The ScoutCast – Episode 180 – Whistle

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.

            It's what everyone keeps telling me and Doos even posted some stats to back it up, but I never, ever trust Arsenal vs Stoke, it's like Arsenal vs Birmingham, just a weird voodoo around the fixture.

            I'll no doubt get over myself and leave Arnie on the bench 🙂

                See, I'm contradicting myself..

                Ozil has only played 1 or two games AT Stoke if I recall correctly, and he got 2 assists last time he played there (could be wrong but I think so..)

                I see it potentially being something like 2-2. Arsenal are too good at attacking not to score but they're currently too bad at defending to keep Stoke out.. Ozil is more central to his team than Arnie, so that's why I'm on him at the moment, but Arnie is tempting... Wouldn't mind a Lukaku niggle..

    Or take out Soaure for somebody like Daniels or Huth?

    I'm tempted to bring in Baines after this GW.

    If this was YOUR team, what would YOU do?

    2 FTs and 0.6 ITB

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

    Hennessey ; Dawson - Moreno - Ward

              I was going to recommend getting rid of Kane but I knew you wouldn't want to with his fixture this week, so if I were you, I'd do Butland -> Lloris and then next week you can use both transfers to (A) downgrade Kane and (B) upgrade a mid

                  I think Kane is overrated on here (and in fpl due to his inflated price)

                  Most will disagree, I'm definitely a minority.

      Looks good! At a push because you have 2 FT anyway, Butland out? They haven't kept a clean sheet since Boxing Day. You can always get him back out when their fixtures ease up again.

            I have Daniels. I just checked. Daniels has had 10touches in the box over the last 6gameweeks and five attempts.
            Francis had one touch in the box and one attempt in that time span.
            I think it's therefor fair to say that his attacking potential is rather limited 🙂

            You're somewhere between 1-7points max.

            Also Francis had only one CS in the last 6 games.

            I'd bench and lose him.

            Attacking potential is not to be underestimated

      Kun(c) here. If Kane had been more consistent attacking form around the box or even inside it, I would (c) him over Kun due to Sunderland. But his goal-threat does not seem to justify captaining over Kun who has looked good and will have Silva behind and Navas doing the running on the right.(perfect combo for a Kunxplosion)

        Don't differential captain. Sure, pick the one you believe will score the most and all that, but it's "got to" be one of the other 3

    Completely stuck this week, please have a look! 🙂 1 FT & 5.3 ITB

    ____DDG
    Walker Sagna Simpson
    Ozil Mahrez KDB Alli
    Lukaku Giroud Kane (C)

    Henn - Bellerin - Stanislas - Dawson

    GIROUD --> Aguero is a possible, but Giroud in great form!
    I would like Payet but not selling KDB or Ozil, and want to keep STANISLAS as bench fooder.

    So can I save?

      Save for sure, give KDB one last chance. Ozil can't be sold and can't be benched. and Stanislas as a 5th midfielder is always a good choice regarding bench headache. G2G mate.

      I am having myself a problem of whether to bench Yaya or Alli? Can you help regarding that.

      Yeah it's annoying seeing his points on the bench but I just think of it as a good injury replacement, and for the price gains if you end up needing the cash. The one week he's auto-subbed in for me he had scored always good for that.

          Purely down to it being a tough enough fixture and Lukaku (along with everyone else) blanked last week.

          Ir's risky, but I fancy Ighalo to do well this week vs Swansea that conceded 4 to Sunderland..

          I don't own Alli.

            I agree that Everton are a "better" defensive outfit with him in the side, but with Baines, Howard and Coleman all regressing this season, and with Martinez's weird fixation with playing Kone over Besic, they're still nowhere near solid enough for my liking.

            I'd put Jags in the same bracket as Williams, and I personally want neither.

              The problem we have is that there are no good defences this season, or reliable at least.

              City, United, WBA...blah blah blah all have a couple of good games and then turn rubbish. No long term picks whatsoever in reality this time around. Everton have good fixtures and Jagielka carries a very good threat on par with Toby and Dann at times...and he's 5.1.

              Three weeks ago you couldn't give a Leicester defender away other than the "cheap" Simpson...three CS in a row now....shows just how unpredictable defences are.

              Jags is a great pick for the money.

                Fair enough, point well made 🙂

                I agree, there's a dearth of defenders this season, hence why I've just doubled up on Spurs and have 2 from Palace (weirdly). I might end up with Jags as he is a good option at that price, but I don't think he's a spectacular option, just probably better than the others around at the moment.

                Everton could be so much more solid though..

                I'm looking forward to Coquelin coming back for Arsenal! 😀
