Flabbergasted by my reluctance to tinker and the decision to throw away my Gameweek 9 transfer, Granville can’t wait to get stuck into me in the ScoutCast studio.

My co-host roughs me up over my cowardice, then slaps me around for the fact that I appeared to hoodwink the entire world over Diego Costa’s fitness. We then go on to appraise the merits of Ed Sheeran, check in on Neil Warnock’s latest gripes and weigh up the Sterling vs Sanchez vs Hazard debate. Meanwhile, Kieran Trippier’s cross count without an assist for Granville hits 66 and counting. Who’s dithering now, eh Granville?

Dilly-dally over this episode via this link or dawdle in its direction via the player below…

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

  3. HellasLEAF
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Important random question.

    the best, most nailed on 3.9 defender..

    1. SPorting
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Those words don't belong in the same sentence.

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

        I know I know. am at 0.0 and want to swap out McShane for something more stable now that I have the chance.

        rest of the team looks good.

        1. SPorting
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Saylor

    2. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      yun or saylor maybe. Dunno if they are 4 or 3.9

    3. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I need some too 🙂

      Yun & Saylor both 3.9 and both have played back to back 90mins

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

        I see. and if you were to lean towards one or the other?

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

          and what about Bruce..

          1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            Nowhere close to nailed on

      2. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Saylor has a yellow flag though

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

          Ya am leaning towards Saylor but if he doesn't play you run the risk of seeing him lose his place should newcastle win or play well

      a) Chelsea
      b) Yes

      1. Tissetroldene

        This^

  5. Sol
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    i think its all about what Jose say about Costa tonight ..if i feel that he will start i am gunna captain him if not then Kun.

  6. thehut

    Decisions, Decisions...

    Captain Costa or Sanchez this week?

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

      Sanchez

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

      Costa.

      Marney is back, Burnley will be tighter

  7. dicky2014
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    "Rodgers reckons Sturridge is unlikely to return until before next international break"

    What does that even mean?

    1. thehut
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      That he won't be back till after the Int break????

      1. dicky2014
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Then it should read "Rodgers reckons Sturridge is unlikely to return before next international break" the until isnt needed.

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      "Rodgers reckons Sturridge is unlikely to return until before next international break"

    3. pompeyfan
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      he trying to tell Hodgson he won't be fit for England, but secretly he'll start him straight afterwards.

  8. Skogen89
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone else thinking about Costa (C) vs QPR ? Or should i just do Aguero..? Need do catch up in minileauge tho.

    bottom of last page..

    1. No Pirlo No Party
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      I think I am going for Costa (c) but I dont have Aguero.

      If I had Aguero I would probably captain him. City will surely score and Aguero will most probably be involved.

      1. Skogen89
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        true its pry the most obvious choice, bute then again if costa starts... could be massive!

  9. No Pirlo No Party
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Hazard or Sanchez debate...

    Is Hazard - Fabregas - Costa too much Chelsea Attack?
    I would usually have said yes, but looking at their next 4 fixtures they could score very well!

    Or is Sachez the better option? I already have Welbeck and will be considering Walcott in the coming weeks.

    1. Willis.
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Haz this week no doubt

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

      I'd say Hazard over Sanchez. Kind run of fixtures, penalties, and 0,5 mill cheaper. Sanchez could be rested some mathes..

      1. No Pirlo No Party
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        I think you both could be right. Triple Chelsea attack scares me a little but they are the inform team with a good run of fixtures. Could pay off handsomely.

  10. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    What's the story with S. Taylor? He's fit & back being first choice?

    1. heco87
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Far from nailed on but should play this week if fit.

      1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks. Who is he competing with?

      2. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Williamson?

        1. heco87
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah, along with his own fitness. Dummett obviously did really well at CB midweek too but is behind them in the pecking order.

          1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 5 months ago

            Thanks a lot

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Siggy

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

      Siggy

    3. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Naismith, though there's a chance he may get rested / rotated.

  13. Who Ate All Depays?
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Guys....need advice
    Rose & Sterling -> Chambers & Hazard for a hit ( Yes or No)

    Guzan
    Clyne / Baines / Rose
    Fab / Sterling / Eriksen / Sanchez
    Aguero / Pelle / Berahino
    (McCarthy / Wisdom / Boyd / Saylor)

    1 FT & 0.9m itb

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      No

      1. Who Ate All Depays?
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        what change would you suggest or rather save the trannie ?

  14. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    cap aguero, hazard or sanchez? have all 3 🙂

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Sanchez

  15. FRANtastic

    Currently on:
    Manonne
    Filipe Luis Clyne Ivanovic
    Siggy ADM Sanchez(C) Fabregas(VC)
    Costa Pelle Welbeck

    Subs: McCarthy Hutton NTaylor Boyd

    0.2 ITB
    0 transfers
    Good to go?; taking a risk with sanchez captain; may have missed the points boat with him

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

    What to do?

    Foster/4.0
    Baines/Cahill/Clyne/Duff/Dummett
    ADM/Sterling/Downing/Siggy/Marney
    Aguero/Costa/Pelle

    A. Siggy ----> Chadli
    B. Sterling & Cahill -> Sanchez & Chambers (-4)
    C. ADM -> Hazard/Fabregas
    D. Save

    1. FRANtastic

      wheres your mane man?

  17. John t penguin
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Is Milner worth a punt if silva news is correct?

    1. heco87
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      … was also considering Lampard.

      1. John t penguin
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Demi reckons he is still out

    2. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Possibly, not against United though. He is more likely to get booked than score points in the derby.

      1. John t penguin
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        Problem I have is it is only way I can do sterling -hazard
        Otherwise it is ADM -hazard and I don't think that is worth it

  18. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Murray to beat Djokovic @ 12/5 anyone?

    1. heco87
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      Form vs Fixtures.. quite keen although would look at the odds to win in 3.

      1. Count of Monte Hristo
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 5 months ago

        So you fancy Murray on form?

        2-1 Murray is 6/1

        1. heco87
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          Much prefer that to the 12/5 personally. Don't let me talk you out of it though.

        2. John t penguin
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 5 months ago

          What price 2-0

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

          Murray was in a zone against dimitrov yesterday.....but this is djoko we are talking about....I say djokovic takes it in 3

  19. DRY PEANUT
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Play Milner or Siggy?

  20. New post
    1. thetinkerman

      Very noble 😉

    2. John t penguin
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 5 months ago

      But I am to finished with this one yet

  21. The Man Pastore
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Guzan or Foster this GW?

  22. Sol
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    i think Sanchez price will rise tonight according to http://fantasyfootballfix.com/price/

  23. That Fantasy Guy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 5 months ago

    Mersons predictions say 5 0 to arsenal, 1 - 1 in the Manchester derby and Chelsea 3 0... If this was the case, majority would captain arsenal players Sanchez and then welbeck and then costa / hazard and then aguero.
    Is this a case of Gut over stats?

    Fantasy wise, Captains are influenced by form ? I. E. Suarez last season
    How many times has one been burned by team loyalty over fantasy fact? (what I'm facing in captaining aguero against a united team I normally back)

    BUT then there is pure "feeling, Gut, heart" that sometimes just doesn't make sense but it's exciting and if it works, keeps you coming back for more! If not atleast you tried and you do the " should ofs" but then again, if you go against Gut and prefer logic, and turns out your gut was right, you probably mope about for the whole week and it still stings....
    So who wins Gut vs logic?
