Wake up and smell the coffee. The ScoutCast returns to jolt us back into life and get us prepped for another Gameweek. After another dullard international break, we come back to life over 100 minutes, delivering the usual mix of chatter, banter, debate and community spirit.

Resigned to mini-league defeat, Granville enjoys pointing out how I’m oh so wrong on the price rise tax, James McClean pre-season and Maynor Figueroa’s Gameweek potential. Jonty crashes in having leaped above me in the contributors league for a quick Rooney-themed gloat, followed by another “Full Jonty”, which this week puts focus on a “no hits please, I’m cautious” Fantasy manager from the Scout community. All the regulars squeeze in amongst that lot to deliver a lengthy wake-up call.

Splash your face with the cold water of a Gameweek countdown via this link or down the pro-plus hit via the handy player below.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

        Assuming there's no Heco08 stealing my limelight this would be my guess:

        Elliot

        Simpson, Yanga-Mbiwa, Taylor, Jonas

        Anita, Cabaye,

        Sissoko

        Gouffran Cisse Marveaux

        Could be Perch at RB/LB/CM/CB .. Jonas could be in CM, Mbiwa could go to fullback but above is my best guess.

              I mean, either way we won't have the ball that much so he won't be THAT attacking. Should be useful for the 2 subsequent fixtures though.

        It's pretty much fact that they will but I would still wait until the FA cup game to decide to ship him out.

      It just struck me that Distin looks like a great pick at 5.3m right now. Only selected by 1.3%, good fixtures this week, double coming up, decent/good fixtures after that.

        CS or nothing though.

        Baines at least offers assists, baps and pens. But is £2.3m unfortunately.

        Yeah... got a touch of the Rio Ferdinand about him - i.e. zero goal threat (ignoring Rio's recent assist in a blue moon) but he's a good way into their defence.

        always rated distin as a player, but no goals, and not a lot of cleanies, although they're improving a bit in that regard. better value elsewhere though i think
