The ScoutCast – Episode 176 – Phoenix

Having spent the season clutching to the coattails of both Granville and Jonty, finally, like a magnificent phoenix rising from the flames, I’ve caught and surpassed them both.

In truth, my season is anything but “magnificent” and the recent struggles of my ScoutCast co-hosts, as they plunge to my depths, is the main reason behind the recent mini-league manoeuvrings.

With a level playing field established, the three of us skim through another set of “Rough with the Smooth” Gameweek tales from the community, before bracing ourselves for another batch of topics steered by your good selves.

You have us talking Sanchez exit plans, discussing the “desperate” route back to Hazard and contemplating Christmas rearguards. Plus we’ve a couple of old ScoutCast favourites who, like my season, rise up from the ashes to discover a new lease of life.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first aired via our YouTube channel on Tuesday evening. You can view the full Google Hangout version via the larger player below, or treat yourself to the more cultured audio cut via this link or the smaller player below.

    What's the latest Kun news? Expect him to start?

    1. Zasa
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Nothing yet, wait for pressers later today

    2. Rolls-Royce
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Yes and score five times.

  2. Mayor of Flair

    Go 4-4-2 and drop Pelle

    or 3-4-3 and drop Coleman

    Anyone help me with this?

        Pelle at home v Villa looks promising though and Everton have been shipping goals. I would have though 3-4-3?

    Oh why did Alexis fall? 🙁

      • 10 Years

      Enough people sold him

    1. FALCAO & MOU
      • 9 Years

      I tripped him.

      Taste the sadness Michael!

    3. El-Kloppico
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Rightly so.. injured for the next couple of week and even when he's been playing, very low returns as compared to Ozil. Regret having him for the last 6 GW. Thankfully his injury allowed me to ship him out.

    4. S.Kuqi

      Too many idiots selling him before pressers. Hope we get some bad news for Hazard, Barkley and Coutinho owners

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 11 Years

          Excatly my thoughts about early sellers

          I am another idiot who always make early transfer and cannot stop taking hits 🙁

  4. FALCAO & MOU

    Ozil is next season's iPhone.

      He does that quite often.

    I'm a Chelsea midfielder of proven quality who has three Premier League season over 180 points, including two over 200 points. Given Chelsea's upturn in performance and that my next game is at home to Bournemouth, everyone will want to buy me this week as a Sánchez replacement. Who am I?

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Fabregas?

      1. Eden Hazardous

    8. FALCAO & MOU
      • 9 Years

      Both Fabre and Haz.

      1. Diva
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        The fact it applies to both is the point I'm making in a clowning around devil's advocate kind of way. 🙂

    9. Eden Hazardous
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Coleman and Vidic

    10. Venom Snake

    Captain dilemma!! Who to Captain among the blow;

    A) Lukaku
    B) Kun
    C) Vardy
    D) KDB
    E) Ozil
    F) Willian

    I'm actually on Ozil but will Alexis, Coquelin, Cazorla, Arteta and Kosc out, I don't feel confident on Arsenal. Might just be a boring 0-0 with BigSam parking the bus..

  8. AK ⭐
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    So Alexis to Coutinho?

    Or Hazard...?

    1. Diva
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Or Ramires? Bwahahahahahaha

      1. AK ⭐

        Lucas Leiva though..

        1. Diva
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Ooh, touché.

          Nicky Butt -> Cheick Tiote? (The former has been red flagged for several seasons now, so I think it might finally be time to get rid.)

          1. AK ⭐

    1. The Fantastic Mr Fox
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Baines Ivan

    2. AK ⭐
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Baines and Vidic?

    3. FALCAO & MOU
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      The Ivanovic and The Baines.

    4. Rolls-Royce
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Vidic & Ivan?

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Coleman & Vidic

    5. Zasa

      8 years, 6 months ago

      Coleman & Bale

    6. sleecc
      • 8 Years

      Bale?

      1. sleecc
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        & Coleman.

        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I like the idea but he only played 23 games in his LB season

    7. FALCAO & MOU
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      It's all wrong. Then Vidic and Ferdinand.

    8. Eden Hazardous
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Baines and Vidic

      1. Eden Hazardous
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        and Bale instead of Baines

    9. Diva
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Vidic and Lescott

      1. Rolls-Royce

        8 years, 6 months ago

        Coleman & Lescott

          • 10 Years

          1. Diva
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            I was the first to bring Lescott to the party. 😛

    10. FALCAO & MOU
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      The answer is Coleman and Bale. Right? Don't be all miserly now.

    11. Hy liverpool

          did a google search and found this now

          https://fpldiscovery.files.wordpress.com/2014/05/dreamteams.jpg

          Vidic, Terry, Lescott and Coleman 😀

          1. Rolls-Royce
            • 10 Years

            😯 King Henry.

            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            😮 fair enough FPL have dropped Terry's first two seasons from the player history tab, thanks for correcting me!

          2. Diva
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Ooh, Balders has his ass handed to him.

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Honorably close mentions to

      Ivanovic: 179
      Baines: 178 & 177
      Terry: 177

  9. SirStevieG
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Should i do Rojo > any defender (for -4) or start Joel Ward?

  10. mbrucie
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Bottomed...

    Is KDB worth the extra coin over Silva (when Silva is fit)?

    1. Super Tim Cahill
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      thousands will probably disagree, but I say he is. More goals in him.

      Silva is clearly a better player though of course, which you can see by the results when he is in the team

    2. AK ⭐
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I think at the moment, he is.

  11. Fantasytom
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Thoughts on mane (c)?

    1. The Fantastic Mr Fox
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      reasonable choice. He's in some form

    2. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Owning him is enough, wouldn't captain him

  12. Nickofoz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    So lads:

    A) Rojo -> Zouma (BOU) for a FT

    or

    B) Save, play Moreno (new) and do the move next week

    Cheers

    1. AK ⭐
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Like B more. Saves a transfer and there might be a lesser probability of Moreno getting a cleanie, although he could cover that with attacking returns.

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      A) Chelsea's defence is looking like a great investment again

    2. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      easy B

    3. Zasa
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Easily, easily B, mate.

    4. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      B

    5. Diva
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Play Moreno.

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers all! Much appreciated 🙂

    6. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      You may as well do A, imo. Rojo out for a while and Chelsea defence looking solid again.
      I don't fancy is keeping a CS

  13. The Fantastic Mr Fox
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Balders,

    Is a FIFFSA article gonna come up today?

  14. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    With 6.3 who to replace Rojo with? My other defenders are Bellerin, Kolarov, Target and Wholeshite. Thinking of Zouma first if not Alders.

    1. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Both are good options.

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Darmian

  15. Sepp Blattered
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Liverpool coverage is so frustrating this week against a poor Newcastle side.

    Coutinho will start on the bench I believe.

    Firmino will not get 90 mins.

    Benteke/Sturridge rotation.

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Allen to start or Henderson as Can replacement sepp?

    2. sleecc
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Moreno.

    3. Polo
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Coutinho will start

  16. FALCAO & MOU
    • 9 Years

    More quizzes Balders, I love quizzes.

  17. onetowatch

    Hi all what to do please i have 1 ft

    Myhill McCarthy
    Bellerin Moreno kolorav Francis targett
    Ozil Sanchez mane mahrez KDB
    lukaku vardy deeney

    Shall I:

    A) myhill to ddg
    B) Sanchez to hazard
    C) deeney to ighalo
    D) strengthen defence
    E) strengthen midfield (suggestions)
    F) do nothing

    1. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Sanchez to Gosling

      1. onetowatch
        • 13 Years

        Hey for real??

        1. Venom Snake
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Yes seriously. Your front 8 is already strong you can't bench anyone

          1. onetowatch
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            I think then need to look at defence? That's my weak link. Ddg to myhill worth doing? That was my thought. West brom have some hard games coming up

  18. Eden Hazardous

    Which player this season in the PL has the least min per shot ratio?

      1. Eden Hazardous

        Think of super subs 😛

        1. FALCAO & MOU

          Giroud it is then

          A. 317 minutes between chance on average and has subbed on 5 times this season.
          B. I see why some people were happy when they thought you weren't on anymore a bit earlier.

    Two questions;
    A. Is there any transfer worth making for a hit? (£1.3 itb)
    B. Do I play Schmeichel or Butland?

    Butland
    Kolarov - Moreno - Van Dijk
    Silva - Ozil - Coutinho - Mahrez
    Lukaku - Kun - Vardy

    Schmeichel; Dawson - Westwood - Ogbonna

      Schmeichel since you've (silva/kol/kun)

  20. The Man Pastore
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Am I G2G?

    Butland
    Kolarov Bertrand Moreno
    Tadic Marhez Hazard(C) Coutinho
    Lukaku Aguero Kane

    Bench: Hennessey Dawson Gosling Souare.

      1. The Man Pastore
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks, I am really not sold on the (C) pick yet. It can be either Haz/Kane/Coutinho id confirmed fit.

  21. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Morning dzzz, how we doing?

    Right..already used ft...not happy with team but thinking g about taking hits.,have 0.5m

    begovic henessey
    Cedric moreno Simpson janmaat square
    Mane hazard ozil yaya mahrez
    Kane kaku vardy

    1) start janmaat or Simpson

    2) don't like my Def..so janmaat or souare to 5.4m Def for a hit? The thinking there is that next week I am def using FT in removing begovic and won't have a good def..so over 2gws and longer, the hit might pay off. On a 1 week basis, I don't like taking hits for a def...am thinking of either walker or zouma for janmaat?

    3) who to bench from yaya mahrez...leaning towards yaya but having zero city coverage is scary

    4) I could also do yaya >> coutinho (-4) and then bench mahrez

  22. Eden Hazardous

      and to stop the Matic joke ...

      1. Diva
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I know, sorry. It's all about keep attention away from Ramires really.

        1. Eden Hazardous
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Ramires??!! The Ramires who does not start for Chelsea?

          1. Diva
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Ramires who hits the target more than twice as often as Hazard when he's on the pitch this season. It's not my fault if Jose won't pick him.

        2. Hy liverpool
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          ok

    4. Diva
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I said he was doing well at creating chances for team mates.

      1. Venom Snake
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Chelsea just don't score enough goals for mine, it's why I didn't get Hazard even with those fixtures.

        Without looking at any history or knowing exactly, I'm pretty sure majority of Hazards goals last season came from the penalty spot as well.

        1. Diva
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          4 of 14 came from the penalty spot last year.

          1. Eden Hazardous
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            3...1 was the Palace deflected penalty goal

            1. Venom Snake
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Hmm..

              Chelsea don't score enough bye!!

            2. Diva
              • 9 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              The source I looked at said Hazard took and scored four. Apologies if it was incorrect.

              1. Eden Hazardous
                • 9 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                Well....it is technically correct

                The keeper saved the pen and Hazard scored by deflected shot

  23. OzilFozzil
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Anyone taking "punt" on Coutinho this week?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      How is that a punt?

      1. OzilFozzil
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Injury doubt, and I also used the quotes to express the irony...

        1. La Roja
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Fair enough

          I think he is fit and if confirmed by Klopp then he is my captain

          1. Venom Snake
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            This

          2. OzilFozzil
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            What I like to hear, I have teetering between Ozil and Lukaku but Arsenal are on bare bones and Lukaku is a troll. So ideally I would want to go for Coutinho...

      2. OzilFozzil
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I assume thats a yes

    Morning morning, how's this look for the weekend? FT is gone I'm afraid

    De Gea
    Kolarov - Alderweireld - Moreno
    Mahrez (VC) - Barkley - Coutinho (C) - Silva
    Aguero - Lukaku - Vardy

    Myhill - Bellerin - Alli - Souare

      Very nice.

      1. Diva

        1. Punter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Thanks, rolling the dice a bit with Coutinho and Kun but I feel ok about Bellerin and Alli off the bench just in case

    2. zon
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Very nice. I'd start Bellerin over Toby though.

  25. ronty
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Rojo's injury probably means Darmian starts. Unfortunate for the player but saves me
    from a conundrum.

    Any thoughts on this?

    1. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Couldn't Blind start on the left and Young on the right?

      1. ronty
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Injuries abound at CM as well and one eye on CL..can't see Bastian starting

        1. Venom Snake
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Carrick, Schneiderlen, even Herrera.. He's not nailed and could very easily start on the bench

          1. ronty
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            McNair was pretty poor against Leicester too.. could mean Blind back at CB

            I thought Herrera is injured?

    2. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Darmian is not nailed on

      1. ronty
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        yup..that is what I meant by my first line.. 'probably'

        had no chance of starting if Rojo did not get injured

        1. La Roja
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          It's not related to Rojo injury at all

          LVG is just doesn't like the fella

          1. ronty
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            weird considering he bought him in the first place 😛

  26. Venom Snake
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    I brought Coutinho in for the City game when he got a haul, he was a differential then...

      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I sold him that week, lol at me!

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I sold KDB last week

        I win

        1. Venom Snake
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          You, me, and thousands of others. What a kick in the nuts.

          To be fair though my replacements of Moreno and Ozil did well.. It's the hit for Aguero that hurt the most

        2. sleecc
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I sold KdB & Payet the GW they scored 16pts, I win.

        3. Billy Gilmore
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I sold KDB last week and Sterling before his hattrick.

      2. Venom Snake
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        How could you do that when fixtures were just about to change for the better lol

          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          wait no, sorry, I sold him before the Chelsea game. Same week as Granville.

          1. Venom Snake
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Hmm unlucky. I still would of held out a couple of weeks for that fixture swing but that's the way the game goes.
            Have/will you bring him back?

              • 10 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Maybe, it depends on a lot of moving parts.

    Big decision this week,
    Hazard or Coutinho?

    Coutinho against Newcastle seems a no brainer. But over the course of the month Hazard could be the better option.

    Thoughts?

    Thanks.

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years

      Coutinho

        Bought Kun last week and took a risk on early Coutinho in for Sanchez transfer, 2 profit cashed in. Foolish I know but knew Cout won't be far away form fitness..
