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.

    Is it worth to sell Foster for a hit ?

    2FTs

    Foster -> Mignolet
    Austin -> Murray

    Good transfers?

      do you have a playing keeper next gw?

      1. Nolberto Solano
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Yeh got Myhill

  4. chamakhmybitchup
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Bench 1 : Terry, Clyne, Bert, Bellerin

    Bench 1 : Mane, Hendo, SIggy

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Bellerin, siggy

    2. SomewhatPleasing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      The Migs move would seem sound, a nice double and reasonable fixtures to follow.

      Murray is a fair punt at that price range

      1. SomewhatPleasing
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Excellent reply fail - Good start to the morning.

        1. Nolberto Solano
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Haha. Thanks for the reply, even though it was on the wrong thread

  5. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    My 4 wishes for today:

    1.Panti saves a Glenn Murray peno
    2.Leicester score against WBA
    3.Sanchez continues his return to form
    4.Mane actually starts this week

    That is all.

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

    A keep eriksen for the next two (and get hendo for the double)

    B get hendo now and play boyd next week

    have kane (c)

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      A

    2. SomewhatPleasing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      If you're sat on 2 free and nothing more pressing then ok. If not then A

    3. Kevtheotter
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I did b

  7. Point Magnets
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Captain

    A. Kane
    B. Hazard
    C. Sanchez

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

      I am going for A

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      B

    3. Ten Season Wonder
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I'm in the same boat

    4. Samurai Blue
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      A

    5. Bring Back Rutger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      All good choices.

      I'm going Kane, but only because my ML rival doesn't have Sanchez so I'll be up points if he performs well anyway.

      If we both had Sanchez, I'd be very tempted to slap the armband on him as a differential.

    6. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Was on A
      Changed to B yesterday

    7. SomewhatPleasing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Totally down to you that call, who knows?

      I'm looking to protect so going A.

      It's hard to keep the nagging inner voice quiet that wants me to give it to Remy

    8. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      A

      1. Point Magnets
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        So tough.. im chasing. 30pts behind.

        Rival will have Hazard or Kane and has put Remy in also..

        What do i do?

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

          Captain Remy

  8. Bring Back Rutger
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    I've got two free transfers but can't see any obvious changes.

    I'm planning to wildcard for GW34 so it'd be a short term punt anyway.

    Looking at doing one transfer this week with Giroud and Sanchez most likely to go in GW33.

    Myhill (Krul)
    Terry Dawson Fonte (PVA Naughton)
    Hazard Sanchez Eriksen Mane (Boyd)
    Giroud Aguero Kane

    0.5 ITB

    I fancied Naughton out for Dann as he has a good fixture next week when my other defenders have tougher games, but I'm 0.1 off!

    Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

    1. JogaSemmedo
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Schlupp or Morgan perhaps with the DGW in mind too.

      1. Bring Back Rutger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers. Jeffrey could be an option, though I could always get him on the wildcard. I'm thinking I might bring in Toby and benching Dawson. I reckon SOT are a better chance of a cleanie than WBA and I've already got Myhill anyway.

        1. JogaSemmedo
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Sorry missed you had a WC still. For a defensive punt Toby & Soton double up is definitely the way to go!

  9. PKB
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    RP:
    Anyone reckons Kosc will play? or I will have to ship him out for a hit, as have Naughton and Baird as subs!

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

      Might be worth a hit actually, you'll need to do it next week anyway to field 11 so might as well do it now

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

        Get Ivan?

      2. Snapes on a Plane
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Did kosc >terry anyways had to do it next week

    2. Roysgotnoboys
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I'm wondering the same, have Zouma on the bench who will probably not play either, worth the -4 to buy Alderweireld?

  10. agueroooooney
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Please help... Bench one

    Haz - Silva - Sanchez - Mané - Downing

    Kane - Sakho - Murray

    Thanks

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

      Sakho or downing

    2. Bring Back Rutger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I'd bench Downing

    3. agueroooooney
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Thanks, have downing on the bench at the minute... tempted to bench Silva though

  11. Niz Super X1
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Going with Sturridge (c) Feeling confident..

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

      I am going with him too, although I am tempted to switch to Hazard. Last week's "beach" performance from Spurs putting me off Kane and I still have Eriksen too.

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

        Would avoid Hull defenders to be honest.

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

          Amazing reply fail to Pundti's post below.

      2. Niz Super X1
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        There should be at least 3-4 goals in that game on Monday night.

  12. Nolberto Solano
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Who to Bench?

    A) Silva (mun a)
    B) Punch (sun a)

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

      Punch

  13. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Punch or Erik to Hendo?

    Still can field 11 next week.

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

      Punch is a great option, keep!

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

        Cheers

  14. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Is a Hull or a Leicester defender worth it for the DGW?

    Need an 4m def and looking at Bruce and Upson. Or go safe with Duff?

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

      Schlupp looks the best option for his attacking potential.

    2. Samurai Blue
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Schlupp and McGregor.

    3. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Can't afford Schlupp unfortunately. 🙁

  15. Do I Not Like Orange
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Any of this lot you'd bench for Moreno?

    Ivan/Toby/Fonte
    Eriksen/Haz/Sanchez/Silva
    Kun/Austin/Kane

    1. Bring Back Rutger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Good question. Maybe bench Toby? It's tough.

  16. Snapes on a Plane
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    60 points behinds my mini league leader!
    Whom to captain ?
    A) KANE
    B) HAZZARD

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

      Its a coin toss so try and predict who he will captain and do the other if doing catch up

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

    The evidence is mounting in the favour of you know who.....

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

      Sssshhhh, we don't want him to send his Death Eaters after us 😯

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

        😯 😛

  18. Raddy
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Play eriksen or puncheon? I know eriksen is the obvious choice... But he is really boring me.

  19. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    got remy in when my gut was saying murray.......... this will end badly 😕

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

      Nah Remy has looked superb all season.....

    2. Gargamel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Gut feeling is overrated, you'll be fine

    3. Raddy
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I got Murray in when my gut was saying Remy. Time will tell which of us has the more predictive gut.

    4. Somalion
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      If it is any consolation, I went for Murray so it will end wonderfully for me if your gut is right. 😉

      1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        booourns.... im such a coward

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

          Meh, I can understand getting Remy tbh, I just wasn't really arsed purely because I'm never sure how players will do returning to their old teams. You should be fine!

    5. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I think Murray has had his day - he's a marked man now so it won't be so easy for him to get goals

  20. Brian (Not the Messiah)
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Is Morgan a reasonable alternative to Schlupp?

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

      Not really IMO. Schlupp whips in some lovely crosses and can be OOP.

    2. Gargamel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      If you really really want a Leicester defender then yes

  21. Big Bad Barry
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Final team signing off now and praying for an Austin goal.

    Panti
    Bertrand Lescott Bellerin
    Hazard Fabergas Sterling Silva
    Kane Aguero Austin

    Lloris Ki Terry Williams

    Good Luck Everyone!

  23. jfxm
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    -8 Hazard Murray Mignolet in for Eriksen, Benteke, Lloris?

    It is too much?

    1. Chenku╰☆╮
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      not if it pays off. always a risk.

    2. Bring Back Rutger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I like it! Good luck!

  24. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Benching PVA (CRY) is right move, right?

    Playing Terry (qpr), Fonte (HUL) and Jenkinson (STK).

    1. Bring Back Rutger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Yes. I reckon you're right

  25. Tatty Bojangles
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Best Liverpool defender to pick for their DGW?

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

      Skrtel as I think Moreno is a slight rotation risk.

    2. copps
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      skrtel, he's guaranteed to play all the games

      1. Tatty Bojangles
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Skrtl red flagged at the moment though?

  26. Boss Hogg
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Silva, Mane, Puncheon, Hazard, Sanchez
    Kane, Aguero, Murray

    a. Bench one
    b. Captain one

    Thanks!

    1. Gargamel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Bench Puncheon, captain Hazard imo

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

    Anyone read that tweet just now? That changes things.....

    1. copps

    2. Somalion

      Agreed, no Balotelli is a massive loss.

    3. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I quite fancy Ibe - could be a nice differential for the DGW

  28. JogaSemmedo
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Those without Aguero, anyone planning on bringing him back for GW 33?

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

      a lot will be, definitely. not many options that week

      1. JogaSemmedo
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 11 months ago

        This is what I'm thinking not many options. Adds to the dgw headache in 34 too with Sturridge an option too.

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

      No but possibly after GW34

  29. davies
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Anybody think Sanchez will be rested?

    1. boc610
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      not this again

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

      Not now. I think he got his rest by playing 3 or 4 games at 97% instead of the usual 100

  30. Chenku╰☆╮
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Play Williams (Eve H) or Dawson (Lei H)?

    1. Kashem Ahmed
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Davis or Bellerin?
