Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 36

In our quest to outsmart Paddy this Gameweek, we’ve looked to Aston Villa’s red-hot frontman, Manchester City’s twinkle-toed playmaker and the Potters’ long-range specialist.

Our first bet of the weekend has us backing Christian Benteke to perpetuate his astonishing scoring streak. The Belgian hitman recorded ten goals in his last eight starts, bagging a brace last time out against Everton. Ally this with the fact that Villa’s opponents this week, West Ham United, have netted just four goals in the last eight Gameweeks, and Paddy’s 11/1 offer on Benteke to score two or more goals and Villa to keep a clean sheet looks worthy of a £3 investment.

Having drawn blanks in his previous five outings, David Silva is in the midst of a quiet patch on the goal front, yet a home tie against strugglers Queens Park Rangers serves as the perfect catalyst. The R’s have tallied one shut out in their last 10 and failed to score in two of their last three, encouraging us to take up Paddy’s 13/5 odds on Silva to score and City to keep a clean sheet. Indeed, we make this our bet of the week and part with a further £4.

Our final wager in this round of fixtures centres around Stoke City’s Charlie Adam as he gears up for Tottenham Hotspur’s visit on Saturday. The Scottish midfielder has been in prolific form of late, notching three goals in five starts. Meanwhile, the Lilyhwhites have not troubled the scoresheet in four of the past seven Gameweeks, giving us ample reason to capitalise on Paddy’s 12/1 offer for Adam to score and Stoke to keep a clean sheet, handing over our final £3.

    1. Mickeylicious
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Hendo or cambi. Coin toss incoming 🙂

  10. _Ninja_

  11. Benteke10

    Ozil or Ramsey?

    1. Chuckie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Think it has to be Ozil if you don't already have the Ram.

      1. Benteke10
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Thank you 🙂

    2. mozza

      Ozil if you have to make the move this week. Ramsey if you can wait till next

    RP:

    Thoughts on my transfers?

    Courtois(Myhill)
    Terry Schlupp Moreno (PVA, Baird)
    Coutinho Hazard Mata Silva
    Aguero Vardy Giroud

    Courtois + Moreno + Coutinho—-> Adrian + Kolarov + Cazorla

    Just ditching Terry—>Kolarov and then Cout–>Caz could work, but Terry looks set to play the full season, whilst Courtois does not.

    Any other suggestions are more than welcome.

    Cheers

    1. Chuckie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Looks ok, assuming Adrian will live on your bench.

    2. Jigger & Pony
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Get a cheaper keeper

  13. Ten Season Wonder
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Caz and Larson/Gomez
    Or
    Ozil and £4.9m mid???

    1. Chuckie

    Chasing 19 points. Sanchez cap the way to go?

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

      19 pts is not much, only capt him if you think he'll get more points than Kun.

  15. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Is there any major reason for giroud's loss in form?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Burnley away, the whole team struggled. We got our goal from a melee in the box.
      Chelsea self explanatory.
      Hull 3 CB's.

      He is still as good an option as he ever was.

    2. making up the numbers
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      He's playing well, but not converting,
      Look at his stats

      1. The Machine
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Stats dont tell us how well he is playing. Hes been shite the last 3 games and i have watched all those games

        1. The Machine
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Besides, a striker has to be converting to be playing well

          1. making up the numbers
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 1 month ago

            Shots on goal, matter, thus stats counts,
            A goalkeeper having a good game does not make a striker bad.

    3. The Machine
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Form is temporary class os permanent

      His good form was just temporary then

    4. QPR expects... glory!
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Donkey's are in season in March and then a couple of times a year thereafter 😀

  16. Jigger & Pony
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Play Coutinho or Bolasie?

    1. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Both...if forced coutinho

      1. Patch
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Any reason?

      2. Jigger & Pony
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers. Only other benchable player is Vardy (others being Haz, Sanchez, Silva, Kun, Giroud).

    2. Patch
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      This is my dilemma also. I'm leaning towards Bolasie based on fixture, but it's looking like a coin toss.

      1. Jigger & Pony
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Yes difficult one. I am leaning towards Coutinho as I feel Liv will be more hungry for a result.

        1. Patch
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah. And form is more important than fixture for mids and attackers. I may go that way myself.

  17. Zombie
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Yo Mods, shouldn't it be "Lilywhites" in the 4th paragraph?

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

    Play Skrtel, Duff or PvA?

    1. Chuckie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Skrtel

    2. QPR expects... glory!
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Rock? Hard place?

      Go with Sktel. Most likely to get a goal

    3. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I have Moreno and Duff, and I'm playing Duff.

  19. Brian (Not the Messiah)
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Start

    a) Terry or
    b) Alderweireld?

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

      A.

    2. Hy liverpool
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      A

    3. QPR expects... glory!
      • 13 Years

      A

    4. John Nerdelbaum

      a

    5. Brian (Not the Messiah)
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      thanks guys. I thought that too... Chelsea parks where they like.

    6. making up the numbers
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Easy A

  20. QPR expects... glory!
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Reasons to buy Ozil. One, two, three

    1. My eyes, members stats and BPS show he's a consistently better performer in the Arsenal midfield than Cazorla or Ramsey without getting the reward

    2. My gut says he's due a goal or assist or both!

    3. No injuries or rotation worries

    P.S. I have enough money to buy Ramsey next week to add to Sanchez and Ozil 😀

    1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      has he been shooting more? never seems keen to have a pop at goal

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

      Rather a pointless post considering your Post Script!

    1. Chuckie

    Hi lads

    Has anyone got Aaron Lennon in their midfield?

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

      Probably only a handful. He won't play GW 38

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Not many. He's ineligible for the game against Spurs remember.
