The ScoutCast – Episode 250 – Cupset

With our end of season plans now at the mercy of the FA Cup fifth round, we slot in an extra show to absorb all the post Gameweek 27 chatter, in anticipation of another bumper episode to come.

Given Sergio Aguero’s 21-point impact – and the fact that the ScoutCast crew all missed out – we just couldn’t neglect the opportunity to front up and give our verdict on the Kanexit#2.

Jonty, Andy and Az join me in attempting to justify our actions and dismiss our disappointment before we debate whether the Argentinian should be now ruthlessly ejected from squads.

Meanwhile, your questions steer us to assess Mohamed Salah’s relentless consistency and captaincy credentials, while I make excuses for my own armband misdemeanours by blaming my reckless awards on a lack of season heroes.

We dabble in some early Gameweek 31 musings, while Jonty has 31 attempts at pronouncing Luka Milivojevic.

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

    Thinking about a -8, getting Kane and 2 blank week players with good fixtures between now and then , thoughts?

    Out:
    Sanchez Otamendi Ayew

    In:
    Kane Deulofeu Van-Dijk

    Current Team:
    DDG
    Otamendi Jones Bauer
    Walcott Salah Sterling Sanchz
    Aguero Firmino Ayew

    Bench:
    Elliot Milivojevic Ogbonna Holgate

      I’ve money in the bank (£1.3M)

      So exact money for these moves

      Top moves, might pay off straight away, if not not long after...

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 2 months ago

        Ye I think Kane’s a must but don’t want to lose Aguero so that’s what started me onto these moves.... 3 players with good fixtures so can’t go too far wrong I think... unless Sanchez goes crazy but that looks unlikely given current form

    3. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years

      Do it

      Not convinced.
      United have a good gw32 fixture, Spurs do not.
      I would not get rid of Sanchez.

      Probably Ayew -> Niasse is what I'd do in your situation.

      Go for it.
