Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 38

In our final head-to-head with Paddy, we’ve invested faith in Arsenal’s English speedster, Everton’s robust frontman and Stoke’s man of the moment.

Our first, and favourite, wager of the week has us backing Theo Walcott to net his third goal this campaign. Arsene Wenger looks set to slightly rotate ahead of the Gunners’ FA Cup final, which should afford the fleet-footed winger his first start since Gameweek 29. Considering the North London club has conceded just one goal in their last three home ties, Paddy’s 11/4 odds on Walcott to score and Arsenal to keep a clean sheet against West Brom tempted us to part with our first £4.

It’s been a lucklustre season for Romelu Lukaku, but the imposing Belgian has finally hit some form in recent weeks, notching two goals in three starts. No striker came close to mustering as many attempts on goal (nine) as Lukaku last Gameweek, which – coupled with the fact that Tottenham drew blanks in two of their previous three match-ups – encouraged us to take up Paddy’s 33/1 offer on Lukaku to score two or more goals and Everton to keep a clean sheet.

Charlie Adam – the target of our final bet this Sunday – has been a revelation of late, tallying four goals in seven starts. The Scottish midfielder ranks third over the last six Gameweeks in terms of attempted shots (35), behind Philippe Coutinho (30) and Alexis Sanchez (29). Considering Liverpool chalked up a solitary goal in their last three road matches, we’re liking Paddy’s 18/1 offer on Adam to score and Stoke to keep a clean sheet and handing over our remaining £3.

    Won my league by over 100 points. Nothin to play for really except rank and just out of top 5k.

    Thinkin Giroud to Costa and Caz to Bolasie for -4.

          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

        2. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
          • 12 Years

          Would think so

    GTG?

    Krul
    Terry - Schlupp - Vlaar
    Sanchez - Hazard - Silva - Ramsey - Mata
    Aguero (C) - Vardy

    Panti, Kane, Dawson, Alderweireld
    0FT

    leading by 50 points, rivals have silva...

    A. Haz, kane => mata/bolasie, lukaku (-4) for fun 🙂
    B Haz => silva

    Schmeichel (panti)
    Kos ivan hutton (skrtel cresswell)
    Ozil alexis hendo hazard (boyd)
    vardy aguero kane
    1 FT, 1.1

    1. Hurricane
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Don't think you need to worry about any player your rival has now. Just get the player you think will score the most.

  6. BennyDizzle
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Struggling with a decision and looking for help

    A) Defoe -> Ulloa
    B) Hazard -> Young
    C) Defoe, Hazard -> Ulloa, Young -4pt
    D) Defoe, Hazard -> Young, Costa -4pt
    D) Defoe, Hazard -> Young, Lukaku -4pt

    Can afford Mata instead of Young if that makes a difference.

    Thanks in advance and good luck 🙂 🙂

    3. Jafooli

      Only Wisdom confirmed out......

      1. Heels_Over_Head
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        I haven't had Wisdom all season to be honest.

      I thought someone said he was confirmed out . I think it was Dr Agabuse . Sorry lads

      1. Dr. Agabuse
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        BBC Team news said he is short to start but I guess we cant trust them

    5. AIRMILES
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      He's not fit enough to start, but will still get 30 mins. I'd fancy him to score against WHam.

      1. Hurricane
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Would you rather i bench Kane and play both Grealish and Albrighton?
        Thanks for the reply!

        1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          It's a tricky one but in those scenarios I always tend to favour the forward

          1. Hurricane
            • 10 Years

    2. Desperately Seeking Guzan
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Presume A and B are for hits?

      Got a sneaky feeling Kane will troll the sellers and score today*

      *I'm a naively optimistic spurs fan.

      1. Hurricane
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 days ago

        Yes, they are.
        What do you suggest i do with my FT?
        Thanks for the reply!

        1. Desperately Seeking Guzan
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          I'm going Caz to someone. Can you afford Mata or Walcott.

          1. Hurricane
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 2 days ago

            Yes, i have 9.3 if i sell Caz.

  11. A.T
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    I'm about 30 points behind the top 1k and 30 points in front of the top 5k. Should I gamble or protect my rank?

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      100 % yes.

      1. A.T
        • 13 Years

        Which one?

        Gamble, AT.

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

      I would gamble that is probably why I am not 30 points behind the top 1k and 30 points in front of the top 5k.

        1. jernej93
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 days ago

          don't go with Costa ... Benteke, Ulloa, Cisse, Lukaku over Costa IMO

  19. Torres76
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    How does this team look?

    Schemical,
    Terry, Waz, Vlaar
    Ramsey, Sanchez, Walcott, Yaya, Silva
    Aguero (c) Benteke,

    Panty, Vardy, PVA, Mcshane

    A few questions:
    1. Should I get in Kolorov?
    2. Should I get in Bolasie?
    3. Too much City and Arsenal?
    4. Should I play Vardy but for who?

    Cheers gang

  20. Dr. Agabuse
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    What do you guys think of Cisse?
    Will he start?
    50% i'd say

    1. Park the bus
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      If I wad manager then definitely but it's Carver...

  21. BennyDizzle
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Upfront:
    Aguero, Benteke and...

    Ulloa, Costa or Lukaku?

    1. Torres76
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Ulloa

  22. Revival
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    No Aguero so who best captain option from Sanchez, Hazard, Cazorla, Benteke and Kane?

    1. Wingate
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Tekkers home to relegated burnley

    2. Park the bus
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      No Aguero? I'd retire

  23. Smudger’s Dirty Dozen
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    A Kane, Cazorla,Hazard to Costa, Silva, Young for -4??
    or
    B Caz/Haz to Silva/Walcott??
    or
    C Boyd, Cazorla, Hazard to Walcott, Silva, Young for -4 (Bench Kane)

  24. Park the bus
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    This whole "Hull will go gung ho and leave spaces for United" logic is a bit silly. Bruce isn't daft, he'll know the quality MU have. If it gets to the last 10 mins then maybe but there's a good chance they score first and defend like beavers.

    1. Desperately Seeking Guzan
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Dam.

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      yep but fact is a t some point they gonna ghave to attack, given most matches no one has a clue how will pan out it is something to cling to

  25. Norco
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Start Hazard or Bolasie

    1. Alpine3000
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      haz and bolasie first off bench

  26. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Have we had any headphone theory on Hazard yet?

    1. Mr. Grv
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      yup if he wears the blue ones he blanks

  27. Tomeister
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    Do we reckon Costa will be on penalties if hazard doesn't play?

    1. Park the bus
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      Definitely

    2. Numb
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      As long as Drogba is not on the pitch yeah

  28. Snellejanus
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 days ago

    If you owned Hutton, would you...

    A) Not play him out of fear he'll only come on in the 80th minute and get 1 point (play Skrtel instead)
    B) Play him and hope he starts (or doesn't feature at all, in which case it doesn't matter and Skrtel will come on anyway)

    1. Mithrandir, the Grey Pilgri…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Play! I am too.

    The Dinnery reckons Hazard will make the bench.

    1. Park the bus
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      The guy is as knowledgeable as the rest of us though, it's only opinion with him, usually the wrong one...

  30. Venom Snake
    • 10 Years

    Is Vardy a sell?

    1. Give us a smile
      • 9 Years

      No.

    2. Desperately Seeking Guzan
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 days ago

      At home against the league's worst team. I'm keeping.
