The ScoutCast – Episode Ninety Four – Resumption

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.

    Think I've settled on this WC team with 2.2m in the bank to do Ba > Suarez, or Lambert > Podolski.

    Szczesny Begovic
    Harte Baines Demel Luiz Davies
    Mata Bale Michu Fellaini Walcott
    Ba Lambert Tevez

    Could play Bego every game and do Szczesny > Federici and Harte > Gibbs, but it would cost me 0.9m. Arsenal and Stoke's fixtures rotate amazingly well.

        Considered it, and still have a good squad even at the 14m asking price, but I like to play the odds and vary my captain week to week and with Van Persie, you should give him the armband every week. So on balance, I'm going to go without!

        Just before SOT(H)? 😉

        On paper, the next 2 games (LIV, tot) should be ok RVP-less, but like we all know, he scores when he wants.... Am hoping Rooney is available for GW24 to have an altenative at a reasonable price.

      Just what you feel. Most people will say Walcott, as City rarely loses goals from players like this. I'd also think of Puncheon. Puncheon just isn't a great player... Fellaini looked rusty in the last match, but maybe he'll come back up.

        I get ya, I wouldn't feel right about putting a midfielder who's playing as a centre forward on the bench, but it's city, i'd say it'd be a low scoring draw in the end.

        I dont wanna start Puncheon over my heavy hitters, but double gameweek, DOUBLE GAMWEEK!!!!!!!!!!

        Yeah I agree with your Fellani point AND Swansea are starting to seem like a team that can produce decent defensive returns so..........yeah......conundrum......

        Yes, I don't really want to sell Suarez, so I guess Mata is the man.

        Yaya to Fellaini sounds good (I did Yaya to Walcott last GW).
        Santi to Mata also sounds good, with the possible swap back to Santi for Arsenal's DGW.

    Baines Luiz Davies Demel 4.2?(Might gamble on Naughton)
    Fellaini Michu Walcott Bale Mata

      It will more then likely effect the other full back side. He needs cover for O'Brein who is a doubt and McCartney has not been really himself since wings.

        Thanks Ginks, didn't expect that answer, tbh.

        I like to vary my captain choice, so I think I'll consign myself to not having him and hope my captain picks pay off. (Boy, could I do with another Walcott(C) hat-trick and 2 assists!)

          There is no point having RVP if your not relying on him for captaincy. Poor value, you have to know yourself when choosing. I'm probably getting rid as I find it boring captaining him.

            Wait...
            Had RVP and Suarez last week. Captained Suarez. There was "no point" in having those other 16 points?

              value wise, for 14m there are better options.

              Aguero and Fellaini instead of RVP and Puncheon would have got you more points.

                Except I didn't pay 14 for RVP and I didn't pay 4.9 for Puncheon, and except that Aguero is now injured, AGAIN. And, and, and,

                No, I get what you are saying, but I'm also saying that sometimes you have to pay for production and look for your "value" in other locations.

            Like that move... makes the game more fun, despite living in fear of what RVP will do! His consistency has been unbelievable... late goal against Citeh, points from the bench - teams without RVP have simply had no chance.

      Had Bacari most of the season and I'm getting rid on my WC. Watched him live at a couple of games and he doesn't seem the player he was. He isn't bombing forward as much as Gibbs and his body language is off.

      Googled him the other day, and there's rumours he may be on his way out of Arsenal in the Summer. Don't know if off field stuff is affecting his performances.
