With tenner in hand, we go up against Paddy once again this morning. This time round, we turn to Sunderland’s new frontman, Liverpool’s young midfielder and Arsenal’s lone forward to boost our prospects of ending the weekend in profit.

We kick off at the Stadium of Light, where Jermain Defoe is set for his Premier League home debut for Sunderland against Burnley. With Gus Poyet determined to go on the attack and take advantage of some kind fixtures in front of the Wearside faithful, Defoe’s output looks key to the Black Cats’ survival. Paddy are offering 25/1 on Defoe to score two or more and Sunderland to serve up a clean sheet later today – we’ve a feeling he’ll make the difference against the Clarets and hand over our first £3.

Liverpool will be looking to bounce back from their midweek Capital One Cup exit as West Ham make their way to Anfield later today. With the Hammers nursing a number of injury worries, we’re backing the home side to do the business here – Paddy are offering 11/2 on Raheem Sterling to score and the Reds to keep a clean sheet and we’re confident enough to shell out another £3 for the Merseyside match.

Our final stop is at the Emirates, where Arsenal entertain out-of-sorts Villa. The Gunners have their tails up after defeating City on their travels last time around and with their visitors scoring once in the last seven Gameweeks, a win for Arsene Wenger’s side is highly anticipated. With Paddy offering 13/2 on Olivier Giroud to score two or more goals and Arsenal to keep a clean sheet, we’re making this one our bet of the week and part company with our final £4.

    Late WC ... RMT please.

    Panti - Krul
    Terry - Kosc - Bertrand - PvA - Baird
    Sanchez - Hazard - ADM - Cazorla - Downing
    Aguero - Defoe - Kane

    1.1m ITB

    Any change?

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      go for Yun instead of Baird...don't like the Downing pick

      1. NATSTER
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I had Yun earlier. Never felt QPR CS. Is he rotation risk?

        Downing -> Puncheon ?

    2. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I think Defoe is a terrible pick. Get Giroud in, and downgrade ADM to Puncheon (or similar)

      1. Delhidynamo
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Downing to Tadic if you fancy a punt

      2. NATSTER
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        If I get Giroud, I can't have one of Cazorla or Kosc or Sanchez.

        Hesitate to sell Sanchez as I got him cheap.

  2. Sithlord007
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Hi,

    Anyone considering Sterling for Cpt?

    1. Bumbaclot
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Vice

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

      Liverpool not exactly converting all those chances they creating do

    3. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      have him currently as cap

  3. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Is anyone starting with Sanchez as captain?

    Surely he'll either start or not be involved at all, so worth the risk?

    1. Davros
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Shhhh

    2. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Start him, yes. Captain, no.

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        You think there's a chance he starts from the bench and comes on late?

    3. The ghost of a Pug's g…
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      No

    4. Numb
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      But if he does start he may have to go off if he breaks down. If not then he'll be subbed as soon as Arsenal go two up.

  4. Bumbaclot
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Good to go then guys!?

    Pants
    Wolschield/Fonte/Jones
    Sanchez/Sterling/Hazard/AJ

    Thankyou

    Who the heck is Chuba Akpo? He's evens to score tomorrow - ahead of wallcot!

    1. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      2nd choice striker due to Welbeck being out. May get a game due to Sanchez injury.

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Young striker. The odds are based on players starting so it's not surprising, really

    3. QPR expects... glory!
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Excellent. Means that other players who'll actually start will offer better odds:)

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        That's not how it works.

    4. Numb
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Shhh

  6. Daniel Levy- Not the Chairm…
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    See QPR finally getting something away from home today. Austin to score to annoy those who sold him on WC

    1. Revival

    Utd using 4-4-2. What position will Rooney play?

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      His usual position

    2. Delhidynamo
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      CM

      With Blind alongside him I guess

      Falcao Rvp strikers

      1. internal error

        1. Delhidynamo
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Yes

    3. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Wouldn't be surprised if he was GK with van Gaal picking the teamsheet.

  12. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Quick post before bed, pretty much finalised. Just wondering about the fringe players. Are there any better alternatives to Hamer, Hutton, Wisdom and Boyd?

    ------------------------Pants - Hamer----------------------

    Bertrand - Terry - Shawcross - Hutton - Wisdom

    Hazard - Sterling - Sanchez - Di Maria - Boyd

    -----------------Aguero - Giroud - Kane------------------

    1. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Prefer JWP to Boyd

      1. You've got red on you.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        cant afford JWP

    2. The ghost of a Pug's g…
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      You not tempted to have caz instead of Sanchez?

      1. You've got red on you.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        cant afford to get Sanchez back if I get rid

  13. Sly Fly
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    What would you do with this team?

    Pantillimon | Heaton
    Terry | Clyne | Hutton | Wisdom | Duff
    Downing | Eriksen | Silva | Sanchez | Boyd
    Costa | Aguero | Kane

    Thinking either Costa > Rooney as a straight swap, or something like Costa > Pelle and Downing > Cazorla.

    Sensible or something much better out there?

    1. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Your problems, in order of severity are

      Costa
      Downing
      Duff
      Boyd

      So I like your second idea, assuming not for a hit

      1. Sly Fly
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        It is for a hit. But I'd rather not wildcard until next week.

  14. tw
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    gink - why sell gilks?

    i've got 4 players flagged so is it really best to sell a gk when i'll WC next week?

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      😀 I want his price to drop to 3.9!

    2. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      He just wants Gilks to drop 😆

  15. Demí
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Looking at this defence when i wildcard next week i think:

    Alderweireld, Naughton, Bellerin, Terry and Wollscheid.

    Would play Toby and Terry every week.

    1. tw
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      why naughton?

      1. Demí
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Cheap and some decent fixtures for Swansea. I expect them to improve defensively with Ki back and Cork signing.

    2. The ghost of a Pug's g…
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      How nailed is ballerina though?

      1. Demí
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Not nailed, but should see his fair share of game time, and i wouldn't expect him to come off the bench so my sub just comes in for when he's not playing.

        1. The ghost of a Pug's g…
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          When playing a wc I don't like the idea of short term punts.

    3. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Wouldn't have dreamed of seeing anyone play a defence like that a month ago

    4. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Like it

    5. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I like it.
      Maybe Naughton to Wisdom? Or Bellerin to a WBA defender when he looses his place.

    6. Sarnab
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      You can't play terry on gw 27 :p

      1. Demí
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Ah yeah, good point

    7. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Nice, could have Lloris also for the double week 28.

      1. Demí
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        True, haven't factored in the double gameweeks yet, need to reassess

    8. Home Run Baker
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Too much risk imo

      Alder seems injury-prone
      Naughton and Bellerin playing time is far from certain.

      Considering there are excellent, cheap, nailed-on options, I would look elsewhere.

      1. The ghost of a Pug's g…
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Agreed

    Interesting read and a poll on what the future holds for our right back position.

  17. Bumbaclot
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    AJ or Punch?

    1. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Puncheon.

      1. zuzuViking

        Really? Not tempted by AJ great fixtures?

  18. uzbeque

    Sorry, lost on previous page:

    On WC

    B) Buy Alderweireld (back next week), play Terry (+0.7 ITB)

    Those with Krul Foster combo, who you going with today. Leaning towards Krul due to having Kane and Hull being absolutely dire.

  22. Ian Davis
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Worth doing Hutton > Muniesa?

    Current defenders: Terry/Bertrand/Bellerin/Baird/Hutton

    1. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Muniesa isn't nailed

  23. Vardy Gras PBFC
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard •• Sanchez •• Downing •• Colback •• Chadli

    No Giroud, so for a hit?

    A. Sanchez out Cazorla in, bench Colback
    B. Downing out Cazorla in, probably means playing Colback assuming Sanchez not risked
    C. Colback out Cazorla in, probably means playing Downing assuming Sanchez not risked

    Currently thinking C.

  24. AGUEROOOOO!!!!!
