Scout Squad

The Scout Squad picks for FPL Gameweek 1

The start of the 2020/21 campaign is just days away so the Scout Squad panel reconvenes to champion the standout Fantasy Premier League assets for the first Gameweek of the season.

For the uninitiated, these picks always take the format of a ‘Free Hit’ for the very next Gameweek.

Fantasy Football Scout editor David, deputy editor Neale, video content manager Andy and Pro Pundit Tom will each propose an 18-man squad of players for the approaching Gameweek and explain their notable inclusions/omissions below.

The 72 nominations listed will then be narrowed down to a squad of 15 (with the starting XI not exceeding a total cost of £83m) for the weekly Scout Picks selection ahead of Saturday’s deadline at 11:00 BST.

There are requirements for at least one goalkeeper costing £5.0m or less, at least one sub-£5.0m defender, at least one midfielder listed at £6.5m or below and at least one forward priced at £7.5m or lower.

Each panelist is restricted to no more than three players from the same team, as is the case in FPL.

We will again be adding a captaincy to the Scout Picks, with details of that revealed on Sunday.

DAVID SAID…

The inclusion of Trent Alexander-ArnoldPierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Mohamed Salah largely speak for themselves so I will dedicate a bit more time to some of my other selections.

Crystal Palace were the lowest scorers in home matches last season, while only Norwich found the net fewer times than the Eagles during Project Restart, making Alex McCarthy my preferred goalkeeper for Gameweek 1. Mat Ryan has some value going forward and should make plenty of saves at Chelsea, hence why he’s my second choice.

I’m expecting Matt Doherty to go straight into the Spurs team for their meeting with Everton and, judging by his attacking mentality at Wolves, I’m expecting big things for him in north London. Jose Mourinho has improved the Spurs defence while Everton struggled for goals during Project Restart.

James Justin looks nailed-on to start against West Bromwich Albion on Sunday afternoon and offers potential at both ends of the pitch.

Likewise, Rob Holding also faces newly promoted opposition in Fulham, while Arsenal’s defence continues to improve under Mikel Arteta.

I have my concerns about the long-term viability of Tyrick Mitchell, and Palace’s injury-hit defence fared particularly poorly during Project Restart, but he seems the most likely of the £4.0m defenders to actually start in Blank Gameweek 1.

Kai Havertz and Timo Werner are my chosen options from the Chelsea attack, which looks rather promising for the new campaign.

I have also included Jarrod Bowen, as I am sure West Ham will get a good result against Newcastle. I wanted to include Tomas Soucek and/or Michail Antonio but doubts of the two players’ chances of Gameweek 1 involvement put me off at the last moment.

I am expecting big things from Harry Kane this season, based on the way he finished last season. We all agree Spurs have nice fixtures to start 2020/21 and it was their centre-forward who registered more touches in the box, shots there and attempts on target than any team-mate during Project Restart.

On the hunt for some value in attack I have chosen Che Adams. During the final three matches of last season, he outscored Danny Ings, registering superior figures for minutes per shot, minutes per big chance and minutes per shot on target than his colleague across the whole of Project Restart.

NEALE SAID…

The pre-season eye test, if that is worth anything, has shunted a few names down the pecking order or out of my 18-man Scout Squad altogether.

Harry Kane appeared sluggish for England after his period of self-isolation, Michail Antonio lacked sharpness for West Ham in their final warm-up match against Bournemouth, and Mohamed Salah has looked well below-par for Liverpool in their pre-Gameweek 1 kickabouts.

Will that count for anything when the competitive action gets underway on Saturday? Maybe, maybe not. Will my lily-livered self have the nerve to overlook the highly owned Salah in favour of Sadio Mane, as I have done in my selection above? Almost certainly not.

Gameweek 1 squads are a unique affair as there is perhaps more gut instinct going on than at any other time of the season.

We don’t know if new signings will bed in straight away, whether the end-of-season form from the previous campaign counts towards anything and, as discussed, whether pre-season displays have any bearing on what follows.

Timo Werner and Kai Havertz are two such “gut” picks. Their Bundesliga stats are impressive but there is the nagging doubt over whether Frank Lampard can seamlessly assimilate such talented attackers into what was one of the most creative teams of last season: only the top two carved out more big chances than the Blues in 2019/20 but there often wasn’t anyone reliable on the end of these gilt-edged opportunities.

Had we had a full complement of fixtures and the premium assets from both Manchester clubs playing this weekend, the likelihood is that I would have gone with tried and tested over the Premier League rookies.

Matt Doherty would be my ideal route into the Spurs defence ahead of their meeting with Everton but I am a tad concerned that he has not kicked a ball for the Lilywhites since his move south, so, having not yet heard from Jose Mourinho at the time of writing, I’ll stick with the goalkeeper with the best save percentage and expected goals prevented total in the Premier League last season: Hugo Lloris.

Obvious picks abound elsewhere but the Wilfried Zaha selection probably requires explanation.

Palace aren’t renowned for their goalscoring exploits but we have seen Roy Hodgson adopting a more attacking 4-4-2 in pre-season, with Zaha deployed “out of position” in a two-man attack.

The Ivorian found the back of the net on three occasions in the Eagles’ friendlies (which were admittedly against sub-standard opposition) and the capture of Eberechi Eze should add a bit more potency to what was a limp attack.

It’s also easy to forget that Zaha averaged over 18 attacking returns per season in the three campaigns before 2019/20.

I think Allan Saint-Maximin is possibly being oversold in the Fantasy community but, given West Ham’s continued struggles at full-back (look no further than the 5-3 defeat at Bournemouth last Saturday), I think he could still make hay this weekend.

While I’ve highlighted the pre-season woes of Kane et al, Eddie Nketiah is on a goalscoring streak after a successful international break.

He’s a rotation risk in the medium term but he seems to have curried favour with Mikel Arteta, starting in the Community Shield, so he may well get the nod at Craven Cottage against a Fulham defence with much to prove.

Finally, going back to Mane: he averaged 6.9 points per start in FPL last season compared to Salah’s 7.0, so there is little splitting the pair.

TOM SAID…

Clean sheets look quite hard to call this week.

Even Liverpool’s home tie against Leeds United is far from straightforward, but that being said, I’m more than happy to select both Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson due to their attacking threat.

I’m also backing Wolverhampton Wanderers defence, via Rui Patrício and Romain Saïss. Despite heading into the new campaign without either of last terms first-choice wing-backs, I still think a shutout could be on the cards, bearing in mind Sheffield United took the fewest shots in the division last time round.

They’re joined by Hugo Lloris, Alex McCarthy, Reece James and James Justin at the back.

Further forward, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Mohamed Salah are my heavy hitters of choice, while I’m also backing Chelsea’s new arrivals.

Brighton and Hove Albion shipped 11 goals in three home games against Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United during Project Restart, while in Kai Havertz and Timo Werner, Chelsea have landed two of Europe’s hottest prospects whose Bundesliga numbers are hugely encouraging. You get the feeling both could explode, and make a mockery of their respective price tags.

I’ve also doubled up on Southampton and West Ham United’s attacks.

Saints’ away form was only bettered by Liverpool and Man City last season, while only the Manchester clubs collected more points during Project Restart. They’re up against a Crystal Palace side who have won just four games all year, which bodes well for James Ward-Prowse, who may be back on penalties, and Che Adams, who looked lively at the end of last season and bagged three goals in the final two Gameweeks.

At the Hammers, I’ve opted for Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio.

Newcastle United massively overperformed their metrics last season, and were really poor at defending set-pieces. I think Bowen, who will likely be on corners, could profit from those weaknesses, and in Antonio, they possess a striker who posted some ridiculously good numbers following the restart, and should keep his centre-forward spot given his performances.

The forward list is completed by Jamie Vardy and Harry Kane, who take on newly promoted West Bromwich Albion and Everton respectively.

ANDY SAID…

I think there are lots of reasons to be excited about Chelsea this season, especially if they buy a new goalkeeper. They were the fifth-best defence last season in terms of expected goals conceded (xGC) and with Cesar Azpilicueta not missing many minutes in recent seasons, there’s nothing to suggest that will stop now.

Although Michail Antonio’s sample of games is a bit smaller than most (only 1,767 minutes played last season), it’s difficult to look past his outrageous stats. Within players to play at least 1,000 minutes, Antonio was top for expected goals (xG) per 90 minutes for all midfielders last year at 0.64. In comparison, Raheem Sterling was 0.62 and Mohamed Salah 0.58.

When FPL first launched, Willy Boly was someone I wanted to avoid. It didn’t feel right backing him at £5.5m when you could get Romain Saïss (£5.0m) and Rúben Vinagre (£4.5m) for less. Fast forward a few weeks and there’s a little bit too much transfer speculation around Wolves for my liking. At £5.5m you at least get a little attacking threat and a very much nailed-on player against one of the worst attacks in the league last season.

There are rumours that Christian Pulisic might be available for Gameweek 1. Chelsea were only second to Manchester City last season for xG and when you think about the players they’ve added to their squad, there’s potential for big numbers again this year. It’s a risk starting with him, in case Lampard decides to bed him in slowly. At 0.59 expected goal involvements (xGI) per 90 minutes last season, he’s someone I want in my team sooner rather than later. No midfielder priced £8.5m or less bettered that last year outside of Riyad Mahrez.

James Justin provides a lot of upsides, but only potentially for a short space of time. We know that he’s only starting because of the injury to Ricardo Pereira, but for a Gameweek 1 punt against a newly promoted side, there aren’t many better options for the price. My only concern would be Jonny Evans missing out through injury but Leicester may still have enough for both attacking and defensive returns for the £4.5m full-back.

    Will Havertz start what you think? He could play on the right wing

    1. Gingerman
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Really its anyone's guess

      1. Gingerman
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Go with your gut

  2. Big boy Bowen
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    No Auba but damn does this team look good!

    McCarthy
    TAA | VVD | Doherty
    Salah | Son | Greenwood | ASM | Soucek
    Kane | Werner

    Steer | Mitchell | Buur | Davis

    Thoughts?

    1. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      But feels like I’ve got all the players who feel good value/underpriced.

      Salah and Kane rotate for captaincy, could be tricky to get City in however

      1. jason_ni
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Only thing i'm not a fan of is double spurs!

        But looks good generally, lack of bench could hurt you if we keep getting random players having to self isolate.

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          True, and look again it’s triple Spurs!

          1. jason_ni
            • 8 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            Lol - i keep forgetting doherty is spurs man now!

        2. jason_ni
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Also, for me, Martial is probably one of best value players in the game - so I'd have him over Son, and gives you another bench player 4.5 mid, who gets minutes.

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Can’t have them all but every chance Aubameyang is the highest scorer in the game this year

      1. Big boy Bowen
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Yes, every chance if I go with this my transfer in GW2 is Salah to Auba!

        I love how this feels like it has a strong def, mid and str

        1. Big boy Bowen
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          With some decent price points covered throughout too, 2x 4.0 defs not ideal however

          1. TheDragon
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            I’m not sold on Doherty at 6.0 and is Greenwood really the United you want particularly with the Sancho deal still alive.

            And then it’s sort of Kane vs Auba.

            Agree every single one of your 11 look decent though (which is more than I can say for mine!)

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I've got more Spurs than you 😉 .. Good luck!

      1. jason_ni
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        have doherty, plus 3 other spurs in your team before he moved??? if so you've not made a transfer since he moved either!

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Yep. Giving it a go, for the fun of it 🙂

  3. adstomko
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Minamino worth a punt as a late goalscorer?

    1. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Good preseason but unless they play 4-2-3-1, I can't see him starting and he could get subbed in the last 10 minutes so very likely 1 pointer.

  4. Bubz
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Lets say Soucek is nailed on to start GW1

    Would you prefer him to Saint Maximin?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Going with ASM

    2. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Prob rather have ASM if they were both starting.

    3. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Tough, long term yes, short term probably no

    4. Heskey Time
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      In the same boat. Trying to decide between soucek and Wilson 343 or asm and a 6 mil striker/midfielder 343 or 352 respectively

    5. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I'd prefer him over Saint Maximin even if they were same price. Not just based on West Ham stats but also based on stats in their former clubs. While Saint Maximin is a very important player for the club, he gets limited goal involvement.

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        That's not true.

        ASM had 33% goal involvement vs Soucek 21% since restart.

        1. Klaren
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          I didn't say that ASM had less goal involvement post restart. In the long term, he had low goal involvement at both Newcastle and Nice.

          Post-restart is a very limited sample size.

          1. Camzy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 6 months ago

            A bit unfair on ASM. 33% goal involvement is quite high. Before that, he wasn't fit and playing so hard to say.

    6. Red Red Robins
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Soucek, cheap, good bench player who could pick up random points in a good attacking West Ham team - obviously he'll never ever, ever ever get clean sheet bonus

  5. jason_ni
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Nketiah over Mitrovic for the 6.0 spot?

    He is the preferred option to Laca right??

    1. Pedram
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Laca will start

  6. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone considering cheap options from Soton like Armstrong or Adams?

    1. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Currently on both Ings & Adams. If I go with that, olan is to save 0.5 and Ings to Martial GW2

  7. CrouchDown
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    How does this look guys? WC in GW2

    Ryan

    TAA Bellerin Ward

    Auba Salah Diangana Saka Zaha

    Kane Werner

    Subs: 4.0, 4.5, 4.0, 4.0

    1. CrouchDown
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I could maybe swap Diangana for ASM

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I'd triple Pool and have Ings + 2M over Kane

      1. CrouchDown
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers mate. How would you use the 2M?

        1. _figu
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 6 months ago

          Zaha to Havertz/Son is an option. I'd also swap Ryan to Soton goalie. If Havertz, Ramsdale is an option too.

  8. mr messi
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    A or B? Essentially Son or Ings?

    A
    Son Havertz Aubameyang Salah Soucek
    Werner Mitro 4.5

    B
    Bissouma Havertz Aubameyang Salah Soucek
    Werner Mitro Ings

  9. Andrew
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Is a midfield 4 of Salah Auba Son ASM the most template?

    1. jomikijiq
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      yes

    2. stxrty
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Pretty much.

    3. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Salah/Auba prb most templatey.. then choice of others..

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Yep..sometimes Havertz or Greenwood over Son/Alli

  10. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone with Saka ahead of Auba?

    1. jason_ni
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Half a plan to move saka in for auba after maybe moving him to Sterling.

      But gut feeling is saying Auba could be the top points scorer this season.

    2. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      No one can possibly have Saka over Auba as a preference

    What is the gut feeling on Vinagre. i dont see him in many teams now?

    1. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Gotta admit I'm waffling, I took him out yesterday but might reverse that call depending on what is said in the presser.

      If I go with Saiss instead, then I have to start Mitchell or Bissouma in GW1 which isn't good.

  13. AD105
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Adams or Wilson for GW1 only?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      W

  14. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    A or B?

    A)
    Ramsdale
    TAA - Saiss - KWP
    Auba - Son - Hernandez - Pereira
    Vardy - Werner - Ings

    Steer - Ayling - Bissouma - Ferguson

    B)
    Ramsdale
    TAA - Justin - KWP - Buur
    Salah - Auba - Son - Havertz
    Werner - Adams

    Steer - Ayling - Bissouma - Brewster

    A’s a little risky going Salah-less, but B’s more risky with lack of squad depth.

    1. AD105
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      That midfield for B is extremely tasty, but possibly slightly too expensive - might be worth downgrading Son to Alli just to free up some extra funds

    2. FPL Theorist
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      B looks good

  15. Milk, 1 Šuker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    How likely a Jota start?

  16. OneDennisBergkamp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    Whats all this Che Adams loving going on? Is he nailed?

    1. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Goals in the last few games last season. He is the more likely to start than Obafemi and Long but not nailed.

  19. Pep Roulette

    ASM at 5.5 looks gold with the arrival of Fraser, Lewis & Wilson and good run of fixtures!

    1. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      Not sure about Lewis, he has 0 attacking threat.

    2. rnrd
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I actually see Fraser as a threat to ASM altoug I thik ASM is safe for a month as Fraser might be rusty.
      But they play the same position and ASM gametime management has been an issue last year

    3. Heskey Time
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I feel like Wilson will be the best option with all that creativity behind him

  20. AleksaMaster
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 6 months ago

    1) DCL + Son
    2) Mitrovic + Bruno

    What should I choose?

    Dont know how to fit Bruno from GW 1. Are you planning to use WC in GW 2 or what?

    I would like to see some teams with Bruno

    I think it's quite important to make sure the sell of your main FW could generate an upgrade to a 8.5 mid because the pool of 6.0 / 6.5 striker and even 4.5 if Brewster goes on loan makes the option of two 6,0 - 6,5 frontmen quite interesting

    I wouldn't be too bothered by a Mitrovic / Watkins or Wilson / Bats forward line if this enables a 12 / 12 / 8.5 / 8.5 mid to be honest and the more I think about it the more I'm preparing to it

      This is where I have ended up. Starting no. 9 for 3 lesser teams up top but 4 big hitters in midfield and Trent. So few options up top compared to midfield. Werner has looked average when I've watched him and may take time to adjust so happy to see that play out

    How does this look folks? Also, who would you captain, Salah or Auba?

    McCarthy
    TAA | Boly | Dier | Justin
    Salah | Auba | Havertz | Rodriguez
    Werner | Wilson

    Steer | Bissouma | Mitchell | Brewster

      Probably Salah GW1, Auba GW2 (both good choices though), would maybe downgrade Boly to Saiss to free up an extra 0.5, JRod pick isn’t for me but could work, looks very solid on the whole though

    Who is your week 1 punt?
    Im stuck between Son, Alli, Bowen, Barnes. All 4 could easily get 1 or 2pts

      Alli Dier.. below 3%

    So I am completely unfamiliar with the Leeds squad.

    Is Douglas nailed?

    My 1st draft. How this looks fellas?

    Ramsdale
    TAA-Mitchell-Doherty-Justin
    Salah(C)-Auba-ASM-Armstrong
    Kane-Mitrovic

    Steer-Brewster-Greenwood-Maguire

    Crunch time...

    A) Vinagre + Soucek
    B) Saiss + Bissouma

    Midfield is an 8th attacker that doesn't have to play. Vinagre can also become KWP.

    1. The Mighty Hippo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      I'd say B

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      B with Dallas to cover him in GW2

    3. Red Red Robins
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 6 months ago

      B

    4. nico05

      B

    I put James Rodriguez into my team and now I just cant take him out. I just don't know how to balance the team now.

    1. Niho992
      • 5 Years

      Just realized he is 7.5. OMG.

      He could be great value and Everton have great fixtures.
