Missing the dizzying highs, the terrifying lows and the creamy middles of Fantasy Premier League?
Scoutcasters Az and David certainly are, and they’ve decided to simulate the rest of the 2019/20 campaign on the popular computer game, Football Manager.
To add an extra dimension, each round of action will see David’s Scout Picks selections go up against a community team headed by Az.
They’ll be using FPL’s scoring system to determine who wins and there are more details on how this works in our introductory article here.
Gameweek 31 is next up for the pair and yesterday Az asked you to help him with some 50/50 selection calls.
Now the head of the community team wants you to pick his captain for his forthcoming head to head with David.
Gameweek 31 in our Football Manager simulation, as would have been the case in real life, is a Blank Gameweek, with five fixtures postponed because of the clash with the FA Cup quarter-finals – although the league matches that have survived are different in this virtual world.
The games going ahead are:
Burnley v Watford
Manchester United v Sheffield United
Wolves v Bournemouth
Leicester v Brighton
Norwich v Everton
AZ’S COMMUNITY TEAM
Based on the results of Wednesday’s polls, Az’s Gameweek 31 team is now as follows:
- Pope (WAT)
- Maguire (SHU)
- Doherty (BOU)
- Pereira (BHA)
- Mac Allister (lei)
- Maddison (BRI)
- Martial (SHU)
- Richarlison (nor)
- Jimenez (BOU)
- Wood (WAT)
- Rashford (SHU)
