New start time for Scoutcast in 2019/20

The Scoutcast is back for Gameweek 2 and will broadcast today at a new earlier time.

For the rest of the 2019/20 season, the show will run from 20:00 to 21:00 UK time on Tuesday evenings (where possible) on our official YouTube channel.

This is to ensure fewer late nights both for our Scoutcasters and our viewers too!

The Scoutcast made history ahead of Gameweek 1 as we overtook Last of the Summer Wine for total episodes.

The famous sitcom ran for a total of 295 episodes between 1973 and 2010.

Last week, we the Scoutcast’s episode count went to 296 and we were joined by one of the show’s long-time guest Granville.

After such a momentous episode, we felt like making history for a second week running.

Ahead of Gameweek 2, we are joined by founder of Fantasy Football Community Holly Shand, who will be the first female guest on the Scoutcast.

The maths teacher and mother of one has only been playing Fantasy Premier League a short time but already has an impressive record.

In five seasons playing the game, she has two top 10,000 finishes and has already started the 2019/20 with 94 points scored in Gameweek 1.

Holly will join regulars Joe, Luke and Az to discuss all the key talking points ahead of Gameweek 2.

That includes what to do with potential Harry Kane and Anthony Martial bandwagons as well as how to handle our transfers in the coming days.

As ever, you can watch live on our YouTube channel but after the broadcast is over, the Scoutcast will be available on the usual platforms.

    how to fit kane in this team?

    ryan button
    TAA VVD digne walker peters rico
    salah sterling moura fraser dendonker
    jimenez king greenwood

    0.5 in the bank

    1. AuFeld
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Sterling ~> Hayden, King ~> Kane for a -4

    2. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Salah -> Martial
      King -> Kane

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Sell Salah or Sterling

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        no i can't mate 🙂
        will hurt me easily

        1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          That leaves a plethora of possibilities then

        2. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          KWP to Montoya, Moura to Trossard/Buendia and Jimenez to Kane (and then you have my squad)

          1. Miguel Sanchez
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Plus Fraser to Perez (-12)

            1. Totti
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              nooooo 🙂
              i think
              fraser -> macginn
              and moura -> 5.5 midfielder
              gives me 4 million plus 0.5 itb
              then king-> kane easily for -4 next week
              will save free transfer this week
              what do u think mate?

              1. Business Cat
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Prices will eventually move.

                Exact pricing now won't help you unless you lock it in

                You need to budget 0.5m more to overcome the inevitable 0.1m shortfall

                1. Totti
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  do u think that macginn and kane will rise before gameweek 2

                  1. Business Cat
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 9 Years
                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    Hard to say, the markets seem frozen at the minute despite transfers being made.

                    Kane more so than McGinn could rise in price since the general public has head of him 🙂

              2. Miguel Sanchez
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 7 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                That's not too bad but we'll be lucky to get one decent 5.5 mid, let alone two

          2. Totti
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            hahahahahhahaha
            may be this

        3. Marmalade Forest
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          It’s your only real option without ripping it apart.

          You had about 10 weeks to sort this out before GW1. You decided to pick Sterling and Salah with the premium defenders and two strikers. You made your bed. Lie in it. Or wildcard.

          Downgrade Moura, VVD, TAA and upgrade Jiminez if you don’t want to go without Salah and Sterling. It’d be an awful decision.

    4. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      TAA -> AWB/Maguire
      Moura -> McGinn
      Jiminez -> Kane

      -8

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        not this week mate will wait to get him in against newcastle
        no need for him against man u

        1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          why the post then? 🙂

          1. Totti
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            cuz i want to know how to make it early to avoid any surprises 🙂

    5. Slitherene
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      TAA to Maguire
      Moura to McGinn
      Jimenez to Kane

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        thanks mate 🙂

    6. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'd wait. Don't take a hit. He's far from essential

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        ok will wait this week
        but i'm afraid against newcastle 🙂
        might hurt me easily 🙂
        he's the obvious captain

    7. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Wait on Sonny

    8. thepeen555
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      You don’t you have a spurs midfielder and leave it at that imo

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        kane might hurt me against newcastle 🙂
        he's the obvious captain

    9. Team17
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      You appear to have 16 players....

      But Moura and Fraser to 4.5 mids

      Greenwood to Kane.

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Walker-Peters not Walker Pieters

    10. Redalert
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Downgrade Pool defender and moura and upgrade King

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        do u think this is a good option?
        or leave the team as it is?

  2. acidicleo
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Play one..
    A) Zinchenko (TOT)
    B) Lundstram (CRY)
    C) Montoya (WHU)

    Cheers

    1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      A

    2. AuFeld
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Zinc.

    3. Totti
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      very tough 🙂
      i think the 3 might play easily
      but i'm leaning towards montoya

    4. Goat
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      C

    5. acidicleo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Cheers guys..
      I am thinking C too..
      Did Lundstram play in an advanced role?

  3. MadeinIreland
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Anyone care to give me their view on which of the following players are likely to be benched this coming week?

    Ederson, Heaton
    TAA, VVD, Digne, KWP, Guilbert
    Salah, Sterling, Perez, Barkley, Dendocker
    Wilson, Jota, Greenwood

    Thanks...

    1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Guilbert, Greenwood, maybe Barkley

      1. MadeinIreland
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Hmmm I suspect you are correct.

        No hope for Guilbert?

        I’m trying to prioritise transfers

        1. MadeinIreland
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Also KWP - Is Aurier a treat this week?

          1. MadeinIreland
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Threat

        2. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Not sure about Guilbert, but did not start GW1 🙁

    2. The Big Fella
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Extremely similar team to mine

    3. Pieterke30
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Greenwood, Guilbert and maybe Perez

  4. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Do you think Ndombele is an fpl option in Spurs side?

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      i do not

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        do you?

        1. dunas_dog
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Thanks- No - just looking for possible Trossard replacement week 3 and price/ fixture good

    2. Totti
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      i think no
      will play very deep next matches

    3. HeDoesntWantIt
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      No, don’t let that goal fool you. Similar role to sissoko who is only 5.0

      1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        He will score more goals than Sissoko this season.
        He already did matter of fact.

  5. el polako
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Just realised that season 2 of Dark is available on Netflix !
    Happy days !

    Might have to re-watch season 1 though as it is a bit confusing.

    1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Was afraid, but season 2 is good

    2. MTPockets
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah I would. Season 2 is even better

      • IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        It was awesome. Best ever. Gonna rewatch all of it. Seen first season like 4 times now lol.

      • badgerboy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Think the new series of Mindhunter comes out this week as well.

      • FCSB
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        What is it about?

        1. Sgt Frank Drebin
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Eine Reise durch die Zeit

      • Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        It's reyt confusing. I haven't got s clue what's happening but I'm on episode 6 season 2

      • Lacabacca
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Rewatching season 1 is a great idea! I considered doing that a couple of episodes into season 2 but decided against it. One of the rare series where the second season is far better than the first one imo.

    3. Arsenal97
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Rashford 6m mid (suggest)
      Or
      Pukki Martial

      1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Rash Barkley could work. Fixtures are good for both.

      2. acidicleo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Mcginn?

      3. Nr.10
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I am leaning to that move as well. Is Barkley Nailed? Or is Mount a better move?

        1. Arsenal97
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Yes i saw mount on corners last night

        2. acidicleo
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Would stay clear of Chelsea for now..

      4. Nr.10
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I will not jump on board on the Rashford train just jet. Will see how they are handling Wolves first

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

      Why are people ripping up their teams just cos a few players didn’t score? I made that mistake last year then those players all scored points in GW2!

      1. AC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        No big deal, like anything else in life lots of different thoughts and opinions

      2. acidicleo
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Because united shocked a lot of them

      3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Patience is a virtue in fpl. It's what seperate the consistent players from the maniacs

    5. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Play this week:

      A - KWP
      B - Lunds
      C - Dendo

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Cool, that's the exact order I have them in currently. I'll stick with that then.

    6. Nr.10
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Siggy for Mount/ barkley so I can do Deoloufeu --> Rashford.

      1) smart move (dont have United cover)?
      2) who will play most minutes, Barkley or Mount?

      1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        To paraphrase someone here:
        It's always a smart move to ship a player that has had a single bad GW in order to get one that has

          Thanks !

          That has not*

          Has what? The suspense is killing me!

          1. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            It has or it is?

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

        Hold off for a week, i would hope Siggy will pick up a few points

        1. Nr.10
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Thanks ! I would like to
          But it is an interesting though to have a United penalty taker with VAR and all that

          1. AC
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Fingers crossed Everton get a penalty and siggy takes it, Wolves should be a tough game for Man U. We probably need a little more data before making united moves.

            1. Nr.10
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Sticking with Siggy 4 a while. As you say, Wolves is a really tricky fixture.

          2. Business Cat
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Watching the Scoutcast now, they said on there that OGS has adopted an "if you win the penalty, you take it" rule...so Rashford's not a designated penalty taker

            1. Nr.10
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Oh Interesting. We will see in the future. Thanks for the replay

            2. acidicleo
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              So nobody's assist then?

              1. Nr.10
                • 9 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                If that's really true. Then yes

            3. AC
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Goes a little against some of the old school conventional wisdom that was if you've been hacked down in the box probably best you let someone else take it. Interesting approach.

    7. Pino
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Porto losing 0-3 at home against Krasnodar in the 3. qualification round. Porto won the away game 1-0. Need to score now 5 goals in second half to go to next round.

      1. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Don't they just need to score 3 goals to advance?

        1. Pino
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          They do, my mistake.

      Which 3 player combo would you prefer from GW3 onwards....

      Fraser Siggy Rashford
      Martial Siggy Wilson
      Martial Son Barnes
      Iwobi Son Rashford

      1. Eat my goal!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Martial son Barnes

      2. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Martial & Son, sure

        Not Barnes though...Pukki perhaps

      3. Bruce Lee
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Martial Son Barnes

      4. The Seagulls and the Trawle…
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        3, but monitor iwobi

      5. AuFeld
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Martial, Son, and Barnes looks the most attractive to me.

      6. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Martial Son and Barnes.Tammy if you can afford him.

        Son may be a risky pick gw3 though unless Poch says he deffo starts.

      7. AC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Number 2 is a nice combination

      8. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Martial Son Barnes

      9. Lebowski85
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Brillian. Thanks for the feedback.

        Martial Son Barnes/Pukki is my preferred choice.

        Obviously next week can change things but I was always looking to swap Siggy/Wilson for Son/6.5

      10. Camzy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Martial, Son, Barnes by a landslide.

      11. Bruce Lee
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        this is a rare post where everyone has voted for the same option

        i would therefore avoid this option

    9. @FPLDIARYFPL
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Did anyone else watch the utd game and think utd looked very poor?? Can see a wolves win GW2.

      1. thepeen555
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah it’s possible, but then wolves were pretty pants too

      2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Hard to say.. I watched Chelsea collapse. Can't really judge UTD as Chelsea defence was non existant

      3. Bruce Lee
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        yeah they gave the ball away way too much and chelsea had countless chances that they failed to convert

        1. Bruce Lee
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          casuals with de gea, awb and maguire didn't complain though

          1. @FPLDIARYFPL
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            wouldn't touch their defence on that performance!!

          2. George Sillett
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            What about the non casuals who own one of them ?
            The obsession with casuals on here is a joke.

        2. @FPLDIARYFPL
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Martial and Rashford do look good options right now but I think its worth waiting to see the wolves game to see how much was down to the shoddy chelsea defence.

          1. Bruce Lee
            • 5 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            true - i think the attack is good... any attack with martial and rashford who look happy to play their style of play will be deadly...

            utd's defence will for sure be leaky even with maguire... but maybe i'm wrong though

      4. AuFeld
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Wolves may be a little tired after Thursday. Four matches in 14 days?

        1. @FPLDIARYFPL
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          True. seem to be playing first team in europe. Will see if that is still the case now PL has begun.

        2. Eat my goal!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Wolves are at home and 4-0 up, unlikely to make an impact

      5. Alan Watts
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Pogba transfer might be fly in the ointment here....

        Where will the creativity come from in the middle if he goes?

        Anyone think he'll go?

    10. thepeen555
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Think I am going to remove Kane for Pukki this week. Love Pukki I feel it in my bones. Love a punt.

      1. AC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        What will you do with the money?

        1. thepeen555
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Make the sterling move next game week

          1. AC
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            If you are swapping Sterling for Kane it makes sense

            1. thepeen555
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Yeah I got salah, and auba, Kane and Kdb atm.

              Plan to wildcard in a few weeks possibly once I see what arsenal mids and mcfc nailed defenders look like.

              Kane our Pukki in. Then likely son in for Kdb and then a sterling change. Possibly the wild card time or just a -8

              1. AC
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 11 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Maybe one captain too many there, I'm sure your defense or midfield must suffer a little maybe downgrade and move the money elsewhere

                1. thepeen555
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  Yeah auba is until I see what arsenal mid is like. I.e. Ceballos.

                  Then it’s likely Pukki, greenwood as a sub and maybe Haller or someone around that region.

                2. thepeen555
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  Idea is for 5 pretty solid ish midfielders this year

                  1. AC
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 11 Years
                    4 years, 7 months ago

                    Possibly worth keeping one expensive forward, will allow you to move quickly if any premium forward goes on a good run of form

                    1. thepeen555
                      • 7 Years
                      4 years, 7 months ago

                      Yeah it’s a tough call as I probably would like Pepe but then wouldn’t prob have enough money. Will be a play around and see.
                      As long as I cover the main top clubs I don’t mind so much.

                      Anything different to win my league lol

                • 6 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                I ditched Kane for Pukki and Fraser for Salah now. Auba to Kane is plan for next week. Sterling will rise and I didn't want to be priced out.

                1. Baps hunter
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 6 Years

                  Fraser for Sterling 😉 Sorry.

                2. thepeen555
                  • 7 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  Makes sense the moves you did. Sterling still hasn’t rose and it’s still on my mind. But it is spurs. If mcfc hammer them then well I will be shocked.

                  Kdb I have, he is a steady point earner imo and sterling is like a blow out kinda guy. So if I remove Kdb I gotta be sure it’s right.

                  Sterling goes off track everyone near enough does. I need the differential

        1. thepeen555
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          He does look good again. Watched him last season in championship. I know PL a different kettle of fish but the way they play is for goals.

        Apparently Lundstram might not play and Freeman might come in.

        A

      3. @FPLDIARYFPL

          I'm in a similar situation il play Perez, hopefully Chelsea problems are not sorted for a week or two

    12. Good Times
      • 10 Years

      Who would you start of these three
      Cathcart (eve)
      Hayden (nor)
      Dendoncker (MUN)

      1. thepeen555
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        None sound great but Watford might be best bet this week

      2. Greasy Grealish Gang
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Dendoncker. He's nailed, right?

        I emailed them to state the disapproval of many. Not had anything back yet

    14. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      who would you bench Trossard, Moura or Montoya?

      Currently benching Moura!

      1. FPL_JAAFAR
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Tross

      2. AuFeld
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Montoya. Moura and Trossard (if starting) has a higher floor vs Montoya who can lose points by conceding goals.

        1. Rinseboy
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          this is my debate. I just cant see Moura getting anything from City game

          1. AuFeld
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            FWIW, the Spurs had the second highest xG last week and MCI was mid-table for expected goals against.

            1. Rinseboy
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              thanks for this. Food for thought for sure

      3. Lacabacca
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Definitely not Moura

      4. AC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Trossard, the other 2 are guaranteed a start

      5. Pieterke30
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Defo Moura

      6. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Why would you bench Moura and play Montoya

        No way West ham don't score

    15. FPL_JAAFAR
      • 9 Years

      What i understood is that jonty wants you to sell robbo and take as many hits as needed. Yay

      1. TheDragon
        • 5 Years

        Seems sensible

        I’ve already taken a -12 in solidarity

        1. AuFeld
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          I have a -12 minimum per game week.

    16. wolves_simmo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Moura to Martial or hold?

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I'm getting so close to doing this. worried the prices rises are hard to track and he will rise over night soon and I'll miss it. Seems all a bit wierd this year with prices

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

          Exactly.

      2. The Polymath
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Surely you know Moura is going to do better then Martial in GW2!

        😉

        1. Bruce Lee
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          come on you wolves

        2. Rinseboy
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          oh for sure if I make the move. Moura will gran a goal and you boys will hold us to a 0-0 on Monday!

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

          Hopefully he is quiet, but this would soften the blow if he wasn't.

          1. The Polymath
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Makes sense. I'm probably getting him in GW3.

      3. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Well this is just my thinking but Martial has a potential to be one of the biggest bargains of the season, if he stays nailed then with his 0.5 xG per game he is about to score around 20 goals and this is for a 7.5 midfielder. Whereas Moura will probably lose his place sooner or later but probably with Son back unless they change a formation. I guess couple of fixtures don't make that much difference but I guess you will be probably priced out of this move soon....

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

          Agreed.
          Was hoping to hold out after the Liverpool game tomorrow night make sure no freak injuries to salah, as then I’d look at other options. All being well I could then press on with Moura out Martial in. Hopefully Martials price doesn’t go up tonight.

        2. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          xG doesn’t work like that. it has close to 0 significance after one game. you need about 7-8 gws before is becomes reliable

          1. Sgt Frank Drebin
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            This is from his last season ... Don't remember exactly but he had a it at little bit above 0.4 but he also always overperforms xG so let's say he scores 0.5 goals per game. Previous seasons are also at the this level within a small variance

            1. Sgt Frank Drebin
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Well I checked and he had 0.44 xG last season and 0.36 in the previous one. His first two weren't that good however with something around 0.2 xG.

              0.77 in the game against Chelsea

    17. KingGriffin
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Going to bank the transfer for this week. Wondering if I should start Moura against City or Lundstram who has Palace at home

      1. GE
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Play Moura IMO

    18. Burger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Bilva to Martial?

      1. AuFeld
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Makes sense to me. IMO, Bernardo Silva was never a promising FPL prospect.

          Haven't decided, but probably one of Bernardo/Moura going.

        Good game at Celtic park, 3-3 with Cluj.

          No surprise that Scottish clubs struggling in Europe again.

          The Scottish league in terms of competition really does suck.

            The format of the competitions don't really help them, 3 qualifying rounds whilst the likes of Chelsea and Spurs go straight to the groups, might as well just start the European leagues already.

            It's way more about money than competition. The Scottish League is mainly filled with teams containing crap players due to a lack of it . Bayern for ages had little in the way of domestic competition but still performed in Europe.

          Actually there is no such thing. It's a fantasy game and it's not real 😆 but
          I'd say he's the most intresting out of them all by far. I'd rather listen to him than any of these other YouTube drainers. Seems a nice guy and his head isn't up his arse like the rest of them.

          That's my view anyway. Subjective I guess

        Play Lundstram somehow? And for who? Or keep on the bench?

        Pope
        Robertson/VVD/Digne/Zinch
        Salah/Sterling/KDB/Perez
        Jota/King

        Bench: Button, Lundstram, Dendoncker, Wickham

        1. Bruce Lee
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

        2. AuFeld
          • 7 Years

          Have you considered starting Dendonker over Lundstram and Zinc?

        Pope
        Robbo VVD Rico Kiko

            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Very good prospect if they can sort the defence out and not have zouma who should rejoin the the paw patrol gang and not play football
