Whether the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) site is down or not, you can still plan your Gameweek 1 team – and get it rated – with our app!

In conjunction with PlanFPL, all FPL managers can get their team rated and optimised for Gameweek 1 for FREE using our points prediction data.

It’s a captaincy, starting XI and transfer planner all rolled into one.

Being a Chief Scout (sign up here!) allows you to unlock a full season of team ratings, transfer suggestions, line-up optimisations and ‘Rate My Team’ (RMT) Opta prediction data.

All you have to do is download the app, then link it to your Chief Scout member account.

HOW TO GET YOUR TEAM RATED VIA OUR TRANSFER PLANNER

To download the Fantasy Football Scout app, go to either the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. It’s a free download. 

Once the app is installed, select the ‘Planner’ tab as seen below.

FPL site down

And then, let the tinkering commence!

Here’s an example squad we’ve put together, which has been given an 83% rating by our tool:

FPL site down

There’s a position-by-position breakdown for this percentage (as seen below), with RMT numbers for Gameweek 2 onwards available upon Premium Member sign-in.

Enjoy!

    Bit confused by this on the app. You still need to put your team in when after linking to FPL Team number?

      FPL doesn't know your team until deadline.

    Further question on the app's transfer plan... given the Scout example is 83%, what do we think are the parameters of Decent, Good, Excellent in % terms.

    80% decent?
    Mid-high 80s Very good?

    Had anyone ever scored 90%+, is this realistic regularly?

      My team got a 91% on the Scout app:

      Sanchez, Dubravka
      Ait Nouri, Milenkovic, Andersen, Van de Ven, Esteve
      Salah, Palmer, Bruno, Reijnders, Tielemans
      Watkins, Joao Pedro, Guiu

      Given this team is a 98% on Hub, that tells me 90+ on Scout is very very good (purely based off data, in reality it can still go wrong).

      Wirtz instead of Bruno makes it a 92% with 0.5 ITB

    I can't download the app via Google Play. Is there some option to download via FFS site? Thanks
