The ScoutCast – Episode 154 – Beard

With Granville sulking on sabbatical, it was left to myself and Jonty and his flourishing facial hair to hold the fort, ably supported by this week’s guest, Luke aka D1sable.

Racking up one of the longest episodes for months, the three of us talk slippers, banish at least seven teams to the Championship and mention Jeffrey Schlupp as much as humanly possible. Despite missing Granville’s secret sauce, we also do our best to serve up the regulars, whilst addressing the quizzing and probing from the Fantasy Football Scout community – thats you.

Once again, if you escaped the horror of Monday’s live Hangout you can view the full movie below. Alternatively, you can enjoy our semi-slick, edited audio version via this link or the first player.

If you want to get the heads up on future Hangouts, be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel.

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

    out of all the arsenal attackers, who is the most nailed this weekend? id say ramsey !

    1. wslnpt
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      you're clueless, then.

    2. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Ozil

    I feel as though not captaining Kane this week is very risky.

  3. Les Bleus
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    All these fixture rescheduling for the DGWs are ruining it for those with WC left like me 🙁

    1. Saniul
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Could still be profitable if you plan it well.

      1. Les Bleus
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        True. I just kept hoping that there would be a massive DGW to really give us an advantage.

    2. Jax

      Doesn't mean anything

      1. Jax
        • 14 Years

        Reply fail

    3. ViperStripes
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Still plan to play in GW34 and set up team for GW34 and 37

      1. Les Bleus
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        That's probably the ideal plan.

    Just noticed Hull v Chelsea is the last game on TV

    1. Jax
      • 14 Years

  5. ViperStripes
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Considering dropping Sturridge this week for Benteke for a hit. Will be taking a hit next week anyway, so why not take the hit a week early.

    Replace an off form differential with an on form one.

    1. madame shelly
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      doing the same but not for a hit. dont see pool scoring shed loads this weekend 🙁

      1. Tommy J
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Yep not convinced by Sturridge and been benched a couple of times....you know it could bite us though..

    2. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I've done that change for a FT+ Walters to Hazard..

  6. FortunesAlwaysHiding
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I know Vokes was injured for a long while but how does he compare to Ings?

  7. fplking14
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    2FT 3.2m in bank

    De Gea> Fabianski/ De Gea I have foster injured
    Puncheon> Siggy/Mane

    Good moves?? and which to get in

    1. Hypnos
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      get Mané

  8. icywrists23
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    should I just do a simple swap of foster>myhill ... I have 0.8 itb.. I'd like to free up some money as well.

  9. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    eriksen or sanchez is getting swapped to siggy if either dont perform this week....... both disappointing of late

    1. icywrists23
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I have both... I'm not making any changes this week especially since the international break is coming but both of them are on the hot seat a long with downing. I'm giving downing one more week if he doesn't produce hes getting the boot ASAP

    2. Coaly
      • 11 Years

    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    a)aguero

    1. Ludo

      1. Sánchez

  11. Jax
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Where is Granville? Still annoyed with his aguero (c) for the dgw?

  12. Planet Jo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Which three strikers would you have for DGW 31? Just for that one week - no other considerations, or long term thinking:

    Kane (bur)
    Aguero (cpl)
    Austin (wba, avl)
    Benteke (mun, QPR)
    Costa (STO)

    Thank you!

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池

  13. Ed
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    How long do we think Myhill will play for? 3-4gwks?

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      should do

      1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        and therefore worth it with those fixtures and that price

  14. fplking14
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Foster De Gea
    Bellerin Wilson Clyne Azipulcueta Dawson
    Larsson Silva Sanchez Puncheon Moses
    Aguero Kane Austin

    2FT 3.2m in bank

    De Gea> Fabianski/ De Gea

  15. mr messi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Pants/Hamer
    Terry PVA Fonte Naughton Dawson
    Hazard Sanchez Ozil Eriksen Puncheon

    1. Hasselbaink Forever - Defoe…
      • 10 Years

  17. Numb
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Oh, I don't know who to captain.

    Aguero - short turnaround from Barca game

    Kane - Spurs poor last weekend

    1. fplking14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Leicester weak defence
      west brom strong defence under pulis even though away

      1. Numb
        • 9 Years

  19. nordwars

    If Messi was in FPL... how much would he be worth you reckon?

    1. Teror
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      All depends on how well he does on a wet Tuesday night at Stoke.

    2. Jax

      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Everyone would have him, so wouldn't score you anything relative to anyoen else, woudl just mean had less to lay with in rest of team. Like Suarez at his peak and possibly Kane now.

    5. Momo1987
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      How much for Hristo Stoichkov?

  23. Drip Doctor

    When Kane tombstoned The Undertaker, did he stay down? No, come on Granville, just becasue Kane burned you, there is no need to hide.

  24. Jimbo123
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    How many Leicester players do you plan on having for the double?

    I'm thinking Schlupp and maybe one more

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Mahrez

    2. 1zverGGademN
      • 9 Years

      schlupp mahrez

    3. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Zero.

  25. Ser Football 42
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    One league where Kane and Costa are same price

    who should I go with?

    1. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Costa

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 13 Years

      Kane

  26. drughi

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Bellerin

    2. Teror
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Are you MAD, fam? BELLERIN MANZ WON'T LET GOALS IN, NOT BY THE HAIRS ON YOUR CHINNY-CHIN-CHIN

      1. Beavis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

    3. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I have a feeling Walcott might start ahead of Alexis this week.

      1. Drip Doctor
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Also, Chambers might start ahead of Bellerin.

        1. Jax
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          That happened last game. Doubt it this week

          1. Drip Doctor
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Could happen, Bellerin played 90 vs Monaco in an exhausting tie.

            1. Jax
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              exhausting? hardly.

    Would you rather lose PVA or Bellerin, to bring in Toby?

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Pva

    2. John Nerdelbaum

    3. Drip Doctor

  30. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Kane, Aguero or Austin for (c) 😕 hmmmmmm

    1. 1zverGGademN
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Austin is tempting but I'm on Kane currently 😀

    2. Cooper123
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Austin looks like 3rd choice. Not much between the other two.
