Podcast

Scoutcast crew discuss Double Gameweek 24 assets and Rashford replacements

Join us for the latest episode of the Scoutcast on our YouTube channel tonight.

We will be live from 20:00 GMT to 21:00 GMT to debate the main topics of discussion in Fantasy Premier League at present.

Joe will be joined by Az and Lateriser12, who many will be familiar with through the site, Twitter and a recent Meet the Manager video.

Lateriser12, aka Pranil, is now inside the top 1,000 in Fantasy Premier League and will be discussing his rise up the ranks over the last few weeks and months.

The Scoutcast team will be considering replacements for the injured Marcus Rashford (£9.0m) but it’s fair to say that most of the focus will be on Liverpool and Double Gameweek 24, with Joe and his guests looking at defence, attack, captaincy, West Ham United punts and more.

Pranil takes his turn to pick a differential and there’s a regular look at the best bets for clean sheets, before tonight’s trio reveal their Gameweek 24 transfers.

    Best striker for 8.2m apart from Ings & DCL?

  3. JoeSoap
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Any preferences or any you would rule out?

    A. DCL/Kelly/Maddy/Robbo (-4)
    B. DCL/Aurier/Maddy/Gomez (-4)
    C. Jimmy/Soyu or Kelly/Maddy/Gomez
    D. Firmino/Soyu or Kelly/Doucore/Aurier (-4)
    E. Get Mane by taking out KDB (-4)

    Will have Salah & TAA

  4. Johnny Drama
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Short term:

    A) DCL
    B) Deeney

    1. HamezMace
      • 9 Years

  5. Ci Siamo

    4 years, 3 months ago

    I have analysed all the last away games in the last two seasons that Salah and Firmino have played together:

    Of the 26 away games I analysed:

    • 4 of 26 of these Salah got 8 or more points than Firmino

    • 12 of 26 of these Firmino got more points than Salah in general

    • 4 of 26 of these Firmino and Salah got the same points

    Take what you will of these stats

    1. Babit1967
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Interesting

  6. Piggs Boson
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Cresswell (TC)

    1. TheDragon
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Hauller (TC)

  7. ZTF
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Mane or Trent TC?

    1. Egg noodle
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      TAA

    2. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Do Trent. Do it

    3. Jusagoras
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Mane. Can't look past the quality of the chances he gets.

    4. mrtapio
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Coinflip imo. Leaning towards TAA

  8. Daghe Munegu
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Vardy Abraham to Kun DCL - 4 ?
    Yes or no?

  9. TheDragon
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    I reckon you can define people based on their TC/ C choice this week:

    Salah: Nostalgic
    Mane: Pragmatic
    TAA: Brave but calculated
    Firmino: Maverick
    Robbo/ VVD: Dreamer

    Which are you?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Normally pragmatic.

    2. Ragabolly
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Nostalgic (also Egyptian lol)

    3. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      West ham player: village idiot

    4. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Umm.. Salah has been comfortably out scoring Mane in he past 7 GW’s. He is the farthest forward and bossing the stats.

      1. TheDragon
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Is 7 GW’s the statistical sample standard?

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Fairly good indicator of form

        2. Cok3y5murf
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Yeah because Mane hauled right before that and he hates him, so he can't include that.

          1. Goonsquad245
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            And also Mane played 0 minutes in the first of those 7 games...

            1. Cok3y5murf
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Nah nah all those don't count when you're Irbox.

      2. Fpl Richie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        TC in play Irbs? I'm on magic mo myself.

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Yep never a better time with the length between fixtures and imminent rotation in the later GW’s

    5. One More Hit
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      57 points from Salah TC last year. Salah in my team name. Probably going to get 18 points from him all out this time but sod it

  10. JJeyy
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Maupay to Deeny for a hit?

    1. TheDragon
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Why on earth?

      1. JJeyy
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        watford looking good brighton looking bad

  11. Fpl Richie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Have taa/lund/Holgate. Interested to hear which is the better defensive upgrade next week...

    A. Soyuncu to Baldock
    B. Soyuncu to Ritchie
    C. Kelly to Lascelles/Clark/Fern
    D. Kelly to O'Connell/Egan
    E. Kelly to other (wat/sou/Williams)

  12. mrtapio
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Bench two:
    A: Dunk
    B: Lund
    C: Tanganga
    D: Williams
    Bench one:
    1: Greenwood (Think he'll start this GW)
    2: Grealish
    3: Ings

    Had to take a hit because of Rashford. Rash + Son > Vardy + Martial.

    McCarthy
    TAA(tc) l Tanganga l Williams l Dunk l Lund
    Salah l Mané l KdB l Martial l Grealish
    Vardy l Ings l Greenwood

  13. pingissimus
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Memory from last season.

    Not a DGW but Mo in 35 (?) was widely TC for a hattie from memory.

    Got green arrow with no Mo and Robbo C even though Robbo returned just a cs.

    The right combination could just be enough

  14. Rainer
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Shaw or Williams expected to start this GW?

    Having the chance of Williams starting Wednesday & in GW27 would be ideal.

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I can’t see Shaw playing 2 games in the space of 3 days. He looked knackered

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thought that was his normal look.

    2. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Williams. Though I bottled it for Holgate 🙂

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Carlo’s comments on the 3 CBs worry me but he’s looking a great pick!

  15. JohnBlack
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Anything worth a hit? 2.9itb
    Maybe Traore>>Moura/Mahrez or just play Kelly?

    McCarthy 
    TAA Robbo Soyuncu Kelly
    Salah KDB Maddison
    Jimenez Vardy Ings

    Traore Lundstram Guendouzi

  16. Sotamendi84
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    start 2?
    1) rico (BHA)
    2) targett (WAT)
    3) kelly (SOU)?

    1. JohnBlack
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      13

  17. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    What has happened to the “Never captain a defender” rule in FPL?

    Why would it change in a DGW?

    1. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Because Duffy was such a triumph last season 🙂

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Shane Duffy says hello 😆

      He makes Trent look a great pick, at least in comparison.

    3. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Laporte happened

    4. Cok3y5murf
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Recency bias rule never changed though, and TAA just got 10 points.

    5. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Can be a herd menality with these sort of things. I feel into the trap of captaining Shane Duffy last season.

      1. TheDragon
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        You can’t compare Duffy and TAA!

        Stats wise, why wouldn’t you captain TAA?

        1. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Stats are great and TAA is a an assist king. I just think that an attacking player will always have that higher points ceiling than a defender.

          1. TheDragon
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            If they get a clean sheet though he basically starts on 9 points and he is playing as an attacking winger on all set pieces

            1. Revival
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              With 1 clean sheet and 2 starts then Salah is starting on 5 points aswell before doing anything.

    6. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Is Taa a defender?!

    7. Dacra
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Trent 5 points total behind Salah..

    8. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Trent is on another level

    9. mrtapio
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      TAA has the best form in FPL right now

  18. THFC4LIFE
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Shocking season so far, at least I got a mention on the Scoutcast even if Az did pronounce it THE FC 4 LIFE lol

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      So you didn't get a mention then? 😛

      1. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Fell into that one didn’t I lol

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No imposters please 😉

      1. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Haha

    3. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Tooting Hartspurs

      1. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Lol

  19. Roy Rovers
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Need to sort the defence out.....worth doing these moves?

    Rico & Kelly > Lascelles & Stephens

    Ryan Martin
    TAA Soy Lundstram Rico* Kelly*
    Salah KDB Maddie Grealish Cantwell
    Vardy Firmino Ings

    1. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I would

  20. Thunder Warrior
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Abraham and Alli to Haller and Mane?

    1. Kay317
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yes

  21. Salarrivederci
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Play Doucouré or Greenwood?

    Rest of the team:

    Ryan
    TAA - AWB - Sidibé
    Salah(TC) - KDB - Mahrez - Maddison
    Vardy - Firmino

    (Button, Greenwood/Doucouré, Rico, Stephens)

    1. Saka Punch
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Doucoure

  22. Fishy
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Already have salah and taa so..
    Mane or firmino?

    1. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Mane

  23. HarryS
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Pick one to bring in?

    A) Ayew
    B) Maupay
    C) Deeney

  24. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Mane V Salah triple captaincy could define the rest of our lives. It's that important.

    1. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I’m hoping Liverpool lose both games 2-0

    2. TheDragon
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      A once in a generation decision

    3. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Salah TC’ers not having Mane, if he hauls, might.

      All fine otherwise.

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Conversely, Mane TC’ers will be left devastated after the inevitable Salah haul

        1. Rainer
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Owning Salah will still be beneficial.

    4. One More Hit
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Bigger one than world peace, without doubt

    5. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      It really is

    6. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      See comment above re week 35 last season

    7. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      This place will be a hoot when wolves win 1 nil.

  25. Totti
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    last decision before sleeping 🙂

    1) sell aguero to get salah? already owning mane

    A) yay B) nay if nay will get firmino then

    2) who to get from westham?

    A) snodgrass
    B) noble

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      1) nope...keep Aguero
      2) Snodgrass

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        do u think aguero will start?

        and what about snod mins?
        i found he didn't start alot

        1. Revival
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Yeah, he can be rested at the weekend in the FA cup. Snodgrass not 100% nailed but was in good form recently.

  26. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Hello friends. Team is

    Ryan
    Trent, Soy, Sidibe, Lundstram
    Salah, KDB, Grealish, Alli
    Vardy, Ings

    Ramsdale, Rico, Greenwood, Longstaff

    2.8 in the bank.

    A: Rico to Van Dijk for free
    B: Soy to Robbo for free
    C: Alli and Sidibe to Mane and Williams for -4

    1. JohnBlack
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      B

    2. Salarrivederci
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I'd do B actually.

      And bench Lundstram to field Greenwood

      1. Hybrid.power

        Thanks guys

  27. Peter Ouch

    Any news on bednareck injury?

    1. Totti
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      he's out tom.

  28. Conor Salmon for life
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone considering West Ham assets for double?
    On free hit and thinking Cresswell?

    1. Peter Ouch
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Only Joe and probably you

    2. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      They don’t appeal, but Randolph (save points) or Cresswell (goal or assist potential)would be my choices.

  29. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Rich to Martial?

    1. ljuta zena
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      ofcourse

  30. Hazardous1983
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Mane or salah captain?? Should i use tc

    1. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Salah has the form. Not sure I’d TC on 2 away games.
