Scoutcast discusses changing of the captaincy guard

Joe is joined by Karam and Tom from Who Got the Assist? for the latest episode of the Scoutcast tonight.

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

As the Champions League is back on our screens, this episode will overlap with the European action and we will try to bring you regular updates from Manchester City and Tottenham’s matches.

Episode 303 marks a slight changing of the guard when it comes to the captaincy.

After a rotation of Liveprool and Manchester City players in the early rounds of the season, Arsenal are starting to creep into the equation some more.

What impact this should have on our transfers and armband decisions will be the task of Joe, Karam and Tom tonight.

After some impressive statistics in recent weeks, Riyad Mahrez (£8.5m) commands some of our time as we discuss if he’s worth signing.

There will also be time to have a weekly look at how defenders are getting on at both ends of the spectrum as well as the success of assets from newly-promoted teams.

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        He’s done his job.

    Salah & KDB -> Sterling & Mahrez confirmed

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Reckon it’s worth losing Salah? I’ve contemplated the same moves bud

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        I'll wildcard as soon as KDB is back probably, was thinking of doing an IB wildcard anyway...of course Salah could tear Leicester a new one but oh well

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          That’s fair enough if got the WC still, i however have not.
          It’s a toughie that’s for sure. Suppose i trust Salah more.

          1. SADIO SANÉ
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 6 months ago

            yeah it's not an easy one at all, doesn't help that whenever I play safe I seem to get punished and whenever I take risks I get punished 😀 but whatever, it's a game

            1. Salah’s Sonnet
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 6 months ago

              Haha very true, luck has to change at some point bud

    2. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Not for me

      1. SADIO SANÉ
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        ok

  6. Epic Fail
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Mahrez potential injury.

  7. Firminooooo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Son to Sterling -16?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Say what now?

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Only costs -4 at the most.

    Bottomed:

    Anyone know what are the chances of Chambers starting for Arsenal next few games?

    Failing that it's Rico for me, only got 4.4m to spend and already own Kelly, Lundstrom and Guilbert

    1. WOLVERiNES
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      He will most likely start the next game vs BOU (H). rest depends on Bellerin's fitness to start, he's first choice.
      Chambers may also get the nod at CB, you never know.

      1. Gorky
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers mate. Appreciate that.

  9. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Blatant penalty for Bayern.

    1. Pariße
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I’m amazed how they didn’t give it. The clearest of fouls.

  10. Brosstan

    4 years, 6 months ago

    Im taking out Salah for Sterling. Tired of not owning him and seeing owners getting jammy points every week even when he doesnt play

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      So tempted.....it’s just.....Salah! I dunno if i can do it.

    2. fc_skrald
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Think you will be happier owning both Sterling and Salah

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Indeed, which i did do, but how?

        Pope
        TAA - Ota - Lund
        Mount - KDB - Salah - Son
        Puki - Auba - Abraham

  11. DAZZ
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    People actually sold sterling a few weeks ago

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      They were surely joking.

      1. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Net transfers -500K over the past 2 gameweeks, they weren’t joking 🙂

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      They were right to do so? He blanked a fair bit didn’t he? Now seems a good time to jump back on though

    3. Maddamotha
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      They expect to get returns every week.

    4. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Worked out for me. Sold for Son 2 weeks ago.

  12. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Dele off Lucas on

  13. Woy_is_back
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Give Kun some rest now PEP

  14. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Kdb to sterling for a hit ?

    1. mdm
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Yes

  15. Epic Fail
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Pep yellow.

  16. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Pep YC

  17. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Alli with another absolutely dire display. Ship him back to MK Dons..

  18. Ze_Austin
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Guardiola is actually the only card magnet in the City squad 😀

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      If Pep’s a magnet, what’s Otamendi? 😉

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Ah yes. Pardon me

  19. Maddamotha
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Kun big miss, straight on the goalkeeper. Jesus bound to start.

    1. Am sorry to say again it�…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Aguero will start vs Wolves

      1. Maddamotha
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Probably. Just playing.

  20. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Sterling (C) close to locked-in!

  21. Runaway
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    I was planning to save FT and bring Auba @ GW9. With KDB injury, does it make sense to do it a week earlier it for a -4. Basically:

    A) KDB + Haller > Auba + Yarmolenko

    B) Play Cantwell and roll FT

    1. WOLVERiNES
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Depends on the rest of your team. But I'd suggest to hold off at least until you know the extent of KDB injury. Cantwell has a good home fixture this GW.

  22. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Salah to tear it up tomorrow too?

  23. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Kun down

  24. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Kun hurt

  25. Epic Fail
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Aguero sighting.

  26. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Same problem Pep said Kun had at the weekend?

  27. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    KDB won't play at the weekend?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I think it's unlikely, right before the International Break.

  28. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Sterling looking like he is begging for the armband this weekend

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      He needs to, given how much he's let me down this far 😀

  29. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Son out on his feet.

  30. TheDragon
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Sterling (c) - lock it in now
