The ScoutCast – Episode 61 – Double Dutch

3 November 2011 1367 comments

Granville

Just like the Dutch duo of Van der Vaart and Van Persie, Mark and I keep on delivering, week in week out. With over 60 episodes under our belts, we’ve almost got the hang of it, the banter now nearing the levels of Compo, Foggy and Clegg. Another 300 episodes should crack it.

Like our Sunday night sitcom anti heroes, we once again we deliver the regular formula. A mini-league round-up, a miffed from me, the “all aboard” sift through the bandwagons all leading into our weekend preview. Then we both roll down a hill in a bath tub.

It’s all here. Apart from the last bit about the bath tub.

have 2 free transfers. is it worthwhile ditching Aguero to get RVP, I would need to downgrade elsewhere to fund it, someone like Sinclair.

I think Aguero will come good so am reluctant to get rid.

      In the context of the bandwagons on this site it would seem so, but there really is absolutely nothing wrong with captaining Aguero at QPR. Come back to me when he's captained Junior Hoilett and we'll talk.

  Its impossible to cover every attacking base. If you think Aguero will come good, stick with it! They will both have there moments, Aguero early season, RVP now, could easily swing back to Aguero

  Absolutely no need to get rid of Aguero for RVP whatsoever. He didn't play mid-week, so is pretty much nailed on to start this weekend. I suspect there'll be quite a few goals for City again this weekend, so he should be in the points.

  Can I just ask why?
  
  IMO this is a waste of time. If you want people to tell you how good your team is then just ask!
  
  It's impossible to say. For example it depends on where Rooney plays vs Sunderland and if Silva is fit for a start, never mind a load of other factors.

Please help me with my team for this week. After a bad start to the season I’m reasonably happy with my team now and I’ve made it into the top 7000.

I’ve got 2 free transfers for this week, 3 million in the bank and probably going to use my wild card next week so the two I bring in this week could be for one this week only. I was thinking of gambling on JS Park for Moses and one other.

    I think they'll get 3-5 CSs in the next 10. Not great but with Baines he'd be a good option if he was classed as a midfielder at say 6.5 but factor in the clean sheets he'll pick up I think he's worth it.

really looking forward to this g/w.made my 2 free transfers already to avoid price drops/rises so fingers crossed on the injury front. 9 home players and 2 decent fixtures for my 2 aways (who are both defenders as well). Im optimistic for a strong 70 points at least so knowing this game that should prob be mid 20's with 3/4 injured lol. nah should be good.. heres my team...
hart
bosingwa dunne simpson
cabaye murphy eagles walcott
rooney suarez van persie

the only thing left to do is captain one of the front three.. probably suarez but i will pick over is top of the captains poll. (have good faith in you people ;p)

  NOOOOOOOOO. You will want kompany back after the break.....clean sheets will be few and far between and he could be the man to get them for you. Anyone else you can swap for Evans.
  
  I've just done N Taylor to Jones....felt a bit flushed,like.
  
  I always think with transfers will the new recruit improve my team and is he better than the one I'm ditching. P Jones is better than N taylor....but is Evans really a better choice than Kompany?

    Normally I'd agree, but I kinda need some defenders who are going to score more than 1 pt this week though.
    
    Including his ban, Kompany has 2 good fixtures in the next 6. I was thinking Jones or Santos, but if I trade down to Evans I have enough to go Ade > Hernandez up front next week. Its very tempting.

A bit of help needed if anyone has a spare minute

Team:
Vorn (Ruddy)
RTaylor, NTaylor, Jenrique (Shorey, Kompany)
Silva, Ramsey, VDV, Cabaye, Sinclair
Roonpig, RVP, Best
0.2 in bank

Team is a mess. Shorey doesn't play, Kompany suspended, injury doubt with Silva, Best is dire and have two Newcastle and Swansea players, plus potential Rooney playing in midfield
Dont have a wildcard 🙁

Do I:
Get rid of Kompany for Jones to ensure I'll get 11 players this week
Take a hit and do Kompany for Evans and upgrade Best to Surridge and pray the 4 point hit pays off
Do Shorey to Evans and keep Kompany for the next few weeks
Keep my transfer so have 2 after international week and pray for a 0-0 between pool and Swansea
Or any other ideas would be welcome.
