Joe (1:08)

Hello, and welcome to the video and podcast from Fantasy Football Scout. My name is Joe, and today I'm joined by Fantasy Football Scout's Deputy Editor, Tom Freeman, who will be revealing his plans for Game Week 11 Hello, everyone, and welcome, Tom, how are you?

Tom Freeman (1:31)

Hey, Joe. Yeah, I'm OK, thanks. Yeah, a bit of a breather this week, international break before it gets very busy again. But yeah, I'm OK. How are you?

Joe (1:39)

Yeah, good, good. Red arrow. You're going in the other direction with the green arrow there. But I'm wild carding this week, so plans in motion to halt the mini slide there. But yeah, you're absolutely flying this week. So we'll have a look, see how you did in game week 10

And your plans, you still got loads of transfers left, plans for game week 11 We're also going to have a little look at the fixtures, but we're going to look at the best time the free hit is. I've still got mine to play, and you've still got yours to play.

Tom Freeman (2:05)

Yeah.

Joe (2:06)

I think quite a few people have as well. Some have been played, but I think it's the sort of least used of the chips so far, because people don't know really when to use it. So there's some weeks.

Tom Freeman (2:17)

I did have a look earlier, and I think using the top 10k as a gauge, I think 50% have still got it left. Okay. Half have used it, half haven't, which is probably a decent kind of overall number as well.

Joe (2:30)

So good for those half watching, and for the other half as well, see what we're up against as well.

Okay. So let's have a look, see how you got on.

Okay. So 78 points. It's huge. So do you want to run us through your team? They've actually all returned. And I saw on Friday night, I thought, ah, who's got Dewsbury Hall and Barrett? Ah, Tom has. And I hope he played them.

Tom Freeman (2:59)

Yeah. I had a feeling that that game would kind of dictate my game week. If that went badly, it was probably all downhill. But no, they did well. Yeah, it did. Yeah. I rolled the free transfer as well. So I went up to four free transfers. And I got 78 despite a captaincy blank. I know a lot of other people looked at Arsenal Defenders and ESAC this week. I didn't do that. I didn't even have any Brighton outfielders either. But the guys that I did have did perform. So I did have the Bruggening goal who got six points. I had the double Arsenal defence with Konza 8 and Calafiore 6

Then Van Hecht got the Defcon despite conceding he got four. And then that big haul from Muhamovic with 10

In midfield, Palmer and Rodgers both blanked two points each, but Dewsbury Hall did well on the Friday night with nine. And then, yeah, the attack, very good. So Jackson 11, Harlan just four, but then Barry 16, and then just on the bench, Minsky, Sharder, Hall and Stach.

Joe (4:02)

Perfect, really, yeah.

Tom Freeman (4:03)

None of them really did much apart from Hall, who got the Def Con.

Joe (4:06)

I was very delighted that Harry Maguire and Leif Davis combined for minus one on my bench. I didn't play either of them, obviously.
