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.

    First and probably last RMWCT please! 0.1m in the bank.

    Migs Darlow
    Gabriel Sagna Darmian Sakho Simpson
    Sanchez KDB Payet Coutinho Lingard
    Lukaku Kun Martial

    Questions over the defense, but look at that front line!

        That's my worry. I'd honestly feel confident about Darmia, Sakho and Simpson. Slight question mark over Sagna and Gabriel.

            True, but he's only there for DGW34. Then he can stay put on the bench.

    Hi....is it worth including Delaney in my wildcard in gw33......only to remove him for Reid in gw34 in a move that will cost me a hit in gw35?

    Or not worth it....don't have any other palace players...

    Thanks

      Seems a bit daft I'd just keep him and play the bench boost , yous basically be needing Reid to keep a clean sheet in one of his games and they've been poor at the back lately. Get Delaney then get someone better for 35

    KDB - Sanchez - Coutinho - Payet - Lingard
    Aguero - Lukaku - Mitrovic

          Why is it a surprise question haha?

          That's not a nice choice to make. I think if you've bought Coutinho, you have to start him even though Klopp might rest him for EL, especially with Stoke away. As for the others, it's not easy but I'm leaning towards benching Mitrovic and playing Lanzini.

        I think it's good.

        Only 'faults' for me are Delaney (even with two doubles) and Lingard (a risk), but cheap enablers so fair enough!

        Good team! You must have a hight TV. Only worry is Delaney but I guess you can't get many for that price.

        Concerns me you will hardly have any players for GW35
        2 keepers, clyne, delaney, payet, lingard, martial and Lukaku haphavr no game . That's over half your squad!

          Clyne does, so that's 6 players not playing, 4 in the bench, so could field 11 with 2 transfers?

          I'm probably going for same keepers, I think over 33/34 Robles would even compensate a hit over Darlow..

            My mistake on Clyne, sorry. But still 7 with a blank. You'd need -8 to field 11, but if you score really well you may be in a position to do it. Should have also said I really like the team for 33/34, very strong!

        I just pulled the trigger on something similar

        Darlow for Robles (Gives me a keeper for 35)
        Lanzini for Lingard
        Sakho for Clyne

        You have no keepers+ 8 outfield players for Gw35. So u need a -4 for a 11.

        very good plan. Are you buying back Kane for 35 or just play on without him.

        You have also 7 blankets for 35 it means 1 hit to play 11.

        Always the way sadly mate.. it matters little about the amount of teams and options available in a DGW when all is said and done after the thousands of RMTs there is a template.. id say as many as 80 % on here have the same train of thought.. do what the majority is doing.. these guys that use words like consensus lol

        only 1 DGWer for 33.... well you could have more I suppose. ~You have only 4 blankets for 35 so you can easily put one CPL/EVE and change him for 34
