The Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 22

We place our faith in Tottenham’s man-of-the-moment and a couple of fit-again, Manchester-based South Americans in this week’s attempt to get the better of Paddy.

We turn to Tottenham’s home encounter with Sunderland, as Harry Kane looks to continue the form that has racked up six goals in as many league appearances. Rested for the midweek cup win over Burnley, he’s set to lead the line against a side that have blanked in seven of their ten road trips – with Paddy offering 9/1 on Kane to score two or more goals and Spurs to keep a clean sheet, we’re more than willing to make this our bet of the week and throw £4 their way.

City’s home clash against Arsenal brings Sergio Aguero onto our radar. Given that the corresponding fixture finished 6-3 to the champions last season, there could be plenty of goals in this one yet again. Paddy are willing to offer 11/1 on Aguero to score two or more goals and Man City to keep a clean sheet and with Vincent Kompany back for the hosts, we’re sticking our necks out and handing over another £3.

Our final bet is kept for Loftus Road, as United face a QPR side unbeaten in seven in front of their own fans. Louis van Gaal will be demanding a response after last week’s dire display against Southampton and with Paddy offering 5/1 on Angel di Maria to score and the Red Devils to keep a clean sheet, we’re prepared to part with our final £3.

        Thanks, any word on Lallana and Gerrard being fit?

    All set?

    Foster Myhill
    Baines Terry Clyne PvA Baird
    Hazard ADM Sanchez Chadli Boyd
    Kun Kane Austin

    2.6m ITB.

    2.6m means I can do Baines Chadli -> up to Kompany Cesc in 2 weeks time.

    Bertrand / Jones / ubers + Wally / Silva / Siggy in consideration.

    1. Jafooli

      Very strong Koflok, your TV must be massive?

      1. Koflok
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        104.3m SV. Pretty decent I think?

        1. Jafooli
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Only 102.6m SV here, so yeah you have 2m more to play with....

    2. GordonGekko
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Who the F would you bench here? I am so lost ... and would dearly appreciate some help. WCing in GW24 is the plan:

      Adrian (Panti)
      Bertrand / Skrtl / Cresswell (Clichy, Moore)
      Silva / Hazard / Sanchez / Downing (Eriksen)
      Rooney / Kane / Austin

      Switching back and forth between benching Eriksen, Sanchez, Rooney and Austin; as soon as I make one change, I start emphasising another factor, and switch again...

        9 years, 5 months ago

        wops, responded the wrong place, my bad. Great team for this gw for sure. Hard to find a faulton the first 11, though I'm not entirely sold on ADM being back in form.

        1. Koflok
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Cheers bud. Yeah ADM based on fixture, hoping he can do something in the next few..

          And I would bench Eriksen easily. He's been crap since Chadli returns.

      Silva bench ahead of erikson then as you have it

      1. GordonGekko
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Now I've benched Sanchez o.O City home with Kompany back, not so easy even for the chilean trickster. I've never been this undecided before a gw, probably means it's more or less a coin flip on who'll do well this gw.

        1. Skipdipper
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          Benching Sanchez would be very very brave!

          1. GordonGekko
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Haha, trying to take bravery out of the equation deciding this, but thanks 😛 At least I can fall back on that excuse if it goes awry :p

      Normally goes for hatters against the Arsenal.

  13. FPLEL

    Is there any chance that simply owning Kun this week is a differential in the top 50k? Or would one need to Cap him for a differential?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      He's a differential either way.

    2. The one who has a knock

      Owning is enough this week I think

  14. Sliver

    What's the consensus on Defoe? Worth a punt?

    1. Skipdipper
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Against his old club. Seems written in the stars he will score 🙂

  15. Jafooli

    How will Utd line up this GW?

    1. Skipdipper
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Lord only knows!

      On a tight pitch would wing backs be a bit daft?

      1. KeepCalm
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        The Pulis factor makes Foster more safe I think...you reckon Jones a good choice?

  17. Not Irish
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Man I can't imagine playing my WC this week. I wouldn't know who to pick.

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      That's my problem 🙂

      1. Not Irish
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        😆 But I'm worried it won't be any better in a couple weeks. 🙁

        1. Diva
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 5 months ago

          If form current doesn't change much in that period, I'm facing either a) change for the sake of change (which might not be for the better) or b) letting it slide (which would feel like sacrilege).

          1. Skipdipper
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Play your wc and make no changes. Ballsy 🙂

            1. Diva
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              I haven't played my wildcard this week, but that's the dilemma I'll face soon. Can you imagine playing a wildcard and only wanting to make changes that merit, say, -4?

          2. Not Irish
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            I know right. Said last week I'll just about have my team fixed come WC time. It will inevitably go to pieces the next GW.

            1. Diva
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              Injuries and suspensions may ease our dilemma Muppet.

          3. BeachBadger
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 5 months ago

            Thats one of the reasons I played mine. Got a bit of price rises and fixed my team rather than gradually changing it, losing some points and then having nothing to do come WC time 😆

            1. Diva
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 5 months ago

              😆 As I still have my first wildcard it's kinda tempting to do one crazy week where I load up on differential players with great fixtures then switch back to the regular picks the week after. 😆

              1. BeachBadger
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 5 months ago

                That kind of frivolous behaviour would have many here screaming at you haha

    2. Diva
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Heh. If I were wildcarding this week my post WC team would look a lot like my pre-WC team.

    3. Blue Lion
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Better let it go then. 😉

    4. Old Man
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      That's an excellent reason for waiting - are you holding on until week 23->24?

    8th Attacking Player:

    Rotation anyone? Next six below:

    CPA // BUR // WBA // QPR // WBA // SWA

    1. Patty

      Very nice!

    2. Skipdipper

      Will Defoe start?

      1. Trading Bear
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Think he will. Sunderland are taking a huge financial gamble with him not to play him. They have two target man and need a poacher to nick the goals.

    3. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Rotating attackers will end in tears. Attacking returns are a lot harder to predict than CS.

      1. Trading Bear
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I would argue with the (c) always likely to be on one of: Aguero // Hazard // Sanchez you can afford to take a chance on the others.

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 10 Years

      I reckon it's in celebration of a couple goals some blonde headed chap scored the other day.

    Is Wollscheid nailed? Anyone know more about him? Attacking potential?

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Like Mertesacker, Wollscheid may be big, but he will not strike the fear of God into opposing strikers. At his best, he is a gifted all round defender, with excellent positioning and relatively secure heading and tackling. He can play with both feet, and can mark equally well man to man or zonally, although he can be prone to losses of concentration.

        I am not sure if I should consider that a 'go ahead'

      2. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        I'd say he's nailed after coming straight into the team last week.

        Has scored 11 goals in his career of around 200 games.

    Worth swapping Costa for kun for a hit? Getting nervous...

    1. Blue Lion
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Naa...

  26. Blue Lion
    • 10 Years

    So tempted to do Austin to Defoe....

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Defoenitely not.

      1. Blue Lion
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Thought he would be defoelt pick.

    2. Not Irish
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Defoe Ings Kane 😎

      1. Blue Lion
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 5 months ago

        Defense and Milfs are going to be delicious!

    3. All about Pliny
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Resist the temptation!

  27. Jafooli
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 5 months ago

    Hutton or Baird?

    1. Blue Lion
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 5 months ago

      Baird.

    No Nasri is good or bad for Kun? Or no impact? How will City line up?

  29. Beard of Zeus

    The madness is descending.. I'm considering captaining Downing instead of Sanchez or Kane. Ballsy differential or truly losing the plot?

      Don't smoke anymore of it! 🙂
