Scout Notes on today’s FA Cup action will be heading your way tomorrow, for now, we thought we’d bring you word that, as we did in January last season, we’ll be introducing a half-season membership. The price of membership to Fantasy Football Scout will drop from £15 to £10 for the remainder of the season on Monday.

This half season offer will give access to the Members Area, Members Ticker and Members articles, right up until June 1 and arrives in time for those still pondering their January wildcard selections.

We’re currently working on updated Player Projections that will offer our view on the players for the remaining 18 gameweeks. We’re also producing some FAQ based tutorials that will help new and existing members get the most from the Members area and tools. We expect both to be published early next week to coincide with the half-season offer. Click here for details on the benefits available to Members.

Coverage on the Scout gets back to normal next week after the busy holiday programme, with our usual regulars making reappearance. We’re also unveiling a new guest writer who will be contributing members and non-members articles for the remainder of the season. With at least two new writers to be announced from the recent “Scouting for Writers” article, the next few weeks should see plenty of progress. More on that next week.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

          I just don't like Walters. He burnt me too many times last season, had him at the start of this when he did nothing, so I took him out, my main rival brought him and he started to fire.

    Good evening fine gentlemen,

    Is P Jones price likely to drop before the next deadline do you think? I am wildcarding and thinking of holding off bringing him in the team as it seems like he might lose value at the moment (about 8k in so far I think and 20k+ out)

    Thinking of bringing in R Taylor instead for now as he seems most likely to get a rise based on current players that I could bring in.

    I'm not so bothered about making cash I just don't want to lose $$$ on Jones when I could get him in cheaper a few days later maybe...

      Sounds like you're smartly thinking about the WC and values ... I'd agree with you; continue keeping an eye on the transfer activity of your targets. Infinite trades during the WC means you can move whenever you want, however many times you want.

      Much like the stock exchange - short term is impossible to predict, long term is easy. A crap team could smash you on any given week, but a good player has a terrific chance of beating that team over the season.

      Your score from week to week is quite a lot like flipping a coin eleven times and seeing how many times it comes up head (being goals, CSs). Intelligent choices will stack the odds slightly in your favour and you might have a 54% of getting heads, for example. There is always a chance someone will come and smash two of your three everton coins with a hammer on a DGW though

    Could do with some advice peeps. I've already used my FT to take out Drenthe for Sessegnon, but my defence is looking pretty suspect for the next GW.

    Should I swop Jagielka for Kompany now, before he goes up tonight, for a -4, giving me a back three of Kompany, Jones, Enrique (Brown, Naylor)? Or leave it with Enrique, Jones, Brown with Naylor, Jagielka on the bench if Brown doesnt play.

    I dont normally do hits for a defender but I'm planning on playing my WC in a couple of weeks and will bring Kompany in then anyway.

    Any opinions guys?

          Look, my lovely. We can't afford to be shunting defenders all over the place. You have four choices:

          Pay zillions for a Citeh defender.
          Ditto a MUN defender, or Evans.
          Buy Lindegaard on a whim, as I will.

          OR:

            Shunting defenders isnt my normal practice MMW, hence the need for advice.

            My original plan is to swop Jones to Kompany/Richards (yes a city defender) and keep Enrique and have 3 rotating cheapies when I use my WC. At the moment these are Naylor, Senderos, McAuley/Shotton.

            I was just concerned with Kompany's rise and the tight budget I'm working to as to whether it might be better to do it now or wait. 🙂

      Hi 7th H. Not bad imo. Personally dont like Ruddy and he doesnt rotate that well with Vorm, but t 4.2 he's probably all you can afford.

      Gerrard could be a good differential as Pool are going to need him with Suarez out. Same front 3 as I'm going for, decent defence, so ok in my book.

          it's very difficult during an FA cup break to know exactly what each player is going to do in their next few league games. You have all the information you need - the players available to select and google (unless you're a paying member) to delve into player's stats.

          I've looked at your team and to be honest, I probably wouldn't have used the wildcard yet! The first set of league games after a break is almost pot luck ...

    Valencia / Bale / VDV / Sess(!) / Silva
    RVP / Adebayor / Yakubu

    What do you think, honestly?

    I am really happy with it, however...... I have ONE LINGERING DOUBT

    I'm thinking maybe it would be better to not have such a good bench and push some of that money into people like Aguero, after all you win it with the XI that actually play rather than having a pretty bench (eg Sess/Mignolet). I'm also thinking of trading out P Jones for a cheaper Man U defender when fit

    Best Combo?

    b) Sturridge + A.Cole
    c) Sturridge + Evra

    Evans started 6 of the 8 utd clean sheets this season, despite only playing 12 of the 20 games. Maybe more crucial to the UTD defence than you'd think watching him play.
