The ScoutCast – Episode 181 – Clutching

Rarely during the 180-episode history of the ScoutCast have I felt so under fire; forced to curl up in a ball and defend myself by any means necessary.

Reeling from the first dramatic failing of my no-Aguero policy, I recruit Luke to join myself, Andy and Jonty, only to find that I’ve set up an unwanted 3 vs 1 scenario.

A ten-minute tirade, during which I desperately clutch at every tangible straw, has me desperately trying to justify my Aguero stance, while my trio of co-hosts listen on, jab and prod and allow me to tie myself in knots.

Eventually I manage to deflect the blows and switch attentions to another round of community questions. We review failing heavy-hitters, a blossoming Baines and a resurgent Rooney, before the traditional preview of the Gameweek to come.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first aired live on Wednesday evening via our YouTube channel.

        ...needs to grow a beard. Or at least don't shave for a few days before the scoutcast

              You're just dreamy. Over 200lbs of bearded man. 😉

              😀

      If a manly beard is the criteria needed then I will be making a guest appearance soon on Scoutcast 🙂

    ah crap

    If I do Myhill to Hart I am 0.5 short of Ramsey and Iggy to Sanchez and Austin 🙁

      Myhil -> Lloris?

          Gomes? Schmeichel? Who is your other keeper?

            Henessey

            Both rotate nicely but am leaning towards Gomes as Watford have better defensive stats and I have Simpson

            1. Alittude
              • 8 Years

              Do we know of Myhill has lost his place yet ?

    Can anyone explain to me incoming (potential) DGW teams and blanks please ?

    Been a little out of touch on here lately 🙄 ...

    1. Slam
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Well... I did respond but you deleted your comment.
      I mean... wha? 😉

      I was saying that there is a possibility of there being a DGW in GW25 or 26 but it is no certainty. We will know a lot more at the end of the month when we find out who the finalists in the C1C are.

      1. Evs
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Apols

        1. Slam
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          No probs 🙂

        2. Leaf

          Me too !

          Took effort as well as very compiled 🙂

    2. Acquafresca
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Potential DGW in 25, 34 or 37.

      Everton, Pool, City, Newcastle, Stoke in with a shot

      1. Acquafresca
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        and now 26 is a possibility too

      It will be much clearer this time next week. Try saving 2 FTs if you can.

      1. Evs
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Cheers boss - will do.

        I may bring in Paul Daniels for Williams then, mean as Wolly could have a potential DGW.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Stoke needs to beat Pool midweek for that to happen.

    5. C0YS
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Anyone have any advise on players to get in anticipation of DGW? It's my first FPL season.

      I'm on my wildcard right now - though it's about to end soon.

      Howard
      Dier Daniels Darmian
      Mirallas Ozil Payet Wijnaldum
      Kun Lukaku Kane

      Hennessey Mertesacker Targett Alli

      1.9 ITB

      Thanks!

  5. Acquafresca
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Thoughts please:

    Butland McCarthy
    Bellerin Walker Moreno Ward Simpson
    KdB Ozil Mahrez Alli Westwood
    Aguero Kane Kaku

    2FTs, 1.4 banked.

    A) Walker > Daniels/ Evans/ Jags
    B) Mahrez > Firmino
    C) Mahrez + Walker > Payet + def from A
    D) Other

    1. Trigg ⭐️
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Just A.

      No value in selling Mahrez befrore this weekend IMO. I'm getting Jags, too.

    2. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      D

      1. Acquafresca
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        😆

        Care to expand?

    3. TR1CKY TREES
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      C with Jags

    4. AK ⭐
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I'd actually get rid of Ward probably. Or even one of McCarthy/Westwood. Team looks okay. My priority would be to get rid of Ward as Palace seem to have massively regressed at the back.

      1. Acquafresca
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Walker rotation risk now with Trippier.

        1. AK ⭐
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Think he'll be okay tbh

  6. Trigg ⭐️
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Think I might keep Eriksen.

    Will Payet really outscore him this weekend? Be nice to roll a transfer over.

    1. Jazz!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I'd bet on Eriksen to outscore him.

      1. Jazz!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        And I own Payet 🙁

        1. Trigg ⭐️
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          As you can see, its really troubling me! I have Kane, Alli and Eriksen, and it feels like too many eggs in one basket.

          1. Jazz!
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            It does, but I'm very confident Spurs won't blank this week.

            1. Trigg ⭐️
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              I could play Hennessey as cover 😛

    2. Whats the Huth
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Keep Eriksen!

      1. Trigg ⭐️
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        See above, triple Spurs attack is a worry! Although Eriksen's stats are pretty good of late.

  7. WDT
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Controversial, but Aguerö is not the stand out (c) candidate for any of the next 6 gws. In no to get him personally for that outlay.

    *hides*

    1. Slam
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Who would you captain in those 6 weeks?

      1. WDT
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Arguably can match his danger with Lukaku + Kane across the 6. Maybe LEI for city would be the one but Kane has WAT that week anyway.

        1. Slam
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          I've been really poor at captaincy decisions these last few weeks (6 blanks in a row is it?)
          So I would probably choose the wrong one between Kane and Kaku in the next few weeks 😆

    2. Trigg ⭐️
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Spurs at home = Aguero haul.

      Also, regardless of captaincy, he has some weaker sides to play.

    3. Jazz!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Err Sunderland GW26?

      1. WDT
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Away at Allardyce's 10 men behind the ball. Happier with Lukaku against NEW at Goodson

    4. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      You just became Mark's best friend

    5. Worzel Gummidge
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I am also sure you said CPL had not conceded more than 1 away from home and not to captain Aguero. Think I will use my own judgement thanks 🙂

      James Corden: "If you were Prime Minister for a day, what would you do?"

      1. Pochecinno
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        It's funny how only Arsenal players play that card. I don't think I've come across many if any Spurs players doing it. Probably says something about the fans they are pandering to 😛

        1. Leaf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Spurs players would never be voted in as prime minister

          1. Pochecinno
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            True. Only after switching to the other side do they consider a slimy career up the greasy pole.

          He did, I was watching

    7. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Honestly asking why Granville has been missing lately. I haven't watched this scoutcast but the dynamic between Mark and Granville is fantastic as we know they are close friends. Makes for a good show 😀

      1. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        He stopped coming on the show when Mark started flirting with Jonty.

      4. Numb

        Think he's in a huff cos he's been doing badly lately.

      5. A.T
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        He's having a bad season. He probably finds it difficult getting enthusiastic about fpl. Can't say I blame him. On the other hand he might be just busy, who knows 🙂

      6. Optimus.

    9. DGWs simplified
      Jazz!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      For those who are a bit behind on the possible DGWs.

      GWs 27, 30 and 35 WILL include blanks.

      GW27 Blanks for C1C Finalists
      GW30 Blanks for teams that reach the FA Cup QF
      GW35 Blanks for teams that reach the FA Cup SF

      Most likely DGWs are GW25, GW34 and GW37 (not set in stone, of course).

      The only team that will have NO DGWs is Leicester (at the moment).

            8 years, 3 months ago

            I've seen so many questions about the DGWs lately and so many different answers, but this is the clearest and simplest I've come across

            1. Rhinos
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              are 30 and 35 guaranteed though? no chance of the relevant games being played midweek?

              1. Trigg ⭐️
                • 11 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                None whatsoever.

                • 9 Years
                8 years, 3 months ago

                Yes guaranteed. FA Cup QF and SF will be played on those gameweeks.

                1. Rhinos
                  • 10 Years
                  8 years, 3 months ago

                  yeah but the prem games could fit midweek could they not?

                    • 9 Years

                    Nope, they're already scheduled.

                    1. Rhinos
                      • 10 Years

                      8 years, 3 months ago

                      why couldn't they be moved to midweek?

                        8 years, 3 months ago

                        Because Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of those midweeks are reserved for European matches.

        Oh, and here's a blanks/DGW ticker thing that can help

        https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zcb5jGdVitByKQ8R1X4gcEBpiNY9qbLylr72btlTubc/htmlview?pli=1#gid=1214293201

        I didn't make it, someone else on FFS made it (can't remember who!) but full credit to them.

          Nice work mate, been a bit busy and my focus always goes when it comes to planning for dgwks anyway, this is clear and concise.

          Still confused about the relevance of DGW's and why they are so important, I can't find a DGW WC strategy that makes me want to save my WC for the DGW(s).

        Barkley or Mirallas best pick from Everton midfield?

        1. Syd.
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          The slightly less greedy one

            • 9 Years

            Barkley?

            1. Syd.
              • 14 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Yes 🙂

        2. WDT
          • 12 Years

          Mirallas is a prat.

      16. Kuyt Hero
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        A) Do Mahrez --> Alli this GW (have to do it tonight) and WIllian --> Payet next GW (exact money)

        OR

        B) Keep mahrez and make no transfers this GW and do Kos & Willian --> Jags and Payet next GW?

        1. TR1CKY TREES
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years

          Keep Kos

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years

              Got to get Payet for next GW tho, if i wait til next GW Im struggling to think how I could free up funds without giving up Koscielny...

      17. Does it Mata
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Sell Sagna or Kolarov?

        1. Latchmere Wave Machine
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Wow you're the one who owns both!

          Probably Kolarov based on value

          1. Does it Mata
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Played both last GW, would have get 2 cs if they player...

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Would you ditch Koscielny or Alderweireld to free up funds?

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          I'd at least keep Toby this week.

        2. TR1CKY TREES
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          I have both and am keeping both. But if you need funds then you will get a lot of change from either

        3. Sleep Talk
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          No, but it depends on what you will be using these funds for, just increasing you bank value won't help much. I'd keep them both for the next three gameweeks though.

        Any of you guys order a lot of ticket for EPL-games? What's the best place to get them?
        I'm doing some work in Swindon for the time, and figured I'd spend the weekend in London instead of going home to Norway and back again for only 2 days. Keen to see either Palace, West Ham or Arsenal this weekend.

        This site seems to have some tickets: http://ticketbisevents.com/en/premier-league-tickets/ca667?afl=694JWFTART Reliable?

        Without having listened what are people's bets on when Mark will get Aguero in? I am thinking one more week.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Same.

        2. A.T
          • 13 Years

          First Dgw with Aguero in it.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Walker.

          • 14 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Im starting walker but I'm not confident he will start. Few on here reckon he definitely will but trippier looks good and he likes to rotate when 3 games in a week

        • 12 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        If there's a DGW in GW37 I might use my AOA before it rather than on GW38 as planned.

        My transfers will be used to fund DGW players on GW37, meaning if I wanted to downgrade a defender for a strong 5th mid on GW38 it would most likely cost a -4 hit.

        Just something to come in mind anyway

        1. Bøwstring The Carp
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          keep in mind* 😕

        3. A.T
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          I'm thinking AOA might be useful in a blank week, when you might be struggling to get a team out. Who knows

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years

            Another good point 🙂

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            Chances of getting 8 attackers in a blank week are slim.

            1. A.T
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 3 months ago

              Yep it might work for some with a couple of ft's perhaps but not likely. I'll save mine next season for such a scenario just in case instead of wasting it as I've done this year. It's pretty useless so you may as well save it just in case.

        4. Jazz!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          Could really use the chip to your advantage then! Too bad I wasted it 🙁

          1. Rhinos
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 3 months ago

            problem is gw38 likely to include a lot of dead rubbers so no guarantees your 8 expensive attackers will all play

      25. FionnMac
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        1FT and £0.1m in the bank. Can anybody think of anything better to do than save? Ta
