He’s gone. Aguero has been shown the door, at least by myself, Jonty and Andy.

But Granville had to be different.

The revitalised ScoutCast shock-jockey simply had to go against the grain and choose to bench the Argentine.

He’s also refusing to play his Wildcard, challenging us to persuade him over the course of this episode.

Do we succeed in tipping him over the edge? You’ll have to listen in and find out.

In doing so, you’ll hear the four of us address a barrage of Wildcard fuelled questions from you, the Community, as we tackle subjects such as the Arsenal midfield conundrum, Payet vs Antonio and survey the options when it comes to cheap enablers.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first beamed live via YouTube on Tuesday evening.

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

    Tadic -> payet -4?

    I'm thinking Tadic is dropping tonight!?

    1. Johnny Drama
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Yes do it

  2. French Gooner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Pick 1
    Currently on Ibra - Negredo - Kun*
    A) Costa
    B) Lukaku

    1. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B unless you don't have hazard

    2. BB-8
      10 years, 1 month ago

      A for me

  3. n-doggg
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Finding it hard to pick the 4th mid slot

    A. Bolasie
    B. Lanzini
    C. Redmond
    D. Antonio (will mean Williams downgraded to a 4.5)

    1. BB-8
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Kitchen Sink
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Lanzini first choice, Redmond second

    3. KGFC
      10 years, 1 month ago

      A in case you dont have cover for EVE else C

    4. COYS Down Under
      10 years, 1 month ago

      It's got to be C for me, A & B are awful and I think Williams + Redmond > Antonio + 4.5

    5. Sid07
      10 years, 1 month ago

      If these r ur options than Redmond
      Thought on snodgrass??

      1. n-doggg
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Snodgrass is coming into focus a bit but just can't see past the fact he plays for Hull. They have been playing above form and will soon revert to mean and I don't except he'll pick up points as much

  4. Sid07
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Been out for a while
    1) what's d update on gray news
    2) Shaw yellow flagged after international withdrawal will he play??

    1. Kitchen Sink
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Should play this weekend but wait for some news after.
      Apparently Shaw should play too

  5. Daddy
    10 years, 1 month ago

    G2G?

    Foster
    Evans Williams Collins
    Ozil Sterling Hazard Mane
    Lukaku Zlatan Benteke

    Pickford - Maloney Amat Love

    1. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good for a non Sanchez team. I'd be worried about no man Utd defensive cover over the long term. And love nailed on?

  6. Cocky Spaniel Alves
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Any resident Gunners around?

    Will Giroud start the next two?

    Not interested in whether people think he's good or not, just if he's starting or not. 🙂

    1. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      He's rubbish

    2. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Arsenal fan here, I think he will. I see Perez starting at right wing or subbing on

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks

    3. Guru Mediation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Giroud is first choice, but may share minutes sooner rather than later

      1. Cocky Spaniel Alves
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Ta!

  7. GE
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Want Liverpool-cover from GW6, but I'm too short for money when I also want Aguero and keep Hazard, Cazorla and Ibra - any suggestions how to obtain the missing money?

    My team:

    Heaton
    Williams/Valencia/Evans
    Haz/Sanchez/Caz/Antonio
    Ibra/Defoe/Zaza

    Bench: Pickford, Amat, Love, Fletcher
    (3,0 itb)

    GW6-plan:
    Defoe/Zaza -> Aguero
    Sanchez -> 8,0 mid (want Liverpool-cover)

  8. DeadStarComing
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Prices aren't going up much and fplstatistics keeps having to recent the percentages. Surely this means there's a lot of wild cards being played?

    1. Guru Mediation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah, it wad fairly accurate before this week so I think that's a fair assumption

  9. KGFC
    10 years, 1 month ago

    I've used my WC and this is my team... But I have 0 itb.. should I downgrade somebody to have some cash in? For Kun return, will probably use 2FTs and take off Ibra - can't afford to have both Kun and Ibra.

    Foster Pick
    Mcauley Collins Baines Amat Valencia
    Sanchez Haz Antonio Firmino Capoue
    Benteke Defoe Ibra

  10. cylus11 ( Manager) - Russia…
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Any price risers today that has happened ?

    1. Captain Vantastic™
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Just Defoe

    2. A.T
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Last article of the day ie this one. Sort by sticky. Same every day.

  11. Weeb Kakashi
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Pick one

    A Defoe Ozil
    (Allows me to Get Zlatan in gw5)

    B Lukaku Ozil
    ( Can get Zlatan for Gw6)

    C Defoe Sanchez
    (Zlatan in for Gw6)

    1. KGFC
      10 years, 1 month ago

      C, not planning on Kun?

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Kun in for Zlatan after he finishes Stoke and Leicester at home!

    2. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      C. I wouldn't do much planning for zlatan. Can't see him sustaining this form

  12. some witty pun
    10 years, 1 month ago

    why does no one like bolasie?

    6.0, big money signing, with great fixtures?

    1. Guru Mediation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Inconsistent, but I'm sure many have him on their watch list

    2. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      History

    3. DeadStarComing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      He just has a poor record. If you can't get Lukaku, Barkley or Mirallas then fair enough.

    4. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed. I like him for a bit of a punt. Sensible head says redmond but may get him in as fixtures are ridiculous

    5. Sharpe Shuffle
      10 years, 1 month ago

      He can't finish

  13. JoJoRed
    10 years, 1 month ago

    a) Redmond to Ozil
    b) Long to Giroud

    Pick one please

    1. Captain Vantastic™
      10 years, 1 month ago

      A. Giroud might not start

  14. Christina.
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Clown.

  15. Lovefootball
    10 years, 1 month ago

    A. Bolasie and Ozil
    B. Barkley and Cazorla

    My only missing piece in my WC, so appreciate any help!

    1. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      A, but would take Redmond over Bolasie

      1. Lovefootball
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks! I had Redmond, but his fixtures scare me. Especially when he can't get a goal or assist at home vs. Sunderland. Cazorla wasn't even in my mind until the scoutcast, but I'm not quite convinced about Bolasie

        1. TokyoRisingSun
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 1 month ago

          I don't think his fixtures are that bad really. After Arsenal you have Swansea and Burnley at home. West ham defence doesn't look watertight and Leicester aren't as defensively sound as last year as well

  16. LewanGOALski
    10 years, 1 month ago

    As I am wildcarding for GW6, which option looks better in your eyes:

    (A)
    GW4: Tadic ➡ Sanchez (-4)
    GW5: Ramirez ➡ 5.6 Midfielder OR Gray ➡ 6.6 Forward

    (B)
    GW4: Tadic ➡ Ozil (-4)
    GW5: Ramirez ➡ 7.0 Midfielder OR Gray ➡ 8.0 Forward

    (C)
    GW4: no hit for Sanchez / Ozil
    GW5: Ramirez ➡ Sterling / Nolito OR Gray ➡ Vardy / Lukaku

    ??

    1. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Hmm tricky. Most will say go for Sanchez. Personally I would try to avoid the hit, depending on how strong your team looks overall

    2. kenzo.
      10 years, 1 month ago

      A

  17. kenzo.
    10 years, 1 month ago

    WC active

    Zaza/Lamela OR Benteke/Lanzini

    1. BB-8
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B for sure

      1. kenzo.
        10 years, 1 month ago

        cheers..... is that cause of Zaza or Lamela?

    2. LewanGOALski
      10 years, 1 month ago

      The latter

      1. kenzo.
        10 years, 1 month ago

        cheers..... is that cause of Zaza or Lamela?

    3. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Really???

    4. Kitchen Sink
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Like Zaza but unsure about Lamela's minutes. I'd be very tempted to go Zaza/Lanzini

      1. kenzo.
        10 years, 1 month ago

        In that case i can afford Zaza/Antonio

  18. ALTOID11
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Captain please as I'm stuck

    Lukaku
    hazard
    Ibra
    Sanchez

    ???

    1. LewanGOALski

      Sanchez out of those

  19. FPL Maldini
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Which to go with?

    A) Zaza + 2m

    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is it safe to have Pickford and Jakupovic?

    1. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      No awful idea

    2. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      No. Sunderland have signed a new keeper so pick at risk

    3. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      No

    4. Johnny Drama
      10 years, 1 month ago

      No

  21. Sauzée
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Josh King as 4th mid? 5.5m. 1% ownership. Hmm.

    1. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Wilshere a risk to him?

    2. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Could be alright

    3. TheTinman
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Could be alright. See how wilshere fits in

  22. Prakatan
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is there any news on Lamela this week? Keep hearing he won't play due to travelling.

    1. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Press conference happened yet?
      Probably 50:50

    2. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Risky because of possible CL rotation

  23. Sauzée
    10 years, 1 month ago

    A) Baines and Terry

    OR

    B) Williams and Azpi

    1. n-doggg

  24. KGFC
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Which is better... planning cover for EVE and CRY games given their fixtures?

    Please help me choose 2...

    1. Puncheon
    2. Teke
    3. Bark
    4. Bolasie
    5. Luk
    6. Baines?

    1. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      2, 5

    2. Johnny Drama
      10 years, 1 month ago

      6 and 2

  25. n-doggg
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Gtg?

    Foster/jak
    Shaw, Williams, collins, pieters, Amat
    Hazard, Sanchez, sterling, redmond, capoue
    Lukaku, ibra, tekkers

    1. BB-8
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Don't like Sterling and Collins. Rest looks good

      1. BB-8
        10 years, 1 month ago

        * Redmond not Sterling

        1. TokyoRisingSun
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Redmond is a pretty good 4th mid IMO

    2. KGFC
      10 years, 1 month ago

      gtg.. nice one!

  26. rdamjan
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Everybody worries about Lamela minutes, but he is their best player this year:S

    Last call, this one is killing me...

    A. Lamela ---> Antonio
    B. Redmond ---> Antonio
    C. none

    1. n-doggg

    1. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      You have two Williams? Not convinced about the Chelsea double up in midfield either

  28. Toubonz
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is Courtois a good pick or should I go for someone cheaper?

    1. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Cheaper

  29. Jacob123
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Why is everyone getting rid of Negredo? Should I leave him in for one more week and trade him out next week? Who should I trade him for?

    1. n-doggg
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Keep unless you are on WC. His stats are pretty bad

      1. Jacob123
        10 years, 1 month ago

        I am playing my wildcard this week. Who should I get instead?

    2. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Got him at 6.5 and rode his price rise all the way until 6.9. Pretty pleased about that but I'm out now

      1. Jacob123
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Who should I get instead of him?

  30. TokyoRisingSun
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Any Rooney fans? My thoughts on him:

    Used to be a Sanchez type player i.e. Explosive and capable of scoring hat tricks

    Now more of an Ozil type player i.e. Consistently ticking along at 5-6 points a game

    Would say he's a good second forward in your team, no? Exception if you already have Ibra
