The ScoutCast – Episode 230 – Harried

Boom! First! Sorry for its triviality 🙁

I git rid of Daniels for Hegazi... Cherries have awful fixtures: mci, ARS

Meh, missed the first post.

There are ladettes on here too...

not hard

Not bad.

Don't particularly like Phillips

Will you ever actually play fosu-mensah?

Oooooooooh

Did I say that?! Tbf, I'm rubbish at days of the month. Alphabet. That kind of junior school stuff. Nah, I don't really do any editing these days.

I just like to get that out as the Thursday post for old times sake - I think it was always that night back in the day.

Could pusht it out Wednesday and swap a few things around.

How nailed will Jones be during the Champions League Group Stages?

dawson..
just in case you may fancy triple united attack if they continue to score freely...

Wow your team is very similar to mine. I am tempted to sell JWP rather than start a £4.5m mid but the options at his price aren't much better.

Highly unlikely

Nope won't rise tonight

Still debating the best Huddersfield option - Schindler seems set up for BPS so currently pushing him in the Watchlist. He is our top 4.5.

I'm still not convinced by Huddersfield. I prefer Dunk personally.

Think Huddersfield luck will run out.

Not turned by Richarlisons stats?

I think if you have Ritchie as your only issue, you're sitting pretty and I agree - no urgency to get rid - the options on that bracket are still settling down. It's difficult to read currently. We need a tad more data.

I'm sticking. Fixtures and set pieces. And hope.

He's totally my type on paper.

Stats don't count for much to the casuals - that's how bandwagons get rolling early on.

It's a long time until may and I'm hoping he fulfills his potential.

Looks a good move, do it.

Know the feeling (I'm 3m). Did salah/fraser to pogba/richarlison but not sure about it at all.

not convinced about silvas fpl potential..
otherwise i really like it..

Pretty happy with mine actually as well so problems are not far away 🙂

Daniels to jones or Trippier is all I'm left with, or I save my FT

Yes. Once my FT is done, I think I'll feel the same but it's that classic Thursday going into Friday feeling.

How quickly it can evaporate away as soon as the teamsheet reveal a nasty and the cleanies start disappearing.

Hoping for big things from messers Eriksen, Mané, Kane and Lukaku!

Hoping for a decent gameweek this week so I won't have to wildcard just yet. Will try and hold out till GW5.

We almost want him to play within himself.

Stand out and return vs Liverpool and he'll draw some currently unplanned Wildcards I reckon.

They'll be a lot of window shopping, that's for sure.

Lukaku for Laca, give Sanchez a miss for me probably.

Enjoyed the stream Andy. You know you're doing well when those jealous weirdos try waste your time.

I'm staying away for a bit, £12m is a lot for a person who probably has his mind elsewhere. A brace will change that quickly though.

If he looks at it this weekend I'll be on. Can do it with a -4 with KDB and Valencia out to Sanchez and 4.5. Will still have Kane, Lukaku and Salah. And Alonso who I got in this week with my carried transfer.

I like a bit of both.

Can you not go A and play RLC as the fourth mid so you can upgrade Siggy to Eriksen/Mane?

Also, do you need 2 x 4.5 defenders benched? Surely your first choice three will play in most GW's with Hegazi back-up?

Maybe a double up on Spurs kids with Erik for KDB?

Or downgrade KDB to finance laca>Kane?

Yeah. Want.

I would have waited until the transfer window closes. If they sign Sandro or spend big on a left back, you're screwed.

There since GW 1...at ease

They may sign a back up left wing back to rotate with Alonso, between PL and CL, before the window shuts. Keep an eye out

Wouldn't mind seeing a clean sheet first.

Thought about a couple of ways to do it tonight including with a hit - not sure it's worth it

Means losing Salah to Antonio or Gabbiadini to Abraham. Not sure I like either right now

me too. He's sorted for the season.

He has to start. I don't believe Mendy will be ready so it could be Danilo with Fernannadinho RB and Toure in mid.

I'd always play the BOU pair I think. Just have more about them.

Get rid imo, Jesus is more than enough cover

Luke is very insightful. Really like hearing from him in the scoutcast.

Yes. I do try to bring Luke in when I can. But noted.

I'll done on Mkhitaryan for the rest of the season no matter how badly he does from here

Nah. It doesn't go out live in the UK. Good job. I'm a nervous wreck as it is.

Really? Why would they splash out money for a bench player, doesn't make sense

Think he'll 100% be no.1

Also -

Get French Football‏ @GFFN 2m2 minutes ago

Serge Aurier underwent a medical with Tottenham Hotspur today in Paris ahead of a possible move, according to tomorrow's L'Équipe.

As good a option as Trippier is FPL wise. He's poor defender and not of CL and Top 4 quality. Aurier is one of the world's best rb's.

Was directed at Andy but thought i'd share my view

My team:

Foster-Myhill
Cedric-Stephens-Simpson-Naughton-Long
Mane-Salah-Pogba-Atsu-Caroll
Mounie-Kane-lukaku

Alonso

I think there's a lot of love for Davies. We have him second in the Watchlist now. Probably in Picks tomorrow.

Trippier is tempting me. 0.2 less aswell.

That 0.1 rise is a bit of a pain

I do but a certain Mr Rose is due back soon....

Good point.

I still want to see a bit more before I make a judgement on that.

Still don't know if Mane is worth 0.5m over Salah. Lets see how they do at Arsenal.

I do think that Firmino on pens could turn out to be a bargain though

Think Mane best player for 'pool, but as you say would have had the least points to show for it. Salah is a predator, would be happy for him to score tap ins all season.

I have Salah and Firmino (couldn't push to Mane and Firmino). To be honest they should all score well so any (or more than one) are a good option. If you already have one I wouldn't waste an FT switching to another one

I own Mané but with rotation looming I can see me going without any Pool from GW6 when I expect I'll want Sánchez.
