The Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 6

We turn to the Scout Picks and Differentials this morning in another attempt to get the better of Paddy.

Palace’s home clash with Leicester brings Jason Puncheon onto our radar. The Eagles have scored three times in two of their three league matches under Neil Warnock and kept a clean sheet in their last match at Selhurst Park – with Paddy willing to offer 9/1 on Puncheon to score and Palace to keep out their opponents, we’re willing to fork out £3.

Our bet of the week goes on Southampton’s clash with QPR at St Mary’s, though. Graziano Pelle is the focus of our attention as Paddy offer 15/2 for the Italian to score two or more and the Saints to register a clean sheet – a scenario that occurred in their previous home match. With the R’s yet to net on their travels, we’re all the more convinced and shell out £4 for the Saturday afternoon encounter.

Our final bet is kept for Monday evening, as Stoke welcome Newcastle to the Britannia. Victor Moses has nailed down a role on the Potters’ left and has offered plenty of attacking threat since making his Gameweek 3 debut – Paddy are offering 15/2 on Moses to score one or more and Mark Hughes’ side to keep a clean sheet against the Tyneside team and we’re prepared to part with our final £3 for this one.

    Lucy, if you don't mind me bothering you with another Saints related question.....

    What are the chances of Mane Not starting today? Can you see Long starting ahead of him?

    Oh and has Tadic looked like a good goal threat? Or is he more a Silva-esque player as some people on here seem to think.....does Mane look more like he'd be a better goal threat? Especially with his pace, would that be ideal for Tadic to put him through? Wishful thinking here 😀

    Thank you once again.

    1. Arvin-ation

      Top of the page. 😳

    2. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Mane is more skillfull than Long and an all round better option. He will get assists, goals and drive defenders to foul him in the box. Tadic is blooming.

      1. Lucy.
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Very fair assessment once again, bravo.

        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        What happens to Long, after all that money spent on him?! Impact sub? 😕

        1. Lucy.
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Different forward option to Pelle. With J-Rod out, those are our only two senior strikers.

            • 10 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            J-Rod.... 😯

            Forgotten man. Ron will have some good decisions to make when he's back. 🙂

            • 11 Years

            haha, was wondering what Jack Rodwell has to do with Soton and senior strikers

      2. Arvin-ation

        Mmm....Cheers 🙂

    3. Lucy.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Right I think Mane has the better goal threat but Tadic is most assured to start. It might, just might, be a week too early for Mane to play midweek and at the weekend. I think he'll start but it's not anywhere near the certainty about Tadic starting. In the next few mins, I will have a dig around on the Saints website and see if I can find any Koeman quotes on the issue!

      1. Lucy.
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        The only hint I can get from the latest presser is that he referred to Mané, Tadic and Pellè as 'important players'. No obvious selection hints. Apologies.

        1. Arvin-ation
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Ahh..that's fine.

          Cheers

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Mmm.....I'm not sure it's worth the risk of him not starting, especially since it's a hit. He did start midweek.....might just go for Tadic. Dammit..why'd you start midweek Mane.

        Please let me know what you find! Thanks

    Start Chadli or Naismith? Pretty 50/50 at the mo.

    1. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Naismith!!

    2. Game of Stones
      • 9 Years

      Naismith

    3. Steevo

      Naismith it is! Cheers fellas.

  3. Kevtheotter
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    ..Cant decide on this

    Rooney and Eriksen ----> Lukaku and ADM for a hit

    yay or nay???

    1. mojoindojo
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      nay

  4. Four Four Boyz
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Grazzzziannno!!

  5. The class of 92
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Suggestions for transfer? Need to use one

    Forster (Gilks)
    Clyne Pieters Naylor (Moreno,Moore )
    ADM Fabregas Siggy Sterling (Boyd)
    Costa Falcao Welbeck

    2FT, 1.0 in the bank

    1. Kevtheotter
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Falcao----> lukaku

      1. The class of 92
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Not for me

    2. Quaresma Team
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Upgrade Pieters to Rojo, who's nailed on and he's an amazing differential. I know I may sound like a stranger but United are due to a game like against QPR, therefore clean sheet is possible and Rojo is known for his offensive abilities.

      1. The class of 92
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I'm a united fan, he's just too expensive for our frail defence at the moment

      2. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Might as well get Rafael instead of Rojo and save £0.7m

  6. trigzor
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Who to bench?
    Shawcross Duff Moreno

    1. valurth
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Duff

    2. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Moreno. I don't see a clean sheet in the derby

      1. Jebiga
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Yea but he can be a scorer as well. OOP

  7. Quaresma Team
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Is it wise to go with Eden Hazard as a Captain instead of Diego Costa? I've got both and I think that Hazard may have more points and it'd be an amazing differential. Is it wise or just stupid and naive?

      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Good enough just to own him. Too risky not to (c) Costa.

  8. valurth
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    First 3 votes I'll play, come on give me some votes
    1. Duff (rate my team 2.12 says bench)
    2. Caulker (rate my team 2.45)

    1. Kevtheotter
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Duff

    2. Steevo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Duff...burnley can't score and wba struggle..has 0-0 written all over it ...hopefully!

  9. TonyVilliers
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    another 4 point hit to replace Herrera with Sterling?

    1. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      No. How many have you taken?

      1. TonyVilliers
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        1 so far.

        1. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          Herrera could do just as well as Sterling. Sterling played 120mins midweek too

          1. TonyVilliers
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 7 months ago

            Good point well made. Keeping him in.

    2. Kevtheotter
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      No need to do that

  10. Cheeseoid
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Krul clean sheet this week you can just hear it coming.

    1. lilmessipran
      • 11 Years

      Lol

    2. Mojo Rojo
      • 11 Years

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Stoke did lose 1-0 at home to Leicester so maybe they will struggle at home this year

  11. FootballFanatic365

    guys who should be benched baines or chambers...this week..?

    1. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Chambers. Baines would be crazy

      1. FootballFanatic365
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        baines indeed a better choice because of the set pieces? Just worried that Liv might run everton
        ragged???

    2. Mojo Rojo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Chambers

    3. Fitzy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      You shouldn't have Baines if you are considering benching him.

    4. valurth
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Never bench Baines, just accept every now and then 2 points you'll regret benching Baines if Everton get a penalty

      1. FootballFanatic365
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        thanks lads

    5. Game of Stones
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Chambers without a doubt

  12. Mojo Rojo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    G2G?

    Krul
    Clyne // Moore // Wisdom
    Fab // Ram // Sig // Sterling
    Costa (c) // Kun // Rooney

    Elliot // PvA // Boyd // Hutton

    Save FT?

  13. sneif4
    • 11 Years

    Currently on my WC and completely torn:

    Ulloa or Welbeck?

    1. Quaresma Team
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Welbeck without any doubt

    2. Bolivian Seaman
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Welbeck, Leicester have nugent and vardy to share points with

      1. valurth
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        and Arsenal do not have any point sharing players?

    3. valurth
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Depends on the rest of the team but get Ulloa for the next 2, keep money in the bank and then replace him with Wellbeck after the Chelsea game.

      1. valurth
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        then again, I went for Welbeck my self. Not certain Leicester can keep up this form. Arsenal have always been solid and if Welbeck keeps performing as he has in the first games he can score against any opponent

      2. Takedog1
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I'm doing this also. Ulloa on pens and on form

    4. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Welbeck

    5. Azathoth
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Welbeck

    6. Kevin Twine
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Welbeck.

    7. sneif4

      This^

  14. FPL Daniel
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Is it worth to offload Green for a hit. He is my keeper and the weak link in my team. He isn't getting saves even. Maybe for Mannone? And never will be a good time to sell a keeper. Sometimes you just have to do it. Also I plan to hold on my WC so no WC transfer for me than

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      So in summary Green out for a hit?

    2. Mile Plankton - Myth and Ch…

      When you put it that way. . .

    3. valurth
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Have you seen QPR, Green is terrible. QPR should replace him with any other keeper.

  15. tonycurrysrightleg
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Captain Rooney or Costa?

    1. Mile Plankton - Myth and Ch…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Costa.

    2. Kevtheotter
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Costa...Rooney will be playing deep as Blind will be playing CB...in my opinion...wait I hope not cause I still have him

    3. Muffinz
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Costa.

    Saturday morning madness.

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Does seem like lunacy - what's the rest of his/her midfield?

      1. Mile Plankton - Myth and Ch…
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        No idea.

  17. trigzor

    Who to play Moreno or Chadli?

    1. Game of Stones

      Chadli

  18. Mind över Mata
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Morning all, still pondering who to captain out of these two - I fancy a punt :

    1) Pelle
    2) Fabregas

    1. Game of Stones
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      1

    2. Mile Plankton - Myth and Ch…

      2

      1. Mind över Mata
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        Why 2, do you not think that Pelle will fire?

        1. Mile Plankton - Myth and Ch…
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 7 months ago

          I think Pelle will fail this week. And Fabregas used to love scoring against Villa.

          1. Mind över Mata
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years

      1. QPR have let in loads of goals against every decent side they've faced so far and Pelle's bound to be involved in them.

    Morning Sheeple, lets not fill the comments section up with the usual boring RMT's and will so and so get more points than such and such type nonsense today eh?

    Thanks!

  20. satish

    will mata play> MATA or Lamela?

  21. rl248
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    Time to wildcard...slate it as much as you like...

    Foster (Schmeichel)

    Moreno / Bertrand / Chambers (Duff / Hutton)

    Di Maria / Hazard / Sterling / Tadic / Sigurdsson

    Falcao / Pelle (Welbeck)

    1. FPLEL
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Are you on WC, or considering it? In any case, Costa.

      1. rl248
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I know man, but everyone's got Costa. I fancy a differential with Falcao because he will start scoring soon. Plus I've put in Hazard because he'll come good (hopefully this weekend!).

    2. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Costaless

    3. Mile Plankton - Myth and Ch…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      You didn't want Costa?

    4. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Bench options far too expensive

    5. rl248
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Falcao would be my differential, since everyone owns Costa. Madness. Hopefully Hazard will step up his game.

      1. rl248
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        *Madness on my behalf, I know.

    6. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Wouldn't have Moreno as Liverpool not as good as last season and still conceding goals

  22. Parm
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 7 months ago

    I think i'm sorted....

    Begovic;
    Baines. Clyne, Wisdom;
    Di María, Sterling, Ramsey, Sigurdsson;
    Diego Costa(c), Agüero(vc), Naismith.

    Hamer; Albrighton, Ferdinand, Hutton.

    (1FT; £0.8m ITB to carry over.)

    1. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      Looks good. Good luck!

      Very nice indeed. 🙂

    2. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Personally I would start Ferdinand instead of Baines , Albrighton instead of Di Maria and Huttinho instead of Costa and captain Huttinho 😉

      1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
        • 13 Years

        I think all three are due

  23. Lucy.

    1. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Duff

      I would play Duff if I had him because I doubt Naylor will CS.

    4. Parm

      Duff

      Duff

      Same issue, went for Duff as Sunderland are more likely to score than West Brom

      Btw it will be the same problem next week 😉

      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Duff, for sure.

    Krul out for a hit?

    1. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      9 years, 7 months ago

      Nope. Never for a keeper. It takes a clean sheet to put you back where you started and you never know Krul may get a cleanie he has to sometime

      1. FPLEL

        Ty, excellent point. It is essentially never worth it without an injury.

      Nah

    There's something almost wrong with captaining Costa because it feels too obvious...

    It's actually putting me off captaining him lol

      Snap! I know Villa were thumped y Arsenal but I've just got a feeling they are going to frustrate Chelsea and do a job on the like they didi to Liverpool. ..,still probably going with Costa though!!!

    Morning All! I'm really looking forward to some great football and fantastic (hopefully) FPL scores this weekend.

    There will be a lots of tears on here if QPR score a goal today 🙂

    1. Arvin-ation

      Not from me 😉

    2. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I reckon they will. Not too many people will have doubled up in defence though

  28. Manu5

    Who to bench, chadli or wisdom, or the unthinkable baines?

    1. Parm
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Wisdom.

    2. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Chadli, I think Arsenal will win 1 or 2 nil.

    3. Game of Stones
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      Defo not Baines, would probably bench Wisdom

    4. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      wise one

    5. WipWapJaws
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 7 months ago

      I have the same conundrum, to bench Baines for Duff

      1. Manu5
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 7 months ago

        I just know if I bench baines he will get a pk today.

        1. WipWapJaws
          • 10 Years

          Yup am having a cold sweat about that as well
