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.

so…
are many of you still thinking of bringing in kun? if so, when?
and for whom?
I still have him planned for Rooney in GW4 against Watford. What about yourself James??
Hi James. I started with him so hoping he does a number on Chelsea next week before everyone piles on there. His ownership is rising already. Not sure why, but it is.
Cap material NIN? I have him too from the off and will do it if team talk doesn’t talk me away from it.
Might sound like a stupid question, but why is Courtois only banned for one game after his red this weekend? Shouldn’t it be a 3-match ban?
It’s only a 3 match ban it’s dangerous play.
Really? Is that a new rule?
I always thought it was a 3 match ban for a straight red…
So did I but was told it’s only a 3 match ban if it’s considered a dangerous play.
Yaya with the assist or Silva??
Don’t think Silva touched it. Reckon its Yaya goal, Navas assist.
Ye I didn’t think Silva touched it either but would that deflection not make it an own goal??
Didn’t change the balls direction so it might not.
One to be looked at for the FPL team!
Fair enough will have to wait and see.
They’ve given it as you said Yaya goal, Navas assist.
Poor me, I have Sterling.
Silva
Think Silva did touch it a bit…hmmm
Yeah, he did. Just saw a good replay.
Will he get it or will it be an assist.
As if I didn’t captain Yaya!
Where do I get bonus points from? TotalFPL not working
Just look on the official site
I meant for bp’s as they happen?
On the site. Click on a match, then click “detailed stats” in the bottom right. You can see each player’s current BPS there.
Nice one. Cheers
Who’s this Yaya fella? Only 8.5m haven’t seen him in any teams…
Yeah I had him in quite a few drafts as thought he would have a good year. But went with Sterling coz of his decent pre season. Oh well
Weren’t his stats much better if Kun isn’t playing?
They are. But that’s prob distorted coz he’s on pens when Aguero ain’t playing
