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.

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

    I've got 34 pts to make up in my cash mini league to come top - do-able, or a bridge too far? I'm thinking the latter...

      Very unlikely, but if you nail the best captain and few other luck factors. Are your teams very similar?

      1. Anathallo

        My thinking too. Somewhat similar teams, so have to hope the differentials nail it.

    IN 4 of my 5 leagues i'm over 80 points clear and in the other im 4th and so i think i'm gonna sacrifice a few points to differ my team.

    Thinking of getting in Ake, Coutinho, Sane and Kane for Gabbiadini, Hazard, Ozil and Bailly.

    Thoughts?

    Should I

    A. Alli to Coutinho- will Alli be rested and Eriksen start? It's a short time between games.
    B. Captain Sanchez or Kane?

    Thanks

    Guys, im 16 points behind leader and as you can see team is a mess. Leader has Sanchez / Jesus aswell

    I need to take a few hits i think? Maybe 8 or 12 points to at least get a decent team out

    Any ideas appreciated

      I don't like ndidi and Gabbiadini, I'd play herrera over Gabbiadini

      Maybe get Vokes in instead of gabbi

      1. jimmy12

        Was thinking Hazard > Coutinho first but it could be a very common transfer.

        I need a risk or 2 i think

  6. Invincibles

    8 years, 7 months ago

    A) hazard > coutinho
    B) alli > coutinho
    C) blind(bench) > matin

    Chasing 20pt lead so need a big score

    Hello guys;

    I really need input on this.. I am 11 points above the second place, my team below:

    Chech - (Caballero)
    Jagielka - Mawson - Yoshida - (Cameron) - (Walker)
    Hazard - Ozil - Sane - Alli - (N'Diaye)
    Jesus - Kane - (Barnes)

    The second place team below:

    Jakupovic - Valdes
    Shawcross - Mcauley - Ward - Holebas - Barragan
    Hazard - King - Sterling - Alli - Firmino
    Kane - Benteke - Vardy

    What should i do? Any recommendations? Should i replace Hazard with Couthino?,
    what about replacing Hazard and Barnes with Couthino and Origi for a -4 hit?
    Should i do nothing? any ideas?

    Cool, Conte just actually gave ZERO info in is presser

  10. rnrd

    Alli is quite a diificult case this week. I don't really fancy ditching him but really worried about his game time

  11. Trovsmash
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 7 months ago

    My ML comes down to this week, i take a 3 point lead into the final gw with this team:

    Cech
    Monreal Cahill Yoshi
    Alexis Pedro Alli King KDB
    Kane Jesus
    Cabellero Stephens Holgate Anichebe

    My ML rival has his BB intact & this is his team:

    Caballero
    Alonso Holding Yoshi
    KDB Sanchez Zaha King
    Kane Jesus

    he will play BB with Pickford Kelly Negredo Benalouane

    What should i do to get some differential in??

    Siggy? Cesc? Does Alli need to go? do we think cahill will start?

    1. Trovsmash
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 7 months ago

      Or even Alli > coutinho?

    Last 5 GRs are something to be proud of. Shame about the rest of the season.

    5k
    89k
    99k
    56k
    53k

    Going a bit against the crowd finally paid off. Hopefully doing the same next year will work out for more than 5 weeks haha

  13. SAINTS
