The ScoutCast – Episode 168 – Casual

What makes a “casual” ScoutCast host? Perhaps one who takes to his bed even after a table topping 60-point return?

Despite bringing in his biggest haul of the season, leaving both Jonty and myself in his wake, Granville’s man-flu gets the better of him. Not to worry, Luke, aka “D1sable”, drops in to fill his evening slippers, helping steading the ScoutCast ship as we prepare to cross the choppy waters of another community fueled episode.

Luke and I look on enviously while Jonty gets dewy eyed about Dimiti Payet’s Monday night returns, before we switch attention to the fortunes of the Fantasy Football Scout crowd, scanning their Gameweek tallies in another bout of “Rough with the Smooth”, which this week includes a precautionary tail of a Fantasy Football rage injury.

We round off, as always, with another bout of community questions, assessing the lure of the five-man midfield, strikers and their desperate quest for bonus points, the great “casual” debate, whilst entertaining the idea of making Kolarov our captain. The season could hardly be more bizarre.

    Hmmm

    Can't decide who to play myself but here goes... one from - Targett, Richards or Westwood?

    3. Aussie_Toon_Lad

      Richards for me

    How the hell did my selling value get up to 100.2? I am relatively loaded!

      The theory of relativity!

    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    One thing I would note to anyone looking at team defensive stats, 4 of the worst 7 teams by pretty much any stat have all played the Arsenal stats whirlwind in their opening 5 fixtures.

      Very good point Balders. I was thinking of running a defensive comparison, but I don't know how much value that would be. Maybe I can but just put an asterisk next to all those teams that have played Arsenal...

    How long is Myhill nailed on for?

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Hopefully slightly longer than Jesus was

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Ouch. The second coming of Myhill

          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Is that the one where Foster plays for a week and gets injured again?

          1. Cheeseoid
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            That is it.

  4. reddick16
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Question for you guys... I have 1 FT, was thinking switching Hazard to Sanchez OR Ozil to Oscar for the weekend... I expect goals in the match but I'm unsure who's going to win! I still want to have some big hitters in the squad.

    1. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Neither for me.

    2. Aussie_Toon_Lad
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Prefer Coutinho over oscar

      1. reddick16
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        He's back tin the squad eh? Sounds like a good swap in. Thanks

        1. Aussie_Toon_Lad
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Yeah he's back this week mate and has 2 decent fixtures coming up

  5. Rex Lapis
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Myhill (Hennessey)
    Kola Francis Ivan (Shaw Huth)
    Ramsey Chadli Mahrez Silva (Fletcher)
    Kun Gomis Sakho

    1FT

    A. Sakho > Vardy
    B. Shaw > Evans

    1. Walsh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Save

    2. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I am not ready to double WBA / LEI.

      1. Rex Lapis
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        so save? or transfer out Sakho/Shaw to someone else?

        1. sleecc
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Save

  6. Horlicks esq.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    So I've done it.

    Redmond and Pedro

    to

    Shaqiri and Coutinho.

    two solid home game weeks for them both. Expecting at least 20 points from this move over 2 weeks.

    good?

    1. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Good luck. I think you are a lot more optimistic about this than I would be. Of course it depends who you would be playing instead of Pedro. Was it for a hit?

      1. Horlicks esq.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Nah no hit.

        Not confident on Mahrez repeat dream again, so benching him, huth and darmian.

        Butland

        Gomez / Richards / Sagna

        Shaqiri / Coutinho / Yaya / Sanchez

        Aguero / Wilson / Benteke

        Looking at

        6

        6 / 6 / 8

        10 / 8 / 5 / 3

        10 / 6 / 10

        78 points.

        1. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Over the 2 weeks I think you should hit that! If that is one week I think it is optimistic.

        2. Burning Plastic
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Do. Not. Bench. Mahrez.

        3. MagicMessi
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Butland

          Sagna - Richards -Gomez

          Mahrez - Sanchez - Yaya - Mane

          Aguero - Gomis - Wilson (c)

          Subs : Payet Targett Soare

    2. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Hopefully.

    3. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Never expect much from Coutinho.

    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    @walsh as I know we're both touting him a lot, are you actually getting Wally in?

    1. Walsh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Addressed this on last page 😀

        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        ah yeah, nice.

    2. Arctic monkeys
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Are you ?

        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        probably after my 2 week punt on Coutinho if he looks to have cemented the spot

        1. Arctic monkeys
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Not keen on Coutinho so i'll probably give it another try with walcott, Cheers anayway.

            • 10 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            All the best with Wally! I'm really really hoping he does get the spot so I can get him in again.

  7. Just A Hat
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Rocket League time!

    1. Zolo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      That game is epic

  8. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    2FTs 1.6 ITB
    Mccarthy Butland
    Gomez Darmian Williams Richards Kolarov
    Sanchez Payet Silva Mahrez Westwood
    Aguero Wilson Gomis

    Was thinking of doing Williams --> Dawsons, any suggestions??

    1. Aussie_Toon_Lad
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Nice team mate, I don't mind that trade but it's probably not nessacery this week

      1. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        got 2FTs, so I thought I'd do a transfer.

        1. Aussie_Toon_Lad
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Oh sorry mate didn't notice that, yeah pull the trigger

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Gomis to Benteke? Its not conventional but hey this season is mental.

    3. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Why not Richards instead?

      1. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        It would be a benching nightmare though

        1. sleecc
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          So you won't start Richards at all?

          1. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            I haven't, yet.

            1. sleecc
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Don't you already have benching nightmare with 5 playing defenders?

              1. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 8 months ago

                You know what, I think I'll do Richards --> Dawson.

                1. sleecc
                  • 8 Years
                  8 years, 8 months ago

                  Good luck!

      I have to say your name amuses me a lot.

      1. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
        • 9 Years

        Cheers mate 😉

  9. Joggers Nipple
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Morning All. Think im set this week. Decided to keep Pedro. Decided to go for fun on captain.

    Butland
    Gomez Kolorov Williams
    PEDRO Sanchez Yaya Maherez
    Aguero Benteke (C) Wilson

    McCarthy Westwood Richards Targett

    Looking a bit longer term, would do over a couple of weeks, no hits.

    A. Targett to any 5.0 and Butland to Myhill
    B Target to Evans and Butland to DDG (have exact cash now, cant afford price changes)
    C Richards to Dawson and Butland to DDG. (let Target rot for a bit)
    D ANYTHING else!

    Thanks

    1. Joggers Nipple

      Kolorov VC

      A looks best to me, mate.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks, this is the sensible one

    3. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Prefer C.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks, this is the odd one and also the one im leaning towards!

        1. sleecc
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Not sure how long Myhill nailed, and Evans is injury prone.

    4. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Think I'd go with C

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks, and as said above, great user name

        1. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          Thnx mate, always happy to make someone laugh.

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      C and sort out Targett a bit later

      1. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers

      2. Joggers Nipple
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Targett is 4.1 for me. Happy to let him drop to 4.0. Get team value up and make him a 4.5 later. To be honest could get 2 more weeks out of him

  10. Man Chest Hair United
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    A Coutinho and gomis
    B Costa and Sako?

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Weirdly B but cant think why.

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        I'm thinking b as well Costa will come good imo

    2. Horlicks esq.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Tinho and Shaqiri.

  11. UpAndAway
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Does Gomez keep his place if Rodgers keeps the back 3 formation?

  12. Horlicks esq.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Team and point predictor.

    Nah no hit.

    Not confident on Mahrez repeat dream again, so benching him, huth and darmian.

    Butland

    Gomez / Richards / Sagna

    Shaqiri / Coutinho / Yaya / Sanchez

    Aguero / Wilson / Benteke

    Looking at

    6

    6 / 6 / 8

    10 / 8 / 5 / 3

    10 / 6 / 10

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      In form Maherez over a poor looking Shaq is big shout for me! Good luck with it

      1. Horlicks esq.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        it was either keep redmond or get in shaqiri for his two good gw's. thought id give it a shot.

    2. johnbarnes
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      wishful thinking

    3. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Maybe 58 ...

  13. samaael
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    butland
    kolarov/ francis/ darmian
    pedro/ sanchez/ mahrez/ silva
    aguero/ Wilson/ gomis

    maccarthy/ Richards/ surman/ muniesa

    a) pedro to someone to rebalance team
    b) save and play either muniesa (double stoke) or richards (conflict with Mahrez)
    c) west brom defender

    1. Zolo
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Save. Play Richards

      1. samaael
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        ta

    2. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      D) Keep this formation, and Richards as first sub.

      1. samaael
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        ta

  14. Marquis-Cha-Cha
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Think I'm set for the weekend. Already did Shaw to Dawson.
    How's it looking? Maybe play Williams instead of Westwood?

    McCarthy/Begovic (undecided still)
    Kola - Dawson - Francis
    Mahrez - Sanchez - Yaya - Westwood
    Aguero - Gomis - Wilson

    1. johnbarnes
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      of course, williams over westwood

    2. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Why play Westwood?

      1. Marquis-Cha-Cha
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Just to fill out the mid. Not sure Swansea will keep a clean sheet.

        1. sleecc
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          I'd play Pedro and Williams as first sub.

          1. Marquis-Cha-Cha
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            Sounds like a plan. Thanks.

    3. Marquis-Cha-Cha
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      bench: Williams - Morgan - Pedro

      1. Tiamani Warrior
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        may as well start with pedro incase he suddenly plays and if not he's auto subbed anyway?

        1. Marquis-Cha-Cha
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          'tis true.

    4. 2 Girls 1 Schlupp
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Play williams

  15. MR MOCCA
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    any news from kompany, i have kompany in my scout, shold i change it? worried if he cant play on this weekend

  16. Cheeseoid
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Your starting defenders are fine in my opinion so I wouldn't worry about that and Richards isn't a bad understudy.

    I would either get rid of Pedro or save it.

    1. Cheeseoid

  17. Tiamani Warrior
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Think this may be the first time I've ever captained a defender - C olarov good to go?

    1. Aussie_Toon_Lad
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I think city will concede a goal this week

      1. Tiamani Warrior
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        hmm silva or aguero then?

  18. Horlicks esq.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

      • 14 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Thats 11m on the bench tho.

    5. Aussie_Toon_Lad
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I'd bench shaqiri over both

    6. Cheeseoid

    Morning gents. How are things. Apologies for not being on recently Ive suddenly found myself given a fair bit of after work classes and the pay is good so I can't really say no to it.Been neglecting fantasy a bit, though doesnt seem to be making much difference this season. Goings not great at the minute lol

      I remember you! I was wondering what had happened to you earlier on. You need to make time for this. SOME THINGS ARE IMPORTANT.

        You are not going to take over the penthouse at the Burj at this rate.

          Stuck in the lift in the lobby at the minute 😆

            How is your team looking?

            1. BeachBadger
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              Team looks alright just not getting points and I dont know where they'l come from. Want to get Kolarov in but Pedro out is an annoyance.

              1. Cheeseoid

                • 11 Years

                I think I am just playing him and if he gets a sneaky start great if not Lescott is ok for the week.

                1. BeachBadger
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 8 months ago

                  Would you do Targett to Kolarov so this week if you were me?

                  Targett likely dropped soon and bad fixtures.

                        I'd Targett Kolarov Badger. There's still time to ride that wagon.

                        CHeers mate. Kicking myself I didnt start the wagon. Took Kolarov and Mahrez out of my GW1 team at the last minute lol disaster

                        We all have similar tales of woe this season. It's just the way it is.

                        Personally I think Man City are going to concede this week. I think you have enough defensive cover really. I might be tempted to deal with Pedro

      2. BeachBadger
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        True. I am ashamed. Turning into a right casual which would probably suit me better points wise 😆

        Masters starting next week. I could be up the walls.

          Have you any idea how much work it will take?

          1. BeachBadger
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            Shouldnt be too bad. Its designed for people working full time jobs. More particpation in lectures rather than study it seems though that has pros and cons too. Wont be able to bullsh*t there lol

            Mainly busy due to these private lessons teaching kids. One parent asked me to teach their kids for an hour and now its snowballed that all the parents want me lol Great cash though so theres no turning it down.

                    OK back now. Whole series of probs at home but I wont bore you about it here.

                    By upper tier ranking at fantasy football is the only thing keeping me going.

      Badger! You're alive! I was beginning to get worried. I was going to email you if you didn't emerge from your set this weekend.

      1. BeachBadger
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Early hibernation for me lol Been busy and no real decisions or fun with fantasy at the minute so havent really come on here. How are things with you?

          8 years, 8 months ago

          I'm good thank you. I set up a blog which has kept me busy, but doesn't bring me loads of dosh like tutoring. This little beauty arrived in the post and I've been waiting for you to emerge so I could say thank you! http://ow.ly/i/cENu6

  21. Scheister

    Pedro to Ayew, Payet, Oscar, or play Westwood?

    1. Tiamani Warrior

      for free or hit?

      1. Scheister

        free

    2. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      I'd play Westwood unless you have 2 FTs. The 'lying' one.

      1. Scheister
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        2 FTs
        Thinking on moving Cedric out next week

  22. Gan Vaal
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Barring the injury, start Williams or Dier?

    1. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Williams, only Dier not in an on form team.

      1. Gan Vaal
        • 8 Years

        Cheers mate

    1. Tiamani Warrior
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      hmm that midfield starting to look a bit lightweight for me

      1. johnbarnes
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Do you reckon? The only heavy-hitter I'd want is Alexis, or Silva...

        1. Tiamani Warrior
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          would you have the funds left to get silva or alexis next week or would you need another double tradE?

          1. johnbarnes
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            yeah I'd be able to do Ozil>Silva or YYT>Silva if necessary.

            1. Tiamani Warrior
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              oh too many city then

    2. Tiamani Warrior
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      the transfers on their own sound Ok just think the team structure is getting a bit defence heavy

      1. johnbarnes
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        look, as soon as attacking players start banging in the points, changes will be easy. Planning on a WC gw11-12. I just like SOT's defensive set-up so don't want to get rid of Cedric, and I think Ozil has amazing creativity stats. Kolarov (or any city defence) is essential, and I rate Ayew. Hazard has lost the plot, and now he might not even be on penalties anymore.

        1. Tiamani Warrior
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          fair enough. I also think cedric is a good pick. if anything id think of shipping Kosc

          1. johnbarnes
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 8 months ago

            He's next on the chopping block!

            1. Tiamani Warrior
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 8 months ago

              kosc - kolarov and haz - sanchez? sort out oxford some other time?

              1. johnbarnes
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 8 months ago

                Nope, I'd rather have Ayew than Sanchez right now. And Oxford has to go, he's dead weight in my team. And I don't think Chelsea will score tomorrow.

                1. Tiamani Warrior
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 8 months ago

                  ok well kolorov is near must have and if you're confident on ayew pick then go for it i guess

  24. akamal84
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    sako or coutinho?

    1. Bertzeiner-m
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      Sako

  25. MagicMessi
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Kept faith in Payet last week ,, Keeping faith in Mane this week

  26. Burning Plastic
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    Who are the season keepers in terms of Midfielders and Defenders? (The attackers haven't clicked yet). Also, Ayew or Payet as season keepers and why? I am firmly pro-Ayew as of now.

    1. Tiamani Warrior
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      silva the only big hitter on form so far - surely Sanchez and Haz will come good though??? kolorov seems a must have until any sign of rotation. I think ayew and payet will end up pretty similar points wise so if you prefer ayew then roll with that

      1. Burning Plastic
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks. I'll see how Payet does this week. May have to get him once his fixtures get good.

      2. johnbarnes
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Sanchez will come good, his stats are too good for him to keep blanking. Hazard...I don't know, something's wrong, and he seems to not have Mou's trust anymore.

  27. MagicMessi
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 8 months ago

    hope yall doing gr8

    Plz thoughts bout this :

    Butland

    Sagna - Richards -Gomez

    Mahrez - Sanchez - Yaya - Mane

    Aguero - Gomis - Wilson (c)

    Subs : Payet Targett Soare

    Should i Gomis > Benteke or Aguero > Benteke for just 2 weeks ???

    1. johnbarnes
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 8 months ago

      NO! NO!

      1. MagicMessi
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 8 months ago

        Why not ?????!!!!!!

        1. johnbarnes
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 8 months ago

          B/c Gomis has been amazing and Aguero is Aguero so if he starts he's still your best bet for goals...I have Tekkers, but I'd much rather have Gomis. Regardless of the 2 sexy Pool fixtures.
