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.

    That's the only time Adam Johnson's been in a box all season.

    At work and just noticed the comments, sorry for not replying earlier.

    Playing in a keeper league, someone has taken Kane so I can't choose him, consequently I'm stuck with the dilemma of going for a captain of:

    A) Aguero
    B) Eriksen
    C) Austin

    Recon Aguero is probably the best call, any difference of opinion?

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

      Kun will probably go nuts this GW... although Kane has two bites at the cherry

    2. Hy liverpool

      Keeper league??? . May I ask
      C imo

      1. Mind över Mata
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        If a player gets picked, you can't take him - makes it much more exciting

  3. Slash
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Is Austin > Giroud worth a -4? I'm not worried about the money side of things as much as the points return being enough to substanciate it given I won't give Austin the (c) armband

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

      I don't think it's worth a hit

    2. 50 Shades Oshea
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      ye i would say it is if you have other arsenal cover

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

        Sanchez/Kosc are in already..

        1. 50 Shades Oshea
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          would get rid of giroud then as can see austin scoring and got enough arsenal cover

    3. Slash
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Let me rephrase :S .. I meant Giroud > Austin (doh!)

      1. Simon March
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Looks like a good transfer but not for a -4 imo. Giroud is a good player to have.

  4. 50 Shades Oshea
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    start one or bring vertoghen for one of them -4

    a) pva

    b) vlaar

    thanks

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

      I'm not sure Spurs will keep a cleanie this GW... I'm hesistant to take a -4 to get in any of their defenders as they don't have a particularly awesome run of games after the DGW...

      1. 50 Shades Oshea
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        ye you probably right, just can see vert scoring and keeping one cleanie, but will probably just wait and bring ivan in with chels dgw in 32...
        thanks

      2. 50 Shades Oshea
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        who would you play a or b?

  5. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Play Naughton or Zouma? Would Zouma come on for 1pt if he is on the bench for example?

    1. 50 Shades Oshea
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      would do zouma as can see swans conceding

  6. Dosh
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Eriksen in for -8 ??

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

      He's gonna have to have 2 blinders.

  7. foley_fd
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Austin is the anomaly on this DGW.

    He could blank, and he could fire 4 goals.

    Flip a coin and back away.

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      2 goals +assist +5bps

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

        #optimistic

    2. Doolittle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Surely every player could blank or fire 4 goals?

  8. Cousin Greg
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Walcott > Erik
    Rooney > Austin
    for -4.
    yay or nay

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Big yay

      1. Cousin Greg
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        got Roondog last gw and gave him the armband.
        Maybe that's what stopping me from pulling the trigger 🙁

        1. Hy liverpool
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          😀 I know that
          Wally→eriksen ?
          What stopping you??

    2. JogaSemmedo
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Rooney loves scoring against Newcastle. If I had him I'd stick with him.

  9. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Pick 3 to play please gents:
    Bertrand
    Terry
    Dawson
    O'Shea
    PVA

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      First 3

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Thats what Im currently on.

        1. Cousin Greg
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          First 3.
          hull- sunderland can go anyway
          last time hull beat them 3-1 at their home.

    2. Doolittle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I have the same bar Jones for O'Shea and I'm playing the first 3

  10. kenzo.
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    If you had to drop one from the starting eleven.....who would it be?
    A. Bellerin (A) v QPR
    B. Kompany (H) v LEI
    C. Terry (A) v WHU
    D. Dawson (A) v Villa

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

      Bellerin or Dawson for me

  11. foley_fd
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    QPR have averaged 0.8 goals per game against the current top 8 sides this year. This increases to 1.0 goals per game when playing at home.

    QPR failed to score at WHL, and scored a penalty at the Emirates.

    Stats.

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Austin (c) ?

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

        Not for me, but only because I have Giroud and a woeful defence, so have decided to address that and hope Austin doesn't run riot.

  12. ebow14
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Who to play out of:
    Terry (A) vs WHM
    Dawson (A) vs AVL
    Clyne (H) vs CPL
    Pva (A) vs Hull
    Wolly (H) vs Everton

    Cheers guys

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Terry dawson clyne

      1. ebow14
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers mate, on that atm

    2. Simon March
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I think I'd have Terry, Clyne, Wolly out of those.

  13. ramezhp
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Who should I bench Dawson or Mane?

    if i bench mane ill have 4 - 3 - 3 and if I bench dawson Ill have 3-4-3

  14. Rhinos
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Ayoze (8th attacker) to Zamora -4?
    Were it just bout this week I'd laugh it off but would mean can get Ivan next wek

  15. Nesvy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Pick one pls:

    PVA / Hutton / McShane

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

      pls allow at least two comments :/

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

        Hutton?

  16. adp1113
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Quick please, need to go out for dinner in 30!

    1) Giroud to Austin.

    2) Giroud + AJ to Austin + Silva (-4)

    Thanks!

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

      3) save

  17. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    If PVA isn't in the starting xi tonight can we conclude he is no longer worth having as Sunderland cover?

    I want him for gw29 but am thinking if he doesn't start I will get Bertrand in for him, despite meaning Id either have to play him away to chelsea in gw29, or play Wolly and Dawson against each other

    If I get Berty this week I can play him over Bellerin/Dawson, better cleanie odds than both of those

    Reasonable thought process?

  18. Lookalu
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    More likely to keep a clean sheet, hull or Sunderland??

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

      I have the same question 🙂

    2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I think it's gonna be 1-1... Gotta feeling about Hull

    3. Coaly
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Neither

  19. OptimusBlack
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Who to C Aguero or Kane ?

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

      Go with Kane

  20. GuillermoDickero
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Start 1 out of Dawson or Wolly - I already have Foster.
    Do we think WBA will keep a CS against Villa?

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

      We do:)!

    2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'd start Wolly since u got Foster.

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

        My other 3 defenders are Naughton Terry and Fonte
        Out of those 2 i'm starting Terry + Fonte
        My backline will be
        Terry Fonte Wolly

        GTG?

    3. GoRedz
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      3 CS in a row for wba, and it's villa. I'd play dawson

  21. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Bench one:

    Bertrand (CPL)
    Bellerin (qpr)
    Dawson (avl)

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

      i'd say bertrand (i'm benching clyne)

    2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Out of this 3 I say Bertrand

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

        What?

        SOT at home to Palace?

        I'd bench both of Bellerin and Dawson above Bertie.

  22. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    If PVA starts tonight should I play him over Janmaat(mutd)?

  23. ramezhp
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    bench dawson or mane (and have 4 defense)?

  24. shermonno1

    1. foley_fd

    Krul (Heaton)
    Clichy, Bertrand, PVA (Jones, Wisdom)
    Sterling, Sanchez, Hazard, Henderson, Di Maria
    Giroud, Kane (c) (Diouf)

    A) Di Maria or Sanchez out for Silva?

    D) Any other options welcomed

    Cheers!

    1. foley_fd
      • 11 Years

      ADM out for Silva

    2. shermonno1
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I'd take Silva as well over ADM...off the back of two losses (CL and against L'pool) City will be going hard for a win

      1. shermonno1
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        ADM out for silva sure...

    3. LC1
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      B probably.
      Or could do both or perhaps ADM for Erikson.
