The ScoutCast – Episode 127 – Logic

Granville calls it a logic-defying season and this 300k ranked Fantasy manager isn’t going to argue with him. There’s plenty to tussle about in this week’s ScoutCast, however, as we lock virtual horns over Rooney vs van Persie, Baines vs Coleman and Aguero vs his hamstring.

In and around the regulars, it’s the incoming double Gameweeks that occupy our thoughts once more, with the community questions quizzing us on United’s Gameweek 31 potential, the Chelsea dilemma and the best player we’ve witnessed in the flesh. Granville puts forward a true talent: a three time FIFA World Player of the Year, no less. I nominated a floppy haired Geordie with a top 40 single. Truly logic-defying.

Share in Granville’s Zizou moment via this link or stare into my Diamond Lights via the player below.

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

    If all your picks win, the winnings are massive. Why would you opt for a regular accumulator over this option? It seems that you can risk less for bigger rewards...
