The ScoutCast – Episode 204 – Flagging

Frustrated by the international hiatus and with Granville tied up in political red tape, Jonty and Andy tag along as we go hunting for our Fantasy Football mojo.

Andy dons his Zlatan mask in celebration of a belated brace, as we talk flags – for far too long – tackling the lively break “Hazard controversy” head on.

Premium strikers, price drop bargains, Christmas shopping and the baby imminent table all earn oxygen, as we desperately attempt to brush away the ring-rust and look ahead to Gameweek 12.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first beamed live on Wednesday via our YouTube channel on Tuesday night. Be sure to subscribe to get notice of future live episodes.

    If the Telegraph are now reporting that Hazard is fit, shouldn't he be unflagged now given that they flagged him based on less reliable sources?

      The biggest sign that he was never injured in the first place was that Chelsea didn't post in on their site. According to Ruth_NZ, a Chelsea fan, they always post injury news.

      That and Martinez actually telling us he wasn't injured. 🙂

    I've been thinking for a long time and I'll make Lukaku captain. With him I have more security at home against Swansea than Aguero in Palace. Hopefully I will regret it. But Lukaku I trust 2-3 goals against Swansea. Who sees it?

      I think sometimes its better to captain someone who may get some points knowing is potentially nailed on, but then its Aguero and I begrudge him scoring because I can never afford him and when I can he blanks.

            TBH, BF's Suarez comment doesn't alleviate the concern. Suarez did it as a regular precaution. As far as we know, this is the first time Coutinho is doing it so it is out of the ordinary.

              Fair enough, but the fact remains that several different sites are all rehashing the photo by some randomer. None of them have a separate source

                The BBC not reporting it says a lot. I think I'm right in saying their policy is to have 2 or maybe even 3 independent sources on a subject before going public.

                Agree with this. We can't start posting different articles and start saying, 'look, they're all reporting it', when the source is exactly the same.

            The sources are definitely questionable but once we have this kind of reaction and all sorts of media are saying the same thing then doubt is created so rightfully Coutinho should have a flag to represent that.. Mark or whoever is in direct charge of flags can't really win here if there wasn't a flag people would be doing there nuts asking why not after the Hazard affair... i think the right thing has been done here.. even if it is all on the back of some chap called Davey on twitter 🙂

              This sums the whole thing up.

              The media are creating doubt (whether from good sources or not) so for consistency he has to be flagged. FPL aren't saying he's out, just that there's some doubt.

                Nice try at defending it but it can't be defended, his haircut doesn't even match up (or he has amazing hair growing powers) he may well be a doubt (that Klopp never mentioned) but any doubt has come from a really ropey source and showing different reports from the same source doesn't make this any less comical.

                  If I'm buying Coutinho these articles put doubts in my mind, end of.

              Agreed. This is what I was arguing earlier. After the Hazard situation they had to flag Coutinho.

                    Seems to be something of an urban legend in China, probably spread by the ones making fakes. Better for business if people believe they're EXACTLY the same as the legit shirts. Might be true occasionally, but normally the fabric's different and the stitching's crappy.
