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.

    Is Janmaat nailed on ? Im really considering getting him for Digne and pumping money to midfeild

    - 3 cs and 1 assist in last 3 pl games

    - Decent fixtures. Plays (nor BUR sou CPL) in 4 of next 6.

    - Playing Wingback

    - Bargain price of 4.3

    Only concern against him is rotation

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Started 4 in a row and get returns 3 times. I'd take my chances for 4.3

    Auba + Ota -> Robbo + Vards?

    Cheers

      2FT then yes.

      Auba set to punish sellers this weekend. He has never blanked 4 GWs in a row since joining Arsenal!

      1. Party time
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Could break his own record of successive blanks

        1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Doubt it

          1. Party time
            6 years, 8 months ago

            His blank is sustainable, ya know 😉

            1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 8 months ago

              I'm getting rid if he gets a 4th blank. But I think he scores

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Yay

  3. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    So who is getting in Jesus 😀

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Aguero will start this weekend so dont

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Good to know. Kun tc confirmed.

        1. De Gea is GOAT
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          for real disturbed?? :O

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Not tc but I will cap kun. Think he will start against sou this gw and liv next gw. With jesus starting midweek against atalanta. Will be brutal for the OR if Im wrong but might as well go with the gut.

            1. De Gea is GOAT
              • 9 Years
              6 years, 8 months ago

              Yeah i agree with your reasoning. I took him out for Raz this morning so let's hope you're wrong mate haha. GL

              1. SpaceCadet
                • 12 Years
                6 years, 8 months ago

                That's the safe move. I was also considering dumping him for raz for a hit but decided to take a chance for one more gw. With so many people selling could be a good differential. Or not!

  4. sunzip14

    6 years, 8 months ago

    Am I gtg? Sensible to save a FT? 1.2 itb.

    Roberto
    Tomori, Montoya, Diop
    KDB, Sterling, Martial, Mount
    Vardy, (K)un, Tammy

    Button, Soyuncu, Rico, Saka

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Captain raz if you have both..rested last night

      1. sunzip14
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Safer pick, I agree. Looking for a parting gift from Kun. If we knew both would start, who would be your pick?

        1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
          • 8 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Still Raz for me

          1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Fully rested for the weekend, and looked deadly last weekend.

          2. sunzip14
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Interesting. Maybe solving this will keep me busy for the next 3 days. Ultimately ending up with the wrong choice of course 😀

            1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
              • 8 Years
              6 years, 8 months ago

              I'm glad Raz is my only captain option this weekend

              1. sunzip14
                • 9 Years
                6 years, 8 months ago

                I invited this trouble myself by doing Kane>(K)un -4 gw10 lol. Also, play double WHU defense against NEW at home or play Soy against Palace away?

      2. Eze Really?
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        I don't know the teamsheets apart from Kun and Jesus.
        Sterling not playing? Never can be sure but he is a must for captaincy this week.

  5. Eze Really?
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    I am no lover of broadcasters trying to get brownie point over race issues; where they harp on about rubbish and you wait to find out what is happening, such as football results.
    However, I think it absolutely disgusting how EUFA can give a stadium ban of one game effectively. Bulgaria should be kicked out of all competitions for 4 years.
    It was so obvious it was staged and the Ultras and others were working together.
    A good reason why the UK wants Brexit; to keep those thugs out.
    SHAME ON YOU EUFA!!!!

    1. Murder On Zidanesfloor
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Tweeting this would be more helpful than posting it here though

      1. Eze Really?
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        It took me 5 years to learn how to use this site, never mind tweeting that has its own monsters. Maybe someone who knows how to do it can do it for me.

    2. Oi! Shadders!

      Mods, please delete this. I don't want to read yet more garbage from Brexiters when I visit this site.
      This country has plenty of 'thugs' of its own, so it's by no means unique to mainland Europe. Implying that we should keep Bulgarians and other 'thugs' out of Britain is more of the same racism that the poster claims to oppose.

      1. Clump
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        He'll be furious when he finds out the very thugs he describes flock around the xenophobic brexit message.
        Needs to give his head a wobble.

      2. Eze Really?
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        It seems i upset a few people and there was no intention doing so.
        Firstly I don't agree with Brexit. I was trying to say (badly) that what happened in Bulgaria was a disgrace and The country does not want the people who do this in their place.
        Secondly, If such behavior became organised anywhere, including the UK the same heavy punishment should apply.
        Thirdly, it was the wrong forum. For that I apologize.
        I am sick of broadcasters trying to get brownie points but on this occasion, EUFA should be ashamed of themselves.
        Sorry if I upset anyone other than racists.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Apologies for misinterpreting your first message so badly. I can see now what you were getting at.

    3. bigbudgie
      • 11 Years

      As if there aren't right wing thugs in the UK...

      I'm going to freeze this thread - I see your apology below and that you didn't intend any harm!

  6. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Transfers made, good to go? Bench correct?

    Roberto
    TAA Robbo Soyuncu Lundstram
    Salah Sterling(C) KDB Mount
    Vardy Abraham

    (4.0 Rico Cantwell Greenwood)

    1. sunzip14
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Cantwell ahead of Rico maybe? otherwise gtg.

      1. Party time
        6 years, 8 months ago

        😆 Cantwell lost his place already. The Cantwell ship is already beneath the Ocean bed

    2. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years

      Thanks guys

  7. JariL
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Bench one of:

    A) Jimenez (ars)
    B) Pukki (bha)
    C) Connolly (NOR)

    The more I think about it the tougher it gets. I can see an argumenr for all options.

  8. andres
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    SO how to get more city... Really want sterling but so hard to get him with the current set up.

        Thanks. Any preference for the budget striker?

        1. Party time
          6 years, 8 months ago

          If b then maupay for me

          1. andres
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Despite fixture turn and some inevitable benchings?

            1. Party time
              6 years, 8 months ago

              Maupay is nailed, Maybe biased although got him since gw 5 & can't complain tbh

  9. SomeoneKnows
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Pope
    TAA, Otamendi, Lunsdtram (Soyuncu, Rico)
    Salah, KDB, Mount, McGinn (Cantwell)
    Auba, Vardy, Abraham

    Auba + McGinn > Rashford + DSilva (-4)
    Yes or No?

  10. AC Yew
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Salah to Sterling for this week? Got 2 FT

  11. stu92
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    I currently have KDB, who is best to play with him - Bilva or Dilva? Don’t watch enough City to know whether one gets rotated more than the other etc.

    1. JonP
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Dilva over Bilva

    2. andres
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      D

  12. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    For those looking to downgrade Sterling at any point just take a look at this fact 😉

    Goals and assists in 2019.

    1. Raheem Sterling 53
    2. Lionel Messi 51
    3. Robert Lewandowski 47
    4. Kylian Mbappe 43
    5. Sergio Aguero 41

    I dont care what the fixture is he is a season keeper. Can score against any team in the form he is in 2019

    1. Poseidon.
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Agreed. Will be my only City I think from GW13 - would rather downgrade KDB

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Can always get him back with couple of FTs 😉

    3. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I feel this too!

  13. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    ota owners

    still selling after his good display last night ?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Keeping only because of 2 reasons:

      1) Have decent backup in Soyuncu and Pieters
      2) Want to upgrade him to Robertson, so going to wait for couple of weeks

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        ok thanks.

      2. Eze Really?
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        I said below, everyone with Ota has coverage and he could be in your team to your next WC. I have Rose since GW4 for that very reason.

    2. Karan_G14
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Holding for this week but 90% sure he won't start.

      1. Dennis System
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Rob Holding ?

    3. jtreble
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Defenders that can’t defend don’t work for me. Sold Ota.

  14. JonP
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Ok tough one....
    Aguero, Pukki, McGinn, Otamendi
    For
    Sterling, Vardy, Connolly, Lascelles

    Thoughts?

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      id keep aguero

      1. JonP
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Fair enough I was really trying to get in Vardy without losing city coverage

    2. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      A good call considering you are swapping Kun for Sterling.

      1. JonP
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah thanks. Guess it comes down to whether Vardy would outscore pukki and McGinn together.

  15. KendrickLlama
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Need help. Team is getting me nowhere
    0.7 ITB

    Pope McGovern
    TAA Tomori Soy Lundstram Diop
    Mount Sterling KDB McGinn Cantwell
    Kun C.Wilson Abraham

    THANKS

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Sell McGinn. Cantwell. Wilson. And Kun at a push
      -8 would sort it out

  16. rodragon
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Aguero+ digne to Soy+jiminez
    Or
    Aguero+cantwell to jiminez+kdb(bench digne)
    Or
    Digne+cantwell to Rico+martial (won't get kdb tho)
    Thanks!..

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Have you got sterling?
      If so. Then B

  17. RLew
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Any ideas what to do with this?

    Pope
    TAA Digne Lundstram
    Mane Sterling KDB Maddison
    Abraham Pukki King

    Button Tomori Rico Dendoncker
    2FT 0.0ITB

    I hate to waste a transfer, but I’m inclined to do nothing rather than make a sideways move. The only option I see is raising cash from Pukki and Digne transfers, then upgrading Dendoncker (-4) and going 3-5-2.

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I would sell Pukki and king. Dinge too.
      There are ways to improve your team. It’s not perfect

      Get in the likes of Vardy. Connolly and soy

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Maddison to Tielemans to raise much needed cash to upgrade your poor forwards.

      2. RLew
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks! Soy for Digne is one I’ve been considering for a while. Makes sense.

  18. Karan_G14
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Pope
    TAA - Lundy - Otamendi
    Sterling - Mane - KDB - Mount
    Vardy - Abraham - Connolly

    (4.0 - Tomori - Cantwell - Rico)

    -4 hit taken to get Vardy & Connolly for Wilson & Pukki. G2G?

    Otamendi & Cantwell will go next week for Soyuncu/4.5m & 6.5m mid.

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Doubt Otamendi will start

    2. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I have Rose and wanted rid of him since GW4. I think Ota can easily be the same type of problem. Tomori and Rico will always cover him but maybe get rid so your Citeh choices are greater.

  19. Eze Really?
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    With Matip out for 2 months is it worth a Gomez gamble?
    Nothing at 5.2 comes close to him if he recovers form with gametime. He fills in for TAA rest too.

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I’m waiting to see who takes their place in defence.

      1. Eze Really?
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Klopp has said Gomez must up his game.

        1. Whats the Huth
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Doesn’t sound positive then

          1. Eze Really?
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Agreed but Klopp choices are limited. Klopp also said moving fro the middle to the flanks has not helped him.

            1. Whats the Huth
              • 10 Years
              6 years, 8 months ago

              Milner might start in defence?

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Milner fills in for Trent too. Gomez and Lovren will likely rotate based on opponent

  20. TokyoRisingSun
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on this team?

    Ryan. Button.
    TAA. Dunk. Lundstram. Rico. Kelly.
    Sterling. KDB. Maddison. CHO. Cantwell.
    Auba. Vardy. Abraham.

    1. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      WC or tfrs?

    2. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Auba. Cho. Cantwell. Kelly. Are your weak links.

      Auba to Connolly.
      Cantwell to mane.
      Kelly to soy.
      Keep Cho for now. But if you can afford. Then Cho to Mount

  21. Henning
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    2ft and 0.8 in the bank
    Is this a good move or should i try to get rid off Greenwood?

    Dunk and Mings out for Chilwell and Janmaat?

    Pope

    TAA Dunk Lundstram

    Sterling KDB Maddison Mount Mane
    Vardy Abraham

    Button Rico Mings Greenwood

    1. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Janmaat will troll you I think

      1. Henning
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Maby, but cant decide what to do with my free transfers .
        Any sugestions?

        1. Eze Really?
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Use 1 only if you can

    2. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Sort out Mings and Greenwood

      1. Henning
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        With just 0.8 in the bank it could be hard to replace Greenwood without to many hits.

        1. Whats the Huth
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 8 months ago

          Mings to soy and Greenwood to Connolly
          Sorted

          1. Henning
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 8 months ago

            Thanx. And Still 0.3 in the bank.

            I maby go for it after tonight games.

  22. Whats the Huth
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 8 months ago

    Imagine if aguero owners sell for sterling.
    Then sterling is rested and aguero starts in some bizarre pep Roulette

      I think there's a little point to switch City's big guns unless someone gets injured. Have been on Sterling from the start and probably will until the end if he stays fit. You just have to ignore the massive bias towards the 'the flavor of the week' choice if it's the one you don't own.

        There’s no bias though.
        Sterling is more bikes than Aguero. Which is amazing. You would think aguero is nailed

    G2G?

    Pope
    TAA Lowton Lundstram
    KDB Mane Son Tiele Mount
    Vardy Abraham

    Button Wood Lascelles Rico

      Double Burnley is asking for trouble.

    2. Konstaapeli
      • 9 Years

      Interesting. No Sterling, Kun or Salah. You don't see teams like this here very often. Team looks good tho. Good luck.

    What do you think of this?
    Pope (Button)
    TAA Lund (Soy Kelly Rico)
    KDB Sterling Dilva Martial Mane
    Jimi Abraham (Conolly)

    No Vardy

      Slight template buster there.
      I quite like it.

        However. I can see that Jiménez allows you to have DSliva and Martial.

        I’d suggest Jiménez to Vardy and Martial to a 6.0 perhaps CHO

          Good point but I want to move away from the norm. I think Conolly can cover inevitable rotations at Citeh. Tnks for your comments.

      Looks good

      Who's the 3rd def?

        Probable rotation of Soy Kelly Rico

    Digne+cantwell+kun+Dendonker to rico+martial+kdb+Connolly?

    I KNOW, the Norwich game probably is giving everyone false hope about uniteds offensive output as the chelsea game did, BUT Rashford does look quite good right? Please talk me away from Pukki > Rash

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      I think it’s an upgrade to be honest.
      I prefer rash over Martial anyways

  27. _Gunner
    • 11 Years

    Wilson + Saka + Otamendi > Ayew + Martial + Mendy (-8)

    yes or no?

    Mount, Otamendi -> Martial, Dunk/Janmaat?

    1. Whats the Huth
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 8 months ago

      Not sure why you would sell mount for Martial?

      1. finnish92
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 8 months ago

        Because I need a differential and I already own Abraham.
        My other midfielder are Mane, Sterling, KDB and Maddison.

        1. Whats the Huth
          • 10 Years

          Nah. Keep Mount.

    Morning dzz, took a hit 2nd week running! Gtg? left with 0m itb

    Pope -- Heaton
    Taa Lundy Tomori -- Lascelles Rico
    Sterling Kdb Dilva Mount -- Cantwell
    Tammy Rashford Vardy

    in terms of future plan, thinking of either
    - saving next gw (despite triple city vs pool) and then do a mini WC to bring in Salah (at the expense of sterling or dilva/vardy > salah/greenwood) OR

    - dilva > martial in gw12 and then WC for gw13 to bring in Salah and Robertson (and make cuts to rest of team i.e. getting ings/jimenez..downgrading sterling or vardy etc.)

    1. Eze Really?
      • 12 Years

      A lot of "forward" thinking. Maybe too much.
      I have the same 3 Citeh players and Sterling should be a season keeper.
      See my team above.
