Andy North and Pras combine again in another exclusive video for Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout.

The pair will be chatting over on our YouTube channel about their own Gameweek 31 teams and the chip strategies being deployed within the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) community.

Will the pair be keeping or selling the injured pair of Marcus Rashford (£7.2m) and Luke Shaw (£5.1m)? Are they joining the 500,000 others that have already bought Jack Grealish (£7.1m) this week?

With Blank Gameweek 32 on the way, plans for these three players largely depend on whether a manager intends to activate their Free Hit chip.

Andy and Pras are live from 20:45 BST, with the stream watchable via the embedded video below.

And if you’ve missed the start or indeed the whole of the live broadcast, you can of course still watch the stream back from the start in its entirety.

Only Premium Members of Fantasy Football Scout will be able to watch the video below, so make sure you sign up today to get access to not just this stream but also exclusive YouTube content from Andy, Mark and others throughout the 2022/23 campaign.



FPL Marc Broadcaster, writer and overthinker. Hoping that ‘differential potential’ will catch on.

    what's the consensus on FH when does everyone plan to use and why?

    1. fijuhmon
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Team dependant but 32 seems to be the pick.

    2. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      32 here, shedloads of blankers.

      1. ViperStripes
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Doing my head in having 1FT going to go to waste using FH32 unless I do:
        a) Saka > Salah - ballsy but could be genius
        b) chilwell or Pinnock > Estu or TAA

        1. ViperStripes
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          post fail

    3. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Either GW34 or GW37.

      Im on a WC now with a decent playing 11 for GW28

      1. Sharkytect
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Bit late for gw28

        1. Stimps
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Doh.... 32

    4. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      32, because I have 8 players blanking and team is well set for 34 and future doubles

    5. jonnybhoy
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      32

    6. Sharkytect
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      32. Because rashford and shaws injuries sound like they should be short term

    7. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Made the decision a couple of weeks ago to FH 34 and have 3 blankers on the bench for 32. Didn't bother bringing in Haaland. Rank drop from 26k to 53k. Maddison and Bruno have been awful transfers in as well. Won't have Haaland again this week so could be curtains for the season if he starts and goes banana's

      1. DavvaMC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Was all set on FH32, have 2 blank players in starting 11 and 3 blanks on the bench including bench. Already made transfer of Rashford > Martinelli.

        Considering this week for a -4.

        1. Chilwell > TAA

        It is a gamble to not going FH32, what do you think?

        Current team is:

        Kepa / Raya

        Estupinan / Zinc / Chilwell / Trippier / Schar

        Saka / Martinelli / Maddison / Mitoma / March

        Haaland / Kane / Watkins

        Many thanks

    8. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      32 - no option given team with 3 United, Brighton, 2 City and no Liverpool Arsenal

  2. fijuhmon
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Raya (Kepa)
    Trippier, Schär, Shaw (Henry, Estu)
    Bruno, March, Mitoma, Øde (Rash)
    Kane, Haaland, Watkins

    A) Kepa to Ederson
    B) Henry to Ake
    C) Øde to Martinelli

    1. GK
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      B

  3. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Care to rate my WC team? Would you change anything? 0.2 itb

    Raya
    Trippier TAA White
    Salah Saka Martinelli March
    Haaland Kane Isak

    Steele Andreas Guehi Castanga

    1. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Very nice Stimps.

    2. SH
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Very different than my WC. This what I am likely going with.

      Ederson Iverson
      Trippier Robertson Dunk Moreno 3.8
      Salah Grealish Martenelli Mitoma Olise
      Haaland Watkins Jesus

      Plan is to get Rashford and Bruno in place of Martenelli and Olise in 34, by downgrading Watkins to a fodder. FH37. What's your plan for City and United?

      1. Stimps
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Not bad. Is Moreno nailed? Better option than Caatagna for 32?
        My plan is to FH in 34. So I'll load up on everyone then. City / United etc

        1. SH
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          He is clearly ahead of Digne. If you want a Villa defender, you can also get Konsa for the same price. I wouldn't go near Leicester defense.

  4. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Rashford to Grealish or Martinelli? have saka

    1. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      If FH 32 Grealish if Not Martinelli

    2. fijuhmon
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I'd go Grealish

    3. OverTinker
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      can start March and save FT too

    4. DBW - Slug's Mortgage …
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Mahrez.

    5. Assisting the assister
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Problem with Mahrez is you then need him out

  5. jonnybhoy
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    What to do here? FH in 32 so want to use FT. 0.9 ITB.

    I'm really tempted by B- Arsenal tough fixtures 33 to 36 and can bring Saka back for 37/38.

    Raya
    Trippier Schar Estu
    Saka Mitoma March Bruno
    Haaland (C) Kane Watkins

    Kepa Henry Rashford* Shaw*

    A) Raya to Ederson - original plan
    B) Rashford/Saka to Grealish
    C) Something else

  6. rozzo
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Play which 3

    A). Trippier
    B). Botman
    C). Mings
    D). Chilwell
    E). Mee

    1. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      ACE

  7. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    If you have Raya who to play ?
    A- Chilwell
    B- Henry
    C- Shaw

    1. jonnybhoy
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      C

    2. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      At this stage I'd go Henry, he has a 12/15 in him.

  8. DavidKent
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Rate my strategy please?

    I’ve got BB and WC left, but no free hit.

    I’ve currently got 7 players for blank GW32.

    Use FTs to get to 10 players for GW32, concentrating just on the beat players for GWs31-32

    WC in GW33, focusing on GWs 33-38, focusing on DGW34 for a BB

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Think it’s the right strategy

    2. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Sounds good.

      1. DavidKent
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks guys

  9. OverTinker
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    If I can field 9 players in GW 32 I should save my FH right?

    1. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Depends.

      1. OverTinker
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        on What?

        1. David Parkinson
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Your team v a FH32, then the non-FH34 teams v you.

          1. OverTinker
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 9 months ago

            hmm

    2. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      depends if you have the right 9 players

      1. OverTinker
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Raya - Trippier - Botman - Saka - Martineli - Salah - Isak - Waktins and one more I will add next GW. So 9 players will be without any hit

    3. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Pretty obvious , don't overtink it.

    4. dshv
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I am thinking the same but probably will field 10..

    5. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      That is far from obviously true

      Depends on the 9 vs how set up for 34

    6. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Been thinking the same, but will of course require some hits. But these hits are for pool players now and next week fixtures.

  10. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    i have grealish already from last week, and doing FH 32, so:

    A Rashford to mahrez for free
    B kepa to Aderson/DDG for free
    C rashford and maddison to bruno and Eze -4

    1. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I'm thinking of getting both Grealish and Mahrez for this week. I'd go A I think.

  11. Chrisaa87
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    What would you do with this team? Have fh and wc left. 2ft

    Ward meslier
    Trippier Chilwell shaw kilman pinnock
    Salah maddison rash mitoma martinelli
    Watkins kane toney

    1. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      WC this week and FH32.

  12. dshv
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Is it a must move about Maddy or Rashy for Grealish ??

    1. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I’d be 100% doing Maddison -> Grealish if I owned him.

      If FH32 then I don’t think Rashford -> Grealish is worth it. Famous last words but Grealish whilst a nice option this week has some minutes risk and isn’t exactly a Haaland in terms of FPL hauling. The bandwagon has picked up a bit too much speed

    2. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I don't think so. It's flavour of the month though.

    3. Bennerman
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      If you're not on a FH in 32 – I'm not – then Maddison is a pretty straightforward keep.

      Fair bit of frothing at the mouth on here about getting rid but it's not so 'essential' as portrayed.

  13. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    This week only; Grealish or Mahrez?

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Mahrez

    2. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Mahrez

    3. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Mahrez

      1. Reece’s Pieces
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        I’m on this too - went Grealish for form and poss mins too

    4. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I have both in my WC team

    5. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      For 1 week, defo Mahrez.

  14. Hitthewall
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Raya
    Robertson - Trippier - Zinchenko
    Salah - Martinelli - Maddison - Olise
    Kane - Jesus - Watkins

    Should I get this team for GW32 for a -8 or play free hit?

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Depends on whether you still have WC

  15. BrockLanders
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    What's people's thoughts on Luis Diaz? Talk he'll start on Monday. Tempted to swap Rashford to him instead of Grealish.

    1. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Would be surprised to see him start

    2. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Feels a bit too soon, let him return and have a look.

    3. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Would not go near Diaz currently.

    4. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Bench will get 39 mins

      1. BrockLanders
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Could haul from the bench

        1. David Parkinson
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Darwin more of hauler if he finds a bit of form. Diaz more of a floater, good, but not great for hauls, imo.

          1. George Sillett
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 9 months ago

            Diaz is a floater ? That sounds grim. Hope he's not looking up .

    5. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Too soon. Will be eased in very gradually. A non option for now

  16. XX SMICER XX
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    What duo is best?

    A. Konate & Rashford/Sancho
    B. Robertson & March (have TAA, Mitoma)
    C. 4.5m DEF (have Botman) & Bruno

    1. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      B probably. Close though

    2. Well you know, Triffic
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Konate only returned to training today (apparently...check)

    3. XX SMICER XX
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Thanks - currently on B

      Is double Liv defence too much?

      Steele Iverson
      TAA Robertson Shaw Botman Fofana
      Salah Mitoma March Mahrez Grealish
      Haaland Kane Greenwood

      1. Well you know, Triffic
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Yes. They won't keep many clean sheets.

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Yeah they don't really do Cs (11) most in league 13

      2. BrockLanders
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        No. Good for 34 too

  17. ididnt
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Bench one of

    A. Maddison
    B. Mitoma
    C. Mac10

    1. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Tough one that. Probably C

    2. ididnt
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Or D. Watkins

    3. TheDragon
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Maddison … I don’t think it’s that close

    4. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      The one on horrendous form and playing the toughest opponent...A.

    5. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      A

  18. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Kepa and Steele owners, what are you doing for this gw?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Crying

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Join me in -4 for Ederson. Tho it is bad to bench Steele in dgw 34 and 37.

      2. sentz05
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 9 months ago

        Why

        1. Dušan Citizen
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          2 years, 9 months ago

          Steele possible injury, Kepa probably benched.

  19. southernrocker1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Thoughts on John Stones?

    Brought him in last week and regretted it. Hold?

    Are Chilwell owners keeping hold of him, too?

    1. Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I was keeping Chilwell but now tempted to ditch for Trent for -4

    2. DavvaMC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      I wanted to bring in Stones but I am probably FH in 34.

      Going Chilwell to TAA.

  20. George Sillett
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone considering any Chelsea assets steer well clear imo. Fair chance Kepa loses his place and whilst there is a chance of Cucurella starting that virtually guarantees no CS.

  21. sentz05

    Bench 2
    A Mings
    B Trippier
    C Pinnock

    1. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years

      Mings & Pinnock

  22. ididnt
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Chilly > TAA or Dias for -4?

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      No

  23. Bezz82
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Why all the love for TAA? Is it the fixtures or the new midfield role?

    1. sentz05
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Attacking returns

    2. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      Fixtures and double in 34 I presume, not sure I’ll own him apart from on FH in 32 myself

    3. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      suppose he plays 32 and doubles 34

  24. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 9 months ago

    Raya
    Trippier Estupinian Shaw
    Grealish March MacAllister Saka
    Haaland Kane Watkins

    Kepa Henry Botman Rashford

    Would you swap any player on the bench for one in the team or all set?

    1. David Parkinson
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 9 months ago

      If you think Bees can sting Wolves, double-up.

      Henry vs Estu vs Botman is one that we can only get wrong

        Definetly going to pick the wrong one mate lol. Think I’ll go Estupinian and hope for a cheeky assist

    Iversen Maddison Castagne Shaw

      Raya - wolves poor attack. Utd defence in pieces

    Start
    A) Shaw
    B) Estup
    C) Chilly

      I’m starting Shaw

      Even though I expect Brighton to win , if I owned Chilwell I’d start him as he is so attacking he had mega haul potential

      I know people are negative on Chilwell now but in my opinion people have gone a bit too far. Yes Chelsea are a shambles but he has huge FPL potential still - even though clean sheet unlikely this week
