With so many of you seeking advice on their teams before August 16, we thought it would be prudent to run a daily community article to provide a dedicated focus for “Rate My Team” (RMT) requests.

Each day ahead of the new season, we’ll select one of the Fantasy Football Scout team and post up their own RMT request to open up discussion and encourage others to post their own. We’ll turn the comments over to you to provide a useful place for those seeking advice and highlight some of the key decisions under deliberation.

Please nudge those posting RMTs in other articles to visit this daily RMT article. Also, when posting requests, please remember to be courteous to those who take the time to help out. Equally, if you’re an experienced Fantasy manager with some views on initial line-ups, take time out to dip in and contribute – the Fantasy Football Scout team will be doing their upmost to offer their feedback as the discussion develops throughout the day.

The next Fantasy Premier League RMT contender is Green Windmill.

Foster
Terry, Evans, Pieters
Mata, Ramsey, Hazard, Sigurdsson
Rooney, Dzeko, Austin
Subs: Krul, Davis, Ward, Bartley

Green Windmill is keeping 1.0 in the bank to address any issue that may arise from the first week’s games or for a rainy day. Is he right to keep this back? He is also open to suggestions to improve his bench and wonders whether Chelsea midfielder Eden Hazard may be a risk given his reduced pre-season. Could his team mate Cesc Fabregas be a better choice?

Feel free to get stuck in with your feedback. We look forward to scanning your RMTs throughout the day on this article.

    Foster (Myhill)
    Terry - Cahill - Lovren - Debuchy (Wisdom)
    Mata - Ramsey - Young (Siggy, Isgrove)
    Rooney - Costa - Dzeko

    Thoughts? I believe Young is immense value at 5.5, and pretty much has that positioned nailed for 4 weeks. I play 4 at the back cause I've noticed the first 2 gameweeks has more CS in them than the rest of the season.

    Isgrove is my biggest concern, though.

      Young: Midfielder playing a defender position. Won't also benefit from CSs. Has to produce decent attacking returns all 4 weeks. Am less confident than you are.

      Isgrove: Yup--His gametime is unknown at best, questionable pick to come off the bench for a starting 11 who doesn't start.

      Pretty ballsy 4 at the back. Would rather downgrade one of the defenders to upgrade Young to Sterling/Eriksen but you've got your reasons. Don't agree but they are valid.

        Thank you. I'll probably get knee jerky with Young if he doesn't produce. He gets forward a lot though so I don't read too much into his position in the team sheet. But fair comments.

        Isgrove... Damnit Albrighton!

        4 at the back... I'll revert back to 3-4-3 in GW 3. So Eriksen/Lamela might happen then.

          Young[MUN] is the flavor of the moment. Not a huge fan myself.

          Matic [CHE] ?? Can't honestly think of a 5.5M MID I'd take myself. Moving that to a 6+M midfielder opens up 'stronger' options.
          Think about that maybe?

      GK- Begovic would seem a better shout in GW1, Krul has some tough fixtures.

      Def- Personally I'd have Caulker over Rio if I was picking a QPR defender. Rest looks ok.

      Mid-I have the exact same midfield, taking a risk with Henderson, in terms of him picking up points as a holding midfielder. I think it'll be worth it.

      Would Baines in for Jagielka be a good move? --Yup. But EVE have very difficult games early on. Might want to hold up on getting their defenders.
      an anyone suggest a better option than Ferdinand? -- His CB partner Caulker. Sticking with 4.5M options van Aanholf [SUN].

      ---Also, Vlaar? Aston Villa will leak in goals, hardly worth the investment if your defender doesn't have CS potential IMO.

        I had considered van Aanholt, my only concern was him doubling up with Mannone, although thinking about it that might be better than having a QPR defender.

        I was taking a bit of a punt on Vlaar, he managed 92 last season in what was an awful defence. My thinking is they can't possibly be worse than last year so there's a good chance he'll score more this time round.

        Regarding Mata/Herrera I am very unsure which one to leave out really. Swapping out Mata gives me Ramsey, Swapping Herrera gives me Hendo/Sidwell etc and some more money to spend on other spots.

    3.0 ITB (!!!) -> can jump on anything, i can get Dzeko/Jove etc in if Bojan loses value or upgrade mid/def depending on what happens.

    Speroni - Green
    Luis - Chambers (planned transfer before GW4) - Clyne - Bartley - Moore
    Ramsey - Mata - Coutinho - Young - Siggy
    Bojan - Rooney - Costa

    Thoughts? Im considering upgrading Luis or Chambers right now, but not sure if it pays off tbh.

      I'd downgrade on Green and just play one keeper for now. Gets you another .5m in the bank to play with 😉
      Looks good, though.

      Interesting. Are you playing 3-4-3 or 3-5-2 in GW1? If 3-4-3 which midfielder is on the bench?

        GW 1&4: 3-4-3, benching Siggy
        GW 2-3: 3-5-2, benching Bojan

        Will find some value pick or Chambers ASAP, not likely play him GW 2 or 3 anyways and see what happens with Stoke defence and Palace defence.

          Worth a try. I had a similiar strategy of rotating between Bojan / Siggy on a previous draft but had nightmares about one of them having a great week when benched and ended up changing it...

            Yeah, I've been back and forth on this. Don't really like rotating offensive players either - however, if I put in Dzeko/Jove in first team I'm left with same dilemma over Young, Ireland, Mutch or whoever will be the fifth mid. Aaaaaaaaaaah the options.

      Like the defense actually. Won't go near Debuchy now [opting for an uber cheap defense with 1 6M+ DEF so more like can't go near Debuchy] but like him as a player. Not sold on O'Shea tbh-- van Aanholt [same team] is a full back & should earn attacking points. Might be worth a looksie.
      Cheers.

      7/10. A tad too light at the back for me, and as you say with your subs. Good idea with 1mil itb 🙂
      Personally id downgrade hazard, as you have costa to pick up the points in chelsea games, and upgrade to a premium defender.

        Thanks, I'm going with Tom fenley's advice that it takes team to build an understanding and get clean sheets, so once my team value has grown ill get premium 2 defenders.

    Think i may finally have settled on my team....

    RMT please guys!

    Begovic
    Terry - Debuchy - B.Davies
    Ramsey - Mata - Eriksen - Henderson
    Rooney - Costa - Bojan

    Subs - Myhill - Ward - Bruce - Sigurdsson

    0.5 ITB for early season emergencys

    Begovic is a given and dont plan to use myhill.
    Hendo is a slight punt but he seems to be popping up with goals and seems good value at 6.
    Davies i dont think is 100% nailed but i expect him to shine this season. Ward to replace if needs be. Bruce is staying on the bench and Bojan looks like a decent early season punt with his pre season form and stokes fixtures schedule.

    Any feedback welcome! I will reply to your 'RMT' cheerrrrs!!

      GKS - 6/10 (personally going 1 big hitter)

      DEF - 4/10, lack of big hitters, too many around the 5,0 price. Would look for Chelsea in there.

      MID - 8.5/10 standard, I prefer puncheon over siggy, who is isgrove?

      FWD - 10/10 rest of team is a little weaker but that front line is orgasmic
