Scout Notes

Why Wilder didn’t start Brewster as Mitrovic suffers nightmare outing

SHEFFIELD UNITED 1-1 FULHAM

  • Goals: Billy Sharp (£5.8m) | Ademola Lookman (£5.0m)
  • Assists: Jack Robinson (£4.4m)
  • Bonus: Lookman x3, Sharp x2, Chris Basham (£4.9m) x2

Sunday afternoon was one to forget for Aleksandar Mitrovic (£5.9m) and his FPL owners.

The Serbia striker missed a penalty after 57 minutes, skimming the crossbar with Aaron Ramsdale (£4.9m) well beaten.

The forward then managed to foul Jack Robinson (£4.4m) – who had earlier conceded a penalty – during a melee in the Fulham area.

That passage of play led to a Tom Cairney (£4.9m) chance on goal but after the VAR reviewed Mitrovic’s challenge on the Blades substitute, a spot-kick was awarded.

Billy Sharp (£5.8m) made no mistake with his penalty, firing home to earn the home side a point.

It went from bad to worse for Mitrovic in added time as the Fulham hitman headed wide twice from close range following deliveries by the impressive Ademola Lookman (£5.0m) and Cairney.

On the striker, Fulham boss Scott Parker commented:

It was painful for him but he has earned the right [to take the penalty]. Today wasn’t his day but he has scored and assisted a lot of goals. This is someone we owe a lot to. He will dust himself down and go again.

LOOKMAN PASSES EYE TEST

Having impressed from the bench in Gameweek 4, Lookman put in another eye-catching performance against Sheffield United.

It was his goal after 77 minutes that gave Fulham the lead. The winger, having received the ball from Cairney, lost it again but persevered to beat a couple of Sheffield United defenders before hammering an effort past Ramsdale from inside the box.

At just £5.0m, Lookman might be a player worthy of addition to FPL watchlists with Fulham’s fixture list looking decent until Gameweek 11.

BREWSTER LEFT TO SIMMER

Chris Wilder decided not to make immediate use of Rhian Brewster (£4.5m), with the former Liverpool striker named on the bench for Sunday’s bottom-of-the-table clash.

The budget forward entered the fray after 63 minutes and immediately made an impact by setting up a shooting opportunity for Enda Stevens (£5.4m).

The Irishman, who moved back to his regular wing-back berth after Robinson replaced the injured Max Lowe (£4.4m), attempted to return the ball to Brewster when he might have been better off having an effort on goal.

Apart from that moment, Brewster was unable to impact on proceedings from a Fantasy perspective but the profligacy of Oli McBurnie (£5.7m) could mean that the budget FPL option will make Chris Wilder’s XI in Gameweek 6.

On the new signing, the Blades boss said:

It was a big decision before whether to start him. I believed he only had 50 minutes in him so I thought the best way to introduce him would be off the bench, as we did, and get his first minutes as a Sheffield United player.

It’s difficult because younger players get caught up in between the under 23s and the first team and sometimes maybe don’t get up to speed as quickly as they would if they were part of the first team.

John Fleck (£5.8m) was due to be part of the starting team against Fulham but a back injury picked up on Scotland duty will sideline the midfielder for a period.

Wilder explained:

John was due to start today but unfortunately he has picked up an injury and is out for four to six weeks.

SPURNING CHANCES

McBurnie was the chief protagonist in a dominant first-half display from Sheffield United but not in the manner the Scotland international might have hoped.

Having already headed wide from a Chris Basham (£4.9m) cross after 10 minutes, the forward spurned a glorious opportunity as he nodded a Basham delivery at Alphonse Areola (£4.5m) from six yards out.

McBurnie then failed to get a decisive touch on a low Stevens cross, putting it across the Fulham goalkeeper rather than towards the net.

On his team’s display, Wilder commented:

Delighted to get a result, disappointed we didn’t come in at half time upping the game. We were a little bit more like our old selves in the first half and had control of the game.

But we were not like our old selves in the second half. First half us, they dominated the second half.

It is a bit of a battle at the moment, a bit of a grind but delighted to get something out of the game.

Along with McBurnie’s missed chances, the Blades also had a goal ruled out in the first half for offside after Fulham debutant Tosin Adarabioyo (£4.5m) turned a Sander Berge (£5.0m) cross into his own net.

Wilder’s opposite number Parker also recognised that it was the cliched ‘game of two halves’ at Bramall Lane and believes that Fulham are turning a corner in terms of performance, saying:

I thought in the second-half performance we were exceptional. In the first half, we came with a bit of plan, we needed to tinker things at half time and the players responded very well.

Second half I saw a dynamic team, a team that could create chances and I was pleased overall in that sense. Still plenty of learning and plenty of improvement to do. A young team with young players coming in and making their debuts. Overall pleased.

Playing against a very well-drilled side here and their formation can cause you problems. We tried to nullify their threat. On the counter-attacking side, I thought we looked deadly. Pleased with that but probably need to be a bit more clinical in these moments.

The team is going in the right direction, not just today. The last performance as well was very pleasing. From where we were in the first three games where we had our struggles we appear to be coming out of that and pushing in the right direction.


Sheffield United XI (3-5-2): Ramsdale; Stevens, Egan, Basham (Sharp 81′); Lowe (J Robinson 19′), Lundstram, Norwood, Berge, Baldock; McGoldrick (Brewster 63′), McBurnie.

Fulham XI (4-2-3-1): Areola; Robinson, Ream, Adarabioyo, Aina; Cairney, Anguissa; Lookman, Loftus-Cheek (Lemina 81′), Cavaleiro; Mitrovic.

          I agree.

      McCArthy & KDB -> Martinez & Son must be tempting

      1. The Head-Ake
        • 7 Years

        I'm tryna get Kane in too but looks like a -8 at least

    (bottomed post on last page - sorry!)

    This season has been beyond bizarre. And, I'm not just saying that because I'm doing cr@p. I did poorly last season too

    1. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Arrgh what happened to the rest of my post???

      Jimi, Barnes & Podence > Kane, J-Rod & Barkley

      Good moves yay or nay?

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        for one hit?

        1. thegaffer82
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          2 hits 🙁

          1. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            100% no imo. barkley not worth an extra hit. jimmy has a nice fixture too. i would do barnes to j rod only. also i wouldnt get barkley but mcginn but that's me 🙂

          2. Pegboy
            • 13 Years

            Definite no.

      Thanks for help on the last page.

      You guys are the best 🙂

  6. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    i know this sounds a bit mad but is getting zaha ahead of the likes of son or bruno as a replacement for kdb make sense in view of the fixture? thanks

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      It doesn't.
      Even Grealish would have made sense but ideally Son is the one to have

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

      No absolutely not

      Palace has a non penalty xG of 0.00 yesterday

    3. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Nope. Just get Son.

    4. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Not for me

      Son is essential at that price

    5. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No. Zaha doesn't have much goal threat outside of penalties.

      Palace are a poor attacking side who are averaging about 30-odd % possession and are among the worst for big chances, shots in the box etc....

    6. Party time
        3 years, 5 months ago

        No

      • Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        haha ok thanks guys 🙂

        i have kane already would you get bruno or son?

        could the arrival of bale potentially affect son's returns?

        1. Konstaapeli
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Still Son.

          1. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            cheers

        2. Pegboy
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Bale has zero affect on Son, either positive or negative IMO. I also still think Bale will be an impact sub for another month at least.

      • Pegboy
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I'm thinking of selling Zaha. Palace looked terrible.

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          ok thanks

    7. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔

      Play 1
      A) KWP
      B) Mitchell
      C) Justin

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

        Easy B if we think he starts

    8. Lovren an elevator
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      What position did Cancelo play for city at the weekend?

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Not sure but I think he was playing in midfield

        1. Lovren an elevator
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah this is how it looked to me, watching the match highlights. I currently have Walker. Will keep if he's nailed, but am monitoring his situation and Cancelo's

        2. farmerfat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          LWB

    9. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      How many extra points is needed for a successful FH?

      30 points?

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Anything more than 20 should be good enough. 30 definitely

        1. Pegboy
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Anything 20+

      2. Third Eye Vision
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Save your free hit for double game weeks or blank game weeks. You can easily get more than a 30 point advantage if played well. Doing it in a normal game week is a bit of a lottery.

    10. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Any changes here or gtg?
      Guaita
      Lamptey - Saiss - Digne
      Son - Salah - Zaha - (B)runo
      Kane - DCL - Wood

      Nyland, KWP, Ferguson, Elneny

      Not sure what to do with Wood, only 0.5 itb, might have to switch to only two up front as not many options to replace Wood with.

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Wood to Maupay/Watkins is viable, even Antonio will be an option soon.

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Yea was looking at Atonio, shame about his next two

          1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah also picked up a hamstring injury apparently but nothing serious hopefully.
            Wilson is another one for when fixtures turn.

    11. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      So I saved the FT and didn’t do Jime to Kane. Need some sort of vindication tonight.

    12. The Head-Ake
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Would you get both of Kane and Son if it meant hits?

      1. Konstaapeli
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Yes.

      2. Pegboy
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Depends on team, but yes in theory.

      3. Jordan.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        i had the choce last week and got son,its still a jose team and even at 3 up yesterday it was all whu they miss eriksen badly and kane cannot keep doing it all on his own so only one will suffice for me

      4. Third Eye Vision
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        My -8 for Son, Kane & Rodriguez definitely paid off this week. Just get them.

    13. WWW.
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Hey all,

      Is KDB price locked?

      Thinking of holding on to him, but if his price is going to plummet will obviously ship him out.

      Cheers!

      1. Jordan.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        hes not

    14. JasonG123
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Maupay or Watkins?

      1. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Maupay

      2. Pegboy
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Maupay, but not much in it.

      3. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Maupay for this week but Watkins over the next 4-5 fixtures

        1. JasonG123
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah Watkin’s fixtures look better after this week.

    15. Bubz
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I didn't see the game last night so no eye test for me...

      How did Grealish look?

      1. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Very lively. But a few places where his decision making was poor. Either needed to shoot earlier or play a cross/pass off before he got crowded out.

        1. Bubz
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Cheers, do we think hes on penos?

          1. Camzy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            No. I think it's Barkley actually.

            1. Bubz
              • 10 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              Oh god

      2. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Solid, he seems most dangerous Villa player with ball. He did some corners also, but they rotate a lot on corners.

        1. Bubz
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Cheers

    16. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Today is a big game for Wolves.Good football and a win.And 2 goals from Raul for a huge or rise.

      1. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Semedo with assist.

      2. drughi
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        1-0 leeds ayling only scorer would be perfect

    17. Pegboy
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Ryan (Forster)
      Lamptey Saiss Semedo (James Mitchell)
      Salah(c) Son Zaha Foden (Bissouma)
      Kane Jimi DCL

      1F £1.3m

      I'll wait and see on the Wolves boys tonight, but issues are probably James, Mitchell, Zaha (Palace looked woeful), Ryan, Foden and Jimi, in that order.

      a) Save FT. Probably sensible option, as team is decent for this week.
      b) James > Digne
      c) Zaha/Foden > Grealish/Hamez

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        A for now imo

      2. Dexters Laboratory
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        C) Looking at potentially buying Grealish/Hamez myself. We've the same defenders so happy to leave James to rot on the bench for one more GW

      3. Saint Tim
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        A

    18. TheDragon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Semedo

      Do you think he could become last seasons Doherty from an FPL perspective? Or less likely to get attacking returns?

      1. Bubz
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Nah don't think he has the killer instinct of Doherty. He will still get some attacking returns though

      2. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Prolly little less likely, but who knows we never saw him in this position, his role was different than in Barcelona, he should be more offensive here, i got him for this 3-4 easy next games then i decide what he can for future. Wolwes defense look good, but today we will find out more.

    19. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      why oh why did i get ryan in goals....

      any reason to be optimistic?

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        This week's fixture

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

        Don’t think so - they seem much much more attacking this year rather than focus on defence

        Add in the crazy start to the season from goals and it’s not great

        On the bright side he is only 4.5 and pretty much every keeper except Martinez is scoring 1 to 2 points a game 🙂

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          yep thats what i thought. cheers.

      3. Pegboy

        I share your pain. You've got to keep for the next 3 though, with WBA and BUR coming up, and the potential of save points against Spurs. I'll probably be shipping after that, depending on the state of the rest of my team.

      If KDB is out, who should I get ?

      A) Mane
      B) Sterling
      C) Bruno

      Currently have Salah and TAA. No City or Man Utd players.

      Thanks.

    21. Konstaapeli
      • 7 Years

      Finally a decent week. Jumped a bit over million places and still have Saiss & Jimi to go.

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        nice one 🙂

        1. Konstaapeli
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Cheers. Still horrible start but hopefully it's now turning.

      2. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Similar i had also huge boost from 650k to 110k have semedo today.

        1. Konstaapeli
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Nice. Although, if you were 650k you've had coouple of decent weeks already 😆

          I was 4.6M OR when the GW started.

      3. Pegboy
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Ditto. 3.8m > 2.5m, with Jimi, Saiss and Semedo to go.

        This season has been painful so far, but have to trust the process that by aiming for returns over the next 4-6 weeks and avoiding hits, it's possible to turn it around.

    22. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Is it get Kane in at any cost or ride out next 3 with only Son?

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I think you can hold off on Kane for this week possibly, can’t see Burnley getting destroyed at home. For free I would probably get him in, not for a hit though

      2. DannyDrinkVodka
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I’d have to take a -8 to get Kane in this week....surely not worth it

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          I doubt you would even captain him either right

          1. DannyDrinkVodka
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            I definitely would if I took a -8 for him!

      3. Konstaapeli
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        It is for me. But luckily I have the funds to swap Jimi to Kane for FT

    23. Strchld
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      If Wolves looks terrible today, Jimenez to Kane for free easy decision, right?

      1. Bubz
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I wouldn't want to sel Jimenez before NEW at home tbh just because Newcastle are so bad

      2. thegaffer82
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I'm probably going to do it reagrdless of what happens tonight. But, admittedly, it will make the decision a lot easier if Jimi blanks again.

        Kane just looks out of this world at the moment and I'd rather have him over Son to be honest... but having both is even better

    24. Jack Burton
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Hi all just a quick one Salah or Mane the extra cash left over I will keep to do Rashford to Bruno when Martial is back thanks in advance

      1. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Salah is the man, would try to find some other way of getting money for other players.

        1. Jack Burton
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah I think your right cheers

    25. The Head-Ake
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Sorry for the spam but is this worth it:

      Davis + Mahrez + TAA + KDB to Kane + Foden + Keane + Son (-8)?

      1. The Head-Ake
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Would gimme this

        McCarthy
        Lamptey | (TAA-) Keane | Walker-Peters
        (Mahrez -) Son | Salah | Havertz | (KDB -) Foden
        Werner | DCL | Kane

        Martin | Bissouma | Mitchell | Justin

        1. fantasyfog
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          I would love that team

    26. Dexters Laboratory
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A) Havertz or Pulisic to Grealish or JRod
      B) Save

      1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        B

      2. Saint Tim
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        B

      3. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        B for me also, those guys are roullete, all pretty similar.

      4. thegaffer82
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        So you have both?

        Yeah, I'd get rid of one of the Chelsea lads. Probably Pulisic as he's playing on the right and looked less threatening than usual.

        Puli > J-Rod is a nice transfer

        1. Dexters Laboratory
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah I've both. Had a feeling Chelsea would Haul against Southamptons high def line.. just didn't think it'd be Werner with the Brace XD

    27. ShaunGoater123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      when are people planning on playing their wildcard? I know the age old mantra of "when your team needs it" but are there any specific weeks people have their eyes on for a fixture swing?

      1. Konstaapeli
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Luckily, I don't have to worry about that anymore.

    28. Saint Tim
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Currently have the below, 2 FTs and £1.1m ITB.

      Ryan
      TAA, KWP, Chilwell
      Salah (C), Bruno, Rodríguez, Podence
      Jimi (VC), Werner, Mitro
      Subs: Steer, Bissouma, Justin, Mitchell

      I know there's probably a lot I need to change (!) but thoughts on TAA + Podence -> Targett + Son please?

      1. Zrinkec
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Sounds good. Villa defensive fixtures looks pretty good for some time.

    29. All For One
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Mccarthy
      Taa, Saiss, Justin
      Salah, Zaha, Kdb, Bissouma, Mahrez
      Ings, Jimenez

      1FT

      -4 Kdb>Son, Jimenez>Kane

      Will this team be enough without Dcl?

      1. Saint Tim
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        do it, looks good

        1. All For One
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Just worried how I would get dcl without taking -8

      2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I would only take the hit if KDB is confirmed out

        1. All For One
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Other option I have is Kdb>Son and following gw Jimenez> Dcl.

          Yeh should hear some news on Wednesday about Kdb injury.
