The ScoutCast – Episode 260 – Pacesetter

The ScoutCast crew are joined by the current Fantasy Premier League pacesetter in this latest episode, as world number one Bharat Dhody drops by.

With ice flowing through his veins, Bharat risks the curse that has seen us dent the title tilt for previous top-ranked managers to join myself, Jonty, Andy and Az for a ScoutCast season highlight.

Inevitably, the four of us are a little star-struck, but in between our desperate attempts to convince Bharat to keep his cards close to his chest, we put his season and current mindset under scrutiny.

Elsewhere, your community questions lead us by the hand as we assess Harry Kane’s updated application for the Triple Captain role, review the merits of a Mohamed Salah exit plan and scratch around for Double Gameweek differentials.

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.

    Are either of these worth a hit?

    A) Lowton > Fernandez
    B) Willian > Arnie

            I want a DGW player, so that's Zaha out. Arnie and West Ham just don't do it for me.

            Maybe I will keep Willian. I could just invest in a defender. I'll sleep on it.

    Sadly I can't find a way to bring in Kane, Dilva & Eriksen (three players my rival has who I want to cover) without losing Salah. I then wouldn't be able to bring Salah back in without taking out Sterling/Dilva/Eriksen in GW38. Do I:

    a) Keep Salah and not cover one of Kane/Dilva/Eriksen
    b) Get all three in and then take a big midfielder back out for Salah in GW38 (likely for a hit)
