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.

  1. FC Hakkebøf
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Would you consider any of the following players safe of at least getting two starts in the last three?

    A) Lindelof
    B) Aurier
    C) Trippier
    D) Mendy

    They are really cheap in this other fantasy game im playing

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      E) Chambers

    2. RedMarks 赤的
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Maybe lindelof and trippier

    3. Waylander
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Probably trips

    4. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Replied last page, but didn't realise you were playing a different game with different prices.

      Chambers most safe.

      If I had to guess, Aurier will start vs West Brom. Tripper vs Newcastle. Aurier vs Leicester.

  2. RedMarks 赤的
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Sane transfer in for (part of -8 hits)

    A. Willian
    B. Mahrez

    Cheers

    1. Waylander
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Willian if you keeping one or the other as he's unlikely to play both games

      1. RedMarks 赤的
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yep, keeping the other one.
        My worry is vs HUD, he could explode if starts.
        Cheers

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

    please end my agony. Sane or David Silva

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

      d.silva for me. go big or go home

    2. Waylander
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Toss a coin

    3. semiconductor
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      silva

    4. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Dilva was seen in training today... so he is back from Spain and will play Sunday

  4. chelseabrad
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Salah & Willian > Eriksen & Pogba for a further -8? Already made one hit, on a bench boost this week

    1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Reasonable move; keep 1 million itb for Erik back out to Pog next week if it looks promising

      1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Erik to Salah next week^^

  5. niloh1
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    hey guys, so I have barnes, willian, morgan and christensen. Obviously I want to get rid of them all, but I don't want to take a -16 point it, since I already did 2 transfers. Which of the following 2 would you do?? or would you just do 1 transfer?

    a) barnes to jordan ayew
    b) willian to ramsey (or arnie if arsenal go through)
    c) morgan to mawson
    d) christensen to vert/ bdavies

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Can you post your full team? Difficult to know without knowing who else you have

    2. RedMarks 赤的
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      A in 343
      D in 352

    3. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      B is the best move for a hit imo

  6. Bad Kompany
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Gtg, right? On -4.

    De Gea
    Alonso Smalling Fernandez
    Sterling Son Pogba Arnie
    Kane(tc) Auba Barnes

    Ryan Chilwell Westwood Lowton

    I know that most people would remove Barnes but I feel like they could do something vs. Arsenal so I don’t want to do it for a hit

  7. Floyd69
    • 12 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Play Matic (bha, whm) or Milivojevic (stk)? Likely 6pts for Matic for 2 clean sheets, but Milo could well score or assist and get bonus points

    1. Waylander
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Matic if you're dullard mili if you fancy a gamble. I'd prob go matic

  8. Gangster Panda
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    I'm ready to do it - using Salah funds I want a 1 week punt for a hit
    (then get him right back again gw38)

    1.8 itb (11.5 with Salah £)

    Lloris (Ryan)
    Smalling, Mustafi, Morgan (Dunk, Lowton)
    Salah > ?, Sterling, Son, Matic (Cork)
    Kane, Jesus, Vardy

    ..or keep Salah v che, and upgrade Matic, a defender, or leave as is?

    1. GoonSquad
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Hazard would hold most risk reward potential.

  9. JJJ
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    On BB, 1 FT .6itb
    only non DGW players are Zaha and Salah.
    A- hold
    B- Zaha to Ramsey?, Zaha faces a stingy Stoke who just frustrated Liverpool
    C- Salah to Hazard?, Chelsea have to go for it and Liverpool beat top clubs by outscoring them not with cleansheets

    any other suggestions?
    thanks

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Don’t lose Zaha imo

    2. Flaming Flamingo
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      A is probably the sensible choice. C would tempt me though.

    3. Zero-ZeroIsABigScore
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Hazard or Eriksen if you dont already have him

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

    I havent taken a hit all year and find myself in the top 10K. Should I finally take a hit and go Willian > Arnie for -4?

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Yes imo

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

        is Willian definitely on the bench?

        1. Bad Kompany
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 7 months ago

          No but I think that he will only play one. Don’t be wrong though

          1. Bad Kompany
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            Could*

  11. Waylander
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Which do we like out of these options lads:

    A) Naughton/Gross/D Silva (-4)
    B) Naughton/Tadic/Pogba (-8)
    C) Naughton/Ritchie/Sane (-8)

    Cheers all.

    1. RedMarks 赤的
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Play safe, A
      More risk, B

      1. Waylander
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers

  12. TO19
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Up by 42. Rival is on FH.

    Already did Salah > Sterling.

    A) Willian > Arnie for -4
    B) Barnes > J Ayew for -4

    1. JD @JDCochran2
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I like Arnie...seems like he is on a mission

    2. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      A imo

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

      I’m thinking both A and B

  13. steven8991
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    auba to jesus for free, or save?

    1. JD @JDCochran2
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Arsenal not scoring right now...City there is no ceiling

    2. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I’d do it

  14. JD @JDCochran2
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    1) Vardy + Gudmundsson + Lowton > J Ayew, 7.2 or lower, Davies

    or

    2) Vardy + Gudmundsson + Lowton > J Ayew, Arnie, Vert

    1. Pickled and Preserved
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      2

  15. Roy Rovers
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Leading my ML by 2 points....

    Willian > Ramsey...Y or N

    DDG Hennessy
    Vert Dummett VDH Lowton Tarks
    Eriksen Sterling Willian Lingard Cork
    Keane Jesus Vardy

  16. FFSbet.com
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Doctor,doctor i have a problem!
    What is it?
    I doubt too much...or NOT ?

    Who to captain 33 points behind 10k playing BB

    A) Kane
    B) Jesus
    C) Sterling

    1. Waylander
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      It's a lottery

      1. FFSbet.com
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah,dont think Kane will help me much most will have him TC and will match my BB with that.
        But If he haul up to 50k+...no idea who to C.

    2. RedMarks 赤的
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      I think BAC

  17. davies
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Chambers or Naughton

  18. Geezer
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Which of these moves are worth a hit?

    A: Morgan to Swansea
    B: Willian to Arnie/Dilva/Pogba
    C: Barnes to J Ayew

    1. Bad Kompany
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      First two imo

    2. Waylander
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      If you are playing all 3 of them then they are all worth a hit

  19. steven8991
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    TC active

    DDG
    Bavies Mustafi Chilwell
    Sterling Salah Milivojevic Willian
    Barnes Auba Kane (TC)
    (Ryan, Lingard, Morgan, Lowton)

    I have 2FT, which 2 are the most important?

    A. Auba > Jesus
    B. Barnes > J.Ayew
    C. Get rid of Willian
    D. Get rid of Morgan/Lowton

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

      c and d i think

  20. mikess
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    De Gea, Hennessey
    Smalling, Morgan, Long, Lowton, Marriapa
    Sterling, Salah, Arnie, Zaha, Gudmundsson
    Kane, Auba, Jesus

    Got two frees only 0.1 itb

    Any suggestions? I'm a bit top heavy so difficult to improve the defence. Zaha and Salah both have great form and final fixtures

    1. Red Card Rockets
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Swansea defense maybe

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

        cheers

  21. JD @JDCochran2
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Salah > Hazard?

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

      tempting

      1. JD @JDCochran2
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        we have similar defenses...what are you going to do with it for this GW?

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

          lowton to swansea an option

          alternative is Salah > Ramsey and pump money into clean sheet potential

          1. JD @JDCochran2
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            you not getting Salah back for GW 38?

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

              don't think i'll do that as it would rule it out

          2. JD @JDCochran2
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 7 months ago

            I just don't see Swansea getting any points. Been in relegation forever and they have not had but 3 clean sheets in last 19 games

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

              your probably right

  22. semiconductor
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    best city defender? is walker out?

  23. Woy_is_back
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Pogba or Hazard?

    Kane, Jesus, Ayew

    Which option is best?

    1. Stick/take no hits and play Lowton

    3. Son to Eriksen (-4)
    4. Lowton/Son to Alli/Mawson (-8)

    Fabianski-McCarthy
    Smalling+VDH+Chilwell+Dummet+Kenny

      fab/vdh/king you've got 3 swans already.
      I don't think a -4 is covered by who you can get in for Vardy/Kenny out

      Kenny/King/Vardy to Cedric/Arnautovic/J.Ayew ?
