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.

    I'm torn

    DDG - could make a load of saves, Mou bus, weakened City
    Ryan - easy fixture, Hudds need a win, has 1-1 written all over it, less saves

      Man Utd concede two, De Gea gets 6 saves for a 3 pointer, Ryan concedes one, gets three saves for a 1 pointer, Pope keeps a clean sheet, gets four saves, and a bonus point for an 8 pointer

          I don't think it will happen. Heaton has no chance of WC, Pope is in with a chance but only if he keeps his form up. Gamble I'm willing to make.

    Or

    B) Save FT, Mustafi and Auba to Fernandez and Kane next week

    Both for free but B will give me an extra GW34 player (Erikson or Alli). I could get a 4.5 playing in GW34 but really want Fernandez with GW37 in mind and decent fixture in 34 anyway. What do you reckon?
