Scoutcast crew debate whether to Wildcard after Double Gameweek 24

Fresh from, what was for many, a disastrous outcome of the Triple Captain, the Scoutcast are moving onto the next chip: the second Wildcard.

The Fantasy Premier League community has been debating the best time to press the overhaul button and we’ll bring you our thoughts tonight.

Join Joe, Az and Lee for the latest episode of the Scoutcast at 20:00 GMT on our YouTube channel.

The three pundits will give their views on the Wildcard as well as what to do with the injured Sadio Mané (£12.4m).

The Liverpool man, heavily backed for the Triple Captaincy in Double Gameweek 24, has already been ruled out of the game against West Ham and is a major doubt for Gameweek 25 too.

Is now the time to sell or hold Mané? Joe, Az and Lee will discuss that in some depth.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa and Leicester will be going head-to-head in their EFL Cup semi-final second leg so we will do our best to bring you updates from that game.

      Hmm. Definitely a spanner - unless you have two playing keepers etc.

      1. FPL Pillars
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I’ve got McCarthy and a non playing so I am ok but many here will be in a pickle

      Yay

    3. bench boost for every gamew…
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Not really. Mccarthy in goal plus double liv def and lascelles
      Grealish is the one that troubles me. But not really.

    Whoops - let’s try again

    Who else is going for Pukki from Kun in 28?

    1. Champions League Varane
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Me!

  11. how now brown cow

    Lundstram DGW incoming!!

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      John one match, Mo the other.

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      don't you mean Besic?

      1. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Besic will get sent off sooner or later.

  12. Wild Rover
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    He’s no Beckham

  13. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Maddison has been poor

  14. Now I'm Panicking
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Vardy keepers on the pitch!

  15. goriuanx
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Rodgers to be sacked within 18 months

    1. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Pearson returns.

    2. Klaren
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah sure...

      1. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Find me a Liverpool or Celtic fan who actually like and rate him. Horrible manager, horrible personality

        1. bench boost for every gamew…
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Never had more fun watching footie than in that slip season and he is a decent manager. Good in Swansea, one good in Liverpool and been brilliant in celtic. But cant defense, Just cannot.

  16. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Haven't watched. On this evidence... Keeping or selling Leicester assets?

  17. wulfrunian
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Mike Dean...

  18. Pukki Party
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Aston Villa didn't have a parade after championship promotion because the club only celebrates big trophies. Pitch invaded after reaching EFL cup final.

  19. Bury94
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    4 years, 3 months ago

    Well, Sheff Utd blank GW28. Lundstram is an easy sell if he doesn't play this weekend

    1. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      4 years, 3 months ago

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years

        • 14 Years

        1. goriuanx
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Not so bad then

          1. Syd.
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            But we will as Villa don’t stand a chance 😉

  21. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Selling Vardy was mistake...

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Most transferred out this week

    2. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      You think so? They aren't in a purple patch any more

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Perfect fixtures coming up

        1. how now brown cow
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          And ndidi back helps

    3. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Based on what?
      The team has fallen off the proverbial cliff

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        sold him because i thought that injury is worse and i thought he will have BGW.. ofc it's mistake i admit it..

        1. FPL_Crisis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          I also sold for Jiménez which im quite happy about

  22. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Still surprised Henderson rose this GW when this game was still to be played. Owners have a backup or PLAYING FH?

    1. Niho992
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I would rather have 0 points from GK than play FH in GW 28.

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      You've been here 8 years fella. You must know that most people don't really care about games to be played and things like that when it comes to transfers. Only us minority on here.

    3. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Misses 31 too - whenever that happens - come what may

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Pope backup!

        1. pingissimus
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Decent

          Actually wonder whether Pope might not be the smart call of the two if only one keeper

    4. Dr. Agabuse
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I guess i am playing 10

  23. Dr. Agabuse
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Blank for Villa Sheffield confirmed?

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      not yet, gotta wait for Crelllin

    3. Niho992
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      i dont know could they play in midweek ?

    4. kamdaraji
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      yes

  24. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Not sure about keeping Vardy v Chelsea?

    A Keep
    B Aguero-4
    C Aubameyang-4

    1. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Wow

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        A

    2. Concrete
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      C

  25. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Vardy(C) GW28 😎

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Ings? Norwich slightly better home than away.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Not for me

      2. Klaren
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        They play more open football at home though so arguably even better for strikers. Still a long time before GW28 though, a lot can change.

    2. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Pukki C you mean

  26. El Presidente
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    F****** Rodgers!!!

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Fredrick

  27. Pompel
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Really annoying this with SHU blank, as having only Lundy and wanted to get in extra defender or Hendo. Now point in that with GW28 blank now.

      1. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        THat's Rithcie? Think I'd look at Fernández perhaps

  28. Ibra
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Is VVD as good pick as Robbo? I would like to get Robbo but I can’t afford him.

    1. sovietrockettes
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      maybe even better

  29. Bury94
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Ben Crellin saying on Twitter that City vs Arsenal (presuming City reach the final) could move to GW25. Could have another DGW next week!

    1. goriuanx
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Damn, KDB TC would've been nice

    2. Niho992
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      i will have to activate WC in that case..

    3. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Wondered about this previously

      The option for City would otherwise be a potential TGW 37 if they progress in FA Cup.

      Time for Laporte

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

      Won't be surprised if he soon comes up with a theory which involves the game being played before this weekend.

    5. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      He should stick to the spreadsheets

    6. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      TC Aguerrrooooo!

  30. Champions League Varane
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Lol get rid of one of my 3 Sheffield assets?
