An extraordinary death threat ode to Granville provided the inspiration and backdrop for this week’s Scoutcast.

My co-host wasn’t sure whether to feel flattered or mildly panicked by a community post like no other.

Recovering from the menacing tribute, Granville joined forces with Jonty and myself to assess the merits of the deadline day arrivals, before grappling with another round of community questions.

We rinse through the De Bruyne debate, the heavy-hitter slump, briefly consider buying Jonny Evans, before tentatively giving out dating advice – again inspired by the imaginations of you, the community.

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

    5. Sushant
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Leicester will concede imo & chances of Azpi & Francis getting attacking points are much more than Huth..i too am going with Azpi & Franics!

    6. Sid07
      • 11 Years

      Thanx guys

  2. Roy Rovers
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Diouf > Wilson
    Whittaker > Naughton with 2FT or can also do....

    Kompany > Kolarov
    McCarthey > Krul for -8

    Mignolet // MCCARTHEY
    Damian // KOMPANY // WHITTAKER // Richards // Cathcart
    Silva // Sanchez // Mahrez // Payet // Westwood
    Aguero // Gomis // DIOUF

    Worth the hit?

    1. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      why take a hit for two defensive transfers?

      1. Roy Rovers
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Can't see Mccarthey playing much more and Whittaker on a red.

        1. Heels_Over_Head
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          you still can play 11

          you're not using bench boost... you can have people on your bench who don't play

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      No.

      Keep Diouf unless he's definitely going to be out week 6... he has great fixtures in weeks 6 through 11

      Whittaker -> Naughton is good not great...

      Kompany -> Kolarov... if you want to, sure... albeit unnecessary unless *free* with no hits

      McCarthy you can definitely keep and just play Mignolet every week for now until you have 2 FTs and *nothing* else to do

    3. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      keep McCarthy at 4 for a gk hes a steal. everything ive seen suggests he's still the main man.

      i dont like losing a FT so id pick one of the others. Kompany for Kolarov if you have a plan for the funds it frees up.
      Diouf to Wilson is a bit beige.

      1. Roy Rovers
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Diouf to Rondon??

  3. Alittude
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    is save potential on par with CS potential at all?

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      It can be a deciding factor in marginal decisions but not really the biggest problem.

  4. Kurtinho
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    My girlfriend knows nothing about football. I'm to give her two options, Sanchez or Aguero. Whichever she picks I will captain. Apparently she's always right, so let's put this theory to the test 😉

    1. Kurtinho
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ok apparently she googled what they looked like and chose Aguero because he's better looking. We have a winner people.

      1. Bggz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        thats better research than most.

        id have gone the other way. my gf's sense of direction is so bad if im not sure i ask her then do the opposite. hasnt failed us yet.

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Link to pic of your gf please.

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years

          Don't you feed her?

          1. Kurtinho
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            No time. Too busy playing FPL.

            1. Epic Fail

          • 12 Years

          She's a bit lopsided

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Epic, get yourself into the FFScout Grand Play Offs!

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I would if I knew what they were? 😀

            1. Epic Fail
              • 15 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              Cheers. Not sure how I missed that. I'll get right on it.

                • 12 Years
                10 years, 4 months ago

                Welcome to the game #225 😀

    Your last week with me Bafetimbi & Yaya... do good !

      • 12 Years

      Who's coming in HOH?

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        A Sengali midfielder that sings songs by Wham! and a Spaniard that's half human half Shar Pei

          • 12 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          😀 I've always preferred dogs over donkeys up front

          1. Heels_Over_Head
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Subs in alter ego just to honor your comment.

              • 12 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              That's just blown my mind...

              1. Heels_Over_Head
                • 12 Years
                10 years, 4 months ago

                😀

              2. Heels_Over_Head
                • 12 Years
                10 years, 4 months ago

                off to the pool now

                see you tomorrow

  6. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Gomis or Ayew?

    Note this will change me to 3-5-2....!

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Always the striker for me.

    2. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      If you know the answer, let me know. Head melted all week trying to decide. Brought both in on WC to capture price rises and need to ditch one now 🙁

    3. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ayew serious with that question?

      ... couldn't resist

      I think with the limit of only owning 3 strikers, better to go with Ayew as you'll always be fawning for the next hot striker anyway

      1. Bggz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        this. theres space for Ayew when he has off weeks, not so much for a striker.

    4. colby_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ooo, personal opinion, but I'm not a fan of 3-5-2. Could get someone like Deeney up front if you want to go cheap.

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ayew, BPS, midfield cleanies and an extra point per goal.

    5. Manani
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      i see them scoring similarly, so ayew for me
      but tbh, considering the form, I will get both

    6. OzilFozzil
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ayew, but I also just brought in Gomis over Wilson hope I dont live to regret it.

    7. Captain Peacock
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ayew said in an interview that they need to feed Gomis the ball more. That tells me Gomis is the man.

    8. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ayew all the way, got him in this week. But if all goes well and no other pressing matters. I'm looking at bringing in gomis next week as well.

    9. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks all

  7. The Man Pastore
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Is Ayew + Gomis in my team too much of Swansea?

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      you're not alone

    2. The Man Pastore
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I plan to do Diouf to Gomis today

    3. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      IMO yes.

    4. OzilFozzil
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Ditto, currently have them both...

    5. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Meh. I don't think so. If both are on fire, then why not. You would ask this sort of question for Man city players.

  8. Manani
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    best 5m defender and best 4.5m defender?

    pondering between cedric/williams, Francis/Cathcart/Cameron/Huth

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Dawson Francis

      1. colby_
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Naughton, Francis. Dawson a great choice, too.

        1. Manani
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I already have Kolarov and Gomez (who both will probably play most weeks), is getting 2 x5.0 + 1x4.0 too much??

          I am tempted to go Dawson+Williams

          1. colby_
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Ehh, just depends on how you like to play the game. Who'd be your 4.0?

            1. Manani
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              targett
              i know he won't start coming soon, but he's just for the numbers (and potential price rise)

              1. Dreaming of Irene
                • 10 Years
                10 years, 4 months ago

                Too slow on the latter point - he went to 4.1 this morning

  9. gunnerboy
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Think my WC team is ready:

    Cech

    Kolarov Huth Naughton

    Pedro Sanchez Yaya Mahrez

    Aguero Wilson Gomis

    Bench: McCarthy Gomez Evans Westwood

    Any glaring changes I should make?
    Thanks everyone

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      What've you got in the bank?

      1. gunnerboy
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        0.2 🙁

          • 12 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          hmm i think you're pretty set.

          1. gunnerboy
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Thanks

        1. Manani
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          i would upgrade evans to dawson in that case

    1. OzilFozzil
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I like this a lot TBH

    2. Manani
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I am on WC as well, I have a very similar team as yours.
      I like it (although I am not sure about Sanchez, would rather wait on him)

      1. gunnerboy
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Being an Arsenal fan I couldn't resist Sanchez

    3. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Keepers: check
      Def: Check (but not Evans)
      Mids: Check
      Fwds: Check

      You are onto it. This is the sort of team I've been banging on about all week.

      Just missing Silva and Dawson but a good team and well thought through. You don't see that very often on here.

      1. gunnerboy
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks mate

        1. Emp
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          i would get sterling over yaya personally

  10. Jafalad
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Give me four teams that are worth following this weekend. Thinking ARS, Citeh, Norwich and SWN.

    I will then make a Play on team from out of them.

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      ManC, Chelsea, WHam, Newcastle

      1. Jafalad
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers. Aren't Wham and New playing each other? 😕

    2. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Thinking a spine of Bellerin, Kolorov, Silva, Sanchez and Kun.

      Then filling up on budgeritoes from the likes of NOR.

  11. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    I hate thinking

    1. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      "There is neither good nor bad; only thinking makes it so."

      W. Shakespeare.

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        He certainly hit the nail on the head

        1. Emp
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          one needs to balance thinking with feeling and action otherwise the mind will rule a man

    2. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      *too much.. Play it simple and be a casual sometimes - my advice

  12. The 12th Man
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Is anyone bringing in Begovic?

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Why?

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I was worried there for a moment until I read

          "According to The Daily Mail"

          1. The 12th Man
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Ok, wait until it's confirmed by a better source.

          2. Pasqualinho
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Quite right too. Yesterday they were reporting it as an ankle injury.

    2. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Hell no. Why? 😕

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Looks like Courtois got injured in training. Could be out for 2 months.

    3. The Man Pastore
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Probably next week

  13. The Man Pastore
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Ruddy l Rudd
    Kolarov l Williams l Huth l Francis l Jenko
    Hazard l Silva l Ayew l Chadli l Fletcher
    Wilson l Aguero l Diouf

    1FT / 1.8ITB

    I have to get rid of Diouf:

    A) Gomis (that would mean Ayew + Gomis in my team)

    B) Rondon (punt 1)

    C) Son (punt 2)

    D) Other suggestion (I am lost....)

    1. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Just see Gunnerboy's team above. He's done it all for you.

      1. The Man Pastore
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I'd like to have Gomis in there, just think it will be too much of Swansea with Ayew already in midfield

    2. Concrete
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Gomis or Vardy

  14. Alittude
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    best 4.5 non rotation GK?

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Butland

      1. Concrete
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Soon to be Stoke / Palace

    1. colby_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Schmeichel.

    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    3.9 defenders: Ryan Bennett or Danny Simpson?

    1. sleecc
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      WCing?

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Potentially need to free up funds on Saturday

        1. sleecc
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Ryan Bennett, only 6 defenders in their team, should have more game time, I guess.

            • 12 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Cheers addict

    2. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Not a good move burdening yourself with one. Essentially throwing away 3.9m of your budget and deleting a defender slot.

      There are no players worth shoehorning in that could warrant getting a 3.9m defender. None of the big hitters are firing - the players people are looking to get in are all mid priced.

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        That's essentially the plan, I hate leaving more cash on the bench than necessary.

  15. Manani
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    is gomez pretty much a sure starter?

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I can't see why not

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Id say pretty much. I do own him. All Liv defence was poor last game, including him. Hope lovren i the scapegoat and Gomez stays

        they did had 3 CS in a row before that.
        with just 4.8m I think I will take a punt on him

        Lovren made 1 mistake which is being focused on, Gomez was poor all game and was eventually taken off. Read into that what you will

          True, Skerel also kept heading clearances from the 6 yard box to west ham players on the edge of the box. Lovrens mistake was hilarious.

          To be honest i only think Lovren will be dropped as they have a natural replacement in Sakho. Rodgers seems to be off Enrique or (Moreno)? Who ever is the other LB

            There hasn't been much chat about how poor Skrtyl is but you are right in your assessment. Problem with Lovren is he's a Rogers signing snd a lot of Liverpool fans think that will save him

            1. Joggers Nipple
              • 16 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              Very true

                For what it's worth I think it will be the same back 4 that have started so far

      Looks fine. The captain call between Sanchez and Aguero is for every man to make themselves.

        Yeh undecided on that one.

      I would be seriously tempted to play the All Out Attack chip.

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I used it last week for the same reasons.
        And for the same reason I'm ditching Payet for Westwood next week. Too many headaches.

  18. Whats the Huth
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Courtouis. The bane of my team at the moment. U.S. Owners have had a unlucky time with him. My back up keeper is McCarthy. Obviously I'm going to wait for the pressers to see if he's injuried or not. But any tips guys, if he's injuried. Should I do a GK transfer for a hit. If so - who to?
    If not - how much longer will McCarthy play

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Damn autocorrect. Us not U.S

    2. Emp
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      no why would you do a hit unless you were sure mccarthy not starting this week ?

    3. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      It's not just Americans, it's everybody. As seems likely, he's out for a while and you have a back up who's a bit risky. But I think McC will play at the weekend - so you may be able to wait. But if you don't want to burden yourself with the Courtois transfer next week then do it for a hit when the injury is confirmed.

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks man. I'll wait till next week. And hope McCarthy plays. Sanchez is my captain so I'll be cheering on McCarthy to blank Kun

    worth keeping lukaku or trading him for Gomis even with Ayew already?

    1. Emp

      keep

      1. Emp
        • 14 Years

        fixtures arent as bad for attacking returns as first appears

        1. Alittude
          • 10 Years

          Thanks guys I think whichever one scores on the weekend will make the choice easier.

  23. El-Kloppico

    Any idea if Mertz will keep his place in the starting line-up?
    I'm planning to play him ahead of Clyne in my 3 DEF (alongside Kompany and Targett).

    But still in doubt if he'll start or will Gabriel keep his place alongside Kosc?

  24. scarlet

    Is Coutinho and Benteke to Gomis and Pedro for a 4 pointer worth it in your view?

    Subs Butland Richards Westwood Gomez 

    What would you do guys with my team?
    Not sure who to transfer in this week?
    0.5ITB & 1 FT

  27. Joggers Nipple
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Looking longer term

    A. Costa and Ozil for Gomis and Sanchez
    B Benteke and Sanchez for Gomis and keep Sanchez

    Butland/ Mc Carthy
    Williams/Gomez/ Targett/ Kolorov/ Richards
    Pedro/ Yaya/ Maherz/ Westwood/ Sanchez
    Aguero/ Wilson/ Gomis

    Yaya to Silva next week.

    Thanks

    Odd that Sturridge dropped in price last night. Why would anyone keep him all this time and then sell the week he is back in full training? 😕

    1. Dreaming of Irene
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Does his flag changing from red to yellow the day before lower his transfer threshold for a price drop so potentially trigger the drop?

      1. Pasqualinho
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Good spot - I think this must be the case as his ownership actually went up yesterday.

        1. Dreaming of Irene
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Never can quite get my head around price protection and locking - when a flag is applied or cleared (I can never remember which) there is a short period of locking, but not sure if anything similar happens for a flags severity being increased or decreased, or if the change in trigger threshold happens straight away.

          1. Pasqualinho
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            It changes every year, so it's good to keep an eye out. But you seem to have a better grasp of it than most.

    2. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years

      Do not try to understand the price change system. Just accept it.

    Someone from my ML with 4 red carded in a row:
    GW1 - Courtois
    GW2 - Adrian
    GW3 - JT
    GW4 - Afellay
    Is there anyone can beat him?

    1. Emp
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      he deserves it for either having dbl chelsea defence from the beginning or dropping courtois and putting jt in 😛

      1. sleecc
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        But 4 in a row is miracle 😛

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I've seen Courtois -> Adrian but that is incredible.

      1. sleecc
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Adrian was his backup keeper.

    2. The Man Pastore
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I have seen Courtois Adrian Jenko

      1. sleecc
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        A hat trick! But still 1 short of him 😛
