It’s time to turn up the heat on Granville. After Harry Kane obliged with a 26-point armband return, I’ve clawed back the gap on my mancunian rival, who now sits just three points ahead in our “very personal” battle.

With the flame lit on our age-old duel, the ScoutCast is revived to resemble the days gone by, with Granville wriggling uncomfortably as we spar throughout. Jonty is on hand to mediate, taking a few blows of his own, with Granville lashing out blindly.

Around the melee, we take in another round of “rough with the smooth” and digest a slew of community questions. We chat Aguero Vs Kane, consider the merits of showing Sanchez and De Bruyne the door, and scribe our Christmas Fantasy Football wishlist.

This episode was first aired via our YouTube channel on Tuesday evening. You can view the unedited Google Hangout in the larger player below, or treat yourself to the buffed-up audio version via this link or the smaller player.

      Probably that order.

      Kane > Alex >kun out of those

        Reckon Kane may be a bit of a red Herring this weekend tho. ..

        Travelling all that way got to have an impact and Chelsea seem to have a bit of form....

        Thinking Sanchez at moment.....

    3. Will - Fantasy Football Hub

      Think you have to go for Kun if you have him

      Sanchez is a doubt for this GW

    6. Flynniesta
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      Have the top 2 & if I had the third they'd still be in that order. I'm with Sess (c).

  2. Egg noodle

    Is Dier completely nailed on?

    1. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      Yes but Toby is a better shout.

    2. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      That's my understanding

    3. The Hound

            Yeah I saw that... I was quite shocked to be honest.

  5. Ayew Serious
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 29 days ago

    Can anyone explain to me what "nailed on" actually means, like how strict is it?

    1. Just A Hat
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      I take it to believe that they will playing every game, barring injury, like Sanchez/Ozil for Arsenal, Pelle for Saints etc.

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        This is how I see it, but I see some people calling every other players nailed

    2. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      A player who is less likely to get rotated and if he is it will be a huge shock. (Example would be someone like Lukaku or Kane)

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        Yes, I agree

    3. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusβ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      Agony, vinegar, and a horrible death.

        2. ​
          • 12 Years

          I think he did but his claims are dubious

          1. Ayew Serious
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 29 days ago

            I'll allow it

    6. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      A player that doesn't have any particular competition for his place in the team

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        So would you say Pelle is nailed or does the competition have to be stronger than what Long offers

        1. Odikostar
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 29 days ago

          Long won't play over Pelle unless he's injured or needs a rest, so yeah, nailed

    7. Diva
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      I would define it as "a player who is expected to be in the starting 11 each week if free of injury and suspension".

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        Of course you are

        What would you do if I told you that Sanchez's performance in the Champions League was the only thing stopping me captaining a player who wasn't once 5.0

        1. ​
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 29 days ago

          If you're talking about Kane and his price last year, everyone's price has got to start somewhere. IMO he's a good pick nowadays and will probably be my VC.

          1. Ayew Serious
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 29 days ago

            I'm not talking about Kane, I'm talking about the third highest scoring forward

            1. ​
              • 12 Years
              10 years, 29 days ago

              Will you excuse me a lol? If you cap him and he scores at least 8, I'll grav up until Aguero's next brace.

    11. Zasa

      Vardy for sure, he's due. Essential, coverage,

    Riyad Mahrez skills.

    Nice touch and I quite like his dribbling...

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      I love The Mahrez dribble

    2. Pariße
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      I wonder why guys with so much skills like them never really succeeded as pros. Clearly they're more technically gifted than professionals, but what's the reason for them not making it, when some technically inferior players do.

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        There is so much more to being a pro footballer than technique. Knowing how to play without the ball is equally important, having the determination to improve your weaknesses and knowing how to come up with stuff like chat sh1t get banged.

      2. Super Tim Cahill
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        Technique is more than just fancy dribbling. In fact that's the least of it. End product is the key

    2. Hy liverpool

    Sanchez, KDB, Kane, Ozil, Lukaku..

    Best Capt choice..
    RMT is telling me KDB followed by Ozil.
    Haven't seen any of those being touted for the Armband on here.

    1. Batchain
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      I'm going with Lukaku (bou).

  13. Deep Sea Amphipod
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 29 days ago

    I've been toying. Thoughts on this move?

    Mane & Vardy -> Ozil & Lukaku (-4)?

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      I don't like it
      mané vs city without kompany/hart +villa next
      Vardy ...... you know

      1. Deep Sea Amphipod
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        Yep. I know πŸ˜›

        I can't remember being this unsure on what to do in a while.

    2. Batchain
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      Yes

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      I'm thinking Mane + Vardy > Kane + Ozil -4.

      I want rid of Mane. He's been awful FPL wise.

    Thought to spice up the forum. Coloured font on usernames for members who link their teams based on HOF ranking. Maybe Top 100 (gold), top 1000 (silver), top 5000 (bronze). Or badges of honour next to username for achieving a variety of accolades (a top 1000 finish/a top 10000 finish/multiple top 10000 finishes/consecutive top 10000 finishes etc) It would be like Scouts but better (no pun intended)

    Is it too clever to be looking at Ramsey over Ozil?
    Is anyone mentioning him?

    The numbers he was posting pre injury were so ridiculous he stuck around in the top 5 goal threat mids and he wasn't even playing for 3 games.

    My feeling is that a firing Ramsey > the steady returns of Ozil.
    And that picking him early could pay off

    1. Deep Sea Amphipod
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      At this point I'd say so. The stats may have been great but his returns pre-injury weren't.

    2. Greenbackbøøg…

      Ramsey was disappointing when he was playing this season though

    GW 14:

    Butland
    Alderweireld, Kolarov, Monreal
    Sánchez, Barkley, Mané, Lanzini
    Kane(c), Lukaku(vc), Vardy

    Gomes; Wijnaldum, Souaré, Williams … 0, 4.5 ITB, TC: 101.3, SV: 103.4

    1. Davido989

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        That isn't how Kolarov works. You have to play him regardless, or sell him completely.

        Also Palace fell apart last weekend.

    5. Diva
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      Interesting that you prefer Mané to Wijnaldum. Is that because Kompany is missing? If so, why Kolarov over Soaré?

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years

        Mané's stats are fine, for now. I foresee a turnaround at Saints.

    10 years, 29 days ago

    1) Kdb and Pelle - Ozil and Aguero -4

    2) Kdb and Pelle - Ozil and Kane -4

    3) go for 1 of these transfers

        1. Kun Tozser
          • 10 Years

          Tricky then, maybe short term well until Silva is back as Kane is in fine form

  23. Kun Tozser
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 29 days ago

    How am I looking for this week?

    Lloris
    Moreno Alderweireld Kolarov
    Mahrez Firmino Deulofeu Özil
    Agüero Vardy Kane (c)

    Subs: Begovic Nyom Tadic Dawson

    1. Diva
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 29 days ago

      You're hoping Firmino starts but otherwise OK. I might be tempted to start Nyom.

      1. Kun Tozser
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 29 days ago

        Start Nyom over whom?

        Firmino will start, doubt he'll get 90 though which I'm happy with

        1. Diva
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 29 days ago

          While the performance in thenlast game supports your assertion, the evidence of the previous two home games makes it less clear cut.

          Up to you. Depends on whether you could ever bring yourself to bench Kolarov or whether you really want to double up on the Spurs defence.

        2. Diva
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 29 days ago

          Just to clarify, I meant the last two Premier League home games. And if Coutinho is out I suspect he's likely to start.

      2. Hy liverpool
        • 12 Years

          • 12 Years

          Hart and Kompany injured is a massive blow to Citys defense. Spurs have a nice run of fixtures. I have Rose and he had been very attacking since when I got him GW 10. But Toby is a good pick too.

          1. It’s gonna Ben Mee

    SCOUT PICKS CHALLENGE - GW13 RESULTS

    For those asking, I've checked and indeed GW11 bonus points were added on as per the post; http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/11764688 (Only Seb10 was eligible!)

    ***** SCORES ON THE BOARD *****

    1st - Kopite65 (83pts) [3pts]
    Top 4% - Arvin-ation (72pts), OgHash (71pts) [2pts]
    Top 10% - The Fantastic Mr Fox (70pts), IanP1970 (69pts), Nivz, Jazziihd (68pts), Torres Love, Hearts of Olofinjana (66pts) [1pt]

    with SH@KTIMAAN, Barry Woj and Reedy closeby with 64pts!

    Got to say, I'm not sure I've ever seen such a commanding lead in this competition, well done to Kopite scoring a mammoth score!

    While the FFS Scout Picks had a shocker, the Differentials were Aguero, Eriksen and Joshua King (ouch!) - scoring a combined total of 72 points. Therefore only Kopite65 was eligible for a bonus.

    The top three haven't changed, but Mr.Robot and Dusan will be looking heavily over their shoulders as Kopite65, IanP1970 and Hearts of Olofinjana have all got themselves up to 9 points now! Looks like the race for the top spot will start heating up very shortly...

    1st - Balders (13pts)
    2nd - Mr.Robot (10pts)
    3rd - Dusan Citizen (9pts)

      Thanks for organising this OC. It certainly is a bit of fun.

      You can't accuse me of taking this lightly but I think you may have made an error in GW11. Either that or I haven't understood how to calculate the bonus point. According to my calculations, in GW11 the scout picks including differentials totalled 61 points not 68, so there should have been more bonus points.

        I've just had a look at the spreadsheet from that GW to double check! From what I have the Picks scored 52 with the following team;

        Howard
        Janmaat Dier van Dijk Kolarov
        Sanchez Mane de Bruyne
        Bony Lukaku Kane

        Plus the differentials that GW were Giroud (6), Dembele (9) and Schlupp (1), which is 68?
        Let me know if there's something I missed, want to make sure I'm not missing out on anything!

          By differentials you mean the differentials article, not the subs!

          Sorry, I thought it meant the subs!

      Probably best to do it now. Williams dropping in price tonight it seems.
