The ScoutCast – Episode 169 – Inferno

The time comes when every Fantasy Football manager has to react quickly to douse some fires in their squad. The problem is, my team is currently a blazing inferno, without a disco in sight.

At least that’s Granville’s opinion. Buoyed from seeing his canny capture of Anthony Martial deliver a brace at St Mary’s, my cocky co-host is quick to dish out a whipping to my ailing lineup.

We discuss the merits of United’s new teenage sensation as part of another round of community questions, served up once again by Jonty. The three of us also ponder the Chelsea revival, David Silva’s fragile ankles and just how our Fantasy Football managerial styles translate to the dog world: a crunch question that’s been brewing unanswered for many episodes.

    No idea who to bench

    McCarthy/Butland

    Darmian/Kol/Francis/Naughton/Gomez

    Sanchez/Yaya/Pedro/Payet/Mahrez

    Aguero/Wilson/Ighalo

    1. jackluhg

      Similar team to mine.. got Wilson on mine atm..

      all depends if I panic and take a hit for Martial of course lol

    2. Berkan
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Out of all those id say Mahrez is most likely to blank

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Mahrez if you have to.

    I have 0.2 in the bank with two free transfers please suggest some transfers my team is as follows:
    Pants (hennesy)
    Pva azpi cedric (huth francis)
    Hazard mane mahrez toure (wanyamma)
    Aguero wilson benteke

    1. Joey Barton and Friends
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      upgrade your keeper

    2. DwarfKing
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Sadly Benteke is injured and will probably need replacing.

    3. Forever In Our Shadow

      Pants to myhill. Pva to cresswell and Trekkers to martial & (C) him. Done. Enjoy your points.

  4. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Will Mc carthy start this week fellas.got him and Schmeichel and not convinced by either.

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      McCarthy should start.

  5. Alan Hansen's Emu
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Captain for this week?

    A) Sanchez

    B) Payet

    1. *sigh*
      • 12 Years

      A

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu

    Oh my. THAT jumper gets a second run out. Needs to go for a -4.

    1. A.T
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      😀

    2. Optimus.
      • 13 Years

      Eoin Mc Love would be so jealous

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Yep. Daniel needs to bake Mark a jumper-cake.

  7. Joey Barton and Friends
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    WC team. Double chelsea defence but rest look good?

    Bego/McCarthy

    Azpi - Francis - Kolarov - Targett - Cathcart

    KDB - Mahrez - Hazard - Payet (Fletcher)

    Kun - Wilson - Martial

    No beans in the bank

    1. Ziegler1988
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Needs WBA defence

      1. Joey Barton and Friends
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        I know but can't squeeze Jevans in

        1. Ziegler1988
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Haz to Pedro. Then upgrade Targett and McCarthy

          1. Ziegler1988
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Or Wilson to Ighalo

          2. Joey Barton and Friends
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            good advice but I fancy Haz to start producing (haven't owned him yet). No probs with Targett on my bench each week

    2. Takamba
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I'm on a wildcard, and have identical front 8, if that helps?!

      1. Joey Barton and Friends
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        whats your defence? I am inclinced to swap wilson for bojan to be honest

      2. Takamba
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Only difference overall, is I have Cresswell over Azpi and Evans over Targett

        Guessing my TV is just very slightly higher

        1. Joey Barton and Friends
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          same keepers?

          1. Takamba
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Yep

            1. Joey Barton and Friends
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 7 months ago

              nice rank for 5 weeks in. Im only in 600k but improving...

              1. Takamba
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 7 months ago

                Not as nice as last year, unfortunately!

    3. Takamba
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Also, not worried about lack of Arsenal coverage this week?

      I think I'm going Walcott over KDB, and swapping to KDB next week (leaving £1.7m in the bank to do this)

      1. Joey Barton and Friends
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Walcott will just burn me. Arsenal (except Cech) is too much of a minefield

        1. Takamba
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          The other option I have is to go Sanchez over KDB, and downgrade to KDB next week, but this means downgrading McCarthy to a 4.0, Francis to Cook and Target to non-playing 3.9. Squad then suddenly looks thin.

          1. Joey Barton and Friends
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Yep and Sanchez has scored 1 goal in circa 14 PL games...

            1. Takamba
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 7 months ago

              I just know he'll tear it up the week I take him out. I do fancy Arsenal to score 2 or 3 against Leicester.

              1. Joey Barton and Friends
                • 12 Years
                8 years, 7 months ago

                I fancy them to win to. Leicster can't keep going but who will score? For the minute I will avoid the gunners

                1. Joey Barton and Friends
                  • 12 Years
                  8 years, 7 months ago

                  who are you captaining? Lots of choice but I reckon Hazard v Newcastle

                  1. Takamba
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 7 months ago

                    On Martial at the moment, but could change.

                    Hazard, Payet, Martial, Aguero all good options this week

                    1. Joey Barton and Friends
                      • 12 Years
                      8 years, 7 months ago

                      I am happy to have Martial - thing is I wouldn't be suprised if LVG benched him (unlikely I know)

  8. HurriKane
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Yes or No ?

    Aguero --> Martial (-4)

    1. Slam
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      😆

    2. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Same boat as me! Really not sure what to do

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Absolutely not.have a look at city's upcoming fixtures.

    4. Demelbrush
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      That would be a terrible transfer.

    5. Numb
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yes!

    6. Shipstontrev
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      No. Man U have Arsenal away next week, City have Newcastle at home

    7. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Hmmmmm. Could back fire. Mum is due. Remember last season v Spurs at home,? He trolled me badly that day.

      1. Forever In Our Shadow
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        thats Kun not mum. Frigging auto correct.

  9. Slam
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Think I'm all set. 🙂 Finally.

    Butland
    Bellerín Fonte Kolarov
    Yaya Payet{C} Barkley Sánchez
    Gomis Aguëro Ighalo

    McCarthy… Mahrez/Francis/Prödl
    1 FT 0.1 ITB

    50+ point week?

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Run it through RMT, then minus 15.

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I sure hope not! 😉
      🙂 .. looks good though mate. Gonna keep your captain in mind when i choose mine 😉 .. and for the first time since GW 1 owning Mahrez will be exciting 🙂

      1. Slam
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        😆
        Don't worry, I've switched from Yaya -> Kun -> Barkley 😮 -> Payet -> Sánchez -> Back to Payet… etc.

        Merrygoround effect 🙂 which isn't that bad of a problem to have.
        Huge risk with Bellerín instead of Mahrez but I see Arsenal winning 0-1.
        Good luck again.

    3. Shipstontrev
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Can't see a cleanie from Stoke

  10. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    No Martial who am I gonna captain, really worried Martial will kill me!

    Sanchez Payet Mata
    Aguero?

    1. Slam
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      He won't.
      I've gone Payet.

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Anyone other than Mata.

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Payet seems safest on current form!

        Epic you decided yet?!

        1. Epic Fail
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Still on Kun at the moment. Not definite though.

          1. Rinseboy
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Payet seems pretty consistent and on form?

  11. Alan Hansen's Emu
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Who to captain this week?

    A) Sanchez

    B) Payet

    1. Slam
      • 8 Years

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Chill out son. Accident.

        My phone was playing up and wasn't positing

    2. Alan Hansen's Emu

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Don't like the look of Sanchez in recent games; whereas it's the complete opposite with Payet.

  12. Pompel
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    What combo:

    a) Hazard + Yaya

    b) Pedro + KdB

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      A

    2. Specialist

  13. Yome

    1. Epic Fail

      I would write a rap about it, but that would probably look a bit gay.

      2. Attaka
        • 9 Years

        I brought him in last week in my draft league, although I didn't captain him. Him and Pelle sent me flying to the top! 😀

  15. DannyBoy....
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Question: is this the week Mahrez finally blanks and disappoints us?

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yes.
      I'd bench him if I had someone decent to play instead of him. But I don't, so moot point. =)

    2. proczell
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Answer: Hope not. Could happen tho

    3. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Very likely.

    4. Wild Rover

    5. I Member

              Don't know if I'll have the nerve

          2. Wild Rover
            • 13 Years

            Still undecided

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2. Specialist

      8 years, 7 months ago

      They're the defence I'd most want to double up on

      1. proczell
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        But could go Hammers or Spurs def as well..

          Wouldn't go for Spurs right now, Cresswell could be good though

      I'm planning on playing Gomez this GW. The plan is to ship him for Evans for next weekend.

      1. proczell

        Starting him this weekend?

    Anyone else more scared about not owning Yaya/KDB than Martial?

    No? Just me then...

  19. Gubbins94.

    Play Gomez or Ayew?

    1. proczell
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Ayew

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Ayew, definitely.

    3. Demí
      • 13 Years

      Ayew. Villa have scored in their last 8 away games in a row

      1. janowsc
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Play ayew over mahrez?

    Do i start
    A Howard (wba)
    B Mignolet (AVL)
    and reasons please?

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Howard as Everton are playing better than Liverpool atm.

    2. Mata-Is-The-Juan
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Mignolet.
      Playing at home and am backing Rogers to at least keep a CS against a Sherwood managed Villa.

  21. Slam

    Mahrez @ 50.0% ownership.
    Nice

  22. National Anthem
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Butland / Schmeichel
    Darmian / Francis / Kolarov / Haidara / Gomez
    Coutinho / Mahrez / Hazard / Payet / Ayew
    Aguero / Wilson / Martial

    Any crucial changes needed ? Had bad last 2 weeks so I had to take Payet and Martial for this GW, thinking about changing Ayew, Gomez or Haidara next week just not sure who to change them to.

    1. I Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Gomez -> WBA defender

      Should get rid of Coutinho too if he blanks this weekend.

        Thanks for the reply !

  23. Rinseboy

    Bench Mahrez or play AOA chip?

    Sanchez Yaya Mata Payet Mahrez
    Aguero Wilson Iglho

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Not a bad time to play AOA. Which defender would you be dropping though?

    2. Specialist
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Wilson could also be a bench option. Which 3 defenders would you play and who would you drop for AOA?

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Defenders are

        Darmian Kolorov Williams. So would probably bench Williams

        1. Specialist
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Hmm tough... I'd probably AOA

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      AOA

  24. SMOOTH
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    A. Elphick to zouma/Evans
    B. Coutinho to hazard
    C. Both for -4

    B would mean playing Richards away to pool

    1. Specialist
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      A, Evans.

    2. I Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      A but with Dawson

  25. gribude
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    if u have to choose one...remy or falcao?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Hazard.

    2. Takamba
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Impossible to say at the moment, we don't know who Mourinho will opt for.

      Remy's goal midweek may have just edged him slightly ahead, but who knows

    3. st4rt__
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Remy will start, I promise.

  26. FantasyFS007
    • 12 Years

    Strikeforce currently Kun, Bentekkers & Wilson - Bentekkers out for Martial, Pelle, Ig or someone else? Thoughts appreciated!

    Before Mark puts the inferno out he needs to put the Christmas jumper in it first.

        Don't worry Mark, I was wearing a similar one last night.

        I'm just jealous really. 😉 I also thought you could use it to help light up Granvilles place next week. :-/

  28. Tadic is the new Eriksen

    People thinking Ayew's gonna produce this weekend?

    1. Fuddled FC
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      If he doesn't I'm taking him out for Pedro

    2. janowsc
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Same thought on my mind. Might bench Wilson to play Ayew.

  29. Fuddled FC
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Any reason not to play bench boost chip this week?

    On bench I have Dawson(Everton) , Hoolihan (west ham), Francis (stoke)

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      yeah, because it's best used during a dgw

      1. Fuddled FC
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Why?

        1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Because it gives you the flexibility to buy DGWers across any price and position without having to bench your SGWers with good fixtures. Could be really effectiveon a DGW in my opinion.

    Mostly a different crowd so I thought I'd give this a repost to see what people make of it

    I just reexamined Saints fixtures after they featured under the weak

    SWA, che, LEI, liv, BOU, sun, STO

    From the perspective of a Cedric owner the next 4 are certainly bit iffy for CS (which is why I'm getting Azpi and relegating Cedric to a rotation role) but as a Mane owner there really isn't a lot there that worries me

    The home games hold no fears for me and off the away games currently only Chelsea looks like a likely blank (pending any changes at Pool). Am quite happy to keep Mane for a while yet. If I want Payet then right now Sanchez is the most likely to make way

    1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah, looks strong for Saints attackers, but I'm not sure I see too many CS there.

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        which is exactly my point

    2. Jaffalicious! #SomosCubanos
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Hey JK! What's going on mate?

      I'm not worried about Saint's fixtures at all and am tempted to get Pelle in this week! 😀
