The ScoutCast – Episode 182 – Hollow

So I did it. After a couple of weeks attempting to resist Sergio Aguero and, despite meticulously constructing a convincing case to avoid him, I went back on my word.

Recovering from the dramatic climb-down, I felt rather hollow heading into this ScoutCast, with Jonty, Andy and Luke all too keen to watch on while I tucked into humble pie.

Not surprisingly, I spend a good part of this episode justifying the back tracking, before I join my co-hosts in offering views on another bout of community questions. We discuss the Lukaku exit plans, Ozil vs Sanchez and contemplate options between the sticks with Jack Butland losing his shine.

Then we move on to the Gameweek preview, as I desperately try to find some joy in pondering which mid-price defender to sign heading into Saturday’s deadline. Sigh.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first aired live on Wednesday evening via our YouTube channel.

You can view the full version via the larger player below, or soak up the more refined audio version via this link or the smaller player.

NB: apologies in advance for Luke’s sound quality. We discovered a technical problem after the recording was completed. If you’re struggling to decipher what he’s saying, just imagine him agreeing with everything I say.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

        The price of fans demanding ever more expensive players with greedy agents and ludicrous wage demands.

        Football needs to start paying on a performance basis. If players win games then get the full wage, otherwise it should be much lower.
        It might stop a few just ambling about playing out their vast contracts.

              Oh, if you have Kane, go Kane. On the road, Watford have been a bit of a mess and Kane is on FIRE. Spurs scoring plenty of goals too. Apparently the referee is prone to giving away lots of penalties too

      In case Lukaku is fit:

      Is it crazy to use bench boost in GW27? My only blanks are Aguero and Wijnaldum who I can transfer to Vardy and Mahrez.

      Would leave me with
      Butland(AVL) Forster(CHE)
      Toby(SWA) Bellerin(mun) Cresswell(SUN) Simpson(NOR) Daniels (wat)
      Ozil(mun) Sanchez(mun) Payet(SUN) Alli(SWA) Mahrez(NOR) Kane(SWA) Vardy(NOR) Ighalo(BOU)

      Would still just have enough to get Aguero back for Ighalo. Thoughts on the idea?

      So, the chance to directly swap Mahrez -> Sanchez has gone.

      I hope it's a correct decision to keep 1FT and play this team.

      Butland - (Hennessey)
      Toby - Bellerin - Moreno - (Dawson - Simpson)
      Ozil - Payet - Alli - Firmino (Mahrez)

        Bad luck. Sorry to hear.

        I've bought tickets from around the stadium coming from London, it's rare you find two tickets seating together so if you are prepare to watch the game not with your mate then maybe you have a chance. Worst case there's the pubs around great atmosphere.

        Oh one more things a few fans will be leaving the stadium at 77th mins in protest agains tickets price increase - funny enough so you may be able to ask someone to give you his ticket!

      Open to a short term punt involving Vardy or Payet...Wijnaldum/Austin/Paloschi or others you recommend? Lloris>Forster maybe? Was planning to ship Ozil after this gameweek but he and Sanchez both looked very dangerous against saints....double up a gd idea for longer term?

                  well yes and no, I have players like Firmino, Kolarov, Ivanovic but I could/should/would happily have players like Ayew, Daniels and Simpson instead. All I'm saying is if I had the original 100m (or if someone new started from this point) it wouldn't be a problem putting a competitive team together. I reckon I could have a decent team for 85m tbh,
