Scout Picks

Gameweek 16 Scout Picks built on Liverpool and Leicester

Liverpool and Leicester continue to act as the spine for the Scout Picks yet again this season.

The two clubs account for four players in the selection for Gameweek 16, which kicks off on Saturday afternoon with Chelsea’s trip to Everton.

As per usual, we line up in the 3-4-3 formation and fell just within the budget this time, on £82.9m.

Goalkeeper

Guaita has recorded back-to-back clean sheets for Palace

Vicente Guaita (£5.0m) has now delivered two eight-point hauls in a row as interest in Crystal Palace defence continues to rise. Having kept out both Burnley and Bournemouth, the Eagles travel to Vicarage Road on Saturday afternoon to face a Watford side that has registered the fewest shots on target of any Premier League team in their last four home matches. Meanwhile, Guaita himself has produced three saves in seven of his last eight outings.

Defenders

Alexander-Arnold has three assists in his last two matches

After showing potential for so long without delivering, Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.3m) now has three assists in his last two Premier League matches. Over the last four, no Liverpool player has created more than his nine chances so there is every chance that more attacking returns will follow in Gameweek 16. Furthermore, Bournemouth have mustered just three big chances since Gameweek 12, the joint-lowest in the league, so there is some clean sheet potential too.

Serge Aurier (£4.9m) can continue to offer value in the Spurs defence, even if it’s taking a little time to build up clean sheet potential under Jose Mourinho. A home meeting with Burnley could be just the time to get that first shutout under the new regime, as the Clarets are in the bottom three for shots on target of their last four away matches. Meanwhile, Aurier himself is third among all Spurs players for key passes since Mourinho’s first match in Gameweek 13.

Crystal Palace might be short a few first-choice defensive options but should still fancy their chances of a clean sheet in Gameweek 16. They face a Watford side that has blanked in six of their last 10 league games and will be encouraged by the performances of Cheikhou Kouyaté and Jeffrey Schlupp, who filled in at centre-back and left-back when required against Bournemouth. Therefore, nailed-on budget man Martin Kelly (£4.1m) is an easy inclusion in the Scout Picks for the weekend.

Midfielders

Mané is in excellent form for Liverpool right now

Sadio Mané (£12.3m) lit up Gameweek 15 with his scintillating 15-point haul against Everton and arguably should have pushed himself into the 20s after missing two big chances. We believe the Liverpool man will do enough to avoid rotation against Bournemouth, who have conceded at least twice in three of their last four Premier League games.

Dele Alli (£8.6m) has exploded into life since Jose Mourinho arrived at Tottenham Hotspur. The midfielder has played in four matches in all competitions and has amassed a total of five attacking returns in them, from four goals and one assist. While Spurs looked below par against Manchester United, Alli still displayed his quality with a well-taken goal at Old Trafford. A home meeting with Burnley, who have struggled against the bigger clubs this season could see him continue his incredible revival. Against sides who finished in the top-six last season, Sean Dyche’s men have conceded 13 times in four matches so far.

With four attacking returns in his last six outings, James Maddison (£7.6m) is proving one of the more reliable options in the mid-price midfielder bracket this season. Over the last four Gameweeks, only two players have created more chances than him and he’s scored twice, registering the same number of shots on target as Danny Ings, Gabriel Jesus, Alli and Mané. Maddison’s next opponents Aston Villa have allowed more shots in the box than any other side this season and conceded the most set-pieces goals too, boosting Maddison’s chances of returns.

Christian Pulisic (£7.5m) has been rather unfortunate not to have registered attacking returns in any of his last three Premier League matches, having scored five in the three before them. Still, since Gameweek 12, the American has registered 13 shots in the box, the joint-third in the league and more than any of his colleagues. Everton come into Gameweek 16 having finally parted company with Marco Silva. While Duncan Ferguson might bring out a spirited performance from the Toffees, he will certainly have his work cut out. Everton have conceded a total of nine goals across their last three outings, including a 2-0 home defeat to strugglers Norwich City.

Forwards

Who are the best FPL captain candidates for Gameweek 15?
Vardy is very much an auto-include option right now

Do we even need to explain why Jamie Vardy (£10.0m) gets included in the Scout Picks now? The Leicester City forward continued his scoring run against Watford from the penalty spot and now has 11 goals in his last nine Premier League matches, netting in the last seven in a row. Gameweek 16 pits the division’s most in-form player against an Aston Villa side that has conceded more shots in the box than any other side this season.

Raúl Jiménez (£7.7m) may have blanked against West Ham but that was not for lack of trying. Over his last four matches, the Wolves forward has registered 18 shots in the box, four more than any other player, and sits second place for shots on target too. Jiménez has three attacking returns in that time so has been delivering on a relatively regular basis. Meanwhile, upcoming opponents Brighton are bottom of the league for shots conceded in the box over the last four Gameweeks.

Danny Ings (£6.2m) just cannot stop scoring right now, having found the net in each of his last four Premier League matches. The Southampton man looks to have been setting some sustainable numbers too, with only two players registering superior minutes per expected goal involvement (xGI) since Gameweek 12. Meanwhile, only Brighton have allowed more shots in the penalty box over the last four matches.

Substitutes

Rui Patrício (£5.2m) could be in for a second clean sheet in quick succession this weekend. Wolves are fourth-best for fewest big chances conceded over the last six Gameweeks and the Portuguese international has made a minimum of three saves in five of his last seven outings.

Kurt Zouma (£4.7m) could prove an effective route into Chelsea’s side this weekend. Only Aston Villa have conceded more goals from set-pieces than Everton, which could allow Zouma to demonstrate his threat from corners and free-kicks.

Sheffield United may have come unstuck against Newcastle but we think they can come back stronger at Norwich, whose defence is still giving up chances. John Lundstram (£5.1m) is therefore included as the second of our benched defenders.

John Fleck (£4.9m) could also benefit from Norwich’s poor defence in Gameweek 16 and has been posting some good numbers to back that up. Over the last four Gameweeks, he is top for key passes among Sheffield United players while only one colleague has managed more shots on target in that time.

The Captain

The Scout Picks has a captain for the 2019/20 campaign.

This skipper is chosen using the conclusions of the latest Captain Sensible article and a four-way vote between David, Neale, Paul and Geoff.

Because the use of Fantasy Football Scout data is used so heavily in this process, the captain we choose each Gameweek will be known only to those who have signed up to Membership for the 2019/20 season.

It will be revealed to the public only when the deadline for the Gameweek has passed.

Community Champion

Representing the community against the Scout Picks in Gameweek 16 is Boleyn Boy.

They have gone for a 3-4-3 of Martin; Doherty, Alderweireld, Lundstram; Son, Sterling, Salah (c), Mount; Jesus, Pukki, Maupay

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.

Community Champion Camzy was defeated in Gameweek 15, the Scout Picks winning by a 54-50. score-line.

The current winning margin of 17 points recorded by irfansheikh in Gameweek 7 and AK in Gameweek 10 remains the score to beat.

      Zaha has good fixtures. Thinking of getting him as 4th/5th mid,

  8. Tambling5
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Worried that Klopp will give two of my three Pool players a rest. Have TAA , Robbo and Mane. With Firm and Mo to come back in, who knows?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      2. ZimZalabim

        and yes have a good/playing bench

    2. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      TAA went off early
      I think Robbo is most at risk of rotation and I think Mane starts but goes off early

      1. Tambling5
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Oh well. Tomori and Rico are itching to get on!

        1. Pumpkinhead *non-expert*
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Maybe Tomori* We don't know if he'll continue to start.

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

            I think Christensen was giving Tomori a rest. I think he'll play till Rudiger back.

      Wouldn't want to lose KDB.
      Need City cover.

  14. andres

    Is it time to drop kdb?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Same question ... I maybe doing it

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Break the template

        1. Magic Zico
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          I am ok with template with 2-3 good differentials ... especially with value intact on KDB. But Alli ...

        2. nolard
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          He is not the one to let go though.

    2. el polako
      • 6 Years

      Why ?

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Madds, pulisic, alli, son...

        You cant have them all

      2. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Probably Alli

    3. Francescoli
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      terrible idea imo

      1. Magic Zico
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Get rid of Salah was terrible idea at some point

        1. Francescoli
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          That’s true but Salah was/is getting fluid drained out of an ankle.

          KDB such good value in arguably the best attacking team in the league.

          1. Gianluca Busio's Hair …
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            I don't know that he's such good value. he's good....

            1. Magic Zico
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              This

          2. Magic Zico
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Understandable that's why we are debating it. But if you could have Mane Alli Maddison Pulisic Vardy Rashford Abraham ... and Grealish/Zaha as backup ...

    4. Buck The Trent
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Tempted

    5. Gianluca Busio's Hair …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I dont know if it's "time" but dropping him would give me a midfield of Alli - Mane - Pulisic - Maddison or Zaha.

      i want that.

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Bingo!

  15. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Ok Vardy will score once and will get 6-7 points but is it worth to risk and captain Dele in case he hauls once again?
    And finally you don't lose that much...
    (I had a very bad start and I now started going up the ranks currently on 1.5 m so I may have to risk)
    Thnaks

  16. Atimis
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Wanna bring Dele, can fit him in place of KDB, Maddison, Pulisic or switch to 352 but it would mean no Tammy.

    Thoughts?

    1. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Similar dilemma ... still can't make firm decision

    My team is pretty template-ish. Anyone with similar who still has a wildcard to play? What’s your plans? I’m struggling to see the best way to use it

  23. Midfield Minefield
    HollyShand
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    What do you think will be the next midfield template?

    I feel like I'm at a crossroads with my midfield. I have Sadio Mane, Kevin De Bruyne and James Maddison, who are going nowhere. I'm still rolling with Mason Mount, who redeemed himself with a goal last time out. I have Todd Cantwell as my fifth midfielder, who's a worthy fill-in when needed.

    Mason Mount is the position I'm looking to change this week: I can afford the straight swap to Christian Pulisic or a move to Dele Alli for a hit. I'm really torn with which move would be better long-term.

    In my opinion, the ideal midfield would contain the following:
    - Man City midfielder
    - Liverpool midfielder
    - Leicester midfielder
    - Chelsea midfielder
    - Spurs midfielder

    It's hard to achieve this, without going for a shift in formation to a 3-5-2, but with the likes of Abraham, Jimenez, Vardy, Ings and Rashford all performing too, it's very difficult to squeeze them in.

    So the question I'm asking is... if you were on a wildcard would you choose a 4 or 5 man midfield and who would be in it?

    1. IRBOX ⚽

      My current midfield:

      Salah, KDB, Alli, Maddison, Pulisic.

            Will you captain Salah?

              100%

      2. HollyShand
        • 4 Years

        Other than Salah, I like it! What about forwards then?

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Vardy Tammy. Looking at Rashford though at perhaps the expense of Pulisic or Maddison

          1. HollyShand
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Is double Chelsea too much with Tammy fit and firing? Your team value must be immense!

            1. Fitzy.
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              It's easily doable with average team value?

              1. IRBOX ⚽
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                I have a relatively average team value, but good sale value. No value tied up in Vardy, No Mane and jumped off Mount.

      3. Pieterke30

        « Sorted » at 2.5mil OR because you dont have Mané.

      You're overcomplicating a trivial decision.

    3. Francescoli
      • 9 Years

      Four in midfield the way to go right now, with all the forwards firing.

      1. Francescoli
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        happy with my top 7 at the moment but this is bound to change by next week. Vardy is enough Leicester coverage in attack imo.

        Mane Son KDB Pulisic
        Vardy Rashford Jimenez

        1. HollyShand
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Nice lineup Jeanz - Double Leicester defence looking better value than Maddison at the moment!

          1. Francescoli
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Agree! I like Maddison but there’s too much points distribution in the Leicester midfield. Rather stick with Vardy and 1-2 Leicester defenders.

      2. jtreble
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        ... and better value oddly enough.

        1. Francescoli
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          True

    4. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yes if 3-5-2 then those .
      Maybe throw Grealish in there too.

      Rashford looks good though and could stop 5 in midfield if Jimenez doesn’t tail off.

      1. HollyShand
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeh I'm closely monitoring Jimenez now. Grealish has great fixtures after this week and should rightly be in the conversation.

    5. Karan14
      • 7 Years

      Mane Alli Pulisic KDB/Son

      Guaita

      Martin - Tomori - Rico - Greenwood

    7. fgdu

      i play 5 man mid, considering dropping liverpool def so i can have a nice front 8

      1. fgdu
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        with ings and mousset its a lot easier to do, plus kellys fixtures

    8. Pumpkinhead *non-expert*
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I'm happy with my front 7

      Salah, Son, Kdb, Mads
      Vardy, Ings, Jimmy

      Have almost 2 itb so can move on to almost anyone aswell

    9. the Penman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I’m currently on a 352 with:
      Mane KDB Alli Maddison Pulisic
      Vardy Jiménez (Connolly)

      I suspect that if Pulisic doesn’t buck up his shooting form and get back into the goals then he’ll become a 4.5m mid and Connolly will return to Abraham.

    10. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      My fourth midfielder is Mount who I just transferred in for Pulisic (rotation worry) and my fifth is Djenepo who I got an assist off 2 GW's ago.

      Rest of the mid is Mane, KDB and Alli.

      Attack: Jimenez, Vardy and Rashford

    11. leo_messi
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      I have exactly this

      Son KDB Mane Mount Maddison 🙂

    12. Polar_Bear
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I'm on Mane, KDB, Alli, Pulisic and Martial.
      Hoping Martial starts returning come next week. If not thinking Grealish

    13. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      At the minute got Salah, KDB, Alli, Maddison, Pulisic

      But remember - there are no templates in FPL, only pain

    14. HashAttack
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Definitely 3-4-3 this season - my front 7 is now
      Mane, Son, Alli, Madison
      Rashford, Vardy, Tammy

    15. Energetics
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I don’t feel like the Leicester mid is essential with Vardy up top.

      Very happy with my mid of Mane, KDB, Alli, Pulisic.

      I plan on bringing Rashford in alongside Vardy and then that last spot is the one open to debate.

      Have Jiminez currently but a move to Abraham or Maddison could be on the cards

    16. zøphar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I agree with the Liverpool mid and the Spurs mid, and to an extent the Chelsea mid because of the low price points.

      City mids im not so sure, they have so much talent there and as we saw, KDB/Sterling can come away with zero attacking involvement in four goals.

    17. Óró Sé…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Mane, Raz, KDB, Zaha

    18. Stikken
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Current midfield
      Mane, KDB, Pulisic, Maddison and Alli

      Current forwards
      Vardy, Rashford and Abraham.

      One good sub for christmas rotations

    19. The Red Devil
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Current front 7
      Mane kdb son Maddison
      Ings vardy Tammy

      Potential front 7 I'll have in a week or two
      Mane kdb alli Grealish/Maddison
      Rashford Vardy Tammy

    20. Alchim1sT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Regarding i will stick with my 3-4-3 formation ...

      Mane, Pulisic, Alli and Sterling/KDB + Cantwell/Traore

      If your Teamvalue doesnt allow this one ... Maddison is a good addition

  24. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Pope?
    TAA,Robertson,Soyuncu,Lundstrum
    Mane, KDB,Maddison,Son
    Vardy(c)Jimenez

    Button,Mousett,Cantwell,Rico 1FT 0.2m itb

    1. Save and play as is.
    2. Move Pope >> 4.8m?

    1. Gaddafi

      Both.

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Good team- I would save but would play Mousset away to Norwich and bench Söyüncü.

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeh bitten by Playing Mousett over Soyuncu midweek but your probably right.
        Thanks

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Would you play Mousset over Pereira aswell?

    3. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I have a very similar team and am struggling with the Mousset Vs Lundstram decision, you think Lund will outscore Mousset?
      Part of me thinks the decision will be made for us by klopp anyway.
      I changed Pope to Hendo last week. Might pay off over the run of decent fixtures and can't see any other pressing concerns.

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        It’s tough between Lundstrum,Soyuncu and Mousett.
        Don’t think there’s a logical answer. Pick one and hope.

        1. Rinseboy
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          I was all awt on benching Soy but now thinking to bench Lunds!

          1. Kay317
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            I'm currently benching Lund. Can see Mousset scoring and I can't bench a leicester defender when they keep bagging clean sheets. I have pereira over soy and he's been doing so well for me.

            1. The 12th Man
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              You certainly can’t bench Periera

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        It's a simple question. Not sure why I should go with the scout picks?

            Thanks, I think I'm getting too worried about prices.
            I can't believe he's rising again after so many transfers out last week.

    2. boc610
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      no

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Tammy is the better pick. Maybe not this week to make that move given the fixtures.

      1. Sedemuda
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks, probably best saving & having 2 FTs.
        Hate the way he's risen so fast!

    Pope, button
    Robertson, Chilwell, Lundstram, Kelly, Janmaat

    Maddison to Alli for a differential, yes or no?

  29. Twisted Saltergater
    • 14 Years

    Is Freddie going to have the balls to drop Lacazette and play Aubameyang through the centre, do you think? Or sell for Jesus (Man U, Arsenal)?

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      maybe he could try starting Pepe first.

    Dilemmas on who to bench? Does this look correct?

    Pope
    Kelly, VVD, Chilwell
    Mount, Mane, Zaha, Alli, KDB
    Vardy(c), Ings

    Jimenez, Lundstram, Pieter s

    1. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Think I'd play Lund over Kelly

    2. Sedemuda
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No.
      Bench Zaha before Jimmy.
