The ScoutCast – Episode 226 – Beached

Excess baggage checked in, deckchairs reserved and sun block applied – the Scoutcast team are all ready to hit the beach.

Smack in the middle of Gameweek 37, with points flowing from all angles, not even Hal Robson Kanu’s late goal can upset the pre-vacation mood.

Stringing five men across the midfield, Luke and Az join Jonty, Andy and myself for a bumper end of season episode as we tackle another volley of questions from you, the community.

We conduct a post-mortem on the flurry of chips, weigh up the Gameweek 38 punts, put together our final day Wildcard XI and take a look back on our own personal highs and lows of a topsy-turvy season.

After 128 minutes of that lot and sunstroke already setting in, we even forget to chat captains and transfers come the end, only to make amends later.

This ScoutCast was first beamed live via our YouTube channel on Tuesday 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.

      It's so difficult. Haz could haul big or blank royally. Most of us have him so it's a gamble either way.

      Anyone think there is a chance of Begovic starting? I might triple up on the Chelsea defence if I ship Haz.

      Morning Jaf. Do you really think he will? Aren't forwards always motivated to score? Theirs is the fun/glory role in the team. Even if he's 10% more up for it than normal it probably means he's 10% more like to score a goal, which might make his expected goals total 0.5 to 0.55%!

          I have to assume that all of the ones rested last time will be brought back. This puts questions marks around Azpi and Hazard. The only potential spanner in the works is a potential start for Terry, but this might be at Azpi's expense as he started the last game. I think you should be safe with Courtois, Alonso, Cahill.

            True....i did have a feeling that Conte would start his strongest XI in prep for cup final, and probably bring on Terry...but who knows. I just don't want to regret selling Haz if he starts, he could get a huge score v Sunderland.

            To be honest it comes down to hits for me, they never work out they way they do for some people on here. I took a -8 in GW 28 and ended up with OR 121K.....that was my last hits of the season.

            I had Eriksen Alli double for a while but always had Kun over Kane. I gambled and used my WC in 34 to try and utilise all 3 DGW's as best I could which worked for 3 MU players in 34 but bit my in the arse in 37 with DDG and Rashford.

        Ya I feel the same....its like a season of what could have been. I started going differentials after one criminal mistake in GW 24.....held onto Kun and captained him when I had 2 FT. I used them to sort my DF instead of switching from Kun and Diomande to Lukaku (great fixtures) and Jesus (who exploded on the scene). Kaku netted 4 and Jesus 2 and Kun got a 1 pter off the bench, stupid decision on my behalf and turned into a 50 pt swing and I raged transferred for about 2-3 weeks taking hits and getting differentials. Calmed down then and played the long game and gradually climbed back up the ranks. Lesson learned

    I was being so blooming clever rolling a transfer from 37 to 38 in anticipation of all these DGW injuries. In the end only Anichebe got injured and I was always going to bench him in 38. Now I have 2 FTs and nothing to use them on!
