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.

    Kane v KUN captain?
    Kane will get 90 mins
    Kun probably 60 mins or maybe even sub

    So is it worth the risk this week?
    Or should I go hazard or adm?

    1. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Kun...all day long. Kane isn't consistent enough yet for cap'n'cy.

      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Kun's points are impossible to predict.....it doesn't matter if he gets 50-60 mins.....but am going with ADM(fingers crossed!!)

    3. Blue Lion
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Kun is worth the risk imo.

      1. Skipdipper
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Be a massive steal in my ML too if he came good as most will go Kane or costa

    4. lilmessipran

      60 mins of kun .i will take that anyday...plus arsenal are more leaky than sunderland

        11 years, 1 month ago

        begovic has got bonus whenever stoke have managed a CS.....isn't it worth to keep him for the 3 favourable fixtures and bdw sunderland is up against spurs.....but may bring him the next GW.....thanks 4 d advice!!

      Looks very good to me ... are you sure about the rotating keepers?

  4. Pomp and Circumstance
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    should I do Austin --> Rooney

    what about
    Clichy --> a Southampton defender
    should I bring in Bertrand, or the less expensive Gardos
    and save funds to possibly bring in a Stoke defender soon?

    1. Oz lotto
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      no

      Bring in berty as gardos only has 2 games in him

      1. Skipdipper
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Or fonte

  5. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Hammers back four today?

    1. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Jenkinson Collins Tomkins Cresswell imho

  6. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I'm leading my cash mini league by 23points do I

    A Captain Kane who 2nd and 3rd place are likely to cap as not owning Aguero
    B Captain Aguero

    1. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Always captain who you think will score more points, ignore rivals. Still way too long to try and protect your lead, especially only 23 points.

    2. Ole Gunnar Kush
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Im in the same boat and going with Aguero

    11 years, 1 month ago

    Lads, who are the nailed on CBs at Man Utd? I was sure until yesterday that it is Jones and Rojo. But been reading articles that it will be Smalling and Rojo?

    1. Skipdipper
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Do we have any centre backs? 🙂

    2. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      When all fit:

      Jones // Smalling // Rojo

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        How about when LVG plays 4 at the back?

    3. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Smalling the only one I'd say is nailed. But I don't really fancy any of ours right now. Would avoid.

      1. Skipdipper
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Why is smalling nailed? He's dross. No composure. Has no clue with the ball at his feet. Would much rather any of the others.

      2. Mahesh_Kumar
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Just a punt for the good fixtures. Shaw can't stay fit for nuts, but I am thinking of bringing him in. Seems the safest option don't you think?

        1. Skipdipper
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Better options out there. I would avoid united defence even as a united fan

          1. Mahesh_Kumar
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            My back line right now .... Forster ... Terry Shaw Cameron Baird Wasi . Any suggestions apart from PVA? I am on wildcard

            1. Skipdipper
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Southampton ahead of united

    4. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      There arn't any that are nailed on

  9. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Bellerin: any Asenal fans around, who know how much of a Real threat is bellerin now to chambers (w/ debuchy out) ?
    or
    are we safe to go for chmbo 4.9 ? thnx in adv.

    1. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      A big threat

    2. Skipdipper
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wait a week and see? You wouldn't want an arsenal defender this week anyway?

    3. Göönër W&eum…
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      He's a threat. I'd wait and Citeh away? Wait mate

    4. Total Foot 5
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      thnx. i was not going to play him. its just beause as of next gw his fixtures improve well, and his price surely will rise if he starts tomo, which seems likely. Id need 2ft to bring him in.

      what do u think? im on wc. do:

      1.hchambers + albrighton
      2.cameron/or wisdom + boyd

  10. Jafalad
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Rate My Monkey:

    Pants/Foster

    Terry, Wisdom, Lezcott, Berty, Hutton

    Haz, Fabz, Silva, Sanchez, Boyd

    Kun, Kane, Kaustin.

    Hard to see how I can improve this.

    Differential? Triple WBA defence. Check.
    Triple CHS. Check.
    Kun. Check.
    Cheap mid with Power 4. Check.
    Form and fixtures. Check.

    How would you improve it?

    1. Skipdipper
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Fabz to adm

      1. Jafalad
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Not me for me thankyou. ADM did nothing before his injury-what's changed?

        1. Skipdipper
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          He might be playing up front if RVP injured and Rooney still deep and to include mata

          More explosive potential

          Think how good he was first few weeks

          1. Jafalad
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Bit punty for my liking. Thanks for your input though.

            1. Skipdipper
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              No worries. My OR is hardly one to be listening to anyway. Ha ha

      On a scale of Bubbles to King Kong, I'd rate it as that Orangutan from 'Every which way but Loose'

  11. Outatime
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    What to do with this team?

    Panti - Foster
    Baines - Azpi - Zab - Taylor - Hutton
    Haz - Sanchez - Silva - Siggy - Boyd
    Austin - Rooney - Kane

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Pretty simple. Swap Rooney for kun and one of your expensive defenders for a cheap one. Like now!

      1. Outatime
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Just did Rooney to Kun and Azpi to Wisdom!

    2. GaGa Over Gazzaniga!!
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      No southampton cover!!are u sure.....?

      1. Outatime
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Next week Baines --> Clyne/Bertand.

  12. Ole Gunnar Kush
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Best rotating keepers?

    On Panti and Krul at the moment..

    1. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe someone other than Krul to go with Panti

    2. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Read the GK articles

    3. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Probably not worth changing unless on a wc and got cash spare. Both guzan and foster rotate better.

    4. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Pantz/Foz.

      although Pants with Guzan or Heaton give you better fixtures.

    5. Skipdipper
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Pantz gets his points away from home though? So hard to rotate?

      1. Ole Gunnar Kush
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers!

  13. Who Ate All Depays?
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    On WC,who to get in as 3rd defender?

    Pants / Hamer
    Berty / Terry / X / Wasi / Wisdom
    ADM / Sanchez / Haz / Sanchez / Marney
    Aguero / Kane / Austin

    max 5.9m
    Also any changes would you suggest to the above team?

    1. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Sancez x 2?

      X = Koscienly or Clyne

      1. Who Ate All Depays?
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Ohh...one is Silva

    2. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Lezcott

      1. Who Ate All Depays?
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        don't fancy double up

        1. Jafalad
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          The Pulis Effect gives you the cs.

          1. Who Ate All Depays?
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            would rather wait for few games to monitor them

  14. King Kohli
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    How sure are we that Kun will start?

    Pellegrini could easily hold him back for the last 30 mins and throw him on to get a goal to win the game,

    1. Tim Canterbury
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Could easily happen

      1. Skipdipper
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Sssssh

    2. mipola
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Unlikely. City need to win here and Aguero will start.

  15. GK
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Best option to finish my WC off on chaps?

    (A) Wasil, Fonte, Berahino
    (B) Wasil, Cahill, Barnes
    (C) PvA, Bertrand, Bojan

    Pants (Hamer)
    Terry, Clyne, X (X, Wisdom)
    Hazard, ADM, Alexis, Silva, Chadli
    Aguero, Kane (X).

    1. Najoman86
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      A

  16. Pomp and Circumstance
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    is Rooney an OK choice for the next few GWs? schedule looks favorable:
    QPR (a), Leicester (h), West Ham (a), Burnley (h), Swansea (a) in next 5

    1. King Kohli
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Schedule wont matter much if he keeps playing CM

    2. Najoman86
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Solid fixtures... position the only issue. Not much value if he sits deep

    3. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I've just bought him for the next 2 before WC. It's a massive punt though and wouldn't bring him in as a permanent solution.

      1. Pomp and Circumstance
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        thanks!

        captain Rooney, Kane,or Costa?

    4. Puyol Pants Up
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Would rather have ADM

      1. Skipdipper
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Especially if he continues up front

  17. King Kohli
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Who will start today, B.Davies or Rose?

    Both played 90min midweek

    1. Najoman86
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I think Davies will start

  18. Najoman86
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Costa or Rooney to Aguero - or keep both for the GW & wait a week on Kun?

    One week punt - Zabaleta to Cresswell, Vertonghen, Coleman or Baines - if Baines, won't be able to afford Kun

    Thoughts appreciated

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Get. Wayne. Out. Of. There

      Done nothing away all season and playing in midfield.

    2. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Aguero
      Cresswell

    3. GK
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Rooney to Aguero, hold on to Costa!

    Captaining Costa a good pick? In top 10k but had a few crap picks of late.

    1. Costa - current captain
    2. Kun
    3. Kane
    4. Hazard
    5. Sanchez
    6. ADM - not convinced

    1. Trading Bear
      • 12 Years

      Kane = safety
      Sanchez = flair

      No stand out this week for me. As good as any. Think Chelsea will win easily.

    3. Jafalad

      Has to be Kun.

    4. Old Man

      Costa might be a really good choice - but who knows? He's just as likely to finish with YC and 1 point than a brace and 13.

    Captain?

    Aguero
    Kane
    Sterling
    Di Maria
    Hazard

    Decisions, decisions..

    1. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Kun, kun, kun.

      1. Kurtinho
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Only concern is whether he'll play the full 90.

        1. Jafalad
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Doesn't matter. Kun only needs a few minutes to do the do.

    What are your thoughts on double Sunderland and double WBA defence?

      If you have Chelsea, saints and random cheap filth as other spots, looks good. Will be doing the same with west brom

      1. Puyol Pants Up
        • 11 Years

        Terry, Bertrand and Wasil are my other 3 defenders

      Love it. I'm going triple WBA - Lez, Wiz, Foz.

    is Trippier still a doubt?

    1. Kurtinho
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Dyche expects he'll be fit.

    2. Skipdipper
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      He's not trained though

      1. Skipdipper

        Lancashire telegraph...

        KIERAN Trippier and Jason Shackell are set to provide Burnley a fitness boost ahead of the clash with Crystal Palace at Turf Moor tomorrow.

        Trippier was withdrawn midway through the second half of the FA Cup defeat at Tottenham and didn’t train yesterday but Dyche is hopeful he will have recovered in time for tomorrow’s game.

    Any idea why Rose was subbed off on 59 mins?

    Saved for today or any injury?

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years

      To troll his owners in FA Cup Fantasy

  26. Benteke10
    • 12 Years

    Ameobi, Lucas or Albrighton?

    Would Baines (C) be mental? Considering him, Kane and Costa...

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Ha ha. Jinx!

    4.5 defender for this game week?

    1. The Hindu Monkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      That new Stoke defender

  30. gdog2244
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    GK: Hamer,B Foster
    DEF: Clichy, Clyne, Terry, Wisdom, Cameron
    MID: Sanchez, Fab, Haz, Chadli, Puncheon
    FWD: Aguero, Kane, Austin
    0.1 ITB
    0 FT

    How's this WC team look? Could do Puncheon to Boyd and use funds elsewhere..

    1. Jafalad
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Hamer - would rather Pantz.
      Prefer to see Silva in midpark
      Change Clichy to Hutton or Lezcott
      Upgrade Chadli. Punchurface to Boyd.
