We’re feeling flush this weekend after Adam Lallana and the Southampton defence helped us get one over Paddy last time around. We turn to the Scout Picks for inspiration, where Arsenal, City and Chelsea all supply us with a player apiece as we look to end the Gameweek in profit.

Our first stop is at the Emirates, where Arsenal prepare for the visit of struggling Fulham tomorrow afternoon. With Paddy offering 3/1 on Mesut Ozil to score and Arsenal to keep a clean sheet, we’re lumping £3 on this one – the Gunners have conceded once in their last six at home, whilst the German has netted in two of the last three in front of his own supporters.

Next up, we stop by the Etihad for City’s home clash with Cardiff. This time around Paddy is offering 9/2 on Alvaro Negredo to score two or more goals and the hosts to keep a clean sheet – a scenario that happened as recently as Wednesday evening. We make this our bet of the week and throw £4 Paddy’s way for this one, with the Bluebirds looking there for the taking.

Our final few quid is saved for Sunday afternoon’s Stamford Bridge showdown between Chelsea and United. Paddy are again in very generous mood and offer 15/2 on Eden Hazard to score and Jose Mourinho’s side to keep a clean sheet – the Belgian has notched in three of the last four, whilst his defensive team-mates have conceded once in the last five league matches. We empty our wallet of the remaining £3 and back the Belgian to add to David Moyes’ woes.

      Keep Navas out. He's a victim of tactic.Sometimes he's playing 90 minuters, sometime he's on the bench.You'll loose points there, you better keep the Gerrard. Btw, If you really want MC player, you better take forward (Negredo or Aguero are my picks)

    Silva hazard Ozil gnaby
    Suarez sturridge negredo

    Ki, Chester ward. Will do Ozil to Rambo and negredo to aguero next week.

    Would really appreciate feedback here lads. Was thinking giroud to sturridge but would have to take an arsenal player away because I already have 3.

      I'm no fan of the SAS (but that's me) so I would look a elsewhere, Giroud, Lukaka etc.

      Not convinced on Gnarby game time.

      Downgrade mert to Kos, downgrade Kompany to another defender then make look at getting in Lallana or someone similar in mf.

    If wilcard, would you go for...

    Navas (0,5 in the bank) or Lallana (1,2 in the bank)?

        I dunno he could go Navas today and swap out to Lallana in a few , I'd chase this weeks points tbh.

      Nice !

      You must have a good team value ?

      If you down grade mert to Kos, does that allow an upgrade I'm mf ?

      Eg. Ramsey (when fit) for Cabaye.

        Thanks Evs. Think I've got TV of about 110. Cabaye will become Ramsey once fit

      Good team. Personally I don't like non playing keepers. For same price I think you can get Mannone & Adrian. Sun & Wham rotate nicely for rest of season.

    Can you please help me check so I haven't missed anything here. This is my WC team. Been chopping and changing all damn week, really looking forward to get this over with...

    Boruc / Mannone
    Coleman / kolarov / clyne / bardsley / hudson
    Haz / özil / cabaye / silva / kim
    Aguero / suarez / sturridge

    Pretty template, I know. 0,3 itb. Kim will never play and cabaye becomes rambo the very second he is fit.

    Can I get away with no arse defender? I ran a comparison and kolarov eats merte for lunch. I ccould switch to a 4 defender formation and fit one in.

      Tricky one that as ars have been ranking up the clean sheets

      Stick with kolarov and if he fails to deliver you can always switch to Kos
