Scout Picks

Gameweek 23 Scout Picks – Liverpool triple-up for Palace visit

We have selected a Liverpool triple-up for our Scout Picks as Crystal Palace come to Anfield in Gameweek 23.

It took a lot of work to pull the best XI out of the squad submitted by Paul, Joe, Az and Peter earlier this week.

But it’s here for you to test against your own side now, coming in at £83m, £0.5m below our budget.

Goalkeeper

For once we are spending big in net as Manchester City man Ederson (£5.6m) gets the nod. He was the top pick of both Paul and Peter, while Az also asked for his inclusion in the squad. Only Cardiff have scored fewer goals than Huddersfield in the last four Gameweeks, who come into Gameweek 23 without a permanent manager. Furthermore, they have mustered just 11 shots on target since Gameweek 19, only three teams have managed fewer in that time frame. It should prove a quiet afternoon for Ederson.

Defenders

In the week that Andrew Robertson (£6.7m) went ahead of Marcos Alonso’s FPL price, it seems only fitting that he is the headline defender for the Scout Picks. All four of our pundits selected the Liverpool man as their best option in this position as Crystal Palace come to Anfield. The Reds have still only conceded three league goals there this season, while Palace rank 12th for shots on target in the last four Gameweeks. In every home match Robertson has played against non-top-six opposition this season, he has recorded either an attacking return, a clean sheet, bonus or a combination, averaging 8.5 points across those six Gameweeks.

Lucas Digne (£5.3m) is starting to cement his place in the group of defenders whose attacking threat make them unbenchable for their owners. Even though Everton’s clean sheet potential against Southampton is not too strong, we still believe the French left-back can involve himself in any goals they score in Hampshire. The Saints are the second-worst side in the last four home matches for shots conceded in the penalty box, while only one defender has registered more goal attempts than Digne since Gameweek 19.

Matt Doherty (£5.2m) has been in the unbenchable defenders club for some time, so it’s no surprise we’re bringing him back for Gameweek 22. He continues to surge forward and operate in opposition penalty boxes, only four defenders managing more touches there in their last four home matches, remembering that Doherty has faced Chelsea and Liverpool in that run. Leicester come to Molineux on Saturday lunch-time having allowed more shots in the box than all but three sides in the league in their last four away matches.

Midfielders

Given the form he is in, it would have been hard not to include Mohamed Salah (£13.4m) in the Scout Picks this week. The Egyptian earned the backing as the best option in midfield from all of our pundits apart from Az, who had him in second place. It’s five double-figure hauls for Salah in the last seven Gameweeks and while James Milner’s return could see him lose penalty kicks, he has still been earning them and is posting encouraging underlying statistics too ahead of Crystal Palace’s visit to Anfield.

We are sure that there will be goals for Manchester City at Huddersfield Town this week. The Terriers are bottom of the league for big chances conceded in their last four home matches and are still without a permanent manager following David Wagner’s departure earlier this week. Leroy Sané (£9.6m) is our chosen representative from City’s attack, as we still view him as the most likely to start. Sergio Aguero has serious competition from Gabriel Jesus currently, while Raheem Sterling could be rotated with Riyad Mahrez. Sané has three goals and an assist in his last four starts on the road.

Paul Pogba (£8.6m) is in the sort of unstoppable form that makes it very hard to overlook him for the Scout Picks XI. All four of our pundits wanted him in their squad, Paul his biggest fan by placing him in second place. Az selected him in the third slot, Joe and Peter in fourth. Those who have read our most recent Captain Sensible article will know what sort of form the Frenchman is in, arguably the most in-form option in the Premier League right now according to the statistics. While Brighton’s recent defensive performances might put some people of captaining Pogba, we believe Manchester United will have what it takes to find the back of the net and their number six is sure to be involved.

In the last four Gameweeks, no player has created more chances than Ryan Fraser (£6.1m), which is why he gets back into the Scout Picks once again. Az was the only one to name-check the Bournemouth winger for his squad, but given the Cherries will be hosting West Ham, we feel Fraser is worthy of inclusion. The Hammers may have defended admirably against Arsenal in Gameweek 22, but they rank fifth-worst for big chances conceded in the last four away matches. It presents a decent opportunity for Fraser to add to his 14 attacking returns this season.

Forwards

Roberto Firmino (£9.3m) completes our Liverpool triple-up this week and looks a decent replacement for anyone needing to offload the recently injured Harry Kane. The Brazilian has done particularly well at Anfield this year, second for goal attempts among all players over their last four home matches. Furthermore, since Gameweek 19 Firmino has registered more shots on target than his esteemed colleague Salah.

Marcus Rashford (£7.5m) was the only other player to receive a unanimous top vote in the Scout Squad. All four of our pundits picked him out as the best forward option for Gameweek 23 on the back of his five goals and four assists since Gameweek 16. In the last four Gameweeks, the only Premier League player to record more accurate efforts on goal than Rashford is team-mate Pogba, indicating just how threatening he is right now.

Salomón Rondón (£5.7m) completes our line-up as Newcastle have an opportunity for a first home win since Gameweek 12. Rafael Benitez’s men host a Cardiff City side on Saturday expected to be without key defender Sean Morrison, who underwent a procedure earlier this week. Even with the centre-back in the side, the Bluebirds are still bottom of the league for goal attempts conceded in the box over the last four away matches. Rondón seems the most likely to capitalise having produced attacking returns in four of his last five matches against sides outside the top-six.

Substitutes

Luke Shaw (£5.0m) came close to inclusion in the final Scout Picks XI ahead of Brighton’s visit to Old Trafford. The Seagulls have blanked in two of their last three away trips giving some hope of a first home clean sheet for Manchester United since Gameweek 13.

Ademola Lookman (£5.1m) got his second start of the season against Bournemouth and impressed enough to suggest he is in with a shot of keeping his place at Southampton. Having already clocked up 398 minutes this season, he has actually averaged a key pass every 40 minutes, the same as colleague Gylfi Sigurdsson and could prove the next budget midfielder worth considering if he can keep his place.

Troy Deeney (£5.9m) rounds off our bench ahead of Burnley’s trip to Vicarage Road. The Watford man had the backing of three of our pundits after recording the same number of shots in the penalty box as Salah since Gameweek 19.

Community Champion

Representing the community against the Scout Picks in Gameweek 23 is Athletico Timbo. They have opted for a 3-4-3 formation of: Alisson; Lindelöf, Robertson, Bednarek; Pogba, Sterling, Salah, Pedro; Aguero, Deeney, Ings.

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.

Last weekend, FPL_SUNNY narrowly beat our Scout Picks 53-52, but fclackless‘s winning margin of 33 points (77-44) in Gameweek 10 is the current target to beat.

    play TAA instead of one of these? Pereira I guess...might just bench Trent and not risk a cameo

    Doherty (LEI)
    Holebas (BUR)
    Digne (sou)
    Pereira (wol)

    1. enrico.palazzo
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      You think he’s a chance for a cameo? I’m thinking the same too for me

      1. enrico.palazzo
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Probably pereira though

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

          there is a chance, probably not a huge one - but if Milner starts and gets injured he could easily come on - not likely but certainly possible

    2. lankdog
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      I'd lean towards benching Pereira but probably risky

    3. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      judging by Klopp´s comments he will not start and Klopp won´t risk him. Camacho most likley cover on bench, as they have Fabinho and Milner who can deputise as cb and right back if necessary, very rarely Klopp plays players that have had injuries leading up to the game. I would play and hope, chances of cameo is next to nothing

  2. boroie
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 2 months ago

    Desperate for some advice on my wildcard...

    Patricio (Guaita)
    TAA Shaw Digne (Kola, AWB)
    Salah Pogba Sane Lookman/Brooks (McNeil)
    Auba Firmino Rashford

    Any thoughts?

    Also...
    A - Lookman
    B - Brooks
    C - Other 5.2 or under midfielder

      2. boroie
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Apparently could play tomorrow... Kola to come in if he doesn’t make it but TAA worth having long term I think. Best at that price range I think.

    Bench 1...

    A) Doherty (LEI) *own Patricio
    B) Digne (sou)
    C) Holebas (BUR)

    Can’t play all 3 given my set up. First thought is Holebas on the bench is the most risk averse thing to do.

    3. Jon Snow
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 2 months ago

      Is it madness to be considering Pogba (C) over Salah? Brighton aren't the best away from home and Pogba is surely guaranteed a hattrick after having a baby?

      1. That Was Easy!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Not madness, but unpopular around here and most
        Places

      2. Subzero (-4)
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Not at all. He loves primed for a haul stats etc and with Brighton more than likely sitting deep he will be shooting a lot from edge of box etc... for me it's risk management. Salah is close to 50% ownership and will be captained by almost everyone so although pogba is a very decent option for me the damage of getting it wrong could be terrible for rank this week. If your chasing in mini league or looking to try and make big jumps up the rankings then go pogba

      3. Victor6359

        Have it on him at the moment

    4. Wolfman180

        Not for me. At all. Wilson, Rich and Fanderson could do the business this week.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years

      SCOUT PICKS CHALLENGE - GAMEWEEK 23

      Mince n Tatties saved me missing this gameweek....! Cheers for the reminder!
      GW22 results soon tomorrow.

      ****** 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 19th 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 *****

      The challengers have risen, and the King has fallen! Your top three at present, after Minges drops top spot:

      1st - Lord (15pts)

      probably old news, but looks like no Kamara in the squad again on Sunday

      1. Down with this sort of thin…
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Think he's heading to Turkey on loan.
        Boris Johnson denies this of course.

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

          the penalty thing wasn't ideal, but I feel bad for him

          1. Down with this sort of thin…
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            Apparently he also had a fight during training about a week after the penalty incident.

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

              yeah I know, that was because Mitro thought he had 'disrespected the teacher' apparently, not gonna rule out that Mitro was just being a dick

            My mate is a big Fulham fan, says that Kamara always had a big ego and not a good club player.

            He picked number 47 so he could be AK47 haha...

      Where would you invest 6mln which I will have when I replace Kane with Rashford? I was planing whole week the TAA & Kane to Robbo & Rash move but after that news about the state of Trent i am not sure What to do do you have Any ideas?

          Crazy

        2. Down with this sort of thin…
          • 6 Years

          Jesus, Aguero and Rashford. I dare you.

        3. enrico.palazzo
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          This week it could be the latter

      3. CAPTAIN_WALES
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Should I do:

        A) Arnie & Rich to Firmino & Sane (-4)
        B) Arnie to Kun

        FYI I have no sterling, and I am fairly confident that the guy in my head to head league did Kane to Kun.

        Cheers guys!

        1. Victor6359
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          B for me

        2. Down with this sort of thin…
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Wouldn't touch Firmino personally, just not confident in his returns for his price. Would be nice if you can get Aguero and Sane.
          Sane would be my priority to get in of those three. Best form/value and think Pep has him back to his best.

        Power midfield of Pogba, Hazard, Salah and Sterling. Lovely!

            Tasty mate!! I did the exact same transfers this week has the unusual luxury of two free transfers too

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

              Had to be done.

              I like Alli but without Kane I think it’s madness going without a City attacker now.

              Rashford is a great enabler, and Sterling will easily outscore Richarlison.

              1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 6 Years

                Certainly hope so mate!!!! Good
                Luck to us both a Sterling 21 pointer this weekend will do very nicely indeed !!!

        Good to go?

        Already on -4. Nothing worth -8 is there (even though I want Robbo instead of Alonso)?

        Ederson
        Alonso / Bennett / Digne (AWB / TAA*)
        Salah / Pogba / Anderson / Richarlison (Hojbjerg)
        Auba / Rashford / Jimenez

        Thanks!

        1. Dbz91
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          I'd start TAA over than Bennett. Worst case he gets brought in automatically if TAA doesnt play

          1. PascalCygan

        Need to settle this dilemma

        0FT

        Allison
        TAA, Kola, Luiz
        Salah (C), Anderson, Rich, Pogba
        Auba, Jimenez, Rashford

        Fab, Balbuena, Kante, Wan

        Worth a -4 to change a defender?

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          Nah, hold until next week.

      7. Baked baines
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Sane is going up tonight and Rich down.

        Alonso & Rich for Sane and 4.3 -4

        Yes or no?!

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

          Imminent return of Mendy is a concern for Sané though.

          Who would be your £4.3 defender?

          A

        4. Down with this sort of thin…
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Jiminez, think he's due. Although, could say same with Rich.
          TAA likely benched as Palace at home is wee buns.

      9. Victor6359
        • 6 Years

        How does the captains poll usually fair up?

      10. boroie

        Please help...

        Patricio (Guaita)
        TAA Shaw Digne (Kola, AWB)
        Salah Pogba Sane Lookman/Brooks (McNeil)
        Auba Firmino Rashford

        Any thoughts?

        Also...
        A - Lookman
        B - Brooks
        C - Other 5.2 or under midfielder

        1. Dbz91
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Kante looking more attacking than ever for 5.0

          1. Down with this sort of thin…
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            Next week, I'm going Torreira. Nice drop to 4.9 during the week.
            Not for Chelsea match though.

      11. Park the bus
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Start Luiz or Bennett?

        1. Now I'm Panicking
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Very close - had the same choice and I went Bennett.

          1. Down with this sort of thin…
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 2 months ago

            have both, starting both! But i'd personally choose Luiz. If clean sheet, he hoovers up bonus points. Also goal threat for corners/fks. Takes the odd direct free kick at goal too.

      12. ScottyMaz12
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        Worth taking a -4 to replace Guaita or Speroni? If yes, best option to bring in?

        a) Alisson (got TAA)
        b) DDG
        c) Lloris
        d) Other

        1. Only a Hazard of time
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Play Speroni and hope for a light drubbing. Then move on to Alisson next week.

        C) Digne

        1. Down with this sort of thin…

          A

      14. Tabbara

        Who to bench:
        A: Digne

        C:Doherty
        D: TAA

        2. Art Vandelay

          Doherty.

      15. JustPark
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 2 months ago

        How's the team, lads? Plan was to take a hit to get Shaw and Alli/Eriksen for TAA and Martial but after that TAA injury update, think I'll hold.

        Fabs
        Robbo, TAA, Bennett,
        Salah, Hazard, Pogba, Martial,
        Rashford, Jimmy
        (Button, Barnes, DLuiz, AWB)
        1FT, 1.9ITB

        1) save ft.
        2) Martial to Alli for free.

        1. Schliegs
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Save

        2. Only a Hazard of time
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 2 months ago

          Is Martial to Sane out of your range? Otherwise I'd hold.

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

        Need some help lads. Late to the party - still got Kane. Which transfers to do?

        Already got Pogba and martial

        A) Kane & Kamara out for rashford & firmino (keep/play martial and Richarlison) -8pts
        B) Kane & martial/Richarlison for rashford, Sterling (keep/play Jimenez) -8pts
        C) Kane for rashford -4pts

            Not sure if I've answered this already, gettin de ja vu. But C, other moves aren't worth the hit. Although Kamara will eventually be a problem.
