The ScoutCast – Episode 157 – Hipsters

Three middle-aged beards collide to talk Fantasy Football. Hipsters? Sadly, as Jonty so rightly points out, we bear a closer resemblance to a trio of David Brents.

A clean-shaven Ryan joins us to complete the quartet and boost the credibility: the Kiwi contributor wakes fresh and ready for action to mull over the Gameweek gone, the week’s transfer bandwagons and to look forward to the weekend’s action.

Around those regulars, we brace ourselves for the latest bout of quizzing from you, the community. We tackle the potential of the Palace form guys and the unlikely contribution from Hull and Leicester, as we cast an early eye on the looming double Gameweek.

The ScoutCast was beamed out live on Wednesday via a Google Hangout and you can view the full video recording on the player below.

Alternatively, for the polished, low-fat audio version can be found via this link or the first player.

Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel and Google Plus page to keep informed of when future ScoutCast hit the screen.

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

    With Gerrard back, do you think Coutinho could outscore Henderson with 4 points over the double?

    Henderson's output with Gerrard on the pitch is horrible!

    1. AleksanderVN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      2,5,3,2,2,2,2 to be precise

      Gerrard may never start again in his Liverpool career.

        9 years, 22 days ago

        I think Gerrard may start QPR and Palace at home, to honor him .
        These are games I want Hendo to play at his best FPL-wise..

    3. NABIL - FPL otai

      If BR has any sense Gerrard should never start again. Unless he's being sentimental.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        This is the point. If there is a more sentimental club than LPool i dont know of it

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          😀

          fwiw DGW34 has no room for sentimentality. GW38 is a different story.

            9 years, 22 days ago

            There's the FA Cup final should they make it as well. His last game, on his birthday yada yada *vomit*

            1. NABIL - FPL otai
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              how dare you do that to your Legendary player 😀

              1. Billy Gilmore
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 22 days ago

                Don't get me wrong, love the guy. But can you just imagine the buildup...more cringeworthy than a BR goal celebration.

          2. AleksanderVN
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            GW 38 are away. Don't you think we will have some sentimentalism on Anfield aswell?

            1. Billy Gilmore
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              GW37 then.

            2. NABIL - FPL otai
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              later in the season is my point.

    4. Project Rascal
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yeah. I have Coutinho over Hendo and reckon he will get a sizable haul..

      1. AleksanderVN
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        I might join you.
        Bit afraid of Coutinho tendency to assisting the assister.

    5. King Huth
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      i think both are over performing and both will not do well for the rest of the season!

      BOLD statement

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        its ok Rogers plays fpl

        1. Rhinos
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          lets face it all this coutinho love is from people who cant afford sterling 🙂

          1. AleksanderVN
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Sterling is a must have, the question is who to have beside him.
            Coutinho or Henderson? Take it we all have Skrtel/Moreno.

      2. AleksanderVN
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Hendo maybe, but Coutinho is not over performing FPL-wise.
        His stats are amazing, but the output a little far from it.

      3. Guidinho
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Henderson is a good player with slightly inflated recent score with the pennos.

        Coutinho is just not very good full stop (relative to his nomination and standing amongst Liverpool fans). Has a couple of stand out moments but is then ineffective for the rest of the game. Not even a top 10 midfielder for me in the country.

    6. Sharkytect
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Yes

  2. Patty

    Pick on from each
    Part 1: to partner Ospina
    A. Schmeichel
    B. Harper/McGregor
    C. Krul
    D. 4.0 (myhill)
    Part 2: to partner Terry, Baines, Moreno and Cameron
    A. Morgan
    B. Elmohamady
    C. Dann
    D. Aldewereld
    E. Jenkinson
    F. Rose
    G. Janmaat

      unsure about Cameron though

    3. AleksanderVN
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A
      F (this is outside the box, but he is playing more like a winger/striker these days)

    4. SPorting
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A + C

    How do these transfers look for just ONE week?

    Remy + Austin ➡ Aguero + Murray

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      lovely

    2. Project Rascal
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      If for a free then do it. Aguero vs a lackluster WHU and Murray with an amazing record against WBA who have conceded a hatful of goals

    3. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Very tasty.

    4. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      do it, no doubt

    5. Boyd to Sven
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Nice moves. I'd probably do it even for a hit.

  4. Miro

    Anyone else tripling up on city attack this week?

      me

      1. super zlatan

        Nice. Hope it pays off pal

        1. Hansel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          one week punt, yaya most likely to perform out of the mids im considering so think one should ignore the fact that i have silva and kun and just look at who's likely to score!

          1. super zlatan
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Same thought process as myself Hansel

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      who is there? not yaya surely

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      wow. Yaya Silva Kun?

      Only 2 here

      1. super zlatan
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Yeah going with those exact three Nabil.

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          good luck!

          1. super zlatan
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Cheers. Yaya is a one week punt for Sanchez.
            You think it's mental?

            1. NABIL - FPL otai
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              big call but could pay off. Call me crazy but I'd prefer Lennon

    4. Mr. O'Connell
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Aye. Kun, Silva, Yaya.

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        I have Cresswell 😳

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Well he got you a few points last week!

          1. Rhinos
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            bout time, he been a horrible buy

    5. Billy Gilmore
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yep, well technically quadrupled with Kun(c)

      1. super zlatan
        • 13 Years

        🙂

      2. NABIL - FPL otai

        nice one Bily

  8. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    a) Remy -> Murray (play both Dawson and Myhill, who Murray is facing)

    or

    b) Bellerin -> Jagielka (Play Remy/JWP and Myhill)

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      B

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      id go b just coz can see pulis taming palace, other opinions are available

      1. Hansel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        palace seems quite free scoring at the moment though?

        1. Rhinos
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          yeah bu tthats away from home, hoping wont be quite as effective against a pressing west prom defence

      2. Doolittle
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Then going for A wouldn't be bad - double WBA!

        1. Hansel
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          You mean it would be bad?

          1. Doolittle
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            It would even itself out, Pulis taming Palace would get you 12 points minimum from 2 defenders with A (barring cards).

    3. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      thanks for input guys, this is just a one week punt btw, will wc next next week!

        The luxuries of a midfielder on the bench! 4-3-3 for me this week.

          4-3-3 for me too. Boyd and Mane on the bench 😯

      Morning Londoner. possibly

      1. Doolittle
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Strange being called a Londoner, only been here for 18 months, first 22 years of my life were in Liverpool!

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Life is strange 😉

          1. Doolittle
            • 11 Years

            Hey, I don't have a bad word to say about Liverpool! Sri Lankan through and through really of course 😉

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          are you liking it? as a born and bred Londoner, Im dead proud of the place

          1. Doolittle
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            I absolutely love it. Similarly, as a born and bred scouser I love and am proud of Liverpool, but I needed a change after being there for my whole life, and London just has so much variety and things of interest, it's fantastic. I can see why it might overwhelm some people, but it's a wonderful city.

      Another wonder Boydinho goal incoming...

  10. Robe Wan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Lads I'm in what the Spanish would call El Pickle. I only have 10 players at the moment but 2 FTS

    Myhill

    Clyne Fonte Dawson (Bellerin Hutton)

    Hazard Eriksen Boyd Silva (Sanchez)

    Kane Kun (Austin)

    A) Austin - Murray

    B) ANYTHING ELSE!

    1. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A is a no brainer lad

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        not a no brainer, Vardy good pick too

        1. super zlatan
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Agree with this. Vardy a good option too

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I actually would go
      Austin to Vardy
      and
      Sanchez to Fab

      take a hit next week and get 2 Lpool

      1. Amateur Pundit Zan
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        That's exactly what I did Sab 🙂

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          good moves

    4. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Got to be Austin to either Murray or Vardy. I'd probably go with Vardy.

    5. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      right, thanks a lot lads, v interesting.

      the idea of Vardy gracing my team is making me shiver but it might be a good option

      and also shipping sanchez to fab looks attractive too

      1. Joggers Nipple

        i wouldnt go near vardy unless it was a move getting rid of Austin. That one makes sense

        oh yeah. La pickle enorma

  11. JogaSemmedo
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    For a hit which would you do this week

    A) Bellerin to Terry (enables me to field 11 players)
    B) Eriksen to Cesc
    C) Kane to Vardy

  12. super zlatan
    • 13 Years

    Is 8 dgw players too much for a wildcard team?

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      no coz chel liv can gradually become arsenal and the the other 2 can be benched

    2. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yeah stick with 3 or 4 and waste the opportunity 😉

      1. super zlatan

      No

    4. DanwiseTheBrave

      I'm looking at 7 and can still get 3 arsenal by GW37

    5. Billy Gilmore
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Na, I think I'm going 9

    6. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Pointless using the WC really if you're going to hold back on them.

    7. The Iron Tulip
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I'm going 9 so...... no

  13. Christina.
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    What's better....I'm confused...

    No keeper this week and roll a FT(play with 10 if Remy is fit)...or get ...

    A) Schmeichel...does getting him justify a hit next week?
    B)Davis

    Which is best...?

    All these numbers!

    🙁

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years

      B you know you can trust me 😉

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years

        ...logs onto CWC fixture spreadsheet....

          😀

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      dont think the point difference will be much either way so just get scmeichel for max double week fun

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Yeah, who knows, with Gomis out Kasper might grab a rare CS.

        *Cue Hamer recall

    3. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Who are your current keepers?

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Forster(lol) and Panti

        I'm the guy that jinxed Forster...

        To much money tied up in Forster so I need to get rid of him.

        1. Amateur Pundit Zan
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Definitely worth getting scmeichal, 2 extra games from your current set up pays for the hit, all upside from there

          1. Christina.
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Yeah, well it's for free. I have 2 FT's.

            I will take a hit next week for liverpool players. In my small potato head it also seems Kasper is the way to go, especially iro the Liverpool hit next week.

    4. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      B.

      If it was a defender I would've said get a Leicester one cause he can be rotated out after the DGW but seeing as you're stuck with the GK you may as well go with Davis.

      1. Beavis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Unless you have a decent 2nd GK then maybe I'd be tempted by A.

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Schmeichel has decent fixtures (on paper) right till the end.

          Panti my 2nd keeper and he covers DGW 37.

          1. Beavis
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Tough one really cause you wouldn't want to play Schmeichel almost every week. That said, I don't see many cleanies for Davis anyway.

    5. JogaSemmedo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A) It makes the hit more worthwhile next week by getting him in now, he's got a decent fixture this gw plus the double too to make up for a hit in the dgw (that's my logic at least)

    6. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I'm out of the know, but B maybe.

      1. super zlatan
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        A.

        Decent fixture and dgw makes this sensible.

    7. Billy Gilmore
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      B for me

      lol

  14. Rhinos
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    I was gonna do Zamora to Vardy but then i remembered you gotta bench one of your front 8, damn these petty rules 🙂

    1. Punty
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Bench Kane play 3-5-2

  15. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    I'm going Coleman over Baines.

    Any last minute objection?

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      No

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years

        good

    2. Nickofoz

      Yes.

    3. Christina.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years

        That's the way I like it 😉

    4. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I think Baines is the better pick and is still #1 penalty taker

    5. Jaffalicious! #SomosCubanos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Objection!! 😀

    6. Shifty
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      can't fault goalman.

      Nabil, would appreciate your advice since we're on the matter in a way

      A) Naughton > Baines/Coleman, play 4-3-3
      B) Sanchez > Silva, play 3-4-3

      DEF + MID this GW is

      Myhill
      Clyne Ivano Dawson
      Eriksen Hazard Mane (Ameobi)

    Predictions for

    PFA Players' Player and PFA Young Player?

    Hazard and Kane for me

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Those are the bookies' respective favourites. Can't really argue with the bookies.

      Completely inexplicable how you can be the POTY but not win YPOTY as well though.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Ha, see below!

      2. Amateur Pundit Zan
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Probably fair enough to split it like this though, recognising both the stand out options for the year

        1. Beavis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Then they shouldn't be nominated for both.

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      yaya and ravel morrison

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I thought the same as you, Hazard and Kane.

      Then a friend put a very good point to me, if Hazard is the players player should he not also win the young players as well. Is this allowed? His point was is that if he is the best player he surely has to be the best young player as well.

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        No, it's not allowed if I remember correctly. Good point though.

        I think it's just to 'spread' out the two awards (for lack of a better phrase).

        1. Beavis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Ronaldo won both didn't he?

          1. Beavis
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Oh maybe it was Bale then.

            1. Doolittle
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              Ronaldo did as well in 2006-07.

            2. Billy Gilmore
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              Ronaldo did too

              1. Nickofoz
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 9 Years
                9 years, 22 days ago

                Oh, so it is allowed. I still don't think Hazard could win both though

                1. Beavis
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 12 Years
                  9 years, 22 days ago

                  He won't.

        2. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Had a quick search, Bale won both

          http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/22331030

      2. Doolittle
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        See below, happened in 2010-11. Bizarre.

    4. Billy Gilmore
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      It seems daft that someone who's eligible for both and wins POTY won't win YPOTY by default so it will probably happen

      lol

      1. Doolittle
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Bale won PoTY in 10-11 and Wilshere won YPoTY. Very daft, I agree.

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Bale also won both in 12-13

          1. Doolittle
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            I know, the whole system is pretty nonsensical.

    5. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yep, Hazard and Kane. Ridiculous though that you can be PoTY and not YPoTY, the age limit needs to be lowered to 21 I think for YPoTY.

      1. Beavis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Also agree with this.

      2. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        What is the current limit?

        1. Doolittle
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          24

    6. Sharkytect
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yeah, no other choice. Hazard consistent all year. Kane exploded after 9 games (although was scoring in Europe) and might already be fading

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Yep.

  17. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    If Remy isn't fit. Is Remy -> Nugent good move? Tempted to get Murray but I prefere dgw players atm.

    1. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I'd rather Vardy than Nugent I think.

  18. OzilFozzil
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Quick Fire Poll:

    Bring one in for the next couple of weeks

    A) Naughton -> Azpili
    B) Naught -> Coleman (Cant afford Baines)

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      B with Ivan

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      B

    3. S.Kuqi

        B

    4. Margarido
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      B because F.Luis surely will play one of the next 4.

    5. Shifty
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A. Think Jose will trust Azpi's PL experience over the run in.

    6. Margarido

  19. Boyd to Sven
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Is anyone else looking at Sturridge as a Liverpool option for the double? All the talk seems to be around the defence and midfield but with those fixtures if he is back starting again I think Sturridge could be a great option.

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      No double figure scores all season, made of glass, not even guaranteed the minutes when he's fit, doesn't look sharp when he plays, 11m.........I could go on...

    2. S.Kuqi
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      o/

      If confirmed fit.

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Thing is even if he starts one there is guarantee he will be fit for the second. Injury disaster that boy

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        *is no

    4. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      he could but rogers has shown he not afraid to rest him plus only way to get him is to dich kun and that doesnt look an attractive prospect right now

    5. Dangerous Donkeys
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A fit and firing Sturridge would be first name on the team sheet, but...

    6. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Was my original plan but a good chance he will only play 1 based on all recent history

    7. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Don't see how any sane person could be looking at him. BR has said he won't be fully fit this season. He hasn't been in any sort of form and is extremely injury prone. If he manages to start one I'd guess he won't start the other.

    8. Boyd to Sven
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Haha. Well that seems pretty conclusive! Cheers all.

  20. The Iron Tulip
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Already asked this a few times this week but wanted a last round of opinions before I make the swap. For this GW before I WC, who do you think will score more:

    A) Howard (bur) + Dawson (cpl) - means I play 11
    B) Murray (wba) - means I play 10

    Cheers!

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A

    2. Dangerous Donkeys
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Does A involve a hit?

      1. The Iron Tulip
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        It doesn't no, I have Dawson already and will be doing green > howard.

      2. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        a

    3. Shifty

      A

    4. The Iron Tulip

    "Normally, he plays tomorrow. But we'll see how he trains today"

    1. Doolittle

        Moyes is back? 😯

        9 years, 22 days ago

        This
        and

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Remy has a chance, the media the refs they all hate him and want him to be injured but we will see if he can play

    3. Jaffalicious! #SomosCubanos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Late fitness test maybe?

    4. Shifty
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      "scientifically, he is ok. but we will see how he trains today. he is an important player. but we have drogba ready"

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        😀

  22. The Machine
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Pfa young usually goes to a young player thats made the biggest jump in his career(judging by who has recieved this award in recent years). Cr7 was not only the best in the league overall but made the biggest progress the year he won them both

    Kane definitely made the bigger jump than hazard despite hazard being the better overall. He was already top class

    Seems fair enough to me

    1. The Machine
      • 10 Years

      Bale won it in 2012-13 (along with PoTY), despite having won PoTY in 2010-11.

        9 years, 22 days ago

        I know, bale made a ridiculous jump thay year despite winning the main one is 2011( i still dint know why he won the main one that year, hr wasnt that good)

        Also the case of no real other stand out contendors

        1. Doolittle
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Yeah I said yesterday, the standard in 2010-11 was very poor. There's no way YPoTY should be up to 24, Bale winning that year and Hazard being eligible this year is ridiculous.

          1. Ruth_NZ
            • 9 Years

            I agree, I don't think of Hazard as a young player any more.

            Having said that, if he is eligible for both he should win both. Hands down the best player in the PL this season.

      That'sa good way of putting it

  23. Jonny Bananas
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Better triple up for the DGW

    Hendo Sterling Mignolet or Ivan Terry & Hazard?

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Or? And more like

      1. Jonny Bananas
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        yeah i did kinda mean and....poorly worded question....

        I meant it more like this...

        yeah i didn't explain hat very well.

        Mignolet Sterling & Hendo + Ivan & Hazard

        or

        Sterling Hendo + Hazard Terry & Ivan - which is better?

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      The former

    3. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      The one with hazard in it

      1. Beavis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        You'd assume he's going 3+2 or 2+3 so Hazard is a given in either of them.

        1. Jonny Bananas
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          yeah i didn't explain hat very well.

          Mignolet Sterling & Hendo + Ivan & Hazard

          or

          Sterling Hendo + Hazard Terry & Ivan - which is better?

          1. Beavis
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Yeah so it's just Terry vs Migs. Migs the better option for me.

            1. Jonny Bananas
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              that is a much simpler way of wording it, haha. miss it is. thanks

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              Migs

    4. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I prefer the Liverpool one, but you should have 3 Chelsea, and one must be Hazard.

    What's Brown Ideye's chance of playing you reckon? Think Anichebe will start alongside Berahino now he has a knock?

    If he's not gonna play I may aswell take the hit now and get him out given those fixtures...

    Can someone please kindly explain to me the striker situation at Leicester? Looking at Ulloa, Nugent and Vardy's game time is beyond confusing to know who is firs choice, etc. Thanks.

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Leicester are in good form and Vardy been playing through that form so logical to expect his inclusion

    2. Margarido
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      They have played all 3 in the last 3 games.
      Front 3 at Spurs - Vardy (L), Ulloa © and Nuggent ®
      Front 4 vs WHU - Vardy (L), Ulloa and Nuggent © and MAhrez/Albrig ®
      Front 4 at WBA - Vardy (L), Ulloa and Nugg © and Albrig (r)

    CHS but shirley you are doing both. 😕

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Bollox. Reply fail at Jonny Bandanas.

  27. Pringle
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    If Remy is confirmed fit. What option do you prefer for this weekend only?

    A. Remy + Bolasie + Bertrand
    B. Murray + Eriksen + Bertrand
    C. Remy + Eriksen + Baines

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A The one w/out Erik, the annoying oik.

    2. RiflaFC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      C, Erix will score against a poor New defence, and Burnley will not be able to score at Goodison

    3. MBK 42

      A

    Best Mid just for this week?
    Up to 9.3m...

    1. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Bolasie if he starts in the hole, maybe Mata if you fancy United to do some damage.

    2. MBK 42
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Barkley

      1. Margarido

    Best differential midfielder for this GW only (will WC next week), money no issue.
    I have Ozil but for obvious reasons I'd like to get rid of him before the blank.

    I've been thinking that Mata might be a good shout, or perhaps even Fellaini or Young.
    Thoughts?

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      yaya

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Mata is a good shout.

      Also if you fancy Yaya or Bolasie.

      1. RiflaFC
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        thanks mate

    3. RiflaFC
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yaya might not be the worst idea, I do have Kun and Silva already, but West Ham have been conceding quite a lot away from home recently..

      1. Margarido
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        If i had the money i would go Yaya…
        He always plays better when against a fellow african midfielder (Alex)

    Panti
    Ivan-Bert-Alderweireld
    Haz-Silva-Mane-Boyd
    Kun(C)-Kane-Gomis
    Bench: Hamer, Alexis, Lescott, Wasi
    1 FT, 0.4 itb.

    With this team it's got to be worth doing Gomis, Panti->Murray, Howard for -4, right? I'm wildcarding next week.
