This is your 3️⃣0️⃣-minute warning before The Scout's Q&A! ⏳

Keep sending your questions!
Ready? The Scout is taking over until 12:00 GMT to solve your #FPL dilemmas...
For many this is the most difficult dilemma heading into Gameweek 17!

It depends on what you look for in a premium midfielder. Salah has had more shots from inside the box (39 v 9) but De Bruyne is the leader for big chances created (15 v 3)

Both Arsenal midfielders are on 77 points and come at a similar price

Martinelli has a much wider ownership, enabling Odegaard’s success to go under the radar. Going forward, I’d still edge towards Martinelli but neither are a bad choice

The quality and quantity of upcoming fixtures favours Mount, with a Double Gameweek 19

Yet Saka is having a better season, with 11 goal involvements compared to Mount’s five. They have equal appeal

You can never be too sure but this trio is usually deemed safe for starts. Cancelo and Ederson have started all 14 matches, with De Bruyne and Rodri next on 13

Arsenal lead the #PL, so perhaps there’s no time for Guardiola to rest star players

With Jesus injured, it opens the door for Nketiah after his great end to last season

But Arteta has mentioned possibly using Martinelli up front. A fully-fit Martial has a great fixture run that edges him ahead of Nketiah after Ronaldo's departure

It's hard to imagine Alvarez will return from the FIFA World Cup as a definite starter, he’ll still be a part of Guardiola’s squad rotations

With Haaland, Silva, Foden and co. around, his game time is too unstable to be a long-term option

Kepa could be a great option at £4.5m, Chelsea are about to face AFC Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest before Double Gameweek 19

Ederson is a way to save £2.0m on Cancelo whilst avoiding rotation risks, and De Gea is a route into Man Utd’s good fixtures

You must have incredible team value to consider having all four!

Whilst having three of them is feasible now that Alexander-Arnold and Robertson have lost popularity, all four would require too much sacrifice elsewhere

As good as Chelsea’s upcoming fixtures are – which includes Double Gameweek 19 – there’s just no value in Sterling

He’s only started four of the last seven #PL matches, rotation is an issue under Potter. Mount is a good option I think

Diaz and Jota's injuries make Nunez very difficult to ignore

Mitrovic has nine goals, penalty duties, a nice price and an upcoming Double Gameweek

Martial currently has little competition at Man Utd, although that could change in January

Three of the four most-expensive defenders belong to Liverpool, yet they’re the third-worst for conceding big chances

The chance to have Alexander-Arnold or Robertson at low ownership is appealing with their attacking threat, but they are expensive

It depends how much faith you have in Walker starting most matches, he began the season’s first six but when he was injured Stones and Akanji stepped in at right-back effectively

Maybe your squad has enough depth to cope with the occasional rotation?

With seven and six goals respectively, both Maddison and Zaha had great first halves of the season

Perhaps Zaha to begin with for the early meetings with Fulham and AFC Bournemouth, and after that Maddison and Leicester's fixtures look kinder

If you’re unsure about Martial’s game time in the long-term, with Mitrovic one card away from suspension, Adams is a very interesting option at their price point

Adams has scored three times in Jones’ two matches in charge of Southampton

And that's all from The Scout! Are you feeling better about Gameweek 17 now? 😉

Remember, you've got unlimited transfers until the deadline on Monday at 11:00 GMT. Use them wisely!

The Scout has suggested the following squad for you to kickstart the Second Chance league with 👇
Goalkeepers 🧤

Danny Ward (£4.1m) has scored 52 points in the last eight Gameweeks which ranks top among goalkeepers

Defenders 🚫

Joao Cancelo (£7.4m) boasts major potential for returns at both ends of the pitch

Kieran Trippier (£5.9m) has been a star so far this season and has a 22-point lead atop the defender standings

Struggling to pick a team featuring Mo Salah, Erling Haaland and premium defenders within your £100m budget? 😠

The Scout presents a template squad with depth in all positions 😍

🧵 #FPL THREAD 🧵
🧤 Goalkeepers 🧤

Wolves' Jose Sa (£5.0m) was the fourth top-scoring 'keeper last season, with 146 points

Pairing him with his understudy, Matija Sarkic (£4.0m), allows you to profit from their kind opening schedule
⛔️ Defenders ⛔️

Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.5m) and Joao Cancelo (£7.0m) were the top-scoring defenders in 2021/22

Oleksandr Zinchenko (£5.0m) looks set to become key for Arsenal, he is an option at left-back or in midfield
