Stephane Sessegnon produced again in Wednesday’s thrashing of Norwich, just as he did against Swansea in Gameweek 22. It was the goal and an assist returns from that that game that came in for us at 5/1 last time out, fuelling our efforts for this week’s Fantasy Flutter.

Sergio Aguero was amongst the City side frustrated by the Goodison rearguard on Tuesday, but we perhaps shouldn’t read too much into another blank from the Argentinian. As a rule, Aguero saves his goals for home matches and with three in four Gameweeks to come, Fantasy managers are preparing for increased profits. Those could start flowing against Fulham this weekend. Paddy post a confident yet short 4/5 on Aguero to score and City to win against Martin Jol’s side, however, 21/10 on a brace for £5 offers just a little more reward for our risk.

Robert Huth was a monster last season, converting six goals, a tally which made him a hot Fantasy property and led to a significant price rise going into this term. Huth has found it difficult to live up to that reputation, however, with goals hard to come by, despite posing a significant threat in recent weeks. Paddy are offering 14/1 on the big German to deliver a goal and Stoke to keep Sunderland out at the Britannia – that’s worth a cheeky quid of our money.

Victor Moses was squeezed out of the Scout Picks this week, but, as today’s Watchlist article reveals, the fixture list offers hope that the Latics man will start to turn his potential into points over the next few weeks. Despite Everton holding firm against Roberto Mancini’s league leaders at bay in midweek, the Latics are fighting for survival and with Hugo Rodallega set to return to offer a sharper cutting edge, Moses and Wigan could be good for a goal or two. Paddy aren’t so sure and have been generous here, offering 8/1 on a Moses goal and Wigan to win, with a Moses goal and assist double at 18/1. As the anytime odds for Moses are rarely better than 7/2 across the board, 8/1 for £2 is a no brainer.

Our triple treat – the “who’s score the most goals” special is back on the menu this week with the Scout Picks forward line – Robin Van Persie, Aguero and Demba Ba all vying for our cash. Rather than a quick quip or analytical snippet as per usual, Demba Ba’s return to Newcastle’s line-up and a price of 11/2 requires little justification. Our last two quid is in the hands of the returning Magpies hat-trick hero.

Money Back Special

Paddy have focused on the two big encounters for their Money Back Specials this week. Down at Stamford Bridge, if a penalty is scored in the match between Chelsea and United, Paddy Power will refund all losing first/last goalscorer, correct score and scorecast singles. Over at Anfield meanwhile, if Gareth Bale scores anytime for Spurs, Paddy will again refund all losing first/last goalscorer, correct score and scorecast single on the game.

        Stupidly drafted him in hoping for a quick hit against Wigan, He seems to up his game against the top sides and there would seem to a big onus on him to deliver this weekend. But if he's injured then I must get rid immediately. I hate Adebayor to be fair

        That's tempting. MON has got the best out of the Sunderland defence so far, but Brown is out again so I feel they might concede.
        Given that Dempsey is in great form at the moment, and OOP then he seems the better bet to score points, even though he's playing against two of my defenders.
        Rumours going around that Kompany might not make it, so O'shea comes on if he doesn't and that mitigates the risk a tad.

          Sunderland kept 2 clean sheets in a row when Brown wasn't involved. Never thought it was about individuals under MON but collective work rather. Coollbacl played as LB against Citeh and they managed to win and keep a cleanie. Stoke is a tough place to go though. You'd fancy Pulis' side to score at home nevermind who they are up against. Dempsey is on a great form and he'd be the man if Fulham were to score at Citeh. Tough call really.

            aye, thats a fair interpretation. FA cup would be the target to rest him i would imagine. He may take him off today after 60 minute if they are 2-0 or something. But I would assume he's playing a part in at least one goal if that were to occur.

        Cheers for your reply, but if I get Richards then I can only afford a 6.0mil striker. I was thinking maybe Ba and Evans? There doesn't seem to be many decent defenders to choose from under 5.8 mil.

            Or Taiwo and Zamora if you believe in Hughes and like QPR's fixtures.

              I do like their fixtures (hence taking a chance on Helguson initially)! Clichy and Zamora is extremely tempting, I'd just have to hack the odd non-appearance by Clichy. After all, Richards has had just as many. Cheers again for your follow up.

                For the record, I've opted to just bring in Zamora for now and leave Dawson in for another week since he's not going to go down in price any time soon. This way I can monitor the Gary Cahill situation further before jumping the gun lm Clichy. Just hope Wilkinson plays!

        When we were discussing my WC team then you never expressed any concerns about keeping him until this week.

    Wenger talked about resting RVP over Christmas, chickened out. He may well chicken out again. But there's only so many times he'll talk about it before it happens.

    How are you coping with it?

    Do you think if RVP doesn't start he may sub on? Or the reverse, be subbed off early after starting?

    Would you risk RVP(C) 2ndpreference (vc) or swap them round?
