Scout Picks

Gameweek 23 Scout Picks includes Liverpool and Chelsea double-up

We have double-up on Liverpool and Chelsea assets for Gameweek 23 in our latest Scout Picks XI.

Every week we chose our optimum line-up for the upcoming round of Fantasy Premier League action.

We spend some time deliberating over the Scout Squads submitted by David, Neale, Paul and Geoff earlier in the week to find the best selection.

For Gameweek 23 we are lining up in a 3-4-3 formation and come in at £83.0m, £2.0m under our budget of £85.0m.

Goalkeeper

Recent improvements at Arsenal have opened new options for Fantasy managers including goalkeeper Bernd Leno (£5.0m). During Mikel Arteta’s time in charge of the Gunners, only three teams have conceded fewer big chances than them, a far cry from how they looked at the back under Unai Emery. Furthermore, during that same period, upcoming opponents Sheffield United are second only to Burnley for shots on target.

Defenders

Liverpool have kept six clean sheets in a row now and sit top of the Premier League for fewest shots in the box conceded during that time. Meanwhile, no player has fashioned more big chances than Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.5m) during that period.

Chelsea’s trip to Newcastle could produce returns at both ends of the pitch for Reece James (£5.0m). Having started each of the last two matches, the right-back put up 10 crosses in Gameweek 22, more than any other defender. Meanwhile, only four teams have allowed fewer goal attempts in the box than Chelsea since Gameweek 19, a period in which Newcastle sit inside the bottom four for shots on target.

There was plenty of interest in the Brighton defence for Gameweek 23 in our Scout Squad submissions. Lewis Dunk (£4.8m) is the man who makes the final selection. Upcoming opponents Aston Villa have blanked in two of their last three away trips so there is clean sheet potential for the Seagulls this weekend. Meanwhile, given how poor Villa’s defence is, it could serve Dunk well that he has had more headed attempts than any of his colleagues in 2019/20.

Midfielders

Another big Salah haul asks tough questions of FPL managers

Liverpool do often struggle when they face Manchester United but their attacking assets come into Gameweek 23 in fine statistical form. We’ve gone with Mohamed Salah (£12.3m) as our chosen representative as he has been displaying goal threat and creativity in equal measure over the last four Gameweeks.

Kevin de Bruyne‘s (£10.7m) creativity has made him a hugely reliable asset of late and the return to form of those around him has only boosted him further. Having fashioned three big chances in the last four Gameweeks (the joint-second-highest in the league), we expect more returns against Crystal Palace. The Eagles may prove hard to break down but they are still without a clean sheet on the road since Gameweek 16.

James Maddison (£7.7m) comes into the Scout Picks as a late change following Richarlison’s reported injury on Friday afternoon. We thought about replacing him with a fellow Everton colleague but the Brazilian missing out on Gameweek 23, as well as Gylfi Sigurdsson, may well reduce their attacking potential at West Ham. Instead, Maddison comes in ahead of a meeting with Burnley’s obliging defence. In the last four Gameweeks, only two sides have conceded more goal attempts from set plays than the Clarets.

Todd Cantwell (£4.9m) and his Norwich colleagues are fortunate enough to face Bournemouth at their lowest ebb in Gameweek 23. The Cherries have conceded 10 goals in their last four matches while Cantwell has registered a 10-point haul in each of his last two starts at Carrow Road.

Forwards

 1

We expect Jamie Vardy (£10.1m) to get back to his earlier season form in a Gameweek 23 trip to Burnley. While he has struggled recently, the Leicester man’s last three outings were against Manchester City, Liverpool and Southampton, who it turns out are now one of the best defences in the league. By contrast, Burnley have given up 23 goals in seven matches against last season’s top-six in 2019/20, more than any other side. While that mantle does not technically apply to Leicester, they have played like a team of this quality for much of the campaign and should make life very hard for the Clarets.

Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) has been creeping under the radar to some extent recently, producing attacking returns in each of his last three outings. This weekend he faces a Newcastle defence that has conceded the second-highest number of big chances over the last four Gameweeks.

No player has had more shots in the box than Danny Ings (£6.8m) over the last four matches, suggesting his incredible run of form is sustainable. Gameweek 23 pits Southampton against a Wolves side flagging a little as their relatively small squad struggles to compete on so many fronts this season. We are expecting Ings to extend his current run which stands at five goals in as many matches.

Substitutes

Mathew Ryan (£4.9m) is an alternative option in the Brighton defence with 13 saves in the last four Gameweeks.

It’s three clean sheets in the last five for Everton so we’ve included budget option Mason Holgate (£4.4m) on our substitute’s bench.

Jack Stephens (£4.3m) is a cheap route into the Southampton defence which has impressed recently.

Leandro Trossard (£5.8m) makes it onto the Scout Picks bench ahead of facing that hugely obliging Aston Villa defence on Saturday afternoon.

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.

Here’s how we voted for Gameweek 23: 

Community Champion

Representing the community against the Scout Picks in Gameweek 23 is Rude Reviewer.

They have gone for a 3-4-3 of Schmeichel; R James, Mendy, Dunk; Sterling (c), de Bruyne, Son, Richarlison; Abraham, Vardy, 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 Pep Pig was defeated by the Scout Picks in Gameweek 22, losing by a 72-64 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.

    Well DZ, revised WC on account of my fav asset of late (Richarlison) being injured!
    Love to hear your thoughts and suggestions as always...captain set in stone though so pointless commenting about that 😉

    Henderson

      Brave to go without KDB. He is the ultimate punisher but team looks decent.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        True, Cheers mate!

    2. JT11fc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Looks good. Gutted my differential Rich is out although im just benching. I was considering Maupay but am on Ings now

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yup, me too, sickening tbh as I've had him over the past 4 or 5 GWs and even captained him v City when he was my highest scoring layer of the GW!

        1. JT11fc
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Nice! I capped last week

    3. Klein
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I once sold kdb. It was horrible.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Haha, yeah could work out that way...just set on a very different team in the hope of a miracle rise through the ranks mate!

    4. SH
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Hayden in place of Choudhury

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, cheers, but prob doesn't really matter though mate as nothing between the two 4.3s, Hayden more nailed but never likely to grab any attacking return, Choudury less nailed but can grab something attacking wise when he plays! Most weeks they will be back of my bench and I don't have BB to worry about

    5. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      It looks good Eiffel your chasing.
      Mahrez and Aguero instead of KDB should be ok.

      Don’t like Choudury

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Chasing big time, hence the WC and differential picks mate, Choudury is just bench fodder...never likely to see the light of day in my team!

        1. The 12th Man
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          I’m chasing too, I’ll be using my wild card but closer to 30.
          I’ll be looking to treble up on either Liverpool or Sheffield Utd defence.
          Hoping Arsenal have gained momentum and Son too.

          1. jia you
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Ooooh, I don't really enjoy double ups let alone triple ups but actually it really might be a really good play if I'm honest! Son is the one that me and many on here are hopeful on finding form! GL

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

      Like it

      Amused by your insistence on Mane. Can't see he's any more dangerous than Vardy KdB or Lund and his replacement Mo is still differential and will worst case scenario track him closely.

      Double defence smart choice no doubt but I'd have gone with Bobby F for DGW anyway.

      GL

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers Pingy, I just prefer Mane IRL and would be far more annoyed if he hauled (not owning him) that I would be with Salah! Nothing to do with ownership and maybe a mistake on my part letting my emotions interfere with a game but that's the way it is, I'm only human ish! 😉

    Bench boost is active. Time to give up on FPL.

    1. Slam
      • 8 Years

      In most cases I'd say A, but your team looks very good so C for me, it's a fun punt I reckon will pay off

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    I am chasing severly right now. Part of it is because of safe/bad captaincy choices. Could use some help. Who should I captain this gw? Salah, KDB or Vardy (or Ings)?

    1. JT11fc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Ings for punt or Vardy safe

    2. BrutalLogiC
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Have same 4 like most others i guess, im going Vardy simply because he is more likely to score, odds like 1.8 2.2 2.5 Vardy ings kdb, he's 20/1 for hat trick:)

  7. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Should I get Mane right away or after this weekend? A or B for this gw?

    A. Maddison (bur) + Jimenez (sou) / 343
    B. Mane (MUN) + Cantwell (BOU) / 352

  8. The 12th Man

      That armband decision though. Good luck!

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I know.
        Figured it’s probably the last week in a while the armband wont move from a Liverpool player in a while. So time for an out there punt just for this week.

            Well played with your Aguero (c) last week.
            Enjoyed your interview and then you demonstrated by your transfer how it’s done.

  9. whosBenj
    • 5 Years

    5.3inb next gw, which forward to get?

    So I can bring in Mane. Greenwood an option?

    1. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Or Ayew.
      Yes if you have a decent 5 th midfielder or A playable 4th defender that can rotate with Cantwell or Fleck.

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

      If Martinelli plays today, he could work

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yep or him

  10. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Wonder if Mourinho is going to start Tanganga. Would be great for bench at his price should he become nailed!

  11. BrutalLogiC
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Keep or hold Guaita?

    1. Kip
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Keep unless you have a ft to burn. Then i’d go for Ryan/Mccarthy

    2. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'd either keep or hold him 😉

  12. Kip
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Phew, that Tammy rise (while Salah didn’t) gives me the exact funds for Tammy+Alli=> DCL+Salah after the deadline

    Noice 😎

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Great moves , but wait till till the weekend games have been played or until your forced by price changes

      1. Kip
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I would but i’m assuming a Salah rise will force me to make the moves tonight

        Could be worse though

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah maybe just wait and see now. Gl with your gwk

        4 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks need to do a -4 to bring in Martial and mcarthy since fab is injured and I am playing without a keeper this gw

  14. JT11fc
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    So for captaincy im on Ings currently, my thinking is if he had so many chances at Leicester (admitedly minus Ndidi) surely against a tired Wolves he is actually a good option?

    1. FCSB
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      It’s an educated decision mate

      1. JT11fc

      In my hungover state I want to say that I always appreciate responses to my posts and hope that I've replies to each and all most of the time! What irritates me is managers on here who post and just take the replies without responding or thanking the individual who took the time to feed them!
      If you have the time to be on here and post something at least try to make the little bit of time that it takes to respond to fellow forum members (especially when in the DZ when it's nice and quiet)
      ...not a today thing, just something I've noticed over the years

              Do I play Traore (sou) or DCL (whu)?

                • 7 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                DCL without a doubt! I'm a bit annoyed as had Richarlison and Digne in my 'final' WC draft but that injury threw it all out the window and now I'm without Everton assets (think they'll do well over the next 3-4 GWs)

              4. Party time

                Would you Captain Aguero if you had him? Its between a) Aguero b) de Bruyne c) Salah for me. Thoughts?

                1. Dynamic Duos
                  • 10 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  Yeah could be a great differential

                    • 7 Years
                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    Yeah, thats my thougth. A bit worried about gametime though

                      • 10 Years

                      Should start today

                  • 13 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  I have Aguero and yes I have captain him... you should make him captain too...
                  otherwise it is criminal to have aguero in the team if you are not going to captain him.

                    • 10 Years

                    It would be rude, right?

                    That's a bit rude, I've Aguero but Maupay captain! It's a game mate and on any given GW anything can happen 😉

                      Did Vardy + Rico -> Aguero + Robertson. Had 5m itb.

                    Between the three of them it's 100% Kun! I've just bought him, 30mins ago, due to Richarlison's injury but had my captain chosen beforehand and don't like changing! GL

                  By the way....
                  if Liverpool 0-1 ManUtd kind of result will come....
                  so many people will cancel their planning of triple captain right??!!!

                    I don’t think TC is an easy decision, 2 away games and LIV haven’t been demolishing teams recently, they’ve been scoring and just killing the game hey

                  Who to pick?

                  Webster or Dunk?

                  Both offers some goal threat...

                  Cantwell in for Traore for a 1 week punt? Would mean i need to take -4 to get Mane in before next GW. Or just save the FT this week?

                  1. Rico / Kelly >> Dunk [play 442]
                  2. Greenwood >> DCL [play 343]
                  3. Dendoncker >> Doucoure [play 352]

                  Leaning towards 1 as Greenwood could be good v Burnley but would appreciate some comments and advice from you knowledgeable guys!

                  I have no idea who to captain lol

                  A) Ings
                  B) KDB
                  C) Vardy

                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    Well I think Ings is a great differential punt at home against a weary Wolves, but the captains poll suggests not many others do.

                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  If Rash is out (or when he knackers his back this weekend) how do United set up? I'm clearly thinking GW24 here.

                  Also vaguely shocked to see Mata minutes this season - has he been injured? He's such a cracking player.

                  1. Holmes
                    • 10 Years
                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    Wasting his talent on bench, especially when they need some creative machine in team. Even Lingard has played more games 😮

                    1. pingissimus
                      • 5 Years
                      4 years, 2 months ago

                      So just benched - they don't deserve him then. Not a close United watcher but you're right he seems just what they need(ed).

                  2. FOO FIGHTER
                    • 4 Years
                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    Greenwood will probably start if Rash is out.

                11. FOO FIGHTER
                  • 4 Years
                  4 years, 2 months ago

                  UTD without Rashford not going to end well IMO.

                  Salah(c). Liverpool will throttle UTD!

                    Which third pool player do you want for next GW? Mané, Robertson, VVD or Firmino?

                  That Richarlison injury just took my transfer hits to the next level this GW. A good old -12, but to be honest it does not scare me more than playing Rico, Greenwood, Guaita & AWB 🙂

                  Who to captain?

                  All chips intact. 0FTs 0ITB

                  Ryan
                  TAA - Sidibé - Stephens
                  Salah - KDB - Mahrez - Maddison - Doucouré
                  Vardy - Firmino

                  (Button, Greenwood, Rico, AWB)

                  1. FOO FIGHTER
                    • 4 Years
                    4 years, 2 months ago

                    -12 is heavy. I took a -12 earlier in the season and came back to bite.

                    I am on Salah for cap.

                      4 years, 2 months ago

                      But tbf I'd expect Ryan, Stephens, Mahrez & Firmino to outscore Guaita, Söyüncü, Greenwood & Rico/AWB by 12 points this GW..

                      Atleast it was not enough problems to use my secodn WC without the info about DGWs late this season.
                      Those using WC this GW must have had more issues to fix than me surely. A -12 is simply not enough to put yourself in a somewhat hard position before the final 1/4 of the season due to no WC.

                    So you lost Fab, Rich and Rash? Bad luck! Who else?
                    TAA could be cheeky punt as Utd not likely to score!

                      Nah. Took out Guaita + Rash earlier this week -> Ryan + Firmino. Had exact money before Ryan went up (-4)
                      Had the exact same bench and were happy to field Rich and Söy ofc.
                      Then Rich was out, and him and Söy became Mahrez and Stephens 😀
                      150K OR. Something has to happen, and it won't happen playing Rico & Greenwood this GW.

                    Nice side and decently set up for future if you think Bobby will continue to beast away fixtures - Liverpool aren't at home much in next few

                    Actually laughed out loud at AWB - when did you last make any transfers? (LOL doesn't really cut it as laugh out loud does it?)

                      AWB has done quiet nice tbf. 2/3 returns when I played him.
                      Got him in as a punt, and I will play him next week at home against the toothless Burnley 😉

                      But yes - I will boot him after Wolves 😀
