The double Gameweek dominates episode 103 of the ScoutCast, providing a timely antidote a pitiful weekend of points scoring that saw even the great and good struggle. While your hosts hardly fit into that category, Granville and I dust ourselves down to rinse through the double Gameweek options, popping in on the Professor to get the “Rate My Team” viewpoint, before Jonty crashes the party to serve up another community themed conclusion.

This time around, Jonty brings a tale of armband woe: a Fantasy manager who misses the captain target with frustrating regularity. Whilst that manager’s luck should offer cheer, Jonty is also armed with a plethora of captain statistics that come courtesy of a former “Full Jonty” victim. Those particular revelations have me staring into the eyes of a certain Dutchman and wondering where it all went wrong.

Be captain sensible and grab this latest episode via this link or stream it via the player below.

*Apologies for the downgrade in sound balance this week – we had some technical issues which basically meant I forgot to restart the recording half way through and so had to use a lower quality recording mix. A balls up: it won’t happen again (that’s probably a complete lie – it’s bound to happen again).

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

    Folks is Nastasic's only rival to his centreback position Joleon Lescott? Im trying to work out who would be the safer pick between him and Clichy. Does Clichy have competition from Richards and Maicon?

      When fit, Nastasic and Kompany are nailed on. I don't know how close to full fitness Richards and Maicon are but with the fa cup game plus the game against Wigan, Clichy and Zab could be at risk. Kolorov would most likely come in for Clichy if he were to be rested. Having said that, both Clichy and Zabaleta are both fit enough to play both the fa cup and premier league game.

    Think I've come to the conclusion I need to get Rafael in for a hit (can't afford Evra) my defence is currently Sagna Zabaleta Wilson Dawson Davies. Who would be best to take out Wilson (possibly injured) or Davies who has a dgw but may lose his place before the double. Thanks
