The ScoutCast – Episode Eighty Eight – The Manchurian

Granville may well be exotic but he’s not Manchurian, despite what the spellcheck told me a few weeks back. He’s also a happy man. Winning on all fronts, he’s dishing out “one helluva beating” to yours truly right now.

Reveling in his position of power, the Hungarian Mancunian brings me to task on my jerky knee transfers, with the regular ScoutCast favourites scattered around that particular discussion.

Need some serious help with my midfield guys

begovic (mannone)
rafael baines demel davies cueller
pienaar nasri michu morrison cazorla
rvp ba berba

have 1FT and 0.7m in the bank. So here are my options:
A: pienaar and nasri >>> fellaini + sterling + 4 points….sterling is good value but i think nasri might have a good game against villa

B: pienaar + morrison >>> fellaini + sterling + 4 points

C: ba + cazorla >>> giroud + mata….ba has potential but giroud is having good stats

D: nasri + michu >> silva/mata + sterling + 4 points

E: save the transfer

Basically confused on whether to bring in fellaini or not…great form but is he worth a hit to bring in a hit and with 4 yellows? also, which midfielder should i get rid of (along with nasri)

interesting how far ahead RVP is in the captain's poll...

norwich is mid-table across all shots conceded categories (and all of RVP's goals have come inside the box so far), whereas berbatov is 2nd amongst forwards in shots inside the box per minute played (and all his goals at home scored from inside the box) and sunderland is far-and-away the worst at conceding shots in the box on the road.

seems a no-brainer to give berba the armband this weekend, should you have him.

  also, 71% of suarez' attempts come inside the box, and wigan have the 3rd least shots inside the box conceded away from home.
  
  suarez currently #2 in captain poll.
  
  seems that most are voting with heart rather than head on this one...

      with hernandez being suggested as starting, tho, decent chance that he and rooney start (he and rvp don't fit together as well due to similar preferred positions) and rvp comes on as late sub.
      
      plenty of reason to think this might not be the week to captain rvp.
      
      sure someone will bookmark this and mention it when rvp starts and grabs a hattrick, but still...

  Smeone posted a stat yesterday... Giroud has nearly exactly the same points as suarez over the last 5 GWs!
  
  Yet in that timeframe suarez has risen by 0.6m, whilst giroud's price hasnt changed... And he's also 1.6m cheaper, and playing in a side that creates approximately 17 billion more chances per game than suarez...
  
  The more ithi k aout giroud the more he looks like a great buy, going to watch him vs. Spurs before taking theplungetough, justin case. He is still new to the league after all.

  Not really. Only Walcott bothers me but there always seems to be a question mark against his name.
  
  On saying that, I found it tough to boot Cazorla this week but like I sais last week, Berbatov is a real bargain at 7 mill, so he became my priority.
  
  I've bought back Michu but I've comforted myself that he could easily surpass the 15 goals he scored in La Liga last year.

  i personally like both those moves, but 2 weeks later.
  
  both jelly and ba have great fixtures the next 2 weeks. they could both score pretty well in those games, so you might well still have enough cash to do the moves in 2 weeks.
  
  saying that, i brought in berba for jelly last weekend, but while also bringing in fellaini to keep everton coverage.

My team right now

Bego
Baines Rafael Cameron Demel Sagna
Mata Fellaini Bale Sterling Puncheon
RVP Berbagol Ba

Thinking of doing these 3 moves
1. Sagna -> Cuellar. Both got decent fixtures but Cuellar seems more likely to get CS
2. Ba -> Suarez. One is kinda injured and one is firing.
3. Bale -> Silva. It's Silva..

Is it worth it? Which ones should I prioritize?

The thing with Suarez is that he ALWAYS get 2pt game everytime I transfer him in.
And when I'm sick of him and transfer him out he got a streak of 9 pointers in 3 consecutive weeks!

Same with Aguero, just swapped him for RVP last week and he got a 9pts and RVP only 5.

        There should be room for him to break the offisde trap of AVBs relatively high defensive line, and he was the furthest player forward last game. Just worried about Cazorla having played almost every minute this season and had the Panama flight, seems like the right time.

Everyone seems to concur that manu is a must cover for its coming easy fixtures.
And everyone seems to agree that theres imminent rotation risk at attacking since Hernandez is on form, opportunity to rest rvp , mr rooney is so-so & oh macheda who.
Why not Welbeck?
Kinda have strong feeling that welbeck could be permanent this run to whoever his partner is. Is he not rooney lovers?

  Did SAF tell you he is going to rotate RVP and Rooney did he? or do you just not have RVP?

    RVP owners don't have anything to fear really. He won't be rested more than a couple of times between now and the end of the season.

    I have rvp. But theres a voice keep saying that why would waste rvp energy. Haha.
    For maintaining sake, for rvp gametime to keep horse runtime, saf can still play him in the last 20 minutes when manu already bag goals from prior strikers. Imo.

  welbeck isn't nailed on. atm it seems that hernadez is more nailed on than welbeck.... both are big risks. if you are willing, by all means take a punt. it could pay off nicely or it could end horribly. just remember by getting hernadez or welbeck that's using up a forward spot that could be occupied by suarez, tevez, berb, ba, etc.

Begovic
Rafael - Nelsen - Baines
Cazorla - Mata - Fellaini - Maloney
Berbs - Tevez - RVP

Subs - Foster, Sterling, Clyne, Cuellar

I've switched Maloney & Sterling a handful of times already since the GW began & still can't make up my mind, I really think Wigan can get something out of the game - other than that I'm quietly confident this week. I finally got Fellaini in after being far too slow aboard the bandwagon, what is the general consensus on him picking up his 5th yellow - will the majority of ill-advised managers drop him for the ban hence lowering his price?

  Dont think so. Similar case to hazard earlier this season. Majority will keep imo.

  Once Fellani gets that 5th yellow and the red flag appears next to his name he will dropped by many, mainly those who dont follow the game as much as us. IMO he would drop .2 in which ever week that occurs.
  
  Get Sterling

    That's what I'm hoping, straight switch to the likes of Nolan, Michu, HBA etc and re-acquire at the lowered price. Liverpool's team threat going forward worries me even if Sterling is being used as a 2nd striker at times - Wigan worry me in general, never know what side is going to turn up.

      I just think that Liverpool have the fixtures and Sterling is being used a forward really. Also means i can ignore that buck-toothed, diving, racist, cheating abortion of a human being who plays up front for them

        not sure... i went maloney cuz he's cheaper and on fk's and ck's and pens i believe. went through the same decision and many on here told me they wouldda gone sterling if i'd gotten him earlier but for current prices maloney was better value..

        True. I got him for 4.5 so i still class him as that bracketed price player. To get on him now, then the choice would be more difficult

Analyzing Everton's next two fixtures: reading Norwich then Arsenal

Can't help but think Moyes will instruct Afro to get a soft yellow Vs reading so he can sit out Norwich and be available against Arsenal. Just a logical analysis .

  I'm starting Demel, he's got the best match and I don't think he'll get another 1-point cameo if he doesn't start. Best CS chance. Saylor first on bench. Unless you fancy attacking returns for Sagna.

  Don't think Demel will start. 2 Clean sheets out the last 2 games against Man City and Newcastle. I doubt Allardyce will change things.

  Same front line and I'm doing the same as you. Mutual back slapping if this strike force comes good again this weekend. Strangely this trio was the scout picks last week but now there are 2 "essential" strikers to replace them. Let's hope we reap the benefits of not kneejerking them out yet.
