Scoutcast discusses Raul Jimenez, Man City rotation and the ‘template’

After a chastening weekend of football, the Scoutcast is back to reflect on all the key talking points from Gameweek 9.

You can watch it from 20:00 to 21:00 BST on our YouTube channel, or embedded in the article below.

Joe is joined by Fantasy Football Scout deputy editor Neale and special guest Karam, who has appeared on a handful of our videos already this season.

Currently positioned at 144k in the world, Karam has just deployed his Wildcard and will be discussing the make-up of his revamped Fantasy Premier League squad.

The trio above will be looking at the form and fixtures of Raul Jimenez (£7.1m), Manchester City rotation and the so-called ‘FPL template’, among other things.

There is also a differential for Joe to put forward, clean sheets, the community’s questions and a look at the Scoutcast crew’s Gameweek 10 plans.

With no-shows and auto-subs being the order of the weekend, we can expect the usual mix of sob stories and tales of jam in Rough with the Smooth.

    Levy you should've stumped up the money!

    Otamendi the real phenomena

    dybala with a 2 min brace

    This is why owning Sterling is important, yes he blanks now and again, as does every single other player in the league, but he can now and again explode with these performances, 2G 2A last season against Saints comes to mind.

    The way i’m looking at it, i can’t imagine Pep would rest him this weekend with this form. Would be ridiculous if so. Not impossible though knowing Pep

    1. jtreble
      • 7 Years

      Yup.

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years

      Sterling non-owners punished tonight!

    3. Epic Fail

      Pep has benched after a performance like this before.

    4. Ask Yourself
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Yeah I was saying he has a rank climbing haul in him very soon it’s just come at the wrong time

    5. F4L
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Silva was benched after a hat trick. Form doesn't mean much for Pep

    6. Fred54
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Won't play Veronica Zemanova every week.

      1. DA Minnion (Former great)
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Now that would be nice.

    7. dunas_dog

      With Mahrez playing full 90 also would think BSilva and Sterling play and Sterling rested in Caribou cup game midweek

    8. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Atalanta would struggle in the Championship.

    9. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      If you got him, play him but don't captain him I guess

    10. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      What if I havent owned him, wont own him for his benching in gw10 but will bring him in after that? Owners btfo

    11. Percy07
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Pep has been form killer this season. He rested player when they scored big and were in prime form. No ones know if he will continue to do so.

  5. Pedersen
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Ohh sterling my darling... How can you blank so many gws and then make hattrick in EU! ....

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Brexit

      1. Pedersen
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        True... Or at least they try...

  6. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years

    CR7 useless tonight?

  7. 1zverGGadeM
    • 7 Years

    Dybala single handedly turned the game for Juve

    And won me a $60 too 😀

  8. Ógie

    Nice rest for the weekend

  10. Team Cruel

    Foden red

    1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      League minutes for him now. Oh dear Dilva

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Foden doesn’t get minutes in the league

        1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Might now he wont get any in CL for a bit

  11. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    LOL

    1. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Very useful

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        Nice Grav.

        Says a lot.

  12. tucaoneo
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Nice chess move by Foden.

  13. Top Lad Dakes.
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Tammy Wilson Maddison to Ings Connolly Sterling isn’t worth a hit... or at all... right? 😆

    Got KDB, Mane, Kun as premiums

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Taking a hit after WC?

    2. Feed tha Sheep
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Madness

    3. Brosstan
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Looks horrible. If you want Sterling you have to sacrifice a premium, not several mid price options.

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years

    FodOFF

  15. TheSteel

    Foden red. Sterling 90min v Villa confirmed.

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      1. TheSteel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

    2. George Sillett
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Finger on the pulse.

  16. Ask Yourself
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Oh no sterling has to run double hard down the left now he hasn’t got Foden. Sterling owners getting a clockwork orange style torturing here

  17. Magic Zico
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Foden red

  18. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Hopefully Pep now will destroy Foden in the dressing room instead of Sterling for that sitter

  19. Poseidon.
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Foden is a thug. No place for that in the game

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      bet you wouldn’t say that to his face look at the size of him

  20. Botman and Robben
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    10 goals for England.

    1. Ha.
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      5 for England
      10 for PL

  21. have you seen cyan
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Lo Celso fouled twice within 1 minute of coming on llol

  22. Brosstan
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Lamela has 200 games for Spurs? what a waste of game time.

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Never took off I assumed he would immediately be sold had no idea he’d manage to clock up that many appearances

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      I dont think he is bad

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Surely you must mean he missed 200 Spurs games through injury

  23. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    10 long minutes of running for Kun & Sterling.

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Pep might have to start 10 men at this rate against Villa. Unlucky KDB owners

  24. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Should have got a De Roon if he wanted his shirt that badly

  25. Hy liverpool
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    And before we play vs spurs they win and 5-0...hope they back to their sh¡¡ty form on sunday

      I already have Foyth

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

  28. TAT
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Auba/Mount > Jiménez/Sterling (-4) worth it?

  29. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Mbappe hattie after coming off the bench

    1. Fred54

  30. Mr. Mystic
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 8 months ago

    Do we think Otamendi will start at weekend?

    1. Bouncebackability
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      That one I’m confident about

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 8 months ago

      Rodri pulled a hamstring so thats a yes

      1. DMP
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 8 months ago

        What about Stones? He was the first sub for Rodri, not Ota.

        1. Mr. Mystic
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 8 months ago

          Yes, I was thinking the same, but surely he’s not match fit?
