The ScoutCast – Episode 188 – Braced

Strap yourself in for another bumper, Wildcard-powered ScoutCast. On the cusp of double Gameweeks, with multiple chips on standby, we’re braced for the big turning point in our seasons.

The expectation and excitement is palpable as Jonty and Andy drop in to review Gameweek 32, before feasting on a smorgasbord of questions served up by you, the community.

We tackle the Leicester/Spurs exit plans, consider Sanchez vs Ozil, contemplate selling the imperious Payet and run the rule over double Gameweek strikers. We pack that and more into 75-minutes, reserving energies for further double Gameweek casts to come.

This episode was first aired live on our YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe to get news of future live casts.

You can view the full version via the second player below, or drown in the sound of the edited audio version via this link or the first player.

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

    Any major restructuring needed?

    I was convinced I would keep Mahrez, Kane and maybe a Leicester defender on my wildcard but it seems like a waste to play Bench Boost when I "only" have 2 DGW + Simpson and Mahrez playing v West Ham

      I'm not convinced he'll do too much in GW33&34 though as he's against decent central defenders.
