The ScoutCast – Episode 41 – Strait Jacket

4 November 2010 566 comments

Granville

It’s a flip-flop and we’re not talking about our fantasy island risk footwear. Courtesy of a dream wildcard, in 3 weeks I’ve turned a significant deficit around to a 20 point lead.

Mark is miffed, he feels trapped. Malouda, his comfort blanket now resembles a strait jacket, tightening its grip on his budget as he wrestles with the consequence of finally selling him.

Listen to us as we go tête-à-tête on the subjects of buying versus selling price, profit versus points and success versus failure, or better described as Granville versus Mark 😉

Help yourself to this humdinger of an episode via this link here.

Alternatively you can stream using the player below.

NB. Addendum – The Malouda injury hadn’t been revealed to Mark at the time of this recording. Ouch

  Why would you take out a fit player with a 50/50 chance of being selected when ou have VDV with 0% chance of playing? I've sold Nani (who is out for one, and has a tough game afterwards, which he may not even be fit for) for Arteta.

What's happened to the FPL site - on the "My Team" page, none of the "i" boxes are there and the yellow swap player button has turned into a tick box (no red flags either)

On the transfer page, none of the players have the "i" box to click on. I've tried Firefox and Explorer so doesn't seem to be a browser issue.

Anyone else seeing this issue?

        I'm in a private co serviced office within a public sector building, just switched from the public sector wifi router to the private sector wifi router and all is now fine. How weird. Not that you all care, but no one else in office yet so needed to rant somewhere!

I'm playing Nani so relying on auto-sub. 2 sub spots taken up by Malouda and Jara.

So out of the following who to bench?
Varney, Alcarez, Coleman

  I would say coleman. Blackpool always look likely to score and coleman may not get much gametime

    Bad call imo.
    
    Blackpool aren't that good, and against an Everton defense that's conceded 1 in 5 games, they're unlikely to get anything.
    
    Coleman's also out of position so offers potential returns.
    
    Definitely bench Alcaraz of those 3, but you might have to play all 3 anyway because of injuries.

considering i have both vdv/nani and they'll most likely be auto-subbed, what should my bench order be between these three?

currently:

carroll
elmander
coleman

  Elmander, Carroll, Coleman - both the first 2 could easily score big points

  Coleman should be first - he may not get a clean sheet but huge potential of attacking points. Blackpool are unlikely to win two home games in a row.
