Tips

The Complete Guide to Scout’s tips and advice for FPL Gameweek 8

With the next international break breathing down our necks, be sure to savour the thrills, heartache, jam, and (fingers crossed) joy that Gameweek 8 will undoubtedly provide.

As ever, Fantasy Football Scout is here to help you separate fact from rumour, stat from gobbledegook, and Pep from his roulette wheel. Well, ok separating Pep from his roulette wheel is probably surgically impossible, but two out of three ain’t bad. And, just for the heck of it, we’ll even explain what a “compound differential” is. Oh yes.

Talking points

The main headline this week has undoubtedly been the injury to Kevin De Bruyne. Guardiola confirmed on Friday that the brilliant Belgian will miss Gameweek 8

No, tomorrow [De Bruyne] is not fit. After the international break, he will be ready. It’s not a big, big problem.

Over half a million managers have wasted no time in ditching De Bruyne with Mount, Yarmolenko, and Mahrez (more on him later), the popular replacements. 

For other more patient souls – willing to trust Pep when he says the midfield maestro will return for Gameweek 9 – this will mean a substitute taking his place in their fantasy teams. 

If you’ve got options like John Lundstram (£4.5m) or Todd Cantwell (£5.0m) on your bench, hold on to Kevin.

The FPL General

However, as Neale reported in his team news round-up, some may have reason to worry. Speaking on Friday, Norwich City boss Daniel Farke reported a problem with 27%-owned Todd Cantwell:

There is a little doubt, a little question mark behind Todd Cantwell. He’s got some hamstring problems. He was out Wednesday and Thursday, returned back today on the training pitch, it looked alright. We have to wait a bit, how his body reacts. I hope to have him available for tomorrow.

For the low-down on all the treatment room latest, we not only have Neale’s quote-filled articles, but Rotation’s Alter Ego has kindly summarised the key points for each team. Could Allison be about to make his return this weekend?

Who to trust with the armband?

Raheem Sterling leads the captain poll with 25.8% of the vote, ahead of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mohamed Salah, and Sergio Aguero. Without an overwhelming favourite to stick the armband on, FPL managers face another tricky decision. 

The underlying statistics once again point to the potential of Manchester City assets ahead of their home encounter with Wolverhampton Wanderers, as David highlighted on the Captaincy Video

Only three teams have conceded more shots in the box [than Wolves], and no team has had more shots in the box than Manchester City.

Digging a little deeper – using data available to FFS Members – TheFantasyFreÆK focused on Wolves’ defensive problems this campaign:

… the stark contrast I notice in Wolves 19/20 v Wolves 18/19 from a defensive point of view is very worrying. Wolves have conceded triple the number of big chances this season than they did at this stage last season (12 v 4), hence their xGC (expected goals conceded) has nearly doubled (5.5 to 10). Shots in the box conceded have also witnessed an alarming rise of 46%.

The problem is knowing which City player to trust. 

In Gameweek 7, many FPL pundits and experts felt Aguero would definitely start following his midweek rest. They were wrong. This week it’s Raheem Sterling’s turn to be the favoured captain pick.

Sterling has scored in his last three matches in all competitions and emerged from the bench in the Champions League on Tuesday night to inspire City to victory. The 24-year-old will lead the FPL General’s troops on Sunday. 

However, one manager who won’t be giving Sterling the armband is Career Hall of Fame number one Sean Tobin. Sean, as Greyhead informed us in the latest installment of The Great and The Good, omitted Sterling from his Gameweek 7 Wildcard. Instead he’s chosen to go with Aguero and Salah as his only players costing over £11.0m.

Backing up Sean’s decision to favour Aguero, David observed in his Captain Sensible article:

Once again, we come into a Gameweek with Aguero as the busiest attacking player in the penalty box over the previous four matches. He has shot 17 times there from Gameweek 4 onwards, more than any other player in their last four outings.

While The FPL General feels that we shouldn’t be put off by Salah’s upcoming fixtures:

On paper, Liverpool have a tricky run of games but is it really that difficult? It’s Leicester at home this weekend (Salah’s lowest score at Anfield this season is nine points), then a trip to face mid-table side Manchester United before a home tie against a Spurs outfit who conceded seven goals to Bayern Munich this week.

Second in the captain poll, Aubameyang is attracting interest and it’s easy to understand why. Brandon pointed out in FPL Question Time:

With no blanks through the first seven weeks of the season, Aubameyang is indeed the real deal.

Discussing the Gabonese international in the Captaincy Video, Joe enthused:

It’s a six-point floor!… At the Emirates Bournemouth have conceded eleven goals and scored just three over their last three league visits, and Aubameyang has scored in his last two encounters against the Cherries.

High-end Purchases on a Limited Budget

The challenge facing many FPL managers is deciding which of the £11.0m+ players to own, with many offering the promise of points. Three premium-priced assets make this week’s Scout Picks: Salah, Sterling, and Aubameyang.

To help ease the pressure on our limited budgets players such as McGinn, Pukki, and Abraham – as well as a shift towards cheap defenders – are proving popular. All three offer the promise of goals this weekend.

In his analysis of the underlying stats, Neale revealed that Abraham had been presented with nine big chances in the last four Gameweeks:

Abraham had four of those gilt-edged opportunities in the last two Gameweeks, so he has still been getting into dangerous positions despite recording back-to-back blanks.

And goals are expected when Norwich City host Aston Villa later today:

486 shots conceded by Arsenal (126), Aston Villa (121), Norwich City (121) and Bournemouth (118) combined this season. Those four clubs have allowed the most attempts on goal in the Premier League this season and play each other this weekend, with Norwich entertaining Aston Villa and Arsenal hosting the Cherries.

Compound Differential

The form of Riyad Mahrez has been discussed this week. The injury to Kevin De Bruyne and a potential ban for Bernardo Silva increasing his appeal.

Neale goes into impressive depth exploring not only how well Mahrez has performed this season, but also his potential for minutes. While the Algerian does not have the luxury of guaranteed game-time, Neale observed:

If we are to accept the occasional rest for [Sterling, Aguero, and De Bruyne], then why not the more affordable Mahrez?

The most transferred-in player ahead of the Gameweek 8 deadline and with an ownership fast approaching 10%, Mahrez just about squeezes into the differential category

But it’s as a “compound differential” that he could really make a difference. Appearing on the Scoutcast this week Tom, from Who Got The Assist?, explained:

Where I think Mahrez is really interesting is that because he’s a compound differential, so it’s not really a differential in and of itself, it’s a differential because you’re pairing him with other players and making a unique combination, which is a little bit different to everybody else.

Tom went on to point out that selecting a triple City midfield of Sterling, De Bruyne, and Mahrez is pretty maverick: that combination is owned by just 0.04% of managers.

Even selecting City’s three most highly-owned players – Sterling, De Bruyne, and Aguero – each owned by over 29% of managers, as a combination is only selected by 2.3%

In Case You Missed It

There was another take on the De Bruyne injury / Mahrez appeal, tuvok thinks that perhaps De Bruyne’s absence could have a negative impact on Mahrez.

Elsewhere, Sebastes asked can Spurs bounce back? And Meltens kindly previewed Gameweek 27 (only four Gameweeks to go!) in Fantasy Allsvenskan.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        So much this

        There’s no way I’m benching KDB with that absolute maniac in charge there’s still a chance he appears magically in the XI on Sunday - Cantwell first sub, Lundy second

      2. Mince n Tatties
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I'm doing exactly that
        KDB starting - Lundstram 1st sub

  4. Bonus magnet
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Captain Salah or Aguero?

    Currently on Salah

    1. rowdog24
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Yep - keep

    2. fr3d
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Aguero

    3. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I am on Salah as well. Not taking a risk capping Kun.

    4. Teomi
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I like the risk reward potential in kun... I’m going for it, I think he will start due to the ib

    5. Genji3lade
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Kun (c)

  5. rowdog24
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Marks out of 10 for this WC? Have left exact money to do Pukki to Vardy next week.

    Roberto (Button)
    Tomori, Cathcart, Diop (Soyuncu, Rico)
    Salah, Sterling, Mount, Yarmalenko (Saka)
    Auba, Abraham, Pukki

    1. Whiskerz
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Watford defense?

    2. Pinturicchio10
        4 years, 5 months ago

        3

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      So the consensus is that Mahrez is benched?

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        If so I think I'm gonna WC.
        Having my worst start to session since I started playing.

      2. n-doggg
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Nobody real know? He is obviously not a nailed on starter though is he

      3. rowdog24
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Yep

      4. fr3d
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Sterling - Aguero - Mahrez

        Is my guess

        1. Weasel Boy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Hope you're right.

      5. abaalan
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Predict sterling - Jesus - b. Silva as front 3

      6. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        It's 50-50 and I'm wildcarding if that happens and probably even if I'm lucky

      7. JollyGoodYellows
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Sterling Aguero Bilva is my guess... But you have more chance of winning the lottery than guessing right!

    4. Danstoke82
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Pukki (c) over Aguero too risky? Am chasing in my ML and know the leaders will captain sterling (don’t own him)

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        It's arguably less risky because he's a sure starter

        1. andres
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          this is true but it sounds crazy doesn't it?

          1. Wild Rover
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            I have both and I'm going with Aguero

    5. Ginkapo FPL
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      If Shaw was fit would you want him in your team?

      1. Ginkapo FPL
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Trying to decide whether to swop him to Tomori for a hit as I am iffy on getting an XI out this weekend. Only makes sense if I dont want Shaw long term.

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Reason not to want him long term is his injury risk

          Shaw and Martial. Sell when injured. Buy when fit

          1. Ginkapo FPL
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            I still have both 🙁

            1. Ze_Austin
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 5 months ago

                • 12 Years

                Thanks

      2. fr3d
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        No, he’ll get injured again.

      3. FOO FIGHTER

      • 14 Years

      Predicted City XI & scoreline? I’ll spin the wheel first:

      Ederson
      Walker, Ota, Fern, Zink
      Gundogan, Rodri
      Bilva, Dilva, Sterling
      Jesus

      City 3 - 1

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I agree with this

      2. Boss Hogg
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Same as yours but with aguero starting.

        5-0

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          I think he might look to hook Sterling early around the 50th minute mark if they’re comfortable & spring Kun from the bench if needed, otherwise if they’re comfortable bring Mahrez on for Sterling early doors instead

      3. Teomi

          Interesting, Mahrez & Kun instead of Jesus & Gundogan?

          I just wonder whether he can’t really go without Gundogan in there tomorrow with no KDB

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

      5. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

        I’m starting him simply because this would be the most Pep thing that Pep could do

    19. RonnayBarkay

      Sell KDB or bench him...?

      1. Pacer.
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Bench. Guaranteed to need to but him back. Cost minimum 2FT and locking extra cost into a player for probably the whole season. For the sake of one game

    23. shawry
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Morning all!

      Stuck with 2 FTs, £0.4m ITB. Initially wanted Aubam but don’t want to lose Salah, so now thinking to use 1 only.
      Also WC already used.

      Pope
      Ota - TAA - Lundstram - Digne
      Salah - Sterling(c) - Mount - Cantwell
      Pukki - Tammy

      Subs: Button, Greenwood, Soyuncu, KDB

      Cheers!!

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah thought that, maybe Tomori?

          1. andres
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 5 months ago

            yeap, as you already have soy that would be my next pick. Will give you a great defence actually,

    24. Clogstar
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I bought Aurier for 5.0, his current price is 5.0 so how is his selling price 4.9? Is it me or is this a glitch?

      1. CRO KLOPP
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        His cp is 4.9

      2. andres
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        price drop

      3. CostaCoffee
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        He’s 4.9

      4. LC1
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        His current price is 4.9

      5. Clogstar
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Yea I see the 4.9 now. Maybe I had an old page up. Cus I went to list view, it showed pp=5.0, Cp=5.0, sp= 4.9

    25. V-2 Schneiderlin
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      thinking of ditching Ceballos this week. Best midfield at 5.7m or less?
      Already have Cantwell
      Pity I'm short of McGinn
      McTominay?

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Saka as a punt, otherwise no good options really. Find the extra for Yarmolenko maybe

    26. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Should I WC with Mahrez doubts?
      Used FT already

      Ederson
      TAA Digne Lundstram
      Salah Sterling(c) Mahrez Cantwell*
      Barnes Pukki Tamny

      Button Guilbert Rico Dendonc

      1. Cookie Kid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        I wouldn’t wildcard just for Mahrez doubts, though if you want to in general...

        I am pressing WC personally after today to jump on Leicester Chelsea and Auba fixtures

      2. Warby84
        • 8 Years
