The ScoutCast – Episode 257 – Carping

The ScoutCast crew are always quick to jump on the shoulders of giants, so when a veteran of the Fantasy Football Scout community starts to threaten a Fantasy Premier League title tilt, we just have to get them on the show.

Matt Kearney aka “Bowstring the Cap” has been about on our pages for seven seasons but never has he experienced one like this. Currently ranked twenty-third in the world, he drops by in this latest episode to offer his take on the campaign and, in particular, the strategy for the run-in.

In truth, Matt was better placed before Gameweek 33 and, along with Jonty, Andy and Az, he joins me to look back at the lowest scoring weekend of the campaign when even the leading managers faltered.

But those gripes are soon drowned by a wave of enthusiasm on the eve of Double Gameweek 34.

That’s the focus for your latest set of community questions, sparking our thoughts on the optimum heavy-hitters, the rotation fears and our confidence in Chelsea to produce over the extra fixtures.

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

    Thanks to Kevin Long/Ben Mee, I have the following transfer options. Currently lacking a good captain with no united attacker too.

    A) Stick to plan A. Mustafi and Auba to Smalling and Lukaku (Free, No Kane).
    B. Mustafi and Auba to Kane and Long (Free, No United attack).
    C. Mustafi, Auba and Gross to Kane, Long and Lingard (-4)
    D. Mustafi, Son and Auba to Pogba, Long and Kane (-4).

    8. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      If A, what is the plan for Kane in 36/37? Might do B and avoid hits later.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

  6. lucasleiva7
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    BB this week and already have Lowton and Barnes in my team, which one do you pick:
    A) Long and Ward-Prowse
    or
    B) Yoshida and Gudmundsson

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Transferred Out
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure WP or Gudmund are nailed. Maybe look at Hojbjerg - played every game under Hughes

  7. Old Gregg
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Morning,

    this may be a silly question. Thinking ahead to 35

    In regards to FH can you use the free weekly transfer before activating FH Chip?.

    1. WE GO FOR IT
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No. All transfers that week are counted as FH transfers.

      1. Old Gregg
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks. Didn't consider that.
        Shame.

    2. Transferred Out
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Your team will revert back to the team before the transfer

      1. Old Gregg
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        thanks

  8. Powell
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Tough week this week. My head hurts. Set up to use TC this week and BB in 37, but candidates all look flawed.

    Kane – Poch seemed to hint that Kane is sulking. Plus, City haven’t quite won the league yet.

    Lukaku – Sensational fixtures, but I wouldn’t put it past him to get two blanks.

    Sanchez – Gut feeling says he could get 20+ points, but poor stats, deeper role and rotation concerns are a problem. Would require a hit or two, too.

    Mahrez – No.

    Austin – There will be goals. But no.

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Going for Sanchez personally

      1. Powell
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I would if I could bring him in for nothing.

    2. Salarrivederci
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Similar position mate. Not owning Kane - atleast my choice is between Sanchez & Lukaku unless I buy into all that rotation talk and go with Vardy 😉

      What are you thought on Moses going into this DGW btw? If Zappa remains out do you reckon he will play both, or are things gonna happen with that Chelsea lineup due to recent bad results?

      1. Powell
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Not sure. Long term info never happens. It’s always the day before or day of the game. I’ll get something before Burnley, but it’s irrelevant, because the FPL deadline would have passed.

        1. Salarrivederci
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Alright thanks. Thought you might had some before the Southampton game. If they lineup in their usual lineup I think I would just hold Moses and hope Zappa is still out.

          Otherwise I am looking to do a -4 to bring in Valencia. Just seems a bit silly.

          1. Powell
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Full strength vs. Southampton. Surely. No reason not to.

            1. Salarrivederci
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Alright. Might just stick then! 😉

    3. Salarrivederci
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I would pick Lukaku though. Sanchez just secured me 38 points in the only two weeks of owning him this season. Feels like I am commiting adultery giving Lukaku the armband.

    4. Freddo
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Kane. He's taken some bad press this week, seems the type to answer it in the right way.

      City have had the week from hell, conceded 8 goals in 3, Spurs will be looking to make a statement.

      2-2, 3-3, something spectacular could happen.

  9. Lignja
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A. Hojberg
    B. Dale Stephens
    C. Oriol Romeu
    D. Rlc
    E. King
    F. other 4.5m or less non Burnley mid

  10. machickenz
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    So which option lads to complete my DGW team?
    B) Eriksen + Wood
    C) Vardy + Lingard

    DDG Ryan
    Alonso Lowton Morgan Tarkowski Dunk
    Willian Pogba Mahrez Alli XXX
    Kane Murray XXX

    1. Toblerone52 - Zlatan Ibra-H…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      B as you won't want triple spurs attack v city

    2. Old Gregg
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      What happened to A?

      Is this WC or transfers?

      tough. You have ali and Kane

      Is Vardy + eriksen an option and lose Mahrez to Lings

  11. FPL_WILDCARD
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Is Murray -> Austin worth a -4?

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No imo

    2. Voodoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      50/50, depends on your league situation I guess.

    3. NATSTER
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Doubt it myself.

    4. MFC Lad
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Nah

  12. Make Arrows Green Again
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Just listened to the Scoutcast. Great cameo from Matt the Carp. He seems like a very thoughtful and eloquent guest.

    1. Powell
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Agreed

    2. MFC Lad
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I do like it when they have the guests on to get some different views

  13. NATSTER
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Bottomed. Help please. I'm now wondering if I should take a hit to replace Mariappa who might be at risk of not starting.

    Which option do you recommend?
    (a) Auba + Mariappa ->> Vardy + Long (two home, but LEI & CHE)
    (b) Auba + Mariappa ->> Vardy + Moses (great fixture, but rotation risk?)
    (c) Auba + Mariappa ->> Vardy + Vertongen

    DDG - Hennessey
    Alonso - Tarkow - Lowton - Simpson - Mariappa
    Mahrez - Son - Willian - Lingard - A.King
    Kane - Lukaku - Auba

    1. Tshelby
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C looks best imo

      1. NATSTER
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thank you. I forgot to say that I have no FH.

        So, Long will give me one more player for BGW35. Would it affect the advice ?

        1. Tshelby
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Mmm yeah but I think with gw 37, also being a double for Spurs, I would still go for C

        2. _figu
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          It does. I'd go A

          1. _figu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Actually might still be C. Very close. Double burnley seems a bit much goven fixtures.

            1. NATSTER
              • 13 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Thank you. I haven't carefully thought about DGW37 yet.

              Vert sounds like a good choice.

              Chelsea have fixtures, but their form and focus on the cup seem to be concern.

    2. Voodoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

      1. NATSTER
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thank you.

  14. Tshelby
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    RP really could do with some advice here

    Going to play my bench boost this week but got Monreal and VDH on my bench and they will probabily not play this week so

    A) Monreal and VDH -> Davies and Long (-8)
    B) Monreal -> Smalling (-4)
    C) Do nothing and think about TC

    Still got my FH for gameweek 35

    1. Old Gregg
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I think VDH trained on Thursday. What for pressers on this one.

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        He did, although away from. The main group.

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

          He rejoined the main group yesterday and "will be assessed".

    2. Tshelby
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Cheers will wait on more news

  15. Afghanistanislas
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Which of these would you do:
    A) Auba, Vardy and Son > Kane, Lukaku and Andy King (-4)
    B) Auba, Son and Mahrez > Kane, Sanchez and Andy King (-4)
    C) Neither (only get one of Kane/Sanchez/Lukaku)

    1. My neck my back my Saed Kol…
      • 9 Years

      Struggling with a very similar conundrum and I’m stumped!

    2. MFC Lad
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C - too much downside risk in A and B for me

  16. Voodoo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    My rival is 15 points behind me but with their TC intact (mine isn’t). They own Lingard I don’t. I need to take Haz out to get Kane in...

    If you could afford both who would you go for?

    A) Lingard
    B) Pogba

    Thanks!

    1. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Pogba gets more minutes and is an mini run of form

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A, block. And saves cash

      1. NATSTER
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I agree with this. Block and save cash.

  17. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Acknowledging that Spurs full backs are risky, best duo here?

    A) Trippier & Kane(c)
    B) Bavies & Lukaku(c)

    FHing in 35. If doing B) I’d switch Lukaku -> Kane in 36

    1. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      * Bavies could also be Vertonghen, but he seems quite a dull pick

    2. Darsh
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    3. Tshelby
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B rose is injured so Bavies should be fine this week

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, but ideally I want him 36 & both in 37 also.

        1. Tshelby
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I'm hoping that Poch just will decided to let Davies finish the season

  18. Bobby_Baggio
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Which combo please guys......

    Fabianski
    Dunk - Alonso - Robertson
    Silva - Mahrez - Walcott - Eriksen - Willian
    Auba - Kane(TC)

    (Speroni) Quaner - Tomkins - Dawson

    A) Speroni + Walcott > DDG + 5.6m (-4)
    B) Speroni + Walcott > Pope + 6.5m (-4)
    C) Speroni + Walcott + Quaner > DDG + 4.8m + Barnes (-8)
    D) Speroni + Walcott + Quaner > Pope + 5.7m + Barnes (-8)

    1. Tshelby
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

      1. Bobby_Baggio

        Cheers

    2. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A with Smalling

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks but it's Walcott

  19. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Any news on Ibe?

    Considering Ibe > Gundmundsen

    1. MFC Lad
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Confident on Gudmundson playing?

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        More confident than Ibe. At least there has been some news on Gundmundsen and he has a game in 35.

    2. fr3d
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'm getting rid of Gudm for a hit

      1. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Lol

    3. MFC Lad
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'm holding for now

  20. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I’m 19 points clear at the top of my ML. I know my rivals going to captain Lukaku and definitely won’t have Kane, so do I play it safe and captain Lukaku or do I captain Kane?

    1. Make Arrows Green Again
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You know the answer already. Captain Kaku.

      19 points is nothing really and still 5 weeks to go. Too early to cover IMO just go with who you think will score best. That said, captain Lukaku!

    Comments please!

    Wild card team:
    DDG (Pope)
    Vert / Smalling / Lowton / Morgan (Robertson)
    Mahrez / Willian / Eriksen (Arnie / Miliv)
    Vardy / Lukaku / Wood

    Thanks!

      Wood definitely worth the extra money over Barnes?

      I would be playing Arnie this week, despite the single gameweek,

      Are you Free-Hitting next week?

        Agree with this, I’d play Arnautovic over Morgan

        1. Hodg55
          • 7 Years

          Would you not replace Morgan then with another DGW defender?

        No FH available... only BB and TC left...

    Should I use TC this DGW since I can only field 9-10 dgw players and save BB for DGW37 where I can get in 13-14 dgw players?
    Or will I be missing a great TC chance on dgw37?

      TC is too unreliable a chip - don't fail to maximise your bench boost by thinking about TC.

      I would BB in 37. You're assuming that there will be key targets to TC then but Kane could be injured, Aguero rested etc etc.

    Got an 8 hour coach journey today. Anyone recommend some fpl podcasts?

      Fantasy Football Scout is alright.

      joking aside someone also mentioned one called 'Who got the assist' or something like that. I have never listened to that though

      I'm going to check out Andy's Let's talk fpl one today from last night

  25. pedjaaaa

    Pope
    Dunk - Alonso - van Dijk - Laporte
    Salah - Sane - Milivojevic
    Jordan Ayew - Auba - Kane (c)
    --------------------
    Eliot - Richarlison - Choupo - Mee

    0 FT left, what seems better:
    1) Lingard --> Choupo (-4)
    2) Mee --> (double game defender) (-4)
    3) Both

    Thx

    1. RIDZ

      Auba to Vardy or Sane to Mahrez

    When does the Anfield express normally leak the team news?

    B) [-4] - Kane / Lukaku (C) / L Cook / Long

    How do we think the Spurs full backs will line up for the rest of their fixtures?

    It feels like Bavies & Aurier are first choice, so I expect them to play in the FA cup. Could Trippier be a sneaky pick for the league?

    1. skodaole2
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I believe it will be 2-3 games for Trippier, 2-3 games for Aurier and one game random choice. Aurier should start in the cup. Davies more secure choice, he should start all but one game at least.

      Think I'd go Vert

    Morning everyone , need some help:

    a) If you had both Burnley's GKs and had to drop one to play BB, would you keep Pope or Heaton? Dyche's words must mean Pope will continue being in starting XI right?

    b) Play one of Sakho (BRI), Ki (EVE) or Perez (ARS)

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Pope is the Man. Heaton may get a game though so be aware of this.

      Sakho.

      1. skodaole2
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers, thats what i thought. Will be anxious for starting XI of Burnley both times but have to choose one of them and Pope seems the right choice.
