Scoutcast discuss Aguero rotation and budget defences

The Scoutcast is back once again to cover the key discussion topics ahead of Gameweek 11.

David will be joined by Az and current FFS Mods and Cons joint-leader Andy Goddard this week.

The show will run from 20:00 GMT until 21:00 GMT. You can watch it on our YouTube channel.

Up first, the Scoutcast crew will reflect on a Gameweek 10 fraught with contrasting emotions.

Andy did exceptionally well – David and Az did not.

Then, moving forward into Gameweek 11, we will tackle the Manchester City rotation debate, how seriously to take Leicester’s recent form and whether budget defences are coming back into fashion once again.

    Otamendi to Cancelo this week or wait until next week and do Salah to Mane and Otamendi to Mendy?

    1. KingOllie

      Citys fixtures dont scream Clean sheets to me, probably dont need any of them

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        this

    2. JurgenRocks

      I don't know if any of the City defenders have got a solid starting spot atm, and City aren't as good as getting clean sheets this season. I will sell Otamendi for a defender from another team when I can.

    Best midfielder for up to 9.3?

    1. WWF
      • 6 Years

    Let's talk GW13 - which 3 pool combination are you going for?

    A) 2 Defenders and Salah
    B) 2 Defenders and Mane
    C) Sane and Mane and 1 Defender
    D) Other - Please say

    1. KingOllie
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      I do want Mane and Salah BUT i dont want to lose Sterling or KDB.

      So i will go Robbo / Trent / Salah

      I prefer Salah to Mane as hes traditionally good over Xmas period and penalties - i feel like i can captain him more

    2. Phlajo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Salah, Mané and TAA

      It's what I'm doing at least.

    3. WWF
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Robbo, Salah/Mane, Firmino

    4. _Gunner
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Robbo, Salah and Mane

    1. Phlajo
      • 5 Years

  5. Jullepuu

    Is Auba and McGinn to Sterling and Connolly for -4 worth it this week?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      any other city cover ??

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        KDB (and Otamendi)

    2. Phlajo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Will you be playing Conolly? I'm not sure he'll start.

      But I think Sterling will outscore Auba by 4 or more.

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 6 months ago

        Well Otamendi is in my starting line up but it's likely thay he doesn't play Connolly would be the first one on the bench and then Cantwell after him.

    3. KingOllie
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      yes if u captain sterling

      1. Jullepuu

    2. Phlajo

    Pope

    TAA Soy Rico Kelly Lund

    Mane KDB Mount McGinn Cantwell

    Vardy Kun Abraham

    Thinking:

    McGinn & Pope > Martial & Gazzaniga

    -4

    Have exact funds, worth it? Can't see where else I can raise the 0.2 for McGinn to Martial..

  8. JuulKrapuul
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 6 months ago

    Best option?
    A) Chillwell + Tielemans (12.9)
    B) Soyuncu + Martial (12.4)

  9. RedJive79

    Pope
    Cancelo / TAA / Tomori
    Mane / KDB (v) / Mount / Yarmo
    Kun (c) / Vardy / Pukki

    Pope*-Button
    TAA*-Tomori-Soy-Lunds-Rico
    Salah*-Sterling-KDB-Mount-Cantwell

    Hallers got to go

    Pope,TAA,Salah,Haller ---> Gazza,Mendy,Mane,Vardy (-4 over two weeks)
    OR

    1. KingOllie
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Dont think you need Vardy, doesnt fit your team structure

      A. I cant recomend Janmaat. He is a big troll for me. Injury/etc.

    2. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      A by quite a distance.

    Been keeping the TC armband on Kun since Sunday. I think I will leave it past the deadline. You have to take some risks here and there and knowing well it could spectacularly backfire, I am thrilled to go ahead with it.

    1. Zladan
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 6 months ago

      Another cameo like last week would be a nightmare.

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

        Indeed, but am languishing in 2M OR, awful start to the season. Could backfire though.

        1. Zladan
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 6 months ago

          I also own Aguero, and it’s a difficult situation. I will sell him after this fixture regardless.

          My rivals keep getting the captaincy right, which is annoying. KDB seems a safe shout again, and most I know will cap him so I’m not sure which to go for.

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

            I am going Kun. The moment you sell him is the time he starts to ban them in for fun. After Pool, most of his games are good. I don't consider Chelsea, United and Arsenal as tough matches, more so from a defensive point of view.

  17. Eze Really?

    I thought my side was sorted after a lot of head banging and listening to Vardy lovers.
    The man has always trolled me but moving forward I realized Getting Mane will hurt in transfers.
    Pope (Button)
    TAA Mendy Soy Rico Lund
    Sterling KDB Martial Mcginn (Cantwell)
    Vardy Firmino Abe
    I am also going to have a nightmare choosing defenders.

    Pope
    TAA-Otamendi-Rico-Lundatram
    Mane-Sterling-Mount

    Ryan-Lanzini-Lowton-Douglas Luiz

    Horrible memories of TC Sane on the DGW last year only to have him benched on the first fixture and be hauled off on 59 mins on the second for single pointer while ML rival TC Aguero and ended up with 50+ points. It was a season turning moment....

  20. arturoi

    Barnes for Pukki or King for Pukki?

    Have you uploaded the two scoutcasts to apple podcasts? Cant find them 🙁

    1. Jimbojunior
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Same here, not on apple

      1. merin

        4 years, 5 months ago

        It is quite annoying that the podcasts are not updated in time.
        especially the team news podcasts.

        Often times they're not available on apple podcasts until its too late to make team changes, because the deadline has already passed 🙁

    So does Son get his 3 points back now?
