There’s no getting away from it, Granville and I are nothing short of bitter middle aged, middle of the table Fantasy managers. This week’s ScoutCast is a vitriol-filled slab of double Gameweek failure, inspired by Yaya Toure’s relentless point scoring and our stubborn reluctance to recruit his talents.

Of course, in between skinning our sour grapes, Granville and I dabble with the podcast regulars, whilst responding to another round of community posers including a lookey-likey query that smiles kindly on my co-host and has me recounting the tale of my very own office doppleganger.

Wallow in self pity via this link or look on the bright side via the player below…

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

    Thoughts on a cashing in downgrade on Januzaj?

    Held through thick and thin he's the eyesore and constant reminder of a poor Jan WC.

    But he's tieing but some cash resource I could be using to ramp up my team.

    On the other hand transfers are precious and I wonder is it worth my wile.

        Yeah the extra games rule out any possibility of selling him. With Suarez owned by everyone, and Yaya surely approaching that status, it's getting uncomfortably close to a 9 player game now. I'm looking for an excuse to sell him.

        It's hard to see his output dropping off. All of his goals I've seen look very deliberate, very skilled. It isn't luck. He's just attacking more than he was last season, and he's very good at it.

          He often finds himself in acres of space with a fair straight forward shooting opportunity. He has a talent for ghosting into spaces, that coupled with his powerful shot makes him unstoppable.

      Bony is a good bet but its just impossible to find room for him when there are just 3 striker spots. I think Michu is the one to watch though. In fact I'd put him down as possibly the best differential going into the end of the season.

      Unless you really fancy man utd (which I dint despite being an optimistic united fan) can you look to free up cash by taking out mata and Evra? Mata this week and Evra next perhaps?

          He probably will, but tough fixtures follow. Liverpool's fixtures aren't brilliant either but it's frightening how often Gerrard manages to rack up the points even without many goals from open play.

        It's a good place to start though I tend to look ahead to player form and fixture combos that I anticipate wanting and start moving my team in that direction earlier if price or individual fixtures warrant it
        Eg if I decided I wanted more Everton and less arsenal for week 34 I would do giroud > lukaku this week even though giroud home to city is fine but I would prefer lukaku at fulham
