Rarely has the ScoutCast witnessed the collision of such contrary forces. With the radical “Andy G” dropping in alongside the self-proclaimed “dullard” Fantasy Manager, Jonty, we were always going to be in for an entertaining ride.

Foxes fan Andy arrives to express his emotions with both Leicester and his Fantasy Premier League lineup riding high. We look back on his implausible captaincy of Riyad Mahrez back in Gameweek 1, whilst picking out the highlights of Andy’s rip-roaring “maverick” season.

Another round of questions from you, the community, has us attempting to unpick the looming double Gameweek scenarios, whilst “Andy M” takes time to dispel the template myth. The four of us then turn our attentions to Gameweek 30, with beatnik boss Andy G revealing his rebellious streak with some crazy transfer talk.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first shown live via our YouTube channel on Wednesday. Be sure to subscribe for details of future episodes.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

              Expecting a huge 2 points from both of them!

                    9 years, 9 months ago

                    Cant complain. (MY wife might 😀 ) But in all honesty its going well so far. First night home last night, and went ok. Not sure what to expect, so i have to take it day to day basis. Looking forward to exploring this uncharted territory 😀

                    1. Irish Madridista ⭐
                      • 15 Years
                      9 years, 9 months ago

                      Proud of ya :')

                      Baby steps dude, baby steps 😉

          2. NABIL - FPL otai
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            I wish I can, but I really think I should play Dier, Komp and Simpson

            1. Irish Madridista ⭐
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              Yeah, you probably should.. fantastic defence ya got there Nabil.

              I presume nobody in mid / for is droppable?
              Nah, keep as is.

    2. HVT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I suppose Danny tho I'm playing the Stoke double up, but I don't own Danny so easy call for me.
      Who would you think is more likely to score-Swansea or Soton is what is ask myself, if I'm honest I think the swans might just edge it Nabil.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Hey HVT.

        Yeah maybe SWA just edge it - good to look it that way. Plus I always love "go big or go home".

        Cheers all of you

        2. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 15 Years

              Sounds good 🙂

              If you send €50 to 123 Fake Street, Ratoath, Co. Meath, Ireland, I promise to put on a €100 bet 😀

              (I could be a Nigerian Prince if that helps convince ya?)

              1. Kings of Lyon ★
                • 15 Years

  2. _Gunner

    Bench one:

    A- Arnie
    B- Siggy

    6. _Gunner
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Thanks All.

  3. La Roja
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    What to do here

    Flappyhandski
    Walkerinho Kompany Simpson VvD
    Alli Mahrez Arnie
    Kun Kane Vardy

    Hennessy* Payet* Ozil* Bellerin*

    0.5m ITB and 1 FT

    A) Payet ➡ Yaya
    B) Ozil:arrow: Silva
    C) Save FT even though no bench this GW

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I'm in the same position as you and I'm doing A.
      See below.

      1. La Roja
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        It's Payet though, feels wrong to remove him, not sure.

        1. super zlatan
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          True. But if city hit 4 past Norwich I want to be involved in the party.
          I can get Payet back for the DGW.

    2. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      A

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      C since I'm a big fan of Payet and Ozil

    4. Pompel
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      A) if you plan to WC in GW33 anyway and can take a loss if bringing Payet back

    5. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I reckon A.....

  4. super zlatan
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    So it looks like I'm rolling with the following team with no hits.

    Butland
    Toby. Daniels. Fuchs
    Yaya. Mahrez. Siggy. Alli
    Kane. Kun. Vardy

    Subs. Vvd. Ozil. Bellerin.

    Look ok?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Looks good. I'd still prefer Silva over Yaya though.

      1. super zlatan
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        How come Nabil?
        Statistics show yaya is the better pick

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          I'm not a man of stats. Pure over the stands view 😛

          Anyway GL with it, solid pick nonetheless

          1. super zlatan
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            Cheers Nabil. I haven't pulled the trigger yet so I could still be persuaded with silva.

            Will wait for the presser

    2. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Similar to mine. Also no hits. Looks decent.

    3. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Strong team that and a sub, very nice....

    4. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Good stuff, definitely save transfer. Who's your (C)?

      Alli?
      Mahrez?
      Kun?
      Kane?

      Please don't say Vardy..

      1. Irish Madridista ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        FUCHS?!

        1. super zlatan
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Haha

          Between Kun or Kane.

      2. super zlatan
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        This team is with using my ft of Payet > yaya

        1. Irish Madridista ⭐
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Ah.. would ya want Payet back?

          Not too pushed on City mids myself, feeling in my waters.

          1. super zlatan
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            I still have my WC to get him back for the DGW.

  5. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Liverpool players looks best option from gw33 onwards but unfortunately Firmino seems to be only one worth considering.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but Liverpool have 2 x dgw and no blanks?

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Correct.

    2. Pompel
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Mignolet for second BB goalie worth a shout though

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Well Moreno is only 4.6 😉

      2. Irish Madridista ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Not many save points to be had.. 😛

        1. Prøphet
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Not sure he can keep a sheep drawn on paper safe.

    3. Hank Scorpio
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      What if they are still in EURO though. Could be rotation.

  6. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Season in season out I always have this bad feeling having YYT. I cant stand him arriving @ the party late. That said I have not yet done my transfer. Someone talk to me.

    1. Kings of Lyon ★
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Hi, how are you? Are you up to anything exciting this weekend?

    2. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      *Its Silva vs YYT by the way.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Have you looked at Shaqiri instead?

  7. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Kompany will score. I can feel it in my nuts

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      He is certainly due.

    2. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Fuchs is due a 15 point haul this week.

      Justsayin. 😉

      1. Irish Madridista ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        (C)?

    3. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Your nuts must be vibrating hard..

    4. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Not sure that's Kompany. I'd maybe see a doctor.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        ^^^.

    5. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Felt that last week, lost me about 30k in rank 😛

    6. Pompel
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      He won't - I have him in my team 🙁

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

    Paloschi to start this week lads? Draft related question 🙂

    1. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Assume so but he wasn't great last time

    2. BENOIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I'm in the same situation........ Guidolin isn't at the game, and I am pretty sure Curtis doesn't fancy Paloschi.

      I don't know whether to waste a FT by switching him out :/

  9. Rhinos
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    My biggest weakness in this game is not rectifying mistakes ie not putting Mahrez back in after dropping him.
    It's almost never too late to put popular players in rather than low % differentials.
    Having said that I've just done Barkley to Lamela instead of Costa to Kane 😆

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Jesus wept. 🙁

      1. Rhinos
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Jesus shouldn't waste his tears on me

  10. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Listening to the Scoutcast, my brain is fried trying to understand this blank/DGW stuff.

    Two questions:

    A. Do we expect DGW news today?
    B. If making transfers this GW, players from which teams should we look to get players from and which teams should we avoid currently? Do any teams stand out in either category bearing in mind limited fixtures this GW?

    1. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Man city Newcastle tge only 2 playing thus week and gave a double so get one of them but Newcastle options are punty to say the least

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers Rhinos, thinking of doing Wijnaldum > Yaya

  11. HVT
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    To clarify 'stats have swayed me from last page'
    This is a reference to some research Balders did on Aguero (c)
    One last repost for Sergio Aguero vs Norwich

    2011/12
    Home: 5-1 win, 1 goal
    Away: 6-1 win, 2 goals

    2012/13
    Home: 2-3 loss, blank (40 minutes played as a sub appearance)
    Away: 4-3 win, 1 goal, 1 assist

    2013/14
    Home: 7-0 win, 1 goal, 3 assists
    Away: injured

    2015/16
    Home: injured
    FA Cup Away: 3-0 win 1 goal, 1 assist

    Total: 6 games, 5 starts, 6 goals, 5 assists

    At least three of Martin, Bennett, Bassong, Ruddy and Rudd played in every match above.

    Aguero (C) QED.

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Cheers HVT. That may have made my decision.

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      his highest away haul was 2 goals...

      Mahrez's biggest home haul was also 2 goals, but he did it in 76 minutes vs Sunderland, who are above Newcastle in the table.. plus MNF.

      Mahrez (C) QED.

      😉

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        i'm with you on this one.

        Sorry HVT 😉

        1. HVT
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          No prob, as an owner I hope he does well, all this uncertainty at Newc has me thinking of an improvement there too, Leicester have become the 1-0 of late and I think Agueros ceiling v Norwich is a hattrick, whereas Mahrez may be lower, something also telling me Vardy may be better than him this week but that's just guy. If it were Suarez playing Norwich would you think twice?
          I do t think so 😉

            Well i told this exact thing to IM last week. 1 goal from Mahrez = 11 points.

            If it were Suarez playing for City away from home, I'd think twice 😉
            Can't see Kun getting an away day hattrick at the moment.

            I fancy Vardy to get returns, but I fancy Mahrez to get higher returns.
            Aguero / Vardy / Kane are safer options, but Alli / Mahrez are the explosive mids this week imo.

                Might prefer glue if its strong one.

              It could conceivably end up one of those weeks where the above mentioned all do well, I'm not overly worried as I (like most) own all-sure a blank will hurt but with 11 starters I may offset this.

              1. Prøphet
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 9 months ago

                I do think it might be one of those weeks that all of them are within 3-4 points from each other. Dont mind honestly, as good of a week to take a "punt" as any.

      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      🙂

    3. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      and Norwich won't probably just sit back and try get 0-0 draw. Could be open game

    4. Moosie the Staggie
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I was originally on Kane (c) as Villa are shocking , but Kun is Kun. Best striker in the league so had to go with him. This makes me feel better about the switch.
      Cheers to you and balders

    5. Prøphet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Oh, saw that post from Balders. Great stats, but MCI not looking that great offensively Away this season. having just said that i brought in Silva earlier this week 😀

    6. Pompel
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      And I've been close to switching to Kane - now you got me swaying.

      1. Rhinos
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Screw stats. It's a refreshed Kane v Villa.

  12. Sylas
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Forster (Cech)
    VVD Toby Simpson Kompany (Wolly)
    Alli Mahrez Siggy (Payet, Antonio)
    Aguero Kane Vardy

    1 FT & 5.1 ITB

    A> Payet/Antonio to Silva/Yaya
    B> Save ~ Play 4 defenders and go with the formation above

    * I'm really not keen on playing 4 defenders but would love to know what everyone else thinks. I'm also chasing in my ML where most of them are unprepared for GW30.

    1. Moosie the Staggie
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      4 defenders is fine in a week where MANY will not even field 11 players.
      You are gtg. Save the transfer

      1. Moosie the Staggie
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Can easily see 2 or 3 clean sheets there for you anyway

      2. Sylas
        • 10 Years

        Thank you!

        1. Moosie the Staggie

          No prob.

    9 years, 9 months ago

    If holding 11 starters this week and 8 potential GW34 DGWers, would you be planning to:

    A) save the WC until GW36
    B) WC in GW32/33

    ELLIOT, HENNESSEY
    KOMPANY, BELLERIN, JEVANS, Wolly, Simpson
    YAYA, SANCHEZ, Mahrez, Alli, Arnie
    AGUERO, Kane, Vardy

    Bank 1.5m, 1FT

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Would wait on clarity of fixtures.
      No point speculating too much.

    2. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      You're in a good position where you don't have to make a choice yet. See how the DGW fixtures turn out first - but if you need to make a transfer before then, do it with a DGW34 in mind (even if it is a guess)

      1. Blame It On Rio-ddermorten
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        This.

  14. The Mighty Whites
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    2FT, 0.6 ITB

    Butland / Myhill

    Cahill / Monreal / Dawson / Fuchs / Smith

    Ozil / Firmino / Payet / Mahrez / Watson

    Aguero / Kane / Ighalo

    Is it worth doing a -12 for this? -

    Cahill - Wimmer
    Firmino - Silva / Toure
    Payet - Sigurdsson
    Ozil - Eriksen
    Ighalo - Vardy

  15. Backup Dancer
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Would you lose Ozil for Toure if you got him at his current price (so no lost value). This would be for a hit too.

    1. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Not sure getting rid of Ozil is a good idea. has good fixtures after blank.

      whats your team like ?

      1. Backup Dancer
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Mahrez and Siggy in midfield.

        3 up front 3 at the back. All Spurs City Leicester.

        I think I'd prefer to take the hit in defence.

  16. No Pirlo No Party
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Good Mornings FFS.
    Current GK situation is DDG + McCarthy.

    Looking to rectify that this GW. Who is the preferred GK until WC? Hart or Fabianski?

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Hart

      1. No Pirlo No Party
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Thanks Zlatan.

        Currently looking at DDG + Cresswell --> Hart + Williams

        I'm not too sure how this affects DGW 34. Who are the teams in contention? Will be advantageous to plan transfers with DGW players in mind.

  17. Will - Fantasy Football Hub
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Everyone set in Sky game? Which Leicester player are you backing for captaincy in MNF?

    Here's my latest post:

    1. HVT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Voted Vardy, similar team. Not sure on Siggy this week but saying that Fab ain't exactly tearing the place up either-may be worth it, I suppose it depends on what value you place on the transfer there's a pile up ahead so maybe hold? You still have a good amount out this week Guru.

      1. Will - Fantasy Football Hub
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers HVT. Yeah, Fabregas bonus collection seems to have halted in recent weeks, otherwise I would probably hold. I would really like the fixture list to be updated with the doubles to get an idea of how many I might need for captaincy swaps!

        1. HVT
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years

          This alone prob is worth the save.

  18. Jafooli

    Yaya has only two double digit hauls all season. GW1 and last week 😕

    1. Prøphet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      MCI mids have been dreadful bare KDB ups and downs. And i just brought Silva in.

      1. Moosie the Staggie
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        This is why I'm thinking of going without and waiting for De Bruyne to come back

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years

          I went with Silva 😛

  19. Jafooli

    Do we reckon Eriksen will start on Sunday?

    1. Camp No No

      Yes.

    2. Camp No No

      I don't know about others, but I decided that you and I, WE reckon that he starts.

      Early substitution last night indicates he will

        1. Moosie the Staggie

          No prob

  20. Camp No No
    • 12 Years

    Why was Studge subbed last night? Injury?

    Is Rose fit to play?

    What else?

    1. No Pirlo No Party
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Klopp said it was a bit of everything (back from injury, protecting him, match fitness and it was also for a change in formation to 4-1-4-1). Sturridge said he was fine in the post match interview.

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Game was won. Save him for a better team.

    4. Camp No No

  21. Laurel and Vardy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Start Butland or Hart this GW?
    Thanks.

    1. Irish Madridista ⭐
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Tough one that...

      I'd probably go Butland, Norwich aren't normally complete pushovers at home offensively.

      1. Moosie the Staggie
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Butland for me too

  22. Blame It On Rio-ddermorten
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Has there been a conclusion on whether or not it matters if a team has the early game on Saturday in terms of goals/points?

    Other than "saving" your captain for later, is there any stats to back up not choosing Aguero (c) because of the early fixture?

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Few months ago someone posted statistic early ko being statistically low scoring.

      1. Backup Dancer
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        That was just based on this season up to around October though so not a strong sample. Would be interesting to see it now.

  23. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Having 2FT on a Friday is a great feeling.

    1. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Realizing on Saturday afternoon that forgot to use even one of them, is not.

  24. BENOIT
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Guidolin not being well enough for the game this weekend doesn't bode well for Paloschi, does it !?

  25. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Eriksens stats strong?

    Is he on the goals/assists imminent tables?

    1. Kings of Lyon ★
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Yes, but after appearing last night he may be on the rest imminent table

      1. Rhinos
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Can't see it, he's used to running miles abd Poch clearly wants to play his big guns in the league

      2. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Subbed earlyish though KOL?

        1. Kings of Lyon ★
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          True.

    2. Camp No No

      Pretty decent creation/shots, but not inside the box. Not too great.

          1. Pompel
            • 11 Years

            Worth getting in Yaya or Siggy from now until WC GW33, Doos? (no room for Eriksen, I'm afraid)

  26. Smurf
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Bench Simpson or VVD? I'm already playing Fuchs.

    1. Moosie the Staggie
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      VVD for me

  27. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Chelsea are only 7pts behind Man Utd 😯

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      and Liverpool has actually a chance to reach ucl spot 😯

  28. BBC_TF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    i have 14 starters and a FT so I can optimise my team a bit.

    Should I do:
    A/ Arnie to Yaya
    B/ Arnie to Silva
    C/ Hold Arnie vs SOU

    1. Moosie the Staggie
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I honestly prefer Arnie to a City mid

    2. Aussie Rules
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      C - good option this week so no need to waste a trade

  29. ♤TeddyBear♤
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Kane or Aguero captain? Reasons behind it would be outstanding

    1. Moosie the Staggie
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Kun. Best player in the league against a poor team. Kane a couple of blanks in a row now

      1. Moosie the Staggie
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Woops scored against Arsenal

      2. foley_fd
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Apart from his last game where he scored, you mean?

    2. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Kane since Villa are way worse than Norwich.
      I honestly want Mahrez over Kun as well, but that was before the McLauren sacking rumors/sky sports news

      1. ♤TeddyBear♤
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        I am swaying towards kane. When teams are fighting relegation you expect a tough game. VILLA are doomed and lets be honest liverpool took 6 off them
