Just minutes after the final whistle blew on Gameweek 21, Jonty, Andy and myself braved the airwaves to pick the bones out of our meagre midweek tallies.

Brought back down to earth by a decidedly lacklustre floodlit affair, we rouse ourselves to debate the Aguero armband, the rapidly increasing speed of the Payet bandwagon and the theories behind the stuttering United backline.

We even make our dedication to the departed David Bowie, before quickly ushering out our disappointment of the Gameweek just past by previewing the one that lies ahead.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first broadcast via our YouTube channel on Wednesday evening.

        I currently have neither in my team so..

        Who to get though?

    3. Arteta

      Payet

  2. My name is an echo

    Kane the obvious captain choice this week but I am inclined to go with Mahrez. Away to Villa and the man is due

    1. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Similar thoughts sir.

    2. Prøphet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Those are teh two i am looking at. Might do mahrez since i would rather have him score and keep LEI in the number one spot

      1. My name is an echo
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Its a tough call but ultimately Villa are a LOT worse than Sunderland who can be half decent defensively

  3. Venom Snake

    Would really appreciate some ideas on this lot. Currently contemplating selling Ward for Simpson of even Davies.

    2 FTs and 0.6 ITB.

    Butland
    Bellerin - Ward - Ogbonna
    Silva - Ozil - Payet - Mahrez
    Lukaku - Kane - Aguero

    Hennessey ; Alli - Moreno - Dawson

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      First of all , I wouldn't bench Alli against Sunderland

      Maybe Ward > Targett if that fits into your rotation?

      1. Fishy
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        This

        1. Fishy
          • 17 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          And bench silva

      2. AK ⭐
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Targett isn't going to keep Tadic out of the squad really.

        Simpson maybe instead of Targett?

      3. Venom Snake
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I should have altered my layout. I'm actually playing AoA

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Not sure if Davies is nailed on. Simpson is a good option. Or Daniels if can get him?

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

        I don't think he is nailed, but he's currently keeping Rose out of the team and doing a decent job. 4 playable defenders to cover him, I think he may be worth the punt

    3. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Simpson looks good if you can cover his fixtures from Gw24-26.

  4. Fishy
    • 17 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Do i need to change this for a hit?

      Na, looks okay. Arsenal might not get a cleanie at Stoke though

      1. Fishy
        • 17 Years

        Bench belerin and do wolscheid to fuchs?

          10 years, 6 months ago

          For a hit? Not sure he's definitely getting a cleanie or not. Though, yes, I have brought in Simpson this week, it's still a lottery with those cleanies.

    Howe: "Matt Ritchie is 50/50 at this moment for the weekend, he picked up a dead leg against #whufc."

    Stanislas and Iturbe to start this GW then

  6. super zlatan

    Thoughts?

    Butland
    Kolarov. Toby
    KDB. Ozil. Payet. Mahrez. Alli
    Aguero. Kane. Ighalo

    Subs. Bellerin. Moreno. Ward

  7. Man Chest Hair United

    Is targett going to get some games now or it was just a one off?

  8. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    @ Hazardous

    In last 3 gws Lamela and Alli average position as been more advanced than Kane's position.

    DM with pens if you ask me. Altough Dembele back should change it

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      just saw your reply on last page

    2. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      That's not DM..its a false 9 position like Gru , Rooney and many other strikers...they still score goals...

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Him playing DM is more like joke 😉

        1. Eden Hazardous
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          I don't have La Liga data but just from seeing the matches I think Messi also plays false 9

    3. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Also , when looking at average positions , its good to be further forward but is also important to be central as shots have higher conversion rate from central areas + in wide areas you cross the ball a lot

      Kane is the more central than Alli/Lamela

      1. Prøphet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I replied on last page. Position not really what matters when it comes to Dembele / Kane relationship. Its where he receives the passes to be threatening. He comes way to deep to get a pass now, while with dembele his position is the same i would say but the passes received are in the dangerous areas. Where big difference and a thing to look at.

        1. Eden Hazardous
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          I am not having it....it doesn't matter where he gets his passes...it matters where he shoots from.....Kane has been posting good numbers with/without Dembele

          Also , Kane has played only 3 matches without Dembele in the last 10...3 matches is a very small sample size

          Lastly , it does not matter having this discussion as Dembele will start this GW

          1. AK ⭐
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 6 months ago

            Woah, go easy on your tone there mate.You sound a bit rude. 🙂

            It does matter where he is getting the passes tbh. If he gets them deep, he has to dictate the play from the center, whereas if he got them further forward, one touch and he could take a shot away.

            1. Prøphet
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              10 years, 6 months ago

              Exactly

            2. Eden Hazardous
              • 11 Years
              10 years, 6 months ago

              Sorry but it really gets on my nerves that Kane is being equated to Dembele....

              Correlation does not equal to causation....

              Also , is there any concrete evidence other than watching the games that Kane gets his passes deeper when Dembele is not playing?

              1. Ziro Becomes One

                10 years, 6 months ago

                Seems you have not watched the matches.

                Watching matches >> Stats

                1. Eden Hazardous
                  • 11 Years
                  10 years, 6 months ago

                  I have watched the matches and Kane creats a lot of his chances by his excellent movement which is not dependent on Dembele but rather on Eriksen/Lamela

                  1. Ziro Becomes One
                    • 11 Years
                    10 years, 6 months ago

                    My opinion is that irrespective of Dembele/Alli/Lamela, the way Kane is playing right now is the Rooney-type where he is everywhere from DM to Striker even in a single match.

                    He is still getting decent chances, but for a premium striker, we want him to be receiving 4-5 good chances per match rather than 0 or 1.

                    I am an owner btw, and in spite of Dembele/Alli/Lamela will hold Kane through the nice run in spite of his price drops fwiw

              2. AK ⭐
                • 13 Years
                10 years, 6 months ago

                He does drop deep. Almost where Rooney used to drop while playing behind RvP and Welbeck a lot of times.

                Watching games and determining the positions through your eyes over stats has always been preferred by me and most on here. I agree I am someone who loves stats, but then again, stats could be deceiving. 😉

                  Are we the same person ?

                    • 13 Years
                    10 years, 6 months ago

                    Only if you're 891k overall 😆

                      What if i say that i am ?! 😀

                      1. AK ⭐
                        • 13 Years
                        10 years, 6 months ago

                        Then we need to step up. 😆

                2. Eden Hazardous
                  • 11 Years
                  10 years, 6 months ago

                  He drops deep regardless of Dembele is my point

                  1. Ziro Becomes One
                    • 11 Years
                    10 years, 6 months ago

                    This I agree with. Wasn't the case this much last season where he did use to drop, but not too this frequency as this season.

                    1. Ziro Becomes One
                      • 11 Years
                      10 years, 6 months ago

                      *not to

                      1. Prøphet
                        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                        • 11 Years
                        10 years, 6 months ago

                        No one argues he doesnt drop without dembele. Who said that is wrong, i am saying he doesnt drop as much and the passes he receives are closer to goal most of the times and in more dangerous positions.

              3. Prøphet
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                10 years, 6 months ago

                It can get on your nerves, but doesnt mean you are right. Nor me.
                No one says that Kane = Dembele. The argument is that he is more threatening with him in the team. Simple argument really.

                Watching games is the biggest argument? Really not sure what else would you want? Stats? Well Mignolet is the best GK in 2015 when you look at CS he kept, does it make it true? Stats can be misleading as i said numerous times.

                1. Eden Hazardous
                  • 11 Years
                  10 years, 6 months ago

                  If the sample size was bigger , it would be worth investigating into but 3-4 matches is hardly a sample size

                  1. Prøphet
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 11 Years
                    10 years, 6 months ago

                    Its still 30% of the matches. Not bad if you put it that way. Way bigger than some sample sizes in bigger case studies. Most take less than 5% to establish trends in some areas when it comes to TV shows (insert whatever here) and what not and see how people react.

                    1. Eden Hazardous
                      • 11 Years
                      10 years, 6 months ago

                      Dembele helps in defense > attack tranisitions and I don't get how does it impact Kane's performances...Spurs as a whole play better with Dembele

                      Anyway , you have your opinion , I have mine...lets leave at that

                      1. Prøphet
                        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                        • 11 Years
                        10 years, 6 months ago

                        Not sure if you actually watched the games, but its cool.

                        To each its own

                      2. Eden Hazardous
                        • 11 Years
                        10 years, 6 months ago

                        I think Dembele : Spurs = Cazorla : Arsenal fwiw

                  2. AK ⭐
                    • 13 Years
                    10 years, 6 months ago

                    Thing is Kane's position changes too much with Dembele and without Dembele. It's easy to spot that Kane gets handed the role to drop deep when he is not on field. I thught about it the same way, about sample size in the first game it happened. But then after reading a few fans' takes and watching a couple of games, the evidence is there.

          2. Prøphet
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 6 months ago

            It absolutely matters where he gets the ball honestly. If he gets it deeper means he lays it off or plays it forward to Lamela or Alli for example. We work with what we have. His shots came outside of the box and not as threatening, bar that post he hit.

            Well its a decent enough sample size with the improved Dembele from last season.

            I do believe it affects him and they play more to him and start attacks differently, but to each its own.

  9. EmreCan Hustle
    • 13 Years

    Aguero(c) ahead of Kane too risky?

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Capping Kun is never a risk

      1. Jazz!
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Kinda is

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          No it isn't. Best striker in pl playing for one of the best team in pl isn't a risk imo.

          1. Vincent Adultman
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 6 months ago

            It still carries an inherent risk, no matter how good he is the man isn't guaranteed points every game

    2. Sz21
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Why do you think it is risky?
      Undecided between those 2 for now but edging towards Kun.

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Form mainly.

    3. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Nope. I'm doing the same

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        He could explode at any point. Silva should improve the service he gets.

    4. HammersFan
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Between those 2 or Alli for me, although the Spurs Sunderland game could be tougher than we think

    5. Yome
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Forget about early kick off captain

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks guys. Think I'll stick with Kun(c).

  10. HammersFan
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    I know defoe got some lucky goals, is he a viable 3rd striker? Is he even nailed with Fletcher/Borrini and the new guy they just signed?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Would be madness to drop him right now.

      1. HammersFan
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Worth a shout then or Deeney better at that price range?

    2. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      They can't drop him really. He knows how to score and should be able to keep Borini and Fletcher out.

      Not sure they can drop him when he's scoring so well. I will look at him for Iggy if their respective trends continue.

        Ye thats the move I was planning, will give iggy a chance at Swansea though

      lucky goals ? i don't think so , he made just wonderful runs à la Suarez , joy to watch.

      1. Still Unsure
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I think he means lucky because 2 of them were offside.

    Who is every going for as captain then?
    Cant decide between kane, kdb and ighalo

    1. Sasquatch Slayer
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Kun or Kane

    2. Graceless Goof
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Kane for me. Sunderland has conceded the most goals in the top flight.

    3. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Mahrez

    4. Huddersfield
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Kane or Siggy

  15. IL LUCE
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Myhill
    Kolarov - Alderweireld - Ake
    Ozil - Payet - Mahrez - Arnautovic
    (K)ane - Ighalo - Lukaku

    Butland - Stanislas - Mertesacker - Dann

    Did Ramse -> Payet before last night's price rise and I think I'm good to go. Any oppinions? 🙂

    1. Fishy

      1. IL LUCE
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks, Fishy! I'm thinking Payet might also be a good captain so I'm really looking forward to the Captain Sensible post.

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      No City attack!! Brave.
      Payet is a great captain option.

      1. IL LUCE
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I'm not impressed by neither Kun nor KdB so far but I can quickly go Kane or Lukaku -> Kun when I see him ready. I think CPL will defend for dear life this gw so maybe I get Kun for Kane in two gameweeks when he has sunderland.

  16. Snellejanus
    • 11 Years

    Which player to bench out of these three?

    A) Alli

  19. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years

    Davies at 4.1 worth a punt if I have 4 other defenders who can cover?

    1. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Yes.

      1. Graceless Goof
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Agree

    2. Hasselbaink Forever
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Wow, I had no idea his price was that low!

    3. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Not for me, I used to do this but it only limits options going forward. Davies will get rotated and one of your defenders would go out of form or get rotated and you'll be cursing your backline.

  20. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    I still can't believe I haven't owned any Everton players all season. What's wrong with me? 😆

    1. HammersFan
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      That will change if they get a Dgw though?

  21. AK ⭐
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Play 2 out of the following 5.

    Simpson (avl)
    Alderweireld (SUN)
    Bellerin (stk)
    Moreno (MUN)
    Dawson (sot)

    1. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Aldy and Bellerin

    2. Sasquatch Slayer
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Aldi and Bellerin

    3. Eden Hazardous
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Bellerin + Alder

    4. IL LUCE
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Simpson & Alderweireld

    5. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Woah. I was expecting Simpson's name tbh.

      Why Bellerin though? Stoke away has always been a tough fixture for the big sides.

      1. Sasquatch Slayer
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Arsenal a better defensive unit than Leicester and Bellerin could even sneak in attacking returns

        1. ILOVEBAPS
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Not sure they are a better defensive unit actually. Especially recently!
          Can't remember the last time Bellers got me any attack points either.
          Bugger saved them for the Cup

      2. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        It's 50/50 imo.

        But Bellerin's attacking threat wins it for me.

      3. Eden Hazardous
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        For me personally , Simpson has very low chance of attacking returns and a lower BAPS potential than Bellers

        Ideally , play all 3

        1. AK ⭐
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          I am actually playing AoA this week. Hmm..

    6. Graceless Goof
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Alderweireld and Simpson

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Alderin

    7. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Aldi
      Simpson

    8. Prøphet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Simpson and Alder for me honestly.

  22. Eskimooo
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Play ozil or lukaku !? Really can't pick , bare in mind I have no other coverage from either side ....

    1. Jape
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Same as me. I'm benching Lukaku I think

      1. Eskimooo
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        I'm leaning towards the same

        1. Jape
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Did it on the GW just gone and it paid off. Hope it will again this week.

    2. Yome
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Crazy, I can see Lukaku scoring against his fellow countryman

      1. Yome
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        and his former club of course

  23. Jape
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Iggy (c) who's with me?

    1. Graceless Goof
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Kane for me

      1. Jape
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Good option! I'm either Iggy or Payet.

      2. Jape
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        90% Iggy

        1. Prøphet
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Had him last gw 🙁

  24. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    For some reason I never thought about doubling up on spurs defenders.

    DDG/Nyom ----> Lloris/Aldy worth a FT? Already have Walker.

    1. Graceless Goof
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      A lot of eggs in the same basket though?

      1. Graceless Goof
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Toby has proven to attain points at both ends, thus reducing his clean sheet dependability. Lloris not so much.

        1. Puyol Pants Up
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          Toby has been lucky in getting his assists imo.

          1. AK ⭐
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 6 months ago

            He took 4 shots in midweek though from set pieces. 😉

      2. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Only 2 eggs? Don't alot of people have double Palace?

        1. Graceless Goof
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 6 months ago

          I certainly don't lol. Wouldn't Dier and Toby be a better alternative though, given that the former plays in midfield as well?

          1. Puyol Pants Up
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 6 months ago

            I have Walker who averages more BAP's then all of them and offers some attacking threat (1 goal, 1 assist)

            Dier is pretty poor in the BAP department but does pick up goals. (3 goals, 0 assists)

            1. Graceless Goof
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 6 months ago

              I'd say Toby then. Ultimately your call though!

    2. HammersFan
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Im doing an Azpi/Ivan double up haha with Toby as my 3rd defender

  25. Sasquatch Slayer
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Double up on City (Aguero plus Yaya) or Spurs Attackers (Kane plus Alli) for the week?
    Yaya vs Ali

    1. 1zverGGademN
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Alli

  26. Flynny
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Hi...any views on who to bench out of ighalo and Ozil?

    Has Watford s form dipped now? And will ighalo he a little less prolific?

    Will Ozil struggle at old and windy stoke?...stoke beat all the top teams at home.

    Any views?....really can't decide....Thanks

  27. Eden Hazardous
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    For a draft league , Gabriel to start this GW?

    1. Sasquatch Slayer
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Does the draft league allow subs? If so you can always start him n have a replacement sub him if he starts. I could be wrong but Arsene doesn't tend to bring him in for s cameo if he doesn't start him

      1. Eden Hazardous
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        No , it doesn't allow subs

      2. Arvin-ation
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 6 months ago

        Nah, there's no subs.

    2. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 6 months ago

      Na, don't see it happening.

  28. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 6 months ago

    Anything to improve here?

    Butland Hennessey
    Dawson Dier Moreno Ward Smith

    Or should I save for now?

    0,3 ITB and 1 FT.

  29. Alittude

    DEF - Tragett (WBA) / Janmaat (WHU) / Bellerin (stk) / Kosc (stk) / Moreno (MUN) ......Which 3?
