With the first Manchester derby of the season set to take place later today, Paddy Power are rolling out a tempting offer for those yet to register an account. With City set to welcome United to the Etihad this afternoon, our bookmaker mates are offering odds of 5/1 for Manuel Pellegrini’s men to arrest their recent poor form and grab a win or a massive 14/1 on Louis van Gaal’s emerge victorious:

If you already have an account with Paddy, though, you can still take advantage of a Money Back Special. Paddy will refund all losing First Goalscorer, Last Goalscorer, Correct Score & Scorecast singles on the match as a free bet if it ends in a draw.

To clarify, both the City and United enhanced odds special is limited to a £10 stake, open to new Paddy Power customers only and subject to the terms and conditions specified. New customers can only opt for one of the two offers.

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.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

  2. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Pick one defender to bring in for Cahill. (4.5 and under)

    A. Wilson/Cameron
    B. Vlaar/Hutton
    C. Wisdom (Already own Foster)
    D. Kelly
    E. Colo (Already own Dummett)
    F. Chester/Robertson
    G. PVA/Oshea.

    Cheers.

  3. Owd Big 'Ed
    • 17 Years

    Bertrand --> Dummett, Sterling --> Sanchez. Thoughts?

    De Gea, Gilks
    Baines, Bertrand, Chambers, Hutton, Wisdom
    Fabregas, Sterling, Sigurdsson, Chadli, Marney
    Costa, Aguero, Pelle

    0.2 ITB. 1 FT..

  4. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Which one would you choose? This could be season defining. 😯

    1) Tadic + Sterling to Sanchez + Downing

    2) Sterling + Welbeck to ADM + Sahko

    3) Sterling, Siggy + Welbeck to Sanchez, Downing + Sahko

    3. Shifty
      • 13 Years

      Just seen Downings fixtures. That's it I'm doing 1)

  5. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    some people saying keep tadic and some saying get sanchez

    big confusion tonight on what to do

    tadic could do well v leicester and villa but then it means no sanchez and if I don't get him tonight I will never be able to afford him.

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      It is so situational to the specific team. Tadic still should be banging in points....still completely mental that Soton has yet to earn a penalty in the league....but if he is the best route to Sanchez it could be a good move as Sanchez is at another level of class and could easily get better if the last 20 minutes of today's game was any sign once Feo and Ramsey were reintroduced.

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Tough one. Tadic could get another mental score over the next 2 GW's for sure.
      Go with your gut. Any other way?

    3. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      i think you gotta do what you can to get the guy who will likely be top scorer this season

  6. FionnMac
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    I've posted this a couple times now but people seem reluctant to answer. Can I get some advice plzzzzz 🙂

    1FT and £1.2m in the bank. I'd prefer Sanchez over Hazard but I can get Haz with exact money but I'd need a hit to get Sanchez, and downgrade Terry prob

    A) Sterling > Hazard
    B) Sterling > Sanchez &
    Terry > Wisdom or Dummet for -4 (to go on bench this week
    C) Something else?

    Bego
    Clyne Chambers Baines
    Siggy Tadic ADM Sterling
    Aguero Pelle Berahino

    Bench - Terry, Duff, Marney

    1. Sean
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      take the hit and get sanchez imo

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      B. you can play those 3 defenders week in, week out. wisdom imo

      1. FionnMac
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        So if I'm playing Baines Chambers Clyne every week, why the extra £0.2m or £0.3m for Wisdom over Dummet or even Steven Taylor?

    3. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I'd take the hit personally. Mourinho seems to have sacrificed cleansheets for attractive football.

      1. droginexile
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        chelsea ere te same last year as well, tightened up after christmas. Brought Terry in on my jan WC last season and they just stopped conceding goals i the new year. Their time will come. Wait til after christmas for terry Id say. sell now and buy back when he's cheaper

        1. droginexile

      Good for you!

    2. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years

      A 'mug move' eh? 😕

      Any thoughts above?

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        B because you need to get AdM or Fab in for Tadic. Whichever you don't have.

    3. Hibbo
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Why you crying?

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years

        Because it was too damn late.

          Do you want a hug? I took a hammering this week too.

            • 12 Years

            Need a bit more than that I think. Am drunk.

      Even though you come out here on the boards with some words too strong for my liking at times, I respect you for being able to remedy your mistaken calls. Good on you MRU.

      1. Hibbo
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        This is a key fantasy skill really.

        Holding up your hands and saying I got it wrong and if needs be taking the hit rather than ploughing on ignorantly operating within some restrictive self-imposed rules of not taking hits and being over patient.

        1. Jay_
          11 years, 8 months ago

          That's so true

        2. Walsh
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Yep. And here on FFS not disappearing for days when you call it wrong, which MRU never does, which is refreshing. Cannot say that about many other posters.

  8. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years

    Repost.

    2 FTs, 0 itb

    A. Sterling & Tadic -> Sanchez & Downing

    B. Sterling, Tadic & Chester -> Sanchez, Diame & Chambers (-4)

    1. Shifty
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      A and leaning toward that personally. Would hate to lose Tadic but got his haul and do have Pelle to get some returns the Southampton attack.

  9. piquiblanco
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    I sold Siggy instead of Sterling and was forced to do full -8 in order to repair it somehow by buying Sanchez. And I'm not even drunk so it was no fun 🙁

    1. Sean
      • 16 Years

      there really is not many mid priced midfield options to consider atm,i already have all the good ones

            i did the same sale as you last week,got sanchez but now im stumped with sterling

  10. ILOVEBAPS

    Terry ➡ Baines done!

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 16 Years

      no sanchez?

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        I have Sanchez already. 😉

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years

      good. better late than never 😉

      1. Walsh
        • 12 Years

        This! It's Baines' world and we are all living in it...so far anyway.

  11. Jay_
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Am I correct in planning my transfers mainly towards getting West Ham and Swansea players gw13 after the break , Bego, Clyne and Bertie is real worry too from gw13

  12. Puzzle
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    De Gea, Sterling, Siggy -> Jakupovic, Sanchez, Downing for -4?

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      If Jakupovic isn't your only keeper

      1. Puzzle
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Have Krul as well

    2. piquiblanco
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I just done that, only with Lloris > Krul and for -8.
      Mixed feelings tho, so can't help you.

  13. waldo666
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    2FT and 1.4 ITB

    Foster
    Chambers Cahill Baines Bertrand
    Di Maria Hazard Sterling Siggy
    Welbeck Costa

    (Krul Naismith Boyd Wisdom)

    Cahill to Duff and Sterling to Sanchez for free?

    Was hoping to get rid of Naismith this week but going without Sanchez for any longer makes me nervous

    1. MMN
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Can you afford Welbeck > Sakho instead of Cahill > Duff?

      1. waldo666
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Could do MMN but nervous about getting Sakho in early whilst he still has an orange flag

  14. MMN
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Naismith & Sterling > Sakho & Downing? (for free)

    1. waldo666
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Can you wait for Sakho injury update?

      1. MMN
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        I can but he was almost available for Stoke, Big Sam waited till last minute for Stoke trip so he should defo be fine. Scared Naismith will drop. :/

  15. Bridge Burner
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    Should I take a -4 hit for

    A) Sakho

    Or

    B) Berahino

    Thanks

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I went against the flow...

      Berahino!

      1. Bridge Burner
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Only problem his next few fixtures are tougher

        1. ILOVEBAPS
          • 14 Years

          Yeah true. But I like the cut of his jib.

  16. coopsxx

    Anyone know why Liam Moore didn't play for Leicester?

    1. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Cause I have owned Wasilewski for weeks and it was time for him to come into the side. Duh.

    2. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years

      He didn't start 😯 I guess buying Chambers to start ahead of Moore was a good move after all .

  17. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 8 months ago

    DCosta: does everyne think he must be owned or can he be dismissed for either berahino or sakho? short trm i guess.

    1. Jay_
      11 years, 8 months ago

      That's what I've been thinking about all night, no rush yet tough, gw12 is the time to get him back

      1. Total Foot 5
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        this dcosta factor if dismissed could help distribute funds magically in a team .

    or

    B: Di Maria, Sanchez, Sakho and Foster (no soton def though :\) - http://i.imgur.com/L3MbMJb.png

    I want some Southampton defenders since not having them is single handedly destroying me but unsure 😐

    1. jaredwilliams
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      B for me. Southampton's good run finishes soon.

      1. Clintymints
        • 17 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        I still think they will do well... It really is destroying me in in the ranks!

        Forster might be good since CS odds might diminish against the bigger teams with some save points thrown in

        Southampton look solid I was very impressed. I haven;t seen them play this season until today and it looked ok! 2 weeks before bad fixts too

    2. mc110
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I think the ship may have sailed for SOT defenders, given their fixtures in GW 13-15

    Yay or Nay ?

  23. Charlie&TheLads

    Pelle or Tadic or .........mmm both?

  24. President John F. Keninnsie
    • 12 Years

    A Chadli goal would be loooovely.

    1. UnderstandablyDistraught
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      oh it sure would

    2. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      A couple for Aguero would be even better (in a loss of course).

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years

        I'll take that if ADM gets the goals for United.

      It needs to happen. Really don't want that bandwagon to fall over now, the timing wouldn't be ideal.

    Sanchez is more or less a must have now I guess?

    Is it mental to do Baines + Tadic to Wisdom + Sanchez, for a hit? ....

    1. LewanGOALski
      • 14 Years

      Dont lose Baines

      1. Turtlepower
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Wish I don't have to ;p

    2. President John F. Keninnsie

      Poor transfers IMO. Any way you can get Sanchez without losing Baines?

      1. Turtlepower
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Was planning Tadic and Baines out in 2gw time for Azpi/Luiz + Walcott anyway....

        My lineup is pretty strong, loathe to lose any of the rest...

        Front 8:

        Fab, ADM, Siggy, Tadic, Boyd
        Aguero, Costa, Pelle

        Any suggestions? Only have 0.2 in the bank.

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Probably won't be a popular choice but Fab and Tadic to Sanchez and Downing? I think Baines and Downing will outscore Fab and Wisdom... Yes Fab's super consistent but Baines is outscoring him at the moment and Downing has great form and fixtures. Something for you to consider maybe.

            • 12 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            Will look at that, thanks for the suggestion!

      Alexis has swa, MUN, wba next. Can't see him doing much in those 3 fixtures

      1. Turtlepower
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        I can actually, he seems fixture proof...

        1. Willis.
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Apart from one, all of his goals have come against Leicester, Hull, Sunderland and Burnley. "Fixture proof" lol

          1. Turtlepower
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            He produced in all the games he played 90min.

    Bego > foster -4 to avoid the drop in price? Brom better fixtures also

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I'm thinking the same except for Adrian.
      May go Krul however to save .5

      Holy shit, no

      1. Van Dal

        Lol why?

  27. Venom Snake

    Must make a move before price change or can't be done, thoughts on these please.

    A. Sterling and Welbeck to Sanchez and Sakho
    or
    B. Sterling and Tadic to Sanchez and Downing

    Thankyou

    1. Hibbo
      • 13 Years

      A.

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years

      A

    3. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      • 16 Years

      A

    4. Walsh
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      A by a mile.

    5. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      B

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        Erm.. Maybe A 😛

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Depends on Sakho's fitness

    6. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Probably A

    7. Obi Wan Elokobi
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      B, Sakho may not even be back and Tadic is only surviving in people's teams due to one week

      1. Hibbo
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        He's at home to Leicester why would anyone take him out then?

        1. UnderstandablyDistraught
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          and Villa after that

        2. Obi Wan Elokobi
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 8 months ago

          Everyone was saying the same about Costa all week. He's got QPR must have blah blah blah.

          1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            Really not the same. Tadic has started EVERY game and is the heartbeat of the team.. Costa hadn't even kicked a ball for ages

          2. Hibbo
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 8 months ago

            Mane has a tap in from maybe 3yds out which he skied for a Tadic assist there today that's maybe a 4 pts swing with a bit of bonus. He's been a bit unlucky looks a real player and yeah that's what people said about Costa is right, its what they said about Sanchez too. And that worked out grand you aren't going to get them all right but make the percentage plays in the long run you'll score consistently better. So I'd be keeping Tadic for Leicester and Villa if I had him.

      2. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
        • 16 Years

        Have you seen the guy play?!

    8. Jay_
      11 years, 8 months ago

      B but wait a week

    9. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Why is everyone on A?

      B for me for sure

      1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 8 months ago

        lol because B has Tadic out for Downing!?!

    Haven't picked a good captain all season. Damn you Costa. Well annoyed

    1. lespaul
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      I know right? Aguero last week and Costa this week I'd be 2nd overall if i got those right

    anyone care to make a case for valencia over sakho?

    1. Obi Wan Elokobi
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      Probably more nailed on when Carroll comes back and is currently fit other than that no.

    2. Ludo
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 8 months ago

      One thing you could say is that if West Ham go 4-2-3-1, as they did against Man City, then it's Sakho that drops to right wing, whilst Valencia stays up front. Didn't stop Sakho getting the winner, though.
