Three middle-aged beards collide to talk Fantasy Football. Hipsters? Sadly, as Jonty so rightly points out, we bear a closer resemblance to a trio of David Brents.

A clean-shaven Ryan joins us to complete the quartet and boost the credibility: the Kiwi contributor wakes fresh and ready for action to mull over the Gameweek gone, the week’s transfer bandwagons and to look forward to the weekend’s action.

Around those regulars, we brace ourselves for the latest bout of quizzing from you, the community. We tackle the potential of the Palace form guys and the unlikely contribution from Hull and Leicester, as we cast an early eye on the looming double Gameweek.

The ScoutCast was beamed out live on Wednesday via a Google Hangout and you can view the full video recording on the player below.

Alternatively, for the polished, low-fat audio version can be found via this link or the first player.

Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel and Google Plus page to keep informed of when future ScoutCast hit the screen.

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

    Down to last 16 in LMS of 98 players, £980 pot to the winner, currently thinking Swindon to beat Yeovil

    Any other suggestions and reasoning's behind it?

    Thanks in advance

    The internet never fails to surprise me 😆

      I'm on Twitch atm 🙂 Watching Lobosjr.

      1. Lallana_
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Nice, he's playing some Bloodbourne.
        This OldSpice campaign is like Twitch Plays Pokemon but IRL

        1. Piggs Boson
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          That sounds like a disaster 😆

          1. Lallana_
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            They had him hug a fake bear...then they got him to suckerpunch him. The bear got angry and killed him. He's "Respawning now..." haha

            What has my life come too.
            Might watch some BloodBourne after.

  5. Pea Soup
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    So if you had 11 this week (including Remy) would your priority be:

    1) Eriksen to Bolasie
    2) Naughton to Toby to ensure of getting 11 players if Remy (or Clyne for that matter) don't play?

    Take a chance on Bolasie??

    1. Park the bus

      1. Pea Soup
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        And play Clyne & Toby or Clyne and Dawson?

        1. Chelsea Dagger
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Clyde Toby for me

  6. JoeJitzu +42
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    The following 2FT seem sound?

    Sanchez to Fab
    Austin to Vardy

    Krul
    Terry Bertrand McAuley
    Hazard FAB Silva Eriksen
    Aguero Kane VARDY

    Panti Kosc PVA Phillips

    1. SG1

      I've just brought the same two players in.

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Are you nervous about not owning Bolaise and Murray for next 2 GWs?

        1. Ruth_NZ
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Excluding appearance points (which every player gets if they play), Bolasie has scored 63 FPL points this season. Over 35% of those (22) came in one game.

          In other words he averaged 1.5 'earned' points per game for 27 games and then scored 22 'earned' points in the last game.

          As the evidence of 27 games is more reliable than 1, I see very little reason to be nervous about not having Bolasie. In my opinion Puncheon is a sounder option and the chance of Bolasie repeating is about as high as the chance of Tadic repeating was after GW8.

          In this case we are comparing Fabregas with 3 games against Bolasie with 2. Which skews the balance even further. If choosing between the two Bolasie is barely even worth considering.

          As for Murray, in my view he is a bang average player that belongs in a Championship team at best. Whilst Palace are playing well he may get some goals but he's really not PL standard and at the age of 31 he can hardly be improving. Vardy with 3 games or Murray with 2? A more even call maybe but hardly something to be nervous about.

    2. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Mind reader!

    3. Viper
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I made those exact moves too!

  7. SG1
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    How does this look for DGW...

    Mignolet

    Ivanovic, Skrtel, Wolly

    Sterling, Silva, Hazard, Fab

    Kane, Aguero, Vardy

    1. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      You know that looks good! Could go all out and get Huth for Wollscheid?

      1. SG1
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I'll be taking -8 to get that anyway, so no more hits!

    2. Pea Soup
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Similar to mine (and most WC drafts)... except I'm probably keeping Sanchez not Silva because I have Aguero and no Giroud.

    3. blauriecon
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Mine except Morgan, not Wolly

    4. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Interesting! We're similar...

      I'm going Hendo over Mig and dropping Kane.

  8. The Non Flying Dutchman
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Best GW 33 punt.

    Bolasie or Yaya?

    1. Viper
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Bolasie

    2. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Just asked a similar question below. I've thought about it a little since then and I think I won't be picking Yaya.

  9. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    1-week MID punt

    a) Yaya
    b) Lennon
    c) Bolasie
    d) Other?

    I feel like a lot of people might draft in Bolasie this week, so Yaya or Lennon might be better picks. Dunno tho.

    1. Spencer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'm thinking of Routledge. Playing up front and has his explosive moments.

    2. Viper
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I reckon Bolasie. He'll still be a differential

    3. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      C

  10. Viper
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Good to go? No hits.

    Krul

    Terry Bertrand Shlupp

    Hazard Eriksen Silva Fabregas (Boyd)

    Kane Aguero (c) Vardy

    Bertrand & Eriksen -> Moreno & Sterling -4 next week.

    1. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Think I'll be the only one picking Nugent over Vardy, but yeah, looks good.

      1. Pea Soup
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I'm very tempted by Nugent but just feel Vardy is potentially more explosive...

      2. Viper
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Nugent could do well! Good luck! Thanks..

    2. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      You're sorted......

      1. Viper
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers. Not gonna be easy to keep up with all these wildcards 🙂

    3. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Points galore.

  11. Patty
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    On a WC is it important to keep some cash ITB for upgrades or should you a Spend all your available cash

    1. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Depends. Probably just make the best team possible. Make changes later if needs be.

    2. Viper
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Just get in the players you think will score best I reckon. As long as you have a rough plan in place on how to bring in Arsenal players you'll be fine

    3. Pea Soup
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Depends on your plan for GW35 and 36... I plan backwards.

    4. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      It all depends.....

    5. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Spend the lot or keep some back, but just be mindful of stuff like Cesc > Ramsey...As long as the price is downwards it makes life easy

  12. Pea Soup
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Play which this week?

    1) Clyne and Toby
    2) Clyne and Dawson

    Krul in net... other defender is Terry.

    1. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      1. By a mile. Expect CPL to score a few this week. SOT v STO could easily be 0-0

      1. Pea Soup
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Just don't like putting my eggs in one basket!!

        1. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          You're not. Can't think of FPL like this. You just want to pick the highest possibility for points.

  13. Patty
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Is mirallas set to be back this week?

    1. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Don't think so.

    2. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I wouldn't go near that guy at the minute!

    3. Pepereina Pizza
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      back in Belgium? maybe

  14. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    It's a shame Newcastle are so rubbish right now...those fixtures after next week are to die for. Taylor racking up FK's and corners at a rate of knots, but sadly nobody to feed and probably not many CS's either...

  15. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Transfer in Silva or Puncheon this week?

    Already have Kun

    1. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Silva for me. I could see West Ham getting penned back and destroyed similar to the West Brom Ettihad fixture.

  16. Shota Coco
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Evening all!

    Miraculously I'm still in the FPL Cup and there's six rounds to go (64 teams I think). GW33 opponent has six players not playing, no wildcard or FT and aside from that we similar teams.

    Is there any easy of finding out the teams left in it? Or does anybody have any general advice on head to head style of the game as opposed to the standard mini league stuff?

    1. Pepereina Pizza
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Look for the (weekly) community roundup articles. Usually posted Fridays. There is a link within that will take you to the tables.

      1. Shota Coco
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers. I'll keep an eye out for it tomorrow.

        Hit summary.

        1. Shota Coco
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          That's great! I'll be stalking all of those teams if I can get through to GW34.

    2. Viper
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      You're still in? Wow, best of luck!!

      1. Shota Coco
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I'll need it!

  17. Patty
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    GW 34 WC Team
    Ospina Schmeichel
    Baines Terry Moreno Alde Cameron
    Hazard Fabregas Sterling Hendo Young
    Aguero Giroud Vardy
    1.2 ITB
    Is it best to spend all money available? In this case I would do Alde > Bertrand

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Bertrand makes sense.

  18. Apollo Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Who to play between Cameron (SOU) and Schlupp (SWA) this week?

    Other defenders are Terry and Alderweireld.

    Obviously don't want to have two defenders on opposite teams, but as mentioned it could be 0-0, and Leicester don't look good for clean sheets lately.

    1. d1sable
      • Has Moderation Rights
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Cameron over Schlupp for me - Saints struggling for goals and Leicester are playing very attcking currently

    2. Jive Turkey
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Cameron

  19. Bolivian Seaman
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    My opinion about the bolasie/yaya debate: I am worried about bolasie this week but he is getting his chances via flick ons. He has more shots away from home because of the flick ons, he probably won't get them in home games. Yaya however has more shots at home and he is accurate, so it's yaya for me

    1. d1sable
      • Has Moderation Rights
      10 years, 8 months ago

      But why would Murray lose more aerial duels because hes at home?

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        He won't, there will be less space behind him at home

        1. d1sable
          • Has Moderation Rights
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Well i would go Yaya in any case, but yeah i see your point. Could argue Bolasie will see more of the ball than usual though due to WBA turtling up

    2. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Yaya for me too

    3. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I agree. 5-0 City.

  20. Cheeseoid

    Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen. How are you this fine evening?

    1. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'm lying in bed wondering why I'm spending hours on fantasy football rather than sleeping! How about yourself sir?

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I have to stay up a bit late cos I work overnight tomorrow. It helps by bodyclock adjust. This helps keep me awake usually

        1. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Are you working in the morning? You should definitely be asleep

          1. Shota Coco
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            Yeah out of bed at 8am so I make that 7:30hrs from now. I'll give it half an hour and then I'll definitely log off.... Maybe.

            1. Cheeseoid
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              10 years, 8 months ago

              Go to bed! You will learn nothing here until after the pressers

    2. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      rubbish.

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Why?

        1. Dr Dream
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          My son's only just gone to bed so I have to stay up to make sure he doesn't get up and come down stairs...and I'm knackered...

          1. The Light Knight
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            Do you mean sleep walk or just try and stay up later?

            1. Dr Dream
              • 13 Years
              10 years, 8 months ago

              Neither...He has Down Syndrome and Autism...He very often wakes up just after we think he's asleep but he simply can't be left alone to wander around the house. It's a big problem...I have to stay awake until I'm sure he won't get up.

              1. Cheeseoid
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                10 years, 8 months ago

                That must be really tough on you. Must screw you for sleep completely

                1. Dr Dream
                  • 13 Years
                  10 years, 8 months ago

                  Yeah it does...but somebody has to do it.

                  1. Cheeseoid
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 13 Years
                    10 years, 8 months ago

                    Of course they do you don't really have an option. It shows you care. I am sure you do a great job. Chin up!

              2. The Light Knight
                • 14 Years
                10 years, 8 months ago

                Ah sorry, remember you mentioning that before. Can you make up the sleep during the day?
                If you are stuck for something, I read this nice article on the Toon today. http://ashleyout.com/articles/a-guest-blog-on-the-state-of-newcastle-united-by-george-caulkin-northern-sports-correspondent-of-the-times/

                1. Dr Dream
                  • 13 Years
                  10 years, 8 months ago

                  Yeah..I'm his full time carer, so provided he goes to school I can have a kip when he's gone.

                  1. The Light Knight
                    • 14 Years
                    10 years, 8 months ago

                    Fair enough. I'm sure you don't need reminding but you're a good dad (and bloke), Wakey.

            That is very late if you are in the UK. Is he unwell or just very young?

              I guess he couldn't come downstairs if he was very young. Have a little sleep on the sofa?

              1. Dr Dream
                • 13 Years

        Are you sure?

        1. The Light Knight
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Somewhat

      Good. Waiting for my Chicago Blackhawks to win again tomorrow and a good GW of FPL this weekend

      1. Shota Coco
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Is it the Stanley cup final tomorrow? (I know nothing of ice hockey)!

        1. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          If you know that is ice hockey you know infinitely more than I

          1. Shota Coco
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            That is pretty ridiculous. I wouldn't back myself to hold that whilst on ice.

          Playoffs just started. Eventual Cup winner needs to win 4 best of 7 series, or 16 wins in total. Without question the most exciting playoffs of any sport. Hockey is similar to football (not American football) in lots of tradition and team aspects, unlike many other American sports. Of a 60 minute game, even the best player is only on for 30 minutes. Physically exhausting sport.

    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Hey all, need some help here! Missed a week due to no internet access on holidays so I am not up to date.

    Team currrently:

    panti - foster (both out)
    terry - ivan - bert - dawson - (pva)
    haz - mane - eriksen - boyd - (cazorla)
    Aguero - kane - (austin)

    2 ft and 0.5itb. I have my 3 chelsea, I need some liverpool. Ideas?

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Austin > vardy
      Foster > Howard

      1. bennyp
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        why them..?

        1. super zlatan
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Vardy has a dgw coming up. He is in form.

          Evertons fixtures are decent and they have hit some form.

          1. bennyp
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            what about mignolet over howard? I can afford

    2. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Well you will not want to buy in any Liverpool this week or your bench just becomes worse. So I would try to save a FT. You really should get a keeper, the way I see it you have a couple of options you get Schmeichel giving you a playing keeper this week and a DGW keeper for next week or you get Davis who will be a good option for the rest of the season.

      1. bennyp
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        true. vardy or murray?

        1. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Vardy. Just because he has a DGW though

          1. bennyp
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            How can i work in getting pool players though?

            1. Cheeseoid
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              10 years, 8 months ago

              Assuming you want to put out 11 players this week then the maximum you can have is 2 without a hit. You can get a 3rd with a hit. If you are content playing without a keeper you could lose one of your blank gameweek players this week for a Liverpool player and bench him. Then use your 2 FT's for 2 more. Maybe Cazorla to Coutinho? as there are doubts over Sturridge I would want to wait before getting him or Sterling because where he plays will probably depend upon the fitness of Sturridge. Coutinho should be safe enough.

              1. bennyp
                • 11 Years
                10 years, 8 months ago

                Yeh, currently I have 10 players because I just got vardy in.

                I could do foster -> mingolet and play with no keeper.
                Then caz -> cout next week.

                Or get howard/schmeichel this week and get cout/sterling + skrtl next week for a -4

                1. Cheeseoid
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 13 Years
                  10 years, 8 months ago

                  I would have just played 4-4-2 and not done the Vardy transfer I think if getting Liverpool players was the goal. As you say a hit will be needed to do it now. To be fair I think that will work out fine. I prefer the second option myself

  22. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Ivanovic or Terry?

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Probably Ivan but if you don't have the coin terry will do the job.

    2. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Both.

      Ivan if you have to pick and £ is no object.

    3. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Ivan, again if money isn't a problem

    4. The Light Knight
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Ivan

    5. The Enlightener
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      And he shall be Ivan.....and he shall be a good man.....and he.shall.be.Ivan.

    6. Pepin - RIP Absinthe

    7. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Many thanks all, thank will mean Courtinho over Sterling.....still Invanhoe?

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        *that

      2. The Light Knight
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Yup

  23. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    GW1

    Foster - Krul
    Cahill - Lovren - Caulker - Hutton - Wisdom
    Sterling - Ramsey - Eriksen - Siggy - Davis
    Rooney - Costa - Dzeko

    Only Hutton remains, and he goes this week.....

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I had the exact same strike force.

      My midfield was Rambo. Fabregas. Mata. Hedo. Marney.

      1. super zlatan
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        *hendo

        1. Jafooli
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Expected big things from Lovren, what a flop.....Caulker was once a good pick also.

          Fabregas had great early season form....

          1. super zlatan
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            Glad I never boarded caulker airways.

            That being said, I had debuchy.

            1. Dr Dream
              • 13 Years
              10 years, 8 months ago

              So did I...for about twenty minutes.

  24. Gizzachance
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    aguero single gw cap v dgw cap ...people are talking aout best dgw cap,what about aguero at home to villa ?if he scores against w ham this weekend end, think it will be difficult for aguero owners to cap haz, fab,sterling etc, any thoughts ?

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I agree, but there's so much more likeliness for a dgw player to get points. It has happened before that a single gw player has done better but it's quite rare

      1. Shota Coco
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I dare you to not captain Eden Hazard!

        1. Bolivian Seaman
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          I dare!

    2. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Hazard is capable of scoring against any opponent. I don't think his fixture against Arsenal should be a deterrent to his DGW prospects.

      1. Bolivian Seaman
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        except that arsenal will win 🙂 Come on you gunners

    3. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I will be captaining Schlupp myself. Top DGW prospect!

    4. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Haz has to be capped for DGW. Villa might surprise as they are fighting for their EPL life

    5. Gizzachance
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      i will be doing haz to,just wondered what peoples thoughts were, cheers guys

  25. Chelsea Dagger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Weird formation this week as I can't part with Sanchez Giroud as I'd lose too much value when I buy them back for DGW. GTG?

    Davis
    Terry/Jagielka/Bertrand/Duff
    Eriksen/Fab/Walters/Hazard
    Kane/Aguero

    Krul/Sanchez/Giroud/PVA

    1. The Shadow
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      By the time he's done dropping, how much will you actually lose on Giroud?

      1. Chelsea Dagger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I got him at 8.2, and don't think he'll fall below 8.6

        Sanchez came in at 10.5, so lots to lose there as well

        1. The Shadow
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          I'd trade .2 for a playing forward.

  26. Margarido
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone considering Hendo © in GW34?
    He seems to be involved in everything LIV does.
    On set-pieces and penos.

    1. 11 Angry Men
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I am considering that as well...I have two spots in midfield and am considering Hendo, Sterling and Coutinho, I am leaning towards Hendo plus one of the other two....what are your thoughts?

      1. 11 Angry Men
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Sorry, to answer your question, Hendo is preferred as he seems to be very consistent in an inconsistent side...

      2. Margarido
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I am WC next week.
        Debating between Mignolet and Skrtel to join Hendo-Sterling combo.
        Might stick it to Hendo. It's him or Hazard...

    2. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      He's not a consideration at the moment, but if Hazard and Chelsea do poorly against United and Hendo looks good in the cup, then he might be a consideration.

    3. NapalmDeath (Northern Chaos…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I think I'll be able to afford Coutinho and Sterling, so I'll probably go for that. Hendo will always be a donkey in my book 😛

  27. Jafooli
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Best three Arsenal for DGW?

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Ramsey, Giroud, Sanchez. But I have ospina so I will only choose 1 midfielder

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks Seaman....

    2. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Girioud, Ramsey, Kosc

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers Ryan....

    3. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'm rolling with

      Giroud
      Ozil
      Ramsey/Sanchez

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Expensive 😮

    4. Just A Hat
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      The Sanchez, The Ramsey, The Giroud

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Looks like popular choice...

    5. Shota Coco
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Hmm.... Sanchez, Giroud and I don't know! Probably Õzil as he's Wenger's fave.

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        No GK or def? Bellerin?

    6. A.T
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Sanchez Ramsey Giroud

      1. A.T
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Is top 1k still possible Jaf? 3 in a row would be nice.

        1. Jafooli
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          No chance Timbo....looking for top 20k this season....and ML's, which wil do me 😛

    7. Breadbin
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I don't know yet.

    8. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Giroud Sanchez Koscielny

      1. Jafooli
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah might go for something like this myself.....

    9. Jafooli
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Ramsey getting plenty of hits, that cause he's cheaper than other mids?

      1. Chelsea Dagger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        And on good form

  28. Cheeseoid
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    My team is crap this week. Just thought I would share

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      It's nor that bad, except for sturridge. Schlupp and puncheon look bad but they have the fixtures for them to do well

    2. The Shadow
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Just what I'm hoping to hear from everyone with UAE in their name!

      1. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        I am sure it is. Windies look pretty well set up I see

  29. Torres76
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Choice of two from this week onwards:

    1. Murray
    2. Vardy

    Cheers

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      2 (but 50/50)

      1. Torres76
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        If I get Murray I will end up shipping out the following week...unless he is benched for DGW

        1. Bolivian Seaman
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Murray has the best chance this week.

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      1

    3. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I've gone 2 but with Bolasie for CP cover for next 2 fixtures

    4. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      2

    5. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      2

  30. Torres76
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Best team for the DGW so far:

    Mignolet

    Ivanovic, Skrtel, Schlupp

    Sterling, Silva, Hazard, Fab

    Kane, Aguero, Vardy

    Thoughts? Have you guys got anything better on the horizon?

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Not sure on double Liverpool defence, especially when they're away both games (I think). Still, it might be a bit of a differential...

      The rest are all the right choices though.

      1. Gizzachance
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        think liv have the best dgw fix,w brom and hull who are both conceding,beside utd and ars defeats liv defence been good
