We return from the international break to find Granville totally smitten by Ravel Morrison. While that particular bro-mance takes me by surprise, the shock of my co-host agreeing with me twice on one ScoutCast is perhaps even more jarring.

I guess Granville can afford to be generous. With a 41-point gap between us, the Mancunian may still be laid up by an untimely knee-op but he’s sitting comfortably when it comes to our Fantasy rivalry.

In between sonnets dedicated West Ham’s troubled talent and jibes aimed at my struggling season, Granville joins me in rinsing through the current bandwagons, previewing the weekend and discussing topics such as Suarez’s lost bonus points. He also helps with the mispronunciation of Adnan Januzaj’s name on 72 occasions. We’re now praying he slips back into the reserves.

Witness Granville’s fatal attraction via this link or steam the suspect soppiness via the handy player below.

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

    With so many good captaincy options and good fixtures for the big teams, surely we're in for a god-awful GW, no?

    First Sub - Ben Arfa v R.Morrison

    I have Ozil so need to prep in case he doesn't feature. Ben Arfa currently on my bench, Morisson would require a free transfer.

    repost since i got no replies on last page

    During the next 3 weeks and not just this week
    A) Burner -Any 4.5 defender other than Murner Clyne- Oscar
    B) Chico- GJ- 6.7 midfielder
    C) Kompany - GJ - Amalfitano

    I repeat, these transfers would NOT be at the same time, but rather 1 gameweek after another when each is declared fit.

      Burner, Vlaar and Oscar could work out well over the next few weeks

      That said, I think Chico & GJ will rack up the defensive points too... just not £6.7m mids worth looking at currently

    After a few terrible GWs, my team is looking decent for this weekend (all 7 attacking players at home). It does give me a captaincy headache however:

    A) Lukaku
    B) Rooney
    C) Giroud

    Also, is HBA out for a hit worth it? Do people think he will start? With Michu, Ozil and Barkley already, I'm struggling to see who I'd get in for him.

            no, kicking off at me for liking an advert is pathetic.

            If you are so anti-advertising, you'd stop watching the premier league.

            You have a right to say whatever you like, but on a forum you will be judged mostly by those words.

    Wenger: "I was very happy to see England qualify for the World Cup and I think they have a basis for a very good team. But let's be cautious."

    A polite way to say he was surprised to see England actually qualify, but they are still shit.

    Such a tough decision to make..

    A) Giroud Suarez Lukaku
    B) Rooney Sturridge Lukaku

    For A, I'm thinking of doing Moses > Oscar
    In case of B, thinking of doing Moses > Ramsey (although I have Ozil) as well.

    Which would you prefer?
