This week’s attempt to get the better of Paddy sees us call upon the services of West Brom’s young goal hero, while we also turn to the Tottenham and Everton midfields ahead of clashes with Newcastle and Burnley respectively.

West Brom’s home encounter with Crystal Palace brings Saido Berahino into our thoughts this week. The youngster’s goal against Man United last Monday took his tally to five strikes in four appearances at The Hawthorns this season, and with the Eagles set to be without both their first-choice centre-halves this weekend, he looks poised to get amongst the goals once again. Paddy are offering a hefty 18/1 on Berahino to score twice and the Baggies to keep out their opponents and we’re willing to shell out £3 for this one.

Next up, we head to the Lane, where Tottenham prepare to take on Newcastle. We’re backing the in-form Christian Eriksen as Spurs look to recover from their Etihad mauling – the Dane has scored three times in the last five, and with Paddy prepared to offer 8/1 on Eriksen to score and the hosts to chalk up a clean sheet, we’re making this our bet of the week and hand over £4.

Finally, we place our faith in fit-again Ross Barkley as Everton roll up to Turf Moor on Sunday afternoon. As the treatment room empties, the Toffees are starting to find their domestic form and face a Clarets side that have leaked nine goals in their last three. Paddy are offering 8/1 on Barkley to score and an Everton clean sheet and we’re convinced enough to part company with our final £3.

      Wisdom and Silva

  3. Robben Mee Blind
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Mannone
    Bertrand Chambers Naylor
    ADM Sterling Siggy Fab
    Kun (C) Costa Pelle

    McCarthy Boyd Hutton Moore

    One FT but zilch ITB

    1. MARVELLUS

    2. NATSTER
      12 years, 9 days ago

      No. You are ready.

    Which 2 to start?

    A)Wisdom (CRY)
    B)Terry (mun)
    C)NTaylor (LEI)
    D)Bertrand (STO)

    1. v12w12

      1. MARVELLUS
        12 years, 9 days ago

    3. Robben Mee Blind
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Cheers for response above. Tough call this but think id go wisdom and Bertie

    4. NATSTER
      12 years, 9 days ago

      A + D ... Likeliness of CS + Attacking points.

  5. Zombie
    12 years, 9 days ago

    So Costa dropped 0.3 already and looks set to drop further to 10.8 tonight. If he doesn't start today, more sale on the way and may drop to 10.7.10.6 in next 2-3 days which almost to his initial levels and making him affordable again for QPR (perfectly suited for players who plan for only 1-2 weeks)...........All this when the transfer out is only about 8-9% this week.

    So, has FPL messed up price change system this year? or have made it intentionally this way to encourage more casual/ short term players?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      12 years, 9 days ago

      He won't start today.

      1. BobbyV
        12 years, 9 days ago

        He'll start tomorrow 🙂

      2. Zombie
        12 years, 9 days ago

        You know what I meant TM 😛

        What do you think? People who didn't sell Costa last week made a mistake as he would be affordable again by the end of next GW?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          12 years, 9 days ago

          If Costa does well this week then it's not really a mistake.
          Wish I sold earlier this week.
          Now have to hope he does well.

          1. Zombie
            12 years, 9 days ago

            Yeah..that's the only way this is salvaged. He does well..or at least starts

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              12 years, 9 days ago

              Starting isn't as important as scoring well in FPL.

    2. v12w12
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Not sure but reckon he'll start this weekend mate.

      1. Zombie
        12 years, 9 days ago

        I bloody hope so

  6. v12w12
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Who would your top 3 Southampton players be?

    I want Tadic but have to get rid of Forster, Clyne or Pelle. Who would you ditch?

    A: Forster
    B: Clyne

    Cheers

    1. BobbyV
      12 years, 9 days ago

      A
      U get more points from Bertrand, Clyne, Tadić and Pelle

  7. andres
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Play naylor or chambers?

    1. Chuda28
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Naylor

    2. NATSTER
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Naylor

  8. Mahesh_Kumar
    12 years, 9 days ago

    All set? 0 ITB

    Krul

    Baines Clyne Ivanovic (Moore, Dummett)

    ADM Sterling Siggy Diame (Boyd)

    Kun (C) Pelle Costa

    1. GK
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Not massive on having to play one of Diame or Boyd every week but apart from that gtg! Similar team to mine below

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        12 years, 9 days ago

        That is the price I have to pay if I want to keep the Kun/Costa and Baines/Ivan combo

  9. Lizard Lips
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Odds say out of Kun, Pelle, Siggi that Kun is the obvious pick. So Kun is the dullard pick, (c) it is for me then!!!

  10. Gunner77-
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Would you play Mannone (ARS) or Heaton (EVE) ?

    1. AllyS
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Heaton

  11. Retro
    12 years, 9 days ago

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        12 years, 9 days ago

        +1

  18. mads32
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Had Wellbeck as captain. Switched this morning to Aguero. I'm now worried if I've done the right thing. On top of this my 7 year old has become obsessed with FPL and is actually doing really well and thinks he can beat me. This can't happen. Mourinho has got it easy.

    1. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 9 days ago

      My youngest daughter beat me one year and got a top 10k score. I narrowed down the sensible options for her every week and she chose the ones she liked the names of...

      1. mads32
        12 years, 9 days ago

        exactly. I picked his team to start with. now he does it all himself. I teach him about which teams rotate etc how that all works but the rest is all him.

  19. Gregor
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Tired Aguero away at West Ham or fresh Pelle at home to Stoke?

    1. Mesh
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Tough one but its Aguero for me

    2. kalmoffit
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Wasn't Aguero suffering from jet lag last week

      1. Gregor
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        12 years, 9 days ago

        Fair point, how far can he be pushed though?

  20. Mesh
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Which pair is better?

    A. ADM & Chadli
    B Eriksen & Sterling

    1. radamelodrama
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Adm and eriksen

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        12 years, 9 days ago

        Might cost too much.

        1. radamelodrama
          12 years, 9 days ago

          personally I feel Chadli is horseshit.

      2. Mesh
        12 years, 9 days ago

        Can't afford it unfortunately

    2. winterwolf88
      12 years, 9 days ago

      I like B better.

    3. Sunny 😎
      12 years, 9 days ago

      B

    4. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      12 years, 9 days ago

      B

    5. Gunner77-
      12 years, 9 days ago

      A just for di maria

  21. winterwolf88
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Who would you get if it is Welbeck vs. Sanchez for arsenal cover?

    1. Sunny 😎
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Sanchez

    2. Mesh
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Welbeck, then you will have more funds to spend elsewhere

  22. NATSTER
    12 years, 9 days ago

    Quick Questions

    1) Use 1FT on Ivan -> Baines or keep it ?

    2) Correct starters and bench order ?

    Forster
    Clyne - Ivan - Naylor
    Fab - Siggy - Sterling - ADM
    Pelle - Kun - Welbeck
    Sub: Boyd, Moreno, Moore

    1. Sunny 😎
      12 years, 9 days ago

      1) Keep it

      2) I'd put Moreno ahead of Boyd

    2. radamelodrama
      12 years, 9 days ago

      I got the same team with Baines for iva and (C)osta for Kun.
      Seeya monday morning

  23. Acquafresca
    12 years, 9 days ago

    First and last question of the night:

    Who to start: Taylor(LEI) or Kaboul(NEW) ?

    Very tough call.

    1. Acquafresca
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Already starting Baines and Clyne btw before anyone asks or says "both"

      1. radamelodrama
        12 years, 9 days ago

        Naylor.

    2. Robben Mee Blind
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Kaboul

    3. Sunny 😎
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Kaboul

    4. Puyol Pants Up
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Kaboul

    5. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Spurs have a better defence. Swans underlying numbers aren't great.

      Leicester have only scored once AWAY this season, Cisse is back for Newcastle but now a doubt.

      If you can find something that rules out Cisse I'd go Kaboul....if not I think it might just be Taylor...

      Really tough as you said.

      1. Arvin-ation
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 9 days ago

        Scrap that, Leicester have to pick up their away form some time....Kaboul it is. Better defence.

    6. NATSTER
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Kaboul for me.

  24. kingozil-The Germans once a…

    1. Robben Mee Blind

    1. Sunny 😎
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Drop Cahill and upgrade Downing whenever you get the chance. Oscar could be your man

    2. Ninjaa

    2. Sunny 😎
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Begovic as I think he has a better chance of keeping a clean sheet over Krul

      1. MMN
        12 years, 9 days ago

        That's what I thought but last night everyone said Krul. 🙁

  29. Ninjaa

    So who reckons costa will play...

    Trying to decide my bench in Ufpl

    1. Art Vandelay
      12 years, 9 days ago

      I think he will play, but maybe that is because I have just lost 0.3 on him...

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      12 years, 9 days ago

      I'd have him there if possible.

    3. Billy Gilmore
      12 years, 9 days ago

      Not worth the risk imo. You got any MD3 players?

    4. Ninjaa
      12 years, 9 days ago

      I reckon he'll start
