Scoutcast crew discuss resurgent Man United and Leicester’s fixture-turn

875 Comments

There are a handful of issues for the Scoutcast crew to get through tonight.

You can join us on our YouTube channel from 20:00 GMT to 21:00 GMT but you can watch the latest episode back any time after that.

Joe will be joined by Az and Karam to discuss Manchester United’s new-look side, built around the in-form creative midfielder, and penalty-taking, Bruno Fernandes (£8.2m).

Meanwhile, a turn in the fixtures could mean a return to the headlines for Leicester options including Jamie Vardy (£9.7m), James Maddison (£7.4m) and Harvey Barnes (£6.0m).

After that, the tough decisions to make about life past Blank Gameweek 28 will be our talking point of the week.

    Chelsea’s kit is too heavy .... sapping all their energy.

    Just goes to show how getting the ref to have a look at the monitor makes VAR so much better in every way.

      I think that sometimes the end-to-end nature of the PL means our top teams lose a little guile and cuteness. They don’t need to develop patience in their build up.

    Fair play Bayern, absolutely different class compared to us today.

      They have now lost 8 games at home.

      A big worry for their top 4 chances

          Looks like you have a lot in common with your team

          Lacking any class

      They're a great team. The Premier League really only has two capable CL teams right now to be fair, the rest of the teams are in transitional periods.

    Are Chelsea still worth considering for the bournemouth fixture? Bourn been awful but I am now wholly confused about which chelsea asset to target... had Mount in mind

      I’d get Tammy. I think Mount could be rested

    Anymore news on whether MCI will have a DGW in GW29?

    I'm bringing in Traore for GW28 and need to decide if it's DSilva or Fleck that goes

    Cheers!

      From Ben:
      Likely enough that you should hold your FTs until after 5pm on Friday
      If there's no announcement before the GW28 deadline (7pm on Friday) then the chance of a DGW29 will plummet

    Already have Soy from Leicester and McCarthy and Ings from Southampton;

    a) Pereira and Armstrong or
    b) Stephens and Barnes

    B is 1mil cheaper but thinking A is worth the extra money?

    Thinking about the chips is really tricky before the fixtures are announced and working off probabilities that teams go through the cup or not!

    Are people just planning to FH in 31 or hoping that Liverpool don't blank and being able to build a team (e.g. 3x Liv, 2-3x Wol, DCL, Pope, Rico)?
