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.

    Think my wildcard is complete guys. Tempted by foster/Myhill and doing jones to Bertrand but I don't like WBA upcoming fixtures.

    Also annoyed I didn't keep Terry in my WC draft while he was 6.6....

    Thoughts? http://m.imgur.com/C4QRDpd

      You can do way better then two deffenders of man u

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

      double man u defence ?? :0

    3. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Your team value is insane.

    4. davies
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Shaw > Clyne

  3. M4d_H4tt3r
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Bench one:
    A) Adm
    B) Austin
    C) Costa

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

      blergh , B I guess

  4. ralfb
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    repost from end of last page
    on wc, any changes recommended?

    hamer Forster
    terry cresswell clyne wisdom pva
    fab haz adm sanchez boyd
    kun kane ings

    Thinking of ings to defoe?
    Forster Hamer to Foster Panti?

    1. the divine ponytail
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Would u play ings each week?

      Think that's a risky move

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

        would need to play ings all time, defoe as well if i get him in

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

        I imagine he'll ship before his fixtures turn, like myself.

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

          when are his fixtures going bad?

  5. the divine ponytail
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Did my wild card.

    Would appreciate a rmt please

    Krul. Guzan

    Skertal, Baird, Bruce, Dummet, Hutton

    Sanchez, Hazard, Silva, Chadli, Jones

    Kane, Costa, Kun A

    The defence is obviously weak, but it would be Skertal + the 2 with better fixtures.

    Also not sure but may go with adm over silva?

    1. Kuqi Monster
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Better options than skrtl imo. I'd rework the defence personally.

  6. coldblue
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Thinking of putting the armband on Hazard, or should I not take the risk and put it on the safe choice Kane? Had red arrows for the past 4 gameweeks and dropped out of top 10k, want to get back in.

    1. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I've got same choice to make but different reason.

      Got a tottenham season ticket and hate captaining spurs players.

      a - makes me doubly nervy
      b- inevitably fail and make me doubly cross!!

    2. OShaughnessy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      We're only half way done now, so no need to take risks.
      Not saying Hazard is risky btw, just that you shouldn't think in tems like that.

  7. Luis Suarez Ate My Homework
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    What's the big transfer this week? Anyone doing Costa > Aguero?

    My current team is:

    Hart Myhill
    Terry Clyne Wisdom Bruce Dummett
    Sanchez Hazard Boyd Silva Sterling
    Austin Aguero Kane

    1FT + 3.7m in the bank

    Cheers chaps.

    1. Luis Suarez Ate My Homework
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wooooops I currently have Costs not Aguero 🙂

  8. davies
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    RMWCT

    Panti / Krul
    Terry / Koscielny / Clyne / Cameron / Baird
    Sanchez / Hazard / Fabregas / Di Maria / Boyd
    Aguero / Kane / Ings

    Fairly template with a few differentials:

    Ings (will swap out GW25 to another budget or downgrade Fab/ADM)
    Cameron (got him for his short term fixtures to fill in for Kosc this week etc)
    Kosc (loves bonus points and Arsenal will tighten up)
    Baird (cheap way into Pulis defence)

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn't get ings...under threat from the returning vokes although i expect both to start but could mean a drop in points for ings
      kosc -too expensive for me
      is this baird guy nailed on?

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

        Punt for 3 weeks.
        I expect Arsenal to tighten up. (Monitoring)
        As far as I know, yes.

  9. The 12th Man
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Good to go?

    Forster
    Ivanovic, Terry, Bertrand
    Sanchez, Silva, Hazard, Di Maria
    Aguero, Kane, Austin

    4m, Boyd, PVA, Baird

    1. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Yes
      Who are you captaining?

      1. The 12th Man
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Not decided yet, between Kun, Kane or Haz

        1. Gooner97
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          I'm going Kane

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

      nice team

  10. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    I have a funny feeling that not owning chadli will burn me this gw...this big four midfield and overlooking chadli just coz we have kane in our teams might cost us big i guess..

    1. Tony Yeboah
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      i do worry about this....plays an excellent role for spurs from a fpl perspective ....looks dangerous

      1. lilmessipran
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        yup he is just almost always hovering in the final third looking to score

    2. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Sunderland are solid and well rested though.

      1. lilmessipran
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        fair point and spurs are really erratic ...this is the only reason i guess people dont wanna double up on spurs

  11. Gooner97
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Would you play Hutton(LIV) or Wisdom(eve)?

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Hutton

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

      Hutton

    3. Jairzinho
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Wisdom.

      (Pulis)

    4. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Hutton.

    5. Gooner97

    6. Chicken Atsu
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I've got the same dilemma, keep switching, currently on Hutton

  12. KeepCalm
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Best defender option under 4.5?

    A. Wollscheid

    B. Keane

    C. Other (provide names)

    1. super zlatan
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Pva

      1. KeepCalm
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Keep in mind, I'll be playing him more often than not

  13. KLOPPTOMANIA

      All the 2nds.

      Enter LMS, you qualify I think with that great rank.

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

        That didn't apply to me, Kiwihater.

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years

          Your rank is rank.

    4. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 13 Years

      Naylor, Austin, foster

  16. Gregor
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Did Pellegrini not make any comment on Aguero's fitness level?

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

      Said he may start and he isn't carrying any injury. (I think he definitely will, especially after dropping points vs Everton)

      1. Gregor
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Excellent, cheers Davies. Can't believe this didn't make the scout tweets.

    2. how now brown cow
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Don't think so. As a non-owner feel sure he'll start. Doesn't normally take long to get going after injury -he's hsd enough practice!

  17. the divine ponytail
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Adm or silva is my only decision left to make.

    Already have aguero.

    1. TorresMagic™
