We’ve tasked the Sky Blues’ marquee forward, the Red Devils’ reborn midfielder and Liverpool’s fleet-footed playmaker with overhauling Paddy in this week’s iteration of Fantasy Flutter.

Our first wager this week has us eyeing up Sergio Aguero as he pays visit to one of his favourite hunting grounds: White Hart Lane. The Argentinian striker netted seven goals in his previous three starts against Tottenham Hotspur – including a four-goal haul in the reverse fixture – and boasts great form in the league (four goals in three). As such, Paddy’s 12/1 offer on Aguero to score two or more goals and City to keep a clean sheet has tempted us to part with our first £3.

Marouane Fellaini’s resurgence under Louis van Gaal renders the Belgian an enticing target for our second punt. The former Everton stalwart – who’s notched two goals in six starts – has evolved into the focal point of the Red Devils’ attack, chalking up more shots inside the box (six) than any other United midfielder. Considering the Baggies have recorded the fewest away goals (11) in the league this term, Paddy’s 11/2 offer on Fellaini to score and United to keep a clean sheet has us handing over a further £3.

Philippe Coutinho is the subject of our final, and favourite, bet in this round of fixtures. Despite drawing a blank in the last six Gameweeks, no midfielder has fashioned more attempts on target (nine) than the Brazilian starlet over that stretch. Allied with the fact that the Reds recorded shut-outs in nine of their previous 14 outings, Paddy’s 4/1 odds on Coutinho to score and Liverpool to keep a clean sheet  have encouraged us to invest our final £4.

      I have a feeling this is the stage of the season where Sunderland(unfortunately) pull out another Houdini act and survive. I hope Sunderland score.

      Btw, I don't own any Saints...

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

      2. Shifty
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        very possible. they haven't had trouble scoring recently.

        1. MMN
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Neither have Newcastle. And Sunderland haven't been up against good defences.

  13. Nobodinho

    I have a really strong feeling sterling will fire today, but I am letting my head rule my captaincy choice, since I'm ahead of a rival who will likely captain haz and doesn't own sterling.

    Will feel sick if sterling scores a couple!

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      But if he scores a couple, you'll have wrapped up your mini-league. It's a win-win! 😀

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

        Kind of. But I hate being such a wimp haha

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          I'd always advise going with your gut, as it is a game after all. But, Sterling has been crap recently. 😀

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      certainly hope so!

  15. Viper
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Good to go or should I do Silva or Cesc -> Ozil/Ramsey with my FT?

    Panti

    Terry Skrtel Schlupp (PVA, Bruce)

    Hazard (c) Fabregas Silva Sterling (Boyd)

    Aguero Vardy Kane

    2. Nobodinho

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

    Hazard or augero (C)?

  17. Zombie
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Damn you Ruth..You have really made me consider playing Nd'oye and benching Ramsey

    Is that crazy?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Ludicrous, imo.

      From what I've seen of N'Doye, he looks an abysmal finisher.

      1. Zombie
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        What would you say about Ramsey, mate? without comparing to Nd'oye, is he a good option?

        1. Wilshere Knowledge
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          He's playing well, and looks sharp, although I don't like his position on the right. But as Hull are so poor, he'll have plenty opportunity to drift inside.

          1. Zombie
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 10 months ago

            Alright, thanks (although stats don't suggest Hull are so bad defensively 😉 )

            1. Wilshere Knowledge
              • 12 Years
              10 years, 10 months ago

              More to do with the failings of the opposition IMO.

              They retreat too far and leave so much space around the box. False dawn IMO.

              1. Zombie
                • 13 Years
                10 years, 10 months ago

                Cheers mate. Will keep in mind

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGeniusâ…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      No, I am with Ruth on this

      1. Zombie
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Hey good fella, greetings and welcome back 😀

        Ruth suggested playing Nd'oye and benching Ramsey. You think the same?

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

      Start Ramsey, but put your money where your mouth is with a betion ndoye to score.

      Insurance if you like! You'll get a good price

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

        A bet on*

          morning - quick pool

          play Wollscheid (swa) or Alde (sun) and double up on SOT defence?

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

            Tough one. Aldy - better defence

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

            Tough choice that. I'd probably gamble on the double up.
