Veljko Paunovic is not to be envied right now

Play Fantasy Championship on Foontasy, where you can buy players after deadline and loan them for just one gameweek. Also wildcard and 2 free transfers each GW.

Let’s take a look at Dream Team of the season so far

— Curtis Davies, what are you doing here?

— I scored a goal in the first and last gameweek, securing 3 clean sheets in between, sir!

— Well, okay.

LONG-TERM PICKS

Patrick Bauer (Preston, DEF 5.5) — Lilywhites’ centre-back had 2 big chance shots (one was a goal) and 2 clean sheets in 5 games. Decent pick whom I expect a return every 2 games.

Sam McCallum (QPR, DEF 5.0) — back-up left wing-back scored twice… OH NO, he injured his hamstring in EFL Cup and there’s very small chance he’d play. Yoann Barbet at LWB for the same price maybe?

SHORT-TERM PICKS

Conor Hourihane (Sheffield United, MID 8.0) vs. Derby (H) — I see him being finally lined-up in No.10 position (he played CDM the last GW) against the Rams who were deducted 12 points for going under administration and that probably left them demoralised.

Andraz Sporar (Middlesbrough, FW 7.5) vs. Reading (A) without all five senior centre-backs — nothing else to say.
