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.

    Mane or Salah or TAA for TC?

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

      I just cant bring myself to TC TAA

      1. Andrew Garfield
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I just think Klop' going to put Mane for one game and Salah for another game but TAA both game.

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

          if thats what you think then surely go for TAA

          1. Andrew Garfield
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Under consideration until the deadline..

      2. PapaWengzz
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Same.

    2. Jolly Good
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I think all 3 will play both games and still considering TAA

      1. Andrew Garfield

        Good luck the red !!!

    Bottomed. Struggling to decide this gws transfers. Need to get in Mane. Best option out of these?

    a. kun rich > mane dcl
    b. kdb rich > mane trossard. Can reverse mane > kdb after this gw.
    c. Any other suggestions?

    1. drughi

      B sounds like a decent plan if not to much value tighed up in kdb

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I do unfortunately. Bought him for 10m.

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

          tough decision to make but with a double and manes ownership he is scary not to have. Buying back KDB for 10.7 though i dont know

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Plus kdb had a goal and assist in the reverse fixture at Etihad. Really confused about this one.

      What has made you TC Mane instead of Salah?

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

        keep switching between the 2 but just a hunch atm

    2. Kitsune

      C sounds pretty sensible

    Nice point by Pranil in the end of the Scoutcast. Wolves haven't failed to score in all home games this season.

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

      yeah I could see a tight game like 1-1 or 1-2

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

      It will be a really good game. Wolves are a really good team and indeed I dont see liverpool keeping a clean sheet

  5. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Any tc polls upcoming? Interested to see what percentage is using the chip this week. Really 50-50 for me and could be the one that defines the season. I would like to hold and wait for other opportunities but Pool dgw with very high potential of all the main assets to play both games - that is quite rare gift for a dgw.

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

      Yes, 59.41% so far

  6. The Final Boss
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Saints lost their last game so will raph takes a risk by resting Ings?

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

      10 days rest after this one, depends on ings fitness

      1. Differential C (Mark)
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Nope, got a cup game on the weekend.

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

          rest in cup and play in league

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I mean, I personally want Ings for the cup game on Saturday, so I;d rest him. Think we can do a job starting Adams and Obafemi.

    3. Kitsune
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Wondering the same. Does Ings need a rest? Would prefer to start him over maupay if poss

  7. Differential C (Mark)
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Best Maupay replacement next GW?

    A) Tosun
    B)McBurnie
    C) DCL
    D) Long
    E) Keep Maupay.

      Easily C. No brainer

      If not C then E for ne

    Use or save TC?

    1. Differential C (Mark)
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I'm using, for sure.

    2. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Using it. On salah

  9. Ini

    Do Liverpool have the possibility another dgw this year?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yes, depends if they qualify for next FA Cup rounds or not.

    2. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yes but the title may be won by then or the winning run may be over

    3. Ini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Thanks both!

    4. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I was going to hold since I generally like holding strategies in this game but this dgw just seems right.

      Pool wants to nail title, can rest main assets in FA Cup on weekend, 3 PL games in 10 days is doable since they have the winter break after Soton game, the games are medium/easy for Pool and they seem to have even better fire and form.

      In the future DGWs City is always a question mark and especially if PL is done. Then it leaves you maybe Vardy.

  10. PapaWengzz

    Anything you would do here?

    TAA Chilwell Williams
    Salah Mane KDB Martial

    1FT, 0.1 ITB

    Save the FT? Bench order correct?

    Thanks

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Good enough to save. Maybe Rico as 2nd sub

      1. PapaWengzz
        • 4 Years

        Thanks! 🙂

      2. PapaWengzz
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Would you have Rico ahead of Cantwell as well?

    2. Ini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      All good. Save FT

    TC...

    A. Salah or
    B. Mane

    1. FPL Alaska
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Currently on Salah, but going back and forth

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

      it is a tough decision, going back and forth but on mane

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

      TAA if you have him

    4. BobbyDoesNotLook
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Toughest coin flip this year. I am on Salah

  12. FPL Alaska
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Start one:

    A) Kelly
    B) Rico

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      B

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

      B

    3. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Kelly most likely benched for this game as Joel Ward is back fit, and Cahill + Tomkins is the 1st choice cb pairing

      1. FPL Alaska
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Ahhh good to know, thx

  13. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Gtg? Really unsure about bench order. Don’t think I am getting much out of Kelly or Targett so probably doesn’t matter.
    But Greenwood and Ings might not start.

    McCarthy

    TAA Kelly Söyüncü

    Salah Mane(TC) KDB Son Traore

    Vardy Ings Greenwood

    McGovern Traore Lunstram Targett

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

      Sorry Traore is on the bench and not playing too 🙂

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

      If you play Ings order looks right. I’m currently benching (for Greenwood) due to likelihood of 1 pointer.

      1. PapaWengzz
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Doesnt Greenwood pose the same risk?

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

    Hi all,
    Would you take Sarr out for a hit or play Cantwell Vs tot?

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

      cant see cantwell scoring anything other then a 2 pointer so maybe worth a hit

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

        I also have a defenders headache.

        TAA Kelly Williams Tomori Lund

        There's a chance I might have to play a Lund with Kelly/Tomori and Kelly not playing.

        Maybe better to make a transfer there?

        1. Karhumies
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Yes. Holgate, WAT, BHA, SOU defense are cost effective.

    2. Karhumies
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      433 play a defender

  15. Bream Reaper
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    start 1
    Rico
    Lund
    Kelly

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

      Kelly/Rico/Lund for me

      1. PapaWengzz
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Kelly most likely benched.

  16. Henning
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Is this the right bench order?

    1. Stephens 2. Lundstram 3. Traore

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

      Traore ahead of Lund for me.

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

      Traore can score or assist against any team. why bench him?

  17. Ynwalfc
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Pope
    Aurier,TAA(C),gomez
    KDB,Mahrez,Mane(VC),Grealish
    Aguero,Ings,DCL

    Subs Traore,Lundstram,Kelly

    GTG? Anyone thinking TAA captain? Thanks guys

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

      That’s different but not many bad fpl assets in there tbf
      Is the TAA C a TC?

    2. JT11fc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Gtg. Stil stuck between Taa Mane and Salah. Liverpool have been lucky with a few CS's which puts me off Taa a tad but they were against harder teams

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

      Yes TC, I’m thinking he should play both games and they should at least one clean sheet which is a good start

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

      I think he’s in the best form of the three plus with corners and free kicks

  18. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Last season’s results:

    Wolves 0 - 2 Liverpool (Salah G, Fabinho A, VVD G, Salah A)
    West Ham 1 - Liverpool (Mane G, Milner A)

    TAA missed both games through injury - Salah’s VVD Assist was from a corner, and Milner’s Assist for Mané was from RB

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      *West Ham 1 - 1 Liverpool

    2. JT11fc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Not sure ill ever be set on who to cap. Was set on Trent but is lets say, 1 CS and one assist enough?

      1. PapaWengzz
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Depends how many points Salah/Mane get as they have higher % TC'ing them

    3. lilmessipran
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      What's the conclusion that we can draw from this, if any?

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Conclusions can be quite individual and subjective - different people will often draw different conclusions from the same data

        I can't make your conclusion for you unfortunately 🙂

        But it's an interesting little factoid to share (interesting to me at least!)

  19. davies
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    https://twitter.com/FFScout/status/1210929623556599809

    Play Greenwood instead?

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

      Fair enough. Don’t solve my problems as I am starting Ings and Greenwood right now 🙂

    2. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Could even means He starts and gets subbed around 65mins

  20. OptimusBlack
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Play Lundstram over Kelly ?

    1. JT11fc
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Play Lundy, ima little worried Kelly will get rotated

    2. fish&chips
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I'm playing Kelly. Both could be rotated.

  21. JT11fc
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    I have to downgrade a defender to bring in Salah, would anyone bother going for Cresswell? 4.8 to spend on a defender

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

      worth a punt.

      Week 1-20 = 5 chances created
      Week 21-23 = 7 chances created

      1. JT11fc
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Ye wow big difference. Might have a pop and hopely doesnt get smashed by pool

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

      A lot of people asking about Cresswell I guess because of the double. His fixtures are awful, not just this week but pretty much through GW 33.So I don’t get it

      1. JT11fc
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Its him or Cahill as i have most other cheapies

  22. BucketHead
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Hi all,
    I have 2 options but can't decide...

    Kelly out cresswell in
    Cantwell out snoddy in??

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

      Snodgrass is probably one of the only west ham options I’d consider.

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

        Cresswell could easily wind up with fewer points from the next three matches than Kelly gets this week.

        1. BucketHead
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Thanks for replying

  23. Lignja
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Anything worth hit? If ings and Kelly miss i think i have bad bench...

    Pope
    Taa, Soyuncu, Kelly
    Salah(tc), Mane, Kdb, Traore
    Abraham, Vardy, Ings

    Martin, Rico, Lundstram, Dendoker

    No ft 0.2m itb

    1. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Just start Rico over Kelly. Ings will either start or come off the bench imo

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

        So funny. A few pages back there were about five people saying the opposite.

        1. PapaWengzz
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          I'm not sure about their reasoning, but Joel Ward is back fit so I cant see how Kelly starts

  24. fish&chips
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Have there been any updates on whether Chilwell is likely to start? Worst case scenario for me, Kelly, Lund and Chilwell could all be dropped to leave me without a playing defender.

    1. PapaWengzz
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Rogers said he is in contention to start on Wednesday, so dont see a reason why he wouldn't

    2. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Very bad luck if all 3 will be rested/dropped

    Ings to Haller for a hit?

    Likely 3 points over next 2 versus 6 and a possible return.

    Currently benching Ings for Greenwood but suspect both will cameo

    A Haller (-4)
    B Greenwood
    C Ings

      Well I think your numbers make the case for no. 6 points for Haller minus 3 points for Ings equals less than 4. Yeah, Haller could score, but so could Ings.

        Ings unlikely to haul imo

        Doubt he starts and even if he does you only need the fingers of one hand (no thumb) to count the times Palace have conceded 2 at home to non top 6 in last 2 seasons. (One was Southampton mind:-) h

          You dont need haul. A goal and he will be on 9 points. Cant see haller doing anything really.

            He got 5 got his last goal and that was 90 minutes!

          How many fingers does it take to count the number of goals Haller has scored against teams in the top 4?

            Unlikely to go Haller - Greenwood still favourite. But 180 near guaranteed minutes still tempts.

            Pondering. Not seeing a huge downside though to avoiding Ings this week anyway

              I think, if you could do it without a hit, Haller could be a decent risky punt, but you’re not wrong about Ings this week either. I’m starting him but I’m definitely worried about it

      Dont back ings to score against his former club and end their unbeaten run?

      I am surprised you see return from haller vs lei and liv and not from ings vs cry.

      Attack, maybe...

      Question on everyone lips i think. If it doesnt effect your team too much then attacks more exciting

      Defense in your team. You’ve got a few land mines in your back 5.
