The ScoutCast – Episode 166 – Patsy

4,145 Comments
Share

It’s Jonty’s time to curry sympathy this week and he’s on the receiving end of a barrage of cyber-bullying from co-host Granville.

Determined to the belittle Jonty’s Wildcard performance following Callum Wilson’s hat-trick, Granville takes to Twitter before roasting him live on air on the ScoutCast. He seems to have totally missed the fact that I too sold on Wilson as part of my own Wildcard; I’m quite happy for Jonty to play Patsy on this one.

Jonty rolls with the virtual punches to join us as we look back on the Gameweek that saw all three of us refresh our squads. We score our Wildcards out of ten, before scanning the community for Gameweek tales in “Rough with the Smooth”.

We then take on your questions, as we assess Pedro’s pedigree, the lure of Aleks Kolarov and the merits of a well-rounded squad in the light of the FPL chips.

This ScoutCast was first broadcast live via our YouTube channel on Tuesday. Be sure to subscribe to our channel for news of upcoming live Casts. You can view the broadcast in full via the larger player below but, if you prefer the edited audio version, you’ll need this link or the smaller player.

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

    Watford have entered the race to sign Fabio Borini from Liverpool, according to Sky in Italy.

    The 24-year-old Italian is considering a move after falling further down the Anfield pecking order following the arrival of Christian Benteke, Danny Ings and Divock Origi this summer.

    Sunderland and Inter Milan have also been linked with the player.

    His percentage in 21 matches with MC scoring more than 4 is:
    11 with 1 (52.38%)
    8 with 2 (38.09%)

    Given Walcott's record against Newcastle, which is pretty great from memory, and the fact that he's not had a start yet - and nobody has scored less goals than Arsenal in the league so far - I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him start at the weekend.

        Doubt he will, but Wenger should drop Ramsey IMO. Or move him back to CM and give Caz a game off. They've been so lacking in width, Walcott would at least stretch the game a bit.

    UFPL question ahoy.

    Am I absolutely insane to consider Ricky van Wolfswinkel?

    Pros:

    1) Might get gametime now Grabban's suspended.
    2) Jerome hasn't exactly been convincing so far.
    3) Norwich's record signing so may get another chance on that basis.
    4) Scored in the League Cup in midweek.
    5) Norwich keep failing to sign another striker.
    6) Only 5.0m so frees up funds for elsewhere.

    Cons:

    1) History.
    2) Ability.

    I understand that a team playing poorly won't necessarily mean 0 fantasy returns buy anyone with Saints players should be planning exit routes.

    I own Targett and he has been appalling this season. Pelle isn't going to get the service this year. The only player worth having is Cedric and I think even he is over priced at 5.0.

    If Mane and Wanyama stay we will be ok but I fear a long season ahead for us. As gutting as last night was (scuppering my weekend European breaks) it may just ensure we are a premier league team for another season
