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.

    Manchester United buy all these players this summer, have Herrera, Schwensteiger, Schneiderlin and even Carrick in their squad, and Marouane Fellaini still gets starts.

    It is so amazing that it's funny.

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

      Carrick not on the bench. The bench is overflowing.

    2. Mortal.Swinbat
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I agree, baffling, but then who am I to argue with Mourinho to be fair! He does like a tall physical player for set peices

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

      He was actually really good GW1.

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

        Different player under United.

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

          Do you mean under Mourinho?

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

            Yus.

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

        Save your breath. His name is Fellaini so he must be bad!

  2. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    While waiting for game to start. Fix your team links everyone 🙂

    1. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Seconded, FPL stalking is much harder this season

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

      mine's a secret

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        You can keep it as a secret but there is quite a few ffs users whos team I would like to see 🙂

  3. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Interested to see how Pogba effects the threat of the four in front of him

    Whether he will hog shots or create more, etc, etc.

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

      Yep, this is probably most important information we'll get out of tonights game. Frustrating not seeing mkhi in the team though, feels like we're not getting the whole picture.

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

      I think we will have to wait a few gameweeks to completely understand that. It's his first start. I guess he won't be very adventurous going forward.

  4. Weeb Kakashi
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Team for a Cash league starting from today

    Valdes
    Walker Amat Baines
    Haz(C) Payet Eriksen Redmond
    Kun Costa Llorente

    Jaku. Mcauley Fletcher Souare

    Did this go any wrong??

  5. The Rock
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Could anyone tell me what happened Kone? Had my team set this morning but now seeing he's Injured?

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

      Everton or Sunderland?

      1. The Rock
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Sunderland.

    2. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Says he has a bad back. Off to Everton I'd wager

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

      Bad back. He also rejected a new contract from Sunderland.

      1. The Rock
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers lads. Let's hope mcauley can do me a favor from bench:)

  6. S.Kuqi
    • 13 Years

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years

        Hah 😀

    2. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      No, that's just his lookalike Jarvis Cocker.

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

      What do you mean free WC!?

    2. Sheeeit
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Pardon?

    3. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      It's great fair play to fpl .

  11. legendaryjordan
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I absolutely bottled it and changed back to Aguero at 6.59pm 🙁 Why don't I just continue with my conviction?

  12. Jay_
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Biggest anticlimax tonight will be 1-1 with Pogba unassisted goal and the other one you don't own out of Tadic/Redmond scoring.

    • Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      When did Souare get flagged?

      FFS.....

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

        Kane too of all people

    • Lingardium Leviosa.
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Now to select my team for GW 3

    • Oooof
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Gone with Ibra instead of Aguero as capitano tonight.

      Anyone else?

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

        Here

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

        Yep

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

          Pretty nervous. Big performance needed.

      4. Rolls-Royce
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Yup

      5. Oooof
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Get set for glory, fellas!

    • Garlana
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Prediction for tonight's game?
      Mine:
      *Ft result 0-0,
      *boring cagey match...
      *Valencia max bonus points...(wishful thinking on the last point)

      1. Oooof
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Utd 2-1 Soton

        Ibra with a goal and an assist

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

          Ibra captained I take it!? 🙂

          1. ViewsFromThePo6ba
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            As big as a differential as can be. Haven't seen anyone captain Ibra.

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

            Yep, funny how these forecasts work!

            Got player - think positive!

      2. Siva Mohan
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        1-0 Saints
        Redmond assist.. Fonte goal

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

          Ooh out there, I like it

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

        1-2 saints
        Redmond brace, rooney goal with valencia assist.

        1. juggos
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Sounds a bit unrealistic. Redmond is scoring a hatty and tony V scoring not assisting.

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

          If Redmond gets a brace I wouldn't give a shiz about losing my Valencia cs

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

      That was nice FPL.

    • Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Mark can do anything!

      1. Lingardium Leviosa.
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        But can he yodle?

    • FPL Footy Show Pod
      • 9 Years

      Zaha sub for VVD.... Thoughts? Last minute decisions!!!

    • milanista10
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Last minute transfer of Gray to Carroll ... Let's hope for the best!

    • Reedy
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      See they can get it done quick when they want. They're all off to the pub now

      2. The Road to Turfdom
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I always got the impression the long wait was a choice they made to build suspense.

    • Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Really miss the long updates, was the best part of the game.

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

        We all know Jafooli.

        1. Jafooli
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

    • Sadio

        Hide the TV itself i'd say..
        RedCard incoming.

    • TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      United have 4 players over 6'1 in height in the 11.

      1. El-Kloppico
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        They can get transferred to NBA soon then

      1. Lateriser 12

            9 years, 7 months ago

            Oi dont you start. Any more of your Ibra love in and you are getting it haha 🙂

              • 14 Years
              9 years, 7 months ago

              Like its a crime to idolize a player 😀

              I'm in love son. Good luck for the GW lad.

              1. Worzel Gummidge
                  9 years, 7 months ago

                  I have a slightly used Giroud poster.

                • Worzel Gummidge
                    9 years, 7 months ago

                    Good luck too.

              9 years, 7 months ago

              I'm going to give him credit and say it was intentional.

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

            Ive always wondered, who'd win in a fight between chuck norris and ibra?

            1. El-Kloppico
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 7 months ago

              VanDamme

          • Hybrid.power
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Oh crap! For the first time ever, I forgot to hit save on my captain! I had switched to Ibrahimovic earlier, then went back to Aguero for the deadline. Never saved it. I guess I'm cheering extra hard for Ibra!

          • Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            The Mkhitaryan situation is rather baffling, hope he gets a run soon, was really looking forward to seeing him perform begining of the season

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

              Waiting to pick him up for 8.5 😎

                • 14 Years
                9 years, 7 months ago

                That would be nice

            9 years, 7 months ago

            Andy you sly dog, benching Hazard and playing Kone (out).

            I hope Moyes has tricked us all and makes a cameo 😉

            1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
              • 15 Years

              I did the same thing with Friend 😎

              Benchw@nkers are the scourge of FPL

          • FPL Notebook (John)
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            The game actually runs a lot better now. That update was fast, and the points/rank update at the end of the day is much faster too
