The ScoutCast – Episode 137 – Precious

Every little point counts. With the mini-league gap between myself and co-host Granville widening by the week, my Mancunian friend can ill-afford to throw points aside in his bid to follow up last season’s victorious campaign.

In and around the usual ScoutCast regulars, Granville recalls the dilemma that saw him get away with benching Cesc Fabregas to the tune of just a single point. Will that prove costly?

We then join forces to run the rule over the accelerating Di Maria bandwagon, assess Rooney’s re-positioning and decide whether those steering away from Ramsey Street need to re-programme their sat navs.

Treasure this nonsense via this link or cling to these worldly goods via the handy player below…

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

    Begovic - McCarthy
    Ivanovic - Clyne - Naylor - Duff - Wisdom
    Sterling - Ramsey - ADM - Siggy - Boyd
    Falcao - Costa - Welbeck

    2FT, 0ITB

    Should I?

    A) Ramsey + Begovic -> Tadic + Forster
    B) Ramsey + Begovic -> Fab + Manonne
    C) Ramsey + Wisdom/Naylor -> Schneiderlin + Baines
    D) Any others?

    Not as an fpl prospect but do people think diaby will start getting regular playing time if he stays fit? Think he looked okay in the southampton game considering how long he has been out. Could be a help to the arsenal defence if he hits some form.

      He won't stay fit much longer. And now that they're out of the League Cup he probably won't play another game until the FA Cup starts in January, unless he gets a few minutes in one of the easier PL games once or twice.

    Surprised that so many people are so quick to jump off Begovic.

    He's only conceded more than 1 once this season, so with a bit more luck he would have had 2-3 CS's instead of only 1. Fixtures are great too, and you probably won't have a double-up scenario as you would with Forster and a SOU defender. Stoke had the 4th best Home defense last season for a reason, and I'm not gonna give up on him until he's gone 10 games without producing the goods. Much more urgent needs elsewhere anyways.

    Howdy DZ'ers! Hope everyone is well! I think I'm fairly set on my team going in to the weekend but wouldn't mind another opinion (... or two). I had 2 FTs and have already used one in Caulker → Bertrand giving me:

    Foster
    Clyne - Bertrand - Pieters
    Fabregas - Sterling - Di Maria (vc) - Siggy
    Rooney - Costa (C) - Welbeck

    Krul - PVA - Naylor - JWP

    1 FT, 0.8M

    Hows my bench order? Right in playing Pieters over PVA or Naylor? Use my other FT in getting rid of JWP or bench him and worry about that later?

                This is true. I have Costa in my team so not too worried if he does score. Just have to cross my fingers that Fabregas scores 2 and Mane scores higher than Costa as most people will have him as captain. These two games are going to be painful to watch!

        The derby affect could change that, but I'm not convinced it will be enough...

    Hi.. Just finished reading some stats and wonder who to play .. A or B ?

    A - Naismith .. Merseyside derby. It should be goalfest, but it could be a tight draw too. Also, a chance of red card.

    B - Siggy .. Just scored midweek. Usually do well on away game.

    Statistically, Naismith has had more chances to score. But Siggy is always dangerous.
