Fond of sand dunes and salty air, Granville returns from β€œavin’ 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 β€œroll another fat one” via the handy player below…

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

    Anything urgent that I need to change with my team? I haven't really payed attention to what have been happening since last GW. I got one free transfer and will be gone for most of the tomorrow/weekend so only got today to make changes.

    Bego
    Janmaat-Ivanovic-Clyne
    SIggy-Fabregas-Henderson-Sterling(V)
    Costa-Adebayor(C)-Aguero

    Subs: McCarthy King PvA Wisdom 0 Mil in the bank.

    Still doubting putting Adebayor (C), especially considering that my biggest rival most likely will Captain Costa.

          If (big if!) it comes to pass just remember how close the UK and Ireland still are, despite Ireland going independent 90ish years ago, and amongst far more fraught circumstances.

          The countries of these islands will always have incredibly close social bonds; that will never change.

    I'm convinced Di Maria > Fab and Welbz > Pelle is worth a minus 4. Would give me a front three of Costa, Kun and Pelle - they top the charts for shots and goal attempts on a table I just created.

    Good move?

      In the last four games:

      Shots
      Costa 14
      Pelle 13
      Kun 11

      Shots inside box
      Costa 13
      Pelle 11
      Kun 9

      There is more, but the above is probably enough?

            The immediate set of fixtures favours Pelle as well but Welbeck is probably a long term buy. Think it'll be last minute if I decide to do it
