Fantasy Flutter – Gameweek 34

Our hopes of besting Paddy this weekend rest in the able hands – and feet – of Liverpool’s mercurial playmaker, Leicester’s imposing centre-back and Tottenham’s talismanic marksman.

Although Philippe Coutinho hasn’t netted in his last five league ties, the Brazilian starlet (17) has attempted seven more shots than Raheem Sterling (10) in the last six Gameweeks and has scored two in three starts in all competitions. Ally this with the fact that the Reds have recorded eight shut-outs in their previous 12 fixtures and we’re willing to take up Paddy’s 15/2 offer on Coutinho to score and Liverpool to keep a clean sheet away to West Brom, parting with £4 in our favourite wager of the week.

Our second bet has us backing Robert Huth to net his second goal in three outings for Leicester City. No Premier League defender has notched as many goal attempts (nine) or penalty box touches (24) as the Stoke City loanee in the last six Gameweeks. With the Foxes facing a Clarets outfit that’s drawn blanks in six of their last seven matches, Paddy’s massive 40/1  odds on Huth to score and Leicester to keep a clean sheet against Burnley is worthy of a £3 investment.

Harry Kane is the target of our final flutter this weekend, as Tottenham Hotspur prepare to lock horns with Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium. The Spurs frontman banished a two-match dry spell last time out against Newcastle United and ranks second among all forwards in terms of goal attempts (eight) in the last two Gameweeks. Kane has tallied a brace or more on five occasions this term and we’re backing him to repeat the feat, placing the remaining £3 on Paddy’s 55/1 offer on Kane to score two or more goals and Tottenham to keep a clean sheet against Southampton.

    Literally all my rivals have taken 8 point hits. I've taken a 4 so far. I have a comfortable lead. Any additional hits worth taking? I want to, because it's fun, but a lack of feasible striker options is holding me back.

    Boyd to Henderson, and bench Kane?? Or Dawson to Terry/Skrtl/Moreno??

    Myhill
    Ivan Schlupp Clyne (Trippier Dawson)
    Hazard (c) Coutinho Sterling Sanchez (Boyd)
    Aguero Kane Vardy
    3.6 in the bank

    A: schmichel + hull def (if so, which one?)
    B: harper + schlupp
    C: sch + schlupp..i.e. double up on lei def

    2) on my fwds (kun def in)
    D: kane + Vardy
    E: kane + Ndyoye
    F: drop kane and go for vardy + ndyoye

    Problem is lack of decent mid options in lei and hull..only if diame was fit

        It is a fairly important one if you support either of those teams

          Well his comment said the not their

          And who "would have thought" implies it is shocking, which wouldnt be the case if you supported either of the two

    Krul
    Clyne - Azpi - Rose
    Hendo - Eriksen - Fab - Hazard
    Murray - Kane - Aguero

    Pants, Boyd, Dawson, Naughton

    1FT, 5,0 itb.

    Eriksen -> Sterling/Coutinho the obvious transfer, but should I still take a hit to do Naughton -> Skrtel? "Never take hit for a defender" some wise men said...

    I am 30 points ahead in my league and already on a 4 point hit. However, I am lacking DGWs, while my rival is on a WC squad.

    I am worried about not having Sterling, should I bring him in for Sanchez only for this week for another 4 point hit? Only Liv player is Hendo.

          You'll want him back next week and he's the kind of player that can score in this fixture.

          Sell him if you want though.

    I've got the luxury of not knowing who to bench out of;

    Bolasie,
    Sanchez,
    Kane, or
    Murray

    Fancy Palace to nail Hull so hovering over Sanchez.

    Anyone any thoughts?

      I fancy Burnley to win today and Chelsea will wrap up the title in midweek.

      I can see the Leicester bubble being abruptly burst this GW.

    Any more rumours about Sterling missing out because of food poisoning? Bib theory suggests he wont start
