Scoutcast Episode 322 – Tackling the Blank Gameweek

Mané I guess

That’s a good question.
As long as you have three Liverpool players you should be happy.

No stand out fixtures.

If u believe in fixtures over form then sure. I personally not getting Vardy till he shows some attacking stats

Looking at Trent myself?

Firmino much more of a differential than Vardy, why not him?

Mega GW38 or games played behind closed doors on the way.

Both Traore and Sais not 100% nailed. Keep Grealish long term and get in Boly/Doherty

Boly for me

Salah has form and good fixture, Vardy has no form and great fixture. I'd go with the prior myself - if United can stick three past Watford, Liverpool are not going to have a problem.

Salah if leading.
Vardy if chasing....and even then it might be too early for a punt.

Save your FH until 31, and see how many players you’ve got involved.

Save WC until the DGWs are known, and plan WC/BB use around them. Likely to be 34/37.

Depends on the fixtures for 31 are, maybe FH then, maybe 34. BB likely 37

Wait until next weeks FA Cup games have been completed, and 6th round draw has been made. The best strategy to negotiated the blanks and DGW's should be a lot clearer then.

BB for bigger dgw, FH for smaller one. Blank Gw just get along as upside is limited especially if Chelsea knockout Liv and you will have 3 bgw players there itself

I think any of those 2 to Taylor is prob the best option. I thought of Joel Ward too but need to see them for 1 more game before i jump back on them as a reliable defensive unit.

You are looking for Italians on here rather than seeking advice from the many official sources?

I work for an Italian company, based in Rimini, just south of the current boarder line of quarantine.

A colleague of mine flew out this morning, to Bologna, with no issue.

Florence and Napoli much further south, but who knows what the next few weeks will bring.

What a spaz.

The guy who works at Bella Italia told me it will be fine (as he coughed into my carbonara)

I'm not touching my Panini card collection till I hear the all-clear.
Just saying.

I am tempted but doing really well playing it safe atm!

Don't like the James part of top move. Dont like the Auba to Vardy part of bottom move (but I can see why others are trying it)

Try getting Bruno for a blank player. I took risk and brought him for kdb but kdb has just one good match BUR where he will be rested with UCL match in 75hrs

traore will play this one

Lets see how much he play in Europa

Play Traore imho.

Yep. I went for Pope to get Doherty in later.

Do you have a WC?

the latter

Good luck.
I’m not optimistic about 28 at all. Hopefully that works in the same way as my extremely optimistic view of 27 was.

Thanks Ed.

Could also get Jimenez/Jota up front and Barnes as the midfielder

Won’t be a problem next year 😉

two a week is nothing unusual, if Arsenal progress in the Europa they will have that for the rest of the season, plus one more game to squeeze in somewhere.

"Who is more foolish? The fool, or the fool who follows him?"

Welp, Bruno will be assisting Martial score, so you may not need a hit to benefit from Bruno

Not much in it.

Lei have great fixtures, and no Europe to worry about.

Doherty I prefer as a player, and he plays 31.

Things to consider.

I agree, or could you look at sarr?

#Playyourowngame

Keep following same strategy, dont overthink!

*Never finished in top 10k* 😉

Monitor EO

Don't do subtle brags - they are a jinx 😉

I might go B.
There is a possibility Sidibe may not even start

In order go the Sarr route, Id want to be fairly convinced that Watford are back on the up. And right now, Im not.

B

Probably avoid FFS for a few days then.

FPL have just done a 'Scout' post on him so expect more!
