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.

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.

    8 starters including captain. 1 not in the squad.

    As a Chelsea fan, I only bought Harry Kane in this week to put the TC on him because I know he will let me down!

    2. TooDifficuIt
      • 9 Years

      only Hazard for me

    3. Fuchs Mane Kante
      • 9 Years

      Rain it in.

  6. Hands Guber

    This isn't a complete disaster for Sterling (C)/(TC)'s until Kane and Jesus get some points tbqh.

    Then it's a complete disaster fair enough.

    1. TheDragon
      • 8 Years

      Moon lands on man

    2. Fantastisk
      • 8 Years

      This. Sterling still in the lead right now.

  7. Darsh

    Cmon Fernandinho, this gameweek is calling out for a DGW hero!

  8. Jafooli

    Yedlin - tick
    Son - tick
    Sane - tick
    Jesus - tick
    Kane (TC) - tick

    Sterling - dick

    1. Chucky

      😛

  9. Every Dog Has Its Day
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    As someone with Sterling (C) and Ederson ...

    HAHAHAHAHAHA you can't be angry with this disastrous DGW

  10. Spike ⚽️
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    No Hazard and Sterling (tc) no where in sight - season fecked!

  11. Richd
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    My only player not playing is my TC.

    So I’ve been lucky to avoid rotation. But why god why

    1. Ragabolly
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Same here

    2. Deulofail
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Because you chose Sterling...

      1. Richd
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I thought he’d at least come off the bench in one of the games. Out the squad is a shock

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

      Same boat (tonight) , but with Silva too. It's legitimately made me disinterested in the remainder of this season 🙁

  12. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Commiserations to Sterling, KDB TC. The lesson I'm taking from this season is never play the TC chip at the end of the season

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Or just TC someone nailed?

      Or Salah.

      1. Richd
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Like hazard ? 😉

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          GW34 showed his nailed-ness.

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

      Kane earlier this season?
      Kane last season?

    3. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I still got mine left gonna play it in the final week for fun

      that was always the plan

  13. CRO KLOPP
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Andy should've triple captained Fernandino

    1. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Don't. Feel so bad for him 🙁

  14. Royal5
    • 14 Years

    This has to go down as the worst DGW in history. Lol@everyone

  15. Dobswell55

    Jesus Sterling (TC) not even being in the squad hurts, was hoping he'd come off the bench at least..
    If Kane scores my seasons over.
    My seasons over.

    1. Dobswell55
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Pissed off pun intended

  16. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Will be even more disappointing now if Kane blanks.

    1. Arctic monkeys
      • 12 Years

      Hattrick confirmed

  17. Hy liverpool

    hazard feckeeeeer

    1. Debauchy
      • 13 Years

      Cont the fecker

  18. SAY MY NAME
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    like many I've had numerous dgw players miss games (inc sterling TC), but this was fairly likely to happen at this stage of the season

    goes to show that using chips like TC in a SGW earlier in the season when a player is on fire and has a nice fixture (eg salah vs Watford) can be the more prudent move (disclaimer: got 87 points from sanchez last season in a dgw), and another reason not to take big hits for a DGW

  19. Krafty Werks
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    No Sterling but then all my main rivals (top 2/3 in ML's) all have him anyway, main thing is my nearest rival who is in fact currently 8pts above me has Sterling(C) and Dilva so happy!! ME : Kane(TC), Jesus, Eriksen, Son, Maguire tonight, HIM : Aubameyang, Vardy, Eriksen...please be quiet Auba and don't go ruining it...again!!

  20. Patch

    How do ppl feel about David Silva's absence once again?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      He's gone back to Spain

      Well deserved time with family

    2. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      As expected. Much bigger than football.

      1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        This.

        I mean, seriously, how can anybody be irritated at losing points in a game vs the health of his family.

        1. Patch
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          This isn't even a troll post, just how I feel...he is a professional footballer...the clue is in the title.

          When you go to office work, you put on your business mask and get on with it, leave personal back at home.

          Nuff Said + again not a troll post.

    3. Patch
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I'm not gonna say anything then...there must be something different about me, I must be wired wrong!

      1. Fantastisk
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        He should toughen up?

    4. SouthCoastSaint
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Was a punt to chase a rival. Thought his little one was better.

      Seems like a thoroughly excellent bloke and family over Football!

    5. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It was always a massive risk.
      It’s only a game.

  21. Debauchy
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Note to self , use all chips before the last DGW of the season

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Ha. Yeah, agreed.

      1. Debauchy
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Haz TC had to risk as a chaser , ah well tired legs and all,,,

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Very very unlucky to be honest. Thought he d play after the Liverpool win

  22. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
    • 14 Years

    Sterling Silva Monreal Lowton,

  23. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Well done to those with Auba! Gonna be the real DGW differential

    1. Fuchs Mane Kante
      • 9 Years

      Thanks again.

  24. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Only 62pts needed to crack the ton with four playing tonight, and a possible two tomorrow.

    A breeze eh?

  25. tricky80
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Hazard on bench, Monreal double blank... My whole season stuffed. Desperately need Kane TC returns and Pogba to go goal crazy.

    Maybe even a Morgan CS... smh.

    1. Bragazeti
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Major disappointment. Hope Arsenal ships in a couple today

  26. EL_FENOMENO
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Sterling, Lingard to Salah, Mili for -4 or Lingard to Zaha for free

  27. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Need another Kane and Jesus blank.
    Ranked 4k now, be lucky to be 20 by the end of tonight

  28. SouthCoastSaint
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    When your rival 31 points ahead has Ederson, Monreal and Sterling and you have triple captain Kane over his standard captain...

    It’s the hope that kills you

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      That line was part of a soliloquy I did back in my teens.
