There was just a wafer-thin point separating myself and Granville in Gameweek 11, despite my rivals decision to ignore the force of nature that is Alexis Sanchez.

In a svelte but packed episode of the ScoutCast, my co-host and I discuss the Chilean’s “essential” charms and pile praise on the reborn Stewart Downing and the new, reliable Leighton Baines v2.

Around the usual regulars, we drop in on some old favourites, as Aleks Kolarov discovers new methods of running Granville’s Gameweek and I somehow manufacture a way of snuggling under the Van Persie duvet. We also carry on nudging the Harry Kane-wagon, run our teams through the Gargatron computer and go on “Warnock Watch” once more.

Squeeze into this episode out via this link or sample its tautness via the player below…

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

    Henry Kane great player. Reminds me on Owen.

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      That's not really good then

      1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…

        eh? Owen was world class in his teens

    3. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…

      owen's game was based on blistering pace. Kane doesn't have that

    I'm thinking of captaining Sakho this week with Tadic as a VC.

    Other options in my team include Costa, Aguero, Sanchez, but I think Sakho may do well. Am I crazy?

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      No. Think it's a pretty good punt in my opinion.

    2. RabMac
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Only 1 double digit score so far from him but will probably score at least one this weekend I reckon.

      1. Yinyang 42
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I think he's be raring to go against Villa after his week out.

        The other guys have all had disappointing European results & will be tired and melancholy

    Seriously considering starting Wanyama ahead of Eriksen this week as i think Eriksen may be benched and only play a cameo role. Sound logic?

    1. SC not pearls before swine
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      No for me, because Wanyama could be benched as well.

      1. Walsh
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Madness. No way he is benched on his current form for Cork.

        1. SC not pearls before swine
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          I read a post by Lucy, resident Saints fan, saying essentially "Don't buy Wanyama, he won't score again and Cork will play in easy home games." She did qualify saying Wanyama may now start based on current form, but a Wanyama start is surely not a certainty.

          1. Walsh
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            She has been bashing Wanyama since preseason. I agree it is folly to buy him as he is just a CDM but it is madness to think that he would be benched right now given his form and I'm sticking with it.

            1. Ser Football 42
              • 11 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              I'm a saints fan too and I say don't buy him just for the fact he plays pretty deep back most of the time. He should have his spot in the 11 though

            2. SC not pearls before swine
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Sherlock Holmes agrees with me! Stand down Dr Walshson

    2. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Eek has it really come to this? If it has, I'd say this is where you use one of those handy transfers you get each week 🙂

    3. NissA
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'm with the same dilemma, whether to play Eriksen or Siggy.

    4. Ser Football 42
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wanyama plays pretty deep back most of the time for Southampton. He's a great shout but I'm not sure about starting him

    5. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wanyama isn't sure starter too 🙂

    6. theBoose
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      after his poor display against tripolis it could well be possible. it's not a bad idea.

    7. d1sable
      • Has Moderation Rights
      11 years, 1 month ago

      He was hooked at halftime last prem game and just played 70 mins in europa, i think Pochettino wants to play two up top Kane plus Ade/Soldado which means no Eriksen.

  4. mookie
    • 12 Years

    Is this bunch any good for this weekend?

    Adrián
    Clyne, Baines, Chambers
    Sánchez, Downing, Tadic, Chadli
    Agüero(C), Costa, Welbeck(VC)

    Mannone, Boyd, Hutton, Bardsley

    1. Jacques The Lad
      • 11 Years

      FT's? Money ITB?

      1. mookie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        on -4 and 0.3 itb

        did my biggest knee jerk ever with 3 transfers on Saturday, got Downing, Sanchez and Chambers for Sterling, Siggy and Moreno

        1. Jacques The Lad
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          fair enough mate, g2g. Maybe sakho or austin next week aye

    2. Zasa
      • 11 Years

      Other than Welbeck, aye mate I like that XI.
      Good luck 🙂

      1. mookie
        • 12 Years

        thanks, good luck to you too

    3. Aaron Ramessi - Straya
      • 12 Years

      tasty 🙂

      welbeck and probably bardsley next in line for the chop i imagine...

      1. mookie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        cheers

        Bardsley has Burnley at home next after that he’s gone

  5. Takamba
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Is this a viable way to get all the 'big-hitters' in?

    Krul (Elliot)

    Baines - Chambers - Wisdom (Yun, STaylor)

    ADM, Sanchez, Fabregas, Chadli/Sigurdsson (Marney)

    Costa, Aguero, Sakho

    1. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      looks good

      1. Takamba
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

        Means losing Pelle and Clyne, but So'ton fixtures turn for the worse soon.

        1. Wiz
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Don't lose Pelle and Clyne now

          1. Takamba
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            For me, it effectively comes down to this:

            ADM, Sakho and a 4.0

            Or

            Pelle, Siggy/Chadli and Bertrand

            Anyone?

  6. natra
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Downing (AST) vs Tadic (LEI) for this week only? Have Pelle but no Sakho.

    1. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Tadic

    what's the name of that analysis tool discussed, Galvatron? glavatron? where can i find it?

  8. Ryan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I take it Sanchez is the reason its so quiet on here? we couldn't get more obvious transfers this week really. I get the feeling many made their transfers early in the week.

    1. Christina.
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I wish I didn't get him though.

      I have a feeling I have jinxed him.

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        lol

        1. Christina.
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Hey, you.

          ...you got me thinking about Mr Austin...million $ man...

          See previous page.

          1. Rasping Drive
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Yes, his " a man barely alive" status has changed for the better. QPR must have Oscar Goldman as their Director of Football.

          2. Nabs Kebabs
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            😀

            i got him because I needed to fund Downing and Sanchez in. Was gonna do Welbeck to Sakho but wasnt keen on doubling WHAM. Then i remember Austin just scored against Chelsea and is in that price change. Had a look at his home fixtures and thought he is my man. ownership 1.0% 😎

            1. Christina.
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Yeah, I've looked at the ticker for the Festive season.

              Right up there with Sakho/Bera in last 4 weeks with Goals/Attempts.

              I think he is my Pele replacement.

      2. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        It always feels like that when getting a player after missing a few hauls. 'Surely it can't continue' is the usual train of thought, especially when we feel we have been 'forced' into the move.

        1. Christina.
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Correct. It hurts.

          1. I.A.P
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            I wish I'd done AdM this s week instead...

            1. Christina.
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Ditto.

              1. I.A.P
                • 11 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

                Damn Sanchez fear....

                1. bigbudgie
                  • 11 Years
                  11 years, 1 month ago

                  Having both solves that 🙂

    2. Siva Mohan
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      need your help Ryan.. please reply on my above post..

    3. Honeybadger
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Would have liked to get him in instead of Sterling but don't know who else to sacrifice. Costa, Kun, ADM, Siggy and Baines possible, none worth a hit though, so I'll bite my nails this gw hoping Sanchez blanks...

      1. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        I think you might be asking for trouble. Sanchez is in exceptional form right now.

        1. Rolls-Royce
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          So, are u captaining Sanchez, Ryan??

          1. Ryan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            No not when Aguero and Pelle have the fixtures that they have. On another week, maybe.

            1. Rolls-Royce
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Isn't it form over fixture 😉 ?

              1. Ryan
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 14 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

                Aguero has form and fixtures.

  9. applebonkers
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    keeping naismith for good fixtures is a curse, he's a bumpy track bully

    1. UnderstandablyDistraught
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Priced as a stock car and not a Ferrari so that seems about right

    2. Wiz
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Ditched him couple of weeks ago. Never been happier

  10. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Which option sounds best with this lot?

    a) Welbeck > Sakho
    b) Hazard + Welbeck > Downing + Aguero
    c) something else

    Attack is

    Hazard, Sanchez, ADM, Siggy, Albrighton
    Costa, Pelle, Welbeck.

    1. Snikii
      • 11 Years

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Forgot to add 2 FTs.

        1. Lallana_
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Oh. I'd just downgrade Welbeck to Sakho then. Free up funds and have a more inform player.

    2. Jay_
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Probably B, and look to ship Pelle for Sakho in a few weeks

        1. Jay_
            11 years, 1 month ago

            After seeing you have 2ft...
            A and then after the break Pelle > Aguero, Funded by either Hazard > Downing or preferably keeping Haz and finding a way by downgrading am defense but not Baines

        2. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          I don't like any of the teams I have seen with both Kun and Costa in them. I don't know why, but I just think it's an either or with so many good other cheaper striker options it seems like a ton of wasted value in that second striker to go with two double digit priced guys. If you do transfer option a..what are you planning to do with the funds?

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            No idea, my team value is terrible so I'll need to invest it somewhere.

            1. Walsh
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              I like doing a and floating the other transfer. You're team looks like it's in fine shape. Two frees into the international is ideal.

          2. Lallana_
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Neither do I. I feel as though just having Aguero right now suffices. Fabregas does the job for me regarding Chelsea's attack. Midfielders seem better at getting BAPs well which is nice. Di Maria, Sanchez and Fabregas are great to have.

            1. Walsh
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              I always knew I liked you, AA7 🙂

              1. Lallana_
                • 11 Years

                😉

        3. theBoose
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          welbeck + costa > sakho + aguero..?

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Not enough. Would need another downgrade.

            1. theBoose
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              in that case i'd do A and then do costa + pelle > aguero + berhino/austin next week. presuming you have no pressing issues in defence that is.

              1. TorresMagic™
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 16 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

                Cheers. Was hoping for a few injuries during the week to make my mind.

        4. Lallana_
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          For me, Hazard has been looking more focal in Chelsea's attack so I wouldn't get rid of him. I also remember he ripped Liverpool apart last year. I think you should keep your team as it is.

        5. Snikii
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          well i got rid of siggy last week but i am not sure if its the right call for this week, maybe look in defense

          B looks solid to me

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years

        Welbeck to Sakho or Austin?

        1. mookie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          this week? if so what am i missing?

            • 16 Years

            City leak and Welbeck is a pain.

        2. Billy Gilmore

          Welbeck is kak.

          I"m sticking with Welbeck one more week. (After that Giroud becomes a factor again.) Welbeck has apparently underperformed his stats while Sakho has overperformed. Also who's to say Sakho plays 90 mins this week?

          And not convinced on Austin really.

          1. Christina.
            • 15 Years

            QPR/Austin have very nice fixtures over the Festive Season though.

            Only 1% ownership, nailed on, penalties.

            Equal with Sakho/Berahino over the last 4 weeks in terms of goals with 3(and none of them were penalties) Two of Bera's goals were penalties.

            Leads Sakho/Berahino over the last 4 in terms of goal attempts(Sakho played one game less though)

            1. jimski
              • 14 Years

              Fair points all. I suspect he just hasn't really entered my consciousness yet! Berahino I'd definitely avoid. Over-reliant on pens and horrible fixtures to come.

        I know i keep banging on about it but can anyone out there beat 81.74% as captain percentage...and this is without Costa and Aguero

        Total captain score 188
        Captain score if you had swapped all C / VC 80
        Captain score as % of overall score 31.97%

          Nice owrk mate. I think Costa and Aguero might be the cause of peoples poor percentage. They either score big or they blank. i take it you've captianed Sanchez the last 3 gameweeks which helps lol

          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          thats insane... I'm at 42% right now, which is the highest its been all season. Still only 26 points behind 5k, but damn I've missed out on so many points!

          So depressing to see this too:

          Total captain score 108
          Captain score if you had swapped all C / VC 106

          My VC has so often scored better than my Captain 🙁

          1. Piggs Boson
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            At 2.9k I feel like I've missed out on a truly great rank. I experimented with various captains, like RvP(QPR).

            1. rickardinho
              • 11 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Thats hardly experimental!

              I captained Tadic in GW5 or GW6 iirc for 6 points, but have otherwise stuck to fairly standard choices of Costa, Rooney, Aguero... which makes it all the more depressing that I've maxed out at Aguero's 8 point captain haul...

              1. Piggs Boson
                • 14 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

                Well it got me 1pt while Costa scored 17pts! There have been others as well.

                Captaincy is difficult. It could be huge this week as well.

                1. rickardinho
                  • 11 Years
                  11 years, 1 month ago

                  Yeah no doubt. Aguero, Pelle, ADM, etc... all good options

                  I always choose the one who scores less than half as much as my highest scorer... Not A SINGLE TIME have i chosen the right guy 🙁

            2. rickardinho
              • 11 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              and 2.9k is a great rank.. 😉

              My aim going into this season (my first) was to finish in the top 10%, meaning 300k-ish... so being at 23k now with WC intact and a good team is pretty pleasing! 🙂

          Mine captains probably haven't crossed even 100pts 😐

        6. SC not pearls before swine
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          To be fair, not having Costa and Aguero probably is an advantage in that metric because a) You're able to avoid herd mentality even if there's a better option and b) if you didn't pick Aguero/Costa for their hattricks it doesn't harm your optimal captain percentage.

          That said, well done sir!!!

          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          48.51% for me. Honestly, I've picked the wrong captain every week except for the week Aguero got 19. I think that haul and Rooney's 10 (when Costa got 17) are my only double figure captain hauls.

        Does it make sense to keep Siggy? Either him or Sterling. I know Sterling will deliver points starting next week (might even have an assist this week) but he isn't worth 8.5 price tag atm

        1. Obi Wan Elokobi
          • 14 Years

          I've thought long and hard about these two and looking at their fixtures and natural talent I can't believe that they won't find their form again. I'm not going to fiddle for now and I'm leaving them as is.

        Has anyone gone back and listened to an old Scoutcast? I did, can't remember if it was the first, but they were talking about whether Rory Delap was a must have. 😆

          His truly crap. Especially when compared with his alter ego. 😉

            He just scored again. Two goals in two minutes. Can Sanchez do that? I think not.

        Really i miss Aguero in my team , Already did my transfers before Manchtser derby ,

        Any Thoughts for next GWS ?

          7 don't like the rafael pick and only way for you to get Aguero is through Costa.

        Kane scored again, could be such a bargain...

          If. Only we knew if he,l start

        Why did Swansea not sign De Guzman just seen he scored a hat trick for Napoli and didn't even realise he had joined them.

        1. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Good question, I thought he looked great for them at times last year. Perhaps he had a falling out with Monk a la Chico Flores and Pablo Hernandez? Guess they aren't short of wingers though really with Montero, Dyer, and Routledge.

          1. Obi Wan Elokobi
            • 14 Years

            He's not a winger. It looks like Ki has taken his spot.

              I thought he was 😀 nothing to see here...

        Please make my decision easier haha...

        A. Naismith and sterling -> Sahko and Chadli for free

        B. Naismith, sterling and begovic -> Pele and downing, foster for -4

        C. Welbeck, sterling and begovic -> Sahko and Sanchez, pantilimon for -4

        D. Naismith, Welbeck sterling -> Pelle sahko and Chadli -4

        My team as is...
        Krul - Begovic
        Clyne -Chambers- Baines - Wisdom -hutton
        Sterling -Fabregas -Tadic - ADM- Marney
        Aguero - Naismith - Welbeck

        Would obviously play Krul if I got pantilimon or 4.0 keeper
        thanks

          Definitely not B or C anyway taking a hit on a GK is definitely not worth it unless it is to free up funds and even then still not. A and D both look alright. Pelle's fixtures turn bad shortly though.

            It is to free funds but I really want sanchez?

              Any money itb? Can you afford Sterling and Tadic to Downing and Sanchez?

                • 11 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

                Unfortunately no only .3 in bank and thus want a 4.0 keeper for cash

        2. kesh
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          If you can do Welbeck/Sterling for Sakho/Sanchez that would be ideal. If you can't afford it then C (but I don't like Sunderland's defence at the moment...)

            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            I can go for a 4.0 keeper I have krul
