonyawesome69

    Rodri is not in the squad for the game this weekend, Guardiola says. "No chance."

      Back up the sleeve for later in the season.

  11. waltzingmatildas

    Hi! Getting excited for KO now!
    Last tweaks for my team:
    Henderson Fabianski
    TAA Saliba Robinson Barco Johnson
    Son Bruno Jota ESR Rogers
    Haaland Isak Armstrong

    I have 0.5 in the bank
    Would you:
    A) upgrade Johnson to Hall
    B) upgrade Armstrong to Munoz
    C) keep it for Isak to Watkins

    1. HUMAN TRIPOD
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      B) Fulham have decent attack in Prem whereas Southampton unproven.

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      B

    3. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Cheers both.
      I'll just have to hope I don't have any problems elsewhere so I can still find the 0.5 for Isak to Watkins!

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        I have no plans of taking out Isak

        1. waltzingmatildas
          • 15 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          Any plans for Villa attack?

  12. Stimps
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Szmodics signs for Ipswich, last seasons Championship top scorer. If 5.5 be worth a punt from GW3 onwards

    1. mwa1t
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Yeah will definitely be a good option

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Oh wow, I didn't realise they were still shopping for a forward. Very interesting....

  13. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Palace mid Rak-Sakyi (4.5) confirmed on loan to Sheffield Utd, new 8th attacker option?

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Sorry, mixed up, SHU not in PL

    2. Jaws
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      What a shame. Great talent! For FPL purposes (8th attacker) would have been great to see him ending up somewhere in LEI or SOT.

    3. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      This surely reduces chance of Eze move to City?

  14. cutch
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    A) Gabriel
    B) Pedro Porro + 0.5
    C) Zinchenko + 1.0

    1. zensum
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Currently on B but swinging towards A

  15. klopptimusprime
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    a, Nkunku + Porro (352)
    b, Solanke + 4.5 Def (343)
    c, Gordon + 4.5 Def (352)

    Thinking Qunasah / Hall for 4.5

    1. mwa1t
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      B or C. Maybe B if you have Isak.

  16. northstandnoise

    Is there a last man standing league this year. If so does anyone have the code please

    1. Merlin the Wraith
      • 10 Years

      1. northstandnoise

      2. St Pauli Walnuts
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        I think I bought my Mrs one of them once.

  17. mwa1t
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Pope

    Maatsen Saliba Quansah

    Bailey Nkunku Salah ESR

    Havertz Haaland Isak

    (Slicker Carvalho Faes Johnson)

    GTG? Repost because bottomed

  18. Saka White Rice
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Is Gordon a bit of a risk then?

    1. Salahbrate
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Why would he be

      1. mwa1t
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        Howe hinting that he's not quite up to speed

        1. Saka White Rice
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          What did he say?

          1. mwa1t
            • 5 Years
            1 year, 11 months ago

            Something along the lines of players who've been at internationals are a bit further behind the rest of the group

            1. Hello Palou
              1 year, 11 months ago

              'The group'.

              Anyone using that term should be shot.

              I'll do it.

              1. mwa1t
                • 5 Years
                1 year, 11 months ago

                What's wrong with 'the group'? haha

  19. urosz
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    my Haaland+Salah+Son version:

    Henderson (Turner)
    Saliba Hall VDV (Faes, Robinson)
    Salah Son Paqueta ESR (Winks)
    Haaland Isak Woods

    Not sure on VDV (4.5) and Paqueta (6.0) but it's hard..

    Help?

    1. mwa1t
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I like it. Better options than Paqueta at 5.0/5.5 and VDV is an interesting one but generally solid team imo

  20. Salahbrate
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    A) Rogers & Gordon

    B) Murphy & Gibbs White

    1. cutch
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I'm currently on B

      1. Salahbrate
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 11 months ago

        You think Gordon won't start with the latest statement from Howe?

        1. cutch
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 11 months ago

          It's more than I fancy Gibbs-White over Rogers...

  21. Ibracadebruyne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Bench one of…

    A. Hall
    B. Quansah
    C. Muñoz

    1. Rassi
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      C or B

    2. Regista_
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      I'd bench Muñoz

    3. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Quansah. Tricky early KO against a good pressing team that will really test their attempts to play out from the back

    4. Sun God Nika
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      they all will concede it is the gw1 way of life

      Id go quansah at least other two have chance of attacking returns

  22. Salahbrate
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    Best 5.0 midfielder long term?

    1. The Mentaculus
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 11 months ago

      Bobb 😥

      Not many options left. Maybe Rogers but I'm not really sure about him. Carvalho in future but maybe not from GW1.

      Lots more options at 5.5

  23. cutch
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    A) Saka + Wood
    B) Jota + Havertz + 0.5

    (already have Liverpool attack covered with Salah and Forest attack covered with MGW)

  24. LABILLEPOGBATHEGOAT
    • 13 Years
    1 year, 11 months ago

    a. Bruno + eze
    b. son + esr

    Is Salah worth it?

    a) Salah + Quansah

    or

    b) Saka + Trent
