Scoutcast discuss Aguero rotation and budget defences

2,682 Comments

The Scoutcast is back once again to cover the key discussion topics ahead of Gameweek 11.

David will be joined by Az and current FFS Mods and Cons joint-leader Andy Goddard this week.

The show will run from 20:00 GMT until 21:00 GMT. You can watch it on our YouTube channel.

Up first, the Scoutcast crew will reflect on a Gameweek 10 fraught with contrasting emotions.

Andy did exceptionally well – David and Az did not.

Then, moving forward into Gameweek 11, we will tackle the Manchester City rotation debate, how seriously to take Leicester’s recent form and whether budget defences are coming back into fashion once again.

    Just logging in here today. Haven't had time to scroll back.

    Safe to say people think Sterling, DSilva and KDB play the weekend, and also that Otamendi misses out again?

    Also it's pretty clear how UNCLEAR the Jesus and Aguero situation is.

    I am selling Otamendi tonight I think.
