The ScoutCast – Episode 140 – Gloaty

4,032 Comments

After the best Gameweek tally in living memory, I reserve the right for a bit of a gloat. Having risked the Wildcard back in Gameweek 7, the stars aligned and everything fell into place last weekend, leaving my ScoutCast co-host, grumpy Granville, grabbing at straws and smashing TV sets in frustration.

After last season’s defeat, I revel in my moment of glory but still find time to lock horns with Granville over the great Costa debate. Is Jose playing with our minds? I certainly think so but, as Granville points out, I reckon the Lunar landings were fake. I love a good conspiracy, me.

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

    FYI.... Eriksen playing centrally, Chadli playing from the left.

    Both came on at the same time, so clearly that's Poch's preference right now..

        After GW9 I'd say Oscar has the better fixtures.

        Eriksen: avl STO hul EVE che
        Oscar: QPR liv WBA sun TOT

        Those Spurs fixtures all look better on paper than they really are imo. And if you've got a 5th mid like Downing capable of covering Oscar in GW11 (I have Downing VIL) then he's clearly the best choice.

        Besides, why would you choose Eriksen when you can get Chadli much cheaper who effectively plays as a striker?!

                Nothing wrong with going with a template, as long as you have 2-3 of your own choices. Tadic still has under 6% ownership for example, and Downing is another great option.

            Harry Kane nets hat-trick, replaces sent-off Lloris in goal & fumbles consolation free-kick into own net as Spurs win 5-1.

              -Plays Burnley (who have trouble scoring)
              -Good form
              -Everton defence looks strong lately

                What I'm thinking. Can't decide between either though. Might even go Ramsey to raise funds for later transfers.

                    I think he'll start but with the fixtures he has compared to someone like Sanchez (who is also playing well) it might be good to be a bit different and transfer him out.

                  Yeah, charged out and the striker nicked it past him. Usually very good at sweeping up. I wouldn't worry.
