“Brutal” can be the only way to describe the way the ScoutCast collective round on the mis-fortune of a fellow FFS team member.
I say “misfortune”, in truth, Jonty, Andy and Az join me in showing little sympathy for Spencer’s predicament as we circle his catastrophic 40-point hit and take turns jabbing at the corpse of his Gameweek 36 line-up. When you end up with Victor Anichebe as your captain, it’s difficult to show any mercy.
Spencer’s plight provides some light relief before we delve into our own insecurities following Spurs’ “impossible” defeat to West Ham, as Chelsea prepare to wrap up the title race and ruin our run-in.
Your community questions quiz us on the impact of the inevitable, and, in the light of doubts surrounding Eden Hazard’s prospects, we discuss merits of a swoop for his compatriot Kevin De Bruyne.
Elsewhere, we scrape the barrel for Manolo Gabbiadini alternatives up front and pull up the sofa cushions to hunt for some value in midfield.
