The ScoutCast – Episode 144 – Squeaky

3,664 Comments
Share

It’s “squeaky bum time” in the ScoutCast studio as Granville continues to chip away at my previously “unassailable” mini-league lead. My co-host stumbled through an injury-strewn Gameweek 12 with the honours, leaving me trailing and worrying that he’ll have clawed it all back by Christmas.

Pressing on, we flog the Hazard vs Fabregas debate once again and run the rule over a cast of budget strikers, desperately searching for the optimum way to spend the two transfers burning holes in our pockets.

We asses the week’s transfer bandwagons, look ahead to Gameweek 13 and take time out to tease Jonty on his Di Maria u-turn. We then combine “powers” to terrifying effect and prepare the ScoutCast XI for their Fantasy Football Scout Cup qualifying round, having flexed its muscles to the tune of a 59-point Gameweek 12. Intimidating stuff.

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

      I guess players will leave at least a couple of days to a week early to meet up with their national team squads to prepare.

    Sanchez Haz Tadic Lamela
    Costa Pelle Austin
    Subs: Hamer Bertrand Marney Moore
    +1.6m, 2 FTs

    Sitting at around 18k despite having Lamela in my team all season...think I'll keep him one more week.
    Planned moves are Tadic + Pelle to Siggy + Rooney.

      Thanks all. I do like the front 7. Have tinkered with getting Eriksen in there form either Siggy or ADM but in the end I think I will stick with them. I also agree the defence needs a re-jig and I think downgrading Clichy is the way to do it (perhaps aiming for something like Taylor - Collins - Hutton - Trippier - Yun... I'll keep working on it).

    Hi friends, a little help could be really useful. OR 66k and trying to move up. Here is my team and the following are the options:

    Krul (Foster)
    Baines // Gibbs // N Taylor (Yun // Hutton)
    Fabregas // Eriksen // Sigurdsson // Downing (Arfield)
    Aguero (VC) // Costa (C) // Pelle

    1FT and 1.8m itb

    A) Pelle ==> (9.8m) Bony / Austin
    B) Eriksen + Arfield ==> (14.6m) AdM + Ameobi - 4pt
    C) Pelle + Arfield ==> (14.8m) Rooney + Ameobi - 4pt
    D) Pelle + Eriksen ==> (17.6m) Austin + Sanchez -4pt
    E) Arfield ==> (6.8m) Chamberlain
    F) Save the transfer
    G) Something else...

    Morning. Anyone know the answer to this ? How do 2 yellow cards (=ing a red) count under the totting up rules ? Example :

    Player has 3 yellows from previous matches. He then gets sent off for 2 yellows :
    a) after the 1 match ban for the red, how many yellows does he now have under the totting up rules ?
    and
    b) as & when he does reach the limit, how long is the ban ( 1 match or 2 - cos he's already had a red previously - e.g. Kyle Naughton)

    Current defense...

    Heaton Foster

    Baines Clyne Bertrand Naylor Moore

    If Martinez doesn't say Baines is 101% I'm selling. This is no time of the season to be dealing with a hammy and I feel like a mug for not selling him last week.

    Who to come in though? Coleman doesn't seem the best bet with his injury history. Azpi a decent bet but I'm tempted to bring Hutton in and then assess what to do with all that cash.

              Def not further up the pitch than Rooney. Wilson's got the energy to at least try and get into the game. RVP has looked so so lethargic in recent games. Like playing with 10 men.

                Yup. Wilson shouldn't be starting unless it's from wide though. Falcao and Rooney for those two central spots or push Herrera up into the hole.
