The final countdown has begun with the new season kick-off now less than 24-hours away.

Earlier the week the ScoutCast grew gathered as the clock ticked down, with Jonty, Andy and Luke joining myself to tackle a raft of perfectly targeted questions from you – the community.

Each of us take turns to reveal our current line-ups, while the collection of queries allowed us to put each of the four positions under the microscope. On occasions, we even broke from the ScoutCast tradition to provide some definitive answers.

Pre-season gremlins struck as I dropped out in full flow on Paul Pogba, but I managed to return to steer the ship towards its final destination – the first weekend preview of the new campaign.

It’s good to be back.

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

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

    -------------------------- Foster - Elliot ------------------------
    ---- Davies - Cedric - Simpson - Naughton - Long ----
    --------- KDB - Eriksen - JWP - Ritchie - Carroll --------
    ----------------- Lukaku - Kane - Firmino -------------------

    Simpson/Naughton rotate well. Waiting on team news for Cedric/Yoshida.

    Everything else look okay? GTG?

      Good to go son

      Spurs fan by any chance?

      1. TheOneAndOnly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        No, not particularly. Just think there's value in Davies at 5.5. Can't see a heavy hitter I like in midfield outside of Eriksen/Alli/KDB either? :/

        1. Waxys
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Heavy hitter in mid?

          Zaha maybe Son definitely when he's back

        2. MarvelouSuccess

          danilo represents good short term value like davies too. better fixtures and city are better at attacking. danilo had a stormer.

    DDG | Elliot
    Hegazi | Stones | Yoshida | PVA | Mee
    Alli | Salah | Willian | Atsu | Lokilo*
    Agüero | Lukaku| Gabbiadini

    0.5 ITB

    *Lokilo could become Carroll.. but I strongly believe Lokilo will be a bandwagon come GW2

    Good to go?

    1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      What are you going to do if the bandwagon is a 5.5?

      1. Siva Mohan
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Atsu + 0.5

        1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years

    2. Galza

      1. Lanley Staurel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Dont!

    3. Positive vibes
      • 10 Years

      I'm going with Lokilo too.

  3. bojack

    There's a decent chance FPL will crash this afternoon or early evening. So get your team.finalised now losers 😉

  6. carlosice
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Kola or Bellerin?

    Davies or Danilo?
    I know this is a likely short term choice

    Have Bertrand

    Thanks

    1. Concrete
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kola and Danilo

      1. carlosice
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks. You think both will start tho?

        1. Concrete
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Unsure on Kola I'm having doubts about him at the start

          Danilo will start

    2. ahak9
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Kola and Davies for me. I think Davies is more nailed than Danilo.

      1. MarvelouSuccess
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        How? Danilo will be LB over the injured Mendy just like Davies is in for Rose.

        1. ahak9
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          could be rotated with walker.

          1. ahak9
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            and sane could play lwb

  9. Concrete

    Having doubts over Kolasniac now
    Who has him, who's keeping?

    1. Victor6359
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Have him. Why the doubts?

  10. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    A. Eriksen
    B. Alli
    C. Coin toss

    1. The Tinkerman
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A, as some one else pointed out Alli would appear to be at a ceiling points wise. Eriksen has pretty low chance conversion and therefore has better chance of improving on last years score

  11. Waxys
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Hurry up already time passes too slowly when you have nothing to do

  12. Francescoli
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    bottled the Pedro call, Doos.

    1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ah. But maybe it's wise. I am going with Bats.

      1. Francescoli
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        🙂

  13. Alan_T
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Why do I have the urge to go with Mounie as a third striker so much?

    1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      There are tablets for that ... 😉

  14. Foozeball
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    1. Is Cedric nailed to start on Saturday, or would it be better to be safe and get Yoshida or Stephens?

    2. Will Tammy Abraham be fit to start on Saturday?

    1. Doosra - ☭BowenOfRice☭
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      1. I have Yoshida.
      2. No idea, sorry.

    2. Reuser
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      1) Stephens for me
      2) Wasn't mentioned as a doubt in yesterday's press conference and Llorente confirmed out. So most probably.

  17. Professor Abel X
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      1. Professor Abel X
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        No I don't, do you think he's more important than Saints attacking cover?

  18. TONEY HONEY
    • 9 Years

    Ritchie or Ince?

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  23. TN

    • 14 Years

    Almost every RMT has Kane.. Is it really that crazy to go Kane-less, if you have either Eriksen or Alli? 😮

    1. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ask your May self the same question

    KDB, Willian, Zaha, Fraser, (Carroll)

    Is it worth saving somewhere to upgrade Fraser?

    1. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

    Former Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has Rooney in his fantasy team.

    He also tips Spurs to win the title were it not for the wemberly factor he says their defence will suffer just look at their FA cup and Europa league games at Wemberly
