The ScoutCast – Episode 136 – Bangin

Fond of sand dunes and salty air, Granville returns from “avin’ it large” in Ibiza, to join me once again in the ScoutCast studio.

The ageing hedonist and I rinse through the regulars – giving our views on the week’s transfer bandwagons, whilst previewing the weekend and giving a shout-out to those managers blazing trails atop the various Fantasy Football Scout leagues.

Inevitably, we also moan about our Gameweek mishaps, discuss the latest development in the United revolution and surf the waves being generated by the Fantasy Premier League price tweaks.

Drop the beats via this link or “roll another fat one” via the handy player below…

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

      Why not Welbeck ? . I just bought Welbeck and am curious about why it is going to inevitably back fire ?

        Give Welbz a few weeks. He'll keep getting chances and hopefully he start putting them away.

      Depends where you would spend the cash difference.

      Personally I think Balotelli is a waste of space

      1. andres

        Would you sell him tho this gw? For whom?

          I've got Aguero because I think he's the best Fpl striker in the league. Fixtures notwithstanding

          If I were you, is get him or save

    @Doos 2 question please sir

    1) Why Stoke over Burnley (from a purely rotational standpoint Stoke and Swansea have perfect H/A rotation)

    2) Keep Caulker long term or downgrade to a cheaper QPR/Villa defender in a couple of weeks?

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      STK: qpr -1 NEW 170 sun 14 SWA 173 sot -206 WHM 214 tot -236 128 BUR 210

      A. Bertrand as he's cheaper, and has better stats.

      1. Feed tha Sheep

      1. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        It's because Baines is fooking striker?

        1. Godfather Bandit 42

        • 14 Years

        Yep brought in Baines this week Home to CRY have a WC in the bag so not to worried about players down the line

    2. GREENDREAMS11
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      i think it will be six of one and half a dozen of the other with those 2 and their point scoring tbh. If they tighten up at the back a double up could be a great (albeit expensive) option.
