The ScoutCast crew are joined by the current Fantasy Premier League pacesetter in this latest episode, as world number one Bharat Dhody drops by.

With ice flowing through his veins, Bharat risks the curse that has seen us dent the title tilt for previous top-ranked managers to join myself, Jonty, Andy and Az for a ScoutCast season highlight.

Inevitably, the four of us are a little star-struck, but in between our desperate attempts to convince Bharat to keep his cards close to his chest, we put his season and current mindset under scrutiny.

Elsewhere, your community questions lead us by the hand as we assess Harry Kane’s updated application for the Triple Captain role, review the merits of a Mohamed Salah exit plan and scratch around for Double Gameweek differentials.

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

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

    A) Mahrez -> Sterling
    B) Vardy -> Jesus
    C) Mahrez + Vardy -> Jesus + Sane (-4)
    D) Mahrez + Grob -> Sterling + Arnie (-4)

    Anyone still with the choice of whether to TC or BB this week?

      o/

      1. Hand of Dog
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Which way you leaning?

        1. kennethrhcp
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          TC & set up for BB next week. team linked

          i'm off to watch a show (sorry if you wanted help!)

          1. Hand of Dog
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            No worries!

          2. Patch
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            Who are you TV tho

            1. Hand of Dog
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              I feel like if you are TCing in the double you have to pick a player that is definitely getting a double or else you might as well hold and TC Salah in 38. But then that only really leaves Kane, which is uninspiring on current form.

  3. Big Ronnie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Arnie, Ramsey or Tadic?

    1. T444
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Arnie, tadic, Ramsey
      Order of preference

    2. kennethrhcp
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      A

    3. Hand of Dog
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Probably Arnie

    4. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Arnie or Ramsey. Arnie safer

    5. Stevie B
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Why prefer people Tadic? In my opinion he is too hot and cold. Probably he will get only a few points.

      I am a huge Southampton fan and wish Tadic a lot of points that we survive. But I do not think so.

  4. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Where's the good stuff from AFTV? My body is ready.

  5. Scotty B
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Ramsey a good option now?

    1. Voodoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Too inj prone?

  6. Sheeno
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Thoughts on Mkhi for GW37? On a FH, he seems like a decent choice to me.

    1. T444
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Looked threatening tonight. Should have started

      1. Sheeno
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah I thought so too, what do you reckon are the odds he'll start the next two games? Baffled why he didn't start tonight to be honest.

  7. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Trying to squeeze the best from my team

    Squad is...
    DDG (Pope)
    Chilwell, Yedlin, #, Kiko, Lowton
    Alli, Sterling, Willian, #, #
    Kane, Jesus, #

    A Alonso, Pogba, Ayew, Milo 343 (-8)
    B Azip, Sané, Ayew, Milo 343 (-8)
    C Alonso, Tadic, Arnie, Barnes 352 (-8)

  8. reeceon
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    A) Sane + Tadic
    B) Ramsey + Pogba

    1. kennethrhcp

      7 years, 7 months ago

      7 years, 7 months ago

      b

  9. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Give him the ball and a yard of grass...

  10. Arlo
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Joint top of ML, he has BB and I have TC.

    a) Willian to Arnie (rival has him)
    b) Willian to Eriksen (I have Kane+Vert , rival has Kane+Alli)
    c) Keep Willian and do Cork to Arnie

    Cheers all, going to be a tense weekend.

    1. Hand of Dog
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Making me tens to read about it. Can't intervene!

    2. Voodoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      C

    3. Arlo
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Cheers.

      Doing c does give me an extra DGW player.

      Just feel that I need a Spurs mid & not sure of Willians minutes to keep hold of him.

      Wait for the pressers I guess.

    • 15 Years

    1. FPL_WILDCARD

  19. andymck

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Can you do W & G ->> A & R (-4)?

      1. andymck
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        I can but Christensen is the main one I want out!

    2. reeceon
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      yes

      1. mahone24
        • 15 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        What about for a minus 12 (asking for a friend....)
        Also considering Danilo if Walker out tomorrow.

    3. Voodoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Looks well worth it to me. Go for it.

  20. Connor's Calling
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Pogba or Sane?

    (Will be for -4, probably for Willian)

    1. Kanga roo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Sane

    2. reeceon
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      sane

    3. mahone24
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Sane. Just cant see United rolling anyone over at the moment (as a United fan) so better chance of City hauls despite slight rotation risk.

  21. Tmel
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    a) Kenedy & Chambers
    b) Kenedy & Naughton
    c) Kenedy & Cedric
    d) Fernandinho & Naughton
    e) Gundo & Bednarek
    f) King & Laporte

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    2. Voodoo

      7 years, 7 months ago

      B

  22. HD7
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    A) Smalling Mawson in for Baily Morgan (-4)
    B) + Sane in for Mahrez for another -4

    Current team:

    DdG (Ryan)
    Vertongen Morgan Baily (Tark, Lowton)
    Son Sterling Mahrez AKing (Gudm)
    Kane Jesus Vardy

    1. reeceon
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      B

  23. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Is there a chance that J. Ayew could be rotated with Abraham?

    1. Smurf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Teams battling for survival don’t have the luxury of rotating their bets players.

    2. yemzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      always a chance but I doubt it, he's first choice.

  24. Yank Revolution
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    For rest of season: City D

    Danilo or Laporte?

    Danilo's case -Walker will likely miss at least one game, mebbe more methinks. Pep presser tomorrow?
    Laporte's case -Kompany/Stones still injured so why risk them yeah? Laporte sure starter next season?

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Danilo

    2. barracuda
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      All of them trained today.

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yikes, really? So, selection nightmare?

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Thanx Prof and Scarface

  25. BEEZUS
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Is taking a -12 ridiculous when chasing a a 30 point deficit to my ML leader? Would give me about 8 games more than him.

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I wouldn’t myself

    2. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Depends on transfers. I'm in similar situation and the hits are 100% worth it

      1. BEEZUS
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Would involve swapping Salah for KDB who my rival will keep for sure. Risky but tempting.

        1. Annie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          I assume rival has Sterling and Sane?

          1. BEEZUS
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            Neither!

            1. Annie
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              7 years, 7 months ago

              then get Sterling

              1. BEEZUS
                • 12 Years
                7 years, 7 months ago

                Already have him. Torn between KDB, Sane and Pog. If Walker is out will get Danilo as 3rd city player and bring Pogba in.

  26. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Who To TC ?
    A- Jesus GW 37
    B- Kane GW 37
    C- Sterling GW 37
    D- Moo Salah GW 38

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      A or B for me...

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Not D.

    3. Goalosaurus
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      B.

  27. JWilson3
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Smalling or Monreal?

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Smalling if you don’t have DDG

    2. barracuda
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Same dilemma. Do Arsenal need to play for anything this season? 2 away games for Arsenal doesn't look right/ have been poor away this season.

    3. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Monreal was crap tonight

  28. FPL Blow-In

    • 13 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Hi folks has there been any news on Fernandez? Have had him for weeks and he is still flagged.

    1. Patch
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Twitter suggesting he is back in training
