Mark Sutherns (1:06)

Hello, hello, hello and welcome to Scoutcast brought to you by Fantasy Football Scout. As always, you are joined by me and Hibbo, who have the usual background we have and Nacho seems to be in a nursery. Welcome to everybody.

Nacho, how is it going this evening, my man? You are surrounded by unusual surroundings.

SPEAKER_4 (1:29)

Yeah, I mean, evening everybody first and foremost. Yeah, anyone that's watching this right now, I thought to myself, why do I need a green screen in the back of my chair when I can effectively have an entire green screen painted on my wall? So yes, I moved house over the weekend and seemingly, my now office is ready to go in terms of studio settings. Really, I've got a plant in the background. I've got this thing. I don't know what this is up here. So yeah, this is the new settings now.

Mark Sutherns (2:00)

I like it, mate. But the house move went well, all happy. Obviously distracted you from FPL.

SPEAKER_4 (2:06)

Oh, I'm so happy about this house move because we're going to talk about it, of course, how the week's gone on, but it's not been the best few weeks for my team, but I'm just delighted to be with you two today. That's the main thing.

Mark Sutherns (2:18)

Exactly. And that's what we say every week, isn't it? We always make it better for each other most of the time. Hibbo, how's it going, my man? Little red arrow for you this week, but how's it going in general?

SPEAKER_5 (2:29)

It's going okay.

Small, smallish red arrow. I think I dropped about a thousandth in rank or two thousandth in rank, which given the game week was okay. It was a bit of a strange game week, I think, for everybody. We saw the kind of announcements slightly before kickoff in different games about all big players are going to miss out. And it was the case, like we saw at Yale-Pedro, obviously, miss out, you know, and Kealfure was benched. And a lot of the discussion, I think, for us last week was about Brighton assets and most people then got them as auto subs off the bench, which he probably didn't really want because it was a bit of a flat game for Brighton assets as well. But no, I think it's interesting. I think we've last talked about tonight. Yale-Pedro is obviously the main talking point, I think, for everybody. And it kind of shakes the template up a bit because I think he's going to be a big topic for us tonight. But he's sitting on about 95% of engaged teams at the minute. And I don't think it's a bad thing for the game because template-wise, it kind of felt as if things were getting a wee bit stale. And now this gives people a chance to maybe shake on a wee bit.

Mark Sutherns (3:25)

Yeah, this is genuinely, it's, we've got so much to cover tonight. And obviously we had quite a bit to cover even without the Pedro injury, with Pedro injured, with him being so highly owned, there's not many people out there without Pedro in their teams. But I'm saying that only 66% of the people on this stream own Pedro, because Nacho doesn't own him in his team. So he doesn't have to worry about this week, but maybe he can give us an unbiased view. We do have our points to talk about. I'm just going to tell you what we're talking about tonight, because I want to get onto it pretty quickly. We've got an advert for our sponsor this week as well. Then we've got the XGI tables, we've got a free hit draft, which I am not going to lie, but I'm slowly falling in love with. Then we've got the Captain C Matrix, we've got our fixtures for clean sheets, fixtures for goals, we've got to talk about Bournemouth Assets, we're going to talk about Pedro Replacements, we've got the new COM teams, we've got our BUS teams, and we've got a Q&A. I was not lying when I said we've got an awful lot to get through. So let's quickly go through the points. I say quickly, I might hover on mine for a little bit for some reason.
