Scoutcast crew discuss resurgent Man United and Leicester’s fixture-turn

There are a handful of issues for the Scoutcast crew to get through tonight.

You can join us on our YouTube channel from 20:00 GMT to 21:00 GMT but you can watch the latest episode back any time after that.

Joe will be joined by Az and Karam to discuss Manchester United’s new-look side, built around the in-form creative midfielder, and penalty-taking, Bruno Fernandes (£8.2m).

Meanwhile, a turn in the fixtures could mean a return to the headlines for Leicester options including Jamie Vardy (£9.7m), James Maddison (£7.4m) and Harvey Barnes (£6.0m).

After that, the tough decisions to make about life past Blank Gameweek 28 will be our talking point of the week.

      City vs Arsenal, if Arsenal are knocked out of Europa tomorrow
      or
      City vs Chelsea, if one or both of them win their FA Cup 5th round ties next week.

    Original plan was to do Lundstram > Saiss, but now Saiss's price went up last night.

    Lundstram >? max 4.4

      Asked a similar question not too long ago. Think with that price leaves you with:
      C. Taylor
      Lascelles

    Can someone explain to me why Barnes is so popular?

    He’s a good young player but his minutes don’t look certain...

    1. Robson-Canoe
      • 8 Years

      His first name is Harvey and he's the hero the FPL community needs right now.

        That helps so much. Can’t thank you enough

      He had a breakthrough performance a few GWs ago and his form has been fantastic. Drives forward, makes things happen and is involved in everything.

      I believe that he's been rested but you can't ignore form over minutes/fixtures (see Ings and DCL as recent examples).

    Isn't Grealish having a DW in a few weeks time? Why all the selling?

    Looking to use 1 of 2 FT this week, would you recommend any of these moves?

    1) Martial to Fernandes
    2) Sarr to Perez/Barnes
    3) Other suggestions

    Then next week plan is Firmino/Dunk to Auba/Gomez for free. Alternatively Vardy instead of Auba then upgrade midfield

    Guaita
    Trent Soy Dunk
    Salah Martial Traore Sarr*
    Firmino Jimenez Ings

    wouldn't touch leicester players with a barge pole,they've ruined my sun dream team I'm not letting them ruin my fpl team.

      • 11 Years
      4 years, 1 month ago

      Thought the same. But here I am with Maddison & Vardy. Surely they can turn up vs Norwich!

      One week punt anyway
