The ScoutCast – Episode 237 – Catnap

Pep sunk his teeth into our Gameweeks, while an old moggy took a chunk out of my partner’s arm, depriving me of my appearance on this week’s ScoutCast. I’m not sure which was more painful.

At the mercy of the local A&E, Jonty, Andy and Az became my other emergency service as they stepped up on this latest episode.

Inevitably, Guardiola’s Man City teamsheet dominates your questions and the ensuing chatter. Elsewhere the boys re-appraise Kane after his Wembley haul, revisit Liverpool with their fixtures about to swing and consider whether the heavy-hitting midfielders are poised for a renaissance ahead of Gameweek 10.

As far as I know, I’ve edited out all the “pussy” jokes.

        Kane ruled out so FPL yellow flag first to make it look like they warned people then will change it to red later 😆

          Surely it's a good thing if casuals have the wrong information?

          He better not be taking the piss! Non-Kane owners must be loving this

        This season is so fun. So many obstacles you have to bridge, curve balls every week...I love it. 🙂

          It gives me something to blame another rubbish
          season on. 🙂

          1. CloudSky

          I couldn't agree more. I'm having my worst season in years and (with Kane, Davies and even Holgate and Chalobah) to sort out I can't see it getting better in a hurry, but objectively I have to admit it's a more challenging and interesting season.

          1. CloudSky
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Exactly this. 🙂

        On WC. Go with Kane or not?

        1. Lecky Legs FC
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          On WC too I was considering Kane > Lukaku bank 0.9 then bring back next GW if fit but I'm not sure now.

          1. DeathoftheParty
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Do this

          2. Js31
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            why would you keep him?

        2. Athletic Nasherbo
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 6 months ago

          I wouldn’t. Yes it’s a transfer but possibility could be out longer plus get him in for cheaper

          1. Js31
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Good point. Who would you go with? Had Aguero & Kane but unsure on both now thinking Morata & Jesus

      10. Kizza_10
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 6 months ago

        Best Kane replacement, already have Aguero & Firmino

        A. Lacazette

        B. Morata

        1. Yankee Toffee

        Is it only that one journo on twitter saying he's out? Tottenhams page and BBC haven't said anything

          Best defender money no object?

          1. Yankee Toffee

          "Things are written all the time about recovery times, especially for hamstring strains. I tend to think about anything up to 3 weeks for a grade 1, anything from between 2 and 8 weeks for a grade 2 hamstring strain and you are looking at pretty much 12 weeks for a grade 3. It can be anything within that."

          1. Yankee Toffee
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            What grade is Kane?

              Nice

              You should be glad. Puts you in a better position. But the way your preaching it makes me think that you’re tempted as well...

          2. FER FUSCH AKE
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            I have Jones on the bench coming in for kane

            • 7 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Shall I play my free chip given my bench is horrendous?

            Foster
            Luiz - Kolasinac - Cedric - Mee
            Salah (c) - Silva - Sterling - Richarlison
            Kane - Aguero

            Myhill - T.Carroll - Goldson (doesn’t play) - McBurnie (doesn’t play)

            For those who bougth Kane at 12.4 and have now him in their team at a 12.5 value, would we be affected by a -0,1 if Kane dropps before CRY?

            1. CloudSky
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 6 months ago

              No. First drop will affect those that bought for 12.5

            2. L'Aeroplanino
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 6 months ago

              no

            6 years, 6 months ago

            If you've taken a hit and then use the free hit chip, do your original get hits get cancelled out or not? I assume the latter but just wanna check.

            1. FER FUSCH AKE
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 6 months ago

              yes the -4s get cancelled

          6. The Polymath
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Won't using a free hit now mean you will lose all the increases in TV you have picked up during the week?

            Bottomed

            1. CloudSky
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 6 months ago

              No, your original team still gets all the rises/drops. You just dont get on those that you have gotten in.

          7. Delhidynamo
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            Well that makes my benching decision easier

            • 9 Years
            6 years, 6 months ago

            1FT, 0.0 ITB - what to do with Kane news!?

            Foster, Elliot

            Monreal, Cedric, Lowton, Naughton, Simpson

            Alli, Salah, Sterling, Atsu, Carroll

            Kane, Jesus, Vardy

              Keep him. Your bench looks strong enough

                • 8 Years

                Agreed. Great bench to absorb this pain.

            So those who are activating their Free Hit chip - are you picking any Man City players? Any of them may run riot against a poor WBA team but if they get benched you're going to be even more upset than usual...

            1. Yankee Toffee
              • 9 Years
              6 years, 6 months ago

              KDB or Silva should be starting
