FPL Gameweek 3 Scout Picks: Forest triple-up

There’s not a Liverpool or Arsenal player in sight in the Scout Picks for Gameweek 3 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL).

We considered the Scout Squad submissions made by Neale (Editor), Tom (Deputy Editor), Sam (General Manager) and Marc (Staff Writer) before coming up with our final team.

As ever, there are certain restrictions for our picks:

  • An £83.0m budget for our starting XI
  • An overall squad limit of £100.0m
  • No more than three players per team

GAMEWEEK 3 SCOUT PICKS

GOALKEEPER

Robert Sanchez (£5.0m) gets the nod between the sticks ahead of Chelsea’s home match against Fulham on Saturday. The Spaniard has conceded just once in his two matches so far (an effort from 25+ yards, to boot), and given that Marco Silva’s side haven’t really impressed from an attacking perspective this season, a home clean sheet could well be on the cards.

    On WC this week and BB next week. I have cash for Wood to Ekitike or Isak
    Any obvious mistakes here apart from spreading the cash and no Salah?

    Vicario

    Cucurella Burn Porro

    Gapko Barnes Sarr Caicedo

    Pedro Haaland Wood (C)

    Dub Reijnders VVV Lacroix

      No. Team looks good to me.

      I assume that's Crystal Palace's Sarr? Not sure I would get Spur's Sarr.

      Not sure what VVV means? Is that VdV or VVD? If it's either of those 2 then your defence is going to be a benching pain in the a** every week

      Looks solid if you are comfortable with this strategy. I’d consider taking some cash out of Caicedo (Stach maybe) and switching some defs to defcon magnet defenders and starting with some free cash as we are still making decisions with a very limited amount of info and things could change fast. But yeah good team and good call on Haaland, if I were on WC I would defo have him in there too.

        Caicedo is a bigger DC magnet than anyone else on that team. 455 DC last season. I'd say he's absolutely worth 0.5 more than Stach.

          I hear ya but with a solid defence too imo this leaves too many points and too much value on the bench, especially with Arsenal and city fixtures from gw 7 and 6 respectively I would prefer more money itb than a slightly better mid who I would possibly bench quite often anyway, at least imo

            Agreed, I already mentioned his defense is a huge pain to bench every week. Reijnders, VVD and Lacroix on the bench? ouch.

            But I still wouldn't do Caicedo -> Stach. That's just a decent player to a bad one. Caicedo is almost a perfect 5th midfielder to bench because he'll probably get 4-5 almost guaranteed each week with DC. That's exactly the player you want 1st bench.

            I would probably downgrade 1 or 2 of those defenders though and either bank the money or put the spare elsewhere. I have spare money on my team but I on purpose went a little cheaper in my defense to make benching easy. I went Tarkowski, Murillo, Cucurella, VdV and Rodon. In fact, Reijnders is my 5th midfielder to be benched most weeks and I'm not feeling great about that. But this is the problem when there's a bunch of cheaper options that are doing well.

              Good points, given you an upvote mate. Caicedo is on my watchlist now but still not sure if someone like Damsgaard isn’t a significant step up again for just .4 more but yeah, defo one to keep an eye on!

                Well we'll see at the end of the season if DC beats out those more attacking players.

                He averaged 11.97 DC per game last season, so that's gotta be worth at least 30 out of 38 games with an extra 2 points? That's 60 points. Compare that to an attacking players upside.

                Damsgaard is pretty solid for attacking returns AND his DC is not bad either.

                It's hard to bench a player like reijnders or damsgaard though, and it's not hard to bench Caicedo every week.

                That's kind of why he's just a handy 5th mid, but it really depends how you want to build your team. Caicedo blocks you from having Sanchez, Cucu, and Pedro since it's another Chelsea.

      Yeah some points he raise are important it is VVD and Palace Sarr. Palace guys probably on get 3,4 and 5. Then they go prior to pool. Hopefully downgrade for cash spread then but yeah a few weeks of headaches. I can possibly FH 7 when Che and Liv clash.

        Trying to get a mix on the DC. I would say VVD, Burn, Lacroix and Caicedo are the DC monsters - at least I hope they are and then throw in the attacking of Porro and Cucurella

          Honestly though. With that defense, you could easily go 5 defense every week.

          But then you have a different benching headache in your mid or attack. 😀

            Well hopefully a massive bench headache each week means when I go for BB it pays off and I don’t make bad calls in the subsequent 2-3 weeks. This looks so much better than the BBs activated in GW1 or 2 but who knows. One major disadvantage of WC this week is lack of info I really wanted to go wood to Ekitike next week but if Isak comes in … that could also mess up Gapko if Ekitike goes out left and the whole plan goes up in flames. Hopefully Isak doesnt start GW4 even if signed in the next few days. The only way to preserve my sanity in the end was to leave enough cash for Isak 🙂

              Don't make the mistake of waiting too long before you BB. There'll always be an injury or two that pop up if you try to wait too long for the perfect moment.

      Nope. They looked strong against Liverpool, but with Gordon out, who knows what way they'll shuffle people around. My guess is Elanga will do well, but Barnes could either. I wouldn't captain them over Haaland, Pedro or Wood this week, not even close.

      and if they do.. it'll be one of Cunha, Bruno or Mbeumo, so I wouldn't trust that it'd be Cunha getting the points (if any).

      Guiu -> Pedro or Wood would be great if free.

      I'd probably bench Wirtz honestly, but I could see a case for Ndiaye, or Reijnders. Either way, Pedro or Wood is still better than almost anyone else on your team.

      Hard one this, I think benching Wirtz and bringing in Wood is a great option as mentioned above if free. But FTs might be very valuable after the break and spending one just to end up benching Wirtz is a big call. Depends on your own style and how hit averse you are down the line. Both good options imo go for whichever feels more fun.

            Team looks fine, but I definitely wouldn't captain Ndoye over Salah no matter the fixture. Not a very high ceiling for Ndoye IMO.

            For me it'd be either J Pedro or Salah in that case, but I hope it works out for you.

            Not sure how much you can plan in advance really as there’s still quite a lot of uncertainty and lots can happen in intl break… one thing for sure is tho that we will be wanting arsenal players gw7 and city players gw6 so that’s good to keep in back of mind.

            As an owner I am not sure what to think. Could easily imagine him on the team sheet. Am guessing he either starts or gets 0 but don’t really have any facts to back that up.

              No red flags there - apart from no obvious path to Haaland. Consider Munoz to Lacroix and Cucu to a 4.5/5 DC magnet to save a bit of money so you’re not as stranded if Haaland starts hauling. Also I own vdv and am looking to sell for a DC magnet.

                Second thoughts I guess selling Salah would be the path but yeah, I reckon a few value picks in def opens up the possibility of a Salah / Haaland team which is always good to have open as an option.

              Similar to me, though will have either Cunha or Fernandes (rather then Pool triple, so replacing Gakpo).

              Have Chalobah rather than Cuc as keeping funds aside to swap in either Palmer and/or Haaland later. So £2.4m itb currently.

                Probably something like Salah & Ekitike -> Palmer & Haaland. Plenty of good striker options though. I think Cherki may end up a great city option also.

                  Personally in your position I would try and hold - I personally did sell Wirtz this week for those reasons, but I think for a hit its a step too far, especially as it woukd involve taking the armband from Wood to a United player when they aren’t doing too tell at moment. But of course, that being said they could win 4-0 and Fernandes could haul so who knows haha.

                There’s plenty 4.5 defs and around 6 mil mids who look like good options this season. And I reckon you’ll get your money back on Watkins soon anyway. Not a big deal imo.

                  *less than (didn't like the symbol apparently!) 100m now too. But I'm not going to sell a player just because they're dropping if I don't think it's the right move. Plenty of time to get TV going in the right direction again, e.g. when we WC, and later in the season 0.3m is unlikely to make much difference

              I’ve been pulling my hair out all week about who to captain.

              A. Salah. Always gets returns.
              B. Joao Pedro. Should have captained him last week.
              C. Chris Wood. Could get a hat trick

              Need some help!?!?!

              Palmer to Mbeumo or another midfielder worth to take hit? Or just play Gabriel instead?

                If you don’t have a good captain option it’s worth considering. If you do, you could consider a more long term pick like Sarr etc.

                        Reasoning: we get premium defs becsuse they can score strongly in any fixture. Arsenal have an s tier defence and he carries obvious attacking threat. Man U just lost to Grimsby and Burnley will come to defend. For a free I would get Mbuemo but for a hit I don’t see the point

                Not sure about Etik given Liverpool are about to rub 130m out for Isak. Same goes for Gakpo.

              Christ, didn't realise Watkins was dropping. Seems odd ahead of a good few fixtures.

                He’s a very easy hold and will likely be 9 if not even more in a few weeks imo, wish I owned him
