Last night we got together for another ScoutCast in Google Hangout mode and with the quick turnaround for the Gameweek deadline this evening, we’d thought we’d get this published for you today. That means there is no edited MP3 version for you this week – instead, if you want to listen to Granville and myself, you’ll need to keep your eyes from the screen, open a new window over the top or be hypnotised by our beardy, swarthy looks.

It’s not only Granville and I that you’ll need to avoid. Jonty is back with us again, rolling out his best Santi Cazorla impression, while Green Windmill (aka Andrew Gibson) is also in the house, looking down on us all from his 115th FPL rank position.

We’re going to endeavour to keep this coming on a Monday evening at 10pm. Although next week’s is already in doubt because Granville is globetrotting in Spain on a stag do (yes, I think he’s surely too old for that kind of thing, too).

We’ll keep you posted on whether we’re still on target for Monday night or if we shift to Tuesday – we may even take on the ScoutCast without dear old Granville – we’ve lining up Dufflinks (aka Simon March), the FPL number one ranked player, to compensate.

Subscribe to our You Tube channel to get prior warning and look out for the dedicated Hot Topic on Monday.

The Hangout

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

          Thanks. My team looks good with players in great fixtures and 4 DGW players for no hits...

          ...so it'll probably be a red arrow for me. 😆

      Has there been a spurs presser today?

      1. Sponge-worthy
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Spurs Presser...that would be a cool name..

    4. Kshitiz Basnet
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      looks like everyone is going with Kane, i will go with Eriksen with a gamble..
      Not much of a gamble though

    5. Shah G

      Giroud>Austin(-4)?..

      1. Whattheheck!
        • 12 Years

        not for me

      3. La Roja

      4. I am 42
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        do you think giroud will play more than 60 mins?

        if so no, and here's my reason

        assume giroud score 1 and austin score 1 in EACH
        they both score similar points

        giroud seems to have better chance to score more after this gw

      5. Shah G
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Thanx guys.. Need to just close FPL and stay away till deadline..

    6. Whattheheck!
      • 12 Years

      Foster / Ospina
      Alderwield / PVA / Naughton / Wollschield / Dawson

      1. mipola
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Foster

        PVA,Aldy,Dawson

            • 15 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            you rate ballerina over foster above but foster + Dawson instead of Ospina?

            1. La Roja
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 2 months ago

              Yes

              Ballerina attacking threat. Simples

              1. Hansel
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 15 Years
                11 years, 2 months ago

                ok cheers. Im contemplating between Bellerin and Dawson so was a bit curious

                1. La Roja
                  • 14 Years
                  11 years, 2 months ago

                  I see your point, not an easy call gotta say

                2. walkman666
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 11 Years
                  11 years, 2 months ago

                  I've gone back & forth on Dawson vs. Bellerin myself several times. When I posted the question, I'd say of about 6 folks, 4 said Dawson. Throw in La Roja's preference, and it's 4 to 3 in favor of Dawson, which is clearly too close to call. When I did some extensive research (flipped a coin), it came up Bellerin. This is hard science, man.

                  1. walkman666
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 11 Years
                    11 years, 2 months ago

                    Ultimately, I think Dawson might have a better chance to get a clean sheet given the way West Brom (and Villa) have been playing of late, whereas Bellerin has a stronger chance of getting involved in attacking points. Arsenal are also stronger of late (excluding Monaco debacle).

              ballerina being Bellerin..

      Was'nt it Middlesboro that had Tripple Gameweek a few years ago, not Birmingham or Blackpool?!

      1. SPorting
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Kane (C)

      2. Viper
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Birmingham definite had one. I still have nightmares of Zigic..

        1. Optimus.
          • 15 Years

          This 😥

      3. pompeyfan
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        not Middlesborough, definitely Birmingham though

    17. Viper
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      So what has the general concensus been on whether to bring in Spurs defenders for a hit?

      I could start Bruce (SUN) or Wollscheid (EVE) rather than bringing in Rose..

      1. Reacher
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Im avoiding it + Davies could mean 1 game only for Rose

    18. flippetyflop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Is clyne to vert for a -4 crazy?? And does Van Aanholt to Rose for a -4 make any more/less sense?

      1. HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I'm playing Clyne and considering playing PVA

        Make of that what you will

    19. Lallana_

      As a non-Giroud owner I'm pleased many are getting rid of him.

            I think you "may" be a little biased though? 😉

      • Artorias
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Play Wolly or Bellerin? Other defenders are terry, bertrand and baird.

          • 14 Years

          Vertongen has amassed a paltry 64 points so far this season. am amazed he is even being considered by people. spurs will concede in both games.

          1. Santi sensei
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            Atleast thier fixtures are easy on paper 😉

      • RuudVanNistelrooney
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Pick three out of : Lescott/Kosc/Hutton/Terry/Clyne

      • Holmes
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        1st on bench: Amoebi or Wollscheid?

        1. Artorias
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          wolly

        2. HuttonDressedasLahm
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Sammy or Shammy?

          1. Holmes
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            That Newcastle on, Sammy I guess

      • HuttonDressedasLahm
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        So, as us seasoned pro's know, dgws usually go wrong (James Milner for Villa, off injured in game 1 after 15 minutes)

        Who is going to poop on the parade? A single GWer Sturridge? Aguero?,
        or some rotated in player? Chadli/Dembele?

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Dier

          1. HuttonDressedasLahm
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 2 months ago

            Davies 🙂

      • PGR
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Rose, Walker or Vertonghen?
        I'm sick of Phil Jones. Selling him for a hit.

        1. Ser Football 42
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Vert most likely to play both games in my opinion

        2. Le Limpar
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          I think Rose is a good pick. He's so headless chicken-esque in his attacking that he'll score a few more goals through the season which will make up for Spurs having one of the worst defences in the division (stats wise).

        3. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Rose for me

        4. Santi sensei
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Vert

      • Total Foot 5
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        which opton will score more? thnx

        1.pva hul
        2. -4 hit : haidara>Rose SWA QPR

        **if pva starts and sun get a CS, pressure will be one for Rose to get 6 pts just to break even in these 2 games.

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          1 if PVA starts, 2 if he doesn't i guess?

      • SuperMario
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        1 FT and 1.7 in the bank is:

        Pants
        Bellerin -- Wollscheid -- Dawson
        Hazard -- Mane -- Sanchez -- Eriksen
        Kane (c) -- Giroud -- Aguero (vc)

        4.0 .. Puncheon -- PVA -- Jones

        Would save the transfer or:::::

        A: Pants --> Loris (if rumours true)
        B: Jones ---> Toby (if he starts)
        C: Giroud ---> Austin
        D: Other??

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          B or D

            11 years, 2 months ago

            thanks Superdunny....

        Be interesting to see how Liverpool lines-up:

        Lallana worked his socks off last game so he may get a rest.
        He's also been playing a lot of football lately.

        Sterling could be dropped for Sturridge too because Lallana/Coutinho played better than him.
        BR may even try him at RM to teach him a lesson.
