The ScoutCast – Episode 256 – Voodoo

Recorded prior to Mohamed Salah’s injury scare, the ScoutCast crew already had one curveball to contend with in this latest episode as we mulled over Harry Kane solutions.

Fit-again and primed to skittle the Stoke City defence, Granville, Jonty, Andy and Az join me to discuss how we go about making plans for Harry ahead of two tempting Double Gameweeks.

Elsewhere in this episode, your community questions steer us to consider the optimum front three, assess Chelsea’s shaky confidence and weigh up the fixtures versus form conundrum that is Marko Arnautovic.

The regular weekend preview is then followed by an extraordinary bout of mind games from Jonty, who appears to have tap into the dark arts to prophesise Salah’s injury two days early. That would explain his rank this season; there’s been voodoo at work.

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

      if it's any help i'm going B
      FH 34 as I can get 11 decent players out in 35 with FTs (might need a hit if Salah confirmed out)

        Hmmmm....after being convinced of the WC this GW, having had no time to actually plan it...GW36 seems the best option...may have too much to do in my ML but gotta risk it for a whopping GW37 BB

    Mkhitaryan being injured is annoying, he was my s̶t̶u̶p̶i̶d̶ ̶v̶a̶n̶i̶t̶y̶ ̶p̶i̶c̶k̶ clever differential. Now I need to do some thinking. Ugh, I hate thinking.

      Don't think he was a bad pick - not many were expecting him to be benched last week, and you couldn't have foreseen his injury.

        I think he was a bad pick. Going for any Arsenal player bar Aubameyang was a bad pick.

        Those that have already WCed just trying to convince themselves they have made the right decision by the looks of it, even though it is too late to change that decision so a bit of a futile exercise.

        Will kane start ? Will he be effective as he's usually a slow starter after injury. This is a big one in terms of funds.

    If I choose to sell Salah, Eriksen (or even Alli) would be ideal, but then again I would want to have Kane (or at least keep a spot for him) and already have Verts who is going nowhere and Son.... I don't even want to ask whether Lingard is a good alternative in case Az is here to see this post, haha 🙂

    Could do Lukaku/Eriksen though, but with Kane, and can't have a spurs mid for Salah... Tough decisions in this game all the time....

    Difference between a good and bad GW33 is 10pts either way. Not worth losing any sleep over it. Bring on GW34, and let's have some fun.
