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.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        On the cards next week with 2 FTs in hand.

    So who is ranked out of the top 10K?

    http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/3030676/history/

    Sorry.

    1. The Machine
      • 12 Years

      ?

      1. The Finnisher
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Started GW2

        1. TorresMagic™

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years

          Aim to pass all them by the end.

    2. Annie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      um, you?

      1. The Finnisher
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        What

        1. Annie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          that's a question, so use a question mark.
          Not sure what point you are making?

          1. The Finnisher
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            Alright, well where is your capital letter to start your sentence? 🙄

          2. The Finnisher
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            And it's pretty clear that I was just showing a team ranked 10K who started GW2.

            1. Annie
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 4 months ago

              very clear, well done!

              1. The Finnisher
                • 14 Years
                11 years, 4 months ago

                There was already 2 replies in the thread showing what it is but alright. No need to be upset that your attempt at outwitting me backfired.

                1. Annie
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 13 Years

                  calm down dear

              • 12 Years
              11 years, 4 months ago

              to be fair you never put that you had started in GW 2 in your statement.

    3. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Ah ok gameweek 2 🙁

    4. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      *facepalm* I guess I'm just going to have to give up now 😛

    5. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Dreadful season history - best 550,000. Hard to believe he'll hold it together all season give that

  4. Liastro ⭐️
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    All set for today? No hit.

    Forster
    Baines - Naylor - Wisdom
    Fabregas - Sterling - Tadic - Siggy
    Aguero (C) - Costa - Pelle (VC)

    Foster - Marney - PvA - Saylor

    1. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Looks all good to me.

  5. januzki
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Costa, Vlaar -> Pelle, Baines for free? Already have Tadic.

    1. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      aye

      but how will you get Costa for next week?

      1. januzki
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        That's the thing. Should I go for ADM, Vlaar -> Chadli/Siggy, Baines instead?

  6. Luis Suarez Ate My Homework
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Is ADM > Alexis worth a -4 hit?

    Used my 1FT on Welbeck > Pelle.

    1. swobe
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I believe so. Recon Sanchez's haul will be greater than ADM's over the coming weeks.

    2. Jam0sh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      no

  7. battlecat
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    What is the best way to bring Baines in to this bunch? Thinking Cahill to Baines but it looks like I'll need to downgrade an expensive midfielder but which one and to whom?

    Bego (Mannone)
    Cahill, Clyne, Wisdom (Duff, Hutton)
    Fabregas, ADM, Sterling, Siggy (Marney)
    Costa, Aguero, Naismith

    2 FT with 0.4 ITB.

    If I have leftovers is it worth doing Naismith to Berrinho/Sakho? I've pondered too long.

    1. Koolswan
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Suggestion:
      Cahil to Baines &
      Siggy to make way for Routeledge or Downing

      The other option is to just get Jageilkia and upgrade to Sakho instead of Naismith

    2. the Penman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Begovic to a 4.5? Or even a 4? Since Sunderland won't get beat 8-0 every week...

      1. battlecat
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Not sure I'd be comfortable with Mannone and a 4.0 guy. How safe is his place with Pantillimon in the bench if he puts in another poor show?

        Jags is an option as I've only ever been burned by Baines when I've previously had him.

        Thanks for the responses.

  8. Timtastic03
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Start Wisdom or Naylor?

    1. Zombie
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Wisdom. Swansea defense one of the worst

    2. FantaCity
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      wisdom, but both ideally.

      1. Timtastic03
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Chambers and Clyne are the other 2

        1. FantaCity
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          point taken - lucky you!

    3. GunsnRoses
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      People would say Wisdom but I am going with Naylor

    4. Sunny 😎
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Naylor

  9. GunsnRoses

        Don't think many have it. Most are selling Costa for either Aguero or Pelle

        1. Timtastic03
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Many around here are selling him, his ownerships still >50%

    Does tadic play behind striker ??

    1. tokara
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      He has the freedom to roam, otherwise primarily a winger

  13. swobe
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Start :
    A) Lloris (NEW)
    B) Guzan (qpr)
    Then..
    C) JT
    D) Wisdom

    1. Les Bleus

      Pelle or Aguero?

      1. Sarnab
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        I don't have Aguero at the moment.

                • 14 Years
                11 years, 4 months ago

                Aguero will Max. Get 1goal.

                1. Djerbil
                  • 14 Years

  16. Think Tank

    How many people have the B.I.C. Backline here?

    1. Sunny 😎
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Waiting for someone to say they have the B.I.T.C.H 😆

      1. enrico.palazzo
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Baines Iva, Coleman, trippier clyne and hutton? 😉

        1. Sunny 😎
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          I was thinking Baines, Ivan, Taylor, Chambers, Hutton which more affordable and I bet someone will have it

      2. Think Tank

    Foster (krul)
    Baines - clyne - wisdom
    Chadli - sterling - siggy - fab
    Costa - pelle (vc) - Aguero (c)

    Cork, hutton, duff

      And good luck all 🙂

  19. Deicide
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Pelle or Aguero for the armband? I'm so confused. I don't want to make a mistake with captain again.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      stoke won't concede 8 and probably knock lumps out of pelle

      aguero

    2. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Leave it on whoever it's on right now.

      1. Deicide
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        It's currentely on Aguero.

    3. Think Tank
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Both good choices - go with your gut.

    4. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Aguero

    5. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I think Stoke are good enough to deal with pelle m notice all his blanks have come against slightly above average defences

      Pelle owner

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        But he's only blanked once at home.

        1. The Machine
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Would say Stoke are better than anyone they have facedar at home so far

        2. Mull
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          They've had easy home fixtures

    6. Deicide
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Thank you guys. I'll pick the safest option. Aguero.

  20. galway77
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Buy Costa or play Chaldi

    1. Think Tank
      • 12 Years

    2. Epic Fail

    This feels like a really stupid question but

    Is Bertrand + Pelle > Alderweireld + Costa for free decent?

    Got Aguero

    A) Baines and Pelle
    B) 5.5m and Costa

    (Not for this GW, which is better going forward?

    People asking Aguero or Pelle as if there is a fixed answer. Run it 100 times Kun would come out on top so has to be the pick but on any given day you might be looking at Kun 2 points and Pelle 15 points. Pick Kun and if you take a bad beat, accept it!!!!

      Yes, that's about right. You can't pay 12.5m for a striker and not (C) him

    Torn between Eriksen or Berahino for (C)?

    This is so seriously going to backfire on all the people the sold Costa for Kun.. u just cudn't write the script

    Can't decide who to field as my 3rd defender!
    A. Wisdom vs CPL (H)
    B. Williams vs LEI (H)

    Mannone: 27
    Krul + Mannone Away: 25
    Krul + Mannone at Home: 24
    Krul: 22

    Does home/away goalie rotation actually work?
