The ScoutCast – Episode 170 – Bingo

Forget two fat ladies, in ScoutCast Bingo it’s all about three men with paunches chatting Fantasy Football fortunes, rattling out a few familiar clichés along the way.

Thanks to Numb’s witty community contribution, this week’s episode finds us gripping our dabbers in preparation for mispronunciations, dropped connections and a regular helping of “blimeys”.

Around those fun and games, we tackle the serious matters – assessing the merits of Sergio Aguero, Callum Wilson’s replacements and my range of Christmas jumpers.

All those hard-hitting issues are addressed via another round of community questions, following on from our review of Gameweek 7 as Granville fights the urge to gloat having opened up a 40 point lead over yours truly.

This episode of the ScoutCast was broadcast live on our YouTube channel on Wednesday evening. You can view the full Google Hangout on the larger player below.

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

    Hello DZ.

    https://i.gyazo.com/16e157e36f9b6050732a7324bb53fe72.png

    I assume, I'm good to go?

      Don't question Payet (c) pls. Last time you lot did, I switched to Aguero last minute and it was rubbish. This is the week I'm going to be right. 😉

      Cheers fellas.

        Looks pretty good. But what do I know. I ended at 817k from 350k, Seriously, though team looks good. Vardy as a captain is worth a think.

    Richards/Dawson/Francis..
    Need to pick 2 from these to go with Kol.

    Prob Rich/Fran?
    Not much in it I guess.

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

      Yeah, Richards and Francis

    2. Postman Ty
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      i would never play a villa defender, but it's not like i'm always right. dawson seems a good pick to me.

    bottomed, evening gents!

    I'm in a 15-man league draft league (unique ownership) at https://draftfantasyfootball.co.uk/

    with Son out, is Chadli nailed? tempted to start him over Sako..this is the lineup I'm looking at:

    .....................Myhill
    ......Kolarov - Francis - Davies
    Sanchez - Mahrez - Ritchie - Chadli
    ......Jerome - Gestede - Sakho

    De Gea; Sako, Naughton, Koscielny

    the scoring system looks stolen from FPL, but there are no captains and no bonus points. thoughts?

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

      worth the punt with Spurs fixtures getting good soon

      depends on how much is available in free agency

      looks like slim pickings

      I run a 60-team league (3 divisions of 20, promotion/relegation between divisions)

      I start draft 2nd international break (Sunday). Currently full up, but if you're interested, e-mail me at tjse7@hotmail.com and I'll wait list you. We always lose a few during draft or in first few months (I fire inactive managers and replace them... had a chap take over a 20th place team in January last season and rally to 11th... keeps it lively).

      1. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        done!

        and yeah slim pickings indeed:

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

          I think I might nick Sinclair off that list for Ritchie soon.

          Ritchie's fixtures getting a bit tougher... Villa's too, but they have a good run of fixtures weeks 14 to 24

          will send you an e-mail with some info soon as I get yours

            • 10 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            funny enough I just sold Sinclair for Sako. league is pretty inactive so would be cool to join a more active one

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

              1st division is very active... working on the other 2... been adding a division per season.

              1st division is in its third season
              2nd division in its 2nd
              3rd in its first

              Weed out less active people each season and strengthen the herd. Its working.

                Joined the 3rd division 🙂

  4. lachyas
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    How does my Wildcard team look? Pretty template.

    DDG / Hennessey
    Kolarov / Francis / Davies / Martin / Cameron
    De Bruyne / Sanchez / Mahrez / Payet / Whelan
    Aguero / Martial / Vardy

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

      I don't like the DDG, Martin, Cameron, Whelen and Martial picks.

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

        Yeah DDG and Cameron might have to go, sticking by Martial though.

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

      Why Whelan instead of a Norwich option?

      Defense is a bit weak but guessing you're out of funds.

      Might downgrade DDG to Myhill to have some funds to upgrade Cameron...

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

        Yeah that's max money spent. Didn't put much thought into Whelan as I don't plan on ever playing him but will look at other cheap options. DDG downgrade is a good idea looking at fixtures although a bit of a shame because I got him on the cheap.

    3. t4thomas
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Downgrade DDG to someone like Gomez.

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

        Gomes* Gomez is a Liverpool defender.

        1. t4thomas
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          I just don't see Bournemouth keeping a cleansheet, nor do I see any attacking points for Francis... With Gradel and Wilson out, who will he even assist?

          1. t4thomas
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

    Morn DZ, help needed:

    Myhill
    Darmian Bellerin Kolarov
    Mata KDB Mahrez Sanchez
    Kun (c) Wilson* Martial

    McCarthy* Gomez* Targett* surman

    0.2 ITB & 1 FT

    A) Gomez & Wilson out ➡ Ben Davies & Ighalo in -4
    B) Gomez & Wilson out ➡ Nyom & Gesdete in -4
    C) Wilson & Darmian out ➡ Vardinho & Naughton -4
    D) Wilson out ➡ Gestede or Ighalo in, no hit

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

      A

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

      Probably A.

  6. quarry_settling
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Is hennesy nailed?

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

      He's played one game. The answer is, no.

    2. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      For Wbrom game yes. Going forward no

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      No

  7. Man Chest Hair United
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Is Vardy out then? just checked saw thew tweets but non conclusive

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

      Nah.

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks read back a few pages good to hear

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Im a little confused by this tweet. Didnt he have some sort of cast on last week? It seems the quote is saying he had a problem last week and managed to play. Dont see why thats relevant now

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

        Exactly, I too was a bit confused when I saw it.

        Essentially, he broke two bones in his arm against Villa, got it casted up and everything and the cast was a certain material such that the referees deemed it safe to play with against Arsenal. He'll probably still be wearing it in the next few and assuming one ref has deemed it safe I'm sure the others will.

        Nothing to see here.

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Ok, not just me then. If tweets are getting posted when things stay exactly the same its going to be a lot of work for someone

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

            Yep, whoever was running the Scout Tweets probably misinterpreted it.

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

    NOT satisfied with my D!

    Azpi, Kolarov, Williams, Gomez & Oxford.

    Any suggestions? Only have 0,1 itb

    1. Carrick the Man!!!
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Gomez> Evans

      1. ntrm
        • 9 Years

        0.1 short mate

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

      Ben Davies is a shout I like.

  9. Sz21
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Better ask this in a different way..
    Who do ye think is most likely to score the least points this GW from this lot?

    Richards/Dawson/Francis
    Need to bench one of them.

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

      You bench Richards.

    2. t4thomas
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I would bench Francis.

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

        What makes you say that? You fancy a better scores from Richards v Stoke and Dawson v Palace rather than Francis v Watford?

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

          Thats why he must have said that 😉

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

            Just making sure. Seems odd to me.

    3. Abel Xavier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I would bench Dawson this week

    4. Sz21
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      The Impossible Conundrum then..

  10. EL NINO99
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Play gomis/ martial/ clyne/ dawson/ mane/ moses
    Can go wid any 4 of them
    Thoughts?

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

      Clyne on bench

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

        And maybe Martial or Dawson

    2. t4thomas
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Bench Clyne and Dawson then... Play the 4 attackers.

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

      You bench Clyne.

    4. The Baines
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I will play all attackers if i were u.. 🙂

  11. Siva Mohan
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Gomis owners.. sticking?

    any update on Yaya's injury?

    1. t4thomas
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      YeP.

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

      Already sold to Vardy, haven't jumped on too many bandwagons this season (avoided Wilson, Gomis earlier, Ayew) but I feel if I don't jump on Vardy I'll regret it, the man is bursting with confidence and is in the form of his life.

      No update yet, Pellegrini should have a presser tonight though

      1. Siva Mohan
        • 11 Years

        1. Nickofoz

          No dramas mate 🙂

  12. quarry_settling
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    I wildcarded last week and brought in Mccarthy/Speroni and Walcott. Pre wildcard I had Schemiechel/Hennesy, Costa and Sturridge.
    /cry

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

      Good job you didn't have Costa then.

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

        put Costa in* then.

  13. The Baines
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Good Morning DZ..

    Need some help here.. Please help me select a GK-Defender combo for this week,,

    1. Guzan+Evans
    2. Myhill+Nyom
    3. Myhill+Evans

    1. ~ Mata Magic ~
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      2

      1. The Baines
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Was tinkering between 1 and 3 actually.. 🙂 2 is a good option considering Bournmouth are playing without Wilson

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

      4.

  14. Alittude
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    play ighalo and nyom or francis?

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

      You'd be willing to have Ighalo and Nyom on the bench to play Francis, really?

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

        no ighalo will start, nyom or francis better option to play alongside him?

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

          Ah I see. I mis-read, sorta. It's 6:08am and I've had no sleep, Nyom.

      2. The Baines
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Ighalo and one of the defender he meant..

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

          I know that now.

    2. The Baines
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Francis..
      But really the match can go either way.. The lack of Wilson's presence is a factor too..

    3. Abel Xavier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Francis

  15. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Will Hennessey remain as number 1?

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

      Nobody knows.

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Pardew knows

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

          Ask him then, not a bloody forum. 😉

          1. Count of Monte Hristo
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Zzzzz

  16. ~ Mata Magic ~
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    Sanchez Mane Payet Yaya Mahrez

    Kun Ighalo Vardy

    Whom to bench ?

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

      You bench Yaya, because he's out. Probably.

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Mahrez possibly

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

        You'd bench Mahrez against Norwich? Are we thinking of the same player?

        1. Count of Monte Hristo
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Leaning towards Mane, not easy benching any of that lot and he won't score big points every week. We're all just speculating anyway.,

          1. ~ Mata Magic ~
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            I would surely put Mane in bench , but against the current chelsea defence his pace can cause havoc !

            1. Count of Monte Hristo
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 7 months ago

              So you wouldn't surely put Mane on the bench then...

      2. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Put Yaya in and if he doesn't play have Mahrez/Mane first sub

      3. ~ Mata Magic ~
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Mahrez??

    3. Eden Hazardous
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Bench Igloo/Mane

      1. ~ Mata Magic ~
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Is yaya surely out ??

        1. Eden Hazardous
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          No

    4. The Baines
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I would bench Ighalo

      1. ~ Mata Magic ~
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        thanks mate

    5. Alittude
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      bench yaya coz he might not play 90

    6. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Yaya

    7. Amsterhammer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Wait for presser on Yaya to make a more informed decision.

    8. paganwinter
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I would bench Mane. Would have played AOA if Yaya was not a bit of a doubt

    Hi Team!

    Question

    Bench Darmian and play Nyom AND Francis (thinking 0-0 could be a very likely)

    or

    play Darmian

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I'd bench Darmian.

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

        leaning towards that too...other defender is Gomez...or should I say Gonez

        1. La Roja
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Gomez has to be benched if he is an option

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

      Play Darmian and Nyom...

      breaking my rule of "when in doubt, start Francis" but feeling pretty confident Watford are going to whoop on Wilson-less Bournemouth

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

        Sorry I'm not benching Francis at home to Watford who are what, bottom of the goalscoring charts?!

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

          Ighalo and Deeney played Bournemouth last season. Not your every day opponent.

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

          and you asked for advice, not for an agreement with what you want to do

          I gave mine

          Do as you like

    Morning dzzzz..team is average , rank is crap, and team value is worse 🙂 have 0FT and 0m

    ruddy
    kolo azpi francis --- jevans huth
    mahrez hazard mane sterling -- fletcher
    martial kun deeney

    - deeney/sterling/ruddy are concerns and close to drop..have already lost 0.1 on sterling and 0.2 on deeney
    - dont see point of taking sterling out with 2 home games coming up..will have to hope he scores a couple so i can recoup the loss in his price

    A: deeney >> ighalo (-4)?
    B: Ruddy >>> palace gk?/ Myhill (-4)
    C: deeney + sterling >> mata/payet + ighalo (-8)
    D: Deeney + sterling >> barkley/cabaye + vardy (-8)

      It'll do.

    What represents the best value or strategy for a 5th midfielder, a regular 4.5 priced player (like Westwood, Wanyama) who you'll using very rarely or a 5 - 5.5m mid, whom you'll play more often, especially if you've chosen him such that he rotates with your 3rd striker fixture wise.

    This is of course one of the burning questions for many managers. So would welcome some opinions on this, like how do it usually or has your tactics changed this season due to the emergence of Mahrez (It has changed mine, so).

    Anyways, the way I see it, a nice 5th midfielder priced between 5 - 5.5m is an asset to any team.

    Truth is at the start of season, Mahrez was that 5th midfielder for me, but since he has turned out to be more of a premium mid, the landscape have changed for this season and will remain so, unless he gets injured.

    So it's actually the 4th mid spot (at season start) where you typically spend 5.5 - 6.5m, is the real 5th mid this season. So, you can either choose to spend 5-6m (ex. Redmond) on him (making him effectively a 4.5th mid) and in that case would advice to choose your 3rd cheap striker in such a way that he rotates with your 4.5th mid well fixture wise, or you can simply opt to spend 4.5 proper (Westwood, Wanyama) to make him an actual 5th mid, whom you'll use only when you have injuries but want to save FTs (or avoid hits) that week, but not expecting anymore than a maximum of 3 points.

    Now which one you choose is completely up to you, as I do believe that both tactics has their pros and cons. I personally prefer the former, but due to Mahrez being there and the likes Hazard and Mane being as pricey as they are compared to last season, I'm prefering the later till now. Though I'll have a rethink when I play my wildcard in a few weeks time and if neccessary will adapt for sure.

    Sorry the reply got a bit longer. Thanks for keeping patience. 🙂

      Your post started off well discussing a good topic, I started losing you around the 3rd/4th paragraph

        8 years, 7 months ago

        Yea I agree with you.

        I actually wrote this as a reply to a similar discussion somewhere else, then I redid it to ask for opinions from people on FFS, and the later part was not very perfect. So you can blame me for that sure.

          Nah mate, I was not trying to get it hulked or anything.
          Just wanted to get a few point of views.

          As for hulked post, I had one already, so no real fetish for that and if I went for that, it would have much well written as the last one was. Cheers!

      5th mid... I'd go 4.5 first 2/3 of season... watch for any 4.5/5 that gets hot and will add team value... otherwise ignore.

      You always need the extra funds elsewhere, better to have the flexibility and lack of benching headache. Later in season when depth is more important (with DGWs and teams missing games some weeks) and team value higher, is the time to get a more pricey (mid 5s) 5th mid.

      Mane

  25. Eden Hazardous

    I remember last season and I can strike similarities between Sanchez and Pedro. Both started their seasons with a bang and then their form dried up but we all know what happened in the end.......Could the same happen with Pedro?

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

      Nope, he won't produce anything close to what Alexis did. Alexis was tearing it up for months, Pedro had only two good games maybe. He's not even getting into good goalscoring positions.

      1. Eden Hazardous
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        1 on 1 with keeper last week....

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

          Well true but even then he skied it and Chelsea were pushing forward very aggressively. Sánchez produces goals out of nothing.

          1. Eden Hazardous
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            Barcelona treated both of them with equal status....Wenger bought Sanchez cos he was younger

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

              He's only a year younger. Alexis was bought because he's a significantly better player and Wenger paid a premium for him.

              1. Puyol Pants Up
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 7 months ago

                Disagree. Maybe he suits Arsenals style more.

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

                  Sanchez doesn't suit our style at all actually.

                  1. Eden Hazardous
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 7 months ago

                    Are you kidding ?

                    A AM who does not like to defend , that's Arsenal alright

    2. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      I can't possibly compare them. Sanchez is much much better pick than Pedro at all rates.

      1. Eden Hazardous
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 7 months ago

        Both are quite similar players....Sanchez is just a bit yoounger

        1. Puyol Pants Up
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 months ago

          Agreed, Pedro was on par with Sanchez when both were at Barca.

          1. Eden Hazardous
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 7 months ago

            And Pedro suits Chelsea more (cos he tracks back more and even played RB once for Spain)

    3. mookie
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Comparing him to Navas would be more realistic imo. I would even add "no offense to Navas" at the end, but hey....

  26. La Roja

    Wilson replacement, budget 5.8m

    A) Ighalo
    B) Gestede
    C) Murray
    D) Defoe

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

      Ighaloooooooo

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

      A now, change to B after week 13

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

      Ighalo is the safer pick but Gestede has a higher potential return. I was close to getting Sterling and Gestede this week but opted for Wanyama and Sturridge in the end. My pick would be Rudy.

    2. lahi

      I support United but for FPL, it should be Pelle considering fixture difficulty.
