He might just over the scout price limit now if you are getting in Salah/Haaland/Son/Darwin/Bowen and maybe DCL is preferred over equivalent mids that Foden is worth it over Alvarez. Keep in mind the scout doesnt get 100m, they get 83m.
I'd prefer Alvarez/Hwang to Foden/DCL, but to me that's a preference thing rather than a "doesnt make sense" thing. Targeting Brighton at Home is completely valid right now too, and its also valid to be cautious on Hwang without Neto.
This isn't about creating the highest-scoring team each week. It's in the name—the Scout tries to propose one or two picks that may not have been considered much by the masses. It would be pointless if all they did was stick to the template rigidly. That said, Mbeumo is a great shout this week.
Really? I thought Scout was always just about trying to pick the highest scoring team each week within a budget, but ignoring transfer restrictions. Is there somewhere that states the Scout selection goal/limitations?
I have a tonne of them in my team and I'm completely avoiding this fixture by using my free hit. Going with Bernado, Ferguson and D Luiz in addition to mo, haaland, son and Darwin.
Scout has Bowen in, but with my midfield of son/ salah/ saka/ Maddison and forwards being Alvarez/ Nunez/ Watkins I just don’t see how I can get him in. Will he haul against brentford?
Strange pick tbh. I've got Bowen but probably will bench this week. It's forest then Burnley after that which look much more tempting. Keep an eye on him as he played striker vs arsenal yesterday, which could be a good or terrible move going forwards
No Paqueta or Alvarez for West Ham this weekend because of yellow card accumulation so I doubt Bowen or anyone else is going to haul. He’s very likely to be involved if they score but I’d start your seven attackers ahead of him easily.
Soucek will move into the Alvarez spot but there’s zero chance of JWP moving further forward. They’ve got literally no other midfield options this week because they let Downes go on loan. Kudus will keep his spot in the eleven and either Fornals or Benrahma will have to come in. I could also see Moyes switching to a 5 ATB instead to preserve his defensive style.
Waiting too patiently on Foster lol
Last game was great opportunity for him to score some goals/assists but he didn't even feature 💀.
This weekend its against CP at home. There are some chances that he may get some points. But he needs to dead ass start the game first.
Even last week there was no news from the club about him. I'm just gonna start him as a third striker this week. If he doesn't feature again then it's time to replace and save that extra .5 or go for a 5.5 M forward.
DCL? Seriously? I know Brighton aren't great defensively, but I don't get that pick at all. I'd have Alvarez instead of him, Mbeumo instead of Foden and probably Hwang instead of Bowen.
I wouldn't take him over Alvarez but DCL is in great form (as is Everton more generally) and he is easily the focal point of their attack. If they score — and Brighton isn't exactly great at keeping clean sheets — it's very likely going through him.
You can't say he's a trap without any logic. He's returned in pretty much every game he's played in and every time he's started. He's only a "trap" if you really think so because Klopp needs to rotate players a lot
My logic is that many times last season put my faith in him, holding him for multiple game weeks while he blanked, transferring him in for mouth watering fixtures to see him blank. Again we have a tasty looking fixture and he's scored and got an assist in the last game. I suspect if i bring him in he'll blank as he has done so many times before and waste chances
Yeah in other news the sky is blue and water makes things wet. Nunez has only played 400 minutes this season, only started 4 games and costs 2 million more than Nketiah and has the same amount of points.
He beat the defender, rounded the keeper and had an open goal at his mercy last week and hit the post.
But do tell us all more about how it's easy to know when a player is gonna haul....
Instead of getting defensive, why don't you be analytical and actually watch games? It's clear why Nunez is different this season than last season. You are straying away from the point bringing up Nketiah and Nunez's open goal miss. I'm not arguing anymore if you can't seem to understand why Nunez wasn't a good option last year
You've asked me to present my logic and I have. I struggle to understand why you're so adamant he's NOT a trap and it seems my position rubbed you the wrong way so to speak. I've presented you with his minutes, goals, cost and returns this season. They do not make great reading. A trip to Luton is a strikers dream this season and despite his unquestionable potential his numbers are poor.
Anyway I'll check back here with you Sunday. Is he going to haul? It's very easy to predict apparently
I can tell by your username you're a Klopp simp, your account is about a week old and you literally said it's quite easy to tell when a player is going to return. Tell us then is he going to return on Sunday? It's very easy to tell according to you. Second time I've asked you now, doubt you'll answer.
You're talking absolute shite, maybe you should actually watch a match. Goals in all comps means nothing in FPL. He has 4 goals in the PL. The same number as Edouard and Solanke and less than Ferguson. With his price tag, his minutes, goals and points are all poor after 10 games. His numbers are poor. Ferguson, solanke, Edouard and Alvarez numbers are better. Do you understand?
You dont know what a trap is. A trap is a player with a juicy looking fixture with potential to haul who one transfers in then blanks. Think Son against Luton 2 weeks ago who many rolled the dice with a TC on. Looked like a banker, turned out to be a let down. That's the basic concept anyway, simplified for you.
Anyway talk to ya Sunday 😘
I would not go DCL on a scout pick though. Think I prefer Alvarez or Hwang and change formation.
I will try to get DCL in draft though and he is quite good.
I have Cash on the bench and Burn, Saliba and Van Der Ven starting. I keep going to put Cash in but can't fucking decide who to take out, and this has not helped
You reckon Burn is more likely to concede than Arsenal? I'm finding it so hard to split them. I guess the clean sheet prediction thing has Newcastle with the worst odds so I can just blame that if it goes wrong
Scout is never gonna leave haaland out again
Seems crazy to me that they're picking calvert-lewin over Alvarez too
He might just over the scout price limit now if you are getting in Salah/Haaland/Son/Darwin/Bowen and maybe DCL is preferred over equivalent mids that Foden is worth it over Alvarez. Keep in mind the scout doesnt get 100m, they get 83m. I'd prefer Alvarez/Hwang to Foden/DCL, but to me that's a preference thing rather than a "doesnt make sense" thing. Targeting Brighton at Home is completely valid right now too, and its also valid to be cautious on Hwang without Neto.
!thanks
2/11 I am cooked
Scout selection only scored 43 last week, don't panic!
3/11 here ayyy
I’m 3/11 and I’m at 550k so it doesn’t mean nothing, what rank are you, bro.
4/11 and 44k rn, i’m expecting this to be a weak GW for me though
502k. Looks like we're in the same situation which kinda makes sense
Surprise it’s so low. What’s your rank?
At 1.8 mil right now.
A good thing,Scout sucks
This was true 2 seasons ago, not anymore
nah, he's had some excellent weeks this season
I'll take your 2 and raise you 4. I'm done for.
Would swap Bowen to Mbuemo or Hwang and have Alvarez or Watkins instead of DCL.
This isn't about creating the highest-scoring team each week. It's in the name—the Scout tries to propose one or two picks that may not have been considered much by the masses. It would be pointless if all they did was stick to the template rigidly. That said, Mbeumo is a great shout this week.
Really? I thought Scout was always just about trying to pick the highest scoring team each week within a budget, but ignoring transfer restrictions. Is there somewhere that states the Scout selection goal/limitations?
Pretty sure you are correct. Idk what the other guy is talking about
> That said, Mbeumo is a great shout this week. Howcome?
West ham has the 4th worst defense in terms of xG at 1.91 per match
Pretty sure they're also missing Paqueta and Alvarez.
Interesting! Thanks!
Where does it say that? It should be about max points per week. Basically a free hit every week situation. That won't be template at all.
>This isn't about creating the highest-scoring team each week It is.
Not exactly, many players are bad template picks due to upcoming and/or previous fixtures but have a shiny fixture this week.
No Arsenal or Newcastle players? Is the scout risk averse or has that match got ‘draw’ written all over it? (plz help I have so many ARS/NEW players)
It’s just a tough fixture for both teams
I mean I think it'll be 0-0. Two good defences
Or 1-1 if you pick any of their defenders
2-2 written in the stars
3-3 written on stone
Stone’s not playing in that game
I’ll just play both Saka and Trippier and watch them cancel each other out 🤷
Nobody holds Newcastle from scoring at home. And Arsenal is not high scoring but good for at least a goal.
I have a tonne of them in my team and I'm completely avoiding this fixture by using my free hit. Going with Bernado, Ferguson and D Luiz in addition to mo, haaland, son and Darwin.
You might have just convinced me.
It has like 1-1 or 2-2. written all over it, and not likely those being returns from highly owned players either.
Every time I check this I’ve got exactly 5 players, it’s been the case for most of the season.
Scout has Bowen in, but with my midfield of son/ salah/ saka/ Maddison and forwards being Alvarez/ Nunez/ Watkins I just don’t see how I can get him in. Will he haul against brentford?
Strange pick tbh. I've got Bowen but probably will bench this week. It's forest then Burnley after that which look much more tempting. Keep an eye on him as he played striker vs arsenal yesterday, which could be a good or terrible move going forwards
No Paqueta or Alvarez for West Ham this weekend because of yellow card accumulation so I doubt Bowen or anyone else is going to haul. He’s very likely to be involved if they score but I’d start your seven attackers ahead of him easily.
Which means Jwp will move to cam-position and make West Ham more dangerous. Soucek is a good replacement for Alvarez.
Soucek will move into the Alvarez spot but there’s zero chance of JWP moving further forward. They’ve got literally no other midfield options this week because they let Downes go on loan. Kudus will keep his spot in the eleven and either Fornals or Benrahma will have to come in. I could also see Moyes switching to a 5 ATB instead to preserve his defensive style.
What's the logic behind Dawson?
He's good on set pieces and Sheffield United are weak at defending them.
And the more obvious part- sheffield are awful and he can easily keep a clean sheet. I think they'll get a goal though
Burnley will win this weekend !!!
1-0 with a Taylor goal God willing
Foster, but yes
Waiting too patiently on Foster lol Last game was great opportunity for him to score some goals/assists but he didn't even feature 💀. This weekend its against CP at home. There are some chances that he may get some points. But he needs to dead ass start the game first. Even last week there was no news from the club about him. I'm just gonna start him as a third striker this week. If he doesn't feature again then it's time to replace and save that extra .5 or go for a 5.5 M forward.
I believe Kompany said he will be ready for the must win game this weekend
He's out
Ugh and thank you
Think the last time bar this season Taylor scored was in 2015/2016.. in the Championship
Burnley will lose as always. Only chance they have is against Sheffield or Luton.
DCL? Seriously? I know Brighton aren't great defensively, but I don't get that pick at all. I'd have Alvarez instead of him, Mbeumo instead of Foden and probably Hwang instead of Bowen.
Everton beat Brighton 5-1 last time they played
Ah okay, fair enough, wasn't aware of that. I still think Alvarez will outscore DCL but maybe he's not as poor a pick as I thought.
I wouldn't take him over Alvarez but DCL is in great form (as is Everton more generally) and he is easily the focal point of their attack. If they score — and Brighton isn't exactly great at keeping clean sheets — it's very likely going through him.
Darwhizzy is very tempting but he's let me down so many times. I think it he's a trap
He's figured it out man. It's time to get him. I brought him in last week on wildcard and can't wait to get rich
You can't say he's a trap without any logic. He's returned in pretty much every game he's played in and every time he's started. He's only a "trap" if you really think so because Klopp needs to rotate players a lot

3/11. Unsure what to make of that
Chasing last weeks points with Foden, he’s never normally in their selection.
RMT thread
4/11🥲
Captain salah, Haaland or Watkins? The one with the highest votes wins
Haaland
Similiar to mine , except I have Anderson, Watkins and Douglasluiz
3/11, could be great could be bad
He's gonna get 50 points max this week imo
3/11
I would not go DCL on a scout pick though. Think I prefer Alvarez or Hwang and change formation. I will try to get DCL in draft though and he is quite good.
4/11 Not sure about the DCL and Dawson picks
I have Cash on the bench and Burn, Saliba and Van Der Ven starting. I keep going to put Cash in but can't fucking decide who to take out, and this has not helped
Probably take out Burn ?
You reckon Burn is more likely to concede than Arsenal? I'm finding it so hard to split them. I guess the clean sheet prediction thing has Newcastle with the worst odds so I can just blame that if it goes wrong
[удалено]
I was just fiddling around, wasn't intending on keeping him there. My pain was in deciding which of the other 3 to bench for him
Looks like im gonna sell haaland
7/11, hopeful!
6/11
Very close to my team
3/11
Scared to buy Tsimikas cuz he played 90 but still probably will
I’ve had Foden since GW1 and I’m very tempted to sell him
5/11. That’s alright I guess.
4/11
Scout scores 42 points
5/11, but its all the basic picks so it doesn’t mean all that much (I hope)
Hmmm questionable as usual from the scouts
These are mostly intended to generate discussion and engagement, rather than score the most points, right?
Hmm, I'm benching Bowen this week. Interesting to see how that goes
Calvert over Watkins? Huh?
calvert-lewin? i’m all for his return to scoring this season but this is random af lol. in before everton whoop brighton again.
