Joe is joined by David and Karam for the latest episode of the Scoutcast tonight.

You can watch it on our YouTube channel from 8pm BST to 9pm BST.

This episode overlaps with the return of European football to our screens.

Liverpool and Chelsea take on Napoli and Valencia respectively as the Champions League group stages get underway on Tuesday night.

We will have Scout Notes on those matches on Wednesday, but for now, there’s a brand new episode of the Scoutcast to occupy your attention.

On tonight’s agenda are the best cheap defenders now that the premium ones have frustrated their owners.

We’ll also discuss how best to cover Manchester City in the wake of their surprise defeat at Norwich.

Finally, we’ll debate how to recover from a poor start to the season as many managers have endured a tough few weeks.

    Anyone think that Mane could outscore Salah? At least for the forseeable?

    Salah's on corners and pens of course

      He has last two.
      Might get both soon instead.

        I think both is the way to go long term. Covers clean sheets a bit too.

        If Sterling flops then a straight swap to Mane is inevitable and all three can be accomodated if both KDB and Son are dropped.

        This is why I'm staying away from the premium strikers.

        is it not a bad time to be getting Liv players TM ?

        tough run coming up...

        was thinking of dropping mane to allow Aubamayng...

        Have Son KDB Sterling in midfield .....

      get both, captain Salah away, Mane at home. Sorted.

      Over the season, Salah will pull away from Mane in my opinion due to pens and set pieces like you say

          Excellent stat. Of course last season there was a big price discrepancy (going for Firmino over Mane killed my early season along with King over a cheaper Wilson) that is now just .9.

      Which of my defenders would you transfer out, if any, and who would you bring in? Not seeing any good options really! Possibly remove a Liverpool defender. VVD to Mings, Aurier, Tomori or Söyüncü perhaps?

                  Don't think that justifies a wildcard tbh. Ceballos I'm fine with for 1 more week unless he starts in Europa. VVD can downgrade and free up a Wesley upgrade easy. Montoya to someone not worth a - 4 probs

                  Ceballos isn’t urgent with Villa at home next. Emery may stumble on the winning team and formation. If he doesn’t, then Wesley could benefit - they were so bad vs Watford.
                  VVD is never a bad pick but the double up may be too much.
                  Montoya has Newcastle if he’s over his tonsillitis.

              Lloyd Kelly played in a friendly. Rico is a trap. Barnes stats still good & Leicester stats good defensively.

              Abraham up with a tough fixture.

              No from me, which probably means it'll pay off at this rate.

                    That's the problem - I don't know what I think. I have my doubts still as losing the likes of Salah and Sterling is a big risk. What would you do?

                      My team is like your current one but with Aguero. Could switch to the other one soon.
                      Tomorrow may give you the answer.

                        I think it's not having a premium striker that's getting me - if I had Aguero or Auba with that team I'd be happier but can't find a route with FT (you seem to have gained a lot of Team value quickly) I'm currently on a 101.7

                          Don't let not having a premium forward get to you, plenty of budget forwards matching them if not doing better.

                    That's one of the things I'm worried about that's keeping me from making the move - do you think the current team is good enough to wait it out or will the likes of Auba/Son etc. make the move worth it?

                      I think your current team is worth riding for al ittle longer, just to see really if things have set a trend or if things improve. Personally i'd be a bit worried about Auba's service without Lacazette and Pepe looks a bit lost. Son, he's had one good game, against a dier Palace side, need to see mroe from him imo.

                        Yeah I think you could be right! No matter what decision I make the opposite will end up having been the best anyways. Always the way!

                        Could still wait it out on that and just hope that I'm not priced out

              Aurier i guess will be rotated, not a fan of the defence, but good attack

                Maybe wiser after tomorrow. But I have kind of good backups after next GW If he gets rotated...

              its not bad you know ....

              I kind of like Tomori even though chelsea dont look great defensively... the fixtures are class! like they surely keep out some of those teams... will he definitely keep his place ? how long is rudiger out for ?

                Thats what I was thinking as well. Chelsea have played vs good attacking teams and their fixtures are juicy. I think Tomori is ahead of Christensen and Zouma atm. And if they play with 3 CBs, Tomori is super safe starter imo

                Yeah maybe for the next GW. But I have 0,0 ITB.. could downgrade Aurier for him. Maybe after tomorrow, lets see

            Mount injury has removed the dilemma of benching Cantwell this week 🙂

            Kinda hope he’s out for the Liverpool game only when you consider Chelsea’s fixture run.

              Yeah. Hope he’s fit for this GW or the next one, will likely be forced to sell otherwise.

              Would you have Lundstram first on the bench rather than Rico??

              he is going to make room for aguero as sterling is getting a transfer out also.

              But then Barnes after next week could make his way out for tammy.

                Can’t have em all. Others like Sterling will start firing again and then people will scramble to get him back.

                Plus he burned me so hard when Arsenal had excellent fixtures last Christmas. So it go.
