Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 1 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16
GW1 is live! What better way to kick off the season than with a lunch time match up with 4th place implications written all over it. United will look to secure an early 3 point advantage over perennial Europa League participators, but non-contenders to win, Spurs. At 3pm we have 4 games on the menu. Recently promoted Bournemouth carry the hopes and dreams of many FPL investors as they take on Sherwood and the Benteke-less eleven. In another game that features a recently promoted side, Watford travel to Goodison Park where Everton will be playing for the only 3 points they stand a chance of winning until Christmas. In an early relegation battle we see the Foxes welcome the Black Kitties from Sunderland. If that wasn’t enough of a preview of the probable bottom of the table this season in the 3pm games, we add the also promoted Canaries to the fray, who play host to the Liverpool dream killers, Crystal Palace. In the last game of the day, Chelsea will look to continue taking the manhood away from Swansea as they look to humiliate the Swans with another pasting similar to those of last season.
On Sunday we have three fixtures. Arsenal will look to impress and have all Gooners excited and proclaiming them Champions after week one. Saints (the Liverpool B team) will travel to Newcastle and hope to make their mother club proud, with an away win. Speaking of mother, Liverpool will travel to Stoke where they look to exorcise their demons and by that I mean the memory of Glen Johnson.
The game-week finishes off with the Baggies looking to stop the vaunted City attack with a taller, wider custom made bus. Can’t wait to see the twitterverse explode about Sterling and proclaim the investment on him a complete failure or success based on one half.
Don’t forget to also share any experiences if you are participating in any or several of the fanteam.com leagues. Remember scores update in real time, so don’t be shy and let us know how much you are in line to win.

I may save the FT 0.5m Bank
I will probably keep the Arsenal double up in midfield for one last week seeing as it’s Crystal Palace and City have Chelsea! Or I could Walcott – Payet
I think it’s pretty much good to go for GW2 apart from Wilson perhaps but I could just play Wanyama or Huth instead.
I could Wilson – Zarate or Wanyama – Albrighton
Suggestions please
I got a feeling Wally will def. start the next game. Giroud messed up, Wally would’ve banged in 1 or 2 goals for sure.
Thanks Raziel – hold the transfer then and just switch the formation! I hope you had an ok GW1 mate.
Have a similar team to yours and I’m actually not feeling that bad. In your case, you have a better bench even. I have Wanyama, Schwarzer, S Taylor and ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm shit…… aaaah yes Soares (whom I fear will lose his spot).
Raz
I don’t think so. That was a ‘safety first’ substitution today because of his booking.
Got a feeling the biggest mistakes came from the other defenders, not him. Owwwwwwwwwwww shit, did I say Soares? You think I meant Cedric, mister I like to pick up yellow cards. You’re right, he was pulled out because of the yellow and he seems to like to grab those a lot. Shite. Anyway. I actually meant Coates. I have my team posted below. :dance:
Ripcurl
I’d certainly give some consideration to the Wilson to Zarate move.
Could be a nice little punt considering the fixtures!
I’m in no rush!
Friendly reminder not to activate your wildcard! Everyone had a bad week, 2/3 happen during the season just a shock being this early this year.
You’ve built a team for a few game weeks (I hope) so stick by your guns and avoid wild carding this week, you’ll be thankful later on in the season!
Wise words indeed Rambo.
Should Virgil van Dijk go to Soton or to Everton? I personally prefer Soton, Everton is a bit of a hot/cold team for me.
By the way, I have Coates. You guys think he will be dropped? Or will it be Kaboul?
Aaaah yes, this is my team for the next GW. I think it’s solid. Should I make any changes? Only real doubts are Wally and the defense.
Another doubt next week. Who to cap? Maybe Benteke? He was invisible today though.
It’s a nice fixture but I wouldn’t risk capping Benteke just yet. Might go for Defoe.
Early doors but I like Rooneys chances at Villa.
Yeah, should I worry about my defenders though? Coates might be dropped? Cedric being subbed at halftime and so on. Oww shit. Way too early for this. Sorry. Thanks guys.
Rooney loves Villa 😉
If you’re lucky either Koeman or Advocaat will go all LVG and break the news in the presser’s, like you say though mate early to tell.
Make sure its the right choice if you wanna catch me
.
Walcott? Are people going to hold for another week?
Fabregas? Not on set pieces it would seem, really limits his appeal.
Holding Wally but I was disappointed that he didn’t start, especially given that Sanchez wasn’t going to make the starting eleven.
Fabregas looked a yard off the pace but I’m hoping he’ll improve as he gets fitter.
Dear PP….
Next time go with your gut!!
Next time dont take Gomez out last minute for Mings…
Oh and don’t worry… Even though you are currently even with the Average in your cash H2H you will beat it since Aguero will score a hatty tomorrow night…
