So, are you backing Robin van Persie in your Fantasy lineup? What about a rejuvenated Wayne Rooney? If you’re without United’s attacking assets and feeling a little anxious ahead of Sunday’s big derby then Paddy have a little something for you. They’re offering Fantasy Football Scout visitors enhanced odds of 7/1 on a United win in Sunday’s big game. United are out at 23/10 for mere mortals but our visitors who are yet to register a Paddy Power account can get hold of these special odds via this link.

If you’re an existing customer, you can still take advantage of Paddy’s generosity – they’re offering a money back special on Sunday’s clash – if United win the game, they’ll refund any losing First Goalscorer, Last Goalscorer, Correct Score and Scorecast singles on the match.

To be clear, bets on these enhanced odds are limited to a £10 stake and are open to new customers only.

A reminder that we posted Paddy’s clean sheet and goalscorer odds last night and, tomorrow morning, we’ll bring you some new markets based on this week’s Scout Picks.

Finally of course, we should state that all these offers are only available to those aged 18 and over and are subject to Paddy Power’s terms and conditions. Also, if you’re going to have a bet, always gamble responsibly.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Choose 3 defenders from these:
    Lescott (MUN), Collins (EVE), Coleman (whu), Chester (new), Murner (TOT)

    Cheers

    1. Dukes of Hazard
      • 12 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Ccc

    2. Dogba
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      In order, I'd play Coleman, Collins, Chester, Lescott, Murner. Not too many likely CS in there though :/

    3. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      first three

  2. LewanGOALski
    • 14 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    so now, do I sell Silva for Michu or Eriksen? Or play him vs ManU and save my FT ?

    1. colin1201
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      isnt silva supposed to be injured?

      1. LewanGOALski
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        just confirmed fit by Pellegrini

    2. Dogba
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      I'd play and save.

      1. LewanGOALski
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        thanks for the voice 🙂

        Michu is f**king tempting, but I think I am leaning towards saving for now...

        1. Dogba
          • 13 Years
          12 years, 6 months ago

          You can always get him after Arsenal game, fixtures are gooooood for a long time.

    3. Deulo10
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      I'd save

  3. colin1201
    • 14 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    Buy moses or michu to replace coutinho.
    i do not have sturridge

    1. Demel
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      See my dilemma below.

      1. Feanor
        • 16 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Go Mo'.

  4. jonnytaylor86

    Really struggling with Captain choice this week. My gut says Walcott but I also have Benteke and Sturridge messing with my head!!

    Thoughts?

  5. Demel
    • 14 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    a) Michu & Rooney
    b) Moses & Lambert

    Rest of the team

    Migs
    Walker - Zab - Mert (Collins - Chester)
    Silva - Walcott - Nolan - * - (Whittingham)
    Soldado - Giroud - *

    1. Demel
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Haha oops I mean...

      a) Michu & Lambert
      b) Moses & Rooney

  6. Judas
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    So many captain choices...what to do:

    HBA
    Giroud
    Walcott
    Benteke
    Soldado
    Hazard

    1. jonnytaylor86
      • 12 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Surely between Giroud, Benteke and Wally.

      1. Spike ⚽️
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Look deeper 😉

    • 13 Years

    Currently on WC..

    I can't decide between 4-3-3 and 3-4-3. Here are both teams:

    4-3-3

    Mig, 4.0
    Ivan, Zab, Vidic, Mert, (Chester)
    Michu, Walcott, Eriksen, (Wittingham, Jedinak)
    Giroud, Benteke, Sturridge

    3-4-4

    Mig, 4.0
    Vidic, Zab, Dawson (Gabbidon, Chester)
    Michu, Walcott, Eriksen, HBA, (Wittingham)
    Giroud, Benteke, Sturridge

    Please help! What's better?

    1. saata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      It's all about Dawson+ HBA or Ivan + Mert?

      1. Podge
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Ivan and Mert I reckon

    2. Saint & Reevesy
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Play 3-4-4 🙂

      1. saata
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Ooops 🙂

        So you think 3-4-3 is better?

  8. Dogba
    • 13 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    (Hopefully) last check on team. Done Nolan -> Moses, thinking I'll save one FT. Subs all good?

    Mig
    Terry Mert MTurner
    Michu Walcott (c) Moses Mirallas
    Giroud Soldado (vc) Benteke

    Marshall Collins Kim Brayford

    1FT, 1.3M in the bank. Plan is upgrade Brayford next week to Clyne/Fonte/Wilson.

    1. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      yep, you're all set.

      1. Dogba
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks. I think defense looks good this weekend, which means it'll probably crash and burn.

    2. saata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      I would play Collins over MTurner. Everton hadn't score a lot lately..

      1. Dogba
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        I've been back and forth on this a few times. Villa are in good form, but Everton are still a much better team overall. Norwich has a history of doing well at home, so going with MTurner. Odds back this up as well. Watching West Ham's last game vs SOT also helped make the decision easier.

  9. TheBabyfacedAssassin
    • 16 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    What most likely will happen w/liverpool when suarez is back? Moses out and sturridge on left wing?

    1. CABAYE4
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Sturridge will stay up top imo, Suarez either in the hole or on the left.

      Moses should be nailed on until Coutinho's back, not sure about after that.

    2. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      4-3-3: Moses Sturridge Suarez in my opinion

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Sturridge up top

      Moses left suarez behind sturridge and a right winger from sterling/aspas/hendo

    4. Dogba
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Tough to judge. I think they'll keep playing 4-2-3-1, Suarez in the hole, Moses left, Hendo/whoever on the right.

    5. J.Mata
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Untill Coutinho is back:

      Henderson - Gerrard - Lucas - Moses
      ----------------------Suarez--------------------
      ---------------------Sturridge------------------

      With Coutinho:

      ------------Gerrard--------Lucas-------------
      --Sturridge------Coutinho------Moses--
      ----------------------Suarez-------------------

  10. CABAYE4
    • 14 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    Cech (Boruc)
    Zabaleta Coleman Collins (Clyne Amorebieta)
    Walcott HBA Lamela Nolan (Jedinak)
    Giroud Sturridge Soldado

    Which transfer do you prefer for this week?

    A. Nolan to Moses
    B. Lamela to Michu
    C. Save it
    D. Other transfer

    1. LewanGOALski
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      C or if so - A

      1. CABAYE4

        Cheers

    2. bottle_of_smoke
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      marchall

      collins, cahil, ivan, zaba (3rdferdinand)

      ozil, walcott, whittingham (1st barkely, 2nd huddles )

      soldaddy, sturidge, dzeko

      next week im getting rid of cahil and dzeko for rooney and wilson. do you guys reckon wilson will keep his place in midfield over time though? im not so sure......

      captain is ozil at the min but ive a feeling, like q few of yous, that walcott will do the business this week

  11. WorldCupDanB
    • 14 Years

    Is it worth making the PlayOn thread on page 6 (I think) a hot topic, I have discussed this with PlayOn earlier this week and sent them a link to the thread so they can gauge peoples opinions. Just a thought, no worries if not.

    1. GreenWindmill
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Ah, go on then, I may remove the Hot Topic status once the next PlayOn article is published because I'm sure it will prompt the same discussions again though 😉

      1. GreenWindmill
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Timing! 😆

  12. Feanor
    • 16 Years
    12 years, 6 months ago

    My final WC team.

    Boruc (Lewis)
    Ivanovic, Enrique, Coleman (Burner, Wilson)
    Ozil, HBA, Moses Ramsey (Eriksen)
    Sturridge, Giroud (c), Benteke

    1. Venom Snake
      • 12 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Haven't you missed all the rises

    2. Professor Abel X
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      If you're gonna have Eriksen, you want to be playing him vs Cardiff surely. Otherwise whats the point?

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Cardiff are a very solid outfit at home.

    3. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      I think there is better options for an expensive defender than ivan, chelsea less than convincing at the moment and there are teams with much better fixtures...

    4. Magerost
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Eriksen benched?!

      • Hobo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        3 Arsenal too many, dump Ramsey for Barkley or Shelvey and play Eriksen

      • Number Eight
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Benching Eriksen just seems wrong.

        Downgrade a mid and upgrade keeper or bring in Rooney/Suarez?

        1. Feanor
          • 16 Years
          12 years, 6 months ago

          I have enough to do Sturridge to Rooney next week.

          I don't think benching or dumping Ramsey makes sense given his current form.

      • Link
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        I'd ditch Rambo for a cheaper bench fodder.

        Then get in Migs + Vidic for Boruc + Enrique

    5. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      alright lads, would appreciate thoughts on my WC team:

      Boruc / Davis

      Walker / Vidic / Enrique / Wilson / Shaw

      Eriksen / HBA / Moses / Walcott / Jedinak

      Rooney / Sturridge / Giroud

      Is clyne nailed on now? could save some cash with him instead of shaw if so...

      1. Professor Abel X
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        I think Clyne is nailed on

        1. Professor Abel X
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          12 years, 6 months ago

          I would almost be tempted to go Shaw to Clyne. And then downgrade Walker to Mert/Nastasic and have Migs in goal?

      2. Podge
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        I like it a lot

        1. Kuqi Monster
          • 15 Years
          12 years, 6 months ago

          cheers lads, think I will go with clyne instead of shaw...

      3. Dogba
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        That's a big defense! Looking at I can't understand how you can afford it, which is usually a good thing. Looks great. I think Clyne is nailed on and was only kept on the bench due to fitness concerns, he's a good RB and they don't really have any fixture congestion to force rest.

        1. Kuqi Monster
          • 15 Years
          12 years, 6 months ago

          cheers dogba, have had a dreadful start (currently around 1.1m OR) so needed something to stop the rot, lots in the team have a nice run of fixtures so hopefully will climb in the rankings from now!

    6. System builder
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      bench shaw this weekend? what do you think

      1. Texas Pete
        • 12 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Read that as Ben Shaw for a mo thne. Made me think of lemonade.

    7. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      May seem an odd question but totally relavent..put these three players in order of who is likely to get injured first...Benteke/Sturridge/Giroud...I'll go first

      1.Sturridge
      2.Giroud
      3.Benteke

      1. System builder
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        +1

      2. Well you know, Triffic
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Studge
        Gir = Benteke

      3. Efan Ekoku Pops
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        It is an odd question, though if history tells us anything, Daniel 'made of glass' Sturridge is the most injury prone of this lot.

        1. Dr Dream
          • 13 Years
          12 years, 6 months ago

          Exactly...I have him but i feel like i'm on borrowed time with him and that every game he plays is just something he does in between injuries..Time will tell..

      4. Link
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Absolutely impossible to know that....but if previous is anything to go by. Then your order looks right.

    8. Feed tha Sheep
      • 13 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Best option
      A. Ericsson
      B. HBA
      C. Lampard

      1. System builder
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        I think B followed by A and then C

      2. Kuqi Monster
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        A > B > C

    9. Link
      • 15 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Bloody Pellegrini and his vague comments...

      To hit or not to hit?

      Migs (rudd)

      Zaba - Kos - Turner (Clyne - Brayford)

      Michu - Hazard - Silva - Brady (Kim)

      Giroud - Studge - Soldado

      Silva and Brady doubts, so thinking Silva out for a hit might be the way to go...?

      1. Well you know, Triffic
        • 15 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        I'd keep Silva

      2. System builder
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        going for a hit.. not a good option in my opinion

    10. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Hawks 102-97 Cats - amazing game......right c'mon Freo, get to the GF..

      1. Venom Snake
        • 12 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        Freo are very defensive. Which will suit the swans because all the big goal scorers are missing

        1. Jafooli
          • 14 Years
          12 years, 6 months ago

          True but big chance this year, team have come of age......Pavlich deserves a flag

    11. applebonkers
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      well well well, we may get a third week of kolarov.

      team name idea: sakho bell

      1. Granville
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        That's got to be good news for United's wingers.

      2. Jafooli
        • 14 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        +3 & +2

    12. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…
      • 13 Years

      Do we think Mata will start this weekend?

      1. System builder
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        not sure about chelsea team on who will start and who will not.

      2. Professor Abel X
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        There is no point in even speculating. Who knows!

    13. GoonerByron
      • 14 Years
      12 years, 6 months ago

      Got a choice to make, need some help!

      I've either got to go with my team and if Toure doesn't play I'll only have 2 defenders / 10 players..

      OR

      Take hit to get either Clichy or Toure out, with enough cash to bring anyone in..

      What would you guys do?

      1. System builder
        • 13 Years
        12 years, 6 months ago

        i will prefer the first option. against the hit. be positive. think that toure will play.

      Regrading rvp. Fellaini. Brady to Rooney. Michu. Mosses for a 8 pt. Allowing me to get suarez next week for free. People seem very against it.

      Why?

      if I was to say it was for 1 hit people would probably say yes. And if I was to ask is it ok to take a hit next week for suarez people would also probably say yes so what's the difference in taking the hits this week instead? And gain from possible michu and mosses returns.

        eek, new post. Second time in a row that's happened. Anyway, seems like you have similar issues to me, so not sure my advice is valid, but -8 is a big hit for those changes. Other things might crop up that would mean Suarez would not come for free next week...

      The team in my head:

      Ming
      Nasty Coleman Collins
      Lampard Eriksen Wally Michu
      Rooney Giroud Benteke (c)

      4.0 JWP Burner Chester (0.7 in bank)

      This requires -4 hit for RVP > Rooney and Hernandez > Michu.

      Good idea? Or are there more pressing issues in my team?

      Mignolet[Boruc]

      Coleman, Coloccini, Ivanovic, Zabaleta [Collins]
      Ben Arfa, Nolan, Ozil [Fellaini,Ward-Prowse]
      Lukaku,Benteke,Giroud

      So rate my team and can give some sugestion about Captain? Ben Arfa? Ozil? Giroud?

      Maybe fellaini>Nola or Lukaku?

      TNX!
