Joe is joined by David and Karam for the latest episode of the Scoutcast tonight.

You can watch it on our YouTube channel from 8pm BST to 9pm BST.

This episode overlaps with the return of European football to our screens.

Liverpool and Chelsea take on Napoli and Valencia respectively as the Champions League group stages get underway on Tuesday night.

We will have Scout Notes on those matches on Wednesday, but for now, there’s a brand new episode of the Scoutcast to occupy your attention.

On tonight’s agenda are the best cheap defenders now that the premium ones have frustrated their owners.

We’ll also discuss how best to cover Manchester City in the wake of their surprise defeat at Norwich.

Finally, we’ll debate how to recover from a poor start to the season as many managers have endured a tough few weeks.

    I heard Jamie Jackson predicted this Mount injury

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      I heard Jamie Jackson is the FPL bogeyman.

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        The bogeyest of bogeymen

    2. De Gea Van Dijk. 10

    What about Mount?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Unless you have him as your 3rd or 4th mid, get rid.

  3. Zladan

    Mount to Iwobi.

        SHU (h) seems a nice punt. 5.9m can’t go too wrong.

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years

    Pope
    TAA Aurier Digne
    Mane Sterling KDB Cantwell

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      6 years, 10 months ago

      Norwich won't be playing Man City every week.

      1. Dynamic Duos
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        It is actually a 4-3-3 mate but Cantwell plays this week

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Actually he is good cover for one of the defenders to.

    2. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      decent

  8. grooveymatt65

    Hi guys!

    What are your thoughts on this wildcard team please?

    i tried to keep double city because of fixtures but also wanted Son. Only regret is not having Aubameyang. Also im punting on Aurier and if he doesn't play i atleast have some back up.

    Pope Button

    Aurier Pieters Soyuncu Lundstrum Diop

    Son Sterling Mane De Bruyne Chong

    Haller Abraham Pukki

    0.0 itb

    thanks guys 🙂 🙂

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years

      That defence though, ouch!

    2. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      7/10

  9. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Did something happen to Mason Mount?

    1. SB007
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      He can't mountain his momentum now

      1. @fpl_phenom
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        sweet jesus

      2. ‘Tis the Season

  10. Hazz

    • 9 Years

    Brokeankle Mountain.

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      I cant think of any more Mount puns :/

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Vaseline included.

    3. Don Kloppeone
      • 8 Years

      C+ keep up the effort

  11. dshv
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    So what now? How it looks like. Mount will miss only this week or more ?

    1. Licious Lizard
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Please refrain from these idiotic questions... Nobody on here knows anything yet.

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Martial has missed how many? Hold onto him if you like.

    3. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      looked like a metatarsel from the commentary section on flashscore

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        if that's the case then it's probably 6 weeks. I broke one may centuries ago and I was out for 2 months.

  12. Longlatini
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Get used to reading the word Mount over the next few days

    My eyes hurt already 🙂

    1. Licious Lizard
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      This. Come on, guys, it's simply moronic asking 18 times per page whether he will be back this weekend.

      1. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Will mount be back this weekend?

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          I wouldnt mount on it

          1. Longlatini
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 10 months ago

            Nice!

  13. Ange Ball
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    I'm I losing my mind I'm thinking I might just bring in Ozil I have sneaky feeling. Same feeling when got in Pukki for his hatty and Mount GW2

    1. SB007
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      oh deary me

      1. Ange Ball
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Remember my name on the weekend when he does well

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      its probably just gas

  14. dfroes
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Gunn (Button)
    Soyuncu TAA Dunk (Kelly, Lundstram)
    Iwobi Mane Son Sterling Cantwell
    Pukki Auba (Greenwood)

    Have 2 FT.

    Thinking of doing Iwobi and Greenwood to Cleverley and Abraham.

    Thoughts?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Cleverley?

      1. dfroes
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        7 shots against Arsenal, n10 role and only 4.9

    2. LC1
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      V nice team!

  15. Moderately content penguin
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    He’s home from 3 blue arrows on fplstats to one in the last 25 minutes. Triple red by the end of the game?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      By 11pm

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years

      Fake news

  16. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Tagliafico goal + assist

    Lovely stuff

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      And Ziyech assist.

      Both in my team. This is dreamy stuff after the Haland hatty 😀

      1. Zladan
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Exact same as me.

        TAA and Vlad also holding down the clean sheets.

        1. pundit of punts
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Vlad in there as well.

          No TAA. Need something from Mane, Messi and Pizzi now.

          1. Zladan
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 10 months ago

            Just Sensi 5 pointer, Mane and Martinez blanks for me today - both of whom I switch for Mahrez and KDB tomorrow (maybe Lodi).

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Tagliarifico!

    3. De Gea Van Dijk. 10
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Nice pointage.

  17. mdm
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    On WC:

    Pope 4.0
    Otamendi AMN Tomori (Lund Rico)
    Salah Sterling Son Cantwell (4.5)
    Auba Pukki Tammy

    Any suggestions how to improve it? Thanks

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      No Ota on WC to be frank.

    2. SB007
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Fine as is! - maybe Salah out and KDB or Mane in and get a premium Liv defender

  18. Freaki
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Anyone watching Barca v Bvb Ter Stegen clearly off his line when pen was taken, var having a sleep I see

    1. Poseidon.
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Same for literally every pemalty ever taken

    2. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      VAR not used for that offence. Was seen as being ‘over-officious’ after Scotland’s Women team were penalised for a marginal foul.

      1. Brehmeren
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Was used gw1 against West Ham when Aguero got another go after missing the first.

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Its used differently depending on the league/competition its in.

  19. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Tagliafico on 16 points. 😯

    1. Konig Luther
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      doing his job as usual

    2. tutankamun
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Should have captained him

  20. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    It couldn’t have been Abraham? 😆

    1. Longlatini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Fraid not

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 17 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Frayed knot

        1. Longlatini
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          🙂

  21. Dthinger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    okay...so if Mount turns out to be seriously injured, I just might use my Wildcard. Thoughts on this:

    Pope Button
    TAA Digne Lundstram Rico Tomori
    Buendia Cantwell Salah Sterling James
    Auba Pukki Abraham

    It's a benching headache, right?

    1. Pukki Party
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Triple Norwich too much i think

    2. ‘Tis the Season
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Nice team

  22. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    When is Emerson coming back? Lampard changed formation to basically accomodate Goalonso it seems.

  23. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Lol, UCL team hasn’t even had everyone play yet but beating my FPL team on points based on last 2 week scores

  24. Birds of Prey
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Why in the USA is Turner network showing Liverpool/Napoli game on both of their channels? Why isn't a rested Pulisic playing?

  25. tucaoneo
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Sancho over Reus going well.

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Points for winning pens in FUCL?

      1. tucaoneo
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        Yes even if it doesn't go in

        1. Rainer
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 10 months ago

          Way it should be!

      2. Konig Luther
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 10 months ago

        yes. 2pts or 3pts

  26. Viper
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Is the UCL fantasy game the same point system as FPL?

    Not playing, just curious

    1. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      A few differences and a better system imo.

      Couple of notable diffs:
      3 ball recoveries = 1 point.
      Goal outside box = extra point.
      Winning a pen = points

    2. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Recovered balls.

  27. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Messi, Mane and Pizzi letting me down.

  28. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Mount to Ozil?

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Would rather go Hayden

    2. Longlatini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Would rather not

  29. @fpl_phenom
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Pope
    VVD Digne Zinchenko
    Sterling KDB Mane Son Cantwell
    Barnes Pukki
    -----------------------------------------
    Button Montoya Greenwood Lundstram

    what would you do with 2 FT's? no money in the bank...

    1. FOMFF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Probably get zinch out. I like the look of Aurier, not 100% convinced on game time but great going forward. City can't keep a clean sheet anyway so an attacking switch makes sense. To me. I guess.

  30. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 10 months ago

    Benfica CS gone.

    1. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 months ago

      Darn. Lloris for me tomorrow then.
