The ScoutCast – Episode 140 – Gloaty

After the best Gameweek tally in living memory, I reserve the right for a bit of a gloat. Having risked the Wildcard back in Gameweek 7, the stars aligned and everything fell into place last weekend, leaving my ScoutCast co-host, grumpy Granville, grabbing at straws and smashing TV sets in frustration.

After last season’s defeat, I revel in my moment of glory but still find time to lock horns with Granville over the great Costa debate. Is Jose playing with our minds? I certainly think so but, as Granville points out, I reckon the Lunar landings were fake. I love a good conspiracy, me.

Congratulate yourself via this link or bask in smugness via the handy player below…

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

    Forster
    Baines. Clyne. Wisdom
    Adm. Fab. Sterling. Siggy
    Kun. Pelle. Welbeck

    Subs. Elliott. Moore. Marney. Duff

      I don't think it can get more template after selling Costa than that :p

      1. super zlatan
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah. I ain't that punty am I?

        πŸ˜‰

        Still I'm happy with it. (I think)

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      7.5/10 quite Template

    3. Puyol Pants Up
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Marney first sub

      Looks good. No Costa πŸ˜‰

      1. super zlatan
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Is marney back?

        1. Puyol Pants Up
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Not sure. But if he doesn't play then have Moore/Duff second sub

    4. Chris_White
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I have 9/11. In other words, sexy πŸ˜‰

      1. super zlatan

        What's your differentials to my team Chris,?

        1. Chris_White
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          DDG and Chambers instead of Forster and Wisdom. (Bertrand instead of Clyne too)

          I think you have the upper hand...

    5. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Very similar to mine. Don't be annoyed if it's template, there's a reason players become template in the first place.

    6. Wings Fan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      In the starting lineup I only have one different player! Taylor for Wisdom

  2. Puyol Pants Up
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Siggggggggggggggggggggggy (C)

    20 points + guaranteed πŸ˜‰

    1. Bolivian Seaman
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      He has scored only once this year. It might work though

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        How many goals has he scored for Iceland though? He definitely has goals in him. Leicester have also conceded the most shots in the EPL.

        1. Count of Monte Hristo
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          He is playing for Swansea tomorrow πŸ˜‰

          1. Puyol Pants Up
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            I know he is. But he has the potential to score goals, that's my point.

            1. Count of Monte Hristo
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 11 months ago

              I know πŸ™‚

    2. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      His shooting stats are less impressive..But worth a think

    3. Kerrazy
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      based on?

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Myself.

    4. Chris_White
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Currently VC, might switch.

    5. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Good punt this. He's my VC after Aguero.

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        I wanted to (C) him against Newcastle but everyone told me not to. Not listening to them this time!

        1. Trading Bear
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          I too had him (c) for that game. Listen to the advice but ultimately always do what you think is best.

  3. Kerrazy
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    to those that still have their WC intact. when are yall planning to use it ? i'm tempted to WC to fit Aguero & Costa with Walcott in me team..

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I'm planning to use it after I use my Jan WC

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        This

      2. The Iron Tulip
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Same

    2. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Thinking the same

    3. GoonerByron
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      No plans yet... Havent had a great season so far but have the cash in the right place still to make any changes I need with Aguero, Costa, Sanchez in my team... I've used mine by week 5 every other season so I have no idea what to do with it!

    4. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I think if you still have it at this stage, it's better to be used post-Jan WC and catch the double gameweeks.

    5. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      use it after JAN wc πŸ™‚

  4. saikado
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Please rate my team,

    Begovic,Foster
    N.Taylor, Clyne, Duff, Moore, PvA
    Fabregas, Sterling, ADM, Dorrans, Arfield,
    Costa, Pelle, Aguero

    In the bank 0.1 and have 2 free transfer.

    Which player should I transfer out to get baines?

    1. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Costa > Welbeck
      PVA > Baines

    2. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      costa out

  5. Get up ya bum
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Price change boffins. Much chance of an Oscar rise or Siggy drop in the next couple days?

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      No and Siggy is near rising.

      1. Get up ya bum
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks BG. Thoughts on ADM/Costa > Eriksen/Aguero, leaving exact coin for Sig > Oscar next gw?

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Not entirely convinced by Oscar tbh, but see the appeal of losing Siggy for those 3 fixtures. The other moves are decent, if somewhat risky.

  6. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Guys am I good to go? Already used my FT to do Costa to Pelle.....any other changes for a hit? maybe Moreno to rose? or naismith to berahino? cheers

    1. A.T

      Nothing worth a hit there Imo.

    2. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      yea moreno out

  7. Dr Dream
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Krul (!) (Krul's mate)

    Ivan Toby Baines (Duff Hutton)

    ADM Tadic Hazard Siggy (Chadli)

    Berahino Aguero Pelle

    Not decided who to go with between Siggy and Chadli...other than that..BRING IT ON..

    1. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Went for Berahino in the end? Who else were you looking at?

      1. Arvin-ation
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Bench Siggy for me.

      2. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Sakho..obviously but the fixtures nudged it.

        I was mindful of getting Costa back in if I needed to so it was better to downgrade to a cheap striker with either Berahino or Sakho...Now I can get Costa back for a (-4) when he's fit.

    2. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Benching dilemma.

      Siggy edges it for me. Good luck.

      Rest of team looks nice.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah it is...My original plan this week was to ditch Chadli and Siggy in favour of Eriksen and Boyd/Obertan....and some money in the bank..Sadly the Costa situation scuppered that move.

    3. Chris_White
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Oof, dat benching problem πŸ˜•

    4. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I'd bench Chadli...horrible decision mind.

    5. Puyol Pants Up
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Bench Chadli. He seemed uninterested in the City game, Newcastle are recoviring well

  8. GoonerByron
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Seeing Costa in the Predicted Teams has really got my hopes up...

  9. Elniñorules
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Maybe we should recall Torres? He's on decent form.

    1. Chris_White
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      1 goal is it? More than he usually has had this time of year...

    2. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Drogba is still better in the blue jersey. Red suits Torres

    3. Edmond
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      πŸ˜†

  10. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    So is the safe captain choice considered to be Aguero this week?

    Anyone else on here going for Pelle or Siggy?!

    1. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Currently on

      Aguero(c)
      Pelle(vc)

    2. Chris_White
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Probably, although I think City will struggle.

      May go with Siggy.

    3. Puyol Pants Up
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Siggy (C)
      Pelle (VC)

      I have Aguero.

    4. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Think we'll see the following in terms of popularity:

      1. Aguero
      2. Pelle
      3. Siggy

    5. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Pelle

    6. Edmond
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      It's hard to look past Kun this week

    7. basikalus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Baines (C)
      Berahino (VC)

      captained Baines last week too though

    8. Redhulkster
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Pelle(c)
      Aguero (vc)

  11. Mr Sarcastic
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Did Terry => Baines before Baines price rise "week ago".
    Now I just couldn't do Costa => Pelle (-4) yesterday, because...I don't know why actually.
    Lost 0.2 there yesterday, cos' will probably end up doing it today.

    If I had waited & not waited and done both transfers yesterday I could have kept Terry and got rid of Caulker for Baines + even saved 0.1 compared to situation right now.

    Lesson: don't bother with this game next season anymore.

    1. Mr Smith
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Cool story bro

  12. Mr. Grv
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    is it worth to do -4 of Costa doesn't plays to pelle / welbeck / lukaku
    if Costa is ruled out I hope he's rolled out for at least 2 weeks or I'll have to bring him with a ft back in

    1. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Wait for news

      1. Mr. Grv
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        aye '' captain

      2. FantaCity
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Will there be any news? My guess is Moo will wriggle out of a definitve answer

  13. FantaCity
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    One more price drop, and Costa will be back at the price I sold him for 😎

  14. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    So guys I'm pulling the trigger for

    Cahill + PvA --> Coleman + Chambers for Free

    I could've done Baines but I don't like the 20.2% ownership whereas Coleman is only 5.6%

    1. Edmond
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Baines has set pieces and penalties though πŸ˜‰

    2. Puyol Pants Up
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Good transfers. Nice punt

      I own both Cahill and Baines πŸ˜›

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks!

    3. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      why drop cahill?

      1. FantaCity
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        under-performing/overpriced

      2. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Cahill doesn't interest me now..If I go towards another premium defender it's gonna be a City player

        1. Gunner HitIT
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Apart from kompany nobody is 100% assured of a start

          1. Moin
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            I know..but Kompany is also a good pick..

    4. FantaCity
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Agree on Coleman, but think you could do better than Chambers - Hutton, or any W Brom defender have more chance of a CL and less chance of red cards IMO

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        I stuided Aston Villa's fixtures...even though they are easy but less chance of getting a CS...W Brom fixtures are good only for 3 weeks..why do a transfer for defender every 3 weeks..Arsenal/Tottenham looks best..out of both I prefer Arsenal..could get Rose instead of Kaboul as well

        1. FantaCity
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          One reason (for me) is that bar injuries, I have needed no transfers for weeks, so having a defender to update with fixtures is a plus

    5. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Good moves.

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years

        Thanks Man!

  15. Mr. Grv
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    who will win ?
    Forster vs lloris
    Rafael vs iva
    vlaar vs rose
    siggy vs Erik
    Sanchez vs ADM vs tadic
    Fabre vs hazard
    augero vs pelle
    welbeck vs berahino

    thanks

      Lol

  16. Sunny 😎
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Nobody considering Benteke as their Costa replacement?

    1. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      too soon

      1. Chris_White
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        This. Might switch Pellé for him when Southamptons fixtures get ugly.

    2. Trading Bear
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      No, not until a sign of his form returning. Too many better options on form right now.

      1. Sunny 😎
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        QPR next, you don't need form for that..

    3. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I have been going on for some time to many people that Benteke is a great pick! nobody listens

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Not on the wing he ain't.

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Why would Benteke play on the wing?

      2. Sunny 😎
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah, I thought he would get some interest but he ain't getting much by the looks of it

  17. Count of Monte Hristo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Costa to start against United in your opinion?

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      nope

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        No

    2. FantaCity
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Nah

    3. Puyol Pants Up
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Not really concerned about that tbh. If he doesn't then I will have bench players to cover his position. What interests me is if he is going to start against QPR at home next GW.

    4. MG7
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      i wanted to keep costa....but price fall is a big worry now....decided to get rid of him for the moment...but the question is who shud i bring in

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        isn't it a good thing that his price is dropping? It means he is becoming more of a differential!

        1. MG7
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          but if he dont play for 2 weeks and his price falls by 0.2-0.3.....then differential thing will not work instead we ll lose precious money which we can spend at some gud prospect

          1. Puyol Pants Up
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            Costa = season keeper.

            I think he will be back for QPR game.

    5. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Yes IMO

  18. Get up ya bum

    Right thanks for the help. -4 done

    Mccarthy

      Expect Sunderland to come hard at arsenal

    Who most likely to keep cs?

    A) Wilson
    B) Moore
    C) Duff

    1. FantaCity
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Tough one innit - Duff a small chance imo

    2. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      None of them will keep a cleanie but Wilson has the best chances imo

      1. FantaCity
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        you don't rate Pelle this week then? Second most captained in the poll?

        1. Sunny 😎
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          I don't think any of them will but I trust Stoke's defence more than the other two to restrict their opposition. And I think Pelle will get a goal max from this fixture nothing more than that.

    3. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      None tbh

      Why ?...Aguero is in the form of his life..as is Pelle...and Sakho, Berahino...Those being the main transfer targets..

      1. Gunner HitIT
        • 10 Years

        Agree

    Hi guys.

    I have Bego & 4.0 - and I'm tired with Bego.

    Should I:

    a) change Bego -> Lloris
    b) change 4.0 -> Foster and play rotation

    1. Chris_White
      • 13 Years

    Now I have already lost the value for this week on Costa so might as well stick with him right?

    2. Costa Nostra

      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Are you planning on having him for the season? Will dropping him for 1 week then picking him back up be worth 2 transfers for you, possibly missing out on a nice point haul as well? You already have Pelle and Aguero, so don't sweat it. Henderson off the bench will do until he plays. Be strong.

  24. Christina.

    Maureen's presser will be full of bullshit regarding Costa.

    It's just a matter of how much steam will come out the pile of shit.

      agreeeeee

    3. Dr Dream
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      It's not shit...He has an ongoing minor hamstring problem and has been in hospital for a stomach complaint. If Mou tries to play him on Sunday he is as mad as a bucket of frogs.

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Or he could just be a lying rat.

        1. Dr Dream
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Obtuse is a more diplomatic word...Mind you he has said all along that Costa has an injury and it's been us who have decided he wasn't telling the truth...He may have played him but that's not the same as saying he hasn't been carrying an injury.

          I'd be more worried that all this is connected to the injury at the back end of last season and that there may be a lot more of this to come.

          1. Christina.
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

            He hasn't looked in any discomfort previously iro the ongoing injury. This might be a new injury. I can't imagine the stomach bug is so bad. Two days on a drip, a whisky and all systems go!

      2. Billy Gilmore
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        I can't even see how a hamstring injury can be ongoing... the stomach bug and groin strain are different matters entirely.

        1. Dr Dream
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Dunno Billy...He's gone from somebody who was going to get better to something of a permacroc in my eyes...We'll have to see...

      No doubt, his press conferences are tedious these days.

      I'm less interested in the presser, more interested in the squad being announced!

      1. Christina.

        Frustrating.

          Only thing that would be interesting would be something like "he's out until..." then a date being named... but that isn't going to happen!

            • 10 Years

            I'm looking for a "game time decision". That will make some "thigh jerkers" who sold him this week a little worried.

            1. Christina.
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 11 months ago

              That's my guess.

      I'm guessing he will rule out Costa for the United game at least.

      1. Christina.

        Only to fecking play him.

    Is it a bad idea to WC this week with Aguero Pelle Sterling & Gylfi in my team.

    1. Gunner HitIT
      • 10 Years

      a big yes

    2. thetinkerman
      • Has Moderation Rights

      What's your team now? What changes would you make? How many are urgent and how many are "vanity" transfers?

    3. Randy_Marsh
      • 14 Years

      depends on the rest of your team too, it's a squad game

      No. Just a vocal minority making you think otherwise πŸ˜‰

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

      Why would you be happy about that?

    5. Pasqualinho
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I'd love to hear the logic - why would you be happy if he drops in price? Surely the perceived advantage in keeping Costa is that those who sold him won't be able to buy him back?

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Price drops = Lower ownership

        Having Costa recently has been like having 10 players in your team. It doesn't matter if he gets 20 points or 1 point because everyone has him. If Costa isn't back for United his price will continue to drop more and more, right before QPR. At that point it will be 3 weeks since his last game, and since its only a Hamstring game he should be back. Could easily score 2-4 goals in that game. And everyone will be crying about not owning Costa πŸ˜€

        1. Pasqualinho
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Lower ownership, sure - I can understand that. But ownership can reduce massively without too many price drops - surely that's a better thing to hope for than price drops? As soon as Costa is deemed fit enough to play he'll be brought back in en masse, especially if cheap enough. You won't get tears but a lot of posters congratulating themselves on losing 0 points but saving themselves a lot of cash.

    6. Sunny 😎
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I'm holding and hoping Jose at least gives a time frame for which Costa could be out for

  28. mr messi
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Who to keep Clyne or Bert? I currently have both, someone needs to go for Baines.

    1. Puyol Pants Up
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Keep Bert

    2. thetinkerman
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Would hate to call that! Keep Bertrand I think

    3. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Keep the cheapest defender. Although price apart, Bert seems to be delivering more at both ends of the pitch currently.

  29. Pringle

    Sorry cant check it myself now so I ask here. Who were last night risers?

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Pelle

  30. SAINTS
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    I have 1FT to do this week but nothing pressing. I still have Davis in my squad but after his handy 6 points last week will keep him in until we play City. Therefore I'm maybe thinking of taking out DDG, but for who? I'm thinking maybe Howard as I only have 5.4m to spend.
