The ScoutCast – Episode 55 – Rudely Interrupted

Having been stalled by the international break and a glamorous trip back to Manchester, I take my seat alongside Mark in the studio once again, desperately wrestling for air time against the prolific gabber spewed from the ScoutCast host. Mark tries to be on his best behaviour in this episode, knuckles wrapped by a frustrated listener deprived of my pearls of wisdom by his constant interruptions, you can sense the intense effort as Mark holds his silence.

It’s not easy; once again we’ve a contentious issue to discuss – Rooney’s dubious assist back in Gameweek three still nags away at those without the folically challenged hot-shot. The new assist ruling gets the ScoutCast treatment then, accompanied by the usual half-arsed analysis of the Gameweek fixture list and the likely protagonists involved.

Click here to see if Mark holds his tongue.

    Def - Brown, Kompany, Ward, Riise, S. Taylor, Brown
    Mid - Silva, Walcott, Young, Cabaye, Anderson
    Fwd - Suarez, Dzeko, Sturridge

          CTC was in fact doing better until 1 Sep when they reset the percentages, Arteta being the victim (fell from 50%, or even more, don't remember) to 0%, others(Nasri, Dzeko, Adam, Ward) rose that morning so it didn't mean anything for their percentages.

          Total FPL hasn't reset it and that's why they were right about this one.

      No, there is a slight chance Hilario will play.

      Hennessey would have to score 4 points just to break even, if Hilario doesn't play (which he may).

      It says the SELLING fee is rounded up. You would make £0.3m from the sale x 50% = £0.15m rounded up is £0.2m therefore you get £8.8m minus £0.2m - £8.6m

      It's not rounded up, and that would be silly, really.

      You could buy a player, let him go up £0.1M then sell for the £0.1M profit. This week you could've got an extra £2M (or a lot more probably) in net value when playing the WC. The team values would be massive.

      Lately it's all about Walcott and RVP. Probably due to people being desperate to catch up to the Rooney/Young drubbery and Arsenal's "easy" fixtures. The problem being fixtures haven't meant a lot, many teams will be going for the kill while Arsenal are wounded and who's to say Rooney/Young won't carry on scoring hugely.

    So when a player is 'red flagged' is there price protected?

      I had thought so. But then players flagged have their prices dropping this year and the protection seems to start when they return from injury!

        Yeah i was thinking that, Agbonlahor was protected once he returned, and VDV has dropped twice now.
        He could be 5.5 by time he returns 😀

      The maximum was over 100%, but the minimum was under. So the real value was probably somewhere in between the two.

    Hi christina, I'm interested to know why you say he wont. I was wondering how rvp wasn't on the first page of the risers list until just this morning, he's a must! surely now he's creeped on, and the masses who log on today see his fixture they are gonna be going mad for him?

      According to totalfpl RVP is on 3.2% min and max. Not sure what that means.

      Think it means he probably won't rise by Saturday morning.

        Fiso Crack the Code have been bang on this season as far as I have seen. If anyone has been over 100% of a night then by 07:00 the next morning they go up 0.1

      I don't worry about it too much, sometimes I make a trade one day earlier then the deadline if I know he a player is gonna rise/fall.

      This week was the first time I made a trade on the very first day of the gameweek Torres ---> Dzeko

      and it looks like I'm gonna be about .6 better off <_<

    I think Ramsey will do great with the new additions at Arsenal. Anyone else putting him in as their Arsenal option, especially with his price decrease. Also what do you think the chances of Sturridge playing are?

    Have I got my captains right?
    Should I trade Ward out for a 4m to free up so cash to allow for quick transfers in the future?

    So Im currently going into the weekend with no City Attack (Bar Yaya) so would it be sensible to trade Suarez > Dzeko for 4 points?

    Better next 5 games, every man and his dog has him so could destroy me but could be rotated?

    I am playing the 'Who has the most doubtful team.' game. Here is my entry:

    Given (Doubtful)
    Baines (Doubtful)
    Bent (Doubtful)
    Long (Doubtful)
    Orr (Doubtful)

    :O

    I have already made my transfer (Torres-->Dzecko) but i am willing to take a 4pt hit, and I am thinking, given their doubtful flags, of the following:

    Bent-->RVP (for fixtures)
    Bent-->Rooney (for form)
    Baines-->Mertsacker (for fixtures)
    Baines-->Bosingwa (for form)

    I'm sure that most of those marked as doubtful will actually play but I feel a 4pt hit is needed. Anyone like the above? Have an alternative? Comments much appreciated.

      Go for Bent->RVP for sure mate.
      Worth the 4 point hit and a great captain choice.
      Plus it'll be a good long-term tansfer.
      I really want RVP in this week, i have Rooney, Dzeko, Suarez but given their price rises, i'm reluctant to sell them.
