The ScoutCast – Episode 123 – Ghost

The title summons up imagery of Granville straddling me at the Potter’s wheel, lovingly helping to craft a clay creation as we unite to sculpt out a Van Persie bust – in true Lionel Ritchie’s “Hello” style.

That’s probably lost approximately half of our potential audience who are too young to recall the analogy. The other half are likely to be repelled by the image of Granville and I caught in a Swayze/Moore-like clinch.

If you’re part of the minority still sticking around, curious to hear how the above nonsense translates into a podcast, then listen up. You’ll catch the plenty of Wildcard ribbing, a tale of captain calamity exposed by this week’s community questions and the usual array of regulars.

    Best pairing long term? Cheers

    A) Yaya and Kolarov

    B) Silva and Coleman.

    Who still doesn't own Mata...

    Rising again before the deadline 😡

    Kinda annoyed he's risen from 9.4 > 9.7 and has only scored 6pts.....

    Quick vote over your favoured front 8...

    Hazard Mata Silva Mirallas Noone (will Utd score enough goals to justify this approach?)
    RVP Suarez JRod

    Hazard Mata Lallana Mirallas AJ (who would you bench?)
    Suarez Sturridge Benteke (or maybe with Giroud instead?)

    Both allow an easy switch back to Aguero with 1 and 2 FTs respectively...

    Thanks

        I like a mixture of both that you suggested...

        Haz - Mata - Silva - Mirallas/Lallana/AJ - Noone(bench fodder)
        Suarez - Sturridge/Ade - Benteke?

      I wouldn't want to be in a position where Rvp hits form and you swap him out for Kun's DGW.

      I honestly can't see how we will be able to afford Rooney/Rvp + Kun. For most it will be Silva/Yaya + Mata and Kun.

      Good questions Zep. Like your good self I and many others are playing with these options.

      At the moment I am going big in midfield with RVP up top. However my defence is very light and prone to rotation. So I think I'll be forced into a better balance. With so many decent £7m mids in form I think will help.

      PS. I like your last option best. Rotate AJ or cheaper with J.Rod.
      Or AJ > Noone after HUL and J.Rod > Ade??

    Boruc
    Terry/Kos/Ward
    Haz/Whits/Silva/Erik
    Ade/Kun*/Suarez + 0.8

    Manonne/Chester*/Coleman*/Ki

    Who's on your shopping list?

    I've been looking into the defense crystal ball, here's mine
    - the second best City defender (kompany just costs too much - their schedule looks inviting)
    - 1 WHU defender (either a healthy Reid or Lescott on loan)
    - Jagielka

    I feel like my mid/fwd situation is ok for now, and defense has been ok, but the schedules aren't as hot as they were (think Bardsley, Mert, Ward) 3 weeks ago.

          Yep, the second team will leave you with no City attackers which is a big risk with their goalscoring rate. Yaya and Studge will give you consistency, RVP and Eriksen is more of a punt but could come off massively!

      I must say Jins you have come up with 99 possibilities on how to transfer out Aguero. Touche.

      I like B. The strikers is a toss up though, I would personally go for Adebayor.

        🙂 I think this is my shortlist - issue with B is it means I'm still stuck with Kim (not ideal for the upcoming blanks). Current favourite is C with Mirallas, then A with Santi.....

      Those fixtures look pretty similar to me.

      I'm very tempted with Tekkers (see above)
