The Scoutcast returns tonight in the build-up to Gameweek 13, starting at 20:00 GMT on our YouTube channel.

As the international draws to a close we are looking ahead to the next round of action as well as the upcoming winter schedule.

Between now and the end of the calendar there will be eight Gameweeks so it’s important to get our planning just right.

In episode 308, Joe will be joined by Tom Freeman and Holly Shand.

Between the three of them, they boast a total of 17 finishes inside the top 10k, so we’re expecting some excellent insight.

As well as discussing the frantic festive period, Mason Mount (£6.8m) comes under scrutiny in light of Christian Pulisic’s (£7.4m) recent form and the mid-price Leicester options.

Meanwhile, many Fantasy managers are contemplating how to invest in Liverpool over the coming weeks with the age-old debate about double-defence or double-attack the focus of discussion tonight.

    Park the Bus Mourinho made the TOT defenders suddenly appealing. TOT attack - not so much.

        That Spurs team is way better offensively than United were and while he is a defensive minded manager (or pragmatist) he likes his attackers to have freedom and for that you need good players.

      Pope Heaton
      Taa Lundy Rico — Lascelles Tomori

      Tammy Rashford Vardy

      - 0.1m short to do sterling >> mane
      - 0.1m short to do Lascelles/Rashford >> Robbo/Ings (-4)

      A: Save FT and reassess next gw
      B: Sterling + Cantwell (price drop imminent) >> Mane + Dendocker (-4)
      C: Mount + Rashford >> Maddison + Jimenez (-4)...and avoid playing 2 Chelsea attackers vs. city

      Defence, pick 1 from Lunds, Soy

      Front 7, drop 1 from Maddison, Mane, McGinn, Pulisic, KDB, Tammy, Jimi, Vardy

      Thanks!

        Lund ..no doubt...

      First time in my life as a Spurs fan that i feel so "empty"......

        Poch had to go, results business. How can a so called top team have poor record.

        Try being a Mayo supporter, 0/9.

      Now where to put a 5.4 Toby/Rose in a TAA/Robbo/Lundstram/Soy starting def.

      343 with TAA Lund and rotating Spurs def w Soy/Rico
      or
      442 with TAA Toby/Rose Lund rotate Soy/Rico

      1. Penang Sandman
        • 12 Years

        add another Shu def into the mix, we might go 532 this time

      Very surprised by all the comments about Poch being sacked. It’s not just about the results (and they are bad let’s face it) it’s also about their game which is poor.
      All day long we can read here « avoid spurs » and now Poch being sacked is a disgrace.

      Looks to me like it’s a good decision. Some key players have let him down, starting with eriksen who’s has been the team engine for years, there have been some really shocking displays at the back which really questioning the willingness of the whole team to fight back. Something’s broken here and let’s be honest, reaching the UCL final last year was quite lucky for them.

      But the prospects for the new coach are great. Some young players, some real established ones, great signings so good potential.

      As an FPL and football POV, can’t help thinking this will push spurs up

      1. Peter Ouch
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Jose will make spurs great again

          Again...

      2. COYS Down Under

        6 years, 1 month ago

        Unfortunately its just so much easier to drop a manager than a bunch of players. Obviously a lot behind the scenes but this constant trend of firing managers and not under performing players is odd.

    8. Peter Ouch
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Players with winning mentality will due on the pitch for Jose.
      Kane and son are 2 of them.

      In December it looks like we need to find the money to get at least one of them in.

      1. Peter Ouch
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

      2. GreennRed

        Should be a given from professional elite athletes.

        1. COYS Down Under
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          And yet its not.

          1. GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Too much money for mediocrity. I don't mean Spurs by the way, usually give their all. That's why I like Sheffield United right now, hear, skill goid tactics, no showboaters.

        2. Peter Ouch
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          You saw it on utd.

          These kids didn't play for him at all.

          Jose can take the best out of his players only when the players are behaving like men and not like boys.

          You saw it in inter Milan, he had players with big balls that they were willing to die for him, they left everything in the pitch and the won the treble.

          In utd, you have only baby moaning, starting from Pogba.

          Jose style was and always is aggressive..
          If you insult men, they will try to prove you wrong, if you insult babies they will kill you behind your back.

          1. GreennRed

            Jesus you're going all Handmaids Tele at the end there Pete 😉

            1. Peter Ouch
              • 7 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Hahaha!
              I am not even a Spurs fan mate, I just think that Jose is still a great manager of he can fund the right players!

      3. Drexl Spivey
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Plenty of great players at his last two clubs.

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Chelsea were something else in his first reign. Front to back tgrowing tgemselves in front of everything and majestic Terry and Carvahlo.

          1. Peter Ouch
            • 7 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Exactly, players with balls.
            Terry carvalho Lampard Drogba makelele essien gallas

        2. Peter Ouch
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Skills wise yes.
          Mentality no.

          That's also the difference in liverpool, not the skills, the mentality that klopp brought to them

      4. Rolls-Royce
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Most people here slagging Spurs for getting Mourinho thinks they can manage better than one of the most successful managers in his era.

        1. Drexl Spivey
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          So his last two tenures don't count?

    9. Rolls-Royce
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Mou is back, he just loves London clubs. Could be the rise of Mourinho part II.

    10. Party time
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Kane to drop even deeper now. Sergeant Aurier essential!!!

      • LǝgleSs e|even

        RIP Spurs.
        Now let's get Ole the sack and get Poch in and hope he brings his loyal players in the next window.
        United needs a Korean player once again

        1. Rolls-Royce
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Spurs vs United on Dec 5th. Could be great if Poch comes to United before that.

      • Arteta
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Who do we replace Emery with?

        1. GreennRed
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Nagelsmann?

        2. LǝgleSs e|even
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Rafa

          1. GreennRed
            • 14 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Good shout.

        3. Party time
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Neil Warnock

          • Konstaapeli
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Anyone

          • Rolls-Royce
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Tony Pulis.

            1. Penang Sandman
              • 12 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              match made in heaven

            Howe

          • Party time
              6 years, 1 month ago

              Poch actually the best replacement for the gooners

              1. ‘Tis the Season
                • 7 Years
                6 years, 1 month ago

                No chance

            Jose mourinho is going to tear the Spurs team apart. Can’t see this appointment being long term. There’s no way he will las, clashing with Levy about transfers and not bringing in academy players. With the new stadium, Jose won’t have the kitty he always demands. Watch this space Spurs fans, it’s going to a roller coaster. Feel for Poch. Bayern lucky to have him.

            1. DAZZ
              • 11 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              You think Mourinho would have taken the job without promises and guarantees? No chance.

              1. ‘Tis the Season
                • 7 Years
                6 years, 1 month ago

                Levy covered himself contractually, I can assure you. He has a way of the Jose strop.

          • Rolls-Royce
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Fair play to Jose for taking up such an uphill challenge with Spurs while he could've had offers from a bigger club with larger transfer kitty and a huge paycheck. I doubt Pep would have had balls to do it.

            1. COYS Down Under
              • 10 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              No way he’s turned down a bigger offer since he was sacked. This is his first good chance.

          • LǝgleSs e|even
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Meanwhile Zlatan gets busy on the phone.

            Bit of a weird one, but what do you think are the chances of Kelly matching VVD this week?
