The ScoutCast – Episode 238 – Spooked

2,808 Comments

Whether it’s Pep’s rotation, Jonty’s runaway facial hair or a rogue horse in Andy’s front garden, the ScoutCast crew are decidedly spooked in this week’s Halloween episode.

Downed by a bout of Labyrinthitis – which is as nasty as it sounds – I’m forced to duck out as Jonty, Andy, Granville and Az run riot.

Your community questions help to keep them in check, forcing the quartet to once again assess City rotation, while giving views on Chelsea’s big-hitters, a Foxes revival and a slew of budget defenders.

Jonty rolls out his “ghouls imminent” table, while Andy unknowingly mocks my affliction from afar with back-to-back ear puns; in between they preview the weekend’s action to reveal their captain and transfer picks.

This ScoutCast was first beamed live via our YouTube channel on Tuesday night. Be sure to subscribe to get notice of future live episodes.

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

    If he went with form he would play Aguero, Sane and Sterling, but trying to guess what Pep will do is impossible....

    That's useless Diouf stuck on the wing again. What needs must for Hughes anyway? Who is he replacing on the wing?

      He actually scores more pts from the wing than when playing as a striker.

        I don't think this is accurate. His recent hauls have come when he's been up front and that's why I got him in the first place.

              Look at his heatmaps for those games. He is definitely playing on the wing no matter what the tweets claim.

    Who do we think will start for defence at Spurs this weekend? Toby is injured.

    Trippier/Davies starting or will they get benched for Aurier etc?

    Really struggling to choose between Doucoure or Choupo for today for the long term.
    Watford scores easily,but Doucoure plays deeper. Also, Choupo is more expensive .

    Any suggestions?

    Looking at this defence after International break as good value, decent fixtures and less rotation risk. Is it OK or should I have more premium defenders in there?

    Gents, apologies for what I believe is probably a stupid question, however, I need some clarity. I have had Salah in my team for pretty much the whole season so far. On my team, it says he's worth £9.1m, however on the list of players in transfers, it says he's worth £9.3.

    This tells me his price has risen by £0.2m over the course of the season. What I'm confused about is, when I try to remove him, it says I've only got £9.1 in the bank. Should I not see £9.3m because of his current worth?

      You bought him for 9.0. For every 0.2m he rises, you make 0.1m profit.

      So if he goes to 9.4m you sell for 9.2 and of he drops to 9.2m you still sell for 9.1 as you do now

        Hit 'list view' above you squad on the transfers page. This will show you purchase price, sell price and cost price

    Thinking of rolling my ft until after the break.
    Is it worth instead to do the transfers below as I'm chasing in my mini cash league?

    Sanchez Bertrand out

    Kane Jones in
    Then C Kane?

    Any thoughts really appreciated.
