We target a trio of players with plum home matches on their agendas this weekend in our attempt to get the better of Paddy.

Our first stop is at Selhurst Park as Neil Warnock prepares for the first home match of his second stint at the helm. Having grabbed a late equaliser off the bench in the last Gameweek, Wilfried Zaha looks poised for a start as Palace entertain promoted Burnley, and with Paddy offering 8/1 on Zaha to score and the hosts to keep a clean sheet, we’re willing to throw £3 their way.

Next up we head to St Mary’s, where Ronald Koeman’s side go in search of their first home win of the season. The Saints’ 3-1 victory at West Ham in the previous Gameweek certainly suggests they are finding their form, and with a goal in each of his last two in all competitions, Graziano Pelle has caught the eye. Paddy are offering 16/1 on Pelle to score two or more against Newcastle and the Saints to chalk up a second clean sheet in succession in front of their own supporters – we fancy a punt on this one and shell out another £3.

We leave our final £4 for Liverpool’s Anfield clash with Villa. The absence of Daniel Sturridge will be sorely felt by the Merseysiders and instantly hands Mario Balotelli the chance to shine in front of his own supporters – with Paddy willing to offer 6/1 on Balotelli to score two or more goals and Brendan Rodgers’ side to bag a clean sheet, we place our faith in the Italian and make this our bet of the week.

    My new WC team, opinions please lads?

    Krul

    Wilson Clyne Terry

    Sterling Puncheon Ramsey Mirallas

    Costa Falcao Diouf

    Mannone/Lovren/Siggy/Wisdom

    Opinions appreciated.

    1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      NOT Terry - Ivanovic.
      Naismith for Diouf, perhaps.
      Don't bench Sigurdsson, bench Puncheon.

      1. Jax
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        bench puncheon for a home game? nah

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 6 months ago

          Yes. Sigurdsson more likely to score points, imo.

          1. WestHam14
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 6 months ago

            I am going to play Puncheon ahead of siggy I have a good feeling about him, Ivanovic I'm tempted by but for 0.7M extra it makes my team costly at the back, and I feel Diouf is a decent differential shout who has relatively decent fixtures?

          2. Jax
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 6 months ago

            v chelsea away no chance mate.

    2. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Don't like Punch, Mirallas, Diouf, Krul...sorry. But that's just my taste.

    3. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      falcao won't start.

      1. GoldenDonkey
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        I personally rate Wilson as a long term risk, Huth is a strong, tough and dominating defender, even if he does have wandering elbows.

  2. Mithrandir, the Grey Pilgri…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Just switched Captain Costa to Sterling....

    Wise or stupid?

    1. tw
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      could be either

    2. Hiphopopotamus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Wise. If Costa doesn't start...

      I considered the same - but have ADM (C) instead.

    3. Demelbrush
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      good play.

    4. Boz
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Nobody knows...

  3. gtf
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    I had a dream a while ago that QPR beat Man Utd 1-0. Now the fixture is upon us a feel obliged to place a bet on this outcome.

    Or would that just be throwing money away? Should I stick to an accumulator?

    1. You've got red on you.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      As a United fan...I say there are riskier bets. Why not.

    2. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      man u 2-0.

    3. Adro3
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Haha go for it, follow your instinct

    4. Mid-Table Obscurity
      • 14 Years

      qpr are shite, dont bother

      1. GoldenDonkey
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Put a small amount on at a site where you can lay off if they actually do go 1-0 up.

  5. galway77
    • 11 Years

    News filtering through Costa will b on the bench, Sterling won't start due to champions league midweek and Falcao, Rojo, ADM, and Blind all start

    1. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

    2. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Obvious United fan is obvious

    3. mdm
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Mata on the bench then?

    4. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      costa sterling will start, falcao won't.

  6. HurriKane

        I don't think Arsenal will get any joy this afternoon and I don't rate Arsenal's fix as much as other teams.

  8. mbrucie

    Ok, I think this is what it all comes down to:

    W) Sanchez and Costa

    Or

    Z) Hazard and Falcao

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      W

  13. MJ6987

    Best captain?

    Rooney or Costa?

    1. teddy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Costa

    2. Chris_White
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Costa out of the two

    3. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      De Gea.

    4. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years

      i am sticking with rooney... utd can't continue to be this shite, can they???

      1. Winston.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        They can, but they probably won't with all those new signings...

    5. mouldy_uk
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I'm going Rooney, he's due a return and playing a poor team at home. Costa is an injury doubt and playing a team in form. I could be wrong though 🙂

    6. JPeg
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Rooney will play deeper imo.

  14. tw

    Doos - why bench chelsea mids?

    1. JK - Cønt â­
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      trying to break his own record

      1. tw
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        what record is that?

        also who are you captaining this week?

        1. Declan-
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 6 months ago

          Record of 43 or so points on the bench

        2. JK - Cønt â­
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 6 months ago

          Most points on the bench, in the 40s

          Rooney

          1. tw
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 6 months ago

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

              Flipped a 3-sided coin

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      TW? Look at this:

      http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/1373/

      Moreover, Fabregas and Hazard will cannibalise each others points, imo.

  15. colin1201
    • 14 Years

    play siggy or mata?
    already playing rooney

    1. ImTheDude

      Siggy, never bench siggy.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Hope so!

    3. Brian (Not the Messiah)
      • 16 Years

      Actually think Eriksen is going to pop out the woodwork

      1. Jax
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        eriksen all the way

  17. Demelbrush
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    play one: Duff, PVA, Colo

    1. teddy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      PVA

  18. joinho
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Begovic or Mignolet?

    1. Chris_White
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Begovic

    2. teddy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Both good shouts. Leicester have looked pretty dangerous though, so I'd say Mignolet.

  19. GreennRed
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Any chance that The Welsh Jesus gets gametime v City?

    1. teddy.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years

      Every chance, I'd say

    2. Jax

      who knows

    3. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I believe so...

  20. Brian (Not the Messiah)
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    So, my wildcard team has 10 players different from the team before! Seems reasonable!

    1. joinho
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Me too planned not to make too many changes but just got carried away

    2. Jax
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      bet ya your previous players will do better than your new team this week. always happens.

      1. Brian (Not the Messiah)
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        It's not just about this GW though...

          • 16 Years

          yeah just making a point. using wc so early is stupid.

    1. â­ Bemba_Da â­

  22. OptimusBlack
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Would sell A palyers to get B Players ?

    A- Terry / PVA / Caulker - Mareny - Rooney / Dzeko
    B- Ivano / Lovren / Clyine - Zaha - Balo / Naismith

    I mean active my WC to get B players ???

  23. Jacketts Potatoes

    How do...

    Please rate the WC team, I'm just not enjoying this WC at all

    Krul (guzan)
    Ivan clyne Dier (Hutton wisdom)
    Rambo fab raheem Siggy (dyer)
    Costa balo Naismith

  24. JK - Cønt â­
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Right think I'm set

    DDG

    JT, Moore, Clyne

    Siggy, Hazard, Sterling, Ramsey

    Costa, Naismith, Rooney (c)

    Gilks, Caulker, Marney, Naylor

    1. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Looks good to me.

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Good luck, JK! 🙂

    3. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I would play Caulker ahead of Moore, but looks strong!

  25. gers23
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Benching Erikson over Siggy correct? Also thoughts on Rooney captain?

    1. Winston.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I'm not gonna bench Siggy, unless injured. Rooney might be a good captain pick, but I cannot choose him...last game was such a mess...but I might be wrong in this.

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Yes. No.

  26. Puyol Self Together
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Jordi Amat vs Neil Taylor?

    Are they both nailed on for Swansea? Looking for a Hutton replacement!

    1. JK - Cønt â­
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Naylor nailed, Amat not

      Amat isnt. Swansea signed another cb

      go taylor

    Current front 3 of

    Rooney Jovetic Fletcher

    Jovetic > balotelli or Costa or another?

    1. Lawrø
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Balotelli IMO

      1. Lawrø
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        As long as you captain him and make room for Costa in the coming weeks.

        1. GoldenDonkey
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 6 months ago

          Can you take -4 and turn Fletcher into Naismith? I think that would improve the long term health of your team if you have gone for an expensive midfield.
