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.

    I think I read somewhere really quick recently that Eriksen likes to score against Sunderland? Might be worth a punt if anyone is looking to take one. Might as well captain him while you're at it. 🙂

      Such sound advice deserves nothing more than to be at the top of this page.

      He's only scored once against them.

      1. The Enlightener

        Yeah, well. There ya go then.

          Got the 3 bonus too! All this aside, might be a decent captain for the weekend if anyone needs a recommendation for a maneuver. I might captain him if I had him.

            Simply trade him in 😉

              Can't. Already took a hit for this GW to get Aguero in.....after WCing last GW....Not the best FPL managerial display, perhaps.

                I've been known to take a -8 before, however.......too many times 🙁

      Good stuff as expected from you

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Why thank you, spud.

    2. Skipdipper

      Nice. If only Everton could find some form

      1. President John F. Keninnsie

        Distin = essential 😉

        1. Skipdipper

          He would be in for fonte !!

            One does not simply sell Fonte...

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

          Schoolboy error clearly 🙂

          How about Distin for a new NBNC campaign?

    WC

    Forster Hamer
    Bertrand PVA Wisdom Wolls Wasil
    Hazard Sanchez ADM Chadli Albrighton
    Aguero Costa Kane

    1. No Chelsea defence
    2. Cheap defence

    Thoughts?

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Personally I'd like a bit more funds at the back. Going without Costa is an option (that I've decided to take) which will give you those funds. You seem to have a relatively low TV 🙁

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

        Yes I haven't done transfers until Saturday morning all year. I think my rank has benefitted and I still have my WC, could be a rough second half though.

        Costa Chadli Wolls to Austin Fab ?

        Might skip out on Chelsea until post gw 27 blank and use my wildcard after

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Wow great rank! You should be the one giving advice, not me... 😉

          I like those transfers. Maybe consider Kosc, he's a bap magnet and Arsenal have great fixtures after this week. I would prefer a Chelsea defender though.

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

            thanks mate. Think I'll stick. It would have to be Costa Chadli Wolls Forster for Austin Fab (Terry/Kosc/Clyne) Pants. Ill stick with my rotation for a few weeks and use no Chelsea defender as my differential

    2. KING KOUNDER
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Looking at your TV , looks good to me.

      Who is Wolls by the way ?

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

        Stoke

      2. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Wollscheid (new Stoke CB). Costs 4.5m.

  4. Skipdipper
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Question... Post ACON is albrighton likely to start still?

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

      Nope. Mahrez owns the spot. Albrighton needs to be smashing it.

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

        Curious as many seem to be including as a fifth midfielder

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

          Price and playing are factors. Likely to be rarely used if helped. Good FPL player on his day.

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

            Does free up 0.4m and as you say bench fodder
            Tempted to switch Boyd to JWP on wc

  5. Blue Lion
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    @Innsie Winsie Spider...
    WC team sorted?

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Latest draft has 0.0 left over. Meant to be?

      Is yours all done and dusted?

      1. Koflok

        1. Skipdipper

        2. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Cruel Panties
          Baines Terry Fonte PVA Baird
          Sanchez Hazard Fabregas ADM Boyd
          Agueroooooo Austin Kane

            • 14 Years

            I'm 3.1m short of affording that team!
            Ouch 🙂

            your TV is crazy Innsie, no wonder you can afford that team

            1. President John F. Keninnsie
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

            Sick team. I see we share some similar ideas, but I'm 1m short of that.

            Can't fit both Baines and Fab.

            1. President John F. Keninnsie
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Baines is probably a 2 week punt. Might still opt for another Saint over him though, or I'll get Ivanovic in that spot (and get Silva over Fab). Can't decide!

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

                Same here, just 2 week pun for me.

                It's either

                a) Baines + 9m (Chadli)
                b) 6.7m (Bertrand) + Silva

                1. President John F. Keninnsie
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 1 month ago

                  50-50 I reckon, cant split them.

          5. Blue Lion
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Baines?..hm..that's interesting.
            I am thinking of going
            Heaton/Panty
            Kosc/Fonte/Bert/PvA/Baird?
            Rest same

            1. President John F. Keninnsie
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Moses? Yuck! 😉

              Baines isn't final yet. See my reply to Koflok above. I like Kosc, that's a nice defence.

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

                Kosc ahead of berty if I already have fonte or ahead or terry?

                1. President John F. Keninnsie
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 1 month ago

                  Terry > Fonte > Bertie/Kosc

              2. Blue Lion
                • 12 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

                Btw..your team is affordable for me... But dunno whether i want to go with that defense.

                1. President John F. Keninnsie
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 1 month ago

                  Why no Chelsea defender?

                  1. Blue Lion
                    • 12 Years
                    11 years, 1 month ago

                    I dunno...Kosc seems better according to my gut.. I had the urge to get him befpre last GW.

                    1. President John F. Keninnsie
                      • 12 Years
                      11 years, 1 month ago

                      Get a Chelsea defender over Bert then?

                        😕

                        Getting him was never an idea for me until you mentioned it... Now I'm stuck in 2 minds 🙁

                      Kosc is a good option

      2. Blue Lion
        • 12 Years

        I would say so..still have 0.6 itb. I am thinking whether to keep Boyd or bring in Moses..

            You're both 0.0 left. Would you kick yourselves if didn't lock it in and prices moved?

              Nah, I actually want that to happen in a way, Baines is gonna hurt me like he has done the past 2 months!

              11 years, 1 month ago

              Have most of the potential risers locked in already. Waiting on Chadli to go up 0.1m more so I can ditch him

          2. BeachBadger
            • 12 Years

    1)heaton + gardos + 0.3itb
    2)hamer + fonte + 0.0
    Panti is the other keeper

        Innsie u think panti alone on wc is a good option

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah not bad at all. His PPG is immense and many of his clean sheets are away/unpredictable.

          1. Sid07
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            In long run is there much difference between fonte and alder

            1. President John F. Keninnsie
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              I'd say there will be. Fonte is a BP magnet.

    Any thougts on my WC team?

    Foster - Hamer
    Terry - Bertrand - Pva - Baird - Wasilewski
    Hazard - Alexis - ADM - Chadli - Boyd
    Aguero - Costa - Kane

    1. Toonzie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Should i downgrade Chadli to Puncheon and Upgrade Baird instead?

    2. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Looks decent. You may be relying on PVA quite a lot, though.

      1. Toonzie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        yeap i am indeed 😆

        should i downgrade chadli to reinvest in my def?

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Nah I can't see any decent cheaper options. Too early for puncheon IMO.

    3. TotalJustice

      good team...
      so u r also going with costa instead of austin like me.. 😉

        yeah but not sufficient funds....

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

    I cant for the life of me fill my 3rd starting defender spot for the WC team

    What is the best option under 5.4?
    Im thinkning Moreno, Jones, Jenkinson, maybe Lescott (already have Baird and foster)

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Other defenders?

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

        Okay? Anyone in particular?

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Sorry - I was asking who your other defenders are 🙂

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

            Oh. here's the team

            Foster
            Clyne, 5.4, Ivan
            Haz, Sanchez, Silva, ADM
            Aguero, Kane, Austin

            subs: Myhill, Baird, Wasil, Albrighton

            1. koza
              • 11 Years

              fonte

                • 12 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

                he's 5.6

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

                  PVA 4.2 i think

            2. President John F. Keninnsie
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Wow similar to mine.

              Set on Ivanovic? You could get Terry instead and then get Fonte/Kosc?

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

                Nah just have my heart set on Ivan. Cant change

                It wouldnt even be a problem if I downgraded him to Terry

              If you looking for Saints double up.... Gardos / Yoshida / Aldeweireld?

    2. Koflok
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      PvA and upgrade Wasil to someone who rotates

  12. Sz21
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    1. Panti, Heaton, Chambo (or 4.9)
    2. Forster, Hamer, _____ (4.8) PVA/Trippier

    Already have Clyne on the cheap. No Sund/Burnley defence
    Forster has risen 0.1 since I got him in

    My Defence,
    Clyne, Terry, Wisdom, Wasil,

    Thanks a lot.

    1. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years

      Sort of....I have Clyne and Forster.

    2. Get up ya bum

      Quality team. Quality backline. If alders was fit i'd probably double

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

      Triple up when I play WC 🙂

  15. Get up ya bum
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Rotating the gloved bandits or going solo?

    1. KING KOUNDER

      2 WBA goalies 😀

        This

  16. flippetyflop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Having Di Maria as cap and going Kane over Aguero as VC just because Kane is guaranteed more minutes....make sense?

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

      Sure. But VC won't matter with ADM playing. Not a big decision worth agonising over

    2. The Kolarov Mane ⚔
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      City 2 points behind Chelsea... Aguero will be chomping at the bit to play vs Arsenal. Besides another injury, I believe he will play the full 90 or a larger part of it.

  17. The Enlightener
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Looks like Salah might be on his way to Roma. Thank the heavens, as that wasn't working out for anybody at Chelsea.

  18. Koflok
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I'm 0.3m short of having Silva, so downgraded to Chadli.

    Would you sacrifice Boyd -> 4.3m to get Silva instead?

    1. KING KOUNDER
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'd do.
      Infact I have.

    2. kitier katba
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      yes

      Nope. Stick.

    4. Skipdipper

      11 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah I would

    5. Koflok
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I should add this is just a 2 weeks benefit in terms of Silva,

      After I downgrade Baines in 2 week time I wouldn't be having this trouble.

      But I'll be stuck with the 4.3m instead of Boyd for the rest of my life.

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

        Oh wait then

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

          Chadli has decent fixtures. More goal threat anyway?

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

            Haha cool thanks bruh. Thought so, I think Chadli is a decent punt.

    6. WalcOXladechamberGibbs
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Not for me. Chadli has consistently produced decent scores all year apart from coming back from injury. I'd almost rather him than Silva money-no-object

  19. SG1
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I have narrowed my wildcard choice down to this...

    Foster (Myhill)

    ??? - ??? - PVA - Cameron - Baird

    Hazard - ADM - Silva - Sanchez - Boyd

    Aguero - Kane - ???

    A) Baines, Cahill, Ings
    B) Wasil, Dummett, Costa

    Opinions please?

    ADM | Hazard | Sanchez | Chadli | Boyd
    Aguero | Costa | Kane

    Comments welcome. Worried about my defence actually. Is it the consensus that Baird is locked in?

    1. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure about Baird. I've tripled up on WBA defence with Foz, Lezcott and Wizdom. I'd rather have Fabs than Costa. Cheaper and same pts.

      1. ⁀⋎⁀⋎⁀⚽

  24. KeepCalm
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I just need to know the best defender option under 5.4 for my WC

    The other starting 2 are Ivan and Clyne and Foster keeper

    Possible options: Moreno, Jones, Jenkinson, Gardos (maybe) Trippier, Janmaat

    1. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Lezcott or Wizdom.

    2. Skipdipper
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Gardos then Aldy when back

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

        They have a lot of injuries. Really dents the CS chances

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

          They've survived this season already with injuries and still strong I think.

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

            So it covers me with Clyne. Shouldnt I try my hand on someone new?

            Janmaat or trippier. Attacking options

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

              Dude u can get PVA at 4.2 and invest the money somewhere else

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

                Dont like the fixtures and dont trust Sunderland defence

                People making Kane captain ffs...that puts me off

                    • 12 Years
                    11 years, 1 month ago

                    Is he nailed? I need someone nailed because my other 2 are 3.9's

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

                      ohh
                      i would say get wisdom and upgrade any of your 3.9 defender to pva..and then rotate

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

                        Foster already man...
                        Not a fan of doubling up on defenses

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

                    what do you think of Moreno? Seems decent to me

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

                      will never give u bonus more than sakho

                      so then u can get sakho as third option but u will not be able to rotate ur defense then
                      u have to options
                      1) get sakho
                      2) get wisdom and upgrade any 3.9 defender to pva and rotate them

                      1. KeepCalm

                But he plays for Sunderland !

            2. Skipdipper
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Think janmaat over priced and cs first then attack option

    3. ⁀⋎⁀⋎⁀⚽
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Of these, Janmaat IMO. Was debating getting Trippier myself, but decided against.

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

        Just recently made him an option. Proper attacking threat and decent fixtures

        1. ⁀⋎⁀⋎⁀⚽
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Well, when you consider Trip's fantasy returns to date, either he is incredibly unlucky, under-performing, or the rest of the team isn't helping him any. Red herring IMO.

            Lol
            At the moment, I am seriously thinking Moreno
            Pool getting solid at the back, he is practically playing a winger
            And seems pretty nailed

              I've gone for him for 2 weeks. Perfect placeholder for Alderweireld.

                Feck sake...cant seem to make my mind up on this

                Now I like the idea of Jones as well

                  I have Jones and Moreno 😀

      JONES! them fixtures doe

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

        Not nailed and united conceded five to Leicester. No guarantee with fixtures with that back line

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

          that was a one off tbf

  25. Eze Really?

    I want to free up funds to get Costa (1st time this season) and move out Fab. The only way I can really do it on 2ft's is take out Giroud and need 2.8 drop on Fab. that means 6.9 to spend on a mudfielder. (Siggy, Downing, Henderson) or take ou Fab for (Silva,di Maria) and use 2ft's next week sacrificing a high roller defender. (Kosi)

    the reason for this is I want the option of moving to Sturridge for the season finale.

    Sounds complicated but if you understand it, what are the merits?

    1. Jafalad

      Too punty. Studge needs to be monitored first. I'm firmly in the "Fabs ahead of Costa" camp.

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

        I'm in the Adm ahead of fab ahead of Costa camp.
        At least until adm does sod all for next month 🙂

        1. Jafalad
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          ADM has done sod all...for months 😕

            He'll come good

            Sssh don't ruin my karma 🙂

              I'm just about at one with my wc selections 🙂

      2. Eze Really?
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        my real reason for Costa is I will be in a position to get Sturridge if he starts firing. But what you say is true. A hell of a lot of movement to achieve one aim.

  26. Holmes

    Rooney and Sigurdsson to Pelle and Maria -_-

    1. Eze Really?
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      If Van Gaal insists on Rooney in midfield you have little choice but to move him out. The only problem is by getting Pelle it will take a lot of time freeing up funds for a possible Sturridge move in the next month.

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

        Sturridge? 😮

      Pelle? Doesn't he have something like 2 shots on target in 6 weeks?

      1. Skipdipper

    Any thoughts here welcome

    Current team

    Begovic
    Ivanovic, Bertrand, Cresswell
    Hazard, Fabregas, Sanchez, Silva (c)
    Austin, Kane, Benteke
    McCarthy, Zabaleta, Fer, Hutton

    0.3 in the bank and 1 free transfer

    Pretty set on wild carding after this week so what would be my best one week punt

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years

      Benteke out. Carroll maybe.
