Scout Notes

Reasons to be cheerful for Aubameyang and Wilson owners after first blanks

Arsenal 1-0 Bournemouth

  • Goal: David Luiz (£5.8m)
  • Assist: Nicolas Pepe (£9.3m)
  • Bonus: Luiz x3, Calum Chambers (£4.4m), Sead Kolasinac (£5.4m)

A meeting between two of the more suspect defences in the Premier League failed to result in the goal-fest that many Fantasy managers were hoping for.

Arsenal and Bournemouth are both in the bottom four for attempts on goal conceded this season and had only one clean sheet between them going into Sunday’s match.

This corresponding fixture ended 5-1 in 2018/19 but despite the attack-first mindset of both head coaches, clear-cut chances were fairly thin on the ground and a David Luiz (£5.8m) header was all that separated the two clubs at the full-time whistle.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.0m) and Callum Wilson (£7.9m) hadn’t blanked at all in 2019/20 coming into this encounter but their purple patches would have to come to an end eventually, not least because they have been defying the numbers all season.

Overlooking Bournemouth’s Gameweek 7 meeting with West Ham (a game in which he had half a dozen goal attempts), Wilson has only had eight shots in seven starts this campaign.

Aubameyang, meanwhile, had scored with exactly a third of his efforts ahead of Sunday’s clash with the Cherries, a goal conversion rate (33.3%) that is seldom maintained over the course of an entire season – although he has been one of the best-performing strikers for that statistic since his move to north London.

Blanks duly arrived at the Emirates on Sunday but both players had clear sights of goal – although Aubameyang’s stoppage-time shot that hit the post would have been subsequently ruled out by VAR if it had found the back of the net.

Wilson’s only recorded goal attempt of the match also came seconds before the full-time whistle but he had a better chance to score earlier in the second half, dancing through the Arsenal backline and rounding Bernd Leno (£5.0m), only to fail to find Joshua King (£6.3m) with a pass when an empty goal beckoned (admittedly from a tight angle).

Eddie Howe said of that chance:

My natural instinct when he went round the goalkeeper was that he was going to try and go for goal but I don’t know the angle that he was left with. He’s made the decision to try and pass it. He’s got to make the decision in a split-second.

A glance at the Season Ticker should fill owners of Wilson and Aubameyang with optimism.

Bournemouth next face the two worst sides in the division for goals conceded (Norwich and Watford, who have shipped 41 goals between them), while Arsenal don’t face another big six club until mid-December.

The supporting cast of attacking assets didn’t have much to crow about either, with Nicolas Pepe (£9.4m) collecting an assist for Luiz’s goal but otherwise failing to show enough to warrant his inflated price tag.

Bukayo Saka (£4.5m) worked hard on the opposite flank without really threatening an attacking return and Alexandre Lacazette‘s (£9.3m) ever-nearing comeback will likely affect the teenage winger’s minutes in the near future, with Aubameyang potentially being moved back out to the left.

There was another blank for Dani Ceballos (£5.5m), while Harry Wilson (£6.1m) was fairly anonymous and Ryan Fraser (£7.1m), returning from illness, failed to make the starting XI for the fourth game in a row.

King was again deployed down the left flank of a 4-4-2 and, to the detriment of his owners, most of his good work was done out wide – although he was only a Calum Chambers (£4.4m) boot away from turning in Callum Wilson’s cut-back from point-blank range.

Chambers and the two defences indeed deserve some credit for the lack of gilt-edged chances, with Arsenal showing slow signs of improvement at the back over the last two Gameweeks and allowing the fewest number of shots in the box in that period.

Praising his defence, Unai Emery said:

We want to play with style, creating chances, being competitive and being consistent in the 90 minutes. We want to use that way. Our objective was first to win, and after to take that way.

In the first half, we did that. In the second half, they were pushing in some moments with their game plan and we struggled. We were defensively solid and strong. In the first half, it was a good example of the way [we want to play].

Asked about when the likes of Hector Bellerin (£5.4m), Kieran Tierney (£5.4m) and Rob Holding (£4.5m) could challenge for a league start, Emery replied:

Kieran and Rob are closer to playing. I think Rob Holding can play 90 minutes with a good performance. Now we are also working with David Luiz and Sokratis, but really, I am very happy. He is going to have a chance to play a lot of matches.

Kieran Tierney is closer to us, he played on Thursday and today he was on the bench if we needed him. Hector Bellerin needs a little more time, more matches and more training. This international break is going to be important for him. I think he will be closer to starting for us in the next matches in the Premier League.

A Bournemouth strength and an Arsenal weakness were again in evidence, though: the Cherries have recorded the most attempts from set plays in the Premier League this season, while the Gunners have allowed the second-highest number of chances from dead-ball situations.

It was perhaps no surprise, then, that two of Bournemouth’s best chances came from corners or free-kicks: Dominic Solanke (£5.4m) nodding wide with the goal gaping and Steve Cook (£5.0m) heading over late on.

Diego Rico (£4.1m) might not be clocking up too many clean sheets in the Bournemouth defence but so long as he is keeping Lloyd Kelly (£4.4m) out of the side then the Cherries’ reliance on set-piece deliveries works in his favour: the budget FPL asset is ranked second for successful corners since his return to the side in Gameweek 5.

Howe said of Kelly, who was among the substitutes, after full-time:

Great for him to be involved.

We rate him really highly and think he can play the dual role, the centre-half and the full-back role, which is a great thing to have in our armoury. A natural left-footer.

We like him a lot but this is really useful time for him to learn and develop himself while he’s not in the starting XI, so he becomes the complete player.

    A) Salah & Greenwood --> Maddison & Wilson
    B) Robertson + Pukki --> Tomori & Wilson
    C) Robertson + Greenwood--> Tomori & King

    I also have TAA so not very keen on double Liverpool defence in upcoming fixtures but probably would rather keep Pukki as I think his fixtures are quite good. Any thoughts?

    Thanks!

      1. Ian Davis
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Happy with the Otamendi choice? I could do for Tomori or Matic instead, but City’s fixtures still pretty good.

    Does anyone know the likelihood of a double game week before the new year? I know Liverpool will have at least 1 (possibly 2?) blanks when they are in the club World Cup thing. I’m considering holding my WC to help navigate this period. Appreciate any advice.

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

      I don't believe there is a free midweek for the DGW to be played before the new year.

    How's WC team looking?

    Pope, Button

    TAA, Soyuncu, Lundstram, Webster, Guilbert

    Mane, KDB, Maddison, Mount, Dendoncker

    Aubameyang, Vardy, Abraham.

    1. mattyb09
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Rico over Webster. Upgrade Dendocker to Guendouzi

    2. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Looks solid.

      I'm prob not playing mine but would also consider Gazzaniga, Boly, Hudson-Odoi and Wilson if I was. Not saying they're better than your picks, just a few alternatives I like.

  9. 007 [RoboKlopp]
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Mane or Auba if on wc?

    1. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I prefer Mane.

    2. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years

      Auba and get Mane in a few weeks another way

  11. Uncle Avram

    Liverpool have lost once in 47 league games, and Paul Merson thinks there's " no chance" Liverpool go unbeaten this season

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

      Paul Merson is a twonk. There's always a chance (albeit fairly small).

      1. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  13. Lucackadoodledoo
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Are salah owners starting to get very frustrated with his form? Is Mane the better option this year or will your patience persist?

    Interested to know.

    1. Bored Ape Jota Club
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Dropping him for Mane on WC.

    2. teneighty
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Yes and I don't know. If I decide to drop Salah it's not for Mané.

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

      Honestly when the fixture turn green I’ll be looking to bring both in.

      1. Lucackadoodledoo
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Think I'll be looking to do the same. Still going to hold onto Salah for now

  14. Wensink
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Have owned Harry Kane since GW 1 and currently sit at 35k.

    2 FT and 0 ITB.Would you transfer Kane or hold and expect him to come good?

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

      Surely not selling before Watford at home?

      1. Wensink
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        The blank when I captained Kane at home v Newcastle still stings.

    2. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I'd hold for Watford for sure.

  15. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    The age old question: is Wilson worth the extra over king?

    The season old question: is perreira worth the extra over soyuncu?

    Thanks

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

      Yes and no.

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

        My answer might be biased as I own both Wilson and Soyboy. 😀

        1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Hah, it seems the sensible way round though doesn't it. Really fancy a punt on a Bournemouth player for the next few gameweeks.

          I've always been a king person though. Wilson doesn't like to perform if I bring him in.

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

      Regarding pereira: great differential but it seems like he only offers attacking threat in home games. If I had the extra money I’d like to bring him in, but he’s a luxury pick.

      And yes, Wilson over king no doubt

      1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks very much. Yeah P would be a digne replacement so the money is there.

        Darn on Wilson :p

  16. Sgt Frank Drebin
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone considering Hudson-Odoi? Should start, 2 assists in 2 games, only 5.9... Son to CHO after the next game looks like a no brainer for me... Am I missing something?

    1. avfc82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      I like CHO, bought him in last week, he's returned in every game since back from injury (Grimsby, Brighton, Lille, Southampton), and don't think he's fully up to speed yet.

      1. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        I've noticed that you dont have Tammy yet. Are you planning to buy him?

        1. avfc82
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          Yes I think so mate, he'll probably replace Pukki if he doesn't get injured on international duty.

    2. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      He's done better that that I think in all comps. He scored in the carabao cup

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

      I’m considering him as well but it seems early days with him regarding him getting back to playing week in and week out, post-injury wise. But I definitely considering him

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        For me he looks like a season keeper for that price... But where to spend all the cash you save from the like of Mount, CHO, Abraham, Lundstram 😆

      People have Mount and Abraham and don't want to triple up, but they should look beyond "coverage" and realise the value that is there.

      Don't have any chelsea cover . Would he be sufficient to cover Chelsea attack ? Bit concerned by rotation

    6. Yank Revolution

      Already have Tammy and Mount, so no.

  17. chaser123
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    4 years, 5 months ago

    I've already taken a -8 and am considering whether to play my wildcard or not....

    My current squad is:
    Pope Button
    VVD Otamendi Tomori Rico Hanley
    Sterling KDB Maddison Mount Dendoncker
    Auba Vardy Abraham

    If I wildcard, my moves would just be to sort out my defence a bit (get TAA, Soyuncu and Kelly probably).

    What should I do? Stick with -8 or wildcard?

    1. 007 [RoboKlopp]
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Wc imo

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      It's a tough one. None of the players you want to get in are rising at the moment (as far as I know), so your not in a hurry to do so.

      Lean back, watch the internationals and reconsider when we get closer to deadline.

      1. chaser123
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Yeh that's a good shout - no point in playing yet until I see what happens in the internationals

  18. Bruno Bruno!!

    watch Pukki score a brace now everyone gets rid of him.

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

      I'm far more annoyed by the hauls I miss when I don't bring in a player I want than the ones I miss from a player I transfered out.

      1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Agreed

      2. FC Hakkebøf
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        What if the players you transfer in blanks? Double whammy surely

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

          Then I'd be super annoyed! Still easier to swallow when it's my active decision. 🙂

    2. FC Hakkebøf
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Your just as sour as me. I have no like-for-like replacement. So I'm forced to keep unless I take a hit. Let's hope the Pukki train gets back on track! Underlying stats are not ensuring, but Pukki is a statbuster! If you look past stats, 3 blanks from a midpriced forward is acceptable

      Considering Pope + Pukki -> Gazzaniga + Jimenez -4 though

    3. Goat
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Meh. Vardy will outscore him over next 10 anyway

  19. BrutalLogiC
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Happy to have only dropped 130k places after going into Sunday without Auba, Sterling, Mahrez and only 13 points after Salah capt -.^

  20. Wılly
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    A. Play VVD and roll a transfer
    B. Bring in Soyuncu for VVD
    C. Bring in Maddison for VVD & Dendoncker (-4)

  21. chuckles26
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Best Pukki replacement ???

    Vardy or Callum wilson??

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 12 Years

      I may opt for both...but Vardy if I had to choose

  22. The Mighty Whites
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 5 months ago

    Wilson or Vardy (got Maddison)

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson

    Had almost forgotten about Boly until now. Why is he so good for baps?

    2FT what to do:

    Ryan
    VanDijk Otamendi TAA
    Salah Cantwell Mount Sterling KDB
    Abraham Pukki

    Button Lunstram Kelly Greenwood

    0.4m ITB

    A - VVD + Pukki -> Soyuncu + Wilson/Vardy

    B - Pukki -> King

    C - VVD + Greenwood -> Soyuncu + King

    D - Something else

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      A with vardy

    Could I have some feedback on current team situation please and any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Ryan

    Van Dijk Tomori Lundstram

    Mane KDB Mount Maddison

    Aguero Vardy Abraham

    Button Cantwell Rico Kelly

    0.8 ITB

    Thoughts are to bring TAA in using money ITB. I rotate the 4.0m defenders based on fixture which has seemed to work quite well so far so happy to continue doing it.

    Be great to hear some brutally honest comments so go crazy

    Already own Mount and Abraham from Chelsea, and just Soyuncu from Leicester.

    Son, Pukki to which combo?

    A) Maddison
    B) CHO

    1) Vardy
    2) Wilson

    Thanks.

    Really struggling from a top 10k finish last year...currently ranked 1.9mil.

    Here's my current team, 0.5m in the bank, 1FT. Any suggestions more than welcome...

    Pope (Button)
    VVD / Zinchenko / Mings (Kelly, Lundstram) - the last 3 generally rotate.
    Sterling / KDB / Salah / Mount / Maddison
    King / Abraham (Greenwood)

    I'm not convinced there's any upgrades to be had up top for the money, unless selling Sterling or Salah, and I'm happy with the midfield. Considering premium defenders aren't really cutting it this year so far, I'm also not sure there's significant upgrades on my defence - Zinchenko to Azpilicueta (for fixtures and rotation, not form) was something that I considered but I see it as a sideways move.

    Any suggestions?

      Save imo

      The team you have is the template team that has been regarded as full of "must have" players since game week 3. Apart from the Chelsea boys most have underperformed which is why loads of us are disappointed with our rank, and floating round the 300,000 to 2,000,000 mark. Even if Salah, Sterling and KDB suddenly hit the heights again, then hundreds of thousands of people will improve with you. Consequently I decided to change my team this past couple of weeks and now have CHO, Auba, Son, Mane and Traore, and have ditched the big three. It probably won't work, but will be more fun.

        Interesting comment. Thing is that no-one in my cash league has those big 3, and ownership of Salah is very low in particular. Sterling in particular has disappointed (although 10th highest scorer in the game...) and if anyone is going, it's him.

        As for under-performing, KDB is the highest points scorer ad Salah 5th.

        Tempted to stick for a few weeks.

          If money involved then carry on with your tactics! Clearly safer to go with past performance as a guide. They may be high scorers but expense means not good value for money. I assumed that as your rank was disappointing, you were looking for a more radical change. Having gone from 50k to 500k in the last five weeks myself, and without the Chelsea boys, but otherwise similar team, I had got bored with awaiting Sterling to rediscover old form. Good luck in the cash league! I just play it like a game.

    What to do here? I want to get rid of Pukki and I also want some Leicester ''coverage'' in attack. Might need to settle for a Wolves attacker though as that allows me to keep both Son + Aguero in the team

    Pope
    TAA Soy Tomori
    Sterling KDB Son Mount
    Aguero Tammy Pukki
    __
    Button; Lundstram Kelly Hayden

    1 FT 0.0 ITB

    A) Pukki + Pope -> Jimenez + Gazzaniga -4
    B) Pukki + Son -> Vardy + Maddisson (+0.6) -4
    C) Aguero + Pukki + Son -> Auba + Vardy + Mahrez -8 (exact money)
    D) Pukki -> King

    C is just mentioned as a possibility. It's very unlikely that I would take a -8 involving getting rid of both Son + Aguero especially because we have no information on the Bernardo situation (which effects Mahrez' gametime)

      Hmmm. B out of those tbh mate but not sure on it. V difficult
