Scoutcast Episode 294 – Endgame

“We’re in the Endgame now.”

With just one round of fixtures left of the season the Scoutcast team attempt to wrap up all of the outstanding talking points ahead of Gameweek 38.

Andy, David and Az began by overcoming the frustrating nature of Gameweek 37 in order to get truly excited about the final day of the campaign.

Not surprisingly, the key player to be discussed was Son Heung-min, whose red card against Bournemouth ruled him out of Gameweek 38.

We looked at all the potential replacements and examined all the implications of moving him on for a cheaper midfield options.

That included our thoughts on Manchester United and Southampton assets after poor performances in Gameweek 37.

Next up was a debate on what Wolves can bring to Liverpool in Gameweek 38, especially with so many managers either double or tripled-up on them.

In the aftermath of the Reds’ incredible Champions League semi-final win over Barcelona, we also looked at what we thought Jurgen Klopp’s men are capable of in their Premier League finale.

Also, an injury to Andrew Robertson on Tuesday night prompted discussion about what to do with the left-back in Gameweek 38.

Finally, Andy, David and Az tackled some last day of the season dilemmas from managers wondering what tactics to employ to ensure the highest possible finish.

This episode of the Scoutcast can be accessed on our YouTube channel or embedded in the article below.

Once again, we apologise that we are still unable to publish it in a podcast form and will endeavour to rectify this for the 2019/20 season.

        Ha thanks but that part was just the intro to the actual question - didn't want it to seem like I was just gratuitously reposting lol!

      Redmond

    2. FPL Pillars
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      All risky

    Re-posting as bottomed on last page.

    8 points behind the leader in my ML with a big prize on the line! My team and his are below.

    Thoughts on the best use of the FT? 0.3 ITB. Son > Pogba perhaps? Thanks?

    Me:

    Lloris - Foster
    TAA - Laporte - Doherty - Valery - Duffy
    Son - Mane - Sterling - Jota - Redmond
    Aguero - Rashford - Jimenez

    Him:

    Allison - Ryan
    Robertson - Azpi - Kolasinac - AWB - Duffy
    Salah - Son - Hazard - Gundogan - Westwood
    Vardy - Wilson - Jimenez

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

      depends on who is son replacement is, who you will captain
      prob aguero or mane, hes gonna cap salah, could come down to cap choice

      1. simong1
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        True, something I won't know rally. He could well go Son > Pogba too. Thinking I'll captain Kun or Sterling

  5. Kalou
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 10 months ago

    Is Salah worth a -4 hit to replace son? Leading ml by only 4 points.
    A.yes
    B.no way

    1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah possibly. Would you captain?

      1. Kalou
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Think I would.

  6. Don Kloppeone
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 10 months ago

    Sorry post fail above

    Looking ahead to Sunday, depending on Salah and Robbo injury news, how does this look after a planned 1FT?

    £0.6itb
    Lloris
    Robbo*, Laporte, Valery
    Salah (C), Sterling, Mili, JWP, Babel
    Aguero, Wilson
    (Foster) (Jimi, Doherty, Yoshida)

    Alternative plan is to get Rondon for Jimi and play 3-4-3 with Jota first on the bench (instead of bringing in Babel).

    Thoughts always appreciated - cheers lads

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Salah should play imo.
      I'm also in same boat with Robbo Injury & Yoshida+Doherty on the bench.
      Will most probably play & hope Robbo is fit. Yoshida 1st sub (so Valery+Yoshida for me.) Not keen on taking hit on Defender.

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Hey bro

        Yeah I think at the moment I am happy to make my move and leave Robbo - worst case scenario either Doherty or Yoshida come in for him anyway which could be a lot worse.

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Yep
          🙂

          1. Don Kloppeone
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Just need to get to a decision on

            Jimi > Rondon/ Mitro
            or
            Jota > Babel

            Leaning towards Babel atm as NEW haven’t actually got a great record away vs London teams at all and Babel in tasty form

            1. Amey
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Mitrovic for me

              1. Don Kloppeone
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                Still him vs Babel?

                Babel’s stats are better (just compared them in the tool). High xGI and form better last 6 home matches. Also far more likely to get an assist and baps

                So pretty sure I’ll be going him and having Jimi ready to come on from the bench.

                But my mind may have changed by Sunday!

  7. You want sum?
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 10 months ago

    Etheridge (Hamer)
    Shaw Ake TAA (Wan-Bissaka, Kelly)
    Mane Hazard Sterling Pogba Milijovic
    Vardy Wilson (Jimenez)

    1ft
    1.4mil ITB

    Etheridge to Allison
    Ake to Laporte
    Jimi to Arnie

    For -8

    I'm leading my ML by 10 points or so.

    Worth a -8 on the final week?

    1. Greek Flair
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      you cant give away a 10pt lead. I'd keep the points cushion personally and just make 1FT

    2. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Can you afford to leave out the Jimenez transfer?

      First two look decent for -4

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Scratch the keeper & Jimenez to Arnie transfer

  8. Rupert The Horse
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Walk on.

    Son to?

    1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 10 months ago

      Sterling, Salah, Mane, B Silva, Redmond, Hazard, Babel, Fraser, Pogba, Moura.

      Pick one

      1. The Pesci challenge
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Will hazard and will he score points (not great away from home) or even play. May go Babel instead, good shout

        1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Yeah I have Haz from last week but don't fancy him.

          Babel is fun and punty

    2. #FPLBhuna
      • 7 Years

      destroy ajax

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Yes
        With new found fighting moves he can. (Only one player though before RC 😛 )

      2. Party time
          4 years, 10 months ago

          cool ya jets

          1. #FPLBhuna
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            hi hakim

            shouldn't you be training.

            1. Party time
                4 years, 10 months ago

                There's no need to train for spurs 😉

      3. Essrick
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Closed the gap on my ML rival again, 18 points behind now after being over 100 points behind 5/6 weeks ago;

        Only differences are;

        Me - Laporte, TAA, Hazard
        Rival - Cathcart, Robertson, Pogba

        Both only got 1 FT, he's got 0.7itb I've got nothing. I'll keep a close eye on his TV etc but he's known for blocking hence only having 3 different players! Should I rely on my differentials to close the gap or bring in someone silly and captain to go all out? I think I would be gutted if I did the latter and it turns out my differentials are enough.

        1. Greek Flair
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I wouldn’t be comfortable having 3 differentials to get 18pts. If he puts another of your players in that’s 2!

          1. Essrick
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Good point. I could do Hazard & Son > Salah & Redmond for -4 and captain Salah?

            1. Greek Flair
              • 8 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              I like those changes, you gotta go for it with one 1 week to go, no playing safe if chasing in 38.

        2. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I'd look for one more diff and try to captain someone you think he won't.

          1. Essrick
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            I'm thinking Redmond for my differential.

            If Robertson isn't fit he'll do him to either TAA or Laporte to block. I prefer Salah to Hazard this week and I think he could be the best captain pick so should be worth the -4 and I'm pretty sure he won't even have Salah.

      4. Wılly
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Do I play Valery and Long?
        Who do I bring in for Son or Jimenez, 0.7 ITB?
        Lloris
        VVD TAA Laporte Valery
        Sterling Mane Pogba Son*
        Aguero Long

        Foster Jimenez* Jota Dunk

        1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Zaha/Arnie/Rondon/Mitro for Jimenez
          or
          Redmond/Babel/Moura for Son

      5. C'mon the Fylde
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        What do you reckon?

        Jiminez -> Wilson (FT)
        If ruled out... Salah -> Hazard (-4)

        Ederson
        Laporte Azpilicueta TAA
        Fraser Salah Mane Pogba Babel
        Jiminez Aguero

        Fabianski AWB Grant Rice

        0.4m itb

      6. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Pick one please:
        A. Jota
        B. Jimenez
        C. Pogba
        D. Mane(-4)
        E. Vardy (-4)

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          C

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years

                • 5 Years

        2. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Really tough. If he had any form I'd say jimenez but as it is I'd say pogba despite his lack of form

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            😮
            Second Pogba vote.
            Cheers mate.

            1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor

              Welcome

                • 5 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                Redmond also in the mix.
                My mistake. What would you do ??

        3. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          F. Redmond
          (I forgotten about him, sorry)

          1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Have you considered fraser? Could be goals in a game with nothing on the line and he's put up some good stats away of late.

            1. Amey
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Yeah
              I have. But, I'm thinking about Redmond ©.
              Chasing OR so ...

              1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                I'm not sure I trust soton at the moment. I like redmond but not for captaincy.

                1. Amey
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 10 months ago

                  Cool.
                  Thank you !!

        4. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Redmond or Pogba

          I have my doubts about Pogba though. Is he going to start? If he starts will he be up for it? Does he even care anymore?

          1. Amey
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Yep
            Agreed mate. Redmond looks to be the one.

      7. Stig
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Best replacements for Son and Firmino?

        1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Depends on who you have. No context how about sterling and origi

          1. Stig
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Sorry, I do have sterling but Origi is on my radar if passed fit.

            Pogba tenpting but Utd so bad.

      8. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Is there any reason for klopp to not give us a definitive answer on robbo this week?

        Sitting on Son, robbo, masina and gray and that's already with playing triple wolves and just one free transfer.

        Bye bye rank.

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Maybe.
          We're getting close.
          We'll decide on Sunday.
          He's important player for us.
          We have players who can play @ LB.

          1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Hah! Sounds like you just pulled a quote!

          All aboard the Moreno train!
          Cho cho 😆

          1. VanDijksToWatchOutFor
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Hah! I'll go trent if robbo is out. Gutting since I got him because I thought he was more nailed to play every game

        3. Licky
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Liverpool's twitter said he'd have a scan.

      9. No Kane No Gain
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Are we expecting Salah to play the full 90, or there abouts?!

        Don’t have aguero so I think surely the next option would be Mo.

        Paranoia in regards the head injury and a 4-0 victory against Barca without him playing worrying me about giving him the armband.

        Maybe Berbinhos forehead is the one to speak up about this lol

        1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I think he's fine, he wasn't allowed to play vs Barca because of concussion protocol.

          1. No Kane No Gain
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Yes but they proved they didn’t need him, so will the bring him in against wolves even 8 days after concussion when they were on fire without him?!

            1. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
              • 10 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              I think the protocol is 7-10 days so it is tight. Klopp i doubt will give anything away to City. Salah will be desperate to play to keep Golden Boot among other things. Tough one...

              1. Licky
                • 11 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                I think he'll be fine, it seemed like he could have played but it was better not to risk it, and the CL final is like a month away so no reason to worry about resting players.

        2. Holmes

          if he is passed fit, I guess he will play full game.

      10. Zladan
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Who are the top 3 strikers to own this game week, even if you don’t own them?

        1. Duffy Dunk
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Aguero Vardy, and then possibly Wilson.

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I'd say, Kun Vardy Mitrovic

          1. Zladan
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Thanks.

            I’m not sure on Vardy myself but he is on form

            1. Amey
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Yep
              Chelsea play high line & i think it's going to be a great game. Have Hazard atm & will get Vardy most probably

        Slipped just outside the top 20k this week with a 35 point debacle. Really want to creep up a bit and improve on last years 25k. Any thoughts on this? Luckily didn't waste a transfer on Gunn or Pogba in the end so I have two FT's...

        Foster
        ROBBO Doherty Valery
        SALAH(c) Mane Eriksen SON
        Aguero Jimenez Gray

        Ryan Hojberg Duffy Bennett

        Son>Bilva leaves 1.0m ITB. Duffy>5.7m?

        1. OldBenKenobi
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I would say that’s your best bet yeah

        2. No Kane No Gain
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          gray to arnie?!

          maybe wait JUST IN CASE son red card is taken away. Then i'd say maybe getting Bilva for eriksen instead.

          1. OldBenKenobi
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Red card taken away? Since when?

            1. shirtless
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Oooh that's news? Def won't do anything until the weekend. All hinges on Salah. Salah>Sterling is also possible.

        3. No Kane No Gain
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Red card is being appealed. Anything is possible

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years

          they are using brains to make transfer

        Anyone with Gray still?
        You going to start him against WHM?

        1. No Kane No Gain
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Tempted. Not worth -4 to sell but I think he will start.

          Also his recent home form isn’t too bad actually!

      15. Bubz
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Captaincy is very difficult this week...

        1. OldBenKenobi
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Was just saying this earlier.
          Need a pool mid I think and captain one of them

          1. Bubz
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Wolves are a very good team and it will be a nervy game... not sure Pool is the way to go

            1. OldBenKenobi
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Same maybe can be said for City too. It can go one of two ways really. Just leaning on pool side more as they will be riding high from last nights performance

              1. pingissimus
                • 5 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                Yep

                I was very doubtful about my Mane option but I think the emotion overload from last night is going to impact Sunday.

                1. Bubz
                  • 10 Years
                  4 years, 10 months ago

                  I think if anything they will be drained from last night, not energized

        2. Zladan
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Sergio.

          1. Bubz
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            His away form puts me off a bit

            1. OldBenKenobi
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              This

        3. pingissimus
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Which makes it fun.

          I'm avoiding Kun and probably going with Mane - unless I go really punty. I just see more goals in that game. Brighton are not going to come out and play while there's every chance Wolves will.

        4. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Aguero or Salah the best options imo.

          Going for the title and golden boot and probably the two best goal scorers in the PL over the past 2 seasons.

          1. Baps hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Aguero the best safe bet now, but I will have to C Pogba (/Hazard) since chasing big time.

        5. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Hudds hunting 😉
          Redmond © !!

          1. pingissimus
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            He's my fall back.

            Huddersfield away are way worse than Huddersfield home. Soton are clearer favourites to haul than United were in my book. But slightly put off by rotation - Redmond plays surely but what about the team around him?

            1. Amey
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              O think the new manager will want to end the season on a high note in front of Home crowd. He's a great option imo

            2. Baps hunter
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              I have to choose between Ings and Long, not happy about it 🙁

        6. FantaCity
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Laporte if you have him might be the way

        7. Lazaretti
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          If Salah confirmed fit to play then prob TC him. Aguero and Hazard are my other options too.

        8. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Salah if confirmed, though mainly an ML rival block...

      16. Essrick
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Hazard & Son > Salah & Redmond for -4?

        I'd captain Salah to make sure I don't captain the same player as my rival who is 19 points ahead + possibly an extra differential in Redmond taking me up to 4 diffs.

        1. OldBenKenobi
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Don’t like losing Hazard for -4

        2. Steiger
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Good move imo

            Thanks! Perhaps I should have read the article top to tail!

        2. OldBenKenobi
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Might have been Joes job to do that and has been forgotten.

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

            Ah of course. He rightly has more important things to focus on.

      18. Lingard’s Shin Guards
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Jimmy > Zaha seems like a pretty obvious move?

        1. OldBenKenobi
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Not as obvious as you think

          1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            This

        2. Karan14
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          There are alot of options in the 7m range for strikers this week.

          1. Baps hunter
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 10 months ago

            Not so many, two for me. Shane Long and Danny Ings. But which one, is the question.

            1. Karan14
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 10 months ago

              Mitrovic, Wilson, Rashford, Deeney, Arnie, Rondon all have good fixtures and could haul.

              1. Baps hunter
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 10 months ago

                Fair play, I have rash 😉

                Yes they could, but hud (away) is the best opponent imo.

        3. pingissimus
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Not if you check out Wilf's record at Selhurst.

          How many goals has he scored this season? How many have come at home?

          The only good news is that that is where he gets assists - haven't checked but I assume all 3 were pens.

        4. FantaCity
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Lots of options for that transfer IMO, see below

        5. Don Kloppeone
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Was originally my Plan A but I have moved away from it.
          CRY home form is poor and BOU away form is conversely strong. Zaha himself has only returned twice at home this season. 1G vs WHU and 2As vs HUD. It is not a straightforward game at all imo.

          Prefer the slightly cheaper and puntier picks of Rondon, Mitro, Arnie personally if you are planning to drop Jimi

      19. FantaCity
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Haven't posted here for a while as I've been trying to do my own thing, but would really appreciate your advice.

        I'm top 4k ... my best season by far, mini leagues are won so I'm playing for OR, and don't want to mess up at the end.
        Here's my current team :

        Gunn Ryan
        TAT Laporte Duffy Valery Matip
        Sterling Mane Hazard Jota Hudson-Odoi
        Aguero Vardy Jimenez

        1 FT, 0.7 ITB and thinking of losing one of the Wolves attack. Players I'm considering are :
        - Zaha, Calvert-Lewin, Arnautovic and Wilson
        - Frazer, Milivojovic

        In general, do I go for one of the safer picks to consolidate my rank, or do I go all out to improve it with a punty pick. If so, which transfer do you favour?
        Many thanks

        1. Lazaretti
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          I like Calvert Levin pick but his finishing is not good enough when he gets scoring changes so that's why I would maybe pick Arnautovic. GL.

        2. OldBenKenobi
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Well hopefully Gunn plays.
          Other than that I would maybe lose either Jota or Jimenez for Redmond or Arnie?

          Kind of like the Arnie move slightly more and keep Jota.

        3. FantaCity
          • 11 Years

          TAA *

        4. Treadstone
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 10 months ago

          Would go Jiminez to Wilson myself.Palace reserve central defence looks to lack pace and Bournemouth have been great on the counter attack especially in recent away games.

      20. caldracula
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 10 months ago

        Who wins?

        Salah, Pogba, Rashford +5

        Mane, Sterling, Hazard

        Thanks

        Son + Neves + Robertson to Ozil + Wijnaldum + Laporte (-4)

            • 7 Years

        4 years, 10 months ago

        This season has been much less predictable than last season.

        This is proved by my performance in the talksport predictor game (correct scoring prediction for each PL game). I played this by selecting the shortest odds for each result/ correct score. You get points for correct result but wrong score.

        Last year: About 200th out of about 80,000 people.
        This year so far: 5425 out of 55,363 people.

        This will include people that gave up. You have to do it each week, and unlike in FPL, you don't have a zombie team, you have to make predictions to score anything. So I'm not even in the top 10% really.

        To have so many more games not going the way of the odds is quite strange. Why do you think that has happened?

      23. wulfrunian

        Do you think that Rashford will start against Cardiff?

          With the way he's playing, does it matter?
