We go up against Paddy with a tenner in hand once again and seek inspiration from the Scout Picks and Differentials in our attempt to bring home the cash.

We start at Loftus Road where QPR welcome Sunderland later this afternoon. Scout Pick Steven Caulker has already registered six attempts inside the box in just two appearances, and with Paddy prepared to offer 20/1 on a Caulker goal and QPR clean sheet, we’re willing to place our faith in his attacking instincts and shell out £3 for the Loftus Road encounter.

Next stop is the Etihad, where champions City take on Stoke. Having scored twice from the bench in recent matches, we’re going to stick our necks out and back Sergio Aguero to deliver yet again. The Argentine is pushing for a start against the Potters, and with Paddy offering 6/1 on Aguero to score two or more and City to chalk up a clean sheet, we’re making this our bet of the Gameweek, throwing £4 their way.

Our final £3 is kept for West Ham’s home match against Southampton. Summer signing Mauro Zarate grabbed a goal on his first start last weekend, and with Kevin Nolan injured, looks to have nailed down the role in “the hole” for Sam Allardyce’s side. Paddy are offering a massive 50/1 for the little Argentine to score two or more and for the hosts to keep a clean sheet – we fancy a punt on this one and part company with our final £3.

Register and Bet £10 And Get £20 Free

If you’re new to Paddy Power, you can take up any of these odds and get yourself a bonus. You can sign up on this site and get a free £20 when you register an account and bet a tenner.

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 bet, always gamble responsibly.

    Sooo, baring any injuries, are we expecting the Hull back line to be:

    ---------------McGregor--------------

    ---Dawson---Davies---Chester---

    And Bruce on the bench?

      It's quite sad that they'll never know how good they were for two weeks.

      And most likely not care anyway. 🙁

  5. WHY ALWAYS MESUT?
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Thinking of WC'ing over the international break (so basically - gonna do it once the games start today).

    Currently my team is:

    De Gea / Gilks
    NTaylor / Clyne / Coloccini / Wisdom / Chester
    Siggy / Silva / Fab / Mata / Eriksen
    Rooney / Costa / Zamora

    With 1.4m ITB.

    Would you WC at this point?

    Had a bunch of changes I was gonna make personally. Was gonna remove DDG/Gilks for Krul/Mannone. Replace Colo with Dummett. Replace Chester with someone. Upgrade Eriksen to Ramsey, probably do Costa -> Aguero and do something about Zamora (probably Vaz Te, Naismith if affordable).

    1. Coaly
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Yeah do it, keep JC though

      1. WHY ALWAYS MESUT?

      Doesnt matter who you have front if you cant defend/keep the ball

  9. Obi Wan Elokobi

    If Man United lose today I won't own a United player for the rest of the season. Feel free to sticky this.

    1. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…

      Lucky for you we are going to win 9-0 then (after taking our foot off the gas for the last 75 minutes)

      Nah. Nobody cares if you have United players or not

        Yeah I'm with you.

  11. FPL Daniel
    12 years, 2 months ago

    I am worried about United as a competitor. They bought too much. Now Blind too.. Hmmm... Anyone has a clue what kind of formation they play today? How Mata RVP Roonpig and ADM fitted ?

    1. Az
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      12 years, 2 months ago

      It's mental

      Quite excited though

    2. Dr. Rog
      12 years, 2 months ago

      they have done a sp*rs.

    3. Coaly
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Mata doesn't fit in any formation with wingers and two strikers in his favoured position, except a very narrow 5-2-1-2 which is weak with their current squad

    4. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…
      12 years, 2 months ago

      We've barely actually spent anything

      1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…

        .?? 146 million

      2. jdoyle

        British. Transfer record

      3. Lanley Staurel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 2 months ago

        😯 Buying mediocrity again 😉

    5. Heydudes13
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Shut up Steve.

    6. RabMac
      12 years, 2 months ago

      I reckon he is playing the same formation as he still has Young and Valencia in the team.

    7. andyinasia
      12 years, 2 months ago

      I think Van Gaal's 3-4-1-2 system is a mistake - the English lads at the back haven't got the intelligence to use the space and time required effectively. However i think it will take a few more games for Van Gaal to reevaluate and switch to a 443/433. At that point Mata and/or Rooney will find himself out of position and unhappy.

    8. Simon69
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Every team competing for the leagur has a quality squad and not just players. We're weak defensively and Blind can play LB,CB and DM. Nothing worrying. Especially if we're sellinh more players

  12. FPL Daniel
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Please vote vote early, vote often Hazard or Costa

          Good luck to us...

          1. RabMac
            12 years, 2 months ago

            I am optimistic as he has not been playing badly and was just unlucky last week. Add to that the terrible Liverpool defence, home fixture and Liverpool injuries, it means it could be a good one for us.

  14. MARVELLUS
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Had a very vivid dream about football, so brace yourselves for all this to happen:

    Man U win 2-0, Evans and Mata score (Mata gets sent off....before he scores)
    Man C win 1-0, Jovetic flicks it in after Milner (!) Hits the bar. Dzeko does not play.
    Chelsea 0-0 up to 65 mins, Drogba starts.

    Not good for a Dzeko and Costa owner!

    1. Coaly
      12 years, 2 months ago

      How does Mata score 'after' being sent off!?

      1. Wilshere Knowledge
        12 years, 2 months ago

        😆

      2. MARVELLUS
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Er, it was a dream. But I read the scores rather than watch the game.
        I need to get out more...

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Take your medication.

    3. Fifa las vegas
      12 years, 2 months ago

      😯

      That was a detailed dream! But I'm struggling to see how mata will score after being sent off 😕

  15. Mindless Freak
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Woke up at 7 thinking deadline had passed, then 9 then 10 and thought i would sleep for another hour and wake up at 11 to sort everything out. However next time i woke up, the deadline had passed. Captain Fabregas it is then, hopefully Rooney, Jovetic, Siggurdson don't get any more than an assist.

    1. Lanley Staurel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 2 months ago

      You need children....or an alarm clock.

    2. Coaly
      12 years, 2 months ago

      I also woke up at 7 and thought no worries plenty of time to consider changing Jov (c) back to Ramsey, next thing I know it's 11.40

  16. Kew Pee Arr
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Utd back 3 of Evans, Blackett. Jones with only fletcher in DM/cm. Weaker than wet tissue paper.

    Burnley will run riot.

  17. Heydudes13
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Eric Dier top scorer this GW. Herd it here thirst.

  18. Syd.
    12 years, 2 months ago

    Dzeko (C)

    Risky but worth it

    1. Gigging Order

      You keep telling yourself that 😉

  23. Billy Gilmore

    Krul or DDG in UFPL?

    1. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 2 months ago

      DDG

      1. Arvin-ation
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Can't you swap DDG out for Krul if he doesn't perform? No? Don't play UFPL, so wouldn't know.

        1. Tommytour
          12 years, 2 months ago

          Only for someone tomo

        2. Billy Gilmore
          12 years, 2 months ago

          No as both play today. If they fail I'll have Guzan for tomorrow.

          1. Tommytour
            12 years, 2 months ago

            That your rotation for the season?

            1. Billy Gilmore
              12 years, 2 months ago

              For half the season, yeah

    2. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Gone Krul,have Guzan back up

      1. Billy Gilmore
        12 years, 2 months ago

        I take it you're not taking advice from me anymore? 😛

        Chester shat on my plans last week 🙁

    3. Tommytour
      12 years, 2 months ago

      Gone DDG but I'm a Utd fan 🙂

      1. Tommytour
        12 years, 2 months ago

        Keeping that rotation?

        1. Billy Gilmore
          12 years, 2 months ago

          Absolutely.

          1. Tommytour
            12 years, 2 months ago

            Downgrading Mignolet to a 4.5 m have DDG Krul

            1. Damo.
              12 years, 2 months ago

              Do you need another one though? Pretty sure those 2 rotate Sat/Sun a fair bit.

              1. Billy Gilmore
                12 years, 2 months ago

                It's worth the extra 0.5 I reckon, especially if one of your other 2 get injured/blank GWs

                1. Damo.
                  12 years, 2 months ago

                  Yeah it's a tough one alright. I don't think the extra .5 is needed as much as it is in FPL either.

            2. Billy Gilmore
              12 years, 2 months ago

              Guzan is brilliant. Gets lots of recovery points too.

    2. Reedy
