Our quest to get the better of Paddy sees us turn to a couple of in-form budget Fantasy forwards, whilst Chelsea’s former Gunners skipper also comes into consideration as the two go head-to-head at the Bridge on Sunday afternoon.

Leicester’s home encounter with Burnley brings Leonardo Ulloa onto our radar. The Argentine has netted in every match in front of his own supporters in the league, and with Paddy willing to offer 16/1 on Ulloa to score two or more and the Foxes to keep out their opponents, we’re willing to fork out £3, bearing in mind that Burnley have failed to score in the last five Gameweeks.

Next up is Upton Park, where the Hammers’ Diafra Sakho is looking to score for the fifth successive match in all competitions. Paddy are offering 25/1 for the Senegal star to score two or more and West Ham to register a clean sheet – with the R’s scoring just once in three road trips, we shell out £3 for the Sunday afternoon encounter.

Our bet of the week is kept for Stamford Bridge, where league leaders Chelsea play host to Arsenal. Paddy are offering 7/1 on Cesc Fabregas to score and the Blues to register a clean sheet – we reckon the Spaniard could follow the recent exploits of Frank Lampard and come back to haunt his former club ,so hand over our remaining £4.

  1. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Absolute nightmare choosing a captain from this lot:

    ADM / Silva / Sterling / Siggy
    Costa / Falcao / Welbeck

    Had it on Sterling at first, changed to Silva, now on Costa purely to play it safe but not 100% sure... any thoughts would be appreciated!

    1. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I would go Falcao (he's due) v worst defence in the Premier league.

      1. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        Tempting actually, plus he didn't play in midweek unlike Costa, Silva, and Sterling.

        1. Evs
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 6 months ago

          He's bound to score soon, and with mata playing I think United will be more creative.

          Go for it fella 🙂

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

      Falcao from that lot

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

    Probably already been answered but, should I captain Aguero or Costa?

    1. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Aguero

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

      This is my reply from the last person who asked that question:

      I'd say Costa,

      Due to his form being ridiculous and the high ownership its criminal not to captain him, plus out of the past 15 games against top 4 arsenal have only won once!

      But Aston villa are a bit leaky right now so I'd say aguero would probably get a goal but really depends who's safer though and that's Costa 🙂

  3. SamH123
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Is this budget defence fairly secure?
    Wisdom Clyne Duff Wilson Chambers

    I know maybe only Clyne is 'nailed' but I don't think I'm taking too much of a risk here? RMT seems a bit more sceptical about these defenders...

    1. Bastien
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      looks good. didn't check if they rotate properly tho, to give you 3 decent options every week

    2. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Wisdom could lose his place to Gamboa if he plays well today while Wisdom is ineligable
      Clyne is nailed on
      Duff is more or less nailed on as well, but after the West Brom game I'm not too taken on Burnley's defence
      Wilson is nailed for the short term future, but it could only take one error to restore Huth
      Chambers is nailed on until Debuchy returns around Christmas time

      1. SamH123
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 6 months ago

        thanks very much

    Anyone captaining RVP?

    1. NIGHTHIKER - I Kane, I Shaw…
      • 11 Years

      Hardly anyone owns him due to price...

  5. rozzo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 6 months ago

    Sorry guys but before I confirm my wildcard which team is better do you think?

    A

    Mannone Gilks
    Clyne Naylor Bertrand Hutton Wisdom
    Di Maria Sterling Fabregas Siggy Boyd
    Costa Aguero Pelle

    B

    Mannone Gilks
    Clyne Ivanovic Baines Hutton Wisdom
    Di Maria Sterling Fabregas Siggy Boyd
    Costa Pelle Welbeck

    1. Mr Tin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      A for me, just.

    2. waltzingmatildas
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      My defence is different on the aguero one but I'm having the same issue. Comes down to whether you think aguero is worth the money.....I'm leaning towards not

  7. Dr_Deej

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

      Nah

    2. The Rock
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      means he has to score 2 to make it back.. I don't think so

          Too late now. 😉

          I back Aguero this week, Di Maria was the other one who temped me...don't think you approve of that either though 😀

          Good luck for this week!

    • 16 Years

    Tempted to start Caulker(whm) over Clyne(tot) .. makes sense? Both look like they'll concede but Caulker has the bigger goal threat obviously

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

      Clyne has the bigger goal threat surely

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

      Start Clyne IMO

    3. Cowboy John
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      Got to be Caulker.

    Is it wise to play Chester ahead of Duff and Moore in the hope that Hull could revert to a 3-5-2 formation and that he plays? Higher cs probability than the other two imo but also fear some cameo appearance...

    1. Bastien
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      I have the same 3 and I start Moore, no doubt.
      Lei better chances for a CS than Hull.
      Maybe Chester ahead of Duff, though. I bench both, btw

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

        Sorry my bad... Chester ahead of Duff and Ferdinand! I don't have Moore.

      I got Ulloa, so maybe Sakho 😉

        I have Ulloa currently myself... That WHM game though...

    3. POLSKA GOLA
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 6 months ago

      At this moment I would go Sakho because of price rise potential. I have Sakho and Ulloa.
