Scout Picks

Gameweek 22 Scout Picks – Salah, Hazard, Aubameyang the premium options

With the return of Fantasy Premier League this weekend it’s time for the Scout Picks to make a comeback.

For the first time in 2019, we’ve been aided by our Scout Squad crew of Paul, Joe, Az and Peter with their submissions of potential players earlier this week.

Now that price rises have taken hold of most of the usual suspects, we have increased the budget to £83.5m, which we have hit bang-on this week.

Goalkeeper

Vicente Guaita (£4.2m) continues to offer an excellent price in Crystal Palace’s goal which is why he has been chosen for the Scout Picks once again. The Spaniard received the backing of two of our pundits, Paul and Joe, ahead of Watford’s visit to Selhurst Park. The Eagles have conceded just nine goals at home this season, only Liverpool and Chelsea have been breached fewer times in front of their own fans. Furthermore, Guaita has earned an additional point for saves in three of his last four outings.

Defenders

David Luiz (£5.9m) goes into the Scout Picks as the most expensive defender to act as cover for the slightly more popular Marcos Alonso. The latter was chosen by Joe and Peter, but we’ve gone with Az’s choice of the Brazilian centre-back to save some money. The Chelsea defence looks in good shape to keep a clean sheet this week, with Newcastle the lowest scorers in the Premier League since the beginning of December. Meanwhile, the Magpies are especially susceptible to set pieces, and Luiz has more attempts from dead-ball situations than any other Chelsea player.

After being the talk of the town for much of the gap between Gameweeks 21 and 22, Ricardo Pereira (£5.3m) makes it into the Scout Picks. The Leicester man looks likely to start on the flanks of attacking midfield again when Southampton come to the King Power Stadium, which should give him the potential for another double-figure haul. Only one FPL defender has had more goal attempts than Pereira in the last four Gameweeks, while the Saints rank bottom of the league for shots in the box during that time.

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.2m) is our representative from the Liverpool defence in Gameweek 22, as the cheapest option likely to start against Brighton. There was support for the Reds’ back-line from our Scout Squad with Paul, Az and Peter asking for some coverage. Despite losing their last two matches (in all competitions), Liverpool still have the best defence in the Premier League, which means they stand a good chance of keeping a clean sheet when facing a Brighton side that has slipped into the bottom five for big chances in the last four Gameweeks.

Midfielders

Mohamed Salah (£13.3m) is a highly sought-after Fantasy asset right now, with three double-figure hauls in his last four matches. Only four players have registered more shots on target than him since Gameweek 18, while he has been creating a chance every 45 minutes for his team-mates, and that’s in a run which included Arsenal and Manchester City. Salah does come to an Amex Stadium defended by a Brighton side with an in-form back-line, which may put some off giving him the captain’s armband. However, we are backing the Egyptian to prove he is powerful enough to break down lesser opposition, even if they prove a stern test.

Eden Hazard (£11.1m) has frustrated his owners in the last two league outings, blanking against both Crystal Palace and Southampton in that time. We believe it will be different in Gameweek 22 when Newcastle come to Stamford Bridge. Only two players have touched the ball in opposition penalty boxes more often than Hazard in the last four Gameweeks and he has taken more shots there than Salah, playing more key passes than the Egyptian in that time too. Meanwhile, Newcastle are currently in the bottom six for shots conceded in the box across the last four away matches.

Leroy Sané (£9.5m) gets into the Scout Picks after Joe and Az selected him for their squads. The midfielder also acts as our Manchester City representative after heavy support for Sergio Aguero, who didn’t make it due to budget constraints. The German offers a nice balance of both creativity and goal threat for a cheaper price, while Aguero and Sterling seem only to promise one or the other on current form. While Wolves are typically harder to break down away from home, they are still averaging at least one goal conceded per road trip this season and have just two clean sheets from a possible 10 outside of Molineux. Furthermore, Matt Doherty’s forward runs down his side of the pitch may open things up for Sané.

We are backing Richarlison (£6.9m) to get his first attacking returns since Gameweek 19 on Sunday afternoon as Bournemouth come to Goodison Park. Just Fulham has conceded more in away matches than the Cherries in 2018/19, with only the Cottagers allowing more big chances than them on the road in the last four Gameweeks. Factor in injury problems all over the pitch for Eddie Howe’s men and it looks like Everton could record a routine victory with Richarlison at the heart of it.

Callum Paterson (£5.1m) gets back into the Scout Picks after earning himself the backing of Joe and Peter ahead of Gameweek 22. Cardiff are hosting a Huddersfield side who rank worst in the league for big chances conceded since Gameweek 18 and they are proving especially vulnerable through the middle. Paterson may have played out wide against Spurs but we’d expect him to return to his centre-forward spot in time to punish the Terriers in south Wales.

Forwards

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.4m) comes into the Scout Picks after all four of our pundits put him in their Scout Squad entries. No player has recorded a higher expected goals score over the last four Gameweeks as the Arsenal forward, who has been firing off shots in the box at a quicker rate than both Salah and Hazard. Meanwhile, West Ham still have just one clean sheet at home this season and have slipped towards the wrong end of the table for attempts conceded in the box since Gameweek 18, only four teams allowing more in that time.

If we are selecting Aubameyang this week, then Ashley Barnes (£5.6m) simply had to join him. The Burnley forward has registered the same number of big chances as his Arsenal counterpart in the last four Gameweeks, while only two players have had more accurate efforts than him in that time. Barnes has the fortune of going up against Fulham and their obliging defence in Gameweek 22. As we’ve already mentioned, the Cottagers have allowed more big chances than any other side across their last four away matches.

Substitutes

Sean Morrison (£4.7m) gets a place on the bench ahead of Huddersfield’s trip to the Cardiff City Stadium. The centre-back is one of Paul’s tips, who currently ranks third out of defenders for shots in the box this season (19). Only Fulham and Cardiff themselves have scored fewer times in away matches in 2018/19, so there’s the possibility of a clean sheet too.

David Brooks (£5.1m) could end up as the main man for Bournemouth this weekend if Ryan Fraser, Callum Wilson and Josh King miss the game through the injuries. Everton are without a clean sheet since Gameweek 13, while Brooks has three attacking returns in his last four outings.

Marcus Rashford (£7.3m) is a man in form with eight attacking returns in his last six matches and could continue that run when Manchester United travel to face Spurs at Wembley in Gameweek 22. Due to the quality of the opposition and his price, we couldn’t put Rashford in the Scout Picks XI but found a place for him on our bench.

Community Champion

Representing the community against the Scout Picks in Gameweek 22 is FPL_SUNNY. He has opted for a 3-4-3 formation of: Guaita; Luiz, Pereira, Alexander-Arnold; Richarlison, Salah, Sané, Son; Barnes, Aubameyang, Rashford.

The community member who beats our picks by the biggest margin over the campaign will win a £100 Amazon Voucher and a place in our Contributors and Moderators League for the following season.

fclackless‘s winning margin of 33 points (77-44) in Gameweek 10 is the current target to beat.

    A) get Salah for FREE next week (2FT)

    B) Alonso + Anderson -> TAA + Salah (-4)

    C) Jimenez + Anderson -> ? + Salah (-4)

    Help appreciated!

    1. thomashl

      Currently on waiting for next - selling Alonso for NEW at home is madness. Don’t know who else to sell

    2. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I’ll be tempted with B and captain Salah

      1. thomashl

        • 7 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers. It’s what I WANT to do, I’ll agree there - he’s killing me every week and they might obliterate Brighton.

        Actually he’s a differential in my ML too!

        1. AndyCook
            5 years, 2 months ago

            They are very unlikely to smash Brighton

              Well. Salah is something of an MVP against non-top-6-sides, so he can grab the goal if it’s only 0-1.

              And, they’re the best team in the league, they can theoretically smash anyone

      2. Bring the Cavalry

      Evening folks, hoping for some opinion here.

      What would you change, if any, with 2.1M ITB for a transfer? 5K OR.

      Fabianski
      Digne Robertson Holebas AWB
      Salah (C) Pogba Martial Son
      Kane Barnes
      Sub: Hennessy Jimenez Snodgrass Doherty

      A. GTG
      B. Snodgrass to Bilva/Sigurdsson and bench Holebas
      C. Son to Sane
      D. Holebas to TAA
      E. Others

      1. BooYaKasha

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

        Your rank makes no difference does it?
        B is the best move to Sigurdsson this week imo but it depends on your Son plan the week after.

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Rank may not be relevant just whether to be defensive bringing in highly 10K owned player or aggressive with differential. Cheers anyway.

          1. Snevitz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            i think you should go for whichever option you think will score the most points and not worry about other people's teams

        2. Captain Beefheart
          • 10 Years

          Nice just to say "am top 5K tho"

      2FTs, 0itb. Thoughts for this week?

      A) Fabianski & Lovren > Lloris & Cedric (or other 4.2)

      B) Fabianski & Lovren > Ederson/Kepa & Valery/Bednarek/peltier

      C) Lovren > Lindelof/Tarkowski/Kolasinac/Shaw/Morrisons

      D) Fabianski > Etherdge (other keeper is Button)

      1. BOATIES FC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years

        Fab and Lovren to guatua and TAA?

        1. Mr_Barbs
          • 6 Years

          Sorry, already have TAA

      2. Drogba Legend
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        I like C, but monitor Mendy's situation. A is out of form and Spurs attack may alter/flounder a bit once Son leaves.

      G2G to save FT for GW or Martial/Fab/Obiang moves?:

      Fabs
      Alonso - Trippier - TAA - AWB - Digne
      Salah - Hazard (C) - Martial - Deu
      Kane

      Rui - Ings - Jimenez - Obiang

      Cheers

    11. Hobolicious
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I feel a bit stuck in my own mindset. Could someone give some refreshing takes on my team and which move(s) they would make this GW?

      I am actually considering something as "boring" as getting Puncheon in for Højbjerg to get ready for 2-3 moves in the coming GW. I feel that most of the other moves I would make this GW would be quite a "knee-jerk".

      Current team looks like this:

      Fabianski - Button
      Alonso - Robertson - Digne - Doherty - Kolasinac
      Hazard - Sané - Pogba - Richarlison - Højbjerg
      Kane - Rashford - Jiménez

      FT: 2

      1. Snevitz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Take a look at the article earlier today about cheap mids, consider Camarasa or McNeil,

        1. Hobolicious
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          But would I ever play them over an attacking defender? I don't think so. I would rather save my money so I can be able to for example do Alonso/Sané/Jiménez to TAA/Salah/Kamara next week, and the "only" way of doing that is getting in Puncheon/Hudson-Odoi for Højbjerg.

          1. Snevitz
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            Fair enough if you want to save money and you are unlikely to need your third sub, I just prefer having playing subs.

            1. Hobolicious
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 2 months ago

              Puncheon will play 90 mins week in and week out at Huddersfield. I can't see him going from one bench to another.

          2. AndyCook
              5 years, 2 months ago

              This will leave you playing four at the back and looks a downgrade to me

              1. Hobolicious
                • 8 Years
                5 years, 2 months ago

                And that is the idea. As the theory has been for a few seasons now the attacking defenders are just extreme value compared to most budget attackers, and it is more of them to choose from, so easier to swap between them (than it is with attackers).

                How is it a downgrade if I might ask?

            • Runaway
              • 12 Years
              5 years, 2 months ago

              With the defenders you have, your 8th attacker will always be the 3rd in the bench and never will be subbed-in (maybe once until the end of season) so I agree with going as cheap as possible (Puncheon) or downgrade one of the defenders to upgrade elsewhere next week (Salah maybe?)

        2. HammersFan
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Fab > Ethridge

          He reminds me so much of pickford at Southampton, made so many saves.

          Looks good.

          I would consider downgrading Jiminez for £4.5m and use funds to upgrade defence or Camarasa. Jiminez fixtures are really good from GW24 so I would bring him in then

      3. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        A) Sane & Kane
        B) Haz & Aguero

        1. SADIO SANÉ
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          C) Haz & Kane, with Bednarek instead of Pereira

              Probably best to plan your captaincy for the next 6 weeks and see which option rotates the best,

                Could just be Salah every week tbh

        Which 1 to bench?
        A) Richarlison (Bour H)
        B) Son (Man Utd H)
        C) Anderson (Ars H)
        D) Jiminez (Man City A)

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Jimenez

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

          Has to be D

          1. pug_chops
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            He seems the obvious choice but lack of Man City clean sheets is worrying me

            1. Snevitz
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              5 years, 2 months ago

              All you can do is make the best decision with the facts that you have.
              Who would you feel least bad about seeing on your bench with points?
              Plus you can blame us now 🙂

                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                5 years, 2 months ago

                Thanks all. 100% agreement. I've had more points on my bench over Christmas than ever before so probably overthinking it. Thanks for the offer of taking the blame. I may just hold you to that

                1. Snevitz
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 14 Years
                  5 years, 2 months ago

                  he's first on my bench as well

        If you are tripleing up on Liverpool, who is the best option to go with Salah and Robertson:

        A defender, Mane or Firmino?

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          I'd go taa

        2. Runaway
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          TAA

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

          5 years, 2 months ago

          AWB 1st in the bench. If I had Auba, I would definitely captain him though.

            Stupid point. Look at their general goals conceded under the current coach. Chelsea are not scoring many against anyone.

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

        SCOUT PICKS CHALLENGE - GAMEWEEK 22

        Not gonna miss another one!!

        ****** WHAT IS IT? ******

        For those of you who haven't been around or aren't aware, every evening prior to the start of the gameweek FFS releases their picks of players for the gameweek, "Scout Picks", as well as 3 differentials before the first games to separate yourself from the crowd.

        This is your way to have a bit of fun and challenge those scout picks with a set of your own (read instructions below). This will always open the day before the gameweek starts around 8pm, and whilst you don't have to play weekly, the more you play the better chance you have of winning!

        Gameweek winners will also be awarded a spot in the Community Roundup article.

        ****** INSTRUCTIONS ******

        Everyone can have their own scout picks (there is no limit on team value) but with one simple rule,

        YOU CAN ONLY PICK ONE PLAYER FROM EACH TEAM
        (yes, two of your players at least will be on opposing teams).

        You can only have ONE submission, and your FIRST submission will be what is accepted. You also must respond DIRECTLY to this post (not to a reply on this post). FFS Scout Picks are automatically enrolled. Teams must comply with FPL formation rules and be submitted in an easy to read format, e.g.

        GK
        DEF DEF DEF
        MID MID MID MID
        FOR FOR FOR

        Deadline for this gameweek is Saturday 12th January, 11.30am.

        ****** SCORING ******

        Regardless of number of applicants, scoring will be done by the following:

        1st place: 3 points
        Top 4% of the population will rank "second" and score 2 points.
        Top 10% of the population will rank "third" and score 1 point.

        There is also a bonus point which everyone is eligible for. If you score higher than FFS' Scout Picks AND Differential Picks (i.e. 14 players), you will be awarded with a bonus point regardless of whether you were in the top 10% scoring positions or not.

        Welcome to the game, and good luck.

        ***** THE STANDINGS *****

          @OCPRODIGY - Come on Son, let's be having you - don't be missing another Scout Picks Challenge 😉

      13. The Wizard of Ozil
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        I don't know about you guys but this has to be one of the toughest week for decisions so far this season.

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          I'm struggling

        2. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          I'm quite relaxed really

        3. FPL Maldini
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          What with?

      14. Goonermeister
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Play one

        A) Jimenez (mci)
        B) Holebas (cry)
        C) Kamara (but)
        D) Doherty (mci)

        1. Maneonthemap
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Either A or B, would probably go B myself but Jimenez wouldn’t be a bad choice

        2. Make United Great Again
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          C

      15. Viper
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        I have 2Fts with nothing to do, is Hamer - > Guaita worth the extra 0.2m? I'd start ahead of Fabianski this week.

        1. Runaway
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Sounds good

        2. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          I don't understand the point of only 1 playing GK especially when you can get a steal for 4.2m Do it!
