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.

Good luck to absolutely everyone for GW1 from all at FF247!
did Henessey start for Palace?
i have got Cortouis who messed up big time.
also whom to start among these?
francis oxford or coates?
cheers guys
saving my FT even if Henessey doesn,t start.
No, McCarthy did.
I would start Oxford despite playing Leicester who looked very attacking at the weekend.
Francis against Liverpool would be my punt because Liverpool were poor in my opinion on Sunday.
Have Coates myself, not fancying Sunderland much which is a shame because of their fixtures.
+1
SOme more worrying information. Dick Advocaat said he won’t play 4-3-3 against, so Defoe won’t be lone striker, which is site.
I think Dick Advocaat will fix that defence.
That could help Defoe don’t you think he can now score goals and chip in with some assists.
Just hope my man Coates will still be in there.
True matt, it could help Defoe. Just hope it does, I just don’t want to see him act as a winger/back like late last season.
Ye that’s what Los Machos just said on a different thread and if he does end up out wide supporting Fletcher or someone then ill be shipping him out.
McCarthy started over Henessey. Francis, Oxford and Coates started. Though, this is all stuff you can see if you enter the website. >.<
No Raz he wants to know who to start out of those 3 and I’d say Oxford to start nishant.
Jenkinson didn’t play because it was versus his parent team, I think Oxford could get games but Jenkinson should be first choice.
Oxford played CDM not RB.
thanks guys for all your response
looks like i will flip a coin between Francis and Oxford
Just spotted there, being on the laptop, the ‘Hot Comments’ section. Cheers for putting it up there FF247 team, just something I enjoy doing!
Hey everybody! Strange gameweek, so far my bench has 22 points, my starting 11 have 21! Luckily got Gomez coming on for Bellerin, Mcarthy coming on for Hennesy, and Sterling still to play.
Just wondering, what are people planning to do or recommend doing with Wilson? Did he have any chances? Unsure whether to play him away to Pool, play a defender over him (all 5 have a decent fixture or are Ivanovic) or transfer him for Defoe, Deeney, Ighalo or Zarate
Wilson, Bellerin, Wanyama would be my bench if I had your team!
Save your FT no need to panic just yet, give Wilson at least until GW4 at home to Leicester before you boot him out.
I’d play Gomez ahead of him, Oxford first sub, Wilson 2nd sub.
Just seen West Brom have signed Rondon. Could this be the end of Berahino or is it just rotation for Lambert? I think he’ll be 6 m everyone else??
Very good signing for WBA. Could well mean Berahino is on his way.
That’s what im thinking. Could be worth a place when their fixtures ease up.
Rondon is a beast on fifa.
Pls don’t wildcard Guys look at number of transfers happening.. Salodon has moved to West Brim Shaqiri is now arrived at Stoke there are talks of Berahinho to Spurs Benzema to Arsenal and Kane to United. I m sure u will want to see things out in next gws and wait at least till transfer window closes.
I wouldn’t mind a bit of Shaqiri or Benzema
+1 Avengers you’re 100% right mate no need to WC so early.
LOL @ Stoke. Saw some Barca moves by Afellay at Stoke yesterday. Not used to see shit like that from that team. 😉
Chelsea have decided to appeal Courtois’ red card.
Really don’t see that one working out! Will this mean his suspension will extend because of a failed appeal??
Nah, it’s the suspension will either stand or be revoked. I’m 99% sure it’s gonna stand.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STERLING. My differential in my Dutch League. Ranked 11th now, I don’t like that ranking.
Ye I’m 99.99% sure it’ll stand hahah
