The ScoutCast – Episode 227 – Lift Off

A

Both are good, but maybe Ritchie. He takes a lot of NEwcastle's set pieces. Free kick beast.

A, Ritchie is a long range merchant.

Don't go there- could get Bellerin instead.

Tadic 6.5 or Fab 7.0

Ritchie I think but it's not by much, I'd say Mooy and bank the 0.5 if it could go a long way for you

Looks good tbf.

oooh Lanzini.

Don't like Defoe for 8.0 personally- looks good though.

NEW will prob buy another GK so Elliot might not be an option.

Rosenor nailed on?

CRY not really known for clean sheets, so I'd look elsewhere for a 4.5 def than Tomkins (BUR, BOU, STO...)

Would go Fabregas instead of Pedro and upgrade Ramsey and/or Lanzini

Pretty much as good as mine - 10/10

Yes
When you make a team

B

B

Yikes!

Not bad. Defense looks too costly. Midfield looks weak.

I feel Ozil and Milner are a bit overpriced.
Other than that, an pretty good team.

I have no doubt ozil will provide points but id rather Mane Coutinho All for that money. I say switch ozil since you have ramsey. Apart from that then nice team!

Rooney i feel will be a good pick this season, but im definitly going to wait on that on, fixtures are dreadful

Sticking with 433?

If so, I'd upgrade Ramsey and also drop Rooney ffs.

Not keen on Lloris as TOT in Wembley wont be as solid defensively I reckon.

Too much in defence, midfield is weak and Rooney in the forwards

Defoe 3rd spot on your bench?

Lol you need to switch captains each week. Kane and Lukaku blank too from time to time doeneding on fixtures

Whoa- when you said you ignored a player, I thought it was going to be someone like Capoue, McAuley or King.

Not Sanchez!

We're all going to miss out on top players this year - there are too many! But if we start with a few premiums we can switch with 1FT. Tattooing te band on Kanekaku will by my strategy this season - I've messed about too much in the past too.

CB from Roma. Solid defender but I am not sure if he can replace any of the 3 CBs. Heard he is capable of playing RB but also doubt he would get to start ahead of Moses, at least not from the beginning of the season

Yes I think he will replace David Luiz personally

You haven't been paying attention, it's a back 3 with wing backs.

He's either going to replace Luiz at the back, or he's in the back 3 with Azpi taking Moses's place.

Would you start him on the field in 3-5-2 ?

So frustrating to have

new manager

Was benched when he was under injury cloud.

With Martina out, he has almost no competition.

Kane

Currently on Sane & Kane instead of Jesus/Kun & Alli. Might swap it actually.

Zaha for sure

Sorry just read that again. A.

A) wise to start with Lukaku

Who cares about fitting in Arsenal attack? I probably won't start with an Arsenal player and I am a supporter.

Nevermind, I changed it:
Foster, (Fabianski)
Bertrand, Lindeloff, Dawson, (Yedlin, Francis)
Tadic, Alli, Fabregas, Lanzini (RLC)
Kun, Kaku, Firmino

0.0 itb

Lol no way.

He's too injury prone not to be rotated and one bad game and Mourinho will drop him

Looks solid to me. Daniels over Francis?

Would take off Lanzini for Tadic/Redmond, and put in Daniels instead for Francis

Yup, providing Francis is nailed on, you've got a good 'un.

I would think so.
Smith plays in a more midfield (like Dier) when Ake is in the side.

Preseason will tell.

2 CDMs ain't a bad formation to add to their epic defence I'm getting Courtiois now after that thanks for the heads up

Odd deal. Why buy silver when you have gold?

I mean the Matic - Kante combo worked pretty well for us last seasonn

Good night. (NC-USA)
Can always downgrade Defoe if not impressed but he is a proven scorer. Deeney may see some new service and both are on pens.

For some reason I ma too quite tempted with Deeney, seems a potential source of points for cheap

b, there's plenty of choice in the lower bracket defence

B

with 7.5, he has potential
he is not in my team, however. my midfield is pretty much set.

Every year...every year we dream of him turning his huge historical PPG into regular starts and returns...

Just can't see it. In this new 3 CB formation, its gonna be one striker (Lacazette/Giroud) and 2 attacking mids- Ozil will be one then Sanchez/Walcott/Welbeck/New Signing.

Him vs tired legs

That's all

That boat is gone. If he went to a smaller club I would consider. His PPG keep saying get him every year but it rarely works out. Total enigma. Tbf can't see why Wenger does not give him more minutes.

Nailed on ....... for Thursday nights in Kazakhstan.

B

Having to play one of RLC and Barnes is not ideal.

B with Firmino over Defoe

B

I'd say A. I think Kane's captaincy material will make up for Mooy.

Ozil to Ramsey maybe?
Gabbi is a bit iffy, especially since u already have Tadic. But could work out.

Upgrade Gabbi since you have Tadic. (Defoe, Firmino, Deeney)

Downgrade keepers and upgrade 4.0 def

I am also hesitating.. I will probably start the season with Lanzini and switch to Ramsey if he shows form during the first few games.

http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/828031/Chelsea-Tiemoue-Bakayoko-Monaco-Antonio-Conte-Premier-League-Transfer-News-Rumours-Gossip

Will probably be the same as last season. Will get subbed on with the occasional start. Will probably grab a bit of assists.

bakayoko will miss the games in august so with hazard out fabs will play to inject creativity

I'd go for B.

Personally, I would go with A. Bournmouth already had a decent amount of clean sheets, and their new signings might bring more, and Daniels gets the off goal and assist. Alli is self explanatory.

I don't Fab will start too often. I think Zaha might maintain the level he played last year, but I expect Defoe to decline.
