Inevitably, Zlatan Ibrahimovic stalks Episode 195 of the ScoutCast. Lauding over us like a Eric Cantona wannabe, the big Swede has wasted know time in getting Granville, Jonty, Andy and myself all in a tizzy.

Do you dare go without the Zlatan/Aguero double act? How do you adapt your midfield to accommodate the pricey pair? Will a wolf enter the Scout hut and interrupt the broadcast?

These questions and more are all answered over the course of another 70 minutes, as Jonty serves up our first “Rough with the Smooth” Gameweek tales from the community, before throwing us the best of your questions gathered throughout the week.

In other news, we’re still 100 episodes short of Last of the Summer Wine’s 295. Stick with us guys, we’re nearly almost there. Coincidentally, we also stopped being funny back in episode three.

This episode was first broadcast via YouTube on Tuesday evening. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel to get the heads up on future live episodes.

      Ibrahimovic should be the captain because he is the most popular player.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Goes off the captain poll.

      I am out, though keep it up.. Nice to see %s team.. Some team that is, can easily beat barca or Bayern..

  2. Shearer & Sutton
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    It's likely Kingsley can play this weekend.
    "Neil Taylor will play for u23s v West Ham on Friday to build fitness, so misses Leicester"

    I can save my aoa chip. Evans, Friend, Kingsley. These of three I need one who can play this GW. Hopefully it's Evans.

  3. The Truth Is...
    9 years, 11 months ago

    is holgate nailed?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      no

      1. The Truth Is...
        9 years, 11 months ago

        ive got 5.1m for def who do i get?

        1. Kante Be Bothered
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Stones

          1. The Truth Is...
            9 years, 11 months ago

            lack of goals maybe a worry for points

            1. Kante Be Bothered
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 11 months ago

              Thats true, but for a 5.0 defender you cant get much better

        2. Carlton_Goal
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Williams/Van Aanholt

    2. Joyce1998
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      only untill coleman is back

  4. Tiamani Warrior
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Fell alseep during last boro game. Is negredo looking like a real FPL player or just lucky to be in the points so far?

  5. yuz
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    should i change firmino to barkley....??

    1. The Truth Is...
      9 years, 11 months ago

      only because of recent fixtures but i think firmino will get more points in the season

      1. The Truth Is...
        9 years, 11 months ago

        i mean upcoming fixtures

    2. Joyce1998
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      just updated my WC team for this week. so far in my team I have:

      De hea
      stones, mcauley, holgate (short term)
      hazard, mane, lamela, redmond
      ibra, aquero (captain), negredo

      subs- jaku, capoue, friend, amat

      good to go? or any other suggestions. Much Appreciated

  6. sean 2099
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    I haven't got zlatan and at the moment I think I can do without, you only need one captain a week, at the moment I've got aguero with payet for the odd week aguero has a tough fixture.

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Payet: injured, plays for a poor West Ham side

      Ibra: 50%+ ownership, will score lots and lots of goals

    2. Hubert
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Flawed logic old son. This game is about points, and so far Ibra is getting plenty.

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Get Ibra or make sure you have forwards who can keep up with his scoring.

    4. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      This would only make sense if Lamela wasn't performing better than Eriksen, and Redmond wasn't outscoring Tadic, and the 6.5 forwards weren't outperforming all the big hitters outside of Kun and Ibra. As is, it's really easy to have both Kun and Ibra, so you should.

  7. Road to glory...
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    RMT please

    Foster
    Valencia. Azpilicueta. Walker
    Willian. Sterling. Barkley. Eriksen
    Costa. Ibrahimovic. Llorente

    Heaton. Dier. Clyne. Kingsley

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      0/10. No Aguero

      1. Kante Be Bothered
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        or Hazard

    2. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Predicted line-ups show one of Janssen or Eriksen will b on the bench. 3 Chelsea players seem a bit much. Llorente tough fixtures now.

  8. El Milagro
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Redmond or Lamela ? or name another 7.4 midfielder, please !

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Tadic? I think he is 7.4

      1. El Milagro
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Thnx

    2. Joyce1998

      fabregas is 7.4 mil and shud be starting

      1. Road to glory...
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Willian

        1. El Milagro
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          I would but i think willian is still injured !

      2. El Milagro
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Thought about Faregas but i think it's a gamble though!

        1. The Truth Is...
          9 years, 11 months ago

          defo tadic

    Help.

    2FT - should I do De Gea to Fostet?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Is the rest of your team perfect?

      1. Jjay
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        No but can't see what to do...

        De Gea, Jak

        Holding, Stones, Amat, McCauly, PVH

        Ox, Lamela, Hazard, Capoue, Mane

        Aguero, Ztlan, Gray

        I was thinking De Gea would free up £ to upgrade mid/def over international break

        1. Arceus
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Ox to Redmond. Preserve the 2 FTs over the International break.

          1. Jjay
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            That's what I'd like to do but short by 0.1

        2. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 17 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          If you think Foster will outscore DDG in the short term then why not.
          Good to have 2 FTs for international break.

  11. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years

    Anyone punting on Benteke this GW? Do you all think he is worth bringing in for Gray?

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Not for a hit

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Free

    2. Arceus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Too early for Benteke as Palace is getting another striker. Gray will start against Chelsea, fate undecided yet until end of this month. Chelsea's defense not that stellar.

  12. sinik
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    A) AOA with Capoue, Valencia, McAuley
    B) 343 with Stones

    today's West Ham result is clouding my thoughts (have injured Friend and Amat to round out 5)

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Expecting another Capoue goal?

      1. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        nah banking on a sweet 2 pointer. maybe he'll get booked even!

    2. Carlton_Goal
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Unless Payet/Lanzini are heavily involved or we manage to pull a new striker out of thin air then we do not look like scoring at all at the moment, so I would back Stones this weekend

      1. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        cheers man, yeah the result today got me thinking twice about that AOA idea I concocted yesterday

    3. Shearer & Sutton
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Play Stones and banking 2 points.

  13. Shah G
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    New thought, may be THEY have set 4.0 as least minimum, no one falls below 4.. Thoughts?..

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      3.9 will happen soon enough.

    2. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      why?

    3. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Never been the case before.

    4. sinik
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      plenty of players will fall below 4..it's routine

  14. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Which 4.5 defender do I go with?

    A. Pieters
    B. Smith
    C. Olsson
    D. Holding

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Probably Olsson from the lot.

    2. Costa Nostra
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Holding. CS incoming this week

    3. Diva
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      To buy or to play?

  15. Jasօn
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Any other Coutinho owners shipping out? If so who is a good replacement for the price?

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Barkley if u don't have him or any other Everton mids already

  16. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Repost, sorry I got bottomed

    I got 2 FT and I don't have a clue:

    Jaku, Heaton

    Shaw, Azpi, Stones, Amat, Friend

    Hazard, Redmond, Firmino, Townsend, Capoue

    Kun, Ibra Gray

    What would u do?

    1. IAmTheWalrus
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Everyone will need to lose Gray soon, you might aswell do so . I don't rate Firmino in FPL either.

    2. Kane Toads
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Looks good. Any cash? If so perhaps upgrade Amat. No real problems there.

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Should have already dumped Firm because of drops. At this point, may as well stick and see what happens.

        I say this because had 2 frees myself and swapped Firm/Vardy for Haz/Negrado

  17. IAmTheWalrus
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    I don't have ibra. I have vardy and martial (who are not up to much)

    Should i stick with Vardy and martial for this week or swap vardy for ibra and martial for a 7.7. midfielder (probably barkley)

    Struggling with this one, please help 🙂

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Go for the transfers imo

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        +1

      2. El Milagro
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        I would save Vardy for next week and swap Martial for Barkley!

        1. Reiko
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Ibra's price and ownership will keep going up regardless he scores in this game or not. No Champions League to worry bout either.

    2. Jjay
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Transfers

    3. Kane Toads
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I agree. Do the transfers

    4. IAmTheWalrus
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      wow, you guys made that so easy 🙂

      Thanks

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        You know, I like the move to get Ibrah, but both Vardy and Martial could do this business this week.

        Vardy I think must go as is just too expensive. Martial could come good though and priced appropriately.

    5. E25
      • 11 Years

      Transfers imo

  18. devils advocate
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    What are people's thoughts on Galloway's move to West Brom?

    Do we think he's straight into the side and nailed?

    Could be a steal at 4.5mil as he's a very attacking full back in a West Brom side that can keep clean sheets.

    Definitely on my watch list for the WC, but keep it between us. 😉

    1. E25
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Didn't even know he'd moved there.
      Would be very keen on a WBA double up (with Foster) if this comes to fruition!

      1. devils advocate
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Yep, played his first game for them midweek in the cup and was very good by all reports.

        Should cement a role on the left for Evans eventually, with Evans then moving to partner McAuley at CB with Olssen moving to the bench.

        I think an Evans/McAuley central partnership would also be much stronger so the knock on effect of Galloway's arrival could be an even stronger Pulis defence and clean sheet potential.

        Watch this space. 😉

        1. E25
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Eyes.
          Peeled.

  19. Joyce1998
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    right so I have used my WC this week and I have nothing in bank, so far my team is:

    De gea
    stones, mcauley, holgate
    mane, hazard, lamela, redmond
    negredo, ibra, aquero(captain)

    subs- jaku, capoue, friend, amat

    good to go? or any other suggestions? Much Appreciated

    1. HellasLEAF
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      good to go

    2. E25
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Looks v solid to me mate. Would like Shaw or Valencia tbh but you can't have it all!

      1. Joyce1998
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        cheers man hahaha too many options to choose from

        1. E25
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Haven't looked at the price numbers if you were to get in Foster for De Gea and change out Mcauley for Shaw/Valencia? Just a thought as I rate their chance of attacking returns EVERY game right now.

          1. Joyce1998
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            yeah thats a good shout, just checked I miss out on shaw by 0.2 and valencia by 0.1 which is too close of a call hahaha. oh well dont mind sticking with dea gea as long as I have a manu player thats at the back and can get clean sheets and maybe bonous points

            1. E25
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 11 months ago

              Fair play. Good luck with team. Can't go wrong with that. As a Lpool fan LOVE the Mane pick.
              Watched every minute he has played for us and really hoping he loses his "inconsistent" label this season.

                To be fair, he actually hasn't been inconsistent.

                Rather he has actually been quite consistent given the past returns he has posted compared to the minutes he has played.

                If anything it has been his minutes that have been inconsistent for various reasons, but his returns have been quite consistent in comparison.

                I hate Liverpool, lol, but I think he is your best signing in quite some time and will become an absolute super star with regular minutes and a nailed down role.

                Can easily be a 200pts+ midfielder this season and beyond.

              BTW our teams are almost identical except I have firmino instead of Mane and Gray instead of Negredo (+ the united defence with foster i mentioned) so hoping you do well haha

    Couts haul, Couts, blank, Couts injured.

    Just glad I didn't fall for it this time.

    Rinse repeat

      Cue Firmino haul, Barkley blank... Please!

      1. Kante Be Bothered

        Firmino wont score against Spurs

        1. E25
          • 11 Years

          Bookmarked and Praying 😉

            Haha if he scores ill dedicate my account to him! 😉

            1. E25

    1FT and 1mil in the bank.
    Too early to do Gray -> Benteke?

    Such a bad fixture for Gray and a great fixture for benteke before a load more...

    1. HellasLEAF
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I still like Gray but I would maybe do it for fixtures only.

    2. IWR
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I'd do it if I had the cash. Would love to do it myself

      1. E25
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Slightly worried about having so much cash in a front three (have aguero and ibra) but rarely take punts and figure this is a pretty good one

    3. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Predicted line-up shows Wickham starting. Not sure Benteke will play full 90 mins.

      1. E25
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Would be fine with 60 mins tbh. Just gutted if he doesn't start.

  22. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    When should I be looking to wc? My team is fine but I want to use it to maximise my chances of points, so during the international break?

    1. HellasLEAF
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I usually hang on until first international break. If my team needs more than -8 to fix that it.

      Then swap out for all price risers. Wait two weeks. Then settle on the squad you want going forward.

      Should make a bit of money this way, but also a good time to do it with transfer window and potential injuries over the break.

      1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Alright sweet thanks. Guess I will use it then. I used it I think GW5 last year and it backfired pretty bad. 2 weeks of price changes could do wonders to my SV for sure.

        1. dgs2
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          I used to previously do mine during the international break to catch the rises and make some $ but over the past 2 seasons movement has been slow as WC transfers apparently don't count to price changes.. so don't expect too much $ over the international break.. If your team is in good shape then no need to WC yet

          1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            That's a good point, I might wait till I really need it!

  23. IWR
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Whispers of Gray getting 5 weeks. Hello international break wildcard for most

    1. E25
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Where you hear that? Makes me want Benteke even more haha

    2. Venom Snake
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Why? If Gray is out its one transfer to Rondon

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years

        Just worthless speculatuion

  24. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Any news on Friend yet?

    1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Nope

      1. Twelve years a slave
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        No news is good news

        1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Possibly, I mean it didn't look a serious injury anyway. If he's out I can't see it being more than a week to be honest.

          1. Twelve years a slave
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            Yep, and it a Two week international break anyway so should be back for GW4

            1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 11 months ago

              Agreed, can't see it causing us problems.

              1. E25
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 11 months ago

                Still could still start right, not guaranteed out?

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I can go ask my Friend if you want? Want do you want to know?

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Friend should be on peoples benches anyway this GW. If desperate for a start here then there are bigger issues..

        1. Postman Ty
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Against West Brom..? Surely there are tougher opponents out there who can at least average a goal per game throughout the whole team.

        2. devils advocate
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          My defense atm is Valencia, Stones, Friend, Evans and Kone. Lol.

          Who gets benched then? 🙂

          1. Arceus
            • 9 Years

            Easy, Kone and Friend

  25. Lecky Legs FC
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Working the graveyard shift so need time to kill who should I choose for captain in GW 3?

    A) Kun
    B) Ibra
    C) Mahrez

    1. dgs2
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Play it safe and go with Kun... if you feeling punty Mahrez is the one

      1. Lecky Legs FC
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Hmm food for thought thanks mate

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Jakupovic. I have a feeling Jakupovic will score a goal.

      P.S. last time i had this feeling... i won the lottery

      1. Lecky Legs FC
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah I'm feeling punty might go with Jakupovic and use my TC chip on him too :3

  26. mranonymous
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Negredo rising tomorrow?

    1. dgs2
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      87% on FPL so very likely to rise at the end of the day

    2. E25
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Less than 11k transfers needed. Over 220k already made....

  27. mranonymous
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Giroud v Lukaku?

    1. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Lukaku

    2. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Sadly no budget to accommodate either. But personally would pick Giroud. Not sure how much returns Lukaku will produce under Koeman.

      1. dgs2
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Arsenal rumored to be getting a new striker.. Could see Giroud's gametime at risk.. with Lukaku unless he gets injured he should play every game and is likely on Pks

  28. Beautiful Game
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    I have Valencia, Stones whom I will surely start.

    My other Defs are Evans, Friend and Amat(against Lei and I don't want to play him).

    Is there any news on Evans and Friend or should I play the AOA?

    1. Beautiful Game
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Btw my fifth mid is Capoue..

      1. dgs2
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        with Capoue as a 5th mid, better to save AOA for later in the season as he is most likely going to get 2 points this week

  29. mranonymous
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    I think Pogba could be a better fantasy than many think... He really is a box to box midfielder & if Frankie Lampard or Yaya have proven anything... It's that these type players can still be gold

    1. Reiko
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Lampard, Gerrard & Toure were on Free Kicks & Pens if I m not mistaken.

      1. Unliklinho
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Gerrard and Lampard definitely, and Yaya was certainly on free kicks. Fatty used to warm the cockles of your heart, popping up in the last five minutes with a cheeky pen 🙂

        1. Reiko
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Which means though Pogba will return points but not match the output of these players in their prime as he will be losing out on points from FKs & Pens.

  30. Carlton_Goal
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Anyone better than Sterling for 8.0 or under? Already have Tadic and

    1. Carlton_Goal
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      *Tadic and Barkley

      1. dgs2
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Cazorla, Townsend, Lamela could match Sterling.. Sterling is on a mini sort of form atm though

        1. HellasLEAF
          • 17 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          imo take Sterling. with those two assists he is nicely under the radar as well.

          Nolito got two goals for basically doing nothing but being around the net. could have been any city mid and Sterling has been very advanced.

          Feel a goal and assist coming myself.

          1. Carlton_Goal
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            Yeah I think I might take your advice, not quite buying into the Lamela hype yet, will watch closely how the two compare over the next few weeks though

        2. Carlton_Goal
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Don't particularly rate Townsend, like Cazorla but unsure about playing time. Lamela could be an option

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Lamela
