The ScoutCast – Episode Ninety – Subtle

2,760 Comments
Share

Maybe I underestimated Granville. Maybe his throwaway comment made at 10.32 on a weary Wednesday evening wasn’t throwaway at all. Maybe Granville is a Fantasy football mind games genius.

Regardless of whether his plan was pre-meditated and devious, it certainly worked as you’ll find out in this, episode ninety of the ScoutCast.

Aside from my sidekick’s scheming, we give dear old Leighton another rinse following his twanged hamstring, tackle the template midfield yet again, check on the market movements in “all aboard” and, of course, look forward to the weekend action. We also start spending points on the ScoutCast team: it’s the slippery slope. Where’s Granville’s genius when you need it?

Reveal the evil plan via this link or simply stream this latest episode on the player below…

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Hi guys,

    need to make the transfers before Bale and Suarez go up tonight.

    Which way do you think i should go? Baines and Crouch to Wisdom (or alternate 4.5 or below def) and Suarez for a hit or Mata to Bale?

    Any rumors as to a potential row between Mancini and Tevez? Do we really think he was just rested / rotated or is it possible that there are more serious issues, again?

    Have to decide whether to ship Tevez for Suarez before the price changes tonight for a hit.

          Only on here and a couple of podcasts, ESPN and Guardian have both suggested something has gone on. I believe Talk Sport also suggested the same but the fact no one knows for sure suggests it might just be mancini giving ballotelli a few games.

          wouldnt read too much into bust up rumours, mancini just like to rotate, tevez to suarez is a no brainer imo. at least you wont have to worry over suarez starting every game

    What would you do with this team ? 0m in the bank -

    Begovic (Cerny)
    Cameron – Baines – Garrido (Demel, Gorkks)
    Silva – Bale – Mata – Fellaini (Sterling)
    RVP (c) – Suarez (vc) – Berbatov

    (A) Baines to Nastasic/Enrique
    (B) Cameron to Cuellar
    (C) Mata to Walcott
    (D) Save
    (E) Other?

    Still think ditching Mata could be a mistake and I’d probably want to bring Baines back in later but would obviously lose value in buyback price.

    Ruddy to Rudd and Tev to Suarez for a hit?

    will leave me with nothing in the bank, therefore have to do it for a hit due to price rise/falls

    TEAM LOCKED:

    Szczesny (SWA)

    Enrique (SOT) Cameron (wba) Nelsen (AVL)

    Hazard (whm) Fellaini (mci) Bale (ful) Walters (wba)

    RVP (rdg) Ba (WIG) Fletcher (nor)

    only 4 players playing at home.. but I like seeing oppositions the likes of AVL, RDG, WBA, NOR, WIG, WHM.

    thinking of a 8 point hit (sadface) for this

    Baines -> Enrique
    Sagna -> Gibbs
    Tevez -> Suarez

    might work out ok over the next few weeks, what do we think?
