The ScoutCast – Episode 134 – Starter

Gently does it. Granville and I ease ourselves into the season with another thirty-minute bite-size podcast, gradually building up our fitness before we go full tilt next month.

Yes, it’s just the pair of us again, cuddling up in our intimate studio to discuss the events of Gameweek one, whilst casting one eye on the fixtures and events to come this weekend.

We get through the usual array of regulars, with Granville explaining how a wedding and a bout of childcare threatened to ruin his campaign, just as it gets out of the blocks. We reach out to all those Siggy benchers, whilst picking the bones out United’s limp corpse following their opening day defeat. We then chat Fabregas vs Hazard, Ivanovic vs the rest (they’re going to run and run) and sing Ultimate’s praises for helping the previously unloved play their part in our Fantasy seasons.

Pick at the buffet via this link, or dash straight to the main course via the handy player below….

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

    Anyone know the best site for sortable FPL stats from last year? Looking for a cheap (4.0-4.5), nailed defender that isn't a complete waste of space. Dummet? Duff?

    Krul/Begovic
    Vlaar/Debuchy/Dier/Clichy/Caulker
    Silva/Eriksen/Sterling/Fabregas/Sigurdsson
    Jovetic/Bojan/Diego Costa

    Looking to free up some money to move Jovetic. Would you move Clichy (5.5) or Debuchy (5.5)?

      Also, I remember Rogers saying about two weeks ago that Liverpool definitely weren't getting Balo so he's obviously not BR's pick.

      An interesting buy.

      Liverpool have a habit of turning out prolific forwards over the years.

      If Liverpool go with two forwards, it will be interesting to see if either Balotelli or Sturridge will pass to each other!

      Free transfer or not?

      If not, I'd save, since aguero will probably see 30 minutes, as it is early in this season, ok vertical should play the 60 beforehand. His stats were promising.

      If not, I'm very ingested in both Pelle and Rivière.
