The ScoutCast – Episode 191 – Penultimate

One more Gameweek. One more ScoutCast. The final whistle has almost blown on a remarkable season but we’re determined to fully exploit the final throws.

I’m joined by Jonty, Andy and Luke as we open a bumper 80-minute show with our dedication to Leicester City’s extraordinary title win. We then quickly shift to take on another raft of community questions as thoughts turn to Gameweek 37’s double fixtures.

We run the rule over the protagonists, assessing West Ham’s assets, Eden Hazard’s renaissance and even make an attempt to find a reason to make a late investment in Norwich City. Then necks are put on the block as we review the weekend fixtures, coming clean on our current double Gameweek transfer and captaincy plans.

The ScoutCast is first aired live on our YouTube channel on Wednesday night. Be sure to subscribe to get a heads up on future broadcasts.

You can view the full Google Hangout version of this episode via the second player below or stream the edited audio from this link or the first player.

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

    Could Aguero+Firmino (out) and Costa+Hazard (in) be an interesting -4?

    Kind of stuck at the back so might need another -4 for Alderwiereld/ Williams replacement, wish I'd dumped Targett earlier, but maybe he will get 1 match with the rotation?

    Should I go for it just do:

    I just can't see how I can buy any Liverpool players now. Surely it will be a rotated team this weekend ready for the Chelsea game midweek - meaning some doubles will only actually play once? Then the last game of the season is a few days before the UL final so surely plenty will be rested there?

      Milner has managed 1 OT over last 2 weeks from memory and I'm bored of it.

    4 point hit on Pelle to Carroll and Fuchs/Rose to Cresswell sound good? Or perhaps just Carroll and no hit?
