Scoutcast discusses Pukki, Leicester and emerging FPL trends

After a long international break, the Scoutcast is back to discuss all the key talking points ahead of Gameweek 9.

You can watch it from 20:00 to 21:00 BST on our YouTube channel, or embedded in the article below.

For Episode 304, Joe is joined by Fantasy Football Scout editor David and special guest Sam Bonfield, one half of the well-known FPL Family.

Currently enjoying a 19k worldwide rank, Sam is a regular on the FPL Show, FPLFYI and the official FPL podcast.

She will be making her debut on the Scoutcast tonight after contributing to articles on Fantasy Football Scout over the last 12 months.

On the show tonight, we will be looking at what has become of Teemu Pukki (£7.1m) in recent weeks, as well as whether Leicester are a team we should be looking at going forward.

Finally, we will also be discussing how best we can pick up emerging trends in Fantasy, to make sure we are ahead of the curve on any upcoming bandwagons.

    After last night's brace from Pukki, surely we have to keep him don't we?

      Bolton is better than Armenia.

        Ha ha, that's my point

        Armenia have a better defence than BOU 😉

          Armenia 96th in the world. 20 places below South Africa. That says it all.

            Bournemouth's defensive record is 37,456,876 in the world

              all joking aside, this will be a good test to see where Pulling and Norwich in particular are at... if they lose 2 or 3 nil things will be starting to look bleak for them

            Ha!

        That's a really concerning point.

      I would say the majority on here are sellers, he's going nowhere yet for me though!

      I rate the player but he has to have chance to score them. Norwich not creating enough at the moment.

      Certainly wouldn't take a hit to get rid but if part of a bigger plan then I see nothing up with it.

      Yes, Bou next

    2 questions:
    1) Tomori or Rico?
    2) Keep Pukki or Haller? (The other one is going the journey for The Truth)

    1. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Pukki was very good last night, two goals for Finland and looked sharp...

    2. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      1)Tomori, 2) Pukki

  3. Offs!de

    Pukki+Cantwell out
    CWilson (c) + CHO in for a HIT?. Y / N
    .
    I have Tammy & Mount from Chelsea but I wanna take the risk of having three Chelsea players for next four GW in particular as I am chasing in my mini league.

    Thoughts???

      Tammy and Mount is becoming pretty template so I added in CHO on WC to add something different. Have seen a few WCs with Tomori and though he could be good value he makes getting CHO a little trickier. CHO played well and scored two great goals for the England u-21s last night

    Is Salah and Wickham to Mahrez and Abraham a sensible use of 2FTs?

    Team currently as follows:

    Pope

    Tomori Digne Otamendi Lundstram Montoya

    Son Sterling Salah Mount Cantwell

    Wickham Kane Pukki

    Obviously now normally bench Wickham from that attack, but with transfers would move Cantwell to bench instead. Thoughts?

    1. jia you
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Mahrez not a sure starter by any means... then again who is under Pep eh

      1. Ostrich Baby
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Quite, and he's getting decent minutes so far at least? I could do to KDB, but that would mean moving Pukki to Abraham, rather than Wickham (and starting Cantwell), which I'm less keen on at the moment.

        1. jia you
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 5 months ago

          I'm a Mahrez owning so I live in hope!

    2. Offs!de
      • 11 Years

      I wouldn't lose Salah before ManU

      1. Ostrich Baby
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 5 months ago

        Not fully fit though is he? Lot of money sitting on the bench if he doesn't play

  5. Miguel Sanchez

    WC team with 1.5 ITB for Kane switch to Kun/Auba next GW. Any thoughts?

    Pope
    TAA Pereira Boly
    Mané KDB Mount CHO
    Kane (c) Wilson Abraham

    McGovern Lundstram Rico Dendocker 1.5 ITB

    1. Ostrich Baby
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 5 months ago

      Lovely team. Bit dependent on Chelsea goals, but like it on the whole, and we all need to take some risks.

  6. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years

    Play Dunk or Lund this gw?

  7. MARVELLUS
    • 14 Years

    G2G? £1.0 ITB

    Pope
    TAA Otamendi Mings
    Salah Sterling KDB Mount Cantwell
    Wilson Abraham

    Button Rico Lundstram Connolly
