Scout Notes

How De Bruyne looked on his Man City return against Arsenal

Arsenal 0-1 Manchester City

  • Goals: Raheem Sterling (£11.6m)
  • Assists: Riyad Mahrez (£8.1m)
  • Bonus: Fernandinho (£5.4m), Oleksandr Zinchenko (£5.5m) x2, Mahrez, Ruben Dias (£6.1m) x1

A fixture between two of the division’s meanest defences ended in a predictably low-scoring game.

Raheem Sterling (£11.6m) settled the contest after little more than a minute, nodding home Riyad Mahrez‘s (£8.1m) teasing cross from close range.

Pep Guardiola’s side secured their 15th clean sheet of the season, and their 11th shut-out in 13 matches that featured both Ruben Dias (£6.1m) and John Stones (£5.2m) at centre-back.

TALK ABOUT KEVIN

Ilkay Gundogan (£6.1m) made a swift return from a groin injury in Sunday’s match in north London, while Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m) was handed his first start in a month after his own recent lay-off.

Neither player could deliver an attacking return, although the pair almost combined for a City second when Gundogan made a hash of his teammate’s pinpoint through-ball.

Part of a fluid three in Pep Guardiola’s strikerless set-up, the pair took their turns along with Bernardo Silva (£7.4m) in operating as the spearhead of the City attack.

Many of us will already own Gundogan: his ownership stands at over 85% in the top 10k (a better gauge of active managers than the overall figure) and may increase further heading into Double Gameweek 26.

But De Bruyne sits in less than 1% of these squads and is something of a differential among active managers.

.

He looked the part at times on Sunday, supplying two superb key passes to Sterling and Gundogan before almost finding the back of the net with an audacious chip in the second half.

Both Gundogan and De Bruyne have found themselves in more advanced positions than usual this season and the former has adapted better: the German has converted 28.9% of his shots in 2020/21, with De Bruyne’s rate down at a poor 4.8%.

The Belgian can’t even begin to compete when it comes to value for money and it is more of a question over whether he can form a double-up with Gundogan in FPL squads going into the Double Gameweeks.

Still a tad rusty and rested by his manager after an hour at the Emirates, his final audition will come on Wednesday against Borussia Mönchengladbach.

He’ll have that game not only to prove his match-sharpness but to suggest he is a preferable premium option to the quietly consistent Sterling, who now has 13 attacking returns in his last 14 Premier League starts.

CANCELO CULTURE

“He’s due a haul” sums up Joao Cancelo‘s (£6.1m) season as a Fantasy asset.

One duly arrived in Gameweek 20 against West Bromwich Albion but the fact remains that this was one of just two Premier League matches this season in which the defender-turned-midfielder has delivered attacking returns.

The likes of Joel Matip (£5.4m) and Darnell Furlong (£4.5m) have exactly the same record as Cancelo in terms of goals (one) and assists (two), although the 12 clean sheets that the Portuguese full-back has banked are a bit of a sweetener.

There was yet another “nearly” moment at the Emirates, with the premium City defender tiptoeing his way into the Arsenal penalty box and ruining a superb feint on Pablo Mari (£4.4m) by prodding wide from 10 yards.

Another haul does seem inevitable at some point – but then so does the odd benching given City’s upcoming schedule, and that is the trade-off owners have to swallow.

SUB-PAR

Injury updates on Aguero and Antonio as De Bruyne makes return in West Ham draw

It was a third successive Premier League game as a non-playing substitute for Sergio Aguero (£10.3m), whose campaign has been hampered by a knee problem, a hamstring injury and even a positive coronavirus test.

The Argentine has little more than two hours of game-time to his name in the top flight this season; the fact that we are approaching successive Double Gameweeks for City without even considering him as a viable FPL option shows how much of a non-event his 2020/21 has been.

His playing return could be imminent, however, at least according to his manager:

I am looking forward to putting him in. We cannot forget he was a long time injured and you get rhythm when you play minutes.

But he deserves to play and I want it. I want to say keep working hard and your time is coming.

It’s about his physical condition – he was one year injured; he only played a few minutes. I want to be sure for him – for us as well – but for him.

ART LIES ELSEWHERE

European club competition returned last week and much of what we wrote about Tottenham Hotspur in another Gameweek 25 Scout Notes may also apply to their north London neighbours.

The Gunners are 11 points away from a top-four spot and their best bet for securing qualification to next year’s Champions League may be to win this year’s Europa League.

The deeper the Gunners go into that competition, and the longer they remain mid-table fodder, then the risks of rotation around Thursday nights on the continent will increase.

We saw the first glimpses of that at the weekend, with Mikel Arteta making five changes to the team that lined up both in Gameweek 25 and in midweek against Benfica – semi-popular budget midfielder Emile Smith Rowe (£4.3m) finally losing his spot after 10 successive league starts.

Kieran Tierney (£5.2m) was a welcome returnee on his comeback from injury and would be among the names to consider for the Gunners’ fixture swing in Gameweek 31, with he and left-sided partner-in-crime Bukayo Saka (£5.3m) again catching the eye going forward on Sunday.

But should Arteta’s troops still be involved in the Europa League when the tournament reaches the quarter-final stage, then the Gunners’ Premier League line-ups could be tricky to second-guess.

Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Leno; Bellerin, Holding (Luiz 82), Mari, Tierney; Elneny (Ceballos 86), Xhaka; Pepe (Smith-Rowe 73), Odegaard (Lacazette 73), Saka; Aubameyang.

Man City (4-3-3): Ederson; Cancelo, Stones, Dias, Zinchenko; Fernandinho, Silva, Gundogan; Mahrez, De Bruyne (Jesus 63′), Sterling.

    Hard week to decide captain.
    Bruno DCL salah gundo/sterling kane son

    All great options

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      It's a tricky one, no doubt.

    2. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Also thinking KDB as a diff cap. Will see what's what after UCL game

    3. The Mighty One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I think Salah is going to run riot this weekend. Cap him.

      I might pick up Kane this week and I will still captain Salah.

  2. FantasyHero

    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anything here you would do for a hit?
    Going to play BB

    Ederson (martinez)
    Shaw cancelo targett (dier lowton)
    Salah Bruno son gundo Maddy
    DCL Watkins (bam)

    1. Dirty Harry

      Nope, gtg.

    2. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Decent BB that, considering you haven't taken a hit.
      Maddy injury not a concern?

    3. shiraz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Maddy for barnes if you want a leicester player

  3. Zenith UK
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    RMWCT:

    Martinez
    Cancelo, Dias, Konsa
    Bruno, Son, Barnes, Gundo
    (K)ane, Vardy, DCL

    McGill, Struijk, Soucek, Cresswell

    1. Scratch
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Nice for this week though Salah-less but you could add a couple Soton players for their double in 27 and perhaps another Everton for their dgw, likely in 28.

      1. Zenith UK
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I just took him out to fund Vardy/Barnes!

  4. Dirty Harry
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anyone holding on to Ings?

    Bringing Kane in but surely keeping Bamford over Ings is the preferred option.

    1. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      likely to hold, will assess tomorrow
      any move would be for a hit. kane would be -8
      somewhat tempted by DCL but hesitant to own him for a 3rd time

    2. Pops15
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Have the funds to make an easy move from Ings to Kane but feels somewhat wrong cuz of his double in 27. In reality though it's one game plus 2 points vs city so I still think moving him on this week is fine.

  5. Ruinenlust
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Son or Barnes?

    Already have Kane

    1. Dirty Harry
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I reckon Barnes

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Barnes. Spread the love

  6. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Barnes just went up ugh!!

    1. Dirty Harry
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      FPLStatistics had him set to rise.

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I saw but firstly can't trust them these days and secondly I wasn't paying attention to the time ffs.

  7. De Gea is GOAT
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Hey guys. Do we know how long Ogbonna is out for? Would it be safe to go for Diop or Balbuena might be playing soon?

  8. Pukki Blinders
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Best combo from gw26 to 30?

    A. Soyuncu + Barnes
    B. Digne + Lookman/M.Pereira

  9. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Dallas Chilwell Grealish Ings
    To
    Pereira Aina Barnes Kane?

    -12

    BUT I'm bench boosting and will have 13 doubles plus Raph and Bamford

    Haven't had a hit in a little while!

    1. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I say worth a pop if you're chasing for sure.
      2 of the players out wont play so the double players you are bringing in should make up 8 of those 12 points as a minimum

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers fella!

        1. Boberella
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          (That's assuming Chilly is out of favour now of course, which seems to be the case)

  10. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    WC team

    Martinez
    Digne Shaw Cancelo
    Sterlo Gundo Barnes Bruno
    Vardy Kane DCL

    Sanchez Lookman Strujik Burn

    1. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      so staying away from Villa ? Remember they still have a game vs EVE to make up which will likely land on GW28 which includes newcastle. They also play in blank gw29.

      also no Maddison would make me a bit hesitant to double on LEI

      i prefer veltman over burn, and digne might be abit overpriced imo, surprised you didnt go Alonso in that spot

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I actually had Alonso in my team last weeks and sold on WC. Mostly because of fixtures and I reckon Chilwell gets at least one game during dgw.

        Fair shout on Villa, could downgrade Lookman and fund Targett

  11. Kim Jong Kün
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A. Dias + Salah
    B. Robertson + Sterling

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Not even close

      A

      1. Kim Jong Kün
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Sterlings been crushing Salah so that one isn’t close. The issue is I can’t have 4 city players (Cancelo + Gundo) and Liverpool’s matches coming up actually look decent defensively so I’m trying to find a good high-ceiling alternative at the back.

    2. Pops15
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Has to be A. Dont see any reason in having any defensive cover from Liverpool at the moment

  12. De Gea is GOAT
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Please RMWCT

    Marti
    Cancelo Rudiger Pereira

    DCL Kane Bamford

    Forster Raphinha Coufal Burn

    1. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years

      Love it apart from rudiger, think I’d go Targett over him

    2. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Where’s penandez??

    3. De Gea is GOAT
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I was thinking the exact same TS. Might have Targett for the doubles then switch to Rudi as CHE has nice fixtures afterwards. Pending KDB's performance mid week i think im willing to take a gamble on him for the doubles. Can easily switch back to Bruno if needed. Thoughts?

  13. Tsparkes10
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Justin, Grealish, Ings, Bamford to 3.9, Lookman, Kane, DCL worth a -8?

    Justin, Bamford to 3.9, DCL would be the -8 :/

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      WC gone?

      Those moves are probably not worth -8

      You can also do Ings to Dominic and Grealish to Barnes for free

    2. De Gea is GOAT
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I would have to agree with Holmes although no Kane is scary af

      1. Cruyff's Eleven
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I've gone Vardy.

  14. Auba Xhaka Laca Saka Laca
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    A or B?
    A. Bruno + Cancelo?

    Villa ban squad from playing FPL. I guess Bamford won’t be as vocal about captaining himself on TV interviews from now on 🙂

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Having himself as captain shouldn't be an issue. Having a captain in opposition team could be 😛

    2. RubeRx

    Best move here?

    A) Ings -> DCL

    C) Sterling & Ings -> Son & Kane (-4)

    Pope
    Cancelo, Targett, Tarkowski

    1. Soucek Coufal Ferguson >> Barnes Targett Shaw (-4) (play BB)
    2. Coufal Ings >> Targett Kane (TC?)
    3. Pope Soucek Ings >> Areola Barnes Kane (-4) (TC?)

    Thanks

    1. Stupendous
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      3 imo

    2. Teahupo'o
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      3

  20. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Would you start Mitchell (FUL/MUN) or Tarkowski (tot/LEI)?

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Tarko for goal threat

  21. fish&chips
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Ings -> DCL worth a -4?

    Ings with the double in 27 but can’t see more than 2 points at city

    1. Teahupo'o
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I would. Possibility of a dgw for DCL in 28 also.

      1. fish&chips
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Or I could just keep raphinia and do Antonio to DCL (plan was Raph -> Barnes). Would mean no Leicester cover for the double though

        1. Teahupo'o
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Could. Though, even beyond the double Leicester's fixtures look enticing.

          1. fish&chips
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            I know. Maybe it’s time to roll the dice on a -8. Double gameweek afterall

    2. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah I think it’s worth it

    3. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Have both, Ings always disappointing me but got for the double this week and 27. Hopefully he can stay fit

    4. fish&chips
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Thanks all

  22. Teahupo'o
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    As of now, best option out of these three?

    A) Dias Cancelo Son
    B) Stones Cancelo Vardy
    C) Stones Konsa KDB

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

      B for me but could go any way

      1. Teahupo'o
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A for me

    3. FantasyHero
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

  23. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Anybody else expect major rotation for City’s CL game? I expect below:

    Ederson
    Walker Laporte Stones Mendy/Zinchenko
    Bilva Rodri KDB
    Mahrez/Torres Jesus Foden

    1. Teahupo'o
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I hope so. Would certainly solidify defensive choices for dgw26.

    2. Clintymints
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah would expect something like that for sure, ideally get the job done early and get the subs on

  24. Pukki Blinders
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Antonio to Watkins for a -4?

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      On balance, yes.

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        What balance?

        1. The Knights Template
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Meaning it was a close calculus

    2. Overated Mou
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      im in the same situation but i dont think i will do it. not sure yet though
      no grealish for villa
      antonio has leeds next gw
      but i have fh for 29 though
      so it depends really

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Can see Antonio getting only 2 pts v City though... Watkins gets 2 games in 26, possible DGW28 and a game in 29 so seems safe

        1. Overated Mou
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          yeah i thought of that too
          do you think villa will do well without grealish though?
          antonio v city 2p
          leeds ars man utd
          i think he may get a goal there
          i havent decided myself mate
          mine is even more of a dilema since i will be bb this gw

          1. Pukki Blinders
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            BB makes it easy, I’m BBing this week too so want to get rid of both Coufal and Antonio. A SGW against City isn’t good enough for me

            1. Overated Mou
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years
              3 years, 1 month ago

              i see
              i have creswell and antonio lol
              will hold creswell since i bought him at 5.1
              but i am still debating whether
              antonio + 4 is better than watkins x2
              not just for this gw
              upcoming gw too though
              whu have leeds ars man utd. leaky def.
              watkins are grealish less.
              very hard to decide even till now. for me at least

                also
                i just realise that this bb chip is very frustating to have. so much pressure to rip your team off just for that one gw
                would love to get rid of it so i can focus more on the first xi
                i think sometimes people, like me, is getting carried away with this bb chip and in the end has that tunnel vision thing that those experts keep mentioning

                  Agreed, I’m starting to think I shouldn’t force a BB this week and just do it when the time arises before I WC in 31

                    yeah. i think i will wc either 30 or 31 too
                    this is my team atm btw

                    so when do you thin you will bb? im still debating whether there is another good gw to bb
                    coz normally i would have 4.0gk and one 4.0 bench fodder in my squad to max first 11

      Debatable. Villa without Grealish, are they all that? The DGW28 thing is a pipe-dream in my view, that game can easily go into GW37 where there is a free slot. And West Ham have a great GW27.

      It really depends who you could play instead of Antonio this week. If you have a Leeds attacker benched, just play them.

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Plan is to BB this week though, would be much easier to save BB for next week honestly but probably lower ceiling

        1. Ruth_NZ
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          When you calculate the BB you need to take into account all the costs - hits before and after and so on.

          If (as it sounds) you are doing GW29 with no FH then have a look at GW30 for the BB. Should work well.

          1. Pukki Blinders
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Just checked gw30 fixtures on the fixture planner and they look very good for a BB, didn’t think of leaving it that late but looks the way to go... cheers

        hmm good point re leeds attacker, mate
        what if you are doing bb this week
        will you still do antonio to watkins for -4?

    4. FantasyHero
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      For sure. I did it this gw

  25. luk46
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    what do you prioritise?

    A - Ings > DCL for a hit
    B - Brewster > Maja for a hit and bb Pope Bamford Dallas Coufal

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Ruth_NZ
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A. That bench isn't good enough for a BB. Try GW30.

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A & B

  26. shiraz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Should i take a -8

    Mitchell Grealish Antonio > Targett M.Pereira DCL

    And bb this

    Martinez
    Targett Cancelo Dias Coufal
    M.Pereira Salah Bruno Gundogan
    Kane DCL

    Pope, Dallas Raphinha Bamford

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Looks fine to me

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Maybe play Bamford/Raphinha and avoid Targett move

    2. Overated Mou
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      very similar to mine
      https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/23489554
      i would do
      mitchell - target
      greal - barnes
      thats my plan atm

    Will Gundogan's goal appeal be reduced now that KDB is back?
    Have put the triple captain armband on Gundo.
    But Gundo might just stay deep, which would allow KDB to orchestrate things up front.
    That is my only worry.

    1. Overated Mou
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      not from what i saw from arsenal match. he is stilll a good option imo mate

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      He was doing well when Kevin was fit, so I guess it shouldnt be an issue. What could be an issue is his gametime.

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Gundo isn’t worth even the C this week let alone TC.

      Likes of Bruno and DCL I favour more over the Pep roulette. Maximum Fixture congestion for city could be a problem

  28. Tsparkes10

    Is Kane essential without son??

    Tempted by Grealish, Ings to DCL, Barnes for free.. other option is Grealish, Ings to Lookman, Kane

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Think the former will score more. Nobody is essential

  29. Weeb Kakashi
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Pereira OR Castagne?? Need one who plays both in 26.

    1. Overated Mou
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      choose one who is more nailed. but i dont know which one is more nailed.
      may go for soy or evans for cs points

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Fullbacks get CS points too 😉

        1. Overated Mou
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          true mate
          but dont know whether they will play both matches

          1. Overated Mou
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            given that they just come back from injury

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Europa game will probably give some hints

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Surely. Castagne can play LB too so leaning towards him.

  30. Auba Xhaka Laca Saka Laca
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    A. DCL + Konsa
    B. Watkins + Digne or Pereira?

    A or B?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      A
