The ScoutCast – Episode 142 – Tight

2,769 Comments

There was just a wafer-thin point separating myself and Granville in Gameweek 11, despite my rivals decision to ignore the force of nature that is Alexis Sanchez.

In a svelte but packed episode of the ScoutCast, my co-host and I discuss the Chilean’s “essential” charms and pile praise on the reborn Stewart Downing and the new, reliable Leighton Baines v2.

Around the usual regulars, we drop in on some old favourites, as Aleks Kolarov discovers new methods of running Granville’s Gameweek and I somehow manufacture a way of snuggling under the Van Persie duvet. We also carry on nudging the Harry Kane-wagon, run our teams through the Gargatron computer and go on “Warnock Watch” once more.

Squeeze into this episode out via this link or sample its tautness via the player below…

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

      I'm monitoring the penalty situation too. I have a feeling rooney may be on them now as captain (haven't been any this season). If so he may be worthwhile

        i doubt it as last yr rooney started with penalty but miss too many and gave it to RVP by himself...

              Nah not that, I just meant from a 'team' perspective. That just says 100% for man Utd last season (and rooney took most when RVP was injured)

    Repost.

    Morning all, would really appreciate your help with this decision.

    Fabregas to:

    A. Tadic
    B. Di Maria

    I also have Pelle and Hazard in my team. In a couple of weeks, I'm looking to bring in Bony for Pelle if his form continues and keep Tadic due to his set piece and penalty duties. Going Di Maria means another potential captain option, but tricky to get Costa back in (2 FTs). Bit concerned by Tadic' lack of goal threat but with LEI, avl up next, I quite fancy the double up.

          Expecting something is different, can he score many goals? Except scoring from penalties, he haven't done much tbh... Nor Chelsea is filled with divers, so 1 goal in 3 weeks, dont think thats worth that much investment.

            1 goal in 3 is preferable to 2 assists in 3 though? I'm just not understanding the Fabregas > Hazard argument.

              Hazard is hardly shooting this season. Meanwhile, Cesc is assisting every other goal Chelsea score. Put it this way, Hazard has 1 goal from open play in his last 20 PL matches

                And how many goals does Fabregas have?? And why does open play count in FPL?

                Given their prices (and I have both), I genuinely can't see your point. If anything, Fabregas' assists will drop as Mourinho makes Chelsea tighter at the back and uses Hazard on the counter attack. We've already seen Costa's stats drop.

      No, I don't think so - if he turns out to be this seasons Yaya (for a higher entry fee though) , you'll want him before his value is £11+. I he proves to be a flash in the pan, or at least not worth the high price - easy to downgrade to any other high hitting midfielder. Arsenals trickier fixtures ahead doesn't make it a no-brainer though - but I've brought him in for AdM this week nevertheless (so no I feel scared not owning AdM against CPL 😀 ).

            Everytime i think of something that cools me off Aguero, I think of his stats, QPR's stats and City's attacking stats.

            Aguero + City's attacking stats are leaps and bounds ahead of any other team at the moment - results aside.

    I am playing another FPL game, and have three transfers this GW.

    Plans for this GW is getting rid of lloris, and heaton(my reserve) have a few quite good fixtures coming up.

    I also want to chase the Sanchez points, however he is a forward on this game and that makes it hard because i see both costa and aguero as essentials.

    Last i think i am goingto move Sterling to Yaya, i've held sterling since the start now and he's just not paying off.

    Currently ranked 21st in Ultimate FPL and trying to decide between Aguero, Rooney and Di Maria for captain.. Everyone above me seems to have Aguero and Di Maria but only 1 or 2 Rooney.. Good chance to captain Rooney and hopefully gain some ground?
