ScoutCast Episode 264 – FPL bandwagons to jump on or avoid

Buoyed by some impressive scores from the opening day, the Scoutcast crew are in optimistic mood as they tackle the key issues facing Fantasy managers ahead of Gameweek 2.

I’m joined by Andy, Az and new Scoutcast face Neale (aka Skonto Rigga) to separate the wheat from the chaff in the Fantasy Premier League’s transfer market.

We ponder whether reports of the demise of forwards have been greatly exaggerated and list the under-performing players from Gameweek 1 who may well punish their sellers.

Our rough with the smooth round-up features a tale of two benches.

While later in the show I come under attack from my colleagues, and even a moth, as we search for this season’s budget midfield gem.

We end by revealing our Captain choices when Neale unleashes one of the most surprising armband selections the Scoutcast has ever seen. It caps an impressive debut to remember for both him and the moth.

    Thinking of going from a 3-4-3 to a 4-4-2 post GW 2. What are your thoughts on Peltier > Bellerin & King > 4.5 ST?

    Current team:

    DDG
    Robertson - Mendy - Mee
    Salah - Mane - Lucas M - Richarlison
    Aguero - King - Zaha

    Subs: Hamer, Wan Bissaka, Peltier, Hudson Odoi

    1. MadridistaRants
      • 9 Years

      Damn! Awful first post.

      1. Respect My Authoritah
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Also awful moves 😉

        Bellerin isn't nailed, and Arsenal will still struggle at the back imo. The general idea is viable though, but I'd go for PVA

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

          How is Bellerin not nailed.
          I am actually considering getting Nacho too as a defence double up when he is back as Kola not back anytime soon either.

          1. Respect My Authoritah
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Because Emery. Both full back spots will rotate if the players aren't injured. Check his history.

        2. MadridistaRants
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          You think Lichsteiner will displace him at RB when Monreal is back? Could happen but he'd have to be really poor for Emery to do that.

          I'm tempted because of that run of fixtures.

          1. Respect My Authoritah
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Yep. Lichsteiner is a better defender

        3. noquarternt
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          PVA over Bellerin at the same price is insane.

          1. Respect My Authoritah
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Their defence is about similar level, PVA is better going forward and he's nailed. I think it's insane to even consider Bellerin with Emery's history of rotating fullbacks

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

      For free? I like it.
      Leaves a pretty much optimal defence, decent mids and a very good front line.
      Lucas Moura might need addressing sooner rather than later would be the only concern.
      My locked in move for next week for free is just Kabasele to Bellerin with 1 mil ITB for it.

      1. MadridistaRants
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah I'm not planning any moves this GW.

        I'm waiting for more info on BSilva/Mkhitaryan and plan to switch Moura to one of them after GW3.

    3. Ryan_P27
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I’m planning to do exactly that move. Although could change. I was looking at possibly rudiger as well.

  2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Aguero owners - how many points you think he needs to be considered a success for the weekend?

    A. 13+
    B. 9-12
    C. 5-8
    D. Less than 5

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B+

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Match or better than Salah.

      In general terms, C.

    3. Cok3y5murf
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      D

    4. rainy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      25 😉

    5. KneejerkJoe
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B ør D depending on Salah

      1. KneejerkJoe
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        C not D

    6. Pieterke30
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B

    7. waldo666
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      E. More than your other captain options.

    8. banskt
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B

    9. Bggz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      if he doesnt beat auba by a goal at least i'll be switcharooning considering auba has chelsea and they have hudders

    10. MadridistaRants
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      B

    11. noquarternt
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C or more than Salah.

    12. gergin
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Salah+1 or more is great, Salah-1 or less is awful.

  3. Scotty B
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Would you FH to this,?

    Lloris
    Coleman Stones Maguire
    Mahrez Alli Maddison Richarlison
    Aguero Kane Tosun

    1. rainy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Save your FH for a blank week, okay.

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

      No Salah, start again.

    3. Respect My Authoritah
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No. Fulham will cause Spurs problems

    4. banskt
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      No love for Vardy any more?

      1. kj3llern
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Vardy has a nice run of fixtures now. Definitly on the radar

    5. Jafoole_88
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'd want sterling over Mahrez

    6. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Love the Coleman pick.

      He’s this week’s 15 point fullback 😉

      1. Jafoole_88
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Or another haul for Mendy..

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Peps post match comments a little disconcerting

          1. Jafoole_88
            • 9 Years
            6 years, 1 month ago

            You mean how he wasn't pleased that he kept going forwards too often?

            1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
              • 14 Years
              6 years, 1 month ago

              I think the exact quote was “sometimes we want to kill him”

              1. My Name Is Pepu
                • 7 Years
                6 years, 1 month ago

                He said that Mendy as a player can develop a lot more this season. Plus, they tone in which he spoke was encouraging (if you've watched the presser).

                I don't understand what's the concern here?

                1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                  • 14 Years
                  6 years, 1 month ago

                  “Sometimes we want to kill him”

                  1. Jafoole_88
                    • 9 Years
                    6 years, 1 month ago

                    Mendy starts. He's risking his life!

                2. Jafoole_88
                  • 9 Years
                  6 years, 1 month ago

                  It's leading up to attempted murder.

                  1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
                    • 14 Years
                    6 years, 1 month ago

                    No one would ever suspect Pep

      2. banskt
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Coleman wouldn't keep a clean sheet. This week, it willbe from Davies, Pereira, Chilwell, Morriso, Mendy, Walker.

        1. Jafoole_88
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Agree, possibly Burnley game to be a clean sheet too

        2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          you’re putting the odds in your favour with that prediction... any others you want to throw in for good measure...

        3. banskt
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I mentioned 6, you can get 5... its a free hit. 😉

        • 11 Years

        He will not race above the stars. 😉

        But, will he start against Newcastle? Did Neil say anything?

      Hazard

    3. MadridistaRants
      • 9 Years

      Depends on your team.

      1. Rohun
        • 10 Years

    1. My Name Is Pepu
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Peltier to Bailly?

      Or you're saving that cash for a Kun to Kane move in the upcoming gameweeks?

      1. arndff_
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        A mini WC at GW3 is my desire.

    2. Jebiga
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Play wan bisaka maybe over peltier ?

      1. arndff_
        • 12 Years

    Who to play this gw: Peltier or Wan Bisaka or Cedric ?

    1. My Name Is Pepu
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      All potential 1 or 2 pointers.

      I'd play Cedric and hope for some attacking points.

    2. Karan14
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Cedric out of those.

  9. Bungey89
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Start peltier or Sturridge this weekend?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Do you really have sturridge? I’d say maybe Peltier to be honest, not sure sturridge can be relied upon... he could possibly sneak something from the bench

      1. Bungey89
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeh I’m thinking pelt have triple Liverpool anyway with Mané and Salah

      2. HellasLEAF
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Peltier but this one close.

        1. Bungey89
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Thanks

    2. banskt
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sturridge!!
      You are the first on here. I really hope he does great things this year.

      1. Bungey89
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Had a great pre season and didn’t think firm would start first game now stuck with him lol

        1. banskt
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Why stuck? He will come good and others will transfer him in. You got some early advantage over others, if anything..

  10. Karan14
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    If you could only own one of these from GW3 who would you get?

    A) Auba
    B) Sterling
    C) Hazard

    1. Zimo
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling

  12. The Tinkerman
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    BBC pointing out Man City struggled against HUD at home last season, trailing early on and only registering 7 shots on target, less than any other home game for them last year.

    1. Bungey89
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Hoping for an aguero blank here

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I’m captaining him, Bilva or Mendy... but no idea which

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      it was HUD last year, you watched the last week vs Chelsea?

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        *them

    3. Norman Conquest
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      to be fair it was played in may i wouldn't read too much into that they will maul them this time

    4. noquarternt
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Remember when they played Chelsea last week?

    5. banskt
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Also, another stat. Look up Premier League and Champions League results of City when de Bruyne didn't play. In the last 2 years, I found 7-8 matches, out of which City won only 2.

      There were some other comfortable wins against smaller teams where KDB came on late.

      Still, captaining Agüero.

      1. The Tinkerman
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I probably will also, just thought it was interesting

  13. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Want to make the Sanchez to hazard swap this week and make haz set and forget.He always demolishes arsenal and utd have 3 tricky away games and spurs in next 4.Thoughts?

    1. banskt
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Your username has the answer.

      1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
        • 7 Years

        😉

    2. bhunasallround
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Intelligent risk

    3. El Matador
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'd wait 1 week and get Sterling if you can afford.

    4. TaiwanHC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Do not sell Sanchez this week, I think he will explode

    5. Dokdok666
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Players who cost more than 9.5m are generally low value if you never (C) them. Transfer him in if you are going to (C) him regularly, if not then don't transfer him in

    I've just signed up as a member and I'm trying to work out how to use the member tools.

    How do I create a Watchlist? Do I just create my own stats table and add the players I want to keep an eye on?

    Also what other tools do you recommend to use for a new member?

    Cheers!

    1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      All the tools have the merits. I particularly like the members tables, ticket and player comparison. There isn't a watchlist as far I can remember. Just do that on the regular website.

      1. Waylander
        • 8 Years

    2. banskt

      Player stats and Team stats are the key features. Thats the gold mine. Look at other public tables or create your own public / private table.

      Comparison tools and I like the 6game projections for a rough idea on transfers

    After a good start of 100 points, I'm a bit concerned as to what to do here. Mainly not having Aguero this week. What would you do guys?

    Fabianski
    Robertson-Mendy-Luiz
    Salah-Mane-B.Silva-Jota-Richarlison
    King-Arnautovic
    Bench: Foster-Daniels-Mitrovic-AWB

    2.0 in the bank with a 0.5 profit made.

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Arnautocvic to Aguero

      1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Not enough in the bank for that move without taking a hit.

    2. Jebiga
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Save then make 3 transfers next gw...

      1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        That's what I'd like to do but a bit wary of Aguero going mental against Huddersfield.

    3. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      I wouldn’t do anything. Save your ft and captain Salah. Good team

    G2G? Really want to hold off for 2 FT.

    1. korbendallas82
      • 11 Years

      Not much to worry about.

  19. Dog and Fox
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Early kickoff for city on Sunday and late Monday football for pool. More goals in the late kick offs statistically inst it?

    1. noquarternt
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Irrelevant

    2. Ballistics
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      More fun to cover both.

  23. Ballistics

    6 years, 1 month ago

    What to do with Townsend (6.0) 1.0 in the bank and a FT.

    A) save (77 pts last GW)
    B) punt on Gundogan (5.5) (CAR, WOL, NEW).
    C) bring in Richarlison (6.1)(SOU, BOU, HUD)

    1. Mr Q
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

    2. korbendallas82
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Usually say save. But i would be tempted by c.

    3. TaiwanHC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C

  24. Klein

    1. korbendallas82
      • 11 Years

    2. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A - West Ham will have a point to prove imo

    3. rhysmd
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    4. Klein
      • 8 Years

      Thanks a lot guys. Makes sense

  25. Mr Q
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Got 1m in the bank.. with the kdb news. Do jota to bsilva?

    1. TaiwanHC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Not this week, save ft

    2. rhysmd
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I have Jota and am keeping for a few more gameweeks. Wouldn’t be a bad transfer though. Who are your other city players?

      1. Mr Q
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Aguero only... i did a last minute downgrade (bsilva to jota) before gw1 with the news om kdb and sterling back. regretting it now...

  26. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    how far do we think kdb will fall? looking at the delta he went down after losing about 10% of owners. given that he will be in a lot of ghost ship type teams I think another 20-30% may still sell, it will just depend at what rate.

    imagine if he fell to 9.6 I’d be licking my lips. too much to hope for?

    1. rainy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      The red flag will have multiplied the change threshold by two or three. 9.6 could happen but would take a while. Hope he's not out that long.

      1. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        ah of course didn’t take that into consideration. I have a sneaky suspicion he’ll be back sooner than we think

        1. gergin
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          He will not. It is second injury at damaged ligaments. May be longer, but not sooner.

  27. The 12th Man
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Firmino + 4 points with Salah (c)
    Or
    Aguero (c) with the option of Sanchez > Mane next week?

    1. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      so just to get this right you’d be selling firmino and salah to bring in kun? if so i really don’t think it’s a good plan

      1. The 12th Man
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        No. If I keep Firmino, then Salah would be captain.

        Firmino > Aguero (c) -4

  28. Scotty B
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Who to start this week?

    A Schneiderlin
    B Cook
    C AWB

    1. The 12th Man
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Cook

    2. Oven Glover
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Does it matter what we say? You’ll only post this exact question over and over until the deadline. What happened to the FH btw?

      1. Scotty B
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Was just pulling your leg...or was I?
        Different people on at different times with different views.
        Lighten up its Friday 🙂

        1. Oven Glover
          • 9 Years
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I don’t like any of those options but if it was my team I’d start AWB.

      2. Syd.
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I think he could be a goldfish

    3. We Will Klopp you
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      What a motley crew, B and hope for a goal

    4. Rust Cohle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You should just FH

  29. Sandy Ravage

    When do you think Pogba will become 'essential'? Looking for a way to upgrade Milivojevic to Pogba long term.

    1. shotgunnufc - MANIAC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      no signs he’ll be essential yet, good value maybe, but a long way from essential in that United team

    2. Syd.
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Never

    3. Respect My Authoritah
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Never

    4. @fpl_phenom
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      goog upgrade... Pogba should do well in his more advanced role this year... £8.0M seems a bargain IMO

    5. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Never. But I own him and am happy with him being a differential for now.

    6. GAMBIT
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Didn't he fall out with Mou?

    7. barracuda
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I got rid off Mili. Think he won't reach last season numbers. He only assisted twice and scored plenty from penos. He was a bad pick in my opinion.

  30. Kambo
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 1 month ago

    If you had both Sterling and Aguero who would you pick to captain this week. Sterling imo might play more minutes then Aguero based on getting more playing time last fixture. Also Sterling had better underlying statistics with more chances than Aguero. Surely this points to Sterling with the better potential for this week.

    1. Syd.
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Tricky. Penalties would probably swing it

    3. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I still think Aguero is potentially the most explosive option.

    4. waldo666
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Aguero

    5. Mini Mane Mo
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling. More pts for goals and clean sheets
