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.

    Please RMWCT (to be played after this GW):

    Pants Foster
    Terry Clyne Fonte Wisdom Wasilewski
    Sanchez Hazard ADM Siggy Puncheon
    Aguero Austin Kane

    Will play Chelsea and double saints most weeks, but the cheapies sub in nicely for one or both of Clyne/Fonte for their hard fixtures.

    Siggy and Puncheon rotate well home /away too.

      Auger possibly. At 75% but they are known for not being too accurate.

      Hazard is the more attacking player, so will likely out score Fab in most weeks, but also has the tendency to go missing during games, which is where Fabregas (Mr. Consistent) is likely to pull back the points.

      I've got both, but probably would stay with Hazard this week if I had to choose.

    To Granville and Mark.

    MIrralas and Chadli especially aren't fantasy island risks. Just classic players that anyone could transfer them in . ..
