Back for 2013, fully refreshed, slightly rusty and balancing the same chips on our shoulders, Granville are I make a return to the podcast studio.

The New Year presents my beleaguered co-host with a 51-point gap to bridge as I spent Christmas “ho-ho-ing” about three midfield hat-tricks, leaving Granville to roll out one mighty miffed in this week’s episode.

Elsewhere, we pick at the double Gameweek buffet, eagerly scoffing on the Chelsea canapés whilst wondering if Rafa has hidden something nasty in the vol-a-vents. We rinse that down with the latest transfers in and out in “all aboard”, preview all the weekend fixtures and carry out the latest emergency surgery on the ailing ScoutCast team.

Normal service is resumed via this link or you can pour this straight into your ears via the player below…

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Foster (Bunn)
    Nastasic / Cueller / Bassong (O’Brien / Cameron)
    Bale / Cazorla / Walcott / Puncheon (Nolan)
    RVP / Ba / Berbatov

    0.8m in bank

    I have already used my FT to bring in Ba. I am willing to take one -4 hit. Should I do…

    A) Nastasic -> Azpilicueta this week then Azpilicueta -> Gibbs next week
    or
    B) Cazorla -> Mata this week and Nastasic -> Gibbs next week.

    Option B is better for Chelsea DGW but would leave me with one less DGWer over the two weeks (had planned to keep hold of Cazorla for that reason).

    Help would be appreciated!

          Doos, from last page

          On my WC at the moment, thinking of doing O’Brien to Demel. Not too sure what the situation is with O’Brien’s injury and Demel’s gametime. Do you think I should thank O’Brien for the 17 points in 2 games and .1 profit and make the transfer?

    I currently see only 2 major flaws in my wc draft

    1) No Begovic - missed the boat on that and Migs is not a bad alternative

    2) No Mata - you can't have everyone.

    Beyond that I like it

        Yup, we're always short of transfers though and it seems better to pick exactly who you want to stick with now on the wc - if it becomes impossible to play the power 5 you'll have a restricted choice of players based on the pricings of your two players. Quite often in the past I've found myself getting players I don't really want because they make the prices work.
