The ScoutCast – Episode 137 – Precious

Every little point counts. With the mini-league gap between myself and co-host Granville widening by the week, my Mancunian friend can ill-afford to throw points aside in his bid to follow up last season’s victorious campaign.

In and around the usual ScoutCast regulars, Granville recalls the dilemma that saw him get away with benching Cesc Fabregas to the tune of just a single point. Will that prove costly?

We then join forces to run the rule over the accelerating Di Maria bandwagon, assess Rooney’s re-positioning and decide whether those steering away from Ramsey Street need to re-programme their sat navs.

Treasure this nonsense via this link or cling to these worldly goods via the handy player below…

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

    this might be a much discussed topic, but for this week in particular, which is better

    A. Foster, Wisdom double up
    B. Split the risk with Foster, Duff

    Other keeper is Krul and defenders are Ivan, Clyne, Chester. I'm keeping a back three so will go for Ivan, Clyne and one of the above

    I just realised that I owned Naismith for 3 GW's, played him twice, and earned a massive ONE point from him.

    At least I gained 0.3, but what a waste he's been recently.

    My style of fantasy play has changed this year.

    In seasons past the wildcard was inevitably smoked by now and I was always fond of a hit.

    So far wildcard intact and no hits taken and I have to say it feels quite refreshing play the patient long game. A lot of this too could be down to the lack of accurate price information forcing early value based changed.

      Same here to be honest. In my 5 years of playing I have used my WC in the first International Break 4 times and the other year was in the second Int Break.

      So far I still have it and made only 4 transfers including this week.

      I will probably end up wildcarding soon!

      I wouldn't do it. Arsenal fixtures aren't great and Welbeck is close to fitness. Why not Gerrard or Silva instead.

    Not captaining Costa is not that risky really. Chelsea won't thrash Villa and he will be subbed off if they look like winning. So worst case scenario is he gets 13pts, so you lose 13pts and gain whatever your captain scores.

          If you pick the wrong one, everyone could breeze past you.

          it would be an idiotic move if you didn't have costa. But given you have him anyway, you'll still going to get his points and you're captaining a player far fewer people have. The gamble isn't whether costa goes bigs, it's whether your captain does, which is the same every week basically.

          Look at it this way, my main rivals in my mini league have costa/rooney/naysmith up front. I have costa/rooney/welbeck. What i'm really betting, is will wellbeck outscore naysmith, and I'm prepared to bet that to the tune of my captain. Let's say that costa, rooney and welbeck all score 10 points and naysmith scores 5.

          That means they would have scored 20 (costa) plus 10 (rooney) plus 5 (naysmith)
          I on the other hand would score 10 (costa) plus 10 (rooney) plus 20 (welbeck)

          So 5 points more overall.

          It's crude maths, and only really works when looking at the strikers rather than whole squad, but it might make you feel a bit better...

            Yes, that seems to be the pull, in that its a bold move that could really pay off, plus I still will bring in the points from costa and ADM. Just spoiled for choice with Pelle aswell, even Ulloa looks like an option at Palace! Come on 4-4!!

    Consecutive league games in the past 2 seasons. Evans (7), Jones (11) and Smalling (12). You just can't build a defence around injury prone players. With Blackett also suspended, it's anyone guess who plays CB.

    Just re. the discussion about playing differently this year above

    In seasons gone by I've played the patient game. Never took hits, used my WC at the end of the season for a DGW, the \waiting-game' basically. This season I've played very aggressively. One hit and one double hit so far, gambled on captaincy most weeks, jumped on a lot of the major bandwagons.. and it's working really well.

    Are you playing differently at all this year?
