Yes, that’s right, crazy talk. There’s a lot of it about in this week’s ScoutCast episode – most of it originating from Mark’s chattering. Transfer in three defenders for a four point hit? Spend big money on Leighton Baines, dumping last season’s top Fantasy scorer? Has he finally lost the plot?

This is what an international break does to you. Suffering from cold turkey and with two free transfers burning away in the pocket, a Fantasy manager has to fight the jerky knee. In my own moment of madness, I even find myself trying to talk Mark out of his hasty moves.

Listen in on the lunacy, accompanied by the usual regulars, accompanied with another excavation of that Robin Van Persie assist – we just won’t let it lie.

    I'm thinking of making this team, taking a 8 point hit:

    Vorm (Al Habsi)
    Shawcross Simpson Kompany (Ferdinand Barnett)
    Silva VDV Ramsey Walters (Dyer)
    RVP Dzeko Adebayor

    What do you guys think?

          Don't think it's worth doing Ward --> Ferdinand to then bench Ferdinand (they're the same price I think?) So probably keep it to a 4 pt hit....

          Hm, could backfire given that VdV may not yet play and Rooney might do well, not sure it's worth 8 points - I'd be tempted just to do Bos to ShawX but then I play quite conservatively.

    Guys, would appreciate some advice on the following wildcard team:

    Howard Vorm
    Kompany Walker Wilkinson (Jones) (Simpson)
    Ramsey Silva Drenthe VDV (Sinclair)
    Bendtner RvP Adebayor

    0.2M in the bank

    Do you think I should stick to this team or change it? Further have I benched the right players?

      Jones is a lot of money to be benched so if you're not playing him away to swansea, don't think you need both Kompany and Jones ... maybe try Kompany --> Brown based on citys fixtures coming up

      That leaves you with around £2m in the bank for a rainy day to help upgrade to Rooney when you want him?

      You have done well to get a strong defense and still look good everywhere else on the field. Not too keen on Sinclair myself as it seems he relies on penalties in order to get points. Also not sure whether keeping Simpson is a good idea either with his fixtures and Newcastle's inevitable fall into mid table. Also is Walker really worth it?

        Appreciate the response guys, I was thinking along the same lines, I had Brown but decided to switch to Wilkinson and changed Enrique to Kompany.

        As it is a wilcard, I may switch Kompany back to Brown and just save the money for elsewhere. Kompany does have Newcastle and Norwich at home in the next 5 but also has Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal.

      A definate A from me - Rooney and RVP are the two most important and explosive players in the game. They are from teams who can score a lot of goals but individually they both have the fall back of penalties and are great captaincy options. Throw in the odd direct free-kick too and bonus points can follow their form.

      I'm sure others will put forward Silva, but he never seems a great captaincy option. Rather have Lampard (if you can muster the cash) for the reasons stated above.

      I would get in RvP and leave the rest. If VDV will deliver a nice game, bring him next week (for someone, maybe Bale). Suarez and Sturdge can bring you poinys, many people here have them. Džeko maight be rested.

    Who would you drop from the following forward line up?

    Lamp / VDV / Silva / Sess / Walters

    RvP / Sturidge / Klasnić

    I am thinking Klasnic or Sess, but the rule says: never bench a striker.

      I would probably bench Klasnic but its a tough one. Impressive front 8! You sticking with Sturridge for the next 2 Looser? I'm not convinced by him but he is v cheap and with Wolves coming up I'm reluctant to get rid!

        Yes, I stick with Sturidge until it will be clear who will be central striker in CHE. Or until someone else start scoring.... so far only RvP scores.

          It's not really SF, set in the (very?) near future on a ravaged Earth. Never find out if it's climate change, nuclear disaster etc that's caused it, but some of the stuff you'll read in there will stay with you for life. Haunting stuff. McCarthy's style of writing is masterful too.

    I'd like to see last season's Baines points in each game where Cahill played vs when he didn't.

    I seem to remember Baines only doing well when Cahill played and I'd only consider Baines if Cahill had a run without injury which seems unlikely at the moment.

    I was on Collins > McAuley for most of these 2 weeks. But I think the return of ShawX has me contemplating on Collins > Wilko, thereby doubling up on STO defence for the next 2 weeks. Plan is to get rid of ShawX in Gw14/15.

    Which one?
    A. You're insane, just stick to the more nailed-on option (McAuley)
    B. Ha, WBA barely keep a CS. Go for it! (Wilko)
    C. Don't you think a certain Vorm demands another def in your team? (Naylor/Rangel)
