Making good Fantasy Premier League (FPL) decisions often means digging through lots of data.

Who has the strongest underlying numbers? Which players consistently rack up defensive contributions? When does an asset’s fixture run improve? And when two options look almost inseparable, which one should you actually pick?

Our brand-new FPL Stats Centre aims to make those decisions easier by bringing a huge amount of useful information together in one place.

Available to Chief Scout Members, managers can deep-dive into player and team statistics, analyse attacking and defensive numbers, compare assets and use our Rate My Team (RMT) projections to plan ahead.

Whether you’re searching for a differential, planning several Gameweeks ahead or simply trying to settle a difficult 50/50 decision, here are some of the ways our new-look FPL tools can help.

FPL Stats Centre

EXPLORE HUNDREDS OF FPL PLAYER STATS

At the heart of the new Stats Centre is our sortable player database.

Managers can analyse hundreds of FPL assets across five main categories: Overview, Attacking, Expected, Defending and Involvement.

That means you can quickly switch between different areas depending on what you’re looking for, rather than having to sift through one enormous table.

There are also filters for season, position and team, while different data types allow managers to change how the numbers are presented.

The Players, Per GW and Teams tabs offer further ways to explore the data, while an Advanced search provides even more control.

There is also a Watchlist, allowing managers to save interesting players and quickly return to them later.

RATE MY TEAM POINTS PROJECTIONS

Identifying a good FPL asset is only half the battle. Buying them at the right time can be just as important.

Our Rate My Team projected points can help managers identify upcoming fixture swings and see when a player’s prospects are expected to improve or decline.

It can also help spot differentials with high projected points!

There’s much, much more here, too, including an ‘explosive v reliable’ plot chart!

IDENTIFY STRONG FIXTURE RUNS

The Fixture Runs tools can therefore help highlight potential buying and selling opportunities before they become obvious.

If a player’s rolling projected-points average is about to rise significantly, for example, managers can potentially move early rather than waiting for the good fixtures – and potentially the FPL returns – to arrive.

Equally, a downturn in projected points could help identify the right time to move an asset on.

For anyone who likes planning transfers several Gameweeks in advance, rather than simply targeting the next fixture, there is plenty to explore.

FIND GOOD ROTATION PAIRINGS

Looking for rotating pairs? We’ve got just the thing!

From £4.5m defenders to cheap midfielders, our tool will help you find a dream pairing:

You can increase the Gameweek range, too, depending on your lookahead:

TURN DEFCON DATA INTO BETTER FPL PICKS

The new Stats Centre also allows managers to dig into defensive contributions.

As well as each player’s overall DefCon numbers, the defending section breaks down the individual actions behind them, including recoveries, tackles won, interceptions, clearances and blocks.

But managers wanting to take their research even further can head to our dedicated DefCon Centre.

There, Tom Hadley’s DefCon boards focus on one particularly important area: consistency, rather than simply volume.

The Hit List shows the share of matches in which players have cleared the relevant threshold, with a minimum-start filter and the option to view the numbers on a per-90 basis.

That can help distinguish between someone who racks up defensive actions in occasional bursts and a player who regularly puts themselves in contention for DefCon points.

The Form Five, meanwhile, focuses on each player’s last five matches played – not simply the last five Gameweeks.

That distinction means an injured or rested player is judged on the matches they actually featured in, providing a clearer indication of recent DefCon consistency.

MORE THAN JUST THE STATS CENTRE

The Stats Centre forms part of a much wider collection of FPL tools available to our subscribers.

Alongside the Stats Centre and DefCon Centre, managers can access RMT Projected Points, Fixture Runs, Rotations, Team Profiles, the Fixture Ticker, Draft Tool and Rate My Team.

That means the research doesn’t necessarily have to stop after identifying an interesting player.

You can dig into their statistics, assess their upcoming schedule, compare their projected points with another asset and consider how they fit into your wider squad plans.

Whether you’re making one transfer or plotting a Wildcard several Gameweeks in advance, the idea is simple: put more of the information needed to make an informed FPL decision within easy reach.

    Are Sunderland and Palace going to improve their squad at any point?

    They look underprepared for Europe.

    Which 4.5 defender would you choose? Hume, Ajer, Kayode, Kadıoglu.

      I like Hume as he could be playing as a forward.

        Yes he’s currently my first choice out of the 4.5s. I also like Kadıoglu but I don’t want 3 Brighton.

      Hume as long as he still plays centre forward lol

    is tzolis nailed? Rumours of arsenal going in for another lw (yildiz rumoured)

    1. donbagino
      • 5 Years

      IMO safe for at least gw1 and gw2 as he looks to be in form

    2. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      33 mins ago

      Not nailed imo. Feel like he will start most games but will get subbed off fairly often around the 60min mark

    3. x.jim.x
      • 11 Years

      He extended his contract like 6 months ago, doubt they sign anyone unless Martinelli leaves

    4. Baps Hunter

      At 6.5 I will have him. Arsenal attack struggled last season, but I will certainly start with him. Konsa looks like a steal at 4.5. I will be starting with Calafiori and White, the upside is there.

  5. aapoman
    • 12 Years

    Anyone else feel like it is either Gabriel/Raya or no Arsenal defence at all? Don't like any of the 5.5m picks.

    Calafiori competing with Hincapie and Lewis-Skelley.
    Mosquera maybe ok short term but Arsenal will sign a new CB.
    White is so injury prone and Timber is back soon. If I remember correctly Mosquera also played some minutes at RB last season.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      Mosquera probably a no go now with konsa news below

      Cala ain’t competing with them, he’s another level, will nearly always start when fit or needed, will come off early though…

      1. FC Hakkebøf

        As Long as it is after 60 min it is okay.

        "Nearly always start" and "come off early" are excactly the things I don't want my picks to do. Need nailed on guys who always start when fit like Gabriel

    3. FPL Equilibrium

      Disagree completely I’m thinking of going into the game woth 3 Arsenal defenders. They are by far the best defence

      1. aapoman
        • 12 Years
        18 mins ago

        Missed my point but ok. If you go with 3 then surely at least one of those starts

    4. Aztec Kamara
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I agree with you. Everyone is jumping to exclude Gabriel over the price but he's the safe option for minutes and if he scores at anything like the same rate he's still good value at 8m.

  6. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    konsa to arsenal, better to get him in now?

    1. FC Hakkebøf

      He will be eased in. Dont reckon he will play the first 2 gameweeks (at least).

      If you want a GW1 red card like I got last season, he’s rash, don’t rate him that highly but for that price in that defence he’s in

    4. Johnjo
      • 8 Years
      27 mins ago

      Interesting. Would he be first choice ahead of Mosquera?
      And if you put him in your team now as a Villa player would he stay that way if he moves and still allow you 3 other Arsenal in your squad?

        You would be able to do that initially but you would be forced to transfer one out again with your first move.

          4x arsenal defs for the first 5 gws could be gold

            But you'd also be committing yourself to not use any transfers for those 5 weeks

        I think the double Arsenal defense (unless Gabriel) is now out the question. Has to be one of Raya, Gabriel or Calafiori

    Haaland, J. Pedro, DCL

    BB GW1 0,5 left, so where would you upgrade. Some ideas:
    a) Gross -->6,0 mid (Ndiaye? Lee Fee?)
    b) O'Shea -->4,5 mid (Ajer? Kadioglu?)
    c) N.Williams --->5,5 def (White?)

    I'm also considering: Gross + Schade --> Gomez + 7.0 mid (Szobo) , but I'd like to have a punt with Schade...

    I think I need to step away now.
    BB GW1 probably FH GW3. 15 starters means benching headaches but I shouldnt need to make a transfer until Haaland comes knocking GW5 or 7.

    Is it season over if I (c) Mbeumo?
    How does everyone feel about Palmer & Tarko?

    This Konsa deal could get done today and FPL Towers will still drag their feet to stop people quadrupling against Coventry, boring gits

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I transferred him already in 🙂 I don't think he will start anytime soon though. Having 4 Ars now isn't prolly a good idea, but I'll enjoy the idea for a moment just in case there is 1% chance for it to work.

  15. el polako

    If Konsa become a starter we all will be playing a 9 people game.

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 mins ago

      He will be 100% owned like J P basically. This means 1-1.5 million more for later BB, so probably change of plan with that chip for me. All casuals will not notice him playing for Arsenal in time, so I expect him to get early price rises when he starts. So just to save a transfer, he will certainly be in my gw1 squad, on the bench though.

      1. Johnjo
        • 8 Years
        just now

        What do you mean by 1-1.5 million more for later BB?
        Does Konsa move mean you will be delaying BB or playing it early?

  16. Fiasco da Gama
    • 1 Year

    Feel like this is the team I'll go with.
    BB1, TC2, FH3, WC4.
    Fairly all-in with the chips.

    Lammens
    Gabriel/Lacroix/Calafiori
    Bruno/Mbeumo/MGW/Tzolis
    Brobbey/C.Lewin/Pedro

    The Konsa deal is why I haven’t put White in my draft, as much as I wanted to, or Mosquera. Calafiori is for Coventry and then after that I’m not sure I’d like having him long-term

    1. Qaiss

        • 10 Years
        11 mins ago

        No but from GW2 or GW3 then you’re just worried about who’s playing, I don’t think we’re gonna spend £50m on a defender and bench him, can imagine he’ll play over Mosquera as soon as he’s available

          Even if that did happen, (unlikely), it's not happening until Timber is fully fit AND arsenal sign a new CB/RB. There are no other options at RB at the moment, particularly when you consider how stretched Arsenal are at CB as well.

    Those with double Cala + Mosquera/White combo - what are your plans after Konsa news:

    A) Get Konsa straight away to have 3 (or 4 ) Arsenal
