Scoutcast crew discuss how to handle Man City assets and Harry Kane

The Scoutcast crew have some important issues to discuss ahead of Gameweek 17.

The latest episode will broadcast from 20:00 GMT to 21:00 GMT on our YouTube channel.

Manchester City players are starting to wane in terms of popularity but with a trip to Arsenal on Sunday, there’s every chance they punish their sellers.

With very few of Pep Guardiola’s assets offering appeal right now, we sift through some of the strategies around them.

Joe is joined by David and Karam for the latest episode to talk about Manchester City.

Also on the agenda is what to do about Harry Kane (£10.9m), who flattered to deceive in the early games of Jose Mourinho’s Spurs reign, but exploded against Burnley.

Finally, we will discuss how best to approach Gameweek 18 when Liverpool and West Ham experience a blank thanks to the Club World Cup.

    Start Soy or Doherty? I know a CS is much more likely for the former but if they both concede then the latter has a much higher chance of attacking returns. Plus I love him.

          I see.....FPL is about having fun and Doherty is definitely a fun player to own. However, Soy against Norwich has higher CS potential than Doherty v Spurs and is still a threat from set pieces, I'd probably bench Doherty, reluctantly.

            Tough one isn't it? Not wanting to bench Doh because of his attacking threat has cost me points both this and last season so I'll probably do that, gonna think it over some more first.

          Well you can....and managers do. Plenty of young gifted players get sent to the gym to beef up a bit when they hit our league....I think Pulisic might benefit from that.

          Won’t make any difference to us as an FPL pick...we only want his forward play anyway.

            100% He could be an Aquilani, not talking about position or physique. A few good PL games and then back to his old league. It's the size of the fight in the dog for me though and his attitude doesn't lack too much. He'll be a beast if he does bulk up.
