The ScoutCast – Episode 167 – Stanville

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.

        Aye, thinking the same. United look stronger defensively right now and Lindegaard is obviously cheaper but it's hard to imagine Chelsea won't improve defensively over the next two months.

        Then again, if you've already used your wc then maybe you wouldn't want to transfer in a GK you'll have to transfer out again. If De Gea starts he'll keep his place all season...

      Depends on who you support I guess. Sometimes a manager needs to get sacked.

      Actually your team to lose just so your manager gets sacked would be terribly immoral though.

        I'm slightly concerned about Aguero's pitch time to give him the armband.

            Yep, I'm concerned that Arsenal haven't clicked yet. But on the other hand, Stoke strike me as a team that will rollover after an international break. They have flair players who can turn it on, on their day, but will they be interested in tracking all the Arsenal players?

              I don't think Aguero needs to be wrapped in wool like some make it out to be..13/14 was a long time ago and that was Pelle's fault more than Aguero being 'prone'..aside from a bad knee injury last season, he was fit for much of it
