A trio of Josh Kings saved the Gameweek for the ScoutCast regulars, steering Jonty, Andy and myself to respectability, despite a scattering of ill-fated transfer hits. Meanwhile, AZ drops in with his own unique solution to the curtailed Gameweek 28, as he deals a controversial early Wildcard to help prepare for the choppy waters.

The Wildcard is a key focus of this week’s episode, as we extend our recent Hot Topic to the ScoutCast airwaves, arguing the optimum time to activate the most precious of chips.

Elsewhere, we spare a moment to weigh up the “essential” status of the aforementioned Cherries midfielder, consider the recent unrest surrounding Sanchez and Lukaku and discuss the fall-out from Kane’s twanged ankle.

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

    Capoue flagged - wtf. Anyone know why?

    Yes, I still have him.....

    1. Oven Glover
      • 10 Years

      Illness. Check scout tweets

      1. Jafooli

        Ah balls, cheers...

    2. noquarternt

      Haha...hopefully not starting him?

      My best trade of the year was last week.
      Capoue > King

      1. LADY ARWEN'S ARMY
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        mine is snoddy > king ..

  3. Over Midwicket
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Morning all, really in a pickle! Did Kun -> Kane as my early transfer and now I'm kinda screwed..

    Front 8 is:

    Hazard, Mane, Coutinho, Siggy, King
    Lukaku, Banes, Kane*

    0FT, 3.4ITB. Do I take a hit and get rid of Kane? Or play Barnes and hope for a lucky goal, like he did v Pool.

    1. Sahil Yadav
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Barnes to Deeney worth a hit. Deeney has been very good lately

      1. Over Midwicket
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Not sure I can trust Deeney after he burned me early season. Also I like Barnes as a cheap 3rd forward in a 3-5-2.

        If I take a hit it should probably be for a non-starter. Have Ake too.

    2. Oven Glover
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Barnes and trust your mids

      1. Over Midwicket
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Yeah leaning this way. Then ditch Kane and Cout next week for Costa and Sanchez, or something.

    3. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Lesson learnt. No point making early transfers at this time of year. I'm doing mine couple of hours before deadline.

      1. Over Midwicket
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Thanks, mum.

        1. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          My boy, you're welcome.

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Hit for Lukaku

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Oops meant to say Costa

  4. Sahil Yadav
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Doing Barnes to Costa as a FT. Anything worth a hit?
    I am considering Brunt to Valencia or Firmino to Alli/Erik

    Heaton
    Alonso, Baines, Brunt
    Sanchez, Firmino, Barkley, Siggy
    Lukaku, Llorente, Barnes

    Jaku, T.Carroll, Robertson, Friend

    7.3 itb, 1FT

    1. Over Midwicket
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Dat upgrade do!

      Good choice. Don't take a hit.

    2. Kavorka
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      just do the free transfer

  5. SpaceCadet

    1. Christina.
      • 16 Years

      goal fest. King on the score sheet.

      again.

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Hope so. Have daniels, king, siggy and llorente in that game

    2. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Goals galore. 2-2 or more.

    3. Holmes

      0-0

      1. SpaceCadet

        Daniels 9 points!

    4. jia you

      4-4

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        daniels, king, siggy, llorente all braces?

        1. jia you
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Siggy hattie and 4 for King
          Daniels og and missed pen 😉

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Dam maybe I should bench Daniels?

            1. jia you
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              I'm benching Mawson, although I can see him getting another goal for himself in this one. I think defenders from this game probably should be benched...cue nil nil 🙂

              1. SpaceCadet
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 22 days ago

        same as last year! 3-2

    6. zøphar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      1-2 to swansea
      swans will defend better than west ham imo, fonte was atrocious

    7. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      3-3... Siggy goal & 2 assists, Llorent 2x goals. Josh King 2 missed pens and hobbles off injured at half time.

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Only to come back in the second half and get a straight red

    8. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      4-4

  6. The Big Fella
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Do we expect Mane to do well against City this weekend? He is quick and the average age of the City defence is 53. He will be playing away though.....

    1. Over Midwicket
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Pool do great against the top teams, expect 2 or 3 goals from them. Probably scored by Wijnaldum, Can and Klavan though..

      1. noquarternt
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        This

      2. The Big Fella
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        I'd laugh or I'd have to cry as it is true.

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Not well but can get something in that game, expecting a 1-1 kind of game

    3. Abel Xavier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I prefer not to comment on who will do well until after the game. Then I wade in with how obvious it was than Mane would play better with Firmino back in the side/how people didn't learn their lessons after Burnley is beyond me as appropriate

      1. The Big Fella
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Sooooo....... will he do well or not do you think?

        1. Abel Xavier
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Yes he'll score a 57th minute equaliser after a shot from Coutinho is deflected into his path. He drills home first time, right-footed into the roof of the net. Enough for a single bonus point. Hope that helps.

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      City tired after champs lge also... I'd expect the concede at least 2, maybe 3 or 4. So Mane should be good for 5-12 points i'd say.

  7. bombayblues
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Morning! In a bit of a fix regarding my transfers. Got the following front 8

    Sanchez. Siggy. Lanzini. Mane. Carroll
    Aguero. Lukaku. Dio

    Doing Lanzini = Eriksen
    Does it make sense to do Aguero = Costa for a hit?

    Aguero vs Liverpool & Costa vs Stoke?

    What do you guys think?

    1. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Didn't Dio pass away fairly recently?

      1. bombayblues
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Haha XD
        Should have said forward 7. Dio is as good as dead.
        What do you make of the transfers?

        1. noquarternt
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          You can't be picking between Carroll and Dio every week. You need to upgrade one of them. Potentially Dio to Gabbiadini? Other players are fine.

  8. The Big Fella
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Pick 2 of the following to bring in this week for a -4
    A) Walker (for Baines)
    B) Mane (for Lanzini)
    C) Defoe (for Anichebe)
    D) Gabbi (for Llorente)

    I am leaning towards C and A I think but C and B looks OK too.

    1. Football Weekender
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      A & C

    2. Kavorka
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      AC

    3. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Baines is fit. Why transfer him out when he's at home to Hull?

      B & C for me.

    4. The Hindu Monkey

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        I meant c

        my bad

        1. The Big Fella
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          C with which other mate?

  9. We ain't got no histor…
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Current team:
    Pickford Valdes
    Brunt Alonso Mee Stones Love
    Siggy Mane Coutinho Sterling Snoddy
    Gabiaddini Costa Luk

    A. Already used my FT, anything worth a hit?
    B. Planning to take a wc, is it advisable or shall I wait?

    Cheers

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      wildcard week 30 if fixtures have been announced and your team is struggling is very viable tactic

  10. Over Midwicket
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Maybe I can phrase this better... Who scores more?

    A) Costa away to Stoke
    B) Barnes away to Sunderland +4

    1. Kavorka
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Costa

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Barnes

    3. Abel Xavier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      tight but I'd take B

      1. The Big Fella
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        How do you envision this one playing out?

    4. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Barnes could nick a goal...straight away makes it a tough call
      He is great value at 4.5 by the way, perfect enabler for a 3-5-2

    5. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      If you have to get in Costa next week for a hit too then it's just better to get him now I guess.

      Also Chelsea players are probably the best captain option next week.

  11. UnitednationsXI
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Morning dzz, So many decisions...3.9m itb

    Heaton -- Grant
    Valencia Coleman Stones -- Mcauly Robertson
    Mane Barkley Siggy Sterling -- Fletcher
    Kaku Kun Lloriente

    A: Sterling >> Alli/Sanchez/Son
    B: Stones >> B.davies...stones/mcauly have tough fixtures
    C: A&B combined for a hit
    D: Save FT..as sterling has been surprisingly very consistent and playing old team.

  12. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Best option?

    A) Lallana/Coutinho ➡ Alli
    B) Coutinho/Lallana ➡ Sanchez
    C) Both (-4)

    Feel like giving Coutinho a chance against City he's done well against them. But in that case Alli or Sanchez?

    Appreciate your thoughts!

    1. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      C for sure

      1. Karan_G14
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Don't fancy Coutinho against City?

        1. noquarternt
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Just wouldn't take the risk. Got taken off on the hour. He's good etc but we know Sanchez is a machine, West Brom are on holiday and Arsenal normally do well now and close in on fourth. He's got doubles coming up for sure, so it's a set and forget.

          1. Karan_G14
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Can't disagree with that. If Sanchez hauls his price will also shoot up.

  13. noquarternt
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    2 people have trasferred in Takuma Asano. Arsenal's forward who is awaiting a work permit. 6 have transferred him out.

    Who are these people?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Maybe one of them is him & he is buying himself lol

  14. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Are most folks moving to a 3-5-2? If so who up front with Lukaku now that Kane is injured?

    1. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Sticking with 3-4-3. I can't see any reason to shift to 3-5-2 there many options.

      Costa - Lukaku - Defoe/Gabbi/Deeney

      Ibra will be back in 2 gameweeks with 2 DGWs.

      1. noquarternt
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        This

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Do you not think there are way more good midfield options than strikers though? Especially given arsenal, spurs & liverpool's attacks literally do not have an FPL forward. Then the cut price bargains like josh king, siggy, son etc. Plus mids score more points for a goal & get CS points... I think in the long run there is a shift potentially towards attacking/OOP mids

          1. noquarternt
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            I've played 433 nearly every week and am at 14k OR, my best ever. Midfield is such a minefield. Sanchez Mané Siggy King Alli would be great, I can't really see any other midfielders I'd like. Maybe Hazard.

          2. Holmes
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Have to take steps like this on your own, majority dont like to go against the flow, so if you are confident, go for it...

            1. noquarternt
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              This is also true. Had Koscielny Brunt Alonso Rose for most of the season and everyone kept telling me to downgrade to fit into their beloved 343. If you reckon you can make it work- go for it!

      2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        I'm undecided between haz & costa. I could see the last 10 games being all about haz where the first 20 were all about Costa.

        1. Karan_G14
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Costa is going for the golden boot he'll be as motivated as Hazard or maybe more.

        2. Legomane
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Costa > Haz
          More tempted by Pedro tbh.

    My current defence is

    Valencia Coleman Olson brunt amat

    2m ITB

    Brunt to koscielny or bellerin?
    Thinking to gradually load Arsenal players in preparation for the double double gameweeks

    1. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Both waste of funds. Walker better even with one less game

    2. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Olsson injured and Amat not being selected are your main issues to resolve.

    3. noquarternt
      • 10 Years

      Not got a WC for that? Wouldn't get Arsenal defence just yet.

    Good morning all. whats the best transfer decision ??

    1. diomande/ carroll to costa
    2. diomande + firmino to costa + alli (-4 hit)
    3. carroll + firmino to costa + sanchez (-4 hit)
    4. diomande + firmino to defoe/vardy + hazard (-4 hit)

    my team is :

    Foster Pickford
    Alonso Coleman Baines Brunt Friend
    Mane Firmino Coutinho Siggy King
    Lukaku Carroll Diomande

    I have 7.8 ITB & 1 FT left. Any suggestion regarding the team would be very much appreciated.

    1. Speédy
      • 9 Years

      Firm and couts to sanchez and Alli

  23. sergioaguero67

    Sterling to Son
    Worth a hit?
    Please help.

    1. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Tough. Could be, in fact. I usually avoid hits, but except City to have tough time after the Monaco clash, while it has been not so hard to score against Southampton since they have been lining up a Championship level pair of CB's and a completely out of form GK. If you can really expect Son to start upfront, I think there are good chances that he will score, which would justify the transfer.

  24. Camp No No
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    So, ManU is going to miss Herrera, Pogba and Zlatan this weekend, and are playing away early Sunday afternoon after a tight EL match? Looks like Middlesbrough could be up for a surprise, but with their scoring problems and Mourinho's pragmatism, a boredraw much likelier than home win?

    1. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yeah definitely. So lucky they're playing Boro. A team like Everton would be rubbing their hands.

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Yeah, or Southampton that was postponed last week.

        I particularly think, if there's anything of Karanka's good defensive setup left, ManU could face great difficulties to score. Just don't want to bet on Boro starting to score now.

    2. Speédy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      0-1 with a mkhi goal or 0-0

    3. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Betvictor gives 8.5 odds for a boredraw. I think I might just take that.

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Paddy give 9.5. Time to open an account? They usually also have some ridiculous new account offers.

        1. noquarternt
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          It doesn't take much for one team to score bear in mind.

          You can get 3-1 on Arsene being Arsenal manager for their first Premier League match next season. All this mad ArsenalFanTV etc stuff will have quietened down and he'll sign the contract.

          1. Camp No No
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Of course, it doesn't take much, but this match has boredraw written all over it. Only thing I fear is the slight unpredictability of a team that just changed manager, but usually they first try their best not to lose, right? Although in this case, since Karanka likely was fired because of lack of attack, they might have pressure to show some more intent, but it just looks like plain suicidal for a smaller team to go attacking against Mourinho away and let them counter.

            I already put my money on Allegri the next manager before the odds fell. 🙂

            Still is not a bad bet, Arsene staying, I agree.

      Im a boro fan... have you actually seen them play? they have scored 3 goals in about 10 games in the league, boring as

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years

        So, you're agreeing with me then?

          i agree that we wont score, not with gestede upfront, hes garbage

  25. The Big Fella

    Would you rather have Mane from today OR Ibra when he is back in your team?

    1. noquarternt
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Ibra without doubt. No hesitation. Doublez.

      1. The Big Fella
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Wht about Hazard from today or Ibra when he has served his ban?

        1. noquarternt
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          I'd only want Sanchez above Ibra. He's the penalty taker of a team that wins a lot and scores tonnes of goals who has a few doubles and will be owned by every serious player.

    2. Karan_G14
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Ibra!

    3. Speédy

    Pointless reminder of the results in the equivalent league matches last year

    Crystal Palace 1-2 Watford (Adebayor) (Deeney x2)
    Stoke 1-0 Chelsea (Arnautovic)

    Bournemouth 3-2 Swansea (Gradel, King, Cook) (Barrow, Sigurdsson)
    Tottenham 1-2 Southampton (Son) (Davis x2)
    Man City 1-4 Liverpool (Aguero) (Mangala og, Coutinho, Firmino, Skrtel)

    1. noquarternt

      Was Arteta still playing last year? Must've signed for City early.
