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's your floor and ceiling for Salah, Mane, TAA for dgw?

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

      Roughly 9 - 16 for Salah/Mane
      Taa 7 - 20

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

      My prediction, for what it’s worth, is that they’ll all score about the same.

  2. Forgetmeknot

    4 years, 2 months ago

    Hoping to learn from collective DZ wisdom:

    Which 2 to play?

    Maupay (bou)
    DCL (NEW)
    Noble (lei & LIV

    1. sunzip14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      All not possible? DCL, Noble.

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

      Bench Maupay

  3. sunzip14
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Any changes needed to the starting 11 or gtg?

    Ryan
    TAA, Sidibe, Williams
    KDB, Mane, Salah(tc), Martial
    Vardy, Ings, Greenwood

    Button, Lascelles, Lundstram, Hayden

    1. KUNingas
      • 8 Years

      G2G

    2. Holmes

      G2G

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

      Triple United 😮

  4. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Any strong parameter that separate Mane and Salah for captaincy? Or its still 50-50 / gut feeling choice?

    1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Gut feeling.....I think both will score similar

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

      NonSalah owner and Im afraid

    3. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      no one really knows mate, both could haul but one will get more points amd thats where luck factor comes in so just follow your gut

    4. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I always thought Mane tend to getter more points against better defeses whereas Salah is big hauls vs weak opponents - so Mane for me this gw

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

        That doesn’t correspond with their scores this season though, does it? Also, you’re considering Wolves and West Ham string defenses? Do they even gave 10 clean sheets between them?

  5. KUNingas
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Good morning!
    2FTs and 2.4 ITB.

    A) Gomez -> Robertson
    B) Gomez + Soyuncu -> Robertson + Lascelles
    C) Gomez + Martial + Jimenez -> Lascellas + Salah (TC) + Maupay (-4)

    Ryan
    TAA, Gomez, Soyuncu
    Mane (TC), KdB, Maddison, Martial
    Vardy, Jimenez, Ings

    Button, Lundstram, Cantwell, Rico

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

      A

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

        Yeah leaning to this. Any chance Gomez would play both games?

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

          Even if Gomez plays both imo Robbos attacking threat puts the debate to bed.

          1. Esalman
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Robertson costs nearly 2m.

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

            Yeah agree

  6. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Morning everyone. Play one.....

    A, Traore (H) Liverpool
    B, Cantwell (A) Spurs
    C, Lord Lund (H) Citeh
    D, Rico (H) Brighton.

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

      A

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

      A

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

      A

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

    Anyone else leaning towards Salah(TC) over Mane due to better form?

    - Salah: 58 points in last 7gws

    - Mane: 37 points in last 7gws

    I know that Mane gets slightly more big chances but based on total volume of shots and eye test Salah looks super sharp

    Salah seems get into more central areas in penalty box while Mane slightly drifts wider based on Heat maps lately.

    Agree? Thoughts are welcomed.

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

      I would TC Salah if I own him

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

      Agree

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

      Does that include WAT and BOU game for Salah?

    4. Esalman
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I'd (C) Salah over Mane. But not using TC just yet.

    5. Klein
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Salah 29 points in last 5 games.
      Mane 31 points in last 5 games.
      I think both can be equally good. I am going Salah or maybe TAA.

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

      Plus Salah on pens if Milner still out

  8. wildnothing
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Would you save the free transfer or make any move? 1.3 itb. I'm targeting Willian and Maddison.

    McCarthy
    TAA Sidibé Söyüncü
    Salah (TC) KDB Maddison Willian
    Firmino Vardy Maupay

    Henderson Dunk Traoré Lundstram

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

      Save FT. You are wiser next week

  9. TheythinkHITSallover
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Got TC all set to go on Salah, but now considering a differential, City almost certainly in LC final and then there is potentially Vardy. Could a TC on Vardy when most have gone with it this week be game changer or too much of a risk? Villa win and Grealish or plenty of City options despite Pep roulette risk

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

      Quite happy to blow it now rather then have to think about it later personally

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I think with all the benefits of this dgw (spaced out, team in top form, title race still on, no CL), the only better scenario is a dgw for Leicester (with two good fixtures) taking into account the Pep roulette issue.

      It’s simply a case of one in the hand worth more than two in the bush.

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

        Any idea who Leicester might play?

        1. TheythinkHITSallover
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Thats what im thinking Norwich away would be the re arranged fixture then would depend when it was re arranged

        2. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Norwich away & Arsenal/Spurs

          1. TheythinkHITSallover
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Norwich great fixture, Arsenal or Spurs not as bad as it sounds both poor at the back

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

            Hmm not sure thats any better

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

              If none of those teams improve itl be good but too much unknown for me to pass this one up

    3. TheythinkHITSallover
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Other consideration if plan is to use other chip to take take advantage of that DGW you probably are not going to want to treble up on Norwich with a BB, WC or FH

    4. TheythinkHITSallover
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Cheers for the advice guys, not using it probably a bit of a gamble,
      Just have an incline that Liverpool guys are going to let everyone down this week

  10. Phil's Stamps

    4 years, 2 months ago

    Best cheapie Newcastle defender?

    1. KUNingas

      Good time to use it

    2. TheythinkHITSallover
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      As above, seriously considering holding for a potential dgw TC Vardy Party

  12. SpaceCadet

    Best 7.4m forward to fill in the blank?

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Honestly, none imo and I own DCL.
      Better off down to Greenwood and up Dendo with the cash

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Thoughts on Haller for a one gw punt? Could get a lucky assist or goal in the dgw fixtures.

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah, why not? Who you taking out?

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 2 months ago

            Kun and rich > mane and haller. Plan to reverse the transfers after this gw.
            Other option is to take out kdb for mane but I have too much value tied up in kdb.

            1. Joggers Nipple
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 2 months ago

              If it was me, Rich down andget 2 LIV def. Keep Aguero.
              But if you on the double LIV mid idea Haller for a punt but its a transfer waiting to happen

              1. SpaceCadet
                • 10 Years
                4 years, 2 months ago

                Was considering robbo…….but has to be Mane with his high EO. Haller will be just for the dgw then out. Still undecided tho. Cheers mate.

  13. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Setting team transfers up, from gw27 so on which duo to have (1 mid., 1 fwd.)

    Traore grealish tamy jimi

    1. Mings the Merciless
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      I have Traore, and am aiming to bring in Jimi by then too

  14. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Best move? 70 behind in ML & leader has KDB, Mané, Salah, TAA, Vardy

    A) Soy & Maupay -> Robbo & Greenwood
    B) KDB & Maupay -> Mane & Greenwood
    C) Zabaleta & KDB -> Robbo & Mahrez
    D) Soy, KDB & Vardy -> Robbo, Grealish & Aguero (-4)

    Ryan
    TAA, Aurier, Williams
    Salah, KDB, Martial, Moura
    Vardy, Ings, Maupay

    Button, Soyuncu, Zabaleta, Dendoncker
    Bank 0.9m, 2FTs

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. The Man Pastore
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      A, but could you get VVD instead and get a better striker?

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

        Would give me 5.1, so not much better. Ayew I guess comes into the thinking.

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

          Martinelli?

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

            Can afford Robbo & Martinelli - you think Martinelli is a better option than Greenwood? Just worried about his starts with Auba/Laca/Pepe/Saka/Nelson etc all competing for game time

        2. The Man Pastore
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          Not much better indeed.

          I think I would get rid of Ings instead then. Maybe Ings + Soy to DCL + Robbo?

    3. Ayling Buyers Club
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      How about Vardy to Firmino and do something interesting with the other FT, like Moura to Mahrez?

  15. 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. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Just save. Double LIV mid means you have no real room or anything

    2. Offs!de
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Rico to Holgate possible?

  16. Balance
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Interesting that only 59% of the poll is activating TC this week.

    For those not going to TC, could you share your views/reasons? I am going for it personally and want to understand other perspectives.

    Thanks!

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

      They’re waiting to see if Aguero or Vardy will have a double later in the season

      1. Offs!de
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        Vardy has the different case but for Aguero, it is sure that Pep won't play Agu twice within a spare of not less than six days.

  17. Benditlike
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Good move?
    Traore -> Grealish

    1. Mings the Merciless
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Tough one. Grealish has a good fixture coming up against Bournemouth, but Traore’s fixtures improve after gw26. I guess you could always swap back if you really want him

  18. KUNingas
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    A) Gomez -> Robertson
    B) Gomez + Jimenez -> Lascellas + Firmino

    1. Bream Reaper
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      b. Firmino more chance of a goal than Robbo keeping clean sheets

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

        Robbo could also get attacking points?

        1. Bream Reaper
          • 4 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          True. But good chance of conceding against wolves

  19. Almathkourq8
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Do you guys think Salah will start on Thursday??

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Simple answer is yes.

    2. Kip
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Sure. Why wouldn’t he?

      1. Almathkourq8
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        He didn’t get rest in the last game .. I have doubts that he will start on Thursday

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 2 months ago

          He doesn't need a rest. Ran half the field for the goal.

  20. Nightf0x
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    from gw27 & so on which duo to have (1 mid., 1 fwd.) From these

    Traore grealish

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

  21. UnitednationsXI

    Morning dzzz, best option here with 2FTs and 5m itb!

    Ryan
    Taa Aurier Zabaleta -- Lundy Rico
    Grealish Salah Kdb Martial -- Stephens
    Vardy Ings DCL

    A: Martial >> Mane.
    - However, will need to downgrade him by gw27 to upgrade the likes of DCL and Grealish

    B: DCL >> Firmino + 1.4m.
    - Would mean i mean keep Firmino long term. Can also keep martial (BUR, WOL) for their "good" fixtures but unsure on united's prospects

    1. Bream Reaper
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      b

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Rico to Robertson

  22. Bream Reaper
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    GTG?

    Schmikes
    TAA/Soy/Rico
    Salah (TC)/Martial/Ali/Traore
    Vardy/Tammy/Firmino

    Ryan/Lund/Hayden/Kelly

    1. Kip
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Nothing worth a hit

      Personally I’m still in dubio on Rico vs Lundstram

      1. Bream Reaper
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 2 months ago

        yeah same, but my thoughts are city will try to punish after last week, so Lund get -ve points. Rico takes set pieces so more chance of an assist cause against BUR. Logic may be flawed, but that is what I think..

  23. Kip
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 2 months ago

    Playing Lundstram (MCI) over Rico (BHA) looks really weird considering the opposition

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

      If not double up,play Lund.

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

      ManCity def hasn't been that good lately

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

        Okay... but even if Lund scores, he could concede 4

        1. Pukki Party

          Thay have conceded 3 foals once this season i think. Possible but not likely to ship 4 goals imo.

    Who’s the best Rashford replacement?

    I already have Vardy and Abraham

    1. Joggers Nipple
      • 14 Years

      Ings

    2. Bream Reaper

    Would you sell any of following to get Mane?

    A) Aguero
    B) KDB
    C) Vardy
    D) No way

      Have to, no choice. Between A or B for me, still undecided. But with a plan to reverse the transfer soon if needed. Early team news tonight would help make that decision 🙂

        Yeah same. Tempted to sell Aguero, captained him last two but think he will be rotated soon.

          No i am on double Lvp def. Not enough $$ to do vardy to mane with -4 even if i wanted to.

          Leicester not playing well recently and feels like Vardy is regressing based on last 6 games stats.

    Anything worth a hit here? 3.6itb.

    --Hendo
    --TAA--VVD--Dunk
    --Mane--KDB--Madds--Grealish
    --Vardy--Ings--DCL

    --Stekel--Lund--Kelly--Cantwell.

    Thanks guys.

    Anyone bothering with any West Ham players this DGW?

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

      Might get Haller in

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

      No

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

      I’m not but if I was it wouldn’t be a defender. Maybe Noble just cuz he’s so cheap and on pens

    Stick with TAA(c) or switch to Salah(TC)?

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 2 months ago

      Switch

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

    Foster
    TAA Holgate Soyuncu Evans
    Mane(c) KDB Mooy
    Vardy Ings(rested?) Firmino(vc)

    Bench: McCarthy, Richarlison(1GW injury), Sarr(1GW injury), Lundstram

    1FT 0.8M

    If Ings gets rested, I have a 532 formation this GW. What would you do?
