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.

      Now playing TC on Mane. After reading we are going to have 2 DGW's only (most probably*) so FH & BB in those GW's makes more sense to me

      I kept waiting last season for a better double game week, and it never arrived. I think this week is the best option.

      I have thought about it, but I think I am going to wait until after the double game week and decide whether to just get Jimenez back in or do some work to swap out Salah for Aguero.

      I have the same three, and my debate is between Mane and Salah. Funny how we all look at things differently. I actually think TAA is the safest option to get at least 21 points or so. For a really big haul, I would think Mane or Salah or better picks. So, a long way of saying 2.

    Vardy/Tammy/Firmino

    Ryan, Lund, Rico, Hayden

    I'm thinking of rolling FT, then downgrading Schmikes>4.0 and Ali>Maddison next week, then following week upgrading Rico or Tammy.

    Or should I upgrade Ali next week and downgrade Tammy to DCL or other?

    Or something totally different?

    Thoughts?

          Yeah, he'd be good. However if majority of people on Salah or Mane, is rolling the dice big time. Could make or break the season, just depends if you are a gambling man..

    If my auntie had a you know what she wouldn't be my auntie and that but....

    If week 19 and 20 were a double for TAA, Leic and Wolves, a TC would have been 96 points

    My goodness. Tempted again. This stinks.

    Isn't this supposed to be fun?

      Downgrade Rich, upgrade Rico/Dunk/Soy and go double defense with Robbo

        Cheers. That seems to be the sensible option. But Mane's EO is too high to be ignored.

    Salah (C), KDB, Mane, Grealish
    DCL, Aguero, Ings

    Foster, Traore, Williams, Lundstram
    Bank 0.9m, 0FTs

    This is how I'm planning to line up but am I making a mistake either a) sitting Foster, and b) playing Soyuncu or Holgate over Williams?

    Please give feedback on a and b
