We may have suffered inauspicious starts to the season but there’s no denying it, we just love Fantasy Football.

For all his grumpiness and bile, Granville’s enthusiasm spills over as we both dive into the hot topics of the week: Juan Mata’s decline, Eden Hazard’s rise, the Rooney vs Van Persie question, whether Granville is the dopey one.

All these issues and more are addressed in the next 38-minutes, along with the return of All Aboard, the weekend preview and the first decisions to be made with the ailing ScoutCast XI. It’s my turn to play Pat Rice to Granville’s Arsene Wenger this week and, to script, I prove to be more of a hindrance than a help.

Indulge in the lovefest via this link or, alternatively, get streaming using the handy player below.

    VDV.. the buffoon... What to do, what to do? Wait to see if he starts, or take a hit to get rid? Rumours that he might be leaving for new Hamburg pastures.

        I don't think he's dropping this week at all. It's just that at 9m he's a big hitter and I need them to be playing and scoring me points.

    my thoughts, let me know what you think of it..

    to get ahead of the price rise, do
    ramires -> michu this week
    then torres -> rvp/rooney next week.

    or am i crazy? my other idea was

    torres -> rooney
    yaya -> kagawa/lampard(which one?)
    4 point hit

    Asuming Adebayor WILL start for Spurs against West Brom (90% sure he will, by the way), do you think it is worth taking a -4 point hit to get him in for Torres?

          Ade @ 9.5? I don't get it.

          I don't really see any value for strikers above 9.

          Potential captaincy (3 big guys) is the only reason I'd plump for someone that pricey.

          He's not a bad pick and I'd be in the Adewagon at 9, but 9.5, like Dave is a little steep.

          Would you captain him?

        Defoe is on the tiniest of purple pataches. It would take a manager of epically poor man management skills to cast him aside right now. (Goes to check Spurs' manager this season) Ok, maybe I'll keep my virtual money in my pocket.

              Yeah I plan to keep him for the season (injuries aside) and I can't get in Bale at the moment so Adebayor is not a bad bet I think.

          West Brom are still a bit of a wildcard, esp with Spurs' high line.

          The fixtures are beauiful, and Ade will do ok this season, probably.

          He was real value at 8 last year. This year he is the fifth dearest forward, more than giroud, pod, Tevez, Ba etc.

          Plus further purchases before September + Europa. I'm not sure yet.

            Hmmm. Pls think again. Despite losing, Reading equipped themselves really well and will not be low on confidence going to Sunderland. Torres (I know), Kagawa, Hoilett, or MClean from that bunch, for me.

              u think Torres strongest for captain, I suppose he's a decent option, I'm a sunderland fan so always tempting to gamble on your own player, might switch it to kagawa or torres last minute.

      I don't think so. Newcastle is a difficult game, and he will have the possibility to get some rest after it. His main issue isn't short term fatigue, but long term. RDM will use him if he has to. Either as a sub, or as a starter.

          i answered the united attacking cover just below. don't think its worth a hit for it. and it could be a tight game!

          i'm trying to decide between bale and tevez captain. leaning towards tevez atm.

          and why would you play fabio over boyce?

    To Those interested:

    The objective of this league is to score 50% or higher of the GW's highest score.

    Anyone that does not score this 50% or better in the GW will be booted from the league

    All calculations ending in .5 will be rounded up to the nearest whole number

    Example: GW high = 97 points... 97/2 = 48.5 which is rounded up to 49, anyone not scoring 49 or higher in the group would be booted.

    This competition will begin on GW 2.

    If there is a GW that would normally remove the remaining teams from the league because they failed to score 50% or more of the GW's highest, then of the remaining teams, the highest score wins.

    If I (Tyler Pritts), fail to reach 50% or better in any given GW, I will remain in the group solely to act as admin, my future scores will not count.

    If you have any question, suggestions or comments about this league or joining again in the future, my email is tyler.pritts@gmail.com.

    There's one train of thought that you should captain the player who appears in most other teams. The thinking is that 'everyone' else has him, so they'll be wanting him not to do well ... because you have him as captain.

    Following that line of thinking, the armband should be on one of Torres, Tevez, Rooney, Yaya or Kompany.

    Hmmm.
