Better late than never, the second ScoutCast of the season is with us.

Recorded earlier in the week and available on our YouTube channel since Tuesday, you can now grab the audio goodness via iTunes or the players below.

After painfully average Gameweek 1’s all round, Granville Jonty, Andy and myself throw out the “marathon not a sprint” clichés before taking on another bumper collection of community questions.

We contemplate Harry Kane’s fading star, bow before the alter of Zlatan and attempt to untangle the great Liverpool midfield puzzle.

Jonty gives Goals Imminent stats an inevitable airing as we preview Gameweek 2, as I stumble over the finish line, delirious with man-flu and paracetamol.

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.

    Defoe (c)

  8. Kroosin'
    • 9 Years

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

  11. O Fenomeno
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I've got the armband on Firminio. Bad move considering I have Aguero, Ibra and Hazard too?

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Insane or genius. Only time will tell.

    2. BobbyV
      • 12 Years

      Ballzy! But hey, they say fortune favours the brave. Good luck

    3. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yes

    4. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Who knows. Obviously Kun is the favourite.

      1. O Fenomeno
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Ibra is actually the shortes price to score, slightly... 8/11. Aguero 4/5

    5. Tabasco
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I have all 4 and went with Aguero

    6. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Have all 4 and going Kun here.
      But good if risky pick.

    7. il Brutto
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I'm going Firmino as well over Aguero, Kane, Sanchez and Hazard.

      1. O Fenomeno
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        *High five*

  12. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    So FFF keeps notifying me that Tadic is on course to drop tonight.

    What on earth is going on!

    1. Guy Demel
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Many active casuals with an autocomplete team ditching as he blanked

    2. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Tadic is on course to drop tonight, that's what's going on.

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      He didn't score and has a tough fixture. Simples.

    4. Crabwalk
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Redmond wagon.

    5. The Polymath
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Good - Cheaper when I buy him.

    6. Kroosin'
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Actually he is. I am keeping him even if it happens.
      But let's hope he gets at least an assist tonight.

    7. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

  13. Guy Demel
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

  18. Sol Campbell
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    How comes people aren't looking to Captain Mahrez/Vardy - at home to Arsenal based on what we saw the other day would suggest this is going to be a high scoring game.....

    1. Ayew Holding Mee Cork
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I saw some folks here want to get rid of Mahrez. Don't understand at all.

    2. il Brutto
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Arsenal is going to win that one quite easily I suspect.

  19. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    No preamble today? Unless Marks posted it on the FPL Twitter already

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

    3. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      This community is falling apart all our research is being spoon fed to the people on Twitter. I had one of my mates text me and say, "Not captaining Kane this week because that Twitter page proves he needs Dembele".

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
