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.

    What to do?
    A) Hayden to Snodgrass for -4
    B) Play Rico

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years

      B

    TAA or robbo as C, or just go Mane? Chasing.....

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Don't chase. Slow down, let others make mistakes. Go defender C now, loadsaGWleft if this GW is not yours.

    if you had to start one this week, who gets the nod:

    Traore (liverpool H)
    Fleck (MCI H)
    Kelly (south H)
    Rico (BHA H)

    and what would your bench order be for the other three that do not make the cut?

    thanks and good luck

    1. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years

      Kelly
      Rico
      Fleck
      Traore

  5. royals forever
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    For this team which transfer would you do

    Pope > Allison
    KDB > Salah

    Gazzaniga Pope

    Pereira Lundstram Holgate Kelly Guilbert

    Mane KDB Maddison Grealish Dendoncker

    Firmino Vardy Maupay

    Any ideas would be welcomed

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      neither
      get trent in for pereira

  6. ooooo
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    McCarthy
    Trent Soy Lund
    Salah Mane KDB Traore
    Jiminez Vardy Ings

    Button Rico Dendonker Kelly

    Save? 0.6itb and 1Ft

    1. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I’d start both Rico and Kelly over both Lundstram and traore.

      1. Dthinger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        the problem is that they are both at risks of being benched now.

        1. Big Al Stankovic
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Nah, Ward will take the lb position, as he did when he got subbed on.
          Rico I’m not so confident in, but at home to brighton and on set pieces, could be worth it.

  7. The_FF_King
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Is Abraham to Ings for free a no brainier tonight before price changes?

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

      Plenty of Ings owners benching thinking Ralph will too.

      I’d try hold on until closer to the deadline.

      Good fixture this week for Tammy.

  8. Vev
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Vardy+Martial -> Aguero+Doucoure for -4, yay or nay?

    1. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Nay. With both having plum fixtures, I wouldn’t take a hit to get them out.

      1. Vev
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers, just not liking the look of Leicester at the moment...

        1. Big Al Stankovic
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Agree. Have three myself and will phase them out if I don’t like what I see this match.

  9. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    2 questions

    TAA triple captain?

    Vardy to Aguero?

    I'm ahead in my leagues so I'm tempted to just play safe but that's boring isn't it

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No. Captain maybe.
      No.

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        To the point that tbh thanks

    2. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Yay, and why not.

      1. Stupendous
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Right?

        Life short. It's a game.

        1. Big Al Stankovic
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yup. Taa is not your worst bet. Actually one of the best pointwise away from home. Gonna be either him or Salah for the tc for me.
          Aguero’s on fire atm, and Vardy not. So if it’s for free, it’s gonna be your gains.

    3. korbendallas82
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I Got Aguero myself. Aguero right now, is worth the money.

  10. HarryS
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Which to bring in?

    A) Deeney
    B) Ayew
    C) Maupay

    1. ZimZalabim
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      deeney

      1. HarryS
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Was thinking the same, cheers

    2. Johnny Drama
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Thoughts of Tosun?

      1. HarryS
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Early days...

        1. Johnny Drama
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Of course, that makes him even more of a differential 😉

      2. Big Al Stankovic
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Toosoon

    3. korbendallas82
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I have Deeney, with Ings and Aguero.

    4. Rider on the Storm
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

  11. ZimZalabim
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Do u guys think that any west ham def can/will outscore Sidibe(NEW) or Soy(WHU)

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

      I’d back a starting Sidibe to beat them.

      1. ZimZalabim
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers
        any idea why he was dropped/rested
        and likelyhood he starts next gw ?

        1. St Pauli Walnuts
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Rested and yes I reckon

    2. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      No. But football is the beautiful game. Best of luck for your large testicles.

  12. _Ninja_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Any Everton fans around? With Siggy out whos on pens.. Digne? DCL?

    1. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Probably Digne.
      I’ve gone Digne over DCL only because of attacking benching headache having DCL and Fleck would cause.

      1. _Ninja_
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers

    2. Party time
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Walcott the veteran. Easy pick

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

      What to do? (1 free transfer, 0.1ib)

      Henderson (McGovern)
      Trent Lundstram Söyüncü (Kelly) (Rico)
      Salah Mané KDB Grealish (Hayden)
      Vardy Ings DCL

      Maybe Kelly to Holgate? Or Rico to Williams?

      1. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I would work on the defence indeed

      2. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Save. Gtg

      3. Catastrophe
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Kelly and Williams good fixtures so probably the latter

      4. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Rico to Williams

    4. Daghe Munegu
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Anyone?

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

      1. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes for me

      2. Big Al Stankovic
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes. Looks good for the next three at least.

    5. Rider on the Storm
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Hey, i finally did it :
      Out : Vardy Jimenez Maddison
      In : Aguero DCL Grealish & -4
      Please tell me i was a good choice!

      1. Pep's Money Laundry
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I like it

      2. Catastrophe
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Vardy, Rashford & Cantwell -> Aguero, DCL & Grealish here. So I hope it was!!

      3. korbendallas82
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes. It is a good move.

      4. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks guys / girls

    6. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Apologies for the off FPL tangent. Been years since I played basketball. Is every foul on a 3 point shooter a 3 freethrows foul?

      1. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Yes

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Cheers. God it's a boring TV sport for me. Either a hiding or basket for boring basket to tedium and no fighting! Much better to play.

      2. Mid budget coach
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I guess so coz every three point attempt is nowadays followed by a dive

        1. GreennRed
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Started playing around 1980. Always told, go to the basket, shoot, then make contact, try to draw a foul and get free throws. No 3 pointers then but they've been around a long time. I suppose looking for a foul after three point shot is similar. It's cheating, but clever cheating.

    7. Catastrophe
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Anything worth a hit chaps? 0.2 ITB

      Ryan
      TAA, Holgate, Kelly
      Salah(c), Mane, KDB, Grealish
      Aguero, Ings, DCL

      (Woodman, Traore, Lundstram, Simpson)

      Cheers!

      1. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Ok!

    8. Mr. Mystic
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Salah or Many for triple C and why?

      1. HamezMace
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Salah.
        Nothing separates them really, but Salah has penalties.

      2. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Salah because of current form?

    9. martyhan
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Richarlison to

      A Snodgrass

      B. Martial

      C. Bench and play Williams (if he does get a game that is)

      1. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        B

      2. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        B

    10. alstal
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Wildcard thoughts? Not getting many clean sheets anyway

      Pope
      TAA Dunk Tang
      Salah Mane KDB Fleck
      Vardy Augero Ings

      Bench Button Hayden 3.9 Lund

      0 ITB

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Unbalanced. So much value around that I think you should downgrade one of your 9m+ players and redistribute around team

        1. alstal
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          My team now is

          Pope / Schm
          Lund TAA Gom Kelly Doh
          Fleck KDB Mane Tra Mad
          Vard Green Ings

          6.9 ITB

          Was gonna do Gomez to Dunk, Traore to Salah.

    11. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Which do you prefer as final pool slot (go with salah and taa), A is so dull but can’t really backfire

      A Kelly to Gomez
      B kdb to mane (-4)
      C Vardy to firmino

      1. Whats the Huth
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        C

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Cheers! Was original plan but having doubts now

      2. Rider on the Storm
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Liverpool seem really good in defence, but i 'm not sure about gomez long term...
        Well, i'm not sur about firmuno long term either but i woyld prefer c

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Thanks, will likely wildcard next week

      3. Big Al Stankovic
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        A or C. Probably C, since Matip and Lovren is back. Don’t think they will start, but a bit uncertainty that I wouldn’t want.

    12. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      start Rico or Targett this week?

      1. Jusagoras
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Seems like a coin toss to me. I'm even considering starting Lundy ahead of either...

    13. Whats the Huth
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Maddison to Trossard for free?

      1. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Tough one, could work out this week but is Trossard nailed. Not sure potter knows what best team is

    14. ToooooooOon
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Play one;
      A Canntwell
      B Lundstram
      C dendomker
      D Taylor
      E sell one and bring someone else in for a 4 point hit.

      Thoughts appreciated, thanks

      Would you play Greenwood over Ings on the chance that Ings comes of the bench for 10 mins or something?

      1. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

          7 clean sheets in a row + attacking potential. I'm all for it

        confident wolves wont score ?

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years

          I think Wolves and West Ham both score

        2. goriuanx

          Yeah but even if they did it's not the end of the world. He has assist threat and is on freekicks. TC would mean banking on a CS in one of the two as a minimum though imo

            You don't see much coming from Salah or Mane?

            1. goriuanx
              • 13 Years

              They'll probably score but I don't see the fun in it. I play fpl for different reasons to most

        Pat surely not Gomez.

        Gamble on Firmino

        Best TC pick is anyone’s guess

      With all talk about Ings maby be rested.
      In what order would you put this bench.

      1. Henning
        • 9 Years

        1. Traore 2.Lundstram 3. Stephens

      Trying to get Mane in:
      KDB + Abraham -> Mane + Deeney / DCL
      Or
      KDB + Maddison -> Mane + Traore
      ?

      Current Team:
      Ryan
      TAA Kelly Rico
      Grealish KDB Salah Maddison
      Vardy Jimi Abraham

      Button Cantwell Lundstrum Kiko

        First one, with dcl.

      Do anyone have a clue about which other player could be a good TC option this season? I know the later DGWs are yet to be announced, but.. Are there players like Aguero/Kdb/Vardy/Aubameyang who will get DGWs later on?

      1. GreennRed
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Dunno. Just seems too soon to use such a valuable chip and Santa Claus not gone home after his Christmas party yet!

      2. goriuanx
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        I wouldn't want to TC a City player given the next DGW will most likely be after the title is mathematically over. That only really loves Vardy, assuming Leicester see past Villa first.

        Liverpool TC won't be the only opportunity, but I think it's the safest and potentially the most rewarding too.

        1. Pep Pig
          • 7 Years

          Have to agree mate

        2. JBG
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Okay thanks for the answers. I really don't like using my TC chip this early. But you do make a really good point about City. And Vardy is in pretty bad form lately, so who knows how he will finish the year.

        Yes most likely but got bench boost as well and who knows what’s left to play for by gw37! Could end up captaining an Andy Carroll like I did a few years ago

        1. JBG
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          How did that end?

        Later DGWs are likely to bunch the two games just a few days apart, so potential rotation risk. This DGW has the games a week apart, kind of a rare DGW luxury. Not sure why so many are looking past this week for something better...

          Good point that, I'm mostly unsure because I don't like using chips like this so early. But you and Berbinho do make some really good points.
