There’s no other word for it, this week’s ScoutCast is certainly an “intense” affair, gripped by the troublesome uncertainty served up by the most testing double Gameweek in memory.

Jonty, Andy and Az once again join me as we quickly review our Gameweek 33s, before indulging in the main course – chewing through your queries that dissect the dilemmas served up by the forthcoming fixtures.

The merits of Zlatan, the head-to-head between Negredo and Benteke and a full risk assessment of shedding Sanchez and Sigurdsson – these are all topics to furrow the brow as we indulge in the most passionate of ScoutCasts for some weeks.

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

If you’re a traditional type, you can acquire the mp3 audio version via this link on the first player below, or take in the full visual experience via the second player below.

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

    Maybe Pogba is the safe pick now?

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      He doesn't score and he doesn't assist

    2. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Should be safe for 4 points.

    3. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years

      Herrera

      1. mchugho
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Pogba shouldv'e scored tonight if Fellaini didn't foul in the build up. Also hit one that would've gone in but for good goalkeeping. I would say he is more likely to pick up points than Herrera.

  2. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Come on Besiktas

  3. rashFord Fiesta

    Bench one:

    A) Valencia (knackered) 🙁
    B) Alonso (ill, and can't keep a cleanie) 🙁

    1. cjw176
      • 14 Years

      B

    Quarter to 1 in Istanbul and the pens are only getting better!

  5. fedolefan
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Look at the fire power in this forward line: Rashford, Benteke, Negredo

    1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Awful really isn't it

      1. fedolefan
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Bargain bin or Garbage bin?

    2. cjw176
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      No Kane?

    3. Dazzler365

      Fuar...steady on

    4. Fred54

      Where the hell is Rooney?

      1. fedolefan
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Eating pies with Wayne Shaw?

    5. Legomane
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Aguero Kane Lukaku 🙂

      1. fedolefan
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I can't believe people have that front line. I can only afford one out of those three at a time.

  6. Ógie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Nice first touch

  7. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    5-4 pens

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      4-4

  8. MTPockets
    9 years, 3 months ago

    McAuley > Gibson or Bailly? (ft)

    1. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Gibson

  9. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    As a Valdes owner I sympathise with you Ibra owners

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I have both 😆

      1. UnitedFan
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        lol

  10. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    5-5

  11. HazardAGuess
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    I am already on a -4 (not for Ibra) and had planned to do Foster > DDG. Given Ibra is now likely out...

    A) Foster > DDG & de Roon comes in for Ibra
    B) Ibra > Benteke/Negredo/Rashford & play Heaton
    C) Foster > DDG and Ibra > Benteke/Negredo/Rashford

  12. Mr. Funny Name
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Rooney is so tempting now....feels dirty, but good

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Genius

  13. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 17 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Is there seriously a DGW player worth captaining this GW??!

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Gibson 😉

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        😀 Ughh, maybe with Valdes behind him, but not with Guzan

    2. UnitedFan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Benteke

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        He could be you know. Back against his old club in Liverpool, and who knows how Spurs will turn up after their FA Cup semi-final.

        I'm quite liking that he's nailed on too.

        1. UnitedFan
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Yep, Liverpool have a defensive injury crisis too and Spurs aren't as resilient away from home

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 17 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Well, it's him or Negredo! I know Negredo is a regret waiting to happen so maybe I'll play it safe for once 🙂

          2. FPLFamily (Lee)
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Milner, Matip, Lovren, Clyne all fit and available unless I have missed something?

            1. Kuyt Hero
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Matip missed training today, as did Lucas

            2. big_cliff
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Matip is a doubt I believe. Hasn't trained this week if I'm not wrong

            3. big_cliff
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Klavan too

  14. HuttonDressedasLahm
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Great shoot out

  15. andy85wsm
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    May even save a transfer this week now

    zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    1. fedolefan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      DGW!!!

      1. AYLD28
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Mate I'm thinking the same even with the Ibra mess

      2. Fred54
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        For some reason I read that in Jonty's voice.

        1. fedolefan
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          I typed that in Andy's voice to be honest.

    2. Dirty Harry
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Definitely saving here even without having any United players

    3. drughi
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Same but can I really before a Dgw with only valencia and zaha in my team

    4. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Thinking the same but it doesn't feel right!

    5. UnitedFan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Blind or Bailly don't tempt you? Or you already have a United defender?

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Already have Valencia.

        Any further DGW defender transfer I make means benching Alonso so not really worth it

    6. Mr. Funny Name
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Get in and captain Wazza. If there's any man that'd do it its you 😀

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Not. A. Chance.

        🙂

        1. Mr. Funny Name
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Tempted to at least get him in myself

    7. MTPockets
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I would if didn't have McAuley + Amat.

    8. Legomane
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      🙂 at least I've a Kane to acquire somehow!

  16. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    6-5 Talisca

    1. HuttonDressedasLahm
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm watching live
      Only just took it :-/

  17. maclrc
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    With the Valdes and Ibra injuries, are any, or all, of these are worth it (i.e. potential -12 hit):

    Valdes and Llorente to any cheap non-Boro GK & Negredo worth it for -8 hit
    Ibra to Kane for -4 hit

  18. Fred54
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    You think this is bad now?

    Chelsea v Spurs and Citeh v Arsenal are non FPL games locked behind a deadline. If anything happens in those games theres sod all we can do when there FPL fixt comes around.

    : Grim Reaper :

  19. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    P0rn boy holds his nerves

  20. AYLD28
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Any help here chaps:

    Valdes
    Fabio - Valencia - Alonso
    Siggy - Alexis - Zaha - Eriksen
    Kane - Ibra - Benteke

    Bench: Pickf - Davies - De Roon - Bertrand

    1FT 0.5 ITB but no wildcard so was ideally looking to save but after Ibra, Fabio and Valdes not sure.. thoughts?

    1. Transfer Ibra >
    2. Transfer Fabio >
    3. Transfer Valdes >
    4. Transfer Valencia >
    5. Save and play De Roon, benching Ibra and hoping for the best with the others

    1. mchugho
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Transfer Ibra I think.

  21. the snazzy viking
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    6-6 Valbuena

  22. D0GS B0110XS FC
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    rashford or negredo?

    1. mchugho
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Rashford.

  23. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    How does Ibra - > Negredo and Sterling to Hazard sound?

    1. DaddyPig
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah good use of funds!

  24. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Maybe safer to steer clear of United strikers as clearly Mourinho will play Rooney vs Burnley then Rashford vs City like he did vs City

    Thoughts?

  25. Honeyman07 42
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Best city defenders going forward?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Clichy

  26. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    So to all people who brought in Ibra and Rojo this week.... Mwahahahaha

    1. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Good to see such quality observations.

      1. Sim Simma
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I know how they feel..I've been there..brought in Kane the night before he got injured

    2. Garlana
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Ibra i can understand, rojo was just silly to rush in for.

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Oh dear

  27. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Who to play ? Valencia I think has to be rested so is it better to bench this week and play Mawson in must win for Swansea or risk playing Valencia

    A Mawson (STK)
    B Valencia (Burnley Man City)

    1. GE
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Risk Valencia

  28. CostaCoffee
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    What's everyone doing with TC now???

  29. TheTinman
    • 10 Years
