Strap yourself in for another bumper, Wildcard-powered ScoutCast. On the cusp of double Gameweeks, with multiple chips on standby, we’re braced for the big turning point in our seasons.

The expectation and excitement is palpable as Jonty and Andy drop in to review Gameweek 32, before feasting on a smorgasbord of questions served up by you, the community.

We tackle the Leicester/Spurs exit plans, consider Sanchez vs Ozil, contemplate selling the imperious Payet and run the rule over double Gameweek strikers. We pack that and more into 75-minutes, reserving energies for further double Gameweek casts to come.

This episode was first aired live on our YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe to get news of future live casts.

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

  1. Prison Mike
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    No bench boost available so who to play out of Lanzini and Iwobi in GW33 and GW34?

  2. Koflok
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hmm can't wait for next week.

    Downgrading Kane to Mitrovic or Martial should be fun.

  3. oghash
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Pardew:"All good news on injuries. Only one who might not feature is Adebayor. We'll assess tomorrow"

    I consider that food new if he can't play. Would like to see Gayle playing off Wickham.

  4. oghash
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Am I the only one that finds it odd the likes of kun and ozil have dropped recently?

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      KDB effect

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Ozil I get. Kun is surprising. Think it's mostly people with low TV selling for Lukaku. Or they don't realize he has a DGW soon

  5. C_G
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    REPOST, gtg?

    Robles

    VVD Simpson Delaney

    Lennon Sanchez Cout KDB

    Aguero martial Lukaku

    Bench - Darlow Payet Bellerin Sakho

    Will do Martial & Lennon----> Pelle & Iwobi for GW35, and will play 4 defenders.

    THANKS lads

  6. QGOONER
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Iwobi is a trap guys fyi...

    1. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Thinking the same will prob play vs west ham and then out for Ramsay

      1. QGOONER
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Iwobi's the better fit... Ramsey's still coming in later though.

  7. Rusty Nail
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    D-day is approaching still so many decisions

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A Barkley
      B Wickham
      C Stop being stupid

  8. samaael
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    sturridge going to start PL games?

    1. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Klopp hinted he will start vs stoke

      1. samaael
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        was this in latest press conference?

        1. Rusty Nail
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Someone posted his comment earlier can't mind what page if you search you will go find it

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      If I had to guess, I'd say yes

      1. samaael
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        thanks Swan. Looks worth a risk

        1. Rusty Nail
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          He was dropped tonight tho not rested apparently tactical reasons doubt he's happy could be bit of a fallout

  9. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on this WC. 33 punt on Bolasie then sell for Milner 34. 9 players 35 no GK

    DDG Robles
    Simpson Monreal Gabriel Delaney Daniels
    Antonio Sanchez KDB Lennon Bolasie
    Kun Kane Lukaku

  10. michudagawd
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    DDG Darlow
    Bellerin Gabriel Coleman Sakho Evans
    Sanchez Mahrez Coutinho Payet Bolasie
    Aguero Lukaku Martial

    How's this for a wildcard team?

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Maybe do Martial->Mitrovic and upgrade Evans? Otherwise, looks good.

      1. michudagawd
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Would like United attacking coverage though. Could just about afford Martial and Bolasie to Mitrovic and Mata. Would that look better you think?

        1. Rusty Nail
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          If I pick kdb over ozil I'll have no United attackers either not sure how I feel about don't think we will score many against palace so only leaves villa

  11. GinjaWhinja
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    It's so horrible to wave goodbye to that cash tied up in Mahrez - about 1 million.

    But I need to do it, Barkley is rising!!!

    1. oghash
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sounds like the title of a horror film.

      'Barkley is Rising!'

      1. GinjaWhinja
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Probably will turn out that way....

      2. Cheeseoid
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I would watch that

        1. oghash
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          lol, so would I

          1. Cheeseoid
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            It had better be better than Hanibal Rising and Mercury Rising

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No risers today. Only fallers

      1. GinjaWhinja
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Is your catchphrase "trust me, I'm lying"?

        1. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Vorm Siggy Afobe Ozil Doumbia all dropped 20 mins ago.

          No risers

  12. AdamJ91
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hi Chaps! Which of these WC's look the better option?

    A)
    Darlow I Robles
    Bellerin I Simpson I Smalling I Jagielka I Gabriel
    Sanchez I KDB I Firmino I Coutinho I Lanzini
    Aguero I Lukaku I Mitrovic

    B)

    Mignolet I Robles
    Monreal I Simpson I Smalling I Jagielka I Gabriel
    Sanchez I KDB I Payet I Coutinho I Bolasie
    Aguero I Lukaku I Rashford

    Thanks in advance.

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A for me

    2. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      close. both give you XI for gw 35?

      1. AdamJ91
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        A would, B wouldn't off the top of my head.

        I'd plan on doing Lukaku to Pelle vs Villa for GW35.

    3. Poison Apple
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      A for me

  13. samaael
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    If we're wildcarding now, how many FTs do we get until GW37?

    1. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      one per week if you dont use them

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      5

      1. Swan - Villa Proud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        SOrry, 4 til GW37.

        1. samaael
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          thanks again... thats what I was after

  14. Iinvin
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Anyone else haven't wildcarded yet and are going to take multiple hits to bring in dgw players?

    1. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I may take one. I'd like a ManU or Arsenal defender, but will probably end up hoping they concede.

    2. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'd be wary of dropping the likes of kane and mahrez for hits double game week or not. Depends who you dropping and who for

    3. F_Ivanovic
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I've spread my hits out over the past few weeks bringing players in who I think will do well enough that week to make the hits worthwhile. Last week I brought in Lanzini + Bellerin (for Alli + Smith) for a 4 point hit which worked out well!

      This week I'm not so confident. Took a 8 point hit to bring in Lukaku, Firmino and Moreno. (for Rondon, Siggy, Wolly) Lukaku will obv be worth it but unsure the Liverpool players will see a return this week.

      Next week will probably take another 4 point hit to give me 14DGW with only Kane as the non DGW player.

      1. Rusty Nail
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Done pretty well there i would say will more than likely come out on top with the hits

  15. Poison Apple
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Robbles /Darlow
    Bellerin/ Sakho/ Mangala/ Dann/ PVA
    Sanchez/ Ozil/ Coutinho/ Payet / Bolasie
    Aguero / Lukaku / Mitrovic

    GW34: Dann/ Bolasie -> Smalling / Lanzini or Lingard

    Gtg?

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Looks good

    2. Man Chest Hair United
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      darlow is a worry for me

      1. QGOONER
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I agree. Just using the eye test, he looks like a mediocre keeper

        1. Rusty Nail
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          20/20 vision?

          1. QGOONER
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Nah but there's a reason why he was Newcastle's 3rd choice GK

            1. money face bandwagon
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              u still get 2 points for his appearance. it doesnt matter. and no1 is expecting a cs anywy

  16. Man Chest Hair United
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts on this WC?

    DeGea, Robles

    Bellerin,Clichy,Sahko, Simpson, Soure
    KDB Sanchez Ozil Coutinho Lanzini
    Aguero MArtial Lukaku

    Worth keeping Clichy? or any other changes needed?

    1. Trae44
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Nice team

    2. Puntillimon
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      bringing in a keeper for gw35?

    3. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Team value 130M?

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah 2 ft and will grab courtouis for DeGea and vardy for martial perhaps to fiel 11 for 35.

        Team value was 111M

  17. Bggz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    so i can get a kick arse forward line if i decimate my defence. how many CSs are we expecting for the next three gws.

    Darlow - Robles

    Morgan - Gabriel - Bellerín - Delaney - Simpson

    De Bruyne - Lennon - Coutinho - Payet - Sánchez

    Kane - Agüero - Lukaku

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Looks fine except the goal keepers

      1. GuyIncognito
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Robles to the end isn't the worst option.

    2. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Faithful to the hurrikane props for that got to sacrifice defence tho looks pretty decent

  18. QGOONER
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Benching Wijnaldum because he hasn't scored away from home all season...

    Which means he'll score a brace and bag an assist

    1. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Will need to or Newcastle will be done

      1. QGOONER
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Can't see them going down. Too many good players

        1. Rusty Nail
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          The backline is shockingly poor which will eventually be their undoing.

          1. ILOVEBAPS
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Collocini is due back as is Dummet which will tighten them up.

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Don't see it but never know!

    3. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Same dilemma with Firmino's return. Alli or Ozil have to play I suppose.

      1. QGOONER
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I'd say that Firmino's starting. Don't see him scoring or assisting though

  19. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Who is more essential and necessary to have now?
    KDB or Payet?
    Can afford only one 🙁
    Please please please help!

    1. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      the million point question

    2. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'd say payet

    3. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      payet has a blank week and kdb dont have if that helps. better gw33 fixtures too

    4. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Is lanziñi worth getting in for payet?

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I did this to enable KDB and I am happy with the balance it provides

    5. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Kdb the risk out of the 2.

    6. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      100% need to have both

      It boils down to dropping Mahrez or Kane for me. Unforunately, Mahrez will have to go.

      Alternatively, I could drop Coutinho and Keep Both Kanhrez

      DDG Robbles

      Delaney - Gabriel - Jevans - Sakho - Fuchs

      Payet, Sanchez, Mahrez, Kdb, Lennon

      Aguero - Lukaku - Kane

      1. Whats the Mata?
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        The only way then is by dropping aguero :/

  20. money face bandwagon
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    firmino expected to start? played some minutes against dortmond..should be fit?

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes. Prob get 50-60 mins this GW.

  21. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Any info on why Collins has gone back to red flag? Can't find anything online. Thanks.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks much Shak. Not as bad as I thought so. But not likely to play 2 in 34 if just back What you think?

        1. Rusty Nail
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          He's not 1st choice anyhow it's Reid and ogbonna

          1. Albrightondknight
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Thanks had him awhile but have no WC so not loving idea of another hit. Thanks for reply.

  22. ILOVEBAPS
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    The dilemma...

    Kane & Mahrez
    Or
    Mitro & Kdb

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Once I sell it ain't so easy to get back.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I say take the risk and go for the dgw players.

      2. Rusty Nail
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I've resigned myself to losing kane and mahrez and it's looking like ozil/martial or kdb/mitrovic

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Was thinking Sturridge and antonio but get scared Sturridge might spit the dummy after being dropped against Dortmund.

        2. ILOVEBAPS
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Yep

          1. ILOVEBAPS
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Studge is interesting but just cannot trust Klopp. Wisely he is limiting his exertions but no good for fantasy game. Doesn't help his cause that Origi is a decent alternative to him.

      3. money face bandwagon
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        if u plan to hold kane n mahrez till end of season i believe they will outscore the latter over 6 games.

        if not might as well take adv of dgw34 to earn some points

        1. ILOVEBAPS
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Only really want Kane for 35 and too hard to know after that, depends where they are and how Lei are doing.

          1. money face bandwagon
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            yeah then i would go for dgw fever. i think dgw gives u a safety branket to make the swap

    2. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      In the same boat below

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years

      dgwers

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Easy to be blinded. I've done it before 🙁

    4. Shearer & Sutton
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I took that risky and sell Kane & Mahrez earlier today.
      I bought KDB & Mitrovic.

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Are you ok? Need a lie down?

        1. Shearer & Sutton
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Yep I'm ok. Only thinking GW35 and no Kane. This not good.

            Yeah. With KDB makes it hard to switch back too.

            1. Shearer & Sutton
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              No change get to back Kane.
              My next moves (GW35) are bring it players in who has DGW37.

              It's weird going any Lei&Spurs players rest of season.

    RMWCT

    Robles
    Koscielny / Ward / Simpson
    KDB / San(vc)hez / Lennon / Mahrez
    Kun / Kane / Lukaku (c)

    Mignolet / Payet / Sakho / Gabriel

    Feel i want / need to keep Kane, Mahrez & Simpson for this week and take a -8 ahead if the dgw to bring in, Mitrowicz, Coutinho or Firminho & Smalling.

    Thoughts & opinions please. Thanks guys.

      Seems silly to take a -8 straight after a WC. I'd ship Kane as it's likely a tight contest v MU.

      Why take hits ... just get them in now!

        9 years, 8 months ago

        The problem is i see mahrez and simpson scoring well against blunderland. Kane i agree with. Might just do him tomorrow. Cant belive im shipping him for Mitrowicz though

        1. ILOVEBAPS
          • 13 Years

          Yeah I get ya. Where is captain hindsight when you need him?!!

        +1

    Good move to play Barkley this week and then transfer to Ozil for 34?

    Only downside I see is it costs me a FT going into 35 ( on WC now ).

    Any advice?

    1. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I would go ozil now. Not so keen on Barkley.

        This ^

      2. Zoostation
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Will Ozil really outscore Barkley or even Bolasie though this week?

        1. AB.
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Maybe or maybe not - but personally I wouldn't be willing to gamble a transfer on it.

    2. Cheeseoid

      Sanchez is a lot more popular than Ozil right now

      1. Zoostation
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Does it change anything considering I have Sanchez?

        1. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Not Much! Arsenal are good because of their lack of a blank in 35. KDB could be another option?

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Not really. Go Ozil straight if you want to. But most are going Sanchez

    4. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years

      Not a bad idea go for it. Gareth Barry back so Barkley will be pushed further forward could get some points

    no love for rashford?

    Defense is driving me insane. Any one picking Clichy?

    1. oghash
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

    2. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No man city defence. Read that how you want to. They dont and nor do i

      1. Man Chest Hair United
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I have Clichy purely cos he plays 35 and I don't want double pool D

  27. OPTA FPL

    Ramsey back to the team to replace Eleny?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      check Hot Topic by Ozil. Who knows, Wenger might be lying

  28. C_G
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Play Payet or Martial this week?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Payet imo

    2. gbpearce - AMERICAN DYCHO
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Payet

    3. Shearer & Sutton
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Payet

  29. Jay Jay Okocha

    Alright, I think this is it. Looking for brutally honest criticism

    Robles, Darlow
    Bellerin, Rojo, Moreno, Delaney, Gabriel
    Sanchez, KDB, Coutinho, Payet, Lanzini
    Aguero, Lukaku, Martial

    0.3 ITB for upgrades. Any suggestions?

    1. Man Chest Hair United
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Rojo Moreno gabriel are all slight rotation risks and Darlow is porridge so I cant say your bacline is very good.

      Front 8 is solid

  30. UnitedXCI

    Save FT right ?
    Robles
    Bellerin Smalling Clyne
    Mahrez Coutinho Bolasie Sanchez Payet
    Lukaku Aguero

    Darlow: Martial Gabriel Dawson
    ITB 0.1

    1. Man Chest Hair United

      yes indeed
