GoalScorer Challenge September 10

Fantasy Football Scout joining forces with GoalScorer Challenge

Fantasy Football Scout have teamed up with the popular GoalScorer Challenge competition this season.

We will be giving away a Premium Membership to the best manager every month to go with the game’s £500 top prize for the campaign’s ultimate winner.

If you have not played before, GoalScorer Challenge is a very simple, and FREE, game. Every week you pick one player from the Premier League who you think is most likely to score. The more goals that man racks up, the more points you do. But pick wisely, as you can only pick each player once per season.

There are three types of Gameweeks:

Premier League – most weekends there will be a full round of fixtures comprising games on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. These will all be included. If there is a full round of fixtures during midweek (for example over the Christmas period) these will be counted as a separate Gameweek.

International – during international breaks, you still have to pick a Premier League player. However, you get the points for any goals they score for their country. Only full internationals count, any underage matches are not included. International Gameweeks will span three days and for 2020/21 there are seven of these in total.

Cup – on FA Cup weekends, you are again limited to players playing for Premier League teams. The EFL Cup final will also be included as it will take place alongside a regular round of Premier League matches.

Each player will only ever play once in each Gameweek, the first game for which he is eligible. If, for example, a national team play twice over a weekend, the first match after the week’s deadline will be the applicable fixture. 

If your player does not play, whether it be due to injury, suspension or being left out, you have still used them up and cannot re-pick them for the duration of the season.

If your player’s game is postponed, you do not get to re-pick the player and any goals he scores in the rearranged fixture will not count.

The onus is on you to make sure your pick is eligible, particularly on international weeks where some games can kick off before the deadline.

        With Berge a doubt now, and Lundstram perhaps looking at starting, I'm tempted for a couple of weeks.

      I like Dunk, another 5m we may be understandably overlooking due to cheaper alternatives (often a false economy unless there's a 4.5 Soyuncu type)

      Rest is fine depending on your bench strategy

      Just requires a Lundstram alternative

          Than Dunk? You would think so, but being a bonus hog and goal threat can sometimes supersede being a cheaper link in a better backline

      My money's on Barnes although I lose like Maddison. I would have gone for Jota but with Neto, Silva and potentially Traore there's a lot of competition for that other attacking spot now.

      I'd take a risk on Mitchell week 1 and slot Taylor in over Lascelles I think

      Dubravaka is out and think what Allison out did to Liverpool and Hendo at SU for that matter. Newcastle defence is way dodgier than either of those and Dubravka even more key

      Soucek over Romeu for my money.

      I am an everton fan so Imay be biased. I expect an explosive game. Same can be said about everyother game this weekend. Too early in the season to park buses until you know what you have going forward.

      I expect both teams to score

    Please RMT

    McCarthy
    TAA - Davies - KWP
    Auba(c) - Salah - Son - Traore - Fraser
    Werner - Mitro

    Nyland - Ayling - Taylor - Davies

    Will Fraser definitely start for NEW?
    Will Davies at Spurs definitely play?

    They are my two main concerns but welcome any other thoughts/feedback

    Cheers

      He more than likely will be. But from the off? Newcastle play very differently to Bournemouth, it might take him some time to settle. Plus we don't even know if he starts GW1. Definitely want him at some point though

          True but he hasn't played any preseason has he? Whereas the others have. Guess it just depends how good he's looked in training and how fit he is etc, if he's good to go he should start
