With fresh rotation risks and plummeting form to deal with, the Scoutcast crew’s Fantasy Premier League teams are in danger of becoming out of date.

In this week’s episode, Joe, David and Az are joined by new regular Luke, who has stepped in for Andy, to cast their collective eye over the current Fantasy trends.

Joe is in search of the latest backline look as he seeks to dump his decidedly unfashionable defence.

Az’s midfield is looking more like mutton dressed as lamb these days and is in urgent need of a make-over.

Meanwhile, grey is the new black for David as he reveals his extra special overall rank following the last set of games.

Elsewhere, Luke’s success in Gameweek 9 shows he is ahead of the curve on the transfer catwalk, in particular with his Red or Dead defence.

Amid all the sartorial chat the crew find time to answer the key questions from the community as they window shop for bargain enablers and admire the top-price options at Manchester City.

Az’s rough with the smooth rundown features a disastrous set of hits for one former Scoutcaster.

The show is then rounded off with a close look at Gameweek 10, including the best differentials, clean sheet prospects and our transfer and captaincy plans.

  1. ⭐ ABHISHEK - THE CURIOUS …
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Trent was having visa issue ... thats why he didnt play 2 weeks ... was preparing for that flight.

    1. AlissonBecker fell alone
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Source?

    2. Stevie B
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      But he is English. Why he was unable to play in the Premier League (England)?

  2. Pierce34
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    I was kind of hoping Mane would not play today - not sure how Klopp will rotate for Saturday. I'm tempted to keep Sterling for now as I see him as less of a rotation risk this coming GW than Liverpool forwards.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Baring fresh injuries the main front 3 will start.

  3. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Had 6 players in my team yellow flagged last week after IB and suprise suprise everyone of them started in the end.

  4. Slitherene
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    TEAM : Pickford | Hamer
    Mendy | TAA | Luiz | Holebas | Duffy
    Hazard | Mane | Richo | Fraser | Jorginho
    Aguero | Vardy | Mitrovic

    FT : 1
    ITB : 1.5

    What can I possibly do with this lot? Looking for a differential.

    1. romer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Vardy to Firmino? His ownership must be low.

  5. A.T
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Talking of co commentators, I've always liked Jim Beglin.

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I like Arlo White with Lee Dixon and Graeme Le Saux as co commentators

    2. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Aye.
      This guy took some beating.

  6. rjcv177
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    New attack design by Klopp
    Salah Striker, Firmino in the hole, Shaq and mane on wings.

    In your opinion is this better or worst for Salah (C)?

    1. A.T
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Better

    2. Bolivian Seaman
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Salah just needs to time his runs

      1. Slitherene
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        And improve his finishing.

      2. rjcv177
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        this.
        to be honest i think in the hole would be better so that he could do give-and-take with Firmino on his runs 😉

    3. Ghost Gooner
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      How about watching the game instead of getting guesses?

      1. rjcv177
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        sorry ghost, won't bother u anymore
        thkx

  7. Pieterke30
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Really dont like to see Salah and Robbo starting tonight

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Liverpool need to win.

      1. Pieterke30
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        They would win without them

  8. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Just listened to the Scout Cast - so we should be selling Alonso 🙁

    1. Puntillimon
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Or you could put the captain on him

  9. as33
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Is Trippier still nailed for next gw?

  10. Turns
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    2FTs, 2.1ITB. Yes or no on the following please chaps:

    Jiminez, Richarlison -> Firmino, Billing

    Patricio
    Mendy - Robbo - Alonso
    Hazard - Maddison - Mane - Fraser
    Aguero - Mitro - Jiminez*

    Subs: Hamer - Richarlison* - Bennett - AWB

  11. Wheyyyy
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    2FT with 2.7ITB:

    Dilva + Trippier to-

    A) Mendy + KDB (leaves 1.3m)

    B) Salah + Duffy/Jonny (leaves 0.0m)

    Would love Salah for this GW but also have one eye on SOT @ City next week.

  12. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Keep thinking that last season Salah puts chances like tgat away and dosen't end up trotting on the keeper instead

    1. el polako
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Last season he would just run past him and roll the ball into empty net.
      Btw. Whats with all the long balls ? Liverpool not as fluid in attack as they used to be.

    2. Mysterion
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Missed boat loads of good chances last season too though...

  13. DAZZ
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Uch Liverpool have started so sloppy. Fabinho and Gini cant string a pass.

  14. squ1rrel
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Ederson (Hamer)
    Alonso - Mendy - Robbo (S. Cook - AWB)
    Haz - Mane - Ozil - Fraser (Guendouzi)
    Aguero - Mitro - Ings

    1 FT, 1.4 ITB

    Thinking about ditching Ederson this week for Fab or Ryan. Which of these two would you pick, or would you just save? Plan to bring in De Bruyne somehow

  15. F4L
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Shaqiri starting to nail down a place ?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      In 'easier' games.

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        so should start again at the weekend surely. Klopp maybe finally realising that the normal midfield 3 don't have enough creativity this season

    2. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Klopp playing a 4-2-3-1 tonight which enables a place for Shaq

    3. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      He's only started 2 games.

      1. F4L
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        2 in the league and today. Starting to look promising, performed well when given the chance as well

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          That's the problem. He's a good player, we all know that and surely Pep knows that, so it shouldn't be a surprise to him. I just don't think he is anywhere near first choice.

          1. F4L
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            well I hope Klopp knows it as well 😉

  16. It’s gonna Ben Mee
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Martial > Fraser for free next GW

    Yay or nay?

    1. The 12th Man
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Why would you want Fraser when their fixtures turn nasty?

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Mistake! Meant Fraser > Martial

        1. Epic Fail
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          No, I'd say Martial is better.

        2. The 12th Man
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Oh ok. I will be moving Fraser on after this week but for who? That the question. Martial,Özil are options
          Kennedy or Murphy if I want to move funds else where.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Surely thats meant to be the other way around, no?

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Yes

        1. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Then I would do it, I'm selling King and Fraser after tge Fulham match

  17. kime67
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    mane avoiding contact

    1. Baps Hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      With broken thumb that is hardly big news.

  18. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    US college applications process is *fluffing* stressful.

    1. squ1rrel
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      certainly is

  19. My Name Is Pepu
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Liverpool looking band average so far.

    1. Collie01
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Timing

  20. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Odds of Salah starting on Saturday?

    1. My Name Is Pepu
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Expect the front 3 to start

      1. TheSteel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Could see a rest for Salah tbh

        1. My Name Is Pepu
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Why?

        2. George Sillett
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          Someone predicts this most weeks.

          1. Epic Fail
            • 15 Years
            7 years, 5 months ago

            One day it will be true and they will be posting links to their 'prediction' claiming to be Nostrodamus.

  21. My Name Is Pepu
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Bobby G
    Robbo A

  22. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    OMG firmino

    Robertson assist

  23. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Bobby G
    Robbo A
    Shaq AA

  24. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    And that’s why Robbo is the best LIV defensive pick.

  25. Collie01
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Robbo assist

  26. el polako
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Shaqiri the new Ozil ?

  27. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Robbo save that for Cardiff

  28. Sideways Backwards
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Is the Hazard back injury real or just an excuse not to play him tomorrow?

    1. My Name Is Pepu
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Expect him to start vs Burnley

    2. Hits from the Bong
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Im sure he’ll play this weekend.

  29. Bolivian Seaman
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    1-0 Firmino

  30. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Was that Shaqiri or Ozil? 😮
