Fantasy Football Scout has always been about ensuring our Premium Members have access to all the tools, data and content. Our aim has always been to ensure our subscribers maximise their FPL potential.

Over the course of the last three seasons, we have worked behind the scenes to improve our content and resources.

Ahead of 2025/26, we have a whole host of exciting new things heading your way. I won’t spoil those now, but I hope they’ll be greeted with excitement.

However, as General Manager, I am acutely aware that it is my job to ensure the constant development of the business. I want to make sure that our community has a role to play in the direction that Fantasy Football Scout travels.

As a FPL manager myself, developing new tools is something that I love. Seeing the Tech Team bring new ideas to life genuinely excites me. Every day is currently spent pushing development forward and challenging ourselves to do better.

However, I also wanted to stop and connect with our Premium Members. It’s important to be that we are getting the direction of travel right.

At the end of every season, we send out a survey and, of course, we will do this again this season.

Right now, though, I want to open the lines of communication between myself and our Members. If you have any questions I have created a form, which you can access below. I’d love to hear from you!

Premium Members Q&A

This form will be available until Monday 26 May. If you have something you’d like to ask, feedback you’d like to give or just have an idea you’d like to have brought to life, get in touch!

    Best KDB replacement if maintaining a 6pt lead but ML rival has Salah

    A Salah (CPL)
    B Bowen (ips)
    C Saka (sot)

    12 point lead in ML. We are both closing in on top 50k.

    Our differentials:

    I have Eze, Watkins (0,5 in the bank, 1 FT)
    He has Mbeumo, Bowen, Mateta (1 FT, will prob use FT Mateta -> Evanilson)

    I will captain Salah - so by chasing me, I´m guessing he will go for Mbeumo as C...

    So, what should I do:
    A: Eze -> Martinelli
    B: Eze -> Gordon
    C: Eze, KdB -> Mbeumo, Bowen for -4 to kill differentials (then he will have KdB as a differential......)

    Hi guys. I have 2FT for GW38 but three targets

    1. Kerkez
    2. Bowen
    3. Evanilson

    Which two would you prioritise? (If I don’t get Kerkez, I’ll have to start Munoz away at Liverpool, if I don’t get Evanilson, I’ll be hoping Isak is fit to start)

    Thanks in advance

          Maby not if we´re sure he´ll start. But Isak has been frustrating to own lately, very inconsistant. Like the big hitters Saka, Salah, Palmer etc

          I'd defo be doing 2 then but 1 or 3 might depend on the Isak news if we get any. I'd rather own him than any other striker in the game I think, even Haaland, but if there's any doubt probably best just shipping him out.

      Maybe KDB comes on for an ovation or goes off for one. Can’t see him playing 90. Saka looks off it but has the fixture. Definitely not Salah. Long overdue a haul. If I was you I’d sell KDB

    Why are so many captaining Salah? He's done nothing for ages and has been particularly average at Anfield.

    Ignoring the 15pts against Southampton because of 2 pens, the last time he hauled at Anfield was GW13. Palace are a good away team defensively as well. Not sold on Salah captain at all.
