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.

    *Foster - *Begovic .. [*Davis & Ruddy now]
    *Baines - Rangel - Jenkinson - Demel - Clyne .. [* Zabaleta now]
    Hazard - Cazorla - *Ben Arfa - Michu - *Guthrie .. [* Nolan & El Ahmadi now]
    RvP - Tevez - *Berbatov .. [* Torres now]

    I feel it's looking good as it well spread to cover many teams/players in form.

      Get Kaca out, get in maybe guthrie. The rest looks fine actually.

      Switch Ruddy to Begovic. Foster/Begovic rotation is immense. Kaca is a risk, switch to Guthrie.

      Personally I would change Gallas and Kac. Gallas because theres better options in that price range and kac isnt guaranteed game time now

      Have Kaca, will probably play today but I think will have limited opportunities going forward. Guthrie will play every week

      Gallas - ooo no, never trust the Spurs defence
      Guthrie better option than Kacanik.lic

      Davies and Demel/Cuellar
      Cuellar looks tempting though.

      I have an almost identical conundrum. Between Davies, Cuellar and Gorkss I am currently playing Davies and Cuellar.

    I don't see Kagawa being benched to start the game...what would be the point if he's fit? I think if he's able to play he'll start...Fergie won't want to dent his confidence. He'll use him to win the game and take him off at 60 minutes, I don't see why he'd send him on for the last 20...anyone agree?

      hmmm Giggs and Scholes are on milestones 599 and 699 so he might use that as an excuse
