The ScoutCast – Episode 185 – Wonka

Recorded minutes after the whistle blew on a miserable midweek under lights, we had no choice but to fantasise about Chips and Double Gameweeks to get us through this latest ScoutCast episode.

I’m joined by Jonty, Andy and Luke as we lament our sub 40-point tallies, moving on swiftly to lose ourselves in the thrilling, Wonka-like nonsense that lies ahead thanks to the bizarre Bench Boost FPL chip.

We come back down to earth to answer another bout of community questions, assessing the merits of City’s assets through their fluctuating form, the Payet problem and even end by revealing our modest rank expectations for the rest of the season.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first aired live via our YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe in order to get a heads up on new episodes.

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

    In theory and bar injuries this GW, does this look good enough for a GW30 team with no hits?

    Fabianski
    Williams - Kompany - VVD - Simpson
    Mahrez - Alli - Arnautovic
    Aguero - Kane - Vardy

    Henessey* - Sanchez* - Ozil* - Cresswell*

        A City mid or Siggy, but that would require a hit and Sanchez out.. And think my defenders are prob good enough to outscore those with a -4..

    Chips Ahoy

    Those with all four chips left; Wildcard, All-out-attack, Bench Boost, Triple (c). When are you planning to use them all?

    GW33: Wildcard
    GW34: Bench Boost
    GW37: Triple (c)
    GW38: All-out attack

        I think GW38 is the perfect time to use AOA, unless there is a game-week before then when we don't want to use any of our other chips and all of our front 8 will be playing and the weakest of these 8 is expected to outscore our 3rd best defender.

        VvD Simpson Azpi // Jags Bellers
        Mahrez Sanchez Payet Arnie // Alli
        Kane Kun Vardy
        =========================
        A. Payet out for Siggy right?
        + lets me field 11 gw30 while rolling one
        - Payet eve better than Arnie che

        B. Also ship Bellers for Williams and play him over Simpson?

        With 2FT's to hit my GW 30 XI I'm thinking

        Koscielny -> Otamendi (most nailed city def right?)

        Dann -> Williams
