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.

  1. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Transfer done (before price changes)

    Costa to Pelle

    Have two frees next week in case of emergencies!!

    1. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Time to bring in Hazard (C) next week.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Im thinking that if Siggi blanks against leicester then i will punt on Oscar

        1. Sadio
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Could also pan out, Oscar has hit some form too.

          Who you considering for the armband this week btw?

    2. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Diameter!!

      1. Test Eagles
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Oh blast!

        I meant Diame!

    3. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Ditto, plus Baines.

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Im saving Baines for next week , in case need an alternate plan

        1. Evs
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Baines this week was always my plan, maybe a week too late !

  2. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Is it ok to save this week, assuming no further clarification on Costa? Bank 1.1m, 1FT.

    McCarthy
    Baines Clyne Chambers
    Fabregas Sterling Mane Sigurdsson
    Aguero Costa Pelle
    Krul Boyd Hutton Moore

    Planned transfers.
    GW 9- Save FT.
    GW 10- Fabregas+Sigurdsson>>Walcott+Eriksen.
    Thoughts?

    Thanks.

    1. BigManBakar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Costa to Welbeck if he is ruled out

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Yep, I'll definitely switch if Costa is ruled out.

    2. Marouane Fellatio
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Would shift out Mane

  3. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Watch as Costa plays this weekend and scores a brace 😉

    1. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      It certainly would be a chaos-kicker round here!

      Can u imagine the number of tasteless "lols"

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      +2

    3. Saniul
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      That would be lucky.
      Right now, it is equally wise to keep or sell him.

  5. The Left Duke #3
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Waiting for Costa/ADM news has screwed my transfer options because of price changes

    Have 2 FT, 0.8m ITB

    GK - Schmeichal, Heaton
    DF - Moreno, Moore, Clyne, Taylor, Wilson
    MD - Fab, ADM, Sterling, Siggy, Schneiderlin
    FW - Costa, Falcao, Ulloa

    Should I
    A) Costa, Falcao, Moreno -> Aguero, Pelle, Baines (-4 hit)
    B) Costa, ADM, Moreno -> Aguero, Chadli, Baines (-4 hit)
    C) Costa, ADM, Ulloa -> Aguero, Pelle, Chadli (-4 hit)
    D) Falcao, Moreno -> Aguero, Chambers (no hit)
    E) Other

    What to do? Who is essential to get in?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      A.

    2. Catilo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      A look decent, D if you want to keep Costa

    3. OzilFozzil
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      D

  6. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Bench

    Duff, Marney, Dummett

    Right order?

    1. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I'd tend to play the mid first

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Even in my case?

        1. Test Eagles
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Yessir

    2. The Iron Tulip
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Id swap Marney and duff around

    3. BigManBakar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Dummett,Duff,Marney for me.

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Even when Newcastle have Spurs away?

        1. BigManBakar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Spurs blow hot and cold, you never know Newcastle might take a result as they did last season

  7. The Iron Tulip
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone playing Hutton this week feel like a 1 pointer incoming? So tempted to take a hit and bring in Baines

    1. thepuntmaster
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Nah - I nearly brought Hutton in, he was v. impressive against us

      Then again I've C Baines

    2. bar low tell me
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      hutton is a season keeper for me
      regular starter at 4m plus somewhat att return
      just keep him

  8. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Best option here chaps?

    A) Save
    B) Costa -> Welbeck/Berahino (next week Siggy -> Sanchez)

    Krul
    Baines, Clyne, Chambers
    Hazard, Sterling, Siggy, Chadli
    Costa, Aguero, Pelle

    Elliot, Wisdom, Hutton, Albrighton
    Bank 0.2m, 1 freebie

    1. The Iron Tulip
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Wait till later. If Costa is out im swapping to Berahino

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        or even C) Costa -> Berahino (next week Albrighton -> Walcott) 😯

        1. ralfb
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Like that

  9. Lo Lo Lo Radamel Falcao
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Help guys!

    I dont have Aguero or Costa. So dont have a nailed on captain.

    Had 2 fts so took a 4pt hit and did Lovren-Cork-Costa to Jagielka-Tadic-Welbeck!

    So my mid is Fab Sterling ADM Tadic Siggy and upfront i have Pelle Dzeko and Welbz!

    Who do i captain? Was thinking Pelle or Sterling.

    Going with 3 at the back this week with Ivan Jag and Clyne(Hutton Chambers bench)

    Thoughts?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Pelle.

      1. Lo Lo Lo Radamel Falcao
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Yup. Was always edging towards him.

        Gamble on Siggy or Tadic?

        1. EmreCan Hustle
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah Siggy possibly.

    2. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Pelle (c) as So'ton are on fire at the mo and at home.

      Not Sterling as Liverpool are playing like toilet......Liverpool fan here so know too well 🙁

      1. Lo Lo Lo Radamel Falcao
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Hahaha. True that. 😀

    3. AppleDunk
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Pelle is my C and Sterling is my VC. And I have Costa.

      1. Lo Lo Lo Radamel Falcao
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Ah Right.

        And the Dzeko situation, Not sure if i should gamble on him starting or start all 5 of my mids and bench Dzeko.

        That seems like the logical thing to do right?

  10. AppleDunk
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    People who have Costa and starting him this weekend. Are you worried he will start from the bench instead?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I'm worried he may not play at all. Can't count on Boyd scoring every week.

    2. Muffinz
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      To be honest, I'd rather have a 20 minute Costa showing against a tired ManU defence than 90 min of Boyd..

  11. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Too all the people getting rid of Costa. What are you going to do next GW when Chelsea play QPR and Costa returns from injury?

    1. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Getting Hazard

    2. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Just sold Costa for Berahino and upgraded Matic who was my 5th midfielder to Hazard for Chelsea cover

    3. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Hope QPR beat them 1-0

    4. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Will worry about that if and when it happens!

    5. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Got 2 FTs next week.. Costa just a 4 point hit away from Vardy. just wish i'd done Costa to Aguero earlier

    6. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Take the hit and get him back 😆

    7. mookie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      get him back for free

    8. CunkOnFPL
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      buy him back for free B-)

    9. Honeybadger
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Getting Costa back for Falcao. Hoping Costa drops and Falcao rises...

  12. Federico
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Who to sell for Aguero?

    A) Pellé
    B) Welbeck
    C) Costa

    1. mipola
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      B

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      C, if ruled out.

    3. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      The one that (probably) ain't playing this week

    4. mookie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Costa, but if you waited this long(like me) you should wait at least for the PC today

      1. Federico
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers!

        I am on holiday in another timezone, so a bit confused.
        News, if any, should be out in 7 hours or so?

        1. mookie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          i have no clue, i just check the scout tweets

  13. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Morning, Dead Zoners! 🙂

    New table from me:

    http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/7270/

    Enjoy! 😀

    1. Saniul
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Morning, Doosra.

      What would you say about my Berahino/Lukaku/Benteke dilemma? I'm looking for short-term benefits, 2-3 weeks?

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Sorry - had to read previous page.

        Easy for me to say - but I would get Berahino. Easily.

        Mine are: Agüero, Pellè and Welbeck.

        1. Saniul
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Pellè was always my first choice. But then again, I'm stuck with Davis as my third Soton player, that sucks.

          1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            Ah. Well, I swapped him for Tadic some weeks ago, when I got Downing.

            1. Saniul
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 5 months ago

              I wish I did.
              Him dropping from 5.0 to 4.8 hasn't done me any good either. Except the assist off the bench.

              1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 16 Years
                11 years, 5 months ago

                Well, there you go. I got out at 4.9, so lost value too. Still a good pick. I can see myself going back to him, in the dog days of March ...

  14. Saniul
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    I can't believe I'm keeping and playing Moreno for another week.

    Or a -4 to Baines?

    1. Honeybadger
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Keep, not worth -4

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Keep and play.

    3. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      No. Keep. But becoming a priority.

      1. Saniul
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Can't agree more.
        1. 1. 1. 2. 0. 1 ppg.

        But then, every week, there is some other priority, and Moreno ends up having a decent fixture, and I keep him. 😐

        1. 1569Tippins
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          This has happened to me but with Andre Schurrle... I'm hoping he plays up front this week if Costa is ruled out... the rewards could be sweet!

  15. bar low tell me
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    should i (C) baines this week
    i fancy him running rampage at burnley, plus burnley just can't score

  16. Honeybadger
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Tadic isn't a "scout pick". 90% of teams from Serbia had him from the start, almost my whole ML had him...

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      - not to mention your old pal here ... 😉

      1. Honeybadger
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        The king of punts :P. I got him a week before he went crazy, even captained him last gw :D, makes up for my Ulloa captaincy two gw's ago.

        You'll never guess who my crazy punt will be this week... Maybe even too crazy for you :O

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Oscar or Milner spring to mind.

          1. Honeybadger
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            Zamora :O

            More like "had to get him to get Aguero" than a punt though...

            1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 5 months ago

              Feck me! 😯

    2. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      He is most certainly a scout pick.

      Out of his ownership a lot of people 'in the know' brought him in very recently 😉

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        You set up for this week? Keeping Costa I presume?

        1. Evs
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Nope, the old knee went last night.

          BIG mistake on reflection regarding team value unless he doesn't play and his TV plummets.

          I actually think the opposite will be true 🙁

          1. Christina.
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            I have a feeling he will get gametime vs United.

            1. Evs
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 5 months ago

              I kinda of agree, hence my first 2 sentences 😆

              1. Christina.
                • 16 Years
                11 years, 5 months ago

                Yeah, big decision for me today.

                1. super zlatan
                  • 15 Years
                  11 years, 5 months ago

                  I shipped costa too 😉

                  1. Christina.
                    • 16 Years
                    11 years, 5 months ago

                    Cool. Balls.

      2. Honeybadger
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Tadic was on 2.3% I believe before last gw.

        1. Evs
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Yep, and I reckon there was a large amount of members on here (of that 2.9%) that had him.

    3. bar low tell me
      • 11 Years

                Funny thing is people been saying all night that because triggerlips and Evs did it , they were doing it too

                Risky strategy considering i had to toss a coin to decide

                  Lol. Haha.

                  ... I only did it as I was tired, and I couldn't be bothered to ponder it anymore.

                  I think it's the 'safety' option for the week despite the TV damage for us gw1 Costa owners...

                  1. Christina.
                    • 16 Years
                    11 years, 5 months ago

                    As it stands I will lose more on ADM then Costa.

                    1. Twelve years a slave
                      • 15 Years
                      11 years, 5 months ago

                      Why sell ADM he too good to let go

                      1. Twelve years a slave
                        • 15 Years
                        11 years, 5 months ago

                        next four weeks im more scared of owning no southampton attackers than costa, hence the swap
                        Plus can throw in baines for free

                    I think bankable value (i.e. sale price) is more important than team value and Costa *could* be down to his sale price for GW1 owners by the time Chelsea kick-off on Sunday (if they sold him before last night's price changes).

    Should I downgrade Barkley to Oxlade-Chamberlain and upgrade either Tadic or Sterling to Hazard, Oscar, Ramsey, Eriksen, or Fabregas? Thanks!

    1. That Fantasy Guy

          Meant to say do well. If you feel like taking a chance then sure but only if you have pelle? Southampton are at home again another are on fire at the moment. Ps I'm no expert just my thoughts

        Wow pity it can't be straight swapnto aguero but doubling on Everton defence is risky maybe find an alternative there but I think your options are good pending costa

    Well, well, if you haven't seen this, read Ludo's article on Europa League hangover.

    I have planning to get Baines/Lukaku/Chadli all week, this makes me think again. Fascinating and informative.

      Lukaku/Chadli only played 36/13 minutes last night.

  24. ver_sparda

    Is it wise to double on Sanchez and Welbeck?

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Yep

    2. Najoman86
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      It wouldn't be a bad thing... if it were Sanchez that you were contemplating bringing in, though... I may want to wait to see how Walcott goes in the next couple of weeks

    Morning, still have those 2 FT's in my pocket and yet to decide what to do. Your thoughts about the following ideas?

    Begovic
    PvA, Naylor, Bertrand
    Siggy, Cesc, Tadic, Sterling
    Costa, Pelle, Aguero

    subs: Gilks, Chester, Cattermole, Rio - 1,7 ITB, 2 FT

    A) Costa and PvA -> Welbeck and Baines
    B) (Keep Costa) Sterling and PvA -> Eriksen and Baines
    C) PvA -> Jagielka and save FT

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I done A

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Cheers. Also considering Lukaku but Welbeck seems to be better option with lower price?

        1. super zlatan
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          I like arsenals fixtures. That's why I went with welbz.

          Berahino is another decent option.

    2. micsway
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Personally I decided to keep Costa cause he'll be back for QPR if not this week.

      Don't like welbeck form but like baines.

      Just bring in jagielka and allow yourself the luxury 2 free transfers next week.

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I'm also waiting for today's Chelsea presser to hear some more news. I'd like to keep also with QPR coming next week but my bench is quite thin. :/ It's really 50-50.

  26. Christina.
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Cue Ramsey/Walcott messing up our plans to get Costa back for QPR(H).

    It's in the script.

    Tempted with Pelle though.

    1. micsway
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      You and me both. Don't forget he delivered a goal and assist mid well as well.

      Reckon while he's fit. Keep it on him.

      1. OzilFozzil
        • 12 Years

        Seriously? It makes sense though and against my better judgement I didnt last week and he came right., so may just be tempted.
