The ScoutCast Episode 149 – Rushed

With gremlins in the machine, the clock was ticking on this week’s ScoutCast as Granville and I are hurried into service.

Displaying all the urgency and determination of Ade Akinfenwa at the end of season buffet, we waste no time in driving through the ScoutCast regulars, whilst weighing the merits of when to swoop for a certain “essential” Argentine.

While this week’s low fat episode may come as a treat for some, we’re working towards a return to the full fat, high cholesterol live Hangout from next week. Keep ‘em peeled for news on that.

For now, grab this rapid recording via this link or stream the swiftness via the player below…

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

      Damn right.

      Thanks for the work as usual chaps - convinced me to take a punt on Spurs... backfire imminent.

    Struggling with this...For one/possibly two weeks

    A) Downing (HULL/liv)

    B) Chadli (SUN/wba)

    C) Puncheon (bur/EVE)

    1. Point Magnets
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Chadli by a mile

      1. Villan
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Even against two decent defences?

    2. Robben Mee Blind
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Downing for me- him and Carroll have a point to prove at Anfield. Can smell Mignolet's fear already! (and I'm a red!)

      1. Villan
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Good point. He's my favourite atm

        1. Robben Mee Blind
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          I'm seriously considering giving him the armband this week

          1. Villan
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Wow...that is a gamble to far for me! Good luck!

            1. Robben Mee Blind
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Cheers. If I go for it and also stick to my guns about not getting Aguero in yet, this game week could go spectacularly badly for me!

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years

      lol Puncheon for me 😀

      seriously

      1. Villan
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        His stats are great for the last game...interesting

    Best Midfielder for a 2 week pre-wildcard punt?

    7.2m max

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. trisonetwo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      chadli?

    2. A.T
      • 13 Years

      Chadli

      1. Villan
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Even against two strong defences?

    4. Villan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Failed below....

      I'm asking the same question above!

      It's out of Downing, Chadli and Puncheon for me.

      Chadli has SUN (good away defensively) and wba (Pulis).

      Puncheon has bur/EVE (both leaky defences and new manager syndrome)

      Downing has HULL (dire atm) and liv (Hammers and Downing are better away plus pool can't defend).

      I'm edging towards Downing but really considering a punt on Puncheon.

      You??

  8. Cojiro
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Play 1: Siggy (CHE), Boyd (CRY)

    Play 1: Wisdom (eve), Hutton (LIV), Wasi (STO)

    1. Leeroy Jenkyns
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Bench Siggy, maybe Hutton over Wasil.

  9. trisonetwo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    hmm wildcard is looking pretty sound, chadi and baines/azpi/clichy or tadic and clichy/azpi?

    leaning towards chadli and baines..

  10. RubeRx

        1. Vardy Gras PBFC
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          But if you play him on purpose he only gets 2 pts?

          Siggy or Boyd?

    3. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Arnautovic could be a punt.

      1. thischarmingman
        • 12 Years

        I just got in Baines (again! whats up with that) for a punt, if that helps.

        1. Jonny Bananas
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

    5. Bojaninho
      • 14 Years

      Seems Baines is winning, If he has a good week I'm going to consider keeping him aren't I haha

      uzmi cresswella i to je..i kako bese ime? u ligi si mojoj, tako? 😀

  14. mads32
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    I just thought about benching Sanchez to play Moses. Am I insane?

    1. Bojaninho
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Yes.....yes you are

    2. Every Dog Has Its Day

      😆

    3. IndyStarJack
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Highly considering benching Sanchez

  15. A.T
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Did I hear talk of Bertrand playing centre half or is it all in my mind?

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Played as part of a back three in the FA cup.

    2. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Played in a back 3 to counter mighty ITFCs 2 strikers. Neednt have bothered.

      Clyne and Tagget played WBs.

      Hoping 3-5-2 doesnt become a feature as planing to get Bertrand.

    3. A.T
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Blimey o Riley. Thanks Gents.

  16. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Should I get ADM in for Silva, or monitor ADM against QPR.

    1. LOCO ABREU
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      monitor

    2. Farcelona
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'd say risk going for it, Silva won't be as effective FPL-wise with Aguero back.

  17. Captain Shirokov
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Ah, the smugcast. 😉

    Dirty confession, only listened to one or two of these this season.

  18. Villan
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I'm asking the same question above!

    It's out of Downing, Chadli and Puncheon for me.

    Chadli has SUN (good away defensively) and wba (Pulis).

    Puncheon has bur/EVE (both leaky defences and new manager syndrome)

    Downing has HULL (dire atm) and liv (Hammers and Downing are better away plus pool can't defend).

    I'm edging towards Downing but really considering a punt on Puncheon.

    You??

    1. Villan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      fail to royals forever

    2. Dušan Citizen
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      same

    3. Vardy Gras PBFC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I may go Puncheon, just to put extra money into my defence and keep Siggy on the bench for two weeks. Have Downing and Chadli, one will have to make way for Punch (on WC).

      Burnley not too leaky at home though?

      1. Villan
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        No not that leaky but only 3 goals off the worst (EVE,SUN,WBA).

        Downing assisted against both Hull and Pool last time round.

        Tricky one as I think Puncheon could be the most explosive potentially out of the three

        1. Vardy Gras PBFC
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Cheers for that info, maybe it's Chadli who makes way then.

          Just hope the Chelsea game was a one-off.

  19. Every Dog Has Its Day
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        • 14 Years

        Cheers CS, I'm not sold on it though, am I right to ditch Costa?

        1. Captain Shirokov
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Well I mean Cesc has more or less the same output and can actually gets baps. For 1.5m less or whatever too.

          Although I can see the merits to each side. There really is no right or wrong answer right now.

  21. Dušan Citizen

    I still haven't heard any scoutcast 🙂 Boring.

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      How can you say it's boring if you haven't listened to one? 😆

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Let it few times for a few seconds. Got bored immidiately or whatever u write it :3

        1. Captain Shirokov
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          There are a few boring parts but it's funny when Mark has a much better week that Granville or vice versa.

    dangerous business, making fun of akinfenwa. i just read his wiki page and his first team was called atlantas. a city of the same name sank under the waves in the recent past. coincidence? indubitably. and myth. and possibly folk memory.. but whatever.
