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.

Congratulate yourself via this link or bask in smugness via the handy player below…

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

    Hi guys, team is:

    Krul
    Chambers - Ivanovic - Hutton
    Siggy - Sterling - Fabragas - Di Maria
    Aguero - Costa - Welbeck
    _____________________________

    0.3 itb, 0 free transfers, can you see anything maybe worth doing for a -4 or -8?

    Di Maria > Tadic?
    Siggy > Barkley?
    Ivanovic > Baines?

    Anything you might advise? Comments/help much appreciated.

      to be honest ADm was unlucky in the wba match to only get an assist. He is alot more explosive than Eriksen imo and will be fit - don't forget he was coming of an international break - long plane journeys and all (Hong Kong on Tuesday I believe).
