The ScoutCast – Episode 110 – Cosmo

He’s well travelled. He’s multi-lingual. He’s just 19 points behind me. Despite my best start to a Fantasy Football season in living memory, Granville is right on my tail. In this latest episode of the ScoutCast, Granville takes delight in taunting me by wrapping his tongue around every “Pochettino” with ease, leaving me to struggle like Paul Merson with a mouth ulcer.

In between the mispronunciations, myself and the “cosmopolitan Manc” get heated about Robin Van Persie, rinse through the Gameweek 1 bandwagons, preview the weekend’s action and welcome the flying start made by this season’s ScoutCast team. It’s breathless stuff, squeezed into a low fat 40 minutes.

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

            I couldn't do it. I have Benteke already mind you, but I took a hit to get in Soldado instead of Dzeko. Dzeko seems like 2 transfers waiting to happen and doesn't completely solve the GW3 blank problem. Benteke you can just stick in and forget about for a while... price rises likelier also.

              they're not going to play. price rise wise, they can still drop. the threshold for them to drop may change from the normal threshold. either way, they won't really know exactly where the threshold is yet, nor the difference being red flagged makes. so it's only educated guesswork at the moment

              Hazard to Silva. Bench Ivan for Turner (nor?)

                i would do this, and it is a good option, it's just i think Hazard may do well against united.

            8 point hits are total madness but it's early doors & fancy some fun.

            Weds - Lukaku > Soldado
            Today - Anelka News?!? Hazard > Ben Arfa & Anelka > Dzeko

            Leaves me with....

            Boruc
            Chester Toure Garrido (Terry, Collins)
            Mirallas Nolan Coutinho Ben Arfa (Kim)
            Dzeko Soldado RVP

            God that looks awful! Damn you beer!! Damn you!!

              If you're gonna do that, downgrade Terry rather than Hazard. You need that money in your midfield. One big-hitting mid hasn't been a viable plan in any of the recent seasons.... not sure enough has changed to make it viable now

                Already done. It's for this week, don't fancy an 8 point hit including a defender. Anelka - Retired, Hazard - Utd/Blank. Dzeko & Ben Arfa a bit punty but fixtures in their favour and if the sun is shining could score big. Actually think it will be the season of the bargain mid & the likes of Soldado, Benteke, Sturridge, Aguero & of course RVP will hog points.

            Newcastle's fixtures look exceptional over the coming weeks. Have any of you considered Ben Arfa, Cisse or Sissoko?
