We’ve been able to put our feet up and enjoy a few cold tinnies and give our wallet an international reprieve, through a second successful Flutter Gameweek in a row. Once again tripling our stake, Kevin Nolan’s early poach helped secure the full three points and a cleanie over a Fulham side clearly shell-shocked by the exit of Mousa Dembele and Clint Dempsey. Our season’s profit now sits at £43 and we’re looking to improve on that with this week’s Fantasy Flutter.

To win 3-0 after defeat of the same scoreline to Swansea in the week previous, certainly showed a resilience that had been lacking in the Hammers dressing room when sliding into the Championship a couple of seasons ago. Paddy wish to test this new mettle by offering us a tempting price for Scout Pick Robert Snodgrass to net and Norwich to keep a clean-sheet against Sam Allardyce’s side in the early Saturday kickoff. The bookie is offering an 8/1 is the price for this market, and considering Paddy are offering the same odds on him to score first, the price seems decent for this home double. We’re going to throw £2 their way on this.

James McClean only warmed the bench in the Republic of Ireland qualifier win over Kazakhstan, but got a run out in the decisive friendly win over Oman on Tuesday. He’ll be well rested and ready to prove himself to both club and country in Sunderland’s fixture against Liverpool at the weekend. Paddy price up a McClean goal and a Sunderland cleanie at 14/1, and with Liverpool floundering at the moment, this could be the some of the best value you’ll get this season. We’re punting £3 for another big return.

Next up under the Flutter focus is Arsenal’s new signing Santi Carzorla. His pace and agility both on and off the ball have torn defences apart in their opening fixtures, although the Gunners have only managed to capitalise in the win at Anfield last time out. Paddy offer a respectable 7/2 for a Cazorla goal and a fourth successive Gunners clean sheet. It’s got a good chance of getting over the line, as is reflected in the short odds, so we’ll steam in for £4 to make the return a little more appealing.

Our final punt of the week is on Everton’s Steven Pienaar. With two solid wins under their belt, The Toffees went into their game against West Brom with confidence, but some rash mid-fielding and limp marking at the back, the Baggies came away with the points. Pienaar by his own admission, had his worst game in an Everton shirt but has been outstanding in previous outings. With that in mind we put our last £1 on him to score against Newcastle and Everton to get a clean-sheet at 9/1.

      He will play, it may just be coming off the bench in which case we are screwed unless he scores.

      Tempted to go with Cazorla instead.

      For you, Tevez simply as he is on form.

            This is what I'm going with after my WC

            Jussi (Foster)
            Verm, McAuley, Rafael, (Reid, Demel)
            Hazard, Michu, Cazorla, Guthrie, (Karacan)
            RVP, Tevez, Jellyman

            Still troubled by my GK but only for this week.
            Thanks for all your help and good luck.
            Over and out!

              Begovic for Jaaskelainen. Chancey having Foster and McCauley. Same with Reid and Demel. Maybe Reid to a Reading Cheap and downgrade McCauley to Cuellar.

                Ta, but don't want Begovic.
                Reid and McAuley will be moved on once they rise another 0.1.
                Was thinking Cuellar and Harte/Gorks

              Why GK? The troubling part is your garbage midfield...

                ha ha! Karacan is only temporary. Jellyman will go eventually

            Complete shot in the dark with my midfield

            Pienaar, Michu, (Robson-Kanu)

            Shall i swap either - Kag for Cazorla or Allen For Morrison?

              Morrison for Allen. Allen is quality but prob not a FF points machine.

              That defense is shockingly bad

                Ok, so how would you start to improve it with 0.5m to spend initially?

                  You need more than 0.5 to improve that
