Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 2 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16
GW2 is live! This time we are treated to a rarity, a Friday night game. As the Villans welcome in the vaunted Man United attack. However the Red Devils will be missing a key player and we will see what LVG does to offset not having Kyle Walker on the pitch.
If a Friday game wasn’t enough, we are handed a lunch time game between Saints and Everton to kick off our Saturday. Hopefully both teams once again entertain us with goals and bad defending. And please bring on Naismith earlier, the non-Everton fans demand it. Our opening fixture is followed by five 3pm games. The Stokies visit Spurs, a meeting of two sides that will feel hard done to have come away with no points in GW1. In other action Sunderland welcome in Norwich, a match that has everyone very (yawn) excited. Newcastle go to Wales for a match-up with a Swans team that took the game to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. We also see Watford watch the Baggies ride their broken down bus in, after suffering a proper beat down at the hands of the Citizens. The Hammers open their doors to a Leicester team that look really menacing on the attack and in the casino. James Vardy and best mate Okazaki will look to continue to strike fear into defences.
On Sunday we have two fixtures. Pardew will look to continue the good times rolling vs an Arsenal side that is 3 points behind their pace from last season. Strange that, considering they have Petr Cech and he should be worth 12-15 points, maybe it was less, not more? Moving on to the game of the week, well on paper at least. As the most impressive side of GW1, Man City, look for a statement of intent win when they face Jose and a Chelsea side that showed some vulnerabilities on defence.
Monday night sees the game-week come to a conclusion. As Bournemouth makes a trip to Merseyside. Will the Belgian beast get any service? Maybe, if he can convince Ritchie to switch sides before the game.
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.

Morning Silva,
I am also having my worst start! Thing is so are most of the serious managers. The maniacs have taken over fpl!
Not for long though mate i’m pretty sure things will turn around. I feel your frustration just hang in there and all will be good.
Roo just looks poor. I am getting rid of him but it feels wrong with the Newcastle game next so maybe last chance next week is ok.
Morning all!
Currently on a WC!
This is where I’m at the moment. Your suggestions would be appreciated.
I usually chase the money on a w/c and sort my actual team out as late as possible. You need 0.2 rises if your not keeping the players to make money. Obviously go for all the risers as you may decide to keep some.
That’s what I’m doing mate – just need them to keep on rising for me to make some money
Cool
Are you sure about the double United? Change either Darmian or Romero to arsenal or Chelsea.
Nvm I see you’re going for the risers for team value
Morning Mitro, how are you lad? so taking the players out that you have in for gaining money, what will your squad look like?
How do Alex!! I’m ok!! Not enjoying FF at the moment! Hoping for some big performances off Walcott Alexis YYT tekkers cech Ritchie to save my week!! YYT saved it last week so I’m hoping something similar happens! At the moment I’m just hoping to make as much as I can, ideally I would like to make £1m in the next week! I doubt it will happen
Mitro, good luck with the mil, would be amazing if you did!
I’d love to have YYT or anyone at all to stand up to be honest! No one has so far. So no team made up yet?
Layun n oxford being subbed last match
Loads of people considering wild card already.
Screw it if you’re doin it. I’m doin it!!
Lol just kidding but it’s so tempting.
Morning Butcher, I’m on 5 points and 2.9mil in the world, I am soon tempted lol. But going to hold fire. Hopefully the big players will come good. Soon. Very very soon.
Yeah last year I wild carded early and regretted it. But the fact you can use the second wild card any time after new year is helpful.
I’ve 11pts this week so far -4 from a hit that didn’t pay off either , well unless Yaya scores and sterling blanks
Morning all, Thanks so much for the articles this week, have read but not got round to thanking anyone. So have we all reached panic stations yet?
Morning NZ. Certainly not panicking mate, but the button had been pressed 😉 Quite the iffy start to this season eh?
Hello NIN, you well pal? its driving me crazy, slow starts I can deal with but 2.9mil in the world?! I should have gone auto-select preseason, i’d be higher now! Lol. How you going so far?
Haha, the chips are welding us to the bottom mate! Haven’t done too much work on it yet mate but i’m glad i activated it. Too many problems to be fixed and a few on the horizon too. Only guarantee is that it will be City heavy.
NIN, Kun and Silva?
See how funds go mate. Sterling has all the skills to really shit on that 9m price tag so he’s in with a shout too. Throw a defender in there and that’s your lot 😉
Morning all having another bad week again only on 12 points.
got 2ft no money in the bank.
HELP
Sit tight for now bud. No need for rash decisions just yet. Lets see who else shines today and tomorrow
Cheers mcbutcher some off my players frustrating the hell out of me
Shanec, your not alone pal! See how the games go today and who you want to keep out of Sterling/Ozil/Mane. Your in a good spot with 2FT so maybe look at Poyat, Myhez and the Swansea forward pair. They would also free up cash for Augero.
Alex good advice might wait to see how sterling and ozil are today
shanec – Hey bro. So, the league is still in the start-up phase, no teams have cemented their spot yet. So any team can go and win. If it helps, most players are having a horrible start to the season. Only the lucky one’s who went with loads of Swansea, Leicester and Everton forwards are having a good one.
Wait until later in the week before you make transfers as players can pick up injuries during the week, and there are still 3 games left this GW.
Hey Reuben just frustrating week again but will sit tight see how the rest do today cheers for the advice
No problem mate, hopefully you can pick up some points today and tomorrow.
Feel the same way shanec. It’s so frustrating to get a low score again in two consecutive GW (this GW not finished yet).
Hopefully our big hitter will shine and brighten up our GW. Just about time before this big hitter will explode. I’m sure of it…
Cheers
Not so busy this morning, too many hangover heads? How’s everyone fairing so far this week?
Terrible like myself I’m sure. 11pts(-4) with 5 to play: Koscielny, Milner, Yaya, Hazard and Cazorla
I’m Semi-hopeful due to the fact that 4 of those are MF
McButcher – Hey! I’m having a bad one, but I too am hopeful. Sitting on 9 points with Hazard, Henderson, CAPTAIN-Alexis, Agüero, Gomez and Cech left.
Hopefully our players can ease the pain. :beer:
with a bit of luck
did you see the top points this week? Howard as captain and used bench boost. 95 points so far with Cahill to play.
Haha oh God. People are so lucky.
