Scoutcast crew debate whether to Wildcard after Double Gameweek 24

Fresh from, what was for many, a disastrous outcome of the Triple Captain, the Scoutcast are moving onto the next chip: the second Wildcard.

The Fantasy Premier League community has been debating the best time to press the overhaul button and we’ll bring you our thoughts tonight.

Join Joe, Az and Lee for the latest episode of the Scoutcast at 20:00 GMT on our YouTube channel.

The three pundits will give their views on the Wildcard as well as what to do with the injured Sadio Mané (£12.4m).

The Liverpool man, heavily backed for the Triple Captaincy in Double Gameweek 24, has already been ruled out of the game against West Ham and is a major doubt for Gameweek 25 too.

Is now the time to sell or hold Mané? Joe, Az and Lee will discuss that in some depth.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa and Leicester will be going head-to-head in their EFL Cup semi-final second leg so we will do our best to bring you updates from that game.

    Keep Foster or switch to McCarthy as back up for Henderson?

    1. Yoshimiwinz

      Switch to McCarthy, and set/forget Hendo ROS

          Better yet, just snag Button & bank the cash for another transfer. Henderson is a rock.

    What would you do here? Can’t move Mane on to Auba/Kun without a hit, is it worth it with city/arsenal blanking soon and Mane only out for 1 week?

    Ryan
    TAA - Lunds - Cathcart
    Salah - Kdb - Martial - Mane*
    Vardy - Haller - DCL

    Subs: Button - Soy - Taylor - Romeu

    Lucas Moura is a no go on a wc right?

    1. Pukki Party
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Yes

  11. CloudSky
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Who are people with Salah replacing Mane with?

    1. Pukki Party
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Thinking Son

    2. Celt Abroad
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Holding.

      1. Epic Fail
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        He's a defender.

    3. Zilla
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      How long is Mane out for?

      1. CloudSky
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        West Ham, almost surely Soton then ready for the one after that, as per Klopp.

      2. potatoace
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Planned return v Nor.

    4. FPL Pillars
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Not sureeee aaah

    5. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Undecided. Son, Traore or just bench. Would not like to be without him if fit for Norwich in GW26.

      1. CloudSky
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Think Im going with 2x defenders for next few weeks.

        1. Pompel
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          My original plan was to hold Salah+Manõé until GW26 and switch to two defenders, but really at loss what to do now.

    6. potatoace
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Might as well keep. Its 1 gw.

      1. CloudSky
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Dont think I want 2x 12.5 mil players. No value in that as can C only one.

        1. potatoace
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 9 months ago

          Sod that. I'm going kun ,salah, mane.

    7. Jullepuu
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Mahrez could be good

    8. DAVESAVES
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Martial

      1. Volley127
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Not a popular choice, but I think the same

  12. andres
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Already have Salah, KDB, Traore... Looking for a Mane replacement, who would you recommend?

    1. CloudSky
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Grealish.

    2. DAVESAVES
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Martial

  13. FPL Pillars
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Grealish close to 2-0

  14. wulfrunian
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Bet pick up to 9.8 to replace Maddison?
    a)Zaha
    b)Trossard
    c)Pepe
    d)someone else

  15. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Party on Jamie.

  16. Brosstan
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Vardy coming on. Sellers in absolute tears

    1. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Until he tears a new muscle..

  17. FPL Pillars
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Vardy to come on soon

  18. TRIPOS TOPPER
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    28 turning into quite a blank of Villa get through

    City - KDB
    Villa - Jack
    Shef U - Lund and Hendo

    Only just got Hendo and can’t lose the others or I won’t be able to buy back

    1. Flynny
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      I have 3 Sheffield, auba grealish and kdb currently on my wildcard.....

      Doable ...but only just

  19. DAVESAVES
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Mané > Martial FT?

    With Bruno incoming this could be really interesting

    1. Niho992
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      Son, Mahrez, Salah. Better options.

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        All more expensive.

      2. DAVESAVES
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 9 months ago

        Got Salah, Mahrez too much rotation risk and 90% blank in gw28. Son, meh.. no Eriksen or Kane. Too expensive a think. Holding for tomorrow before any decisions .

  20. Niho992
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    City is going to have easy draw in final too. Lol.

    1. Syd.
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      They haven’t got there yet

  21. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    A. Robertson, Hayden
    B. VVD, Fleck

    Fleck and Hayden would be 5th midfielders because I have Salah, KDB, Grealiah, Traore, Auba, Vardy and Ings

    1. Syd.
      • 15 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      B

    2. DAVESAVES
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 9 months ago

      B

  22. DAVESAVES
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 9 months ago

    Got Salah, Mahrez too much rotation risk and 90% blank in gw28. Son, meh.. no Eriksen or Kane. Too expensive a think. Holding for tomorrow before any decisions
