We are giving Fantasy Football Scout readers the chance to have a say in our upcoming content schedule.

These are unprecedented times as the Premier League season has been suspended until the end of April at the earliest owing to an outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) in the United Kingdom.

That has left many football fans and Fantasy managers twiddling their thumbs looking for something to distract them while Premier League balls go unkicked for an indefinite period.

For that reason, we want to know what you’d like to read about during the interim.

We will continue to examine the latest transfer trends despite no football being played, as well as looking at some features of the Members Area and bringing you all the latest news relevant to the Premier League.

But we want to make sure we are covering every possible angle, and to do that, we’d like to hear from you.

      What do you think will happen with thru Bury spot?
      Gotta have one team go up to fill the gaps in each league above surely?
      Will teams apply like they do in Scotland?

          If you keep Auba + Pool mids + Bruno, not much shifting can be done.

            This is true..- I would also like KDB back!

    Price Changes - 27th March 2020

    🔺  Schmeichel (5.4)

    🔻  Dunk (4.7)

      Thanks TM, glad to see somebody is still keeping an eye out for these.

      Hoping some bored players just go nuts sculpting their teams... I jumped 1000 spots this GW.

      I still maintain the league will be voided. European competition postponed a full year, completed in spring 2021.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Fix says Schmeichel went up on 62% accuracy, and Dunk down on an incredible 33%. Don't panic!

    4. Twisted Saltergater

      Dunk dunked

  4. Lucky Z
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    Your advice:

    A. Alli => Bruno (Alli bought at 8.6, now 8.
    3)
    B. Martial => Bruno

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      A

  5. fish&chips
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Best defender at 4.5m?

    1. The Wanton Trader
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      I’d probably say Fernandez.

      He’s pretty much a nailed on 90 minute player, with some attacking threat too.

      Newcastle’s remaining fixture list isn’t that bad either, should we get up a running at some point...

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 days ago

        Agreed - Fernandez for me

        1. fish&chips
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 2 days ago

          thanks lads

  6. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    You can actually get a Salah, Mane, KDB, Bruno midfield handily enough & still have TAA & a few decent defs if you're willing to go with DCL, Ings, Jota up front

    1. denial
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Yeah very possible. Few transfers I can do:

      Henderson / Mccarthy
      Doherty TAA Taylor Stephens Lascelles
      Mane Salah KdB Bruno 4.5
      DCL Ings/jota Jimenez

      1. denial
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 2 days ago

        Means no Leicester attackers though

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 days ago

          Yeah that's the kicker - those four mids prob overkill anyways

          Mane the most likely sacrificial lamb

    2. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Can't see many other strikers shoulders above DCL and Jota anyway.

  7. bitm2007
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    Yes. I'm thinking something like this is more balanced

    Pope, McCarthy
    TAA. AWB, Soy, Saiss, Egan
    Salah KdB Bruno, Barnes, Saka
    Auba, DCL, Jimenez

    1. bitm2007

      reply to above post

    2. Miguel Sanchez

      Any money left with that?

      1. bitm2007
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Low TV 104.9m, so only 0.4m

  8. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    Which 5th mid fodder potentially in BB fixture pile up:

    A) Fleck
    B) Cantwell

    1. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      B

    1. Klaren
      • 6 Years

      Based on the laws in place to protect employees, in most countries, players don't have to extend their contracts unless they wish to do so. Extension of the duration of an expiring contract is not a unilateral decision that can be taken by FIFA or the employers (football clubs).

      1. Drexl Spivey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 days ago

        It's not really just about contracts, it's about shifting the goalposts indefinitely to get the current seasons finished, up to and including transfer windows if needs be. I shouldn't imagine even the most want-away players would sniff at another few weeks wages until each club knows where it stands next year.

    Proud of most Irish players and how they conduct themselves, but cannot stand McClean https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/sport/soccer/james-mcclean-in-hot-water-over-history-lesson-social-media-post-990406.html

    1. The Wanton Trader
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      He’s always come across as a bit of t**t to me.
      On and off the pitch...

      1. Je suis le chat
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 days ago

        Rubbish player to boot, cannot believe he got the Irish sports player of the year a few years back when he could hardly get into the Stoke team.

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 days ago

          Because he usually plays out of his skin for Ireland and supporters love the way he also gets stuck in. Not even close to the best player to ever play for The Republic, limited in a lot of ways, but we'd be hard to find a more committed player. Off pitch he's prone to stupid stuff though and his background shouldn't excuse some of it.

    Know someone who works for NHS and was told that clapping is nice what really really helps is people staying at home - that simple.

    Still lots think - I'm ok so no bother can pop into shop even when dont really have to... wrong you might be silent carrier and pass it on to someone vurneable.

    1. Je suis le chat
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Surprised Sweden have taken the approach of business as usual. I think the most important thing is to take Ashley Youngs approach: see everyone else as carrying the virus and take the required steps. We can't be complacent for a second.

  11. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    2ft. Best moves? Can potentially do 2.

    A. Button to McCarthy/Pope (have Krul)
    B. Holgate/Stephens to Taylor
    C. Soyuncu to MU defender
    D. Ings to DCL

    1. nolard
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      A - get pope
      then B for Taylor or a Sheff U defender.

    2. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years

      Hi mate. Hope you & your family are well during these troubled times.

      A for Pope is a decent move. I also really like C with AWB.

      1. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        4 years, 2 days ago

        Just me and the wife. She's absolutely loving being at home to distract me from my work.
        Made me a plum, rhubarb, blood orange and star anise crumble the other day. Best crumble I've ever had 🙂

        Hope you are well too!

        1. RAFA THE GAFFA
          • 7 Years

          Excellent haha. Keep safe matey!

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Really good I agree, but where's mention of Lundstram?

  12. Ronnies
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    2 free transfers.

    Auba + Dendoncker > DCL + Bruno ?

    Thanks.

    1. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Do it over a few weeks. No real hurry.

    2. Soto Ayam
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Auba has an extra fixture than the others, no?

    3. Ole.

    Strange experience last night. I went out to get something out of my car and everyone gave me a round of applause.

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      I done some practice putting and when I holed one it sounded like I'd won the Open Gold Championship.

  15. The Polymath
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    Boris has the virus.

    1. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      He has enough on his plate without having to deal with that right now.

      Not the first MP to test positive so there are probably going to be more very soon.

    2. el polako
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      It would interesting to ask what he thinks about building herd immunity now ?

  16. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    Auba+Sarr TO KDB+DCL+.3?

    Helps out further moves aswell

  17. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 days ago

    So if the season ever starts again.......would you keep both Salah and Mane or lose one and which one ??

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Would keep Salah if leading or Mané if chasing

    2. Pinturicchio10
        4 years, 2 days ago

        I decided to lose one. Kept Mane.

      • HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 days ago

        Really depends on the balance of your team, and if you'd rather have another premium level player such as KdB, Auba, or Aguero instead of one of the Liverpool midfielders.

        I personally think they are two of the best value players in the game, guaranteed to start and fairly consistent with returns, those two plus KdB for me.

      • GreennRed
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 days ago

        Have Salah, will keep him until WC and maybe beyond depending on his and Mane form. I went a lot of gameweeks with TAA as my only Pool player. Neither as good value as De Bruyne or Bruno at the moment for me but if they win the league and then let rip might get both of them for the first time this season.

    3. JBG
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 days ago

      Hi Everyone! Hope everyone's doing well during these times...

      What should I do with this team?

      Pope-Button
      TAA-Lund-Maguire-Taylor-Cathcart
      Mane-Son-Martial-Saka-Dendo
      Auba-Ings-Jimenez

      2fts and 0.6 itb.

      Thanks for any feedback I get :).

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 days ago

        The only thing people should really be doing with there transfers is looking to remove players who probably wouldn't start in a fully fit first team.

        Such as Martin Kelly, or Oliver Giroud for example.

        or possibly target players with an extra game (Man City, Arsenal, SHU, and Villa have 10 games - I believe).
