The ScoutCast – Episode 143 – Yellow

Far from a tribute to Chris Martin’s middle of the road act, this week’s ScoutCast reflects on the sea of yellow flags that have flooded our Fantasy Premier League squads over the past week. You’re nobody unless you’ve collected at least four by Saturday morning.

The uncertainty caused by phantom international break injuries dominates proceedings as Granville and I mark a return to the studio. Whilst I start praying for Georgie Boyd to step up, my co-host begins his campaign to hypnotise me into getting rid of Branislav Ivanovic before he starts putting further daylight between our teams. I’m refusing to gaze into Granville’s eyes.

Elsewhere this week, we catch “Cup Fever” and resurrect the ScoutCast team. Sign up and you could soon have the pleasure of knocking Granville and I out of our own cup competition. Providing we qualify of course – that’s far from a given.

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

    I want to do a -12...

    PVA > 4.5
    Eriksen > Downing
    Pelle > Costa
    Welbeck > Austin

    With the exact money left to upgrade Clyne > Azpi next week.

      Pfft top post as well.

      -12????? Madness. Just do Welbeck for Austin.

      1. Wouter
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Want Costa in there though, doesn't even have to play close to his best to score goals in that Chelsea side.

    3. BeachBadger

      Downing mightnt play. DO you need that 4.5m to play this week? Pelle could also do well this week. I would rather do the -12 next week with the azpi move though I'd be loath to take a -12

      1. Wouter
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I know, I don't want to take any hits, only have had to take 1 so far this season. Just seems that there are so many transfers I need to make.

        1. BeachBadger
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Me and all. The PVA one you can scrap for now unless you need a defender. Downing migntn't play so that doesnt look too good this week. Welbeck to Austin maybe decent but Welbeck might outscore Austin this week.

    Yo! Which one of Chambers, Duff and Hutton should be in my starting 11? And order of subs?

    1. World XI
      • 11 Years

      Play Chambers or Duff imo

    2. The Hindu Monkey

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I interpret this, "lack of price rises" as you made an early transfer of a healthy player to one that a) might now be injured, or b) hasn't risen in price sufficiently for your liking. You now have several other injury concerns and will need to take points hits but you're already 50+ points behind you ML leader.

      Oh well. Sh!t happens. Buck up!!

      You can't leave FFS by choice. You've heard how the mafia leave a horses head on your pillow? Well it's even worse when you are a horse

  4. Railwayman
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Which one to buy, Sanchez or Hazard ?

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      is this even a question?

      1. enrico.palazzo
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        The question is who will score well from now (very valid) not who has scored more over the last few weeks

    2. Tex
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      On form Sanchez, fixtures Hazard.

      If only one I'd go Sanchez.

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Would get Sanchez this week, surely there will be loads of goals either end at tge Emirates

  5. Buck The Trent
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Baines, ADM to Terry/Azpi, Sanchez z (-4). Yes or no?

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      very tough. ADM is going to play and could kill Arsenal on counter as only Utd player with pace.

    2. Sharkytect
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Not worth it at all. Leave it, keep baines in your team, take the 2 transfers next week.

  6. HP.
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Is moore likely to start?

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      50/50

    2. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      No

  7. The Hindu Monkey

    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Baines owners. If you're transferring out (IF) are you leaving the cash to bring him back in a couple of weeks or just throwing caution to the wind and going all out short term...

    Personally I won't be transferring him out.

    Although that's mainly because I have six other players more doubtful than him...

    1. daveoafc77
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Would only get rid if I wanted him out medium/ long term (which I don't)

    2. Not Irish
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I'm transferring him out and going uber at the back. The balance of my team has been pissing me off since I brought him in anyway.

    3. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Anyone transferring him out is a bit silly really.

      1. Not Irish
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        All that advice you got has gone three sheets to the wind eh.

      2. The Hindu Monkey
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        love these two posts next to each other... both said with such conviction

    4. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      if I transfer him out, I would reinvest the money and get Rooney for Pelle.

      Keeping him though.

    5. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Probably gonna sell him tomorrow. No plans to get him back

  8. daveoafc77
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Mahrez worth a punt as 5th mid?

    1. Railwayman
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      No, I have him, 0 minutes played last two GW's.

      1. daveoafc77
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        The options are so limited in that bracket arent they

  9. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Is it time to hop off from Baines wagon? Surely someone like Azpi could match his scores.

    Can't see him getting more than two cs during next 7 gws and he won't keep getting those pens and assist at this rate.

    1. Not Irish
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      And that's if he plays.

    2. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      why not? Everton have lots of great fixtures. Azpi wouldn't know a goal if he scored it in his own net.

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Next three isn't that good Tottenham & City away and Hull at home.

        1. Iwantmorepointsthanks
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          1 clean sheet
          1 goal
          2 assists

          and a few bonus points 🙂

    3. Iwantmorepointsthanks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I think he will continue to get the points. Everton actually started badly in defence, so much room for improvement.

      and Baines missed a penalty against United and a huge point swing with that.

    4. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Thought about this for a while. I decided no...unless the extra cash will benefit your team. Chelsea haven't been strong defensively this year and Baine's attacking potential is immense. He missed a penalty at Utd yet still has 6 goals and 2 assists to his name. Impressive for a defender.

      1. Klopp's Kids
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        2 goals, 6 assists* 🙂

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          😀

      2. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Dropping Baines to Azpi is only for getting Costa back.

        1. Klopp's Kids
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Just looked at your team. It would be immense with Costa in there. I would do it as long as you replace Baines with Azpilicueta or Cresswell.

  10. Nickofoz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Great, so Hutton is fit. Does it make sense to start him over Chambers?

    Also, is this the right bench order:

    Chambers, Boyd, Moore?

    My only two doubts are Downing and Baines.

    1. World XI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Villa have so many injuries in defence. Would play Chambers.

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Ok. Thanks.

  11. BeachBadger
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    See talk from Lambert on the Scout Tweets. Any word on Hutton?

    1. Not Irish
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Good to go

      1. BeachBadger
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Fist pump for the little things 😆

        1. Not Irish
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Take what you can get. I'm in a shambles right now between Baines and Sakho. Looks like one of Dummett/Yun will be coming in along with Rooney.

          1. BeachBadger
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Im bringing in Azpi so Hutton and CHambers on the bench can cover Baines. Sakho Im more worried about. Boyd to come in but dont think it's worth a hit to bring in anyone else.

            1. Not Irish
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 7 months ago

              Rooney to kick off this week. Think he bags a brace against the Arse.

              Pick two of Dummett, Hutton and Yun...

              1. BeachBadger
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 7 months ago

                Hutton amazing fixtues. Any maybe Yun

                1. Not Irish
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 7 months ago

                  Yeah, Hutton the clear winner. Which of Dummett and Yun is doing my head in. Planning a transfer next week as well to go uber at the back. So if it's Dummett I'd rather bring him in as he has the best fixture this week and is set to rise tonight. Ugh.

                  1. BeachBadger
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 7 months ago

                    Yeah if you're planning for the future aswell probably best to bring Dummet in now then

    2. Woy of the Wovers

      Ireland uses sage for injuries!!! That won't work.

    I have 7 players rated at 75% doubtful. That is surely a record.

      Bit of a cracked record though.

      Any article that puts S.Taylor and 'commanding centre half' in the same sentence, definitely can't be trusted.

      Hope so! Both for FPL and real life, has really turned a corner since coming back into the side.

    Is Dummett nailed on at Newcastle?

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      short term yeah

    2. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I don't see them playing anyone else at the moment. For the future, you never know. Santon is coming back soon.

    3. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Yes.

    4. Woy of the Wovers
      • 13 Years

      Not nailed. Paper-clipped.

    5. CABAYE4
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yep, gone from strength to strength this season, and an academy boy to boot. Not been dropped anytime soon.

        Cheers folks! Next few weeks will do.

    6. World XI

      Ryan Taylor and Santon when back to threaten. A couple of bad games is all it takes.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        You really have not understood Dummett's development, this calendar year, have you? 🙂

        1. World XI
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Been very impressed with him. Watched him live a few times. Had sterling in his pocket 🙂 so yes I do understand.

  18. Punty
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Caved and did a -4 for ADM -> Hazard.. good to go? Benching in order or play Berahino instead of a yellow-flagged Downing? Thanks!

    Krul
    Clyne Baines Dummett
    Sigurdsson Sánchez Downing Hazard Chadli
    Costa Agüero

    Subs: Schmeichel Berahino Duff Wisdom

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Play Berahino.

      1. Punty
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        For Downing right? Thanks

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Yup.

    2. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Berahino vs Downing...that's a tough one. I'd probably say Downing still. Regarding the -4 doing ADM>Hazard...that's brave. We'll see in three weeks whether or not it was worth it.

      1. Punty
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Bit afraid that Downing gets 20minutes at the end after Nolan+Carrol fails.. or what do you think? Yes I'm aware it's a brace decision, its more gut than brain maybe:D

        1. Klopp's Kids
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          If you're scared of that play Berahino. I just think Downing is more likely to score/assist if he plays a full 90 minutes. Do what your gut says on this as well 😀

  19. The Iron Tulip
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    What are people doing with Sakho?

    Is Sakho > Austin for a hit silly? Or do I just play one of Boyd/Moore/Hutton

    1. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Don't take the hit.

    2. World XI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Play Boyd. Stoke have a patched up defence.

    3. daveoafc77
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yea its silly IMO. Use your bench

    4. BeachBadger
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Think I'll just bench him. Well play and hope maybe

    5. Woy of the Wovers
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I'm steering clear.

  20. The Light Knight

    £21m for 1 year of Falcao injury news 🙄
    ..with an option to make it four years. Super

      Plus he is actually 30 and not 28....

    3. Captain Shirokov

      Great deal for United, they all said.

      He will be essential, they all said.

      1. CABAYE4
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I most certainly did not.

        I think I might have mentioned the words 'woeful defence' and 'waste of 150M' a fair few times...

        1. Captain Shirokov
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          United fans, I mean. 😛

          1. CABAYE4
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Ah well come one, who listens to them!

            To be fair, even some Man U fans didn't know what was going on. If it had still been Moyes making the transfers, they'd have been up in arms.

            Van Gaal's a big name, but he's got a lot to answer to, everyone knew that he needed to sort out the defence, and he hasn't. You can blame it on injuries all you like, but not a single defender in their squad is of 'Man U quality', with the possible exception of Rojo (as a LB not a CB!)

            1. Captain Shirokov
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 7 months ago

              Well said. To much emphasis on attacking players (although they did get Shaw, Rojo and Blind) and not enough focus put on defence. All good teams start from the back. You need to have a solid back 4 to be able to build anything substantial.

              1. CABAYE4
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 7 months ago

                I'm really not a Shaw fan, think that money could have spent a lot better, but he could pay off in the long term.

                Rojo is a good fullback, but he looks vulnerable at CB and Blind is a replacement for Carrick, Man U fans love him so probs don't think Blind is any better (I do but he's no superstar)

      2. Woy of the Wovers
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Doos has the list, I hear.

      3. The Light Knight
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        It's only a bad deal if you forget we had Chica and Welbz and gave them to CL teams

        1. Captain Shirokov
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Not only to CL teams, but Welbz was given to Arsenal - one of United's main competition in the top four this year.

  23. Rhinos
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Was all set the boring transfer of Moore to Dummet but having looked i just dont see when im gonnna play him other than this week, therefore he doesnt become much more useful than Moore.
    Instead Im thinking Baines to Ivan with the intention of getting Baines back after the spurs game. Ivan could get a big score v West Brom and Sunderland.
    Is this stupid?

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      no, solid

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Newcastle cs against QPR far from easy especially with their patched up defence, would feel a right numpty if Baines makes the hammers game though!

    2. Klopp's Kids
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I would say so. You're using two valuable transfers to have a one week punt on Ivanovic. If you keep Ivanovic...that's a different story. I'd say keep FT.

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        defo not keeping free transfer, got 2 yellow flagged defenders and Moore prob wont start so could easily end up with 10 players

        1. Klopp's Kids
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          In that case it's not as bad as a move. I would continue with Ivanovic until Everton are done with City though.

    3. Robben Mee Blind
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I did Moore to Dummett last night to sure up my bench for the weekend (and beyond). Pondered swapping out Baines for a Chelsea def but didn't feel right. I only got Leighton in just before the Sunderland match though

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        id do it if Baines was def out but would be fuming if swap him out and he plays.
        Tough choice, Dummet just doesnt excite me, think QPR will score then he'll rot on my bench anyway

        1. Robben Mee Blind
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah I'm not convinced by him either. It's not a transfer that's given me a warm, fuzzy feeling!

  24. Kip
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Fab => Haz (-4)

    probably stupid, but i'll do it anyway. Get in there, you beautifull flat track bully!

    1. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Good move tbh. Hazard will explode soon!

  25. Yinyang 42
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I'm thinking of doing a transfer of Fabregas & Tadic to Hazard & Chadli for a -4 hit. Is this worth it? Will the sky fall in?

  26. Puyol Pants Up
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Play a Stoke defender at home against Burnley? Or play a Newcastle defender at home against QPR

    Lots of people seem confident that Burnley will score and that Boyd will be big this week. :/

    1. John t penguin
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Newcastle have defence injuries and against scorer in form

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah, Thats why I'm starting Cameron over Dummett at the moment.

  27. The Left Duke #3
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    What's peoples opinion on taking hits??? Especially in light of all the injuries this week.

    I feel if you take a -4 hit then both players you bring should start.

    Thoughts?

    1. Kip
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      you are right.

      i'd say every player you bring in should start, doesn't matter if you've taken a hit or not

    1. Puyol Pants Up

      Don't bench Baines!

      1. Every Dog Has Its Day
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Is it worth me to play the players who are on yellow? Fabregas, Baines and Downing?

        1. Puyol Pants Up
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Yes.

      2. Woy of the Wovers
