Granville was expected to miss this week’s Scoutcast. Flagged as a 25% doubt, we drafted in Andy off the bench in preparation for our resident Mancunian to go AWOL as he wallowed in the misery of his 30-point Gameweek.

To his great credit, he proved us wrong.

Granville crashes in from the off to join Andy, Jonty and myself in another episode that he describes as “cathartic experience”, as he rolls out the full directors cut of his woeful tale from Gameweek 15.

Spouting such gems as “someone has to be unlucky and it has to be me”, Granville adds an essential ingredient to a packed and lively session.

It’s helped along by Jonty’s endorsement of “playing the percentages”, roughly translated as the “Dullard’s methodology 101”, which has the four of us at loggerheads.

Once the dust settles on that debate, we tackle further questions from the community, featuring Jonty’s latest love letter to Aaron Ramsey, before rounding off with our preview of Gameweek 16.

This episode of the Scoutcast was first aired live via our YouTube channel. To view that full broadcast you can click on the player below.

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

    Coutinho De Bruyne Mahrez Ozil (Barkley)

    Vardy Kane Lukaku

    Transfer out Oxford for Wollschied or Zouma or Dann? (FT)

    Then worth playing bench boost?

    Otherwise have to bench Barkley Or Vardy!

    Captain KDB or Kane or Lukaku?

    Thank you Everyone!

          Very good squad. I'd save the bench boost for a double gameweek though.

          I like the Oxford > Wollschied move. Don't be afraid to bench Vardy this week btw. Kane seems the obvious captain choice 😉

          1. RicardoAVFC
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Thanks Twisted. You gone Kane? 😉

              • 16 Years
              10 years, 3 months ago

              Probably should, but nah, I haven't. Am planning Cabaye > Sterling and maybe Mané > Alli so I bring in Aguero for Vardy next week. All still up in the air though!

      advice: do your spacing better so that it doesn't all look the same

      Wouldn't get Zouma, maybe just save your FT.

      Save your bench boost.

      Captaincy pick is tight, can't help there.

  3. Jazz!

    Chances of WBA shutting out Pool higher than Palace shutting out Saints?

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Palace 3-3

    2. yemzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      yes imo

    3. Monkey Hanger
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      WBA 5/1, Palace about 2/1. Thats PP.

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

      Similar I reckon

    5. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Thanks guys

    6. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      A start Ward or start Dawson question?
      Currently I'm starting Ward and Coutinho, not Dawson

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Dann or Evans* And not exactly starting; just bench order. Thanks though 🙂

  4. Lazarus Star
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Just did Mane to Silva for my FT and now left myself a benching nightmare.

    Ozil, Mahrez, Barkley, Silva, Coutinho
    Vardy, Lukaku, Kane

    Between Barkley & Vardy at the moment

    (got away with a Mahrez benching last week, didn't the first time, not gonna risk it again)

    1. squ1rrel
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Coutinho. WBA shut em' out, I'm guessing.

    2. che
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      I'm gonna have the same except Bolasie instead of Coutinho.
      I'm on Vardy just below Barkley ATM. Think Jose will park the bus like he did at Spurs

  5. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    is jenkinson nailed on? need a def upto 5m who i can start every game for a few gw's...cant think of anyone else and whm have decent fix

    1. Delusional
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Well his form has been a bit rubbish and he finally got dropped last game with Tomkins playing RB. However now that Reid is out for a few weeks I'd say Tomkins moves to CB and Jenko gets a reprieve.

      1. UnitednationsXI
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        thanks..epect them to be tight at the back?

        1. Delusional
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          no!

  6. squ1rrel
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Repost, want more opinions on my AOA
    Note that Smalling, Simpson, and Ryan Bennett are subs.

    Cech

    Alderweireld | Kolarov

    Ozil | Ramsey | Mahrez | Barkley | De Bruyne

    Lukaku(v) | Ighalo(c) | Vardy

    1. djenzio
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      benching Smalling is pretty crazy

      1. squ1rrel
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        but how's the rest?

      2. Sjaugen
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Smalling is flagged atm. AoA works if he is out

    2. che
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Brave captaining Ighalo against Big Sams bus. We've only conceded a daft penalty at home since he came

  7. Reddonkeyham 42
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Pretty template team but got 4.5 in the bank thinking Kane for Ighalo. Purely on upcoming fixtures. Did think De Gea in for Begovic, but with Uniteds injuries and the fact I wouldn't be able to do the Ighalo and Kane change without taking hits, so may hold of on that for now. What else you think? I guess the Silva/Ramsey move will be popular but I hoping to wait until after the 2 teams meeting up before doubling up on either teams attacking players again.

    Butland
    Kolarov Moreno Alderweild
    Coutinho KDB Mahrez Ozil
    Lukaku Vardy Ighalo

    Begovic Barkley Cresswell Evans

    Cheers again!!!

    48 (-6) for me, don't think that's a good score.

    4. Syd.
      • 16 Years

      Don't tell me there is a EL fantasy game

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        There's even a Fantasy European Qualifiers game.

      2. The Light Knight
        • 14 Years

        *covers Syd's ears*

      3. Konig Luther
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        why we wouldn't have one?

      4. Lyonnais
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Of course there's one 😀

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          I once did the fantasy World Cup but lost interest after a few games. PL is enough for me

          Ofcourse no 😉 i dont play it

            • 13 Years

            You should play it, it's great fun 😀

  9. Jazz!
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Sorry for the excessive questions but in a bit of a dilemma here.

    In what order would you bench Dann, Ayew and Evans?

    1. yemzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Ayew, Dann, Evans. Dann ahead of evans because of goal threat

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Thank you 🙂

    2. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      This would involve me having to look at fixtures

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        *sighs*

  10. Champione
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Any others ready to do Aguero/Sturridge > Giroud after tomorrows pressers?

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Studge > Lukaku here

      1. Champione
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        With his ownership, he is a must have imo

      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Aguero > Martial/Giroud for a hit

      1. Champione
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Martial is a nice gamble. Willing to take the risk?

          • 10 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Yes, I need to catch up.

          1. Champione
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Nice fixture and nailed as striker, so I would say it's a good choice

    2. Helia
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Think its worth transferring aguero out?

      1. Champione
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Defends whether you have a good 5th mid or not

  11. DannyBoy....
    • 11 Years

    Chances of Son starting this weekend?

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Low

    2. squ1rrel
      • 11 Years

      Dunno...Lamela is on...

  12. Gazpilicueta
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Hey, is anyone around to share their thoughts on my team?

    DDG, Myhill

    Bellerin, Bertrand, Kolarov, Nyom, Francis

    Mahrez, Ozil, Deolefeu, KDB Wanyama

    Vardy, Kane Lukaku

    £3.5 in the bank, and 2 Free transfers. Im thinking maybe Deo to Ramsey?

    2. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Deu > Rambo and you're sorted. Keep the other one and play Myhill over DDG 🙂

    3. Jose's Magic Omelette
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Deulofeu to Ramsey sounds good to me.

      Wanyama to Arnautovic also worth considering I think.

    Who would it be?

      Gosling if Pugh is fit.

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        What's Pugh got to do with Gosling, may I ask?

        1. ☆Khaz
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Looks like Gosling plays defensive mid when Pugh is out. Last match he only got 1 goal attempt or something like that.

          1. Jazz!
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Ah, thanks mate

            Looking at the player profiles, though, it seems I probably got things wrong. So never mind my comment.

              • 11 Years

              Oh lol. Thanks anyway

                • 10 Years
                10 years, 3 months ago

                But for some reason, Gosling played very defensive last match. Would be nice to know why, cause it's having a huge effect on his goal threat.

  17. GAMBIT
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    So I've decided on my transfer... Nothing pressing to do so its going to be Westwood > Alli as my fifth mid. He doesn't have anymore Europa league nonsense until I get my wildcard back and will be handy in the Christmas period when players might unexpectedly miss games

    1. Latchmere Wave Machine
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      That's a waste, 2ft more valuable than a 5th mid

        • 11 Years

    2. Jazz!
      • 11 Years

      There's no point owning Vardy if you don't play him in this prime fixture.

            When Costa wasn't on the pitch and Fabregas was chasing shadows yes, Jose won't make that mistake again.

    3. Jose's Magic Omelette

      Mahrez.

      1. FPL Daniel

        Dont own him actually

        Law of averages says another one is just around the corner no?

        1. Scratch
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Law of averages would suggest he should have blanked a few times since GW2.

          Never bench a player in red hot form

  23. Fernando Torres
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Tough decision

    A) Cout
    B) Silva

    1. Drip Doctor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Easy answer.

      Silva.

    2. InSaneMan-e
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Depends on the rest...
      If you have KDB, then Cout i think.

      1. Drip Doctor
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Having KDB shouldn't influence the decision at all.

        1. InSaneMan-e
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Of course it should
          Having KDB means you have City coverage...

          1. Drip Doctor
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            So?

          2. Jazz!
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Each player should be judged on their individual quality as a pick. Each pick should be judged individually; forget coverage. Just Silva v Coutinho; and my vote goes to Silva.

    3. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      David

    4. Mr. Funny Name
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      If you already have Kdb go for coutinho

    5. dennis the menace
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      that's not tough...

    6. Champione
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Coutinho for me. Only attacking Liverpool cover you need

  24. Evasivo
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Another great scoutcast, though very surprised there wasn't more talk of Ighalo?! He was my 20pt captaincy last gw and think he's a top option this week.
    Lots of discussion over top 3 of Vardy Lukaku Kane but it should be Vardy Lukaku Ighalo.

    1. che
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Not with those fixtures. Big Sams bus will derail that bandwagon

      1. Evasivo
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Naaa not convinced myself. Sam openly said he'd Park the bus at Emirates and Gooners put 3 past them. With Ighalo and Deeney on fire, I see them continuing that run against a poor team bottom of the league

        1. che
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Bit of a difference playing Arsenal away to Watford at home. Plus no Catts last week so had to play 3-4-3. Back to 3-5-2 this week. One dodgy penalty conceded in 3 home games since big Sam came. That's without his next 4 fixtures to consider.

    2. leedsfc08
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      I Have vardy lukaku ighalo but with fixtures the way they are I'll probably bring in Kane for Ighalo next week (with Sanchez and Aguero out with injuries money isnt really an object, have something like 8 ITB at the moment)

  25. squ1rrel
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    When deciding who to captain between Lukaku and Kane, flip a coin. Heads is Kane, tails is Lukaku. Understand?

      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Or simply captain Kane who plays for a better team, at home, against a worse defence and also plays at 3pm.

      1. squ1rrel
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        3pm in England is 10am here where I live.

          • 10 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          What I mean is that Everton play at 12:45, when there are usually less goals.

      2. Evasivo
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        With one shot on goal over the last 2 gameweeks?! Are you sure 😮

          • 10 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          Yes, he played against 2 teams that literally parked the bus. Chelsea and WBA are the best in the league in parking the bus and not allowing many touches in the box.

          And I don't even own Kane, but I would love to have him for this particular game.

          1. Evasivo
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 3 months ago

            Not convinced I'm afraid but no problem having him though would not captain

      3. InSaneMan-e
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Out of curiosity, what does the 3 pm have to do with it?
        Are they usually more exciting?

          • 10 Years
          10 years, 3 months ago

          See above.

    1. yemzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Lukaku. Better form

  26. dennis the menace
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    So Kun and Kompany owner. Hanging for Citeh's presser? Whens it due. .. And if you put that into Aust AEST I will love you forever

      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      When was the last time you did any changes in your team? Kompany has been out for ages

      1. dennis the menace
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 3 months ago

        Ive had reasonable cover, so been playing Coleman with his fixtures

    1. VS10_
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      City presser is usually around 1pm UK time so is it like 10 hours ahead for you.

  27. Sweetpea
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Sterling or Bony to start up top for citeh?

    Evening all.

    1. cjw176
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Bony

  28. Rylandersson
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Bench Mahrez or Koné for this gw? Got both Lukaku and Barkley in the team. But against NOR IT might be better with 3 Everton instead of Mahrez against Chelsea.

    1. dennis the menace
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      play Mahrez, bench Kone

    2. Champione
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Not playing Mahrez is always a huge risk. He has punished gamblers a couple of times. Are you willing to take that risk?

    3. che
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Have you been watching Leicester and Chelsea this season?

      1. Sponge-worthy
        • 13 Years

        Just let them do it.

  29. Jimbo123
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    Willian or a Lamela for a draft league ?

    Both got decent fixtures.

    1. Latchmere Wave Machine
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 3 months ago

      Flip a coin, I like both

  30. dennis the menace
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 3 months ago

    If Kun is out, do I swap to Kane and Capt him for this week with my FT?
    Or save FT and do Coleman, Wanyama >>> Wolly and Ramsey next week for free?

    Butland
    Kompany Moreno Bellerin
    Ozil KDB Mahrez Deulofeu
    Vardy Lukaku Kun

    Elliot, Coleman, Simpson Wanyama.

    1. cjw176
