The ScoutCast crew are desperate to lift themselves after falling victim to one of the most underwhelming Double Gameweeks in memory, though with five matches still to come, there remains a tinge of optimism.

Granville, Jonty, Andy and Az join me for a full strength line-up as we begin the post-mortem on Triple Captain failure and unrewarded points hits.

The five of us collectively kick ourselves for ignoring Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, as the foresight of one leading Fantasy Premier League manager sparks debate on how and why the masses overlooked the Gunners’ striker.

Mohamad Salah’s untimely slump is also assessed as we’re guided by your community questions, before we look ahead to Gameweek 38 via our handpicked selection of differentials designed to lift our spirits come Sunday.

And, while we’re in a reflective mood, we also take time out to consider our early lessons learned from the campaign, with much more to follow in next week’s final episode of the season.

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

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    This is so harsh. 11 players with DGWs with 2 of them not playing at all, bringing in 3 points from the bench, with third sub MacArthur on 10 points. VD Hoorn and Naughton miss a game each, picking me up 3 points between them. TC on Sterling for a whopping 9 pointer. Along with 12 point hit. Smashed my H2H league but now going to get knocked out in the semis.

    It's a miserable game.

      You're doing god's work there buddy, keep it up.

    Surely the Sterling cappers knew that he wasn’t nailed for both games. Jesus cappers also got a bit lucky.

    Literally the only reason I went Kane(TC) over both of them.

    1. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Jesus about to PUNISH you for your sins.

    2. Regin
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Thank god I TC Jesus than sterling. Hope Jesus scores atleast 1.

      "Jesus cappers also got a bit lucky"
      Surely with Aguero out it was the percentage call over Sterling...

      1. L S P
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        pretty much a no-brainer. a lot without brains tho. 😛

      2. Les Bleus
        • 15 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        I guess you can say that. There were talks about a false 9 though.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 9 Years

          True, but Pep has only used that formation once all season so l wasn't buying it tbh...

  6. Fuchs Mane Kante
    • 9 Years

    Two no shows from Monreal the absolute monstrosity.

  7. TheTinman
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I knew I should punted on Iwobi

  8. Chris_H
    • 17 Years

    All eight players playing tonight, it's a Christmas miracle!

  9. Leaf

    Really didn’t see the Hazard one

    Their inform, best player in a must win game.

    1. Dokdok666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Same story last GW. He just doesn't have to fitness like most other players, it's why he more or less always is subbed at 80 mins

  10. Bluth Banana
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Hazard played fantastic against Liverpool, really hitting his stride - and gets benched in what could be a season defining match. He will get almost a months rest ahead of the world cup anyway. Conte has lost it. And yes, obviously I own Haz

  11. Darsh
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    if youre in the top 10k and havent captained sterling but own him, then him not starting isnt that much of a loss

    1. Leaf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Yep, not bothered

    2. Regin
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      How many captained or TC sterling?

  12. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Dat sterling triple c will go gown in history

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      At least he matched Kane (tc) in GW 22.

      1. Eden Wizard
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        Lol! I’d love it if Jesus did too! All that hate between 22-37

    2. Fuchs Mane Kante
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      On Par with Trollkaku and Big Sandy.

  13. stat
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Sterling got me as many points as Andy Carroll TC back in 15/16

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Last year was my first season and was treated to that Kane TC.

      I think I've set myself up to be disappointed each and every year to come now.

  14. FFSbet.com

    No Hazard,Sterling,Ederson...what a BB

    1. Yozzer

    1. L S P
      • 10 Years

      1. Syd.
        • 17 Years
        8 years, 3 months ago

        That’s true

        1. L S P
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 3 months ago

          i've decided there should be a Comments OFF feature that comes with membership

    2. Regin
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      The only things I am disappointed with in the teamsheet is that Otamendi is not playing.

  16. Bobby_Baggio
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    My worst sexond part to a DGW to date......

    No monreal
    No DSilva

    1. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Lingard plays tomorrow.

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 15 Years

  17. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I took risks this week and they pretty much all punished me.

    Goodbye Top 10K.

  19. DV8R

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      On the bench at least

  20. Eden Wizard
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I’m sure nobody cares but I’m buzzing that Simpson is playing! Lol

    1. Danno - Emre Canada
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      Haha ditto, stops my zero Bauer off the bench. Simpson red incoming

  21. TrollMasterDeluxe
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Hmm I guess Sterling can repay us in GW 38 maybe? I hope Sane don't go mad beacause my ML rival has him

  22. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

  24. Rash
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    I'm not exaggering when I say this season been the worst for rotation? I remember last season being quite bad but this one seems 10x worse

  25. Berty Dastard
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Who to captain? Have a choice between Willian, Kane, Aubameyang and Sane?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 16 Years

      1. Berty Dastard

    Let's go Gabriel Jesus

    1. bitm2007
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      I'd take a goal and a bap or two (x3 for TC)

  28. bitm2007
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    7 out of 8 starting for me including TC (have Sterling), that could have been a lot worse.

    1. Regin
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 3 months ago

      5 out of 7 here. No sterling (like most) and no Otamendi.

  29. OldBenKenobi
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 3 months ago

    Can’t believe I rode my luck not getting any City players in. Just hope my triple spurs attack works out for me still....
