The ScoutCast – Episode 211 – Beleaguered

It’s quite ironic that, in an episode that focuses on our experience and strategies of mini-league management, my long-term rival on that score goes awol.

Granville is waylaid by “homework” and misses out, but Luke crashes in mid-cast to join Jonty, Andy and myself as we deliver an 80-minute episode, which includes our dubious insights on navigating a team to mini-league glory – mind games and all.

Once again guided by your community questions, we take on the Diego Costa fall-out, the rising stock of Spurs on form and Everton on fixtures, while finding time to wade in on the demise of former darling Sergio Aguero under the stewardship of Pep Guardiola.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first beamed live via our YouTube channel on Tuesday night. Be sure to subscribe to get notice of future live episodes.

    There's a mistake in the artice title - it's the 211th ScoutCast episode not the 201st.

    For all the Johny Evans owners:

    ALBION will assess the fitness of Jonny Evans later this week before finalising their plans for the Premier League clash with Sunderland at The Hawthorns on Saturday (ko 3pm).

    “Jonny is closer, so we’ll have a good look tomorrow and see where he is,” Pulis told Albion’s official website.

    “It’s difficult to say with Jonny,” said head coach Tony Pulis when asked about the defender’s chances of returning to action against the Black Cats.
    “We were not expecting him to miss the Spurs game so we’re taking nothing for granted.
    “It’s a different injury to his earlier problem but it is in the same area as his calf.
    “We will have to wait and see.”

    1. Whats the Mata?

      The fitness of Evans is important for owners of all WBA defensive assets because they look crap at the back(clean sheet terms) without Evans

        I know Evans and Defoe. Guess an Evans no show with Holebas replacing is a good thing.

          My exact strategy hehe

      Thank you for the info I was looking for something like that but couldn't find anything.
      Also can affect Defoe owners as WB definitely looked better with Evans

        Injury is "in the same area as his calf." So Mr Pulis, it's his... er... calf, that's injured?

  4. Sweetboi

    Pick one please lads:

    a) Origi > Negredo

    b) Origi > Crouch

    c) Play Origi

    d) Snodgrass > Stanislas (bench Origi)

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      B if you plan to go to a 3-5-2 and bench him most of the time, if not you need to upgrade him to a more expensive player imo.

    2. Squashed

  7. Shrimpy

    Stuck on what to do here. 2FT 0.1 ITB

    Foster, Pickford
    Alonso, Lovren, Pieters, Evans, Amat
    Alexis, Alli, Siggy, Phillips, Stanislas
    Kun, Ibra, Barnes

    Maybe Kun > Kane & Siggy > Coutinho?

    1. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      looks good moves

      or Kun to lukaku
      Siggy to Eriksen
      and upgrade Evans to Spurs defender if you can

    2. Pinky Blinders
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Not a bad move, although I would look to upgrade your defense first, but I tend to favor a solid backline.

    3. Shrimpy
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Cheers lads, Kane or Lukaku is the question now, tough choice.

    4. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Kun -> Lukaku
      Amat -> Coleman / Baines / Rose

  8. Pinky Blinders

    Isn't a neck injury for a guy that is known for his head ball prowess sort of a big deal? Not sure how much to read into this Carroll has whiplash talk. Seems like it's almost an inside joke, like the dude is showing up in small claims court with a neck brace after a minor fender bender?

    1. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      I blame injury lawyers for u.

            True that. Now I have decided to stop blaming others and stop behaving like a punk when I am here. Sorry to all ffscout related people.

      Chambers Walker Alonso
      Schlupp Love
      Coutinho Sanchez Alli Phillips stanislas
      Kane Ibra Crouch
      0itb. Thoughts?

      1. KUN+10
        • 9 Years

        Maybe schlup to Yoshida...soto has good fixtures coming up

        1. Dreams
          • 7 Years

          Is he nailed?

          1. KUN+10
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            He seems to and is only 4.2

      2. The Nuttmxn
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Looks god to me, pretty similar to what I'd WC into, no love for a Chelsea player though?

        1. Dreams
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Alonso. I am planning to do two things:

          1. Coutinho> Pedro after this week.
          2. Sanchez> hazard after gameweek 24.

          1. The Nuttmxn
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Yeah, meant midfielder, not sure on getting Pedro in for Liverpool and Arsenal but just see Hull as too good a fixture.

            1. Dreams
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              But I am just terrified at not owning Sanchez. Then I can do:

              1.Sanchez to hazard and coutinho to ozil. Thoughts?

              1. The Nuttmxn
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 12 Years
                7 years, 8 months ago

                Fair enough, think I'd have both and downgrade Kane to Lukaku to find the money to turn an 8.something mid to Hazard but that's me.

                The team is very good, I don't think I'd bother with Ozil atm.

          2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Never get rid of Sanchez unless he is on a stretcher. He is bionic!
            He can play center striker or wing. He is the most valuable player in FPL this year... IMHO

      3. Phil Dagger ⭐
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        good solid team
        only concerns are Schlupp and no Chelsea attack

      4. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        This is a solid team. And you stretched it to 0itb... you are a good manager.

        1. Dreams
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          That's the problem. I just saw the previous scotcast where Jonty was talking about flexibility. Injuries have been disrupting my season. I am worried about that.

          1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            You can play a 3-5-2 with Crouch out or 3-4-3 with Crouch in- you have flexibility

            1. Dreams
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              Do you think crouch will be playing regularly?

      5. mcrayeps
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        A) (triple chelsea with only 1 spurs - alli)
        Brunt
        Costa Lukaku

        B) (triple spurs with alli)
        Rose
        Kane Defoe

        i prefer on A but it scare me having only 1 spurs on their good fixtures from GW 23

        1. mcrayeps
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          lol where am i posted

          1. Dreams
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            B is better. Chelsea have tough fixtures after hull.

  10. Liquidate
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Is everyone really just ditching Kun? I get that he's been frustrating, esp given his price but surely his upcoming fixtures of west ham, swansea, bournemouth is worth hanging on to for a bit more?

    P.s. I'm saying this because I'm seriously considering whether to do the same but i'm afraid his explosive returns will bite me in my arse later on.

    1. KUN+10
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      12.8 is just too much dough for a player that has not been delivering. You have Ibra, Kane and Costa that have been much more consistent.

    2. The Nuttmxn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I ecpect most to ditch as he just isn't in the box enough, the problem is coming from the faffing they do passing the ball about the back, which pulls people back to help out with the awful passes many of them are making.

      If your team looks fine with him, he should improve with better fixtures, don't expect anything this week though. If the price is hurting you though you shouldn't fear ditching him.

      1. Liquidate
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Well, my current squad is

        Pickford, Grant
        Rose, Holebas, Alonso, Jones, Amat
        Sanchez, Lallana, Allí, Phillips, Fletcher
        Ibra, Kun, Anichebe

        Was thinking of swapping Pickford for Valdes.

        Any other transfers would mean me taking a hit, and with kun & kane going up against each other, I don't think its worth the swap?

        1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Fletcher to someone you can play in a 3-5-2; keep an eye on Davies (Everton); he could go straight for Fletcher. See if he is nailed at the next fixture.

    3. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      only thing making you holding him is fear and fear only

      I trust Kun but not Pep

      1. Liquidate
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Precisely, but Kun has a knack of exploding all of a sudden, and with not a great % of ownership, seems like a good differential to move up the leagues.

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          No point in keeping a differential who will explode once in a while, you can make more points somewhere else in the meantime. But yeah, for now I would keep him since he has Swansea game in GW24.

    4. Pinky Blinders
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      the issue is two fold, which I found out the hard way and lead me to conclude he needed to go. First, he severely restricts upgrade options elsewhere. Second, if you don't captain him, you don't really give yourself a chance to reap the full differential rewards. So it's a double whammy of pain, team is unbalanced and your captain option is pretty much locked in week after week. I tried it for awhile but all I got was red arrows. So figured out a different way to make up ground. Does feel better to have more options instead of waiting on a singular moment that there seems no signs of coming anytime soon.

  11. AllStars
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Bench two of the following four, I am struggling on who will be the lowest scorers:

    Friend (West Ham at Home)
    Defoe (WBA Away)
    Can (Swansea at Home)
    Walker (Man City Away)

    Currently Can is first sub and Friend is second.

    1. KUN+10
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Can/Friend

    2. Kered
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I'm having a similar dilemma. Tempted to bench Rose because Vert is out..

  12. Kered
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Would you start Rose or Friend?

    1. AllStars
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      have a similar decision between Friend and Walker, at the moment Walker is starting, so would go rose to start

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Friend

    3. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Rose... is much more attacking than Friend ... is this really a debate?

  13. Phil Dagger ⭐
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    Thoughts ?

    Heaton (Grant)
    Alonso Rose Baines ( Jones Chambers)
    Sanchez Eriksen Alli Phillips (De Roon
    Ibra Lukaku Giroud

    1.0 million itb

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Chambers over Rose?

      1. Phil Dagger ⭐
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        I have stuck my decision with Rose 🙂 but thanks that's certainly an option

      2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        As above... Rose is an attacking defender often at the midfield position; Chambers is not an attacking defender. Why Chambers?

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          CS pts over attacking returns imo

          1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            Rose last 6 fixtures:
            9, 11, 4, 6, 5, 6
            As good or better than cleanies in 4 of 6;

            1. Holmes
              • 10 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              And those fixtures were?

              5 of them were WBA, Saints, Watford, Burnley, Hull.

              I'm not saying Rose is a bad pick but attacking returns cant be predicted by any means, they just come in any random weeks. So I would prefer to go for someone who has more chance of CS

            2. Holmes
              • 10 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              Its all about personal choices/plan though... So cant see any flaw in your logic aswell.

              1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
                • 8 Years
                7 years, 8 months ago

                I agree that City is a less likely clean sheet. But Everton managed and Spurs defense is very good. So if you can get attacking and cleanies, and money is not an issue, most people would pick Rose. But, it is all an evolution of facts so we will see if you are right..cheers mate!

    2. _Freddo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      Looks great (as always) wouldn't be scared of playing Rose, he's so much more than clean sheets.

      1. Phil Dagger ⭐
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        as always 😮

    Foster (Jakupovic)
    Daniels Alonso Walker Baines (Amat)
    Coutinho Sanchez Eriksen Antonio (Carrick)

    Where should I be looking to improve my team?

    1. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      has to be crouch or Carrick depending what you want to play 3-5-2 or 3-4-3

      love your name btw 😀

      1. Nani R U OK? R U OK ? R U O…

        Thanks on compliment....

        But who would i sell and to whom to upgrade Carrick?

        1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          Just was looking- you need two moves; maybe downgrade Crouch to fodder and upgrade Carrick to Stanislas

          Daniels after his easy fixtures are over could be downgraded + Maybe Antonio to Phillips and Then you could have decent money for a carrick or Crouch replacement I guess

    Help me solve my Origi-ache! Thoughts very much appreciated. Swaying towards B, but have Phillips and worried about the possibility of an incoming Ighalo...

    Morning all, G2G?

    Heaton
    Azpiliqueta Rose Brunt
    Sanchez (c) Hazard, Coutinho, Alli, Phillips
    Ibra Giroud

    Jaku, Jones, Chambers, Barnes

    Wildcarded last week and swapped Alonso for Azpiliqueta, still having nightmares about it now, tempted to change back but doubt I'd want to play a Chelsea defender against Liverpool or against Arsenal so may just roll the transfer.

    Thoughts?

        Thanks Phil, yeah, I've made my bed with Alonso so might as well sit it out until after Arsenal.

        Two frees appeal alot incase Hazard needs to be moved, just hope lightening doesn't strike twice this week with Alonso v Hull.

        1. Phil Dagger ⭐
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 8 months ago

          I did Alonso to Baines last week but that was due to other choices too

          although I have made a quick u turn and Got Alonso back in for Amat 😛

      7 years, 8 months ago

      Team looks set

      Although If I was on WC, I would have a combo of Alonso // Walker // Baines In my team.

      Since you already have Kane, I would ditch Alli for Pedro

      1. Dreams
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers moin. But I see most people here are doubling up or tripling up on Spurs. And Chelsea have tough fixtures after this. And Pedro's minutes are a doubt.

      2. Dreams
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 8 months ago

        And that baines injury

    3. Jayv807
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 8 months ago

      I know this differs from the previous opinion someone else gave, but I am steering clear of Southampton defence. They haven't kept a clean sheet in 5 I think and besides spurs, their opponents weren't too tough. Team looks good though. My only suggestion would be crouch to Barnes to fund Yoshi to Brunt. WB aren't keeping clean sheets either but at least Brunt has some attacking potential (more so when Nyom returns). No harm leaving as is though.

  21. mcrayeps
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 8 months ago

    A) (triple chelsea with only 1 spurs - alli)
    Brunt
    Costa Lukaku

    B) (triple spurs with alli)
    Rose
    Kane Defoe

    i prefer on A but it scare me having only 1 spurs on their good fixtures from GW 23

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years

      Tricky, can go either way... A looks better

  22. C_G

    Rondon a good (c) option for the next few GWs?

        Haha yeah you're right. Btw you think Pogba ---> Coutinho (-4) is a good idea?

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years

          Pogba with Hull next week I guess... Better to save those 4pts I guess, maybe some other day 😛

      I know benching Toby seems a bit of waste of moneon the bench, but I think City will score so happy to take a chance on that.
