The ScoutCast – Episode Ninety Four – Resumption
Filed under: Fantasy Football Podcast - Posted by: Mark
Back for 2013, fully refreshed, slightly rusty and balancing the same chips on our shoulders, Granville are I make a return to the podcast studio.
The New Year presents my beleaguered co-host with a 51-point gap to bridge as I spent Christmas “ho-ho-ing” about three midfield hat-tricks, leaving Granville to roll out one mighty miffed in this week’s episode.
Elsewhere, we pick at the double Gameweek buffet, eagerly scoffing on the Chelsea canapés whilst wondering if Rafa has hidden something nasty in the vol-a-vents. We rinse that down with the latest transfers in and out in “all aboard”, preview all the weekend fixtures and carry out the latest emergency surgery on the ailing ScoutCast team.
Normal service is resumed via this link or you can pour this straight into your ears via the player below…

I am a United Fan and i would class United v Liverpool the biggest derby!!!

As a Liverpool fan UTD’s the main one I look out for at the start of the season.

Koflok - like taking hits because not taking hits is too mainstream.. says:
This is frustating
Bench Punch Walcott or Michu
Punch is the weakest but DGW
Walcott simply because Arsenal always do well vs City at Emriates and he’s playing up top
Michu has a tougher fixture as Swans never score vs Everton but they are likely to score 1 goal and Michu gotta be in it.
January 11 at 10:08 am
cylus11 says:
Michu i would

Mucky Little Tiger says:
Same dilema, benching Michu… cue many goals.
January 11 at 10:05 am

Anyone care to take a qualified guess on the % for these playing both games?
Azpilicueta

The Dago says:
Puncheon is causing me a real headache means benching Walcott, anyone else doing the same?
January 11 at 10:07 am
rvp786 says:
glad i aint got that dilemma now thanks to my pal Pogrenyak lol
January 11 at 10:08 am
rvp786 says:
puncheon will get 2pts against chelsea.
so essentially its puncheon vs villa and 2pts vs walcott.
id be tempted to go walcott
January 11 at 10:11 am
The Dago says:
I am but feel a fool not playing a dgw player, when am I ever gonna play him!
January 11 at 10:14 am
rvp786 says:
theres no easy answer really. its 50 50. walcott will probably score max one goal as city will be water tight at the back.
if puncheon plays he gets at least 4pts plus whatever damage he might do.
so safest option is going puncheon as at least he banks 4pts for u
January 11 at 10:16 am
The Dago says:
you are making alot of sense this morning, I think I need some caffeine
January 11 at 10:17 am
rvp786 says:
its cheeky bum time. i was thinking overtime last night in bed lol before i went sleep.
what do you do work wise mate??
January 11 at 10:20 am
The Dago says:
I own a small chain of shoe shops in London. You?
January 11 at 10:23 am
rvp786 says:
got my own online business for last 3 yrs. import from china and sell on ebay/amazon and my own website.
sell safety boots/shoes too. you should sell your stuff online too if your not already. makes a massive difference to your sales with little extra cost
January 11 at 10:26 am
The Dago says:
I import from China too, but ladies fashion footwear. I am building a website this year. Whats the website?
January 11 at 10:18 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
yea and then u find Walcot gets a goal and an assist
January 11 at 10:21 am
The Dago says:
probably.
January 11 at 10:09 am
The Dago says:
ha ha ha hes a great pick for that reason!
January 11 at 10:07 am
█▓▒░ Hanamichi ░▒▓█ says:
It’s even worse for me. I must bench one from Puncheon, Walcott, Silva
January 11 at 10:09 am
rvp786 says:
bench silva
January 11 at 10:09 am
The Dago says:
who are you playing at the back ahead of any of them?
January 11 at 10:15 am
█▓▒░ Hanamichi ░▒▓█ says:
Gibbs Demel Davies (or Luiz)
January 11 at 10:18 am
The Dago says:
sorry I miss read your post, gonna have to be Silva.
January 11 at 10:09 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
i got the same problem so i decided to swap Punchy > Nolan and save him for the next Double and hope Punchy fail
January 11 at 10:10 am
The Dago says:
I have thought about that but I need the spare cash elsewhere in my team.
January 11 at 10:12 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
get cash from ur Def ,, or Noble,Cole are good alternatives though
January 11 at 10:22 am
The Dago says:
noble could work out actually thanks, just didnt ever wanted to see him back in my team.
January 11 at 10:11 am
tommo-uk- says:
That is why i have opted to ignore the Power 5 midfield, as you will always have the dilemma of either dropping 1 of them or playing them all every week and not having any differential.
January 11 at 10:13 am
The Dago says:
well you would choose a bench fodder forward in those circumstances and expect not to really play him unless he had DGW, which Puncheon does.
January 11 at 10:13 am
It's The Kompany That Matas says:
Think I’ve decided on a final team for after the 2 DGWs are done:
Cech | Cerny
Zabaleta | Gibbs | Rafael | Demel | Harte
Mata | Walcott | Michu | Fellaini | Hernandez
RVP | Suarez | Ruiz
Cech’s expensive yes but offers a safe route into the Chelsea defense.
January 11 at 10:14 am
The Dago says:
Cech is injured no?
January 11 at 10:28 am
Marouane Michu says:
lacks a Welsh Left Winger

January 11 at 10:14 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
i dont get it how u peeps can play Punchy and Bench guys like Silva Walcot Michu ,,, i mean even if he’s playing triple
January 11 at 10:18 am
█▓▒░ Hanamichi ░▒▓█ says:
my Midfield this week
Bale Mata Walcott Puncheon Silva (or Fellaini, still dont use FT this week)
1. If I keep Silva, I must bench one from Pun, Silva, Walcott
2. If I bring in Fellaini, I will play him, then bench one out of Pun or Walcott.
any thought?
January 11 at 10:20 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
u r in a tough position !
January 11 at 10:22 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
its close but if it was my team i would bench Punchy ,, plus i would get fella but heard rumors he’s leaving Everton so i’d wait to see things clear
January 11 at 10:23 am
█▓▒░ Hanamichi ░▒▓█ says:
thanks.
January 11 at 10:24 am
█▓▒░ Hanamichi ░▒▓█ says:
But Fellaini got 1 goal 1 assist at Liberty, I’m afraid of he will destroy Swansea this week again
January 11 at 10:27 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
me myself i like Afroman i got him in ma team from Week 1 ,, what about swapin Silva > Fella and Punchy > Nolan / Noble ?
January 11 at 10:29 am
█▓▒░ Hanamichi ░▒▓█ says:
I only have 1 FT, my midfield is fine this week so i dont bring in Nolan fore more headache.
Anyway see you later in new post: http://www.fantasyfootballscou.....r-gunners/
January 11 at 10:23 am
neitherland team 2000 says:
i would bench Walcot if he’s playing on the Wing but after Giroud having troubles i guess he’s playing upfront so more likely the chances he scores
January 11 at 10:20 am
Frank Luiz says:
Finally finalized my team:
Begovic (Jaas)
Gibbs Luiz Baines (Turner Demel)
Walcott Michu Fellaini Mata (Snodgrass)
Ba Berbatov RVP
Who to captain?

WC Team:
Jussi & Begovic

January 12 at 7:22 am
wah1berg says:
Ditch Benteke for Ruiz or Henriquez and improve defence
January 12 at 10:10 am
cbruzon says:
Azpi or cahill and gibbs
OR
Luiz and sagna
HELP PLEASEEEEEEE
January 12 at 4:26 pm
r0binh0 says:
Terry on, Luiz or Ivanovic off please!
January 12 at 4:27 pm
r0binh0 says:
hehe, and Torres on for Ba.
January 13 at 12:15 pm
Mind over Mata says:
Luiz and Ba -> Sagna and Suarez (-4)
Yay/nay
January 13 at 12:19 pm
RamaJama says:
Would say yay, although haven’t decided myself yet to go Ba to Suarez or Podokski for free for next GW. Awaiting to see Sturrige first, might get him in for Ba or Berba if he seems nailed on in the middle.
