The ScoutCast Episode 149 – Rushed

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.

        thanks. Got Ings in the line up at the moment for that reason, Sunderland love to park the bus away from home, plus I'll be playing Mannone. My only worry is what Spurs did against a supposedly defensive Chelsea at home. That and Chadli averages 6ppg.

    How many minutes do we think Aguero will get this weekend? Guessing it mainly depends on how the games going?

    Tied betweem Aguero, Kane and Di Maria for captain

      I don't think you'll see him play any more than 60 mins..either winning or not.

      In fact I don't think you'll see him play many games over sixty mins this side of Easter.

    First year playing, and in the midst of my wc. I like my team, but I am now freaking out a bit based on the excellent Cup thread that Kol started below as I have 7 vulnerable players. It seems like I should be prudent a move a few Chelsea, Spurs players out, no? Maybe Austin, too? Or, is this something that is handled through prudent transfers in February?

      My gut says to downgrade Ivan to Clyne, and move Chadli to someone else unaffected by possible GW27 conflicts. I need some affirmation.

      You are agree or disagree, I promise to provide you with as much NYC restaurant tips as you may desire if you come across the pond one day on holiday.

    Chelsea at Swansea and City v Arsenal are tough games, right to consider benching players from either side in these games?

    Currently deliberating Oscar, Sigurdsson, Sanchez and Demichelis, and whether cheapie defenders and mids (with kinder fixtures) are worth playing?

    Mighty risky though

          Probs in a good way as it's very solid - on WC too and had same defence, but thinking of changing as I don't like Wisdom/PVA rotation the more I look at it, so maybe an upgrade in def would be the only tweak

      Similar to my team posted above, and looks good (otherwise, I'd have a lot of cognitive dissonance!). I see your proposal as splitting hairs. Leave as-is (unless tells me above we are both fecked due to Cup blank gw issues).
