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.

    Chelsea’s kit is too heavy .... sapping all their energy.

      6 years, 10 days ago

      😀

    Just goes to show how getting the ref to have a look at the monitor makes VAR so much better in every way.

      Bizarre how much of a pig's ear the PL have made of VAR.

    Chelsea?
    Red?
    Down 3?

    Should have worn our potentially leaked 3rd kit for next season...

      Is that some Gary cahill crystal palace tribute kit?

    2. Wonderful Wizard Hazard
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Yikes, not what I was hoping for today. That kit is atrocious!

  4. Niho992
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Mount is useless. One of the worst players i've ever seen

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      He'll be gutted.

      1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
        • 11 Years

        😆

    2. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Lots of running - zero end product.

      1. Niho992
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        Yup. He wasted about 10 attacks tonight.

    3. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Yeah, still a lot to learn and improve. A lot.

    3 defeats out of 3 for English teams in Champions league knockouts. City need a big performance tomorrow to avoid a 4th.

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      I think that sometimes the end-to-end nature of the PL means our top teams lose a little guile and cuteness. They don’t need to develop patience in their build up.

      1. how now brown cow
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        I think this year spurs and city are simply in decline and chelsea not there yet.

        Pool will get through.

    2. Niho992
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Liverpool will win CL again anyway.

      1. el polako
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        I hate spoilers.

    3. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Don't think that any of the EPL sides will win it.

  6. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
    • 11 Years

    Vidal so soon?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Wash’n’go

    2. CRO KLOPP
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Outhuro

  7. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Fat Frank at the wheel

  8. George Sillett
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Scott Talent but which e mail account ?

    1. CRO KLOPP
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Is that you Jarvish?

      1. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        Yes

  9. CRO KLOPP
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Bayern will go through on away goals

  10. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Bayern Munich.... Very impressive

    1. Niho992
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Nah. Chelsea is just average.

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        They certainly are but Bayern are a class act even someone like you must see that

        1. Niho992
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 10 days ago

          Only Lewa is world class there. Gnabry and Coman wouldnt made Liverpool bench.

          1. Gnu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            6 years, 10 days ago

            Great insight.

          2. CRO KLOPP
            • 8 Years
            6 years, 10 days ago

            No room there with Lovren and Minamoto

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Yep . Strong team.

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Genuinely impressed.

    4. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Its what an European GIANT looks like.

    Taa robbo boly.lascelles (stevens)
    Perez grealish traroe salah (kdb)

  13. Kiwi Don
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Is Alonso banned for Premier League or just next Champions League games?

    1. Niho992
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Neither. FA cup only.

    2. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      CL only

    3. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      CL only but Frank might ban him from playing altogether.

    4. ted mcnure
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      How quickly the whisper of an Alonsowagon turned into a bus replacement service...

    5. Kiwi Don
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Cheers guys.

  14. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    This was considered a poor Bayern team last season when Liverpool beat them.

    Weird one.

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Haters gonna hate, mate

    2. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      I dont think defensively they are all that.

      Blistering attack.

    3. El Presidente
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      They were playing very badly last year. Fact.

  15. Brosstan
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Alonso will be rested for CL. Makes him essential for PL again!

    1. JJeyy
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      last time he f'd up in champs league he was dropped from squad

      1. Brosstan
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        Surely Azpi is the one to get dropped

  16. WE ARE RANGERS
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Alonso or James (money no object)???

    1. WE ARE RANGERS
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Thanks, I have sent 100 pounds to everyone that replied. Watch our for the next question for your chance to earn money 🙂

  17. Je suis le chat
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    I reckon when a team wins by 3 goals or more in the first leg, they shouldn't bother with the second leg. Call it a knock out.

    1. Stormbringer22
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      😀

      1. Stormbringer22
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        Pool v Barca though

    2. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      You mean like last years semi-final, Barca just go through?

    3. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Liverpool say hi

    4. CRO KLOPP
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Barca would disagree

      1. Je suis le chat
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        They would agree methinks!

    5. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      100%, even if 3 up at HT in a final.

      1. Stormbringer22
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        That too

      2. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        A few bungs go a long way

    6. Brosstan
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      An impressive haul considering its Tuesday night

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        See u next Tuesday

  18. abaalan
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    What to do with auba and kdb?

    Could bench both but will be 20.0+ on the bench... only 2 blank gw players I have.
    Would obvs want to keep after this gw as well.

    1. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Keep, 100%, you're well set. Take a punt on a cheapie with a good fixture.

    2. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      You have answered your own question.
      You could do a punt, transferring one of them out just for one week, but that depends on the value you have tied up in them.

  19. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Man City to complete a PL quadruple tomorrow night?

    1. JJeyy
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      theyll draw 1st leg

    2. Niho992
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      They dont have chance vs Real Madrid anyway. Bunch of mental midgets

      1. Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        "Bunch of mental midgets"
        Strange little man.

        1. Niho992
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 10 days ago

          Obsessed one is back

          1. Syd.
            • 16 Years
            6 years, 10 days ago

            Which one is that?

            You get confused at times.

          2. Gnu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            6 years, 10 days ago

            I never left, we never do.

      2. Je suis le chat
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        Touch of the Willie Wonka about Pep.

      3. Threat Level Midnight
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 9 days ago

        Hows this working out

      4. Annie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 9 days ago

        Clueless

  20. Je suis le chat
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Imagine Klopp would like to get his big mitts on Aavies, would complement Trent nicely.

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      And Davis can defend unlike TAA

      1. Total Slotball
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        He can't. Just has more recovery pace to make up for his lack of positioning unlike Trent.

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 10 days ago

          Well getting back into position is certainly a help.

          1. Total Slotball
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 10 days ago

            His pace helps him get back like I just said.

            1. Brosstan
              • 11 Years
              6 years, 10 days ago

              Does it matter how he does it?... Only reason AWB is good at defending is his pace and tackling. His defensive positioning is terrible yet hes a good defender.

  21. Maddi Son
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Bayern's left back is an absolute monster. I never watch any Bundesliga games, but don't know how I haven't heard of him before.

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      Frightening stuff! Seems composed with his final ball too.

    2. Over Midwicket

    Going for Tammy punt over Jimenez,Sterling will be good differential soon too.

    1. El Presidente
      • 6 Years

      If he plays it could be gold

  23. Bobby Crush
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    I am frozen and cannot act:

    Pope
    TAA Lascelles, Holgate
    Mane Traore Dendonker Grealish
    Aguero Jimi Firmino
    ---
    Button, KDB (keeping), Lunds, Kiko
    2FT, empty pockets

    Aguero, Lunds need to go,, Traore also considered to make way for Wolves D

    What to do?
    Looking at Vardy, Pereira, Doherty, Ings

    1. Twisted Saltergater

      Yes Aguero + Lund > Vardy + Pereira

      Next GW Kiko > Boly maybe

      stumbled into a comedian novices conference here it seems

  24. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Fair play Bayern, absolutely different class compared to us today.

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      They have now lost 8 games at home.

      A big worry for their top 4 chances

      1. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        Sorry I can’t talk to plastic

        1. Syd.
          • 16 Years
          6 years, 10 days ago

          Looks like you have a lot in common with your team

          Lacking any class

    2. Bushwhacker
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      They're a great team. The Premier League really only has two capable CL teams right now to be fair, the rest of the teams are in transitional periods.

  25. Twisted Melon
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    A) Vardy, Fernandes and Gomez
    B) Ings, Mane and Saiss

    1. stu92
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      I like A as a differential

  26. stu92
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years

    Ryan
    TAA - Robbo - Lascelles - Williams
    Salah - Maddison - Traore
    Vardy - Ings - Jimi
    (Martin - Hayden - Lund - KDB)

    0.5ITB, 2FT

    Ryan & Williams > Pope & Taylor??

  27. WATERMELONS
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 10 days ago

    Are Chelsea still worth considering for the bournemouth fixture? Bourn been awful but I am now wholly confused about which chelsea asset to target... had Mount in mind

    1. ChickenTikkaMoSalah
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 10 days ago

      I’d get Tammy. I think Mount could be rested

  28. Mince n Tatties

    • 12 Years

    Anymore news on whether MCI will have a DGW in GW29?

    I'm bringing in Traore for GW28 and need to decide if it's DSilva or Fleck that goes

    Cheers!

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years

      No news

      From Ben:
      Likely enough that you should hold your FTs until after 5pm on Friday
      If there's no announcement before the GW28 deadline (7pm on Friday) then the chance of a DGW29 will plummet

      1. Mince n Tatties
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 10 days ago

        Yeah - won't be doing anything till friday

    Already have Soy from Leicester and McCarthy and Ings from Southampton;

    a) Pereira and Armstrong or
    b) Stephens and Barnes

    B is 1mil cheaper but thinking A is worth the extra money?

    Thinking about the chips is really tricky before the fixtures are announced and working off probabilities that teams go through the cup or not!

    Are people just planning to FH in 31 or hoping that Liverpool don't blank and being able to build a team (e.g. 3x Liv, 2-3x Wol, DCL, Pope, Rico)?
