Is now the time to give up on the premium strikers – we’re looking at you Harry – and throw our cash at a “power five” midfield?

It’s a big question that requires a crack team to answer.

Unfortunately, we only have the ScoutCast crew available, though we did manage to pull off a big loan signing to help us out.

Jay Eggersdorf – the current “live” Hall of Fame number one joins Jonty, Andy and Az as we take on the big topic of the day.

In the middle of another stunning season – Jay reveals his strategy behind his recent move to shed Kane on the back of another impressive points tally.

Then on 44 minutes, Jay’s phone is almost drained of life. Tickled by the on-camera events that follow, Jonty and Az struggle to hold it together to discuss the recruitment of Paul Pogba and the merits of West Ham investment before we look ahead to Gameweek 19.

It’s an intense 90-minutes, with the frivolity of this “festive” ScoutCast limited to silly jumpers and hats. Though we each get the opportunity to reveal our Christmas wish.

Just one wafer-thin hat-trick please Harry.

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

    I am on a wildcard and have two options below. My strategy is to transfer out Kane and then leave enough in the bank to get him back in (like many). Also to load up on as many double game week 21 players while still leaving me a full team for gw 21. A bit of a risk with rotation etc but I am chasing in my mini league (68 points behind) so have to take some risks. I would like to get Morata in but dont quite have the money. 4.3 in the bank

    Team A

    GK Ryan Adrian
    D Alonso Otamendi Vertongen Kenny Ogbonna
    M Sterling Salah Coutinho Lingard Arnautovic
    F Firmino Depoitre Calvert-Lewin

    Team B

    GK Ryan Adrian
    D Alonso Otamendi Long Kenny Ogbonna
    M Sterling Salah Coutinho Son Arnautovic
    F Firmino Depoitre Calvert-Lewin

    I know very little differences so far. Do any of the experts out there have any better wildcard teams I could do using the above strategy whilst also keeping a solid team moving forward. The two goal keepers rotate for the rest of the season or until wildcard 2 except for GW 31 and 35.

    Thanks!
