With gremlins in the machine, the clock was ticking on this week’s ScoutCast as Granville and I are hurried into service.

Displaying all the urgency and determination of Ade Akinfenwa at the end of season buffet, we waste no time in driving through the ScoutCast regulars, whilst weighing the merits of when to swoop for a certain “essential” Argentine.

While this week’s low fat episode may come as a treat for some, we’re working towards a return to the full fat, high cholesterol live Hangout from next week. Keep ‘em peeled for news on that.

For now, grab this rapid recording via this link or stream the swiftness via the player below…

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

    You got to respect Southgate for possibly not selecting Sterling for the U21 team.

  9. Shifty

    All those touches and shot in the box for City...

    Krystian Bielik any good?

  11. Matsy123
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Need 2 good midfielders for 11.5 or less(altogether) already have sanchez haz and adm

    1. Hammers Select
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Downing and punt on Zaha

  12. Man Chest Hair United

    Anyone considering sahko for a liverpool defender. I am seems to be a bps magnet. Is he nailed? Surely a pool fan on here Can let me know?

    1. Nolberto Solano
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Skrtel is a better choice, more of a goal threat and BPS magnet

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

    Moreno or Skrtel as a 2 week punt?

    Moreno in midfield is an exciting prospect, but Skrtel seems more nailed.

    Thoughts? Or maybe a different 2 week punt altogether?

    1. Nolberto Solano
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Skrtel

  14. Business Dog
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Hutton or Cameron?

    1. Hammers Select
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Cameron

    2. Nolberto Solano
      • 14 Years

      Cameron

    heading off for the weekend, final hour to tweak my wildcard. How does it look?

    Forster/Green
    PVA/Wisdom/Cameron/Terry/Bertrand
    Sanchez/Hazard/ADM/Siggy/Downing
    Kane/Ings/Aguero

    Will get rid of Downing after this weekend, hull at home is too tempting

  16. Lallana_
    • 12 Years

    This Carles Gil guy better not destroy Liverpool tomorrow. Could be the random darkhorse Villa need right now.

  17. Stefan Schnoor

    best Zaba replacement?

    Have 2FT, 3.6m ITB and see Zaba as the weak link, rest of team is:

    DDG
    Zaba Terry Hutton (Wisdom / Naylor)
    Silva Hazard Sanchez Downing (Wanyama)
    Austin Costa Kane (C)

    A) Bertrand/Clyne
    B) Baines
    C) anything else?

    Thanks

    Finding it very hard to fill these gaps and be satisfied

    XXX XXX
    Terry Bertand Wasi XXX XXX
    Chadli Hazard Sanchez ADM Boyd
    Kun Kane Ings

    21.3 ITB but want to keep 2.8 to upgrade Ings to Giroud in 3 weeks

    So 18.5 to spend?

    Keeps either Krul/pants or Foster/Myhill

    I just don't know

  19. jimbobmij

    Moreno or Skrtel as a 2 week punt?

    1. Nolberto Solano

    Right I have whittled down my captain choices to Kane or Haz.

    For Kane:
    Spurs have scored 9 goals in their past 2 home games
    Kane has scored 6 and assisted 3 in his past 6 games
    Played a part in 3/4 of spurs' goals during those 6 games

    Against Kane:
    Sunderland have kept 4 clean sheets in their past 5 away games

    For Hazard:
    Swansea have not recorded a clean sheet against any of the top 10 sides this season
    Scored 2 goals in Chelsea's last 2 away games

    Against Hazard:
    Has scored 3 goals and assisted 3 in his past 6 games (Kane has better form)
    Played a part in 1/2 of Chelsea's goals during those 6 games (Kane more involved in team goals)

    Surely those underlying stats point to Kane as captain right?

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

      Hazard has the x factor but great points. Going Kane myself

  21. Cal1umz
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    --------------Guzan--------------
    ------Terry-Baines-Dummett------
    -Hazard-Sanchez-Eriksen-Siggy-
    -----Giroud--Costa--Kane (c)-----

    Sub - Myhill, Boyd, Wisdom, Naylor.

    How does this team look guys? Need any improvements?

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

      Not a Siggy fan now that Bony has departed

      Sanchez is enough Arsenal cover for me

      Rooney?

      1. Cal1umz
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Who would you swap Siggy for?

  22. This Is How We Do It

    11 years, 1 month ago

    Hi everybody, I've been lurking round these parts for ages now, and have really enjoyed (and benefited) from using FFS and the forum. Great site. I've now bitten the bullet and become a member, so, with a little trepidation, would you kind gents be willing to RMT/offer advice?

    Panti/Adrian
    Zaba/Hutton/Terry/Debuchy (inj)/Davies
    Sanchez/Hazard/Downing/Boyd/Montero (inj)
    Kane (c)/Austin/Giroud

    Both wildcards available, ITB: 7.5m

    My current thinking is that I will save my FT this week so that I can make two transfers for the next GM, and then play my WC in GM 24. My main reservation is that I'm missing out on the Aguero bandwagon and all the while his price is rising. Obviously I'd bring him in when I play my WC. Montero's presence in my squad is depressing me somewhat, but I can give him the boot when I play my WC, or perhaps sooner. Anyway, let me break this down. Do I:

    A) Keep my FT for this week.
    B) If not, who would you suggest bringing in this GW?
    C) Any other suggestions/observations about my team would be gratefully received. 🙂

      Oh, and D), is Kane as captain the best option here?

    2. A.T
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Hello and welcome. I'd use your transfer to improve the defence or get montero out. You're wild carding soon anyway so no need to save.
