The ScoutCast – Episode Seventy Six – Preparation D

Hitting the airwaves early this week, the ScoutCast makes a return to the fray with preparations for the double fixtures still using up our headspace. Mark and I rinse through the latest permutations of Gameweek 36, almost exhausted by the tactical nuances on offer. It’s almost too much for a Tuesday afternoon.

Of course, the podcast regulars rear their head and I do my upmost to keep my chin up despite the mini-league gap: Mark tries desperately not to gloat and fails as always. You never know – maybe all those eggs he’s put in the basket of Gameweek 36 are destined to be scrambled.

    I am 55 points behind my Scottish brother in law. I MUST NOT LOSE! what is the best move for me this week?

    a) Rooney out for Cisse
    (my rival doesn’t have Cisse and may get in a City player)

    b) Rooney out for Cisse and Surman out for Dempsey -4pts.
    (My rival has Dempsey though and it would give me a benching dilemma, I would likely have to bench Valencia.)

    c) Save a transfer

    Would really appreciate some help.

          C for me. Pity you can't swap Barndoor for Cisse. I suppose you still can if you think the two heavy hitters upfront are needed.

      At this stage you need to gamble. I think there is a decent chance that dempsey could fail, so go for someone else instead.

      So a). But get a city striker too!!

            If I get him he certainly will be. However I still think RVP can turn it around maybe with 1 goal against Chelsea.

        Not "suddenly". I was doubling up with Cech & Terry anyways. Don't see a better option in defence from gw36 - only team with a potential for 3 CS in the last 3 GWs.

        I won't bother arguing if you think they're not worth it though. The reality is out there to see, Newman.

            Meh, if Cech would have been sent off like he was supposed to, and if hadn't been handed yet another goal that didn't go in (second against us in the past year) it would be a whole different game. It is what it is.

              You can make all excuses all you want, but 4-1 is still a drubbing. It isn't as if you were setting Wembley on fire and the ref was extinguishing it over 90 mins.

                We were the far better team in the first half. Had one cleared off the line and one hit the post.

                Take away the phantom goal and reduce you guys to ten men with Cech's foul and its 1-1 with you down a man. I like our odds, there.

                  Been the story in the past 2-3 months for Spurs innit? You don't get points for being the "better team" or "playing beautiful football over a period in the game". It's a pity that you still defend your team so much with all those results, when its so obvious your manager has lost the plot.

                    Hey, don't get me wrong: we're playing poor. Defensively we let in a lot of bad goals and we can't finish good chances at all.

                    But the simple fact is that the ball never crossed the line, and cech should have been sent off. I think its perfectly reasonable to doubt if you would score the other 3 goals when reduced to ten men when you guys were being outplayed.

                    I'm not trying at all to spin how poor we have played lately: but when two big clearly incorrect calls impact the game, that is what happens.

          The reality? Of the defense that let in two against Villa? Or four against Villa before that?

          I totally agree one chelsea defender for the double is a really good idea. As soon as Baines went down I penciled in Cole. I also agree with your 3 CS opinion.

          But doubling, or even tripling is asking a lot. The fixture is good, but chelsea have been very poor defensively all year long. The home games against Blackburn and Newcastle could be games they very well concede. QPR will also, at the very least, be rested, and chelsea has played pretty poor against them this year.

          I just think one game is a little dramatic to start acting like a poor defense is suddenly good.

            "All year long" is hardly an argument when under AVB, we were having such a high line in defense and that moron was so adamant to change his tactics.

            Under RDM, take the home/neutral games:

            Chelsea 1-0 Stoke City
            Chelsea 4-1 Napoli
            Chelsea 5-2 Leicester City (without Terry)
            Chelsea 0-0 Tottenham
            Chelsea 2-1 Benfica
            Chelsea 2-1 Wigan Athletic
            Tottenham 1-5 Chelsea - FA Cup (Semi-finals)
            Chelsea 1-0 Barcelona

              Under RDM you guys are a different beast without a doubt. It could be dangerous to underestimate Chelsea at this stage of the season. RDM is playing for a job and it seems the players are playing for RDM and themselves.

                Yes, it is.

                You can't simply second guess what would have happened if Stoke had all their 11 - they weren't in the game even with 11 except for one poor chance.

                Calling Benfica & Wigan "poor" doesn't justify your argument.

                And yes indeed, without JT we aren't half as good in defence cos Luiz & Cahill are a mess together. Another reason why we conceded 2 goals to Villa.

                Name me ONE team which will concede fewer goals/game in the last 3 GWs.

                  Chelsea were REALLY poor in that Stoke match. I could have totally seen Stoke scoring. All I'm saying with that one is that its not exactly a great cleanie to be proud of.

                  I can totally see Everton conceding less goals. Fixtures are better and they are a more reliable defense. with Arsenal improvement, I could see their reasonably easy last 3 matches yield more cleanies, as well.

      Not sure that's a good idea though. Both QPR and us will be well rested, have no forward players missing and have everything to fight for. You have something to fight for, but have injuries, and will be absolutely knackered. I can't see one clean sheet, never mind two!

        I don't think fitness (over-rated) will be too much of an issue for the defenders. I think we've got the quality and experience to get a CS in every one of those home games. Agree though, the Newcastle game could be tricky but we're going to tough to break apart.

        Not too confident about our attacking returns though, despite the delicious fixtures. It will all be about scraping the points.

          Going to be tough game undoubtedly, but I think RDM will have got his tactics right, after watching the replay of the Wigan game about 5 times. I'm pretty confident we won't give more than 1-2 goals. My main concern is how Torres & co. could cope up at the Emirates. What a pity Drog won't manage 3 games in a week, with the amazing record he has at the Emirates.

    What is the main reason why people are getting Tevez/Aguero for Rvp/Rooney? Is it solely for this gw? Because after gw36, both rooney and rvp should be likely to score more points. Gw 37 is a tough week where it's essential to have rooney and rvp. But then again gw38 sees city face QPR at home.

    I am sure City could thrash Wolves this week, but still can't bring myself to get a player for just one gw and then get rid of him come gw36. Thoughts?

              Bale is just penciled in right now and could become someone else at this point. I just feel the extra game will give me a better shot than making a sideways transfer right now. It would be so easy for city to be 2-0 up then one of Tev or Aguero to come off around the 60 min make in prep for the Darby. Rest or rotation isn't totally off the table also and I just dont need the hassle right now.

      - I see more logic in having a Tevez say for 1GW than keeping him for the season, mainly because he is a rotation threat once the title race is over. As a United fan I would say the title will be wrapped up in GW36.

      - Aguero is worthwhile for the season, nailed on and on penalties. I just prefer RVP or Rooney over him and wouldn't want to waste a trade, I see it as a little sideways so it would make more sense to get a DGWer

      - There is always the potential for rotation or early substitutions in a game like this (wolves) so this added risk and the fact that it ignores the DGW opportunities in GW36 means I won't be tempted to get a City player.

      I think that main reason for most is that we all expect our rivals to get a city player in, and are scared of what will happen if we don't. If he fails, so does your rival.

      I think that city will beat man utd, which will mean the title will go to the wire, so you can keep your city striker until the end if you like

      Also, as a newcastle fan, it will be good to have a city striker to make any loss to city in GW37 easier to bare!!

      As I am have already won my mini-leagues, I'm not chasing any points but it's essential for me to win the h2h this week against Fratboy for the enr's cup.

    Think I'm going against the grain this week and doing Walcott -> Bale.

    Rooney -> Aguero is tempting, but I think I'd rather have an extra DGWer. Walcott -> Bale this week and then Rooney, Turner & Kompany -> Baines, Terry/Cole & Adebayor (4 point hit) in GW36.

    Decent plan?

    Migs, Bogdan
    Kompany, JEvans, Skrtel, Caulker, Turner
    Dempsey, Walcott, Valencia, Sessegnon, Siggy
    RVP, Rooney, P Cisse

      I'm also considering this trade. After watching Walcott vs Wigan I can't imagine him picking himself up for this week, even if it's Chelsea.

      And Bale is due. Waaayyy overdue.

        Exactly. Walcott is looking tired and he's up against arguably the best LB in the league. Add to this Chelsea are on form and he's by no means a shoe in for points. Bale is massively overdue, and QPR can't defend. Reckon he'll comfortably outscore Walcott this week.

    Good thing about Tevez is all my rivals will be buying him (using valuable transfer)
    Also they wont be captaining Cisse which i was worried about as i dont have him

    Meanwhile i will do nothing and save my transfer as i had the forsight to bring in Aguero last week 🙂

                  Like your thinking & very good team. Just not convinced myself that Dempsey is going be a huge scorer with Fixtures, also Cahill may have a rest. If u can get this team with no hits by all means it's a cracker. If u have to take hits i don't think it's worth it cause of the unknowns.

          I do think getting 3 additional DGW's for gw 36(-4 hit) will result in a big fat green arrow. Giving me 8 in total.

          Especially since (c) will be on one of them.

              Some of these double gameweekers will be marginal at best. For example i have Enrique yet sadly he will probably only play one game.
              Also have Miachi who is unlikely to play two

              Then there the likes of Kelly who will also probably do nothing,

                Yes I agree entirely. However at least in my situation I have descent quality DGWers. I will also look to continue getting more in that are quality. The likes of Enrique and Ryo as you've mentioned are certainly not worth hanging onto.

    I asked yest afternoon, but let's try again during the Zef Zone....

    I'm leading ML by 14(2nd place) and 40(3rd place). Second place has 3 DGW's and 3rdplace has 6 DGW's. I have 5 DGW's. All of us have Rooney/Cisse.

    Worth doing Rooney-->Kun for this week only and potentially sacrifice a DGW for 36, ending up with 6 DGW's(no hit) vs rival(40 pts behind) having 8? Only reason why I'm doing it is to push for top 1k(I'm ranked 5.5k)

    Not worth it hey?

      No not worth it for me. Chances are your rivals will get in a city striker as well ruining the differential. For me I think its important to get as many DGWers as possible. At least 7 imo

        Thing is they most certainly won't. 2nd place might(he has allready used his 1 FT to get Cisse in) so if he does its for -4. Second place rival most def won't. He is a manU fan and will Rooney(c). I'm 100% sure. He has never even owned Rvp this season!

        But I agree, I'm not chasing so bugger them. I've fought for a year and the heartache of last year's gw 38 is still fresh in my mind.

        Yes, I'm still (currently) on this decision at the moment. Interestingly Chris Glover's stats (which are obviously only an indicator) have Cisse, Ade and RVP as the three best forwards to have for the last 4 gameweeks (only applies if you had the same forwards for all 4 weeks). Aguero is marginally ahead of Rooney though.

        (Unfortunately these stats rate Pog rather highly, which does indicate the risk in statistical analysis on a small sample size. Probably applies to Cisse a little too, as there's still a smallish sample for him.)

        Should be good for 8 points minimum , Bolton are going to be very fired up and rested , will likely follow he other relegation teams in improving for the run in

        I see 2 2 as the minimum which is 8 points, not a bad floor

        Can see plenty of save points and an outside chance of a clean sheet

      I've got that Nani feeling as well.

      I keep thinking he'll drop Young though, he's got a lot of heat on him from the consecutive diving episodes. If Young is benched than Val will have to play.

      I've shipped Rooney so I'd have no United cover against a pretty average Everton squad.

      I don't think HBA is right for the bench this week, form player at home against Stoke.

      Looking like Valencia I guess.

        The Valencia Rafael partnership is going very well at the moment. So I agree, I think Young will be the one who is rested.

      I could always bench RVP instead?!

      Leave me with Cisse and Carlito up front.

          I know, but it's getting close to the end of the season, time for crazy moves! It's not actually a bad idea..............!

            I still think Valencia should be benched over RVP

      As a United fan I want to see us beat Everton first. To do this we need Nani and Valencia to play.

      As a Utd fan I certainly dont. I want points on the board. It's underestimating teams like Everton (think B'burn & more recently Wigan) that will lose us the championship. We can lose to city and still win the league as long as we dispach everyone else

      Nah, we need Val to play. Everton are a tough cookie to crack and been in good form off late.
      If anything, he can come off early if we've sealed the game.

      Barfa will score more points in one game against STK, than Petrov will in 2. Then he has a double.

    Valencia + 4pts (EVE) or Dempsey (WIG)

      Think Dempsey will still muster enough goal attempts for one or two to count.
