The international break is finally over and with the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) deadline closing in ahead of Gameweek 13, five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman is here to help with your FPL dilemmas for the next hour.

Whether it’s questions on transfers, captaincy, differentials or anything in between, Scout’s Deputy Editor will tackle whatever’s thrown at him.

He’ll be on hand to first reply to requests from Premium Members in the Hot Topic below the line of this piece and will get through as many as he can until the next article goes up. If there’s time, Tom will also turn his attention to other requests in the comments section.

If you’d like to receive an email notification letting you know when future RMT Surgery’s are live, you can now do so. When editing your profile, under ‘Alerts & Notifications‘, you’ll find a section on ‘Email Notifications‘. In there is an option for ‘Rate My Team Surgery‘, check that box and you will receive an email letting you know when the surgery is about to go live.

You can, as ever, chip in with your own opinions on the RMT requests filtering through – and naturally, you’re free to ignore the article subject matter and talk about any other wider FPL topics that you’d normally be musing on.

Don’t forget that, if it’s an algorithmic answer you’re after rather than an opinion-based one, we also have a ‘Rate My Team’ tool available in the Premium Members Area.

      End of the road for Alvarez. No goal threat.

  6. waltzingmatildas
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Which looks better?
    A) Saliba and Eze
    B) Guehi and Mbeumo

    Still have my WC if it makes any difference, probably play GW19 if no serious problems

    1. Sharkytect
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      A

  7. Saintjack01

    What defender would you bring in with 4.6 ITB

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Castagne

  8. Ian Davis
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Best Botman replacement? Max of 5.0

    1. Rojo's Modern Life
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 10 days ago

      Gabriel

  9. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Mitomas absence improves Pedros chances somehow? Or benched again?

  10. Lollabear
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Would you play Areola or Johnstone?

  11. tryf88
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Start Cash? Diaby to Palmer or roll?

  12. DavvaMC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Quick question if a player drops in price and it says my SP for that player is 5.0m, will I still sell for 5.0M after the player drops or will it be 4.9M?

    Hope that makes sense

    1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      4.9

      1. DavvaMC

        Thanks

  13. SomeoneKnows
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    With 2FT + 2.3itb who should I prioritize getting instead of Mitoma?

    A) Saka
    B) Mbeumo
    C) Other ideas?

    Areola
    Gabriel, Andersen, Cash
    Salah, Son, Gordon, Mitoma
    Haaland, Alvarez, Watkins

    (Turner, Tsimikas, Lamptey, Chukwuemeka)

    1. Sharkytect
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      I think the correct answer is saka but I am leaning towards Eze for this weeks fixture and gameweek 18 fixture (planning way ahead!)

  14. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Usually avoid hits if I can but suddenly thinking of this -8, is it any good?

    Alvarez > Archer
    Diaby > Palmer
    Mitoma > Son

    Current team is

    Areola
    Trippier Cash Tsimikas
    Salah Saka Diaby Mitoma
    Haaland Watkins Alvarez

    Turner Lascelles Taylor ahamada

    Would leave money itb to improve defence or bench over next few

    1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Palmer could also be Ezo or Gordon.

      Plan B would be no hit, just replace Mitoma.

      1. Sgt. Schultz
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 12 days ago

        plan B - Mito > Eze/ Palmer

  15. Yankee Toffee
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    RMT plz

    Areola
    Cash, Trippier, Mykolenko
    Salah, (c) Son, Gordon, Douglas, Saka
    Haaland, Watkins

    Turner, Laschelles, Semenyo, Gusto

  16. MannionUK
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Help! 2FT and a WC. Can I plaster over cracks with 2FT?

    Johnstone
    Trippier, Porro, Udogie
    Son, Mitoma, Bowen, Diaby, Saka
    Watkins, Haaland

    Areola, Kabore, Gvardiol, Mubama

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Bowen & Mitoma >> Mbeumo & Palmer/Gordon ?

  17. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    On WC..

    Considering I have Palmer as 8th attacker who can come on during GW 16 and 17 who would you prefer

    A) Eze (Great 3 fixtures and A fixture GW 18 + 0.7)

    B) Mbeumo (-0.7 and no fixture gw 18.. but arguably the better fpl option?)

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      B imo

    2. Bobkat
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      B

  18. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 9 Years

    Areola

    Cash Guehi Livramento

    Salah Son Saka Bowen Adingra

    Haaland Watkins
    (Turner, Tsiki, Taylor, Mubamba)

    Cash & Bowen >> Saliba & Mbeumo/Gordon for free?

    Cheers 🙂

  19. Bishopool
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    What would u do, with 2FT-s, 0.2m in bank?

    Areola (Turner)
    Tripp Saliba Porro Coufal Reguilon

    Haaland* Alvarez Pedro

  20. RamaJama

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 12 days ago

        Considering that, cheers!

    2. Sgt. Schultz
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Cash > Saliba, may be, but regds to Attackers I wouldn't rush in.

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Cash to Saliba / Zinc is the obvious move yeah

  21. Conners
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Could someone please tell me the correct captaincy pick for this week?

    Many thanks

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Haaland

    2. Conners
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Yeah perhaps. Not keen on early game captain though...

    3. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Hauland

    4. Conners
      • 6 Years

      Cheers both

    5. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Son

  22. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Nketiah and Ferguson are not likely to start right?

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Jesus is back. Ferguson could very well start. No flag, no mention from Zerbi.

      1. Woy_is_back
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 12 days ago

        yeah and probably Trossard is prefered over him now aswell

  23. Saintjack01
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Would you bring in saka for son or Bowen long term?

    1. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      No

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Keep Son

  24. rozzo
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Zinchenko nailed?
    Gabriel nailed?

    Would go Saliba but the other two are quite a bit cheaper

    1. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Go saliba

  25. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Cash -> Baldock?

    Baldock has a good fixture plus Will give me exact fund next GW for Mbuemo. Also Cash is falling and Baldock rising, will save me 0.2

    1. The Road to Turfdom
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Considering something similar (as part of a multi-transfer). I'm unsure it's worth a free transfer but if you had two sure

    2. Conners
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Wouldn't be surprised if Mbeumo rises again before next GW.

  26. circusmonkey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Tsimikas to Branthwaite is looking like my exciting transfer. Gonna keep Bowen if its only a week out. Need to get a nailed bench coming into this period.

    1. Saka White Rice
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Tsimikas 3 games > Branthwaite 5 games. However, if you need the money, then fair enough

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      What happened to tsimi?

    3. WVA
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      I was going to bring Tsimi in next week?

    4. Woy_is_back
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      How is Brantwaite an exciting transfer?

      1. circusmonkey
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 12 days ago

        I'm being sarcastic. But Gomez is in the predicted line ups, just need nailed players and the extra budget will help.

  27. WVA
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Who should I start?

    A. Cash
    B. Udogie
    C. Taylor

  28. Westfield Irons ⭐️
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Original plan was Martinelli to Bowen but based on uncertainty of Bowen starting, do you agree keeping Martinelli is best plan and rolling 1FT?

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      Yeah roll it

  29. Ian Davis
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Botman out for?:

    A) T Mitchell
    B) Akanji
    C) other ?

  30. Saintjack01
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 12 days ago

    Have 2 FT would you bring saliba in for Gabriel?

    1. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      2 years, 12 days ago

      No
