Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 18 – Fantasy Premier League 2014/15
GW18 is live! We hope you were happy with your Christmas presents and that the turkey and trimmings went down well but that’s all over now and so back to the serious business of fantasy football! Hopefully your transfers, line-ups and your all important captain selection are all sorted and you didn’t over indulge in the festive period and do anything daft like take a huge hit or indeed just forget altogether! Live Match Chat is your chance to have your say on the line-ups as they are announced, the games as they happen and the fallout afterwards. Boxing Day is indeed a bumper day with all 20 teams playing so no sooner has it begun than it will end and is unique in the season in that respect. We think. Couldn’t be bothered to check! We begin with an early game as Chelsea welcome West Ham. There are then a hectic eight games at 3pm before Arsenal and QPR see us out in the early evening.
The Boxing Day bonanza in full…
Chelsea v West Ham 12.45pm
Burnley v Liverpool 3pm
Crystal Palace v Southampton 3pm
Everton v Stoke 3pm
Leicester v Spurs 3pm
Man Utd v Newcastle 3pm
Sunderland v Hull 3pm
Swansea v Aston Villa 3pm
West Brom v Man City 3pm
Arsenal v QPR 5.45pm
Keep track of all the action, the goals, the talking points, right here at FF247 Live Match Chat, an interactive chat which encourages you to keep involved and share your thoughts and emotions as the matches take place.
Good luck to absolutely everyone for GW18 from all at FF247!
Firstly, to the guys (& ladies?) who run this site: Thanks so much for all you do!
Second, any chance there are plans for an article on likely players to be rotated? I feel like that sort of article would be super helpful to folks like myself that would only be guessing at it.
Hope everyone’s GW went well! Can I get a quick 2nd opinion please? Got 2 FT and would like to improve the defense… Thanks in advance for your infinite wisdom.
1. Chambers + Yaya to Zabaleta and Silva?
2. Clyne + Yaya to Zabaleta and Silva?
3. One of above two transfers with Chelsea defender instead of Zab?
Guzan (Pantilimon)
Clyne Chambers NTaylor (Wisdom Bruce)
Hazard Sanchez Yaya Downing (Wanyama)
Costa Rooney Austin
If you’re fixed on these two options, then Option 1, else Azpilicueta is cheaper than Zabaleta and is doing very well. Cheers
My preference to City is due to the next 3 out of 4 being at home rather than Chelsea which I believe is the opposite. I would likely go for Azpi though if I do go Chelsea. Not willing to take the risk on JT being rotated with the fixture pile up.
Anyone else care to weigh in please and thanks?
I would go option 1. City defenders are always open to rotation but was Zab was rested today he should start on Sunday. Clyne less likely for rotation than chambers so I would keep him.
Cheers for the advice. I agree that Zab should be playing at the weekend considering his rest today. Clyne’s absolutely nailed on but does have horrible fixtures!
-4 point hits are quite profitable if managed well – took a hit to get in Silva and Ward-Prowse and their total return was 38 points (captained Silva) :+)
Pass on your crystal ball (at least on JWP)! Well done.
Arsenal victory got won my accumalotor and then this
Nice one!
thought I’d cracked 100 too, but it wasn’t to be, thanks to the sick BPs Gods… 😉 well done mate. :thumbup:
great score mate
Cheers lads
What do people thing of skrtal as a replacement for baines?
Can’t trust them Shane
What’s the thoughts on getting Sanchez now? Murdering me but fixtures tough n it seems ti be the smaller teams he hurts?
Hi Dreamers, I’ve only really seen Sanchez in highlight format so far for one reason or another but caught the whole game tonight. He’s different apples. Pure class. He’s not the top points scorer by accident and that score tonight could have nearly double had he not missed the pen (extra 5, no -2, extra bonus etc). I’d save yourself the weekly heartache and just bite mate.
Cheers Init. How u get on today?
Did ok mate, despite 2 odd transfers (Silva for Yaya, that worked and Giroud which obviously didn’t!). Got 83 I think it was. Or 82. Not sure now. Anyway yeah I’ll take it!
I second that. He’s got potential to gain points against anyone with the combination of a ferocious work rate, intelligence and skill.
Pity hes shit at penalties tho..
