Our duel with Paddy this week has us investing faith in Chelsea’s stand-in striker, Arsenal’s Chilean livewire and Manchester United’s Spanish playmaker.

With Diego Costa out of contention for the time being, it falls upon Loic Remy to shoulder the goal scoring responsibility for Chelsea. The French marksman has taken up the mantle in the Blues’ last two fixtures, bagging the winners against Hull City and Stoke City. Couple this with the fact that Jose Mourinho’s men have recorded shut-outs in five of their last nine home clashes and we’re willing to take up Paddy’s 9/1 odds on Remy to score two or more goals and Chelsea to keep a clean sheet and part with our first £3.

Our second, and favourite, wager of the week takes us across the capital to North London. Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez rifled a 20-yard strike past the flailing arms of Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet last Gameweek and looks primed to keep Burnley’s rearguard busy when the Gunners travel to Turf Moor this evening. Considering that the Clarets have netted just one goal in their previous five outings, we’re swayed by Paddy’s 12/1 offer on Sanchez to score two ore more goals and Arsenal to keep a clean sheet, parting with another £4.

The Manchester derby is the destination of our final bet, with Red Devils midfielder Juan Mata piquing our interest in light of his brace against Liverpool in Gameweek 30. Manchester City’s defence has been breached in every one of their last seven road matches, while United have recorded three shut-outs in their last five. All things considered, Paddy’s 10/1 offer on Mata to score and Manchester United to keep a clean sheet looks like a fine source of investment for our remaining £3.

    1. Drop to bench 1 of Silva, Siggy, Mane
    2. Captain Hazard, Sanchez, Giroud, Kane

    1. preseasonblues

      1. Bold part of me says Silva, but would probably go for Siggy.
      2. Hazard for me

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Mane and Kane

    After successfully doing Aguero > Benteke (c) last week this week I am also going with the maverick move as recommended by Jonty in the scoutcast this week which is get Remy in and captain him 😎

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Sweet....

    2. Gamoriola of the Galaxy (Eu…
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Hmm. This is an annoying distraction. I just brought Remy in but have Kane (c). Very tempted but I was all settled. Grrr.

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

        If Leading then Kane the better option but if chasing Remy is the risk/reward option

        1. Gamoriola of the Galaxy (Eu…
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Yup. You're right, but still annoying. 🙂

  6. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Who ya captain?

    1. preseasonblues
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Hazard

    2. Art Vandelay
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Sturridge at the moment but 70% chance I bottle it and go with Kane.

    3. Skokym
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Kane ATM

    4. Sunny 😎

      Who do you think

        This 😎

          Not to forget, green behind them 😆

          1. Jafooli
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Green for Go(als)

  7. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Bellerin at risk with Debuchy back?

    1. preseasonblues
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Likely, but no reason that Debuchy walks right back in, Bellerin more than deserves the spot. Imagine Debuchy will start getting minutes to get him back to fitness though

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Debuchy at risk, his replacement has been found.

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

        My concern as an owner is that Bellerin has played a lot of games for someone so young. Wenger now has a very decent alternative so I expect some rotation.

        I'll be starting PVA over Belly this week for this reason

        1. kalmoffit
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          I'll be selling him myself, as I'd prefer the other Arsenal for dgw. He's a fine player though.

    3. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Would imagine so

  8. preseasonblues
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    I've been brave this week... few punts and some finger crossing. Good luck to everyone.

    Myhill
    Terry Clyne Baines
    Hazard (c) Eriksen Mane Downing
    Rooney Remy Giroud

    (Krul Schlupp Bellerin Phillips)

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

      I still have Downing too unfortunately, always more pressing issues which stop me getting rid of him

      1. preseasonblues
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah, couldn't bring myself to get rid of him when I should have due to the value I had made from him, and as you say, not other bits and and pieces always seem more urgent. Time for him to reward us with a goal!

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years

      Austin -> Remy
      Fellaini -> Hendo/Sterling/Coutinho

      1. John Nerdelbaum
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        I like that

      2. Pat Bonner
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers but happy to get Liverpool mids on wc. If I get them this week I have to play Boyd gw33, plus I fancy fellaini against City

        1. S.Kuqi
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          You have 2 FTs get someone like Coutinho this week and transfer him out for gw33 and then use your wc in gw34 and get him bakc if you want

          1. Pat Bonner
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Could pay off but might just keep fellaini then have 2 transfers on punts like yaya or baines in gw33

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

          Just Remy I reckon

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

      Just Austin -> Remy

      1. Pat Bonner

    1. Breedy

    2. Patty

    Captain Giroud anyone?

    1. Beard of Zeus
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Considering the same. Will probably bottle it and stick it on Hazard or Kane last minute.

    2. kalmoffit
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Could be a good move.

    3. Ninjaa

      Seriously considering, others around me in mini league don't have him so it makes sense for me. No real stand out captain this week

    Which defender to leave out

    Terry, Bellerin, n.taylor, Bertrand? Tough call

      Bellerin

    If Hull don't start by beating Southampton, they'll be in trouble. 0-1 for me.

      • 13 Years

      Would be disaster for me.

        Have two Soton defs and going to bet heavily them to win

        1. kalmoffit
          • 12 Years

          It's a game Hull have got to win. For Soton it hardly matters

    Bench which one?

    One of:
    Ivan - Fonte - Bertrand - Bellerín

    or go for 4 defender system and bench Berahino

      Fonte; play Berahino
