This week’s ScoutCast is a throwback – a return to the days when Granville moaned about his team of red flags and names like Robin van Persie and Yaya Toure dominated our thinking.

Granville and I slip into such subject matter like it’s a pair of old slippers, whilst assessing the Aguero fall-out, the Dzeko option, Ivanovic versus “Dave” Azpi and how I’ve modelled my Fantasy Football management style on Roy Hodgson.

We roll out the regulars and lament the demise of the ScoutCast team – eliminated in the opening round of our own cup competition. Some things never change.

Swim in nostalgia via this link or roll back the years via the player below…

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

  1. Patty
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Once Jovetic is at full fitness will he be above Dzeko in the pecking order

    1. Root
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      No

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Yes

        1. HellasLEAF
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          But! There will still be rotation worry if they go one striker and there will also be worry over minutes. Although, I would definitely rather own Jovetic than Dzeko all things being equal.

    2. Gobigorgohome
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Jovetic plays better atm

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      This is the worry. Dzeko could be a great shout but
      Sakho
      Costa
      Beneke
      Bony
      Lukaku

      have less rotation worries over them. imo

      1. Shifty
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        comes with the territory. None of them play with the same attack quality.

        Dzeko could get a goal off the bench too mind, he's been there and done that. Not the prettiest to watch, but he gets the job done more often than not.

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          Agree on the quality point. Happy to have Bony and wait a week to see on Dzeko. Easy switch

          1. Shifty
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            Yup, that's a valid tactic too. Have both myself. With the Kun injury and variety of striker options, there will be plenty of bandwagon hopping over the next few weeks.

      2. deathorglory
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Sakho similar risk of being rotated as Dzeko imo (not a lot).

    4. Shifty
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Until Dzeko is at full fitness.

    5. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      depends on pellegrini tactics..i think dzeko is more suited to a lone forward, while jovetic play behind the striker

  2. SirBruno
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    what do you think lads?

    Hart
    Clyne Wisdom Azpi Baines
    Haz(c) Siggy Eriksen Oscar
    Pelle Dzeko

    Jaku/Boyd/Moore/Austin

    or should I play Boyd and bench Wisdom?

    Cheers

    1. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Front 3 are a concern. Costa, Rooney need to be in there imo.

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Or Bony, Lukaku, RVP

      2. SirBruno
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Can't do had to get rid Fabianski and Aguero in the the first place

      my current team with 1ft

      1. mookie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        no need to WC imo, take a hit(Aguero+Chadli out)

    2. coran2123
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Why keep Bertrand on a WC?

  4. white heart pain
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Pants
    Baines Wisdom Duff
    Yaya Hazard Sanchez Siggy
    Costa Rooney Kane

    Myhill Boyd Chambers S.Taylor

    Worth spending 4pts to replace Duff?

    1. white heart pain
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Anyone

    2. enrico.palazzo
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Not unless it's a long term tf. No hits go a long way this week

  5. stilicho
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Sorry this must have been asked and answered a million times but how many gameweeks until ACON players join up with their national squads?

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      mid jan

      1. stilicho
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        So we'll get, what, 5 gameweeks out of them?

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      they'll likely leave after the New Year's Day matches (GW20 being their last week)

      someone noted that Yaya requested last year to stay on to play a FA Cup match after the New Year's match and had request denied

      the players will not be available for the games in GW21

      1. stilicho
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Thanks

      2. thetinkerman
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Means you can load up on Bony and Yaya and fix it for GW21 should you wish

        1. thetinkerman
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          (with the wildcard)

    3. Orion
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      ACON is starting on january 17, so they will leave a couple of days earlier imo...

  6. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Game week 19 is going to be a car crash. 😕

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      doesn't look bad long as you have Benteke Austin and good helping of ManCity players

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Perhaps. Well, I am almost up to two Citeh ... 😀

      2. Billy Gilmore
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Half the Man City players will be rested

        1. Heels_Over_Head
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          yeah... one of those factors in what is now the looming Silva/Nasri/Dzeko/Jovetic decision I may make next week

          but maybe I'll just be simple-minded, not take a hit, and just do Costa to Austin

  7. Proggy
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Been contemplating over who is the best option to replace Aguero...

    Sakho - average fixtures, cheap, fantastic stats
    Jovetic - fantastic fixtures, mid-price, great stats, rotation risk with Dzeko
    Dzeko - fantastic fixtures, mid-price, average stats, rotation risk with Jovetic

    Who would you pick?

    1. Son of Rambo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Dzeko

    2. KeepCalm
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      I went with Tekkers

    3. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      rooney/costa/bony/rvp/austin imo

    4. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Sakho. Jovetic does not have fantastic stats, just OK.

    5. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      I went Sakho. Your call.

    6. tokara
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Sakho,

      Big Sam will maximise Sakho before releasing him for AFCON

    7. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      none of the above

    8. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Sacko. Simples.

    9. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Dzeko

  8. Son of Rambo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Guzan, Given
    Baines, Azpilicueta, Chambers, Yun, Dummett
    Hazard, Sanchez, Downing, Sigurdsson, Boyd
    Aguero, Austin, Costa

    1ft & 0 mill

    Aguero needs to go, but is it then worth a -4 or -8 to sell Chambers and upgrade Boyd?

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      No I think you're team is good enough. Just bench austin

    2. Morse
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      I did pretty much exactly that. Took a -4 hit to do:
      Aguero -> Costa
      Boyd -> Yaya
      Chambers -> Hutton

  9. money face bandwagon

    GTG? Hoping that my team won't get a red even with -8...

    Pantilimon

    Guzan
    Baines JT Wisdom Naylor
    Sanchez (c) yaya (vc) Siggy Downing
    Costa Sakho

    Elliot Hutton Fab Austin

    A. Take another hit and do Fab -> Haz (c)
    B. Play Hutton instead of Naylor (double up AVL)
    C. stay put and roll with it

    ta

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            Thanks man. I've been very lucky.

            Yeah, hopefully we''' improve..i'm sure that's not your team on your link 😉

            1. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
              • 14 Years

      C, in my opinion

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        😆 been very busy. Must be frutrating for him/them.

        cheers for the thoughts.

        1. Heels_Over_Head
          • 12 Years

          busy is good

            11 years, 8 days ago

            🙂

            Rejected Rick's offer, counter-offered GB's offer.

            1. Heels_Over_Head
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 8 days ago

              you're on a roll

    4. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      A. I'd be worried if I had no Hazza this week.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        you surely can listen to the evil inside me 😆

    5. Shifty
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      double up villa.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Yah, thinking hardly bout this. Thanks.

  12. Pringle
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    What would you do?

    A. Take a hit for a premium defender
    B. Play Marney

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      A if it's Baines vs QPR

      1. Pringle
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Already have him

    2. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      A Take a hit for Sacko.

    3. Proggy
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Which premium defender are we talking about?
      And also, which defender are you getting rid of?

      1. Pringle
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Already have Baines so maybe Zabaleta, Azpilicueta or Terry

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      A for Baines JT or Zaba

  13. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Yaya (c) is very tempting

    1. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Hazza more so 😉

      1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Have it on him at the minute, but with Schmeichel out I can see Yaya getting some great points. As long as he hits it on target, it should go in.

        1. Punty
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          Haha, you have great confidence in Leicesters 2nd keeper:D

        2. Shifty
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          sub keepers aren't amateurs.

          1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            Sub keeper for arguably the worst team in the league.

            1. Shifty
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 8 days ago

              have you seen his beard?

              1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
                • 13 Years
                11 years, 8 days ago

                Impressive.

                1. Shifty
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 8 days ago

                  makes grown men cry

        3. Al Bundy
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          Hamer has 8 ppg so far this season!!

          On a more serious note, Schmeichel hasnt been very good either the last weeks, so Yaya's odds were pretty good before.

          1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            Indeed, I just get excited when my players play sub/reserve keepers.

            I would probably captain Sanchez if Arsenal hadn't been so abysmal as of late.

            1. Al Bundy
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 8 days ago

              Especially reserve for a team with 2 pts from the last 11 games I reckon.

              Im probably capping Rooney. Liverpool cannot defend to save their lives. Yaya and Bony are a bit tempting too though

              1. Punty
                • 12 Years
                11 years, 8 days ago

                Liverpool have let in 2 in the last 5 games, 1 in the last 4 in PL.. That's the 4 games after Lucas started playing as DM

                1. Punty
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 8 days ago

                  Oh, and rooney has scores twice against Liverpool since 2010 or 2011, but go ahead;)

                2. Al Bundy
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 8 days ago

                  Not sure what stats you use, but theyre wrong.
                  1-1 v Basel, 0-0 v Sunlun, 1-3 v Leicester, 1-0 v Stoke, 2-2 v Leicester
                  4 goals in last 5, 3 in last 4 in PL. (and before this, 3-1 v Palace!)

                  Also, Sunderland werent even trying to get a goal, and Stoke were just unlucky not to score. Basel outplayed them before their 1-0 goal, and Leicester could easily have had more. Their defending on set pieces with Mignolet's work in the area is also a great worry.

                  1. Punty
                    • 12 Years
                    11 years, 8 days ago

                    I wrote wrong, in the last 3 in the PL, and the last 4 overall, the points is since Lucas started playing as DM obviously, which was the Stoke-game

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        you should tell people to sort the 1st link by goals 😉

        1. Heels_Over_Head
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          and the 2nd one by goals conceded

          deary me...

      2. Billy Gilmore

      4. Billy Gilmore
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Liverpool 9 shots on target from 54 shots 😆

        Can't blame Balotelli for that...

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      I might follow suit.

    Anyone on a wildcard?

    Care to post your team?

    1. yLLacs
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      ive made so many drafts cant decide heres my current draft

      http://gyazo.com/191aacb19d08b13f0445e4f4eb0544e0

      1. super zlatan
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Not bad. If I wildcarded I could get this

        Guzan. 4.0
        Azpi. Clyne. Hutton. Wisdom. Yun
        Sanchez. Haz. Yaya. Downing. Boyd
        Dzeko. Costa. Bony

        Worth pulling the trigger?

        1. yLLacs
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          i see your getting rid of baines im 50/50 on doing it also its just qpr(h) makes me want to keep him one more game

          1. super zlatan
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            I could bring in sakho instead of dzeko and keep baines ?

        2. Abaddon

          • 11 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          If I were to wc now I would sell Clyne i think. Though fixtures ahead, and you could buy back again in the january WC. Also the december rotation is hard to predict, espescially for the big teams.

          Just checked the team you have now... DONT WC. Your 3 transfers and -4 i more than enough to make a good team.

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Krul Foster
      Kolarov Cresswell Naylor Hutton Dummett

      RVP Costa Kane

      1. Respect My Authoritah

        The 3rd choice Newcastle keeper over Krul

  15. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    What to do with this bunch?

    Guzan,
    Baines, Naylor, Clyne
    Sanchez, Hazard, Siggy, Downing
    Aguero, Bony, Berahino

    Subs: Krul, Ward Prowse, Moore, Chambers

    Costa or Rooney for Aguero?
    Should I take a hit to bring in a Man City player? Silva? Nasri?

    1. DV8R
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      1 FT with 1.7M in the bank and can't afford yaya

    2. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      rooney, if you confident he will be among the point when united thrashing liverpool 😉

    3. Joggers Nipple
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Aguero to Costa this week for sure
      next week Berhanio to Austin
      Spare cash? Upgrade Chambers/ Moore

      1. LewanGOALski
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        This is exactly the way I'd follow

  16. Shifty
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    the stage is set for all Kun replacements to get 1 goal and max baps on Saturday and Sunday.

    Enter Trollkaku MNF...hattrick.

    That would be something.

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Evs got him

      1. Shifty
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        he knows what's up...

      2. Billy Gilmore
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        He does love his Lukaka does Evs

        1. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          if lukaku scores well this gw, he deserved it i think..afterall, he sold rvp to costa prior to the southampton game..must be hurt though 😀

          1. Billy Gilmore
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            Ouch, that's nearly as bad a my (and many others) selling Costa prior to Everton

          2. Shifty
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            ouch he did? 😕

    2. Root
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Mirallas won't let that happen.

      Mirallas hat trick.

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      no way Jose. Baines' show that time.

    4. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      another way to look at lukaku

      a) austin+mirallas

      or

      b) boyd+lukaku

      similar in price..i think i would prefer A

      1. Shifty
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        can't tempt me anymore. I've gone down the darkside - Dzeko's alr sitting in my 11. That smirk....

        1. money face bandwagon
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          dzeko is firmly on my radar...only concern is his security of starts in christmas

          was planning to do austin->dzeko but resisted due to the 2 home games austin has in the christmas period which i know he will definitely play..so i got in mirallas to cover austin's away fixtures

    5. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      yun will stop him 😀

      1. Shifty
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        "Y U N(o) stop him!"

  17. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    I have no City nor Hazard. Starting to feel worried 😐

    1. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      hazard (c) 😀

    2. Rats Ass
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Me neither! Was wondering whether to do Hazard for a hit. But I think I'll ride it out and hope he doesn't bag a load.

    3. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      I only have 2 Man City players and I'm starting to worry that's not enough

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Yaya and Costa. But with only those two, it doenn't instill much confidence atm 🙁

  18. money face bandwagon
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    glad to see everyone going with a different strikeforce..which make the game fun

    currently with

    austin rooney costa

    aiming to get

    dzeko benteke austin

  19. Sooda
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Foster - Hutton, Yun, Wisdom - Sterling, Fabregas, Siggy, Downing - Aguero, Costa, Austin

    Krul, Tadic, Bertrand, Bartley

    With Krul, And Aguero injured and Austin and Fab suspended, I amm seriously considering Wild carding and maximising the funds I get from transferring Kun

    What do you guys think?

    Other wise it is 4 pt hit for

    Kun- Dzeko and
    Tadic for Yaya I think

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      good transfers

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      don't wild card now

      1. Sooda
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Thanks buddy sorry for the v late reply. Still thinking abt WC

  20. Jafalad
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Which player that is not in your team are you most worried about this week?

    1. mookie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Hazard&Baines

      1. Root
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Ouch

        1. mookie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          Ouch indeed, think i’ll get one of them for a hit though.

    2. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      the manc guys..have none of them

    3. Root
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Sakho

    4. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Nasri

    5. Cruizer van Nistelrooy
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      yaya, ramsey, lukaku and rooney

    6. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Costa, Yaya and the strikers I don't get

    7. Shifty
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Yaya and Ramsey.

      Ah feck are we in 2013/14??

    8. Al Bundy
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      RvP. Thats mostly as a Liverpool fan though. I also fear a Hazard explosion

    9. Eze Really?
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Sakho, Bony, Baines

    10. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Good to see everyone is worrying about Yaya and Slacko 😛

    11. Zombie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Dzeko, Costa and Lukakaka

    12. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Man City players. Will scout all of them this weekend and bring in 2 of them in next gameweek.

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Um

        Sort this by goals: http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/1151/

        Sort this by goals conceded: http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/6810/

        Might not want to wait entirely

    13. Vardy Gras PBFC
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Dzeko.

    14. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Hazard, Ramsey, Rooney, Dzeko, Benteke

  21. Hakuho FPL
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Why all the love for Rooney? I watched manutd games and he doesnt look that impressive (coming from a utd fan)

    1. Punty
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      The only thing I can think of is that he can score anytime against anyone, but I agree would never get him now, specially not with those fixtures

    2. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      he's still in my team because of injuries and suspension of other players..but here comes 2 home games in the next 3..probably wise to keep for now

    3. Jafalad
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      2 weeks ago he was a must have but you know what it's like on here.

    4. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      At the end of the season, he will average 5 points/game. Steady trickle of points. And also on pens.

      1. Hakuho FPL
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        i thought RVP is on pens?

  22. Azathoth
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    If ever everyone is fit , this will be Arsenal front 6 ?

    Arteta - Ramsey
    Theo - Ozil - Alexis
    Giroud

    1. Eze Really?
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      I wonder about Theo. I think the Ox has far more class.

    2. Caine & Co.
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      welbeck

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Artetas past it Wilshere beside Ramsey. I know it won't happen but I'd love to see Walcott as the striker.

      Wilshere - Ramsey
      Caz - Ozil - Alexis
      Walcott

  23. tokara
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Anyone tempted by Nasri? Apparently last two GWs, his stats is same like yaya, in terms of shots taken

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      o/

    2. Caine & Co.
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      no. he's a count

      1. Punty
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        Thought he was a duke?

        1. Caine & Co.
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          no no. a c*unt

          1. Al Bundy
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            A chunt? Thats racist!

            1. Caine & Co.
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 8 days ago

              yep, he's also a racist!

    3. Punty
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Could be good pick/value.. depends if he will start playing 90 minutes every game now like Yaya or if he keeps playing 60-70

    4. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Why Nasri when you can Silva, I always say

  24. favel nedved
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Hello lads! Will be helpful if you could share your thoughts

    1) Is Azpi still nailed on and the best value for money option from
    Chlesea?

    2) Will zaba be rotated with sagna or will he start all PL games?

    1. Eze Really?
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Sagna and Luis will get game time.

    2. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      Sagna will get the easy games at home. This is the irritating thinking about the idea of owning Zaba

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        thinking = thing

  25. Heels_Over_Head

  26. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 8 days ago

    Morning, looking for some last min advice

    Guzan
    Wisdom, Azpi, Clyne
    Hazard (C), Shanchez, Yaya, Siggy, Boyd
    Bony, Jovetic

    Gilks, Dummett, Chambers, Austin

    A lot in the bank, frees used. Anything worth a hit? e.g. Chambers to Baines/Zaba and play them over Wisdom?

    Thanks

    1. Eze Really?
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 days ago

      I want to do the same. Zaba, but I will wait.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 days ago

        tossing up between A or B actually.

        1. mojoindojo
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 8 days ago

          Have all except B.

            • 13 Years
            11 years, 8 days ago

            B is seriously tempting. Well rested, on set pieces. Ah, this is tricky.
