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.

    Best option to save the 1.5m needed for Auba > Kane?

    A. Son > Lingard
    B. Gross > Lewis Cook

    Swaying towards B as (i) I’d much rather have Son from GW36 onwards, (ii) I have my doubts about Gross’ potential, iii) not convinced by Lingard who burned me earlier this season plus rotation likely and (iv) it maximises the value of the first XI (avoiding expense on the bench).

    Would give me a ‘14 doublers plus Salah’ BB team in GW34 of the following, with FH to come in GW35:

    DDG (Ryan)
    Alonso, Morgan, Lowton (Dunk, Long)
    Salah, Mahrez(vc), Son, Willian (Cook)
    Kane(c), Vardy, Barnes

            I’ve weighed up the options and with my squad definitely think BBing this week to maximise the doublers on my bench is the way to go. Plus I’d much rather TC Kane in 37 given his fixtures.

    BBing with this lot for now:

    DDG Ryan
    Alonso Bailly Morgan Duffy Lowton
    Salah Mahrez Son Willian Arnie
    Aubameyang Vardy Barnes

    2 FTs, 0.3 itb

    Which of these looks the best?

    Aubameyang + Son ➡ Kane + Lingard

    Aubameyang + Bailly ➡ Kane + Long

    Salah, Son + Aubameyang ➡ Sanchez, Kane + L. Cook -4

    Leaning towards B as Bailly will likely play just one game of the double and Long is an utter bargain now Mee is out. Would rather keep Alonso as I feel he's bound to come good soon. Son could get a rest for Brighton but will get some minutes off the bench anyway and is good to have from 36 onwards.

    Should I go for B?

    How important is having Kane in GW36 vs waiting until GW37? I know 37 is the big one (TC that week), but with BB this week and FH next, wondering if I should save the money (1.4) to go Lukaku->Kane in GW36, or just plan to double-swap him in GW37. Or simpler:;

    a) Save 1.4+ to ensure Lukaku->Kane in GW36
    b) Get Kane in GW37 with a double-swap, worry about it later

      Woah, let's answer the question 😆

        That makes some sense. Keeping Lukaku until GW37 gives me a bunch more options for this week, without needing to sacrifice elsewhere to find Kane (plus, I can TC Kane in 37 which I won't do this week).

        Preference here, if I were to keep Lukaku? Have (a) currently, 0.0 ITB, but 2 FT
        a) Mahrez + Christensen
        b) Pogba + Vertonghen/Bailly/Maguire
        c) Eriksen + Morgan/Chillwell

        I can get him now, if I make some big swaps, but it feels like Lukaku's a better bet in GW34.

        Would need to get 1.4 ITB out of either Alonso, Son, Salah, Willian, or Vardy. With a BB, not sure if any of those downgrades are worth the possible Kane boost -- especially if we think Lukaku in GW36 is also no worse than Kane...

        I think that's rubbish as he has been very good lately despite the lack of FPL points. It's the team performance as a whole that is the problem, that and the fact that Conte has his mind made up on leaving more than likely.

          Being defenders is not what usually scares people. Big hauls by Mids/Fwds is more of a worry.

    0.8m 2FT

    Does the best use of the 2FTs look like Mustafi & Auba -> Long & Kane? (exact funds for this)

    Will stick with Salah.
    Other changes possible would be Alonso down as an enabler for maybe Vardy->Lukaku

      Long and Kane looks like a good bet.
      I have Lukaku, though, and his fixtures couldn't be better.
      I'd go with option A, though. Keep Vardy.

        That's my thinking. Any more than those 2 probably means an 8pt hit. Now I have Alonso I think I have to go for the 1/2pt per game ride.
