→ The 2014/15 season was Sergio Aguero's best ever for Fantasy returns. Seven of his goals/assists and 36 of his FPL points came in two meetings with which club that year? Scout Betting

After Raheem Sterling provided us with a winner last week, we go up against Paddy Power in confident mood this morning. A Leicester out-of-position defender with an eye for goal, Manchester City’s midfield magician and Swansea’s goal scoring hero from last week are all backed this time around.

We begin with the bottom side Leicester and the versatile Jeffrey Schlupp, who again looks set to start on the left of a four-man midfield as the Foxes entertain Crystal Palace. The Ghanaian has already found the net three times this season, and with the hosts having kept clean sheets in two of their last three home matches in all competitions, we’re happy to stick £3 on the 12/1 Paddy are offering on Schlupp to score and Leicester to keep a clean sheet.

After scoring his seventh Premier League goal of the season against Chelsea, a home encounter against Hull brings David Silva onto our radar. City managed to find the net four times when they visited the KC earlier this season, and with the Tigers failing to score in 11 of their last 15 league outings, the 3/1 Paddy are offering on Silva to score and City to keep a clean sheet looks worthy of another £3 investment.

Our final bet comes from the Liberty clash between Swansea and Sunderland. The Swans survived a stern examination by Southampton last week and took all three points thanks to a late strike from Jonjo Shelvey, who is benefitting from playing in “the hole” behind Bafetimbi Gomis as a result of Gylfi Sigurdsson’s suspension. With the hosts having kept five clean sheets at the Liberty this season, all against sides in the bottom half, the 8/1 Paddy are offering on Shelvey to score and Swansea to keep a clean sheet is our bet of the week, taking our final £4.

    Right, last question peeps, I promise! 🙂

    A) Foster, Myhill & Coloccini
    B) Krul, Panti & Wisdom

    A) leaves 0.2m in the bank and an option of Silva -> ADM next week for BUR, swa, SUN

    Terry, Clichy, xxx
    Hazard, Sanchez, Silva, Santi, Oscar

      B...Getting a United player is risky as there is no 1 standout player who is getting the points..and ADM has not quite been getting the points since his Injury Return

      The saddest thing is you're counting the posts every page trying to get the top post. You didn't respond to anyone that offered you advice. You get on my wick with your selfish ways here.

    Does anyone think in 3-4 GWs we would need a Front Line of Aguero // Sturridge // Costa?

      No

      provided they are scoring braces and all the cheap strikers blank..accompanied by plenty of budget midfielders available

      Seriously doubt that. One of the first two will be injured by then.

    Views on this defence/Gk combo. I'm on wild card and I'm happy with my front 8 so no money to spare, so any changes must be like for like cash wise

    Forster Foster
    Terry clichy Bellerin Taylor van aarnolt

    Thanks

      Pants

  6. harry22
    • 13 Years

    Start 1:
    A. Foster (Burnley away)
    B. Krul (Stoke home)

  7. Super-Hans
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Thoughts on Mcmannaman? Cheap, attacking, have great fixtures and a decent match in gw 27. Need a good 5th mid-option....! On a wild card. Please help. Other options are Moses, JWP, Boyd....! But I really like Mcmannaman. Remember him
    as a fun player to watch....

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

      I'd rather have someone like Gil from Villa. Would save you a lot of time when posting RMTs.

      1. Super-Hans
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        He he. Fair point. But villa just don't score goals. And their fixtures are trickier. And so is their gw27...

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

          Yeah, I personally wouldn't want a Pulis attacker, I can't see them scoring many goals.

          1. Super-Hans
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 10 months ago

            So what is you 5th mid of choice?

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

              I have Boyd. If you're looking for someone to cover GW27 then Moses/Walters might work. If you're not willing to spend that much then Ameobi may be a good pick.

              1. Super-Hans
                • 16 Years
                10 years, 10 months ago

                I think I'm going Boyd. Safe, cheap and gives points from time to time..! Cheers, Innsie.

  8. Defcons are for Kinnear
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Defence is

    Krul Panti
    Clyne PVA Hutton Wolly Wisdom

    on a WC and Wisdom rumours are beginning to worry me. What to do about him?

    1. thischarmingman
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      There are Wisdom rumors?

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 10 months ago

        Check hot topic. Apparently no one thinks he should be playing

  9. Buck The Trent
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Start 3 out of these

    A Cahill (avl)
    B Baines (LIV)
    C Baird (bur)
    D Belerin (tot)
    E PVA (swa) - play Panti

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

      ABC

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

      Cahill, Baines, Baird, (Bellerin, PVA) . Bench order VERY important because Cahill and Baird might not play.

  10. Winston.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Which would you choose...

    A. Ivanovic, Clyne, Mane or...
    B. Terry, Alderweireld, Sterling

    Alde back next weekend, no need play him before that.

    Thanks!

  11. Belsunz
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    N Taylor (SUN) or A Wisdom (bur)? Already have Foster in goal. Doubling up on WBA away seems risky...

    1. @FPLMason
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Naylor

  12. simosalminen
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Which one to bench out of (game, CS odds in parentheses)?

    a) Clyne (qpr, 2.25)
    b) Jones (whu, 2.62)
    b) Bellerin (tot, 3.25)
    d) Wisdom (bur, 3.10)

    Currently on Bellerin as the North London derby can be quite a goal fest. Arsenal however has three clean sheets in a row and Bellerin scored in the last game.

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

      Yep, I'd bench Bellerin from that lot

  13. Hamstergod
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Re-post from last page, as I'd like a bit more feedback

    Any thoughts on this WC team?

    Foster, Pantilimon

    Terry, Koscielny, Clyne, Collocini, Van Aanholt

    Oscar, Cazorla, Hazard, Downing, Mane

    Aguero, Kane, Giroud ?

    1. Defcons are for Kinnear
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I'd personally look to upgrade Downing at the expense of a big def or one of Mane and Downing to become a cheapo

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

        Thanks, who would you upgrade to? I can't really think of many options in that range 🙁

        1. Defcons are for Kinnear
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Eriksen, maybe Walcott or Ozil

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

            Thanks, not sure if Tottenham's fixtures warranty a double.

            Walcott or Ozil are great picks, will consider

        2. Takedog1
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Kos for bellerin maybe,

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

            cheers

    2. Ninjaa
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Oscar koscielny mane and downing > silva sterling Bellerin and boyd if that's affordable

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

        Thanks, not really sold on Liverpool's fixtures, will consider the rest. Would you expect Bellerin to be a starter for the remainder of the season?

        1. Ninjaa
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          He's played the last few so you'd expect him to be first choice, but Arsenal do have good back up so could be rotated

  14. HarryS
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    On WC £0.6 in the bank, any help please

    Pantilimon - Hamer
    Zouma - Bellerin - van Aanholt - Wisdom - Clyne
    Haz - Sterling - Cazorla - Mane - Ameobi
    Aguero - Giroud - Kane

    1. Old Schoolᴼˢ “disa…
      • 14 Years

      Dump giroud

    2. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      I'm not sure how long will Hamer remain first choice.

      Besides Amoebi the attack is good.

      Both Zouma and Bellerin is too punty and above all risky

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

      Looks good mate.

      You have decent cover for your riskier defenders, so no worries. 😀

  15. mgilbert86
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    So is the plan for Cuadrado to play the right and oscar and hazard stay in their spots?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Yeah

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

        Right away? Not sure. Harsh on Willian

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 10 months ago

          Can't play CL from memory so PL only for him. Sub role perhaps then his spot if gels well.

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

            Good point. Still not sure he'll chuck him in right from the off though.

            I'd also say why would you spend £22m on a player who isn't nailed - but this is Chelsea!

          2. Ruth_NZ
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 10 months ago

            He is already registered for Chelsea's CL squad.

            Half the stuff written on here is nonsense. That includes the "ineligible for CL" posts.

  16. MMN
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Which is best? 1FT 1.2m ITB

    A) Jones > Clichy

    B) Jones > Azpilecueta

    C) Other

    Panti
    Clyne Wisdom Jones
    Hazard Di maria Puncheon Sanchez
    Aguero Kane Giroud

    4.0, Moses, Bellerin, Wollscheid

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

      C. Hold Jones for next GW.

      Sanchez > Silva

    Can i get a RMWCT

    Panti Krul
    Terry pva bellerin naughton hutton
    adm hazard silva sterling walters
    kun kane giroud

    Things i am not sure about:
    1) No west brom def coverage, foster is the only option so i could get him over panti and avoid the potential sland double up....plus foster only rotates with guzan who is a bit pricey
    2) No arsenal mid...not keen on santi. am more keen on ozil but is that better then silva?
    3) Walters or colback or uber cheap 5th mid? will only need him for gw27 so worth spending the extra cash
    4) contemplating haidara who i think has nailed down the position but newcastle dont have great fixtures.

    1. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Walters to Boyd, PVA to Wisdom, rest is fine.

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

        PVA to Wisdom??

        PVA will get you attacking points and the odd clean sheet, he is underpriced.
        Pulis still tinkering so i wouldnt threat too much bout no West Brom

        1. UnitednationsXI
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

    Panti
    Iva Clichy Dummett
    Hazard(vc) Carzola Silva Steling
    Aguero(c) Kane Giroud

    Lloris Colback Wollschied Bellerin

    Looks good?

  20. Takamba
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Any reason why team sheets go without Baird?

    Can we really see Pulis sticking with the back 4 after last week?

    Fwiw, Guardian has Baird and Pocg starting in full back spots, and Wisdom benched. Weird.

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

      Just wondering the same

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Guardian guess most of the time and are normally wrong.

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

        That is a fair comment TM, but they also usually play it quite safe. Which is why I found it odd.

    3. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      That makes me feel more confident about Wisdom. The Guardian are woeful

    4. Gregor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 10 months ago

      Three clean sheets before that and it was the goalkeeper who stank the place out.

  21. Bellerinmondo
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 10 months ago

    Predictions on west brom defence line up this week?
    Any chance both wisdom and Baird could not play leaving me with only 2 playing defenders?

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

      Ha, see above!

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

        Wait and see I guess!

    Final thoughts lads?

    Krul
    Terry, PvA, Wisdom
    ADM, Sterling, Hazard, Sanchez
    Aguero (C), Kane, Giroud

    Panti | Boyd, Wasi, Bertrand

    Boyd (WBA) or Wasi (CRY) first sub?

    1. President John F. Keninnsie

      Boyd IMO. Solid team Nick.

    3.7 bank so I can bring back Sanchez for Caz. I've also left a little bit of cash to do Silva -> Fabregas and Sterling -> Eriksen in GM28 without major surgery.
