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.

  1. The Count of Monte Cristo
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Right to play Foster over Jakupovic?

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

      yes

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

    The new FPL Twitter account is the beginning of the end for the FFS Community as we've known it. Bookmark this.

    1. Shifty
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      raised this point yesterday in a post. got shot down 🙂

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

        That's why I said bookmark it. It will take most people a while to see it.

        1. Shifty
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          can already see the future FFS

          Gravless RMT questions, mods answering. That's it.

    2. Disco Pat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Missed that...how so?

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

        It just seems like a combination of FFS Community knowledge and FFS Member stats are being packaged neatly for spoon feeding to FPL Twitter followers. No effort or thought needed by them beyond reading a short tweet (and the attached article if they can be arsed) - and, voila, Ramirez is in their team.

        1. Shifty
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          did you see that Dembele effect tweet? Shocking.

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

            Yep

        2. Disco Pat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          That's bad form...people pay the membership to be given access to the extra stats...Ramirez was to be my transfer for gw 3.in hope of being this season mahrez ...well that's annoying now!!!

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

      It's rubbish isn't it? I will get a membership this season on here/ Fix for the stats, but the sheer volume of FFS-like info is insane on there.

      The one bonus is if you can get on a bandwagon early it should provide earlier price rises and more points hits from other players.

  3. aehii
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Gone vardy captain because late kick off, and I don't know why. I think they'll be goals. I think people are writing Leicester off early.

  4. Bubz
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Pogba is a beast

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

      Yes but Ibra is an animal. A goal scoring one.

  5. Frank Black
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Is Koscielny going to start against Leicester? I imagine yes, right?

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

      Hint from Wenger was yes I think, still not 100% though

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Wenger hadn't decided yet at his press conference.

      I think he'll play him.

    3. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Yes.

    4. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Wenger will be more cautious after the Ramsey injury, but might be forced to start Kosc.

  6. Gazpilicueta
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    which defenders to play?

    fuchs, amat, friend, valencia, dawson

    3 of 5 please

    1. fiveyears
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Amat, Valencia, Dawson. Assuming you haven't got Foster in goal. If you have, then Fuchs over Dawson.

  7. JÆKS ⭐
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

      1. SW6
        • 13 Years

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years

      9 years, 7 months ago

    3. Dr Dream

      9 years, 7 months ago

      Good pick.

    4. Over Midwicket
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Join the club!

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

    Stones or Redmond?

    1. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Always the attacker imo

      1. JogaSemmedo
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Yep he's in atm will stick with him! Last min nerves on this for Friday kick off

  10. Dr Dream

  11. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    pogba bandwagon incoming

    1. AriseSirGiggsy
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      What's the lineup?

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

    I feel like Jamie Redknapp walked in when they were rehearsing and just sat down.

  13. Arvin-ation
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Pick one please:

    Collins or Byram?

  14. Hurricane Gilbert
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Most here seem to predict a United CS tonight - yet you play the likes of Tadic/Redmond. Why not bench them if you have a defender with a decent fixture instead?

    1. Twelve years a slave
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Predictions are usually wrong

    2. Hakuna Juan Mata
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      play your attacker over defenders always imo

    3. ducksfly2gether
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      This. Redmond bench because of my Man U D Double UP

  15. Whats the Huth
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Play Forster or Jaku

    1. Declan
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Forster

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers.

    2. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Jaku

  16. Phil Thompson's Nose
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    So, should I drop any of Valencia, Azpelicueta, Stones, Redmond, Lamela or Carroll for Amat?!!!

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Redmond

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Nope

    3. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Stones possibly.

    4. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Stone. Not Redmond

  17. Ed
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    How good would a saints win be!

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years

    2. ViewsFromThePo6ba
      • 9 Years

    3. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      No. I think Lamela has really improved but I couldn't stick armband on him.

    4. aehii
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I had firmino captain and changed it to vardy. Not sure why.

        • 11 Years

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

      Hmm. Risk Maverick reputation and go with Kun cap, or risk points lead and go with Mahrez.

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Monreal is the best left back in the league. 😉

        1. how now brown cow
          • 11 Years

      3. Mull
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Mahrez is just stupid. Go for someone different to Kun though.

    9. Jay_
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Getting last minutes jitters to play VVD over Stones, don't own any United attacker. Should I just be happy with them all blanking if Saints keep cleanie?
