Just three weeks ago we dedicated a ScoutCast to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

We collectively toasted his impact Manchester United and swore that he was set to be a mainstay in our squads and seasons.

Just 21-days later, three of the ScoutCast team have sold him on and another teeters on the edge – Jonty is only really hesitating because a four-point hit is involved.

To be fair, Zlatan’s likely biggest fan is missing for this week’s episode. With Granville nursing man-flu, it’s left to Luke to make a return and step in to join Jonty, Andy and myself as we gang up to round on the big Swede.

We’re clearly not the only one’s guilty of this foolishly fickle approach.

This week’s community questions were dominated by talk of a Zlatan exit, whilst also quizzing us on the rise and potential fall of Etienne Capoue, the potential offered by a switch to 3-5-2 and the merits of Theo Walcott as a Fantasy asset. No, really.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first beamed live via our YouTube channel on Tuesday night. Be sure to subscribe to get notice of future live episodes.

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

    Does anyone think Hull will beat Liverpool?

    1. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Nope

      1. bigbudgie
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        I'm in the 'not a friggin chance' category

        1. Jape
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          I wanted to be polite haha. Hull will definitely score, but they won't win.

    2. Tree House
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Wouldn't be shocked these days

    3. VADAI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      That thought had crossed my mind for sure. In fact even a draw is possible.

      1. COYS Down Under
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        1-1 draw

    4. Shtreedon
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Liverpool's performance against 'smaller' teams makes it quite possible actually, but if they play as good as they were playing lately, Hull doesn't have a chance really.

    5. Cok3y5murf
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Ssshh.. Be quiet.. Liverpool captainers are listening.

    6. KOLASINA(C)
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I think they will but let them captain those Firminos and Coutinhos

    7. Kitman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Liverpool dare I say 'troll' you on fixtures like this

    8. kyo619
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      of course!

      if Burnley can, why not Hull?.... anyways liverpool are also famously known to win big matches and screw up such small ones as well.

  2. Tree House
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Sorry bottomed out a bit..

    Best defensive combo for 10.5m?

    Currently on Vertongen + Williams

    1. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Walker + Holebas

      1. Tree House
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks but should state the rest is cheap: Holebas, Amat, Kingsley

        1. VADAI
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Double swan defence?

          1. Tree House
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            They won't play

        2. Jape
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Oh right. Then I quite like what you've got.

          1. Tree House
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Thanks mate

  3. BB-8
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Last time before I pull the trigger. Which is better?

    A. Ibra Chadli/Bolasie
    B. Costa Firmino

    1. Najoman86
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Prefer B

    2. VADAI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B by far

    3. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I reckon A, guessing you have Kaku

      1. BB-8
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Yup, have Kaku.

        1. Jape
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Then maybe B 🙂

          1. BB-8
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Cheers Jape 🙂

            1. Jape
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              No worries 🙂 Good luck!

    4. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      B

  4. Netley Lucas
    • 10 Years

    01 Dec 2013 Hull City v Liverpool W 3-1 Premier League
    01 Jan 2014 Liverpool v Hull City L 2-0 Premier League
    25 Oct 2014 Liverpool v Hull City D 0-0 Premier League
    28 Apr 2015 Hull City v Liverpool W 1-0 Premier League

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Take the WLD out, scores are correct.

    2. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Lol guessing you don't think Pool will win.

      1. Netley Lucas
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        I think there might be an enthusiasm that is about te be curbed.

        1. Jape
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Completely different team to what we were then.

          1. Netley Lucas
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            True, Suarez & Gerrard played in the 1-3.

            1. Jape
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              Also Rodgers was manager...

              1. Netley Lucas
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 4 months ago

                lol

        2. COYS Down Under
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Maybe, Klopp is a factor to consider though. And Pool's team is their best since Suarez was there.

    3. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Hull are also a different team to back then

    4. Zasa
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Wouldn't be putting too much weight into this at all tbh, completely different teams, players, manager, etc.

    5. Mini Mane Mo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Well, Hull didn't manage to score at Anfield. Plus what the others have said its a completely different team. Liverpool have scored 21 goals in the last eight home matches, guess i'll take my chances.

  5. rohan
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    New crowd. Team set for the week then? Tripling up on Pool for the week.

    Pickford
    Coleman. Lovren. Holebas
    Antonio. Capoue. Mane. Firmino
    Zlatan. Lukaku. Kun (C)

    Subs- Jaku. De Roon. Amat. Kingsley

    Mane will be Sanchez next week. Thoughts?

    1. VADAI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Good team

    2. BB-8
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Lovely

    3. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      GW rank 1 🙂

    4. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Don't get a pool defender. Can see them winning but maybe not keeping a clean sheet. 3-1 me thinks

      1. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Don't let the first five fixtures put you off. Four of the first five were on the road, including at Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal, and their defensive stats are actually very good.

        1. rohan
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          This. Plus don't see a better defender for 4.9

    5. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I've got the same 11 except Williams over Coleman and Bolasie over Capoue.

      I like it.

    6. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'm going Foster pick and hence Willliams for your pick Jak and Coleman. I have to say i like this better but still going to keep Foster for guaranteed gametime... Same plan on the transfer.

      1. rohan
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        I know there are shortcomings with the Jaku and Pickford pick. I played Foster for all these weeks. I just think I'll be safe as long as Pickford and Jaku don't get dropped the same wk

  6. @Team Shark FC
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Heaton or Pickford for this GW?

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      What are your thoughts?

      1. @Team Shark FC
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Probably leaning towards Heaton.

        1. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          There, that's the answer.

          1. @Team Shark FC
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Lol need some other people advice.

            1. Netley Lucas
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              Why?

              1. @Team Shark FC
                • 15 Years
                9 years, 4 months ago

                .....

                1. Netley Lucas
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 4 months ago

                  No, why? To confirm your leaning or challenge? There is a lot of confirmation bias going on here.

        2. boney
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          pickford got slight chances of cleanie imo. he did well against spurs. almost can tell you have atleast capoue or holebas in team as well, which will face burnley.

          in your case, a clear cut winner

          1. @Team Shark FC
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            GW6 Team:

            Pickford/Heaton
            Baines/Evans/Valencia
            Sterling/Antonio/Firmino/Capoue
            Aguer0/Lukaku/Benteke

            1. boney
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              if u're fancy save points, i'd choose heaton.

              if u're looking for a possible cs (which is almost not happening imo), i'd choose pickford myself. but this is just me.

              if u don't know what to do, just follow your instinct 😉

              1. @Team Shark FC
                • 15 Years
                9 years, 4 months ago

                Thank you

    2. VADAI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Heaton IMO. Both have equal chances of CS/no CS. But Watford is more attacking, so save points will always be there for Heaton

      1. BATISTUTA ®
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Safe as tourism in Teheran

  7. Oz lotto
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Kept Kun and I'm happy about it...

    Ibra + Stuani --> Lukaku and Deeney for free with 0.7 in the bank?
    Yay or nay?

    1. boney
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      i'd do it. so yay for me

    2. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Yeah

  8. boney
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    attacking prospect aside, which of these 2 players have a little edge over the other, cs wise?

    a. kone
    b. holebas

    trying to decide who to play (got capoue & deeney already)

    1. bigbudgie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Watford have a record of 0 clean sheets but records are made to be broken.

      B

    2. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B

    3. BB-8
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Burnley can't attack. So B

    4. COYS Down Under
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I like Francis to be honest.

    5. BATISTUTA ®
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B . Watford has the best fixtures upcoming !

  9. bowsy51
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Which front 8 is best?

    A) SANCHEZ ANTONIO Firmino Sterling Capoue
    LUKAKU DEENEY Aguero

    B) MANE SNODGRASS Firmino Sterling Capoue
    IBRA JANSSEN Aguero

    1. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Tell you what. I like B. It's a little bit different, but still has most of the big hitters in there. It's good, nice differentials.

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      A

    3. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      A

    4. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Both benching head aches.

  10. TorresMagic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Which one?

    a) Williams and Foster/Jaku
    b) Baines and Pickford/Jaku

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      A

    2. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Baines, Jaku and Pik rotate nicely.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Worried about Jaku's spot.

        1. Manilaman
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Jaku will be gone

    3. bigbudgie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Toughie
      But B

      Baines + pens = monster haul incoming at some point.

      Clean sheets impossible to pick

    4. Kane Toads
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'm on Williams/Foster/Pickford.

    5. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B with Coleman.

    6. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Cheers all

    7. Mini Mane Mo
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B....Pickford for the save points purely.

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

      Anything with Baines

  11. Sushant
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Thinking of starting Pickford ahead of foster..am I mad!?

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      No

    2. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Nope, but doubt either will keep a CS.

    3. COYS Down Under
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I would but I have PVA so I like to spread the risk.

  12. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Is going with Sanchez an option if you don't have any Arsenal cover?

    1. Sukeerth
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Yes, Gunners do have decent fixtures. Iwobi with gaffer's trust is an interesting option too.

    2. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Shouldn't even be asking that. Of course it is.

  13. Sukeerth
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Hey Guys, any wonder why Aguero's price rice % is not rising??

    I see that his target % stagnant at 0 for the last 2 days while his ownership keeps rising all the time.

      Locked

      1. Sukeerth
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Why is it locked? it seems strange to me.

        1. TorresMagic™

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Stops his price rising so people who haven't noticed the flag removal to have ample time to buy him at 13.

    2. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      It's locked for the next 8 days. Because his red flag has been removed

      1. Sukeerth
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Gotcha. Thanks mate!

  14. Kane Train
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on Walker ?

    Already have Williams & Lovren

    1. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      If you can afford him, get him.

    2. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      He will get rotated eventually.

      1. bigbudgie
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        probably this....rotation too much of an annoyance there for me

    3. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      This season's Bellerin, on the up.

    4. VADAI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      For free, yes

  15. bigbudgie
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    A) Kos Snoddy + 0.5 (means playing Capoue this week instead of Antonio)
    B) Lovren Antonio

      Short term B. Medium term A. So a sit on the fence non answer from me.

      A

    Can't decide between Heaton & Foster (bound to pick the wrong one).

    WBA way, but seem better away, against toothless Stoke
    Burnley at home, but against an attacking Watford

    1. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Foster. Pulis knows Stoke inside out. Clean sheet certainty

    2. VADAI
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I've gone Foster for the same reason you've stated. CS odds are better.

    Can any Watford fans tell me how Ighalo has been playing? Anyone fancy him ahead of Deeney?

    1. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Take a look at the member stats. Ighalo's important stats far outshine Deeney's. Due a goal with their fixtures IMO

      1. Tree House
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        I have studied the stats and agree with you, thanks. Also keen to hear from people who have watched all the games.

        Yeah, miss after miss 2nd half of last season too.

    3. Kane Train
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      He's been playing well, but Deeney on Pens puts him just ahead

    4. Jape
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Deeney is on Pens and is cheaper which makes him more appealing imo

    5. Sebbo29
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Deeney for me too. Cheaper and on pens too. Plus that miss vs. ManU from Ighalo - ugh!

    Who will have the last laugh at this encounter ... Mourinho or Ranieri.

    Or Zalatan?

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 12 Years

      Ranieri and vardy

    2. ManofKent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I'm hoping for a draw with Ibra scoring

  20. Sweetboi
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Pick one:

    a) Coleman - Son - Ighalo

    b) Williams - Sterling - Rashford

    1. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Oh has te be b)? Is that what you're thinking too? Per chance?

      1. Sweetboi
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, B looks better tbf. I like Son as an option though, think he's a proper FPL player.

        1. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          He's great but I dunno if he really fits into the front 4... after this week?

    2. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B - both Son and Rashford not nailed but B

    3. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      B. Less risky

  21. Capoue
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Im staring snodgrass over me (capoue).. How about you?

    1. Sweetboi
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Would play Capoue over Snod personally

    2. TokyoRisingSun
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'd start almost everyone over you 😉

    3. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'm starting Capoue over Fletcher, doesn't rhyme like you.

  22. Kane Train
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    What changes would you make on my WC 0.6 itb

    Heaton
    Lovren / Walker / Williams
    Capoue / Sanchez / KDB / Antonio
    Aguero / Deeney / Lukaku

    Bench: Jaku / Amat / Kelly / Barry

    1. Mini Mane Mo
      • 9 Years

      1. Kane Train

        thought lovren played for them haha

    2. BB-8
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Williams to Baines

    3. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      You seem to have a WC every week?

      1. Kane Train

        are you drunk?

        1. Netley Lucas

          Yeah, but you do seem to have a WC every week lol 😉

      2

    5. knirkefritt
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks for replies. I thought it was going to be a majority for Firmino, but this gives me second thoughts.

      1. Albrightondknight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        1 it was 50 / 50 now its 60 / 40 that's a majority. I travel between constituencies to vote twice.

        1. Netley Lucas
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          lol

        2. knirkefritt
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          You are confident that Firmino will start?

          1. Albrightondknight
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Yeah week missed with small injury will be considered a break. If Stufge gets more time there are lots of midfield options and there will be rotation but he should be immune from most of it.

      2. COYS Down Under
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Compare the stats, output and watch both play. It's really a no-brainer in my opinion.

  24. Braca_Bez_Gajca

    Holebas vs zuniga, whos gets the start against Burnley?

    1. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Holebas doesn't seem to be at much risk.

      1. Kitman
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Holebas

        Zuniga was a sub in the last game

  25. Captain Vantastic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Barkley to Firmino for -4?

    1. La Roja
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Nah

    2. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'd much prefer Firmino long term, not Barkley has a good fixture this week, so this move seems unnecessary.

  26. Butcher
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    1. Firmino/Baines
    2. Williams/Mane

    Please pick one

    1. Jape

      Doing a good job of cleaning up the Philippines. Actually feel slightly safer when I visit there now.

      1. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Good luck with the economy. He's a murderer and a thug.

        1. Jape
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          1. I'm not Filipino, i'm English.
          2. Have you read anything else about what he's done or just the usual "he murdered someone"

          1. BananaNose Maldonado
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            I'll rephrase: He is going to ruin his county's economy.

            1. BananaNose Maldonado
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years

            2. Jape
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              30th largest economy in the world, don't see how it can be made much worse. If anything getting rid of the corruption and trying to make the place safer will only increase tourism which will boost the economy

              1. BananaNose Maldonado
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years

                Money that flowed into the Philippines after the May elections is drying up. Philippine stocks slid 0.7 percent on Friday, and foreign funds have been selling for 21 straight days as of Thursday, the longest outflow since 2007.

                The peso slumped to an eight-month low against the U.S. dollar and is the worst-performing Asian currency after the yuan this year. Foreign direct investment shrank 41 percent in June from a year earlier.

                1. Jape
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 4 months ago

                  All of that is bound to happen as the government and way of life there is undergoing a drastic change.

                  I'll give it 5 years and make another judgement then, but at this current moment, even though the economy is down a little, I believe it'll be a better place. A lot of Filipinos tend to agree.

                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 11 Years

                    Fair enough. Time will tell.

                    I tend to have adverse reactions to people that humanitarian groups condemn. But that's just me.

                    1. Jape
                      • 10 Years
                      9 years, 4 months ago

                      Time will tell indeed. Can't see him becoming a Hitler though haha!

        Im a filipino we love him

    5. bigbudgie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      None of my business and Filipinos I know are 100% behind him.

      He also called out the hypocrites at the UN .... hard to argue with him there

  28. Live Lad
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Foster, Jaku
    Coleman, Walker, Holebas (Amat, Kelly)
    Sterling, Antonio, Firmino, Capoue (Zaha)
    Lukaku, Aguero, Ibra

    On WC obviously. 0.1 itb. Can't afford Snoody. Zaha ok? Puncheon better?
    Any suggestion at all?

    1. Kitman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      First reaction was how the hell can you afford that so Therefore team looks spot on.

      Just lacking the Arsenal cover but can't have everything

      1. Live Lad
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks mate. Probably because I got Capoue at 4.5 and some early. I will get Arsenal mid when I downgrade Ibra, when I am (more) tired of him.

    2. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Coleman to Williams allows you to afford Snodgrass, right?

      1. Live Lad
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Yes. Coleman can score goals and assist, no? Kelly can be 4.0 but I wanna have playing players only in my WCT.

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          But the difference between Coleman and Williams is likely to be slight. The difference between Snodgrass and Zaha should be larger.

  29. Eze Really?

    Hi guys, Is Shaw definitely injured? Cheers.

    1. Netley Lucas

      Slight groin tear, 50/50 last I heard.

      Not for Rashford
