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.

    Baines engaging in some Jonny Evans level trolling

    1. Declan
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Baines and Jonny Evans in the same sentence 😯

  2. Gooner Kebab
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    This back line ok?

    Bego
    PvA, Colo, Duff (Terry, Wisdom)

    Benching order ok?

    I haven't got Baines, Ramsey, Mata or Hazard in my WC team. After that podcast I'm filled with doubt

    1. Gooner Kebab
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Baines looks worth every penny, cs and goal

    Timmyyyyyyyyyy

  5. Wild Rover

    Lol at all the casuals who sold Howard

  6. Costa in Wengerland
    • 12 Years

    Tim howard looks solid

  7. LewanGOALski

    which one should I bench:

    Clyne (swa)
    or
    PvA (bur)

    ?

    1. Gooner Kebab
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      PvA

    2. Konig Luther
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      pVA in my opinon

    3. chrisjdgrady
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Clyne

  8. Bellerinmondo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    good save Howard!

    Arsenal fans: what's the latest news on Walcott from the horses mouth? Physio room says he'll be back next weekend, but I'd assume he'll get eased in somewhat so when do you think he'll get his first start?

    Also, when he comes back how do you think you'll setup? I'd imagine Walcott, Ramsey, and Sanchez are nailed-on starters, but is that at the expense of Welbeck or the wide-left midfielder (ie. Ozil)?

    My guess is tht it would be something like this, either in a 4231 or 4141:

    Welbeck
    Sanchez Ramsey Walcott

    1. chrisjdgrady
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Ramsey deeper with Ozil in the middle there.. unless Ozil keeps stinking then it would be Wilshire there I think

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 10 Years

      Theo isnt in full training yet. He'll train for a bit, then start playing for the u21's, then get some minutes with the first team. He's not worth thinking about right now.

    So proud watching Everton in Europe! Our cheap little team (minus Lukaku) winning 3-0 in the Europa League!

    1. Bellerinmondo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      it's gonna be an entertaining season

      1. thepuntmaster

        rollercoaster, but it's real football.... unlike some of these big buisnesses

    2. chrisjdgrady

      Loving watching them right now

        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        there are a few teams in the league playing really good football atm

  11. chrisjdgrady
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Ugh I want Baines now. Def will come in when I WC

  12. Piggs Boson
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Why have Everton played their first team? Has Martínez not heard of the Europa League hangover?

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Well they won't win anything else. Worth a punt imo

    2. chrisjdgrady
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Hopefully he starts bringing on the bench to give some of them a slight rest

      Naismith to be rested this weekend 🙂

      1. Costa in Wengerland
        • 12 Years

        Lukaku to be rested

        1. Gooner Kebab
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Haha, Naismith over 35% ownership i believe!

      would rather win europa and come like 7th in PL instead of 6th

      1. thepuntmaster
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        defo, i think top 6 is out of reach this year, with United back.

        I think that this XI could go a very long way in this competition

        1. Bellerinmondo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          yeah could be a great way into CL next year too

            9 years, 9 months ago

            That's the type of slogan that would have Americans bring liable cases against Birdseye

          • 10 Years

          Is it me or does Bendtner get opportunities at clubs like Wolfsburg because of his ego/pay level? I swear he'd have dropped much further otherwise. 😛

            Same in industry/the City. No longer a job for life, rather its seniority for life. Once you have the CV and salary it's harder to lose it than to maintain it.

          Current team is:

          DDG (Myhill)
          Lovren, Kaboul, Clyne, (Wisdom, Bruce)
          Fab, Ramsey, Sterling, Siggy (El Ahmadi)
          Rooney, Costa, Welbeck

          Ive got 1.9m in the bank but dont really know how to spend it with my 1 FT. Any Suggestions welcome, current thoughts are:

          1. El Ahmadi to Chadli for some selection headaches
          2. Sterling to DI Maria
          3. Bruce to someone (Blackett)?
          3. Save the transfer

          1. n-doggg
            • 11 Years

            Looks like you'll have to get Bruce out at some point so maybe for duff. Or save transfer

          A dilemma either Rooney or Falcao this week? I'm planning on getting Kun in next week on my FT. Is this a good idea?

            I tried tartar sauce for first time last week.
            How is it different from mayo?
            It tasted the same

            1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              what! its got capers in it, its a completely different condiment all together ("its a completely different condiment" police squad joke)

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years

              I agree it's completely different. It is, however completely repellent

              Tartar has lemon or some acidic ingredient component. How can you not taste that?
