We target a trio of players who all found the net in the previous Gameweek in our attempt to get the better of Paddy this weekend.

Our first match is at St James’ Park as out-of-sorts Newcastle prepare for the visit of Hull City. The Magpies have now conceded three times in each of their last two league matches and their porous defence looks there for the taking – having scored on his debut, we’re backing Abel Hernandez to heap further misery on Alan Pardew later today. With Paddy offering 11/1 on the Uruguayan to score two or more goals and for the Tigers to keep a clean sheet, we’re willing to throw £3 their way.

Next up we head to the King Power Stadium, as Louis van Gaal’s United attempt to maintain the momentum gained from last weekend’s win over QPR. The Red Devils have now served up a shut-out in each of their last two league fixtures, and with Paddy offering 11/2 on Angel di Maria to score and for the visitors to keep a clean sheet, we’re willing to stick another £3 on this one.

Our final bet is kept for White Hart Lane, where Spurs are set to welcome struggling West Brom. Nacer Chadli’s strike at Sunderland took his tally to three goals in as many appearances, and with Paddy willing to offer 11/2 on the Belgian to score and Tottenham to pick up a clean sheet, we’re making this our bet of the week and shelling out our final £4.

    who to bench: naismith chadle or siggy???

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

      I benched naismith
      Lamela and sig to play

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

      I'd go Siggy, they play the best defence

  2. Randell
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Siggurdson captain ?

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

      no

  3. Nice to Finally Michu
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    A) Moreno (or any defender for 5.8 or less) and Rooney
    B) Adebayor and Fabregas/Di Maria

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

      a

  4. Shifty
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Does Adebayor have the form to warrant the armband?

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

      According to the stats yes

      I'm on him myself and trying to stay brave

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

        What stats stick out for you? Point me in the right direction 🙂 I know about the WBA defensive stats, but his attacking output?

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

          See captains article

    2. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Does he have the hairstyle to warrant the armband?...no, pick someone who does

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

        That's Rooney out of it then

        1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Exactly

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

        Chamakh fit?

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

          Top of the poll

    3. Phaze 1
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      vs this team, on paper he looks good. Problem is Ade always has that DAD factor that will always haunt him.

  5. Phaze 1
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Eriksen (C) looks good this week right?

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

      He loves WBA

    2. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Does it?

    3. Saniul
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I have Eriksen as well, but I think he is a differential anyway, no need to captain.

      As for captaincy, I'm still between Rooney and Sterling. Don't have Sigurdsson in team.

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

        The C poll is so open this week seems like one of the few chances we'll get for a flare pick. I'd back Rooney if those were my choices

    4. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Differential Captains are rarely a good idea but RMT rates him highly so good luck

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

        tx

  6. gunner1994
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Play three out of: Vlaar, Terry, Clyne and Duff?

    1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Drop Vlaar

  7. baraka1670
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Finally given the armband to Falcao
    Is it a huge risk or there is a possibility he starts???

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

      huge risk, next week would be better

  8. No Arsene Around
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Would anyone bring in Eriksen for free over Ramsey/Siggy/Sterling/Fab, wildcarding next week

    1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Nope

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

      Over all of them yes

      Fab unless you lose money

    3. Phaze 1
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Maybe go 5 in MF when you W/C next week. I'd prob have him over all 4 this week.

    4. Fabreghastly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Seeing as you'll be WCing it's worth a punt if you fancy it

      1. CarelessGenius©

        I can see that happening.

      *switches armband to Balotelli

      1. jai1212
        • 11 Years

        Liverpool will not take any risk in PL. Everyone will play their best game, can see that result happening

        United won't let that much goals :p
        Spurs will score more

      2. Spoox777
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Everton 4 Palace 1

        lol.. Don't think so. Palace are a better team than that.

    4. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Law of averages suggest that Burnley won't go 3 games in a row without a goal and QPR won't go 5 games scoring just once in total.

      Both those results you posted may happen, but I'd expect the mathematical probability actually favours both of those teams, at home, to score today.

  10. CarelessGenius©
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Rooney always to start after what LvG said about his captain?

    1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
      • 14 Years

      The guy below you...wants us to ignore your post...sorry

      1. Tommytour

      2. CarelessGenius©

        1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 2 months ago

          But Rooney should be pretty nailed, unless theres like a fallout in the dressing room or something

  11. Nice to Finally Michu
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Ignore the post above.

    A) Moreno/defender for 5.8 and Rooney
    B) Baines and Debtor

    1) Fabregas
    2 Di Maria

    1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)

      (C) Baines last GW would have been great but not if you missed out on Costa......it's all a bit relative.

      1. Saniul

        Three clean sheets in four games.

        that is all.

      2. Venom Snake
        • 12 Years

      UFPL captain here

  16. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Nothing like owning Baines 😎 .. gives you another attacker to cheer on instead of just 7... (though ivanovic owners must have the same feeling)

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

      Joined the B-O-C last night.

      Couldn't justify buying him at £7m, but felt OK at £6.9m. Go figure..

  17. Nomar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Green
    Baines, Van Aanholt, Hutton
    Fabs, Sterling, Siggy, Rambo
    Austin, Costa (c), Rooney

    Bench: Krul, Marney, Wilson, Dawson

    Bank: £1.6m

    Still got 1 FT left (did Debuchy to Baines last night). Any other changes to make this week or save tranny for next week?

    1. Nabs Kebabs
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      save. wilson ahead of hutton imo

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

        Dare I drop Hutton again though?

    2. King Kohli
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Start Wilson over Hutton. More chances of a cleanie imo

    3. Tommytour
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping the faith?

      Austin > Welbeck

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

        Yeah, fancy him to notch today though.

        They'll be up for it and our fans will certainly be (Hughes playing the role of pantomime villain).

        Was considering changing him to Ulloa or Pelle in a bit but I do think he's going to find his feet and be a good 3rd cheap striker in this league.

    4. MagnetBPS
      • 12 Years

      Captain Rooney!

    Has anyone seen any bib theory regarding a Falcao start at Leicester?

    1. EAGLES (0 Chelsea players)

      Bib theory only applies to Liverpool

  21. BlueIncognito

    Any last minute transfers?

    Krul (Myhill)
    Duff Rose Moreno (Clyne Wisdom)
    Sterling Fabregas Ramsey Siggy (Cattermole)

    Never had so much trouble picking a captain!

    Who would you choose?

    Costa
    Siggy
    Sterling
    Di Maria
    Balo

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

      Costa

    2. CarelessGenius©
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Costa out of that lot.

    3. TokyoRed 東京赤
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Di Maria

    4. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Just keep it on Costa all season or until he gets injured.

      At current rate the guys a threat to break Dixie Dean's record!

  26. tom4s
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    siggy or sterling as capt? or maybe a baines gamble?

  27. CarelessGenius©
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Have both Fab & Haz, but tempted to trade in Haz. Stick or twist?
    Some nice play last week but he ain't getting the points.....

  28. Venom Snake

    Who has the worse defence, WBrom or WHam?

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

      Brom

  29. Sz21
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    DDG,
    Clyne, Coloccini, Naylor
    Lamela (v), Sigurdsson, Sterling, Ramsey,
    Welbeck, Rooney (c), Costa

    Subs. Gilks, Marney, Cahill, Wisdom

    1.8m, 1 ft

    1. Cahill out for Rose and drop Colo to the bench.
    2. Save and go with what I have now with 2ft's next GW

  30. Fabreghastly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Play Coloccini or Clyne?

    Clyne seems logical but Paddy Power has Newcastle CS odds at 6/4 and I fancy Swansea to score against Soton (Siggy brace ;-))

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

      Clyne Newcastke are pants

    2. CarelessGenius©
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I feel Newcy might play out a dour 0-0 with Hull.

    3. Tommytour
      • 15 Years

      Clyne Newcastle are pants

    4. Lucky boy

      Id go with coloccini
