The ScoutCast – Episode 134 – Starter

Gently does it. Granville and I ease ourselves into the season with another thirty-minute bite-size podcast, gradually building up our fitness before we go full tilt next month.

Yes, it’s just the pair of us again, cuddling up in our intimate studio to discuss the events of Gameweek one, whilst casting one eye on the fixtures and events to come this weekend.

We get through the usual array of regulars, with Granville explaining how a wedding and a bout of childcare threatened to ruin his campaign, just as it gets out of the blocks. We reach out to all those Siggy benchers, whilst picking the bones out United’s limp corpse following their opening day defeat. We then chat Fabregas vs Hazard, Ivanovic vs the rest (they’re going to run and run) and sing Ultimate’s praises for helping the previously unloved play their part in our Fantasy seasons.

Pick at the buffet via this link, or dash straight to the main course via the handy player below….

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

    Assuming most of us here have something like this of a team structure:

    9.0.......9.0........10.0.......6.0........4.5
    ..........10.5.......10.5.....8.5.............

    So, if Rooney & Costa remain consistent (or perform as we expected them to) & RvP/Aguero fires 2-3 goals in next couple of matches, what will be your strategy?

    a) replace one of the 10.5 striker by big 12.0
    b) replace one of the 9.0 mid by 6.0 & increase 8.5 striker to 12.0
    c) Something else

      It's simple.

      Decide on one of Hazard, Cesc or Costa.

      Let's hope Kun AND Rvp don't fire.

      Then hide behind the couch.

    I went the Courtois, Terry, Costa option for Chelsea players. What worries me is no Fabregas. If Ramires comes back and plays a deeper mid-field position and Fabregas moves up and plays in the hole behind Costa, then I'll have no option but to WC for GW3.

    All the people slagging off Tottenhams fantasy assets seem to forget they played most of the match last week with only ten men. To still win at west ham is good result.
    Under the circumstances it was no suprise Ade, Eriksen and Lamela provided little attacking intent

    Should be different this week although QPR are going to be a lot tougher this season than many believe

      For getting dressed you have to use your back a lot. You'll experience some pain when getting dressed. It's hard to avoid. In the first 24 hours, ice. After that heat can help depending on whether it's inflamed or not. Anti-inflammatory meds are good to take just in case. When going to sleep tonight use a pillow to elevate the leg with the damaged hamstring. It helps a lot. Hamstring injuries can become chronic so be careful.

    Was going through the pages and read people saying that Balo signing reduces sterling's appeal. Won't sterling be a better prospect with Studge and Balo to feed and he himself will get better service and more space as defenders will be drawn towards the two strikers.
    Also against weaker teams at home, sterling can easily overlap the strikers and make runs into the box or may as well rotate with the strikers upfront.
    Am i missing something?

    I've decided that I will be captaining Mata reardless of the 'punti-ness' of this move. I had a dismal gwk1, racking up a mere 51 points. I reckon if this punt pays off, I'll be up there with the elite again. Thoughts?

    Trying to get rid of Sanchez as well. He's over-priced and not delivering atm.

      My thoughts are its too early for punts. 51 is not great but no disaster. Captain Costa. Sanchez to Ramsey for now is ok if you want rid. Givs you 1.5. Easy to switch Rooney/Costa/Sturridge to RVP/Aguro if they hit it.
      Or invest in defence, Duff to to Clyne?

    Here.

    I think, if Mata drop before the GW starts, then it is easier for him to drop to 8.8.

    If he hold on to 9.0 before the next GW, then he will need a lot more NTI for price to drop 0.2 as we have seen with siggy's increase.

    Make sense?

      I think rises different to falls.

      Rises look like 100% for .1, 200% for .2 and 300% for .3

      Falls are a % of owners dropping him for each .1 fall (is it 10% of owners getting rid?) this remains the same for each fall i think.
