There’s no other word for it, this week’s ScoutCast is certainly an “intense” affair, gripped by the troublesome uncertainty served up by the most testing double Gameweek in memory.

Jonty, Andy and Az once again join me as we quickly review our Gameweek 33s, before indulging in the main course – chewing through your queries that dissect the dilemmas served up by the forthcoming fixtures.

The merits of Zlatan, the head-to-head between Negredo and Benteke and a full risk assessment of shedding Sanchez and Sigurdsson – these are all topics to furrow the brow as we indulge in the most passionate of ScoutCasts for some weeks.

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

If you’re a traditional type, you can acquire the mp3 audio version via this link on the first player below, or take in the full visual experience via the second player below.

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

    Rashford looks a bit of a trap.

    He's probably had seven or eight shots, good chances... but very few on target, and still no goal. Looks dangerous, but very wasteful.

    120 mins tonight, and the only proper CF option they have for the Europa..

    😕 🙁

    Plenty of this team are going to have to play DGW what with ibra and rojo now missing.
    Good chance mkhi starts unless Rooney gets a start instead?
    And good chance Valencia starts as blind will play CB which means Damian probably LB?

    First time all season an early transfer has killed me this week - took an 8 pointer to get in Ibra as it looked like his prize was going to rise on Monday, and now not only is he injured but he didn't go up in price so there was no point making the move early...!

    Looking like it's going to have to be a wildcard to the rescue...

        I could have but only would have had 0.1m left ITB and it's been tight on funds for me recently.

        As they've said on the Scoutcast recently, early transfers haven't really backfired this season so there's a first time for everything. Wouldn't have expected it from Ibra as well as he basically never gets injured.

      It's never worth it to avoid a 0.1 rise...ever.
      0.2 or more possible in a week, then yes, early transfer has some value.
