Scout Notes

Brentford’s solid defence could make life tough for Salah in Gameweek 6

We continue our in-depth analysis of the weekend’s top-flight fixtures by looking at the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) talking points from Wolverhampton Wanderers v Brentford.

WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS 0-2 BRENTFORD

  • Goals: Ivan Toney (£6.3m), Bryan Mbeumo (£5.5m)
  • Assists: Toney
  • Bonus: Toney x3, Ethan Pinnock (£4.6m) x2, Kristoffer Ajer (£4.5m) x1

BEES STRONG AT THE BACK

Brentford made it three clean sheets in five Premier League games in their 2-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday, a tally that would have been even greater had they not shipped an out-of-the-blue 89th-minute winner to Brighton in Gameweek 4.

Wolves didn’t manage a single shot on target at Molineux this weekend and had only four efforts from inside the Bees’ box, with a Raul Jimenez (£7.5m) header wide and Adama Traore (£6.0m) shot that hit the bar as close as the hosts came to scoring – even then, the close proximity of Brentford defenders partly influenced the outcomes of the goal attempts.

It’s Liverpool up next for the west London outfit and while the Season Ticker of your choice may read blue/green for Mohamed Salah (£12.6m) and co, the Bees’ defensive stats are worth a look:

MetricRank v other Premier League clubs
Shots conceded=3rd
Shots in the box conceded4th
Shots on target conceded=2nd
Efforts from set plays conceded4th
Big chances conceded=3rd
Expected goals (xG) conceded2nd
Goals conceded4th
Clean sheets=4th

One obvious thing to point out at this stage is the calibre of opposition: Brentford haven’t yet faced any of last season’s top seven.

A free-scoring Liverpool attack will be the real acid test of Thomas Frank’s backline but similarly, this could be a trickier afternoon for the Reds than the fixture difficulty rating-makers would have us believe.

“[Pontus Jansson] is good, he’s fine, no problem. [Rico Henry] had a minor issue with his ankle plus he was also on a yellow card and he played against Traore.” – Thomas Frank on the withdrawals of two of his defenders

MBEUMO AND TONEY

“Promise, not points” was the takeaway from last week’s write-up on Ivan Toney (£6.3m) and Bryan Mbeumo (£5.5m) after the defeat to Brighton.

The pair’s positive link-up play was finally rewarded with goals on Saturday, with Toney extending his excellent penalty-taking record (18 scored from 19 attempts) before teeing up his strike partner to score from close range.

Toney found the net on a further two occasions at Molineux but was denied by first an offside flag and then a VAR call on a handball.

“That was a 10/10 performance. What an assist, by the way, to Bryan [Mbeumo]. Again, we saw Bryan and Ivan’s relationship. It’s a little bit Yorke and Cole.” – Thomas Frank on Ivan Toney

Now’s not really the time to buy either player in FPL going by the next four matches (see above), especially if Frank asks Toney to play a bit deeper to connect play – as he did in Gameweek 1 – in the tougher upcoming games.

But a more appealing set of fixtures follows from Gameweeks 10-16, whereby the Bees jump to second in our Season Ticker.

WOLVES’ OFF DAY

Wolves were hugely disappointing and delivered their worst display under Bruno Lage to date, with FPL’s most-bought defender of Gameweek 5, Marcal (£4.6m), particularly woeful.

From a defensive point of view, we should, from an owners’ perspective, not overreact and hopefully just chalk this up as an off-day, as the Wolves backline had been decent up until this point. The fixtures ahead remain appealing, too.

But the struggles up top are a recurring theme and Lage’s troops are bottom of the division for shots-to-goals conversion rate, having netted only one of their 82 attempts in 2021/22.

Lage even substituted three of his five starting defenders and switched to a 4-2-3-1 on Saturday to chase the game, ultimately to no avail.

“It’s a concern, but not just from this year, from the past the team didn’t score too many goals. They have maybe one or two per game, so the average of the goals is not big, so we’re trying to play a different way, trying to create more chances to raise that average.

“But in the end, when you look back and see we created a lot of chances, to only have three points and two goals is a little bit frustrating for us.” – Bruno Lage on the struggle for goals

Wolves XI: Sa, Semedo (Silva 81), Kilman, Coady, Saiss (Hwang 46), Marcal (Podence 72), Neves, Moutinho, Trincao, Traore, Jimenez.

Brentford XI: Raya, Ajer, Jansson (Zanka 81), Pinnock, Canos (Onyeka 68), Baptiste, Norgaard, Janelt, Henry (Roerslev 75), Mbeumo, Toney.

    Am I crazy for considering Calum Wilson?
    Do we expect him to play?
    5.5£

    1. Harry the Hack
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      no he's still injured

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Wilson is not £5.5

      1. dekikide

        I'm ret##rded.. I ment Joshua King 😀 ..

        1. Pep's Money Laundry
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Looking at at his minutes, I'm not sure how nailed on King is but if he was nailed on then he could be a decent option

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

      not crazy at all, i've been considering him myself, he's a proven Prem goalscorer and is an absolute bargain if he can nail a place and stay injury free

      Too late ha ha

  3. sandman58

    A) Torres & Marcal
    B) Sarr & Rudiger
    Have A but can do B for free
    Yes or no?

    Brentford's defensive stats are good but have they really been tested yet?

    GW1: Arsenal had a lot of players out. A stronger version of this team only put one past Norwich
    GW2: Palace a lot of new players getting used to each other, Eduardo hadn't joined.
    GW3: Conceded one to Villa who had really poor attacking stats at the time.
    GW4: Unlucky late goal conceded but Brighton don't exactly have clinical forwards.
    GW5: Wolves have only score once from open play all season.

    Salah (C) still looks good to me.

    1. Skonto Rigga
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Yep, agreed Morph. The real work starts over the next four. Early days but could have a Sheff Utd-type season ahead of us, with a decent number of clean sheets against the also-rans and then a case of making life tough for the elite in plucky defeats.

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Top post!

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

      They aren’t tested yet, but they aren’t leeds or Newcastle either. They prefer defending rather going forward

  5. Dr. Rog
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Lineup questions:

    A) Start DDG (AVL) or Foster (NEW)
    B) Start Livemental (WOL) or Tierney (TOT) or Christensen (MCI) and bench order for the other 2

    1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      DDG
      Livra. Tierney. Christensen.

  6. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Is Foster the number 1 for Watford?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Until he isn't... if on a WC he is the pick of the 4.0s but would be careful with having him as your own playing GK unless you have Bachmann on the bench

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      If Watford are still in the carabao cup, that might help answer your question

    3. sandman58
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Begovic is in for a few weeks at Everton

  7. Kane Train
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 6 months ago

    Which one

    A) Jota
    B) Sarr

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      B

      Beginning to think Jota just isn't a very good finisher given his stats have never quite materialised into significant hauls.

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Also, Firmino back soon

      2. Goonsquad245
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        He’s scored braces and hat tricks before. Stats materialise into returns in the long term.

        1. Harry the Hack
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Traore says hi.

          1. Goonsquad245
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Does he? 7 goals from 8ish expected at wolves. Not enough to draw any sort of conclusions.

            1. Harry the Hack
              • 14 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Traore does not have 7 goals. Expected goals are fairly general in just telling you positioning. They are far better at telling you who are good finishers and who are not, a far more important stat

              1. Goonsquad245
                • 7 Years
                2 years, 6 months ago

                Traore has 7 goals over his wolves career.

                I’d argue that goals to expected goals ratio (over a good sample) are *perfect* for defining finishing skill.

                1. Harry the Hack
                  • 14 Years
                  2 years, 6 months ago

                  yes goals to expected goals is good in that respect. Sorry, I thought the discussion was about expected goals in isolation.
                  This must be the first post I've seen coming remotely close to defending Traore's finishing

                  1. Goonsquad245
                    • 7 Years
                    2 years, 6 months ago

                    There’s lots of reasons to believe traore is a below average finisher. That wouldn’t stop me from buying him if he had mind-blowing stats

                    1. Harry the Hack
                      • 14 Years
                      2 years, 6 months ago

                      Fair enough. I guess that one is personal preference. I'd rather than guy that gets 1 chance a game but bangs it 90% of the time rather than the guy who creates 6 chances for himself but can't hit a barn door.

      101.4. Usually would expect to be about 102.5 by now.
      Its been a slow start because Lukaku & Ronaldo sucked up a lot of transfers in and were locked at the time.

      Probable WC soonish-7/8.

      1. Save the ft for GW 7.
      2. Greenwood-> Sarr/Raphinha- 1 week punt probably and WC next GW.
      3. Something else. (WC even?).

      Sanchez.
      TAA, Tsimikas, Pereira.
      Salah, Benrahma, Greenwood, Gray.

      Thoughts on this non TAA team to fund Lukaku/Ronaldo combo for a GW7 wildcard.

      Lost of wait and see picks but have really good fixtures. The likes of Bailey etc not 100% but will see how they perform next gw

      McCarthy Foster
      Rudiger Tierney Semedo Duffy Livramento
      Salah Benrahma Bailey Raph Grealish
      Lukaku Ronaldo 4.5m

      Cheers guys

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        TAA is by far the best 7m range player to own in the game.

        Not sure why people do this to themselves.

        1. Harry the Hack
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          You can't look at a single position in isolation. Under that logic you could then say Cancelo is the best 6m range player in the game and Matip is the best 5m range player in the game.
          You can't fill your team with defenders.

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            I think you are missing the point but anyhow.

            1. Harry the Hack
              • 14 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Perhaps I am.
              But FPL is about your total team score as a whole rather than individual players. And if you want the best player at a particular price point, you would only be picking defenders.

              1. FOO FIGHTER
                • 4 Years
                2 years, 6 months ago

                No, not everyone who has TAA goes back heave.

                TAA missed GW5 and only the only forward to have scored more than him is Antonio.

                TAA is a points powerhouse. If he had played this past weekend and hauled he woulld have been the second highest scoring asset biting at Salah heels.

                1. Harry the Hack
                  • 14 Years
                  2 years, 6 months ago

                  I'm not saying people with TAA do go back heavy. I'm saying defenders across the board are cheaper than equivalent price points of other positions. It's just people look at TAA in isolation in this regard

                  1. FOO FIGHTER
                    • 4 Years
                    2 years, 6 months ago

                    Yeah but I would rather have TAA and a 4.5 mid compared to Grealish tbf.

            2. Goonsquad245
              • 7 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              I’m not sure he is. You can’t compare across positions because defenders are better value across all price points, so value over replacement player is a lot lower for TAA.

              If you could, TAA would be 9-9.5m

      2. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Prefer Trent and Gray over Semedo and Grealish

      I was thinking of getting Sarr instead of traore this GW and then Rudiger instead of Shaw for GW 7 but i only have 0.1 itb and rudiger’s price is set to rice tonight. So should i take a -4 now or just get Gray instead of Sarr and move to Rudiger/James GW7?

          you are too generous with your words Goonsquad.

      Owning Christensen,who else u suggest to take from Che defs?

      1. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Alonso for upside chasers
        Rudiger for dullards
        James for stop start frustration
        Chilwell for those who know Tuchel better than he does

      2. fc_skrald

        I have had Alonso from the beginning but not sure I dare tor recommend getting him - surprised he has started them all.

      3. shiraz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 3 Years

        I am looking at rudiger. Alonso will be rising soon, and i can use that extra 0.3 for better use.

    19. Tripleh123
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Currently on Dias, Alonso, TAA. Tempted to go for 5 premium defenders by adding Cancelo & Rudiger. Is it advisable?

      1. Heres hoping x 7
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Defence don't win mini leagues in my opinion, and thats a lot of cash as the back

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

        Not a good setup. Your current defence is already great. Use the ft to beef up your mid and forwards.

      Gray....is his value about to increase? If so how do people know?

      Want more info on Raphimha before I make the switch but read another comment saying Gray price is increasing tonight?

        yeah he is going up.

      Bench one and sell one (for who) - 1 FT &1.2m ITB

      A) TAA (injury concern)
      B) Raph (injury concern
      C) Toney (liv)
      D) Ings (man u)
      E) Veltman (cry)

      1. Brimble82
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Trent should be fine for wknd; check Scout tweets:
        https://www.twitter.com/FFScout/status/1439916937581142016

        I'd bench Veltman and consider selling Ings (as I think there are better value options out there)

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

        Taa should be back.
        I would keep raphinha
        Not much option for toney replacement unless you have extra cash in bank
        Ings can be moved for antonio
        Veltman is quite nailed, though there are other better option like white. Duffy can be for short term

      3. Stranger Mings
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I was looking at c but only really Dennis, king & Armstrong alternatives

      4. Dr. Rog
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Ings or Toney need to be moved on. Expect the first 2 to play. Veltman is the one who should always be benched in this scenario.

      Should i start begovic ahead of meslier? Leeds face west ham and i am not confident of leeds defence. And with pickford injured, begovic will be starting.

      1. CRO KLOPP
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I would start Begovic

    24. Stranger Mings

      Foster ahead of Sanchez ?

    25. CRO KLOPP

      1 ft,0.9 itb,WC available

      Sanchez
      TAA Shaw White
      Salah Greenwood Benhrama Sarr
      Ronaldo Bamford Antonio
      (4.0 Ayling Brownhill Tsimikas )

      A) Save
      B) Ayling to Livramento,bench White and play Livra

      1. shiraz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        I would ship out shaw for dias, cancelo or rudiger. Otherwise quite a good team

      Fair to save the free transfer for this team?

      Sánchez
      Shaw, Alonso, TAA
      Jota, Salah, Fernandes, Sarr
      Ings, Antonio, Toney

      Steele, Duffy, Amartey, Gilmour
      1 free transfer, 0.2 million in the bank

      1. CRO KLOPP
        • 6 Years

        Save and reasses

    27. gonzalocampos
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I am getting Toney on my WC GW8 and probably a defender. I will bench Toney for a couple of gameweeks (play 4-4-2) then on GW10 I will play 3-4-3 with Toney on top (Burnley, Norwich, Newcastle).

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        That's some forward thinking right there

      2. Stranger Mings
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Toney great option but very difficult upcoming fixtures

      3. Harry the Hack
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        or you could trade him in gw10..

        1. gonzalocampos
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          That is also an option but having him on a WC will save me a transfer, it's just a couple of weeks that I will bench him.

      Pep Guardiola ahead of Tuesday's EFL Cup tie with Wycombe: "We have John [Stones], Aymeric [Laporte], Oleks [Zinchenko], Rodri - I think Gundo - all of them injured."
      Pep 'thinks' Gundo is injured??

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        No, Sanchez has been a really dull 4.5 to own and I am getting keen to sell. But personally am more interested in Ramsdale as a replacement.

        1. Zimo
          • 5 Years

          I want Raya from GW9. Have to hold Sanchez till then
