The ScoutCast – Episode 168 – Casual

What makes a “casual” ScoutCast host? Perhaps one who takes to his bed even after a table topping 60-point return?

Despite bringing in his biggest haul of the season, leaving both Jonty and myself in his wake, Granville’s man-flu gets the better of him. Not to worry, Luke, aka “D1sable”, drops in to fill his evening slippers, helping steading the ScoutCast ship as we prepare to cross the choppy waters of another community fueled episode.

Luke and I look on enviously while Jonty gets dewy eyed about Dimiti Payet’s Monday night returns, before we switch attention to the fortunes of the Fantasy Football Scout crowd, scanning their Gameweek tallies in another bout of “Rough with the Smooth”, which this week includes a precautionary tail of a Fantasy Football rage injury.

We round off, as always, with another bout of community questions, assessing the lure of the five-man midfield, strikers and their desperate quest for bonus points, the great “casual” debate, whilst entertaining the idea of making Kolarov our captain. The season could hardly be more bizarre.

    Ok, after musing for the last few days I'm doing Shaw -> Dawson and holding Pedro. This may change post Mourinho's press conference but I like the player and I think people are jettisoning him too quickly ahead of great fixtures.

      good move

      most people seem to be going dawson rather than the cheaper evans - whats the reasoning?

      1. Nerazzuro
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        I went for Evans. Most ppl believe Evans is more likely to get injured.

        1. Tiamani Warrior

          9 years, 1 month ago

          im also going evans but mainly because it leaves me .5 ITB to upgrade another 4.5 to 5 at some point (probably get dawson then!)

    Shaqiri or Ayew for the next 5 weeks?

    1. Mind över Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ayew

    2. Demí
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ayew

      1. Sepp Blattered
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Demi can i gather your thoughts as to why?

        1. Demí
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          I just think Ayew is a much more rounded player, and superior goalscorer. Swansea as an attacking outfit are better than Stoke too.

          1. Demí
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Turns up against the big sides too. Seen little of Stoke to suggest they're all that in attack. Still a way to go with their new signings fitting in

          2. Sepp Blattered
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Thanks thats really helped. It helps also in my mini leagues no one has Ayew.

            I'm thinking of doing Pedro to Ayew this week and drafting in Costa to get Chelsea attacking coverage.

    3. Just A Hat

      Ayew

        And you thought my answers were repetitive 🙂

        At least you know who you like and you are sticking with him!! Credit for that, mate.

          Haha fair play, it wont just be my opinion after his brace this weekend

        Rotation risk

    6. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 12 Years

      Shaqiri for the next 5, Ayew for the long term.

      Alright

        I have some sausages and perogis cooking 🙂

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Lovely. A touch of ex virgin olive oil on the perogis is heaven, although not very Polish.

  4. FrancescoLazio
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Is siggy on pens and free kicks. Or is Ayew a better pick?

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Gomis on pens

    2. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Shelvey has taken a fair few set pieces off him. Ayew is the man.

  5. Dr Dream

    Took on being manager of my sons U15's team this year. It's ok but the number of hoops the FA has us jumping through is ridiculous (Just had yet another email stating that they will fine managers for not marking out a technical area).

    Do these folk not understand that the harder they make it for folk to volunteer, with never ending rules, the more likely it is that they decide not to bother..?

    1. Atwood
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A technical area...for under 15's!? Madness.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yep. Same for every team in the country. Not only that but specific dimensions.

        5mts x 2mts and 10 mts apart either side of the half way line. Non compliance results in a ten quid fine.
        Ridiculous.

        1. Atwood
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          That's crazy. You're absolutely right, an increase in stuff like that only serves to drive people away.

          1. Dr Dream
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            That's on top of marking out a spectator area and the respect banners...Each one carries a further 10 quid fine for non compliance.

              • 11 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Do people actually come out and check up on this?

              1. Dr Dream
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Yes they do...and often.

                  • 11 Years
                  9 years, 1 month ago

                  Jesus that's sad. Reckon you could get your league to write to the FA? The FA really should be making grass roots football as easy as possible not taking money from it and certainly not for things like that.

      1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…

        Not a comment on you Wakey

        1. Dr Dream
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Oh I could write a book on it. Shocking behaviour by both managers and parents.

          I had a conversation with another manager on Monday who was proud that he drove kids hard....He only had nine players at his last match though....mmmmm.

          1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
            • 14 Years

            People seem to forget why they enjoyed playing football in the first place 🙁 .

            1. Dr Dream
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Yes....agreed.

                • 14 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                It probably helps that I am absolutely hopeless 🙂 .

                  • 11 Years
                  9 years, 1 month ago

                  The top comment is absolutely brilliant. Wakey have a read if you've any problems with parents from your own team.

                    • 11 Years
                    9 years, 1 month ago

                    from your article that is

      2. BantamPhil
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Deters young referees as well having been one myself, I officiated U13's games one season a few years back and the kids are never the problem, it's the parents

    2. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      What formation are you playing?
      Always thought a 4-3-3 is good structure for the kids as they learn positional sense etc. And then turn it to 4-5-1 when the opposition have the ball

      1. Dr Dream
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        None. I have four good defenders, two good mids and four really good free flowing lads up front. I'm not pinning them down and never will. We won 6-0 again at the weekend.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          I like it 🙂
          Getting close to the all out attack chip! 😉

          1. Dr Dream
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            They are playing with a smile on their face I'm glad to say. I don't really care if they win lose or draw (well a bit) as long as they go home having enjoyed the footy with their mates.

              You're a good egg Wakey ... great to hear there are people like you involved with junior sport. Don't let that other bollocks get in the way mate ... Hats off to you!

      • 11 Years

      blimey thats ridiculous

  6. Atwood

    9 years, 1 month ago

    2FT's. Thinking of this, thoughts?

    Rudd > Butland
    Pelle > Gomis

    Ruddy
    Cedric - Bellerin - Azpilicueta
    Silva - Sterling - Ozil - Mahrez
    Aguero - Wilson - Pelle

    Rudd - Huth - Coates - Wanyama

    1. Just A Hat
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'd probably save the GK FT and go into next week with two trades

      1. Atwood
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, not gonna do the GK move, does seem kind of a waste really

    2. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn't buy Gomis at this stage. How much money have you got?

      1. Atwood
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        1.6 in the bank

        1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Pelle to Tekkers maybe? Wouldnt do the GK transfer just yet.

          1. Atwood
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            How about Huth > Dawson and Pelle > Benteke?

            I quite like the look of that, and Huth looks likely to drop pretty soon too.

            1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              Yeah, really good transfers, WBA are so good defensively and Tekkers next two transfers are great.

              1. Tadic is the new Eriksen
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Fixtures even

              2. Atwood
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 1 month ago

                Yeah, think I'll go with that, cheers

                1. Kemosabe1
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 1 month ago

                  good shout

              • 11 Years
              9 years, 1 month ago

              I'd do the goalie move instead of the defender move as you don't want to be relying solely on norwich for cleanies at the back

    3. FBorges
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      What about Rudd > Myhill or Coates > Dawson?

  7. flippetyflop
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Is Huth scheduled to drop tonight?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Very close

    2. Buck The Trent
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      close

  8. Buck The Trent
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Crazy to go for triple WBA (Myhill, Evans, Dawson) ? Or double will do?

    1. Mind över Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Double

    2. Just A Hat
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Triple is fine, I'm probably going to slowly do it

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Double at most.

    4. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Thats crazy imo

    5. Bertzeiner-m
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not crazy at all genius actually

      1. Greenbackbøøg…
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        One goal and his defence is in tatters

        1. Bertzeiner-m
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          True but look at all the cs potential that is the 3 clean sheets in one game from the best defensive team in the league with best fixtures in the league. Also no attacking options that will tempt you like there is for Citeh

        2. BantamPhil
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          You don't have to play them all every week

    6. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Crazy because those fixtures aren't as pretty as everyone thinks they are. And Myhill has been playing out of his mind - it's not like they aren't giving up chances. But that's just one man's opinion.

    7. Tiamani Warrior
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      i think triple is great - except myhil a slight concern with the lind signing

    8. BantamPhil
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm not even sold on having one, so yeah I guess triple is crazy

    9. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Im considering doubling, wba are great at the back

    10. Ziegler1988
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm considering a treble up. Only problem is lack of baps

  9. racerx
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I've got Milner and Pelle still... scuffing and need help. I have 1 freebie and nothing ITB

    Could do Couts and Diouf (-4) ... any other ideas

    1. Bertzeiner-m
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Actually I like Milner as a differential to other misfiring pool options. Pelle>Diouf could work out, nothing worth a hit though

      1. racerx
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        thanks

    2. MicksMasterMike
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Just swap out Milner for the moment, although he does have two decent fixtues to grab a goal.

    3. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Pelle to Diouf. No hit, Milner could serve you well.over the next two, absolutely no rush to get him.out.

      1. racerx
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

    What's the feeling on Aguero this week? Are people sticking with captaining him with kind fixture or is this the week everybody takes a gamble on somebody else?

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on.. the point is you don't get fooled again

      1. Atwood
        • 14 Years

        I try and sneak that reference in all the time

    2. The Left Duke #3
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'm sticking

    3. Tadic is the new Eriksen
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      If Pelegrini says he's good to.start, I'll captain him without a doubt.

      If there are question marks hanging over him, I'll be captaining Yaya.

      like said in the scout cast... i have capt'd him for so long.... i feel i need to stick with him... he always does better at home and someone with aguero skill and class is bound to hit form.... and the one week we decide to go maverick is the hatrick week.

      whilst the stats and fixtures are good for him.... i'll keep captaining him

      you've only lost Shaw (sou) and Pedro (ARS)...not something to be upset about,, Silva & aguero played on tuesday

      Doubling up on Liverpool in the form they are in now and straight after a Europa League game is asking for trouble.

    2. GreennRed

      Pedro to Ayew, Payet, Lens.

  15. Cerylin

    best replacement for Shaw? Already have Kolarov.

    1. M8
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It would be Bellerin but it's a bad week to bring him in. I'm just playing Souare away at Spurs and probably bringing Bellerin in a week or 2 later.

      Whichever good defender works best with your other defs in terms of rotation. Without knowing that, its hard to reccomend any, but Nyom, Prödl and Dawson are all pretty safe bets.

          All depends if you think he will score well.
          Not really a fan of his and think there are better options.

          1. The Raging Bull
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            i'm going 3-5-2 this GW and he'll be on the bench. Next up for Arsenal after Chelsea is Leicester away and strong possibility benched with Walcott ahead of him. After that Arsenal host United. Think his price may drop further by then.

            Just don't want to take a -4pt hit to ship him out this week, when i can do it next GW for a free.

              With Giroud banned in Europe does this make him more certain to start league games?

    Yaya - Mahrez - Ayew - Mane - (Bentelab)

    Play schmei over butland?

    1. Bertzeiner-m

      Mane>Sako, Shaq, or Sanchez perhaps? Maybe Kompany>Kolarov

      1. bennyp
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        I am very tempted by Sako and Sanchez. Dunno about Sanchez for this week though..

        1. Bertzeiner-m
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Sako looks an excellent player and playing a poor Spurs team away from home. Sanchez is an excellent player out of form but surely he wont go on with out scoring? Kompany>Kolarov is bound to happen eventually as the BAPs are only going one way

        1. Nerazzuro

          True but Stoke at home and chance to prove themselves. not much in the decision though...
