Scout The Gameweek: Episode 1 (2021/22) - FPL Reactions

Joe and Seb are joined by Karam to look at the key issues facing Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of Gameweek 23. Just two hours before our Scoutcast trio were due to start this latest episode, dramatic news broke concerning the upcoming schedule. As predicted by eagle eye Detective Karam earlier in the week, Manchester City and Everton both have two fixtures in Gameweek 24. And there’s more. Burnley and Fulham also play twice that week, then Leeds and Southampton have a brace of matches in Gameweek 25. In this hastily revamped Double Gameweek special Scoutcast, Joe, Seb and Karam try to make sense of the latest developments and how it impacts on their strategy for the remainder of the campaign. This is particularly in the context of Gameweek 26, when further extra fixtures are due to be scheduled, and Gameweek 29, when the FA Cup is set to lead to blank fixtures for a handful of teams. Seb takes the strain regarding Double Gameweek strategy, while Karam moves the discussion along to help Fantasy Premier League managers pinpoint the best players to pick. Whether a Gameweek has the regulation ten fixtures or more, the same rule applies – make sure the best player is captained. Joe takes a look at how FPL managers can, perhaps, better choose their armband contenders. This includes a deep dive into the Fantasy Football Scout members area to look at favourable match ups, such as when aerial threat specialists meet teams that concede from headers regularly. There’s some smooth bench points to look at in our round up of Gameweek 22 and Gameweek 23’s transfer and captaincy plans are revealed. This latest episode of the Scoutcast was first beamed live via our YouTube channel during the final match of Gameweek 22 on Thursday night; Chelsea’s encounter with Tottenham and Spurs star man Heung-Min Son (£9.7m)’s audition for a place in our squads when he meets West Brom this weekend. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Try Football Index - https://bit.ly/FootballIndexFPL 18+ https://www.begambleaware.org/ Full T&Cs - http://trade.footballindex.co.uk/moneybackguarantee ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🏆 Want to improve your FPL Rank?

Joe and Seb are joined by FPL Surgery's Josh to look at the key issues facing Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of Gameweek 22. With Harry Kane (£11.1m), Jamie Vardy (£10m) and Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8) out through injury FantasyPremier League managers have plenty of cash in the bank. But with template assets such as Heung-Min Son (£9.7m) failing to find the net and Manchester City players continuing to succumb to rotation, should FPL managers be considering less well owned, cheaper picks? During the show Joe and Seb’s guest Josh takes his turn to pick a differential and widens the discussion out to include a range of low owned gems. Doubling up on assets and targeting unfashionable players with points potential is among the advice offered by Joe, while Seb wonders whether FPL managers need to change their attitude to home and away difficulty to gain an edge. Quickly spotting and avoiding well owned assets that are failing to deliver is another strong tactic. Our trio ponder the merits of swerving Spurs attacker Son, who badly needs his strike partner and key creator Kane to support him. Manchester City are surprisingly offering value in players such as John Stones. (£5.2m) But which of their stars will play each week? The crew assess the minutes over the last ten matches to find out who Pep Guardiola is most likely to put in the starting XI each week. Partrick Bamford (£6.6m)  takes centre stage as Joe, Seb and Josh analyse their eventful Gameweek 21. They also focus on an incredible set of unfortunate circumstances to hit one wildcarding member of the FPL community, in their look back at the previous week. Fixtures over the next month are frisked and Gameweek 22’s transfer and captaincy plans finish off the show. Plus, in this latest show we find out the full story behind Seb’s youthful picture that accompanied the announcement of his additional role as an FFScout Pro-Pundit. Joe and Seb will be back this Thursday night, when the Scoutcast is next live streamed on Youtube. This time they will be joined by Karam, who this week has unearthing some exciting news about a possible double Gameweek on the horizon for his side Manchester City. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Try Football Index - https://bit.ly/FootballIndexFPL 18+ https://www.begambleaware.org/ Full T&Cs - http://trade.footballindex.co.uk/moneybackguarantee ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🏆 Want to improve your FPL Rank?

Joe and Seb are joined by Ted to look at the key issues facing Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of Gameweek 21. This latest Scoutcast episode proved a rollercoaster for Joe, Seb and their guest Ted, taking place during Thursday night’s eventful Gameweek 20 clash between Tottenham and Liverpool. With Heung-Min Son (£9.8m) and Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) goals ruled out, a haul for Sadio Mane (£11.8m) and an injury, possibly for weeks, to Harry Kane (£11.3m), there was plenty for our trio to mull over. As the only Mane owner of the three, Joe struggled to contain his excitement in particular. But where now for the Gameweek 21 captaincy, especially as Kane had been penciled in by many FPL managers to receive the armband ahead of Spurs encounter with Brighton? Everton’s returning assets could be the answer. Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£7.6m), Lucas Digne (£6.0) and James Rodriguez (£7.7m) are among Toffees stars to return from injury ahead of a kind run of games. Ted’s already tripled up on Carlo Ancelloti’s troops and Joe and Seb are keen to invest too. A key factor in Ted’s bold move has been his analysis from his statistical graphs over recent matches. Armed with a quintet of graphical delights he takes the Scoutcast team through his latest thoughts on chance creation to clean sheet probability. His charts also help him to pick a differential, following some recent successes for the show, thanks to West Ham and Manchester City’s low owned gems. Seb has some intriguing thoughts on attacking defenders, especially with new management and tactics at Chelsea. Meanwhile, the crew reveal their transfers and fresh captaincy thoughts ahead Gameweek 21 as well as consider the latest high-fliers on the fixture ticker. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Try Football Index - https://bit.ly/FootballIndexFPL 18+ https://www.begambleaware.org/ Full T&Cs - http://trade.footballindex.co.uk/moneybackguarantee ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🏆 Want to improve your FPL Rank?
