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.

I captained Rooney, will give him one last match though
Once it wasn’t triple (c) 😉
With the strange behavior already this season concerning the use of chips and those obviously wanting their 15 seconds of fame each week with strange squad selections etc etc…, at what point in the season does overall ranking become truly reflective of overall performance? I would imagine it to be much later in the season than has been the case in prior years. I’d suggest probably the last third of the season? It’s going to be really hard to gauge overall performance for a while yet.
I wouldn’t even give it a second thought yet Blue. Let the Chippers roll. The serious players will emerge once that nonsense is done and start to play theirs at the correct time.
I was going to +1 this, but two in a row is just lazy
Agreed though, not worth thinking about now as the looney-bins are in full flow. GW average is the way i look at it. A 67 average, or there about’s, is enough to be in the hunt for a win so even a 55-60 average is top 10k stuff you’d imagine. Might be a bit higher this season with the chip potential and broader scope of the WC’s.
+1
Pffft, 19.3% of top 1k this week have Kompany (c). Come on Harry, bang in a hatty.
And that tells you everything you need to know.
It sure does. He’s not even mentioned in the “Overall in FPL” list in FFF, which is no surprise.
19%! Wow…… Prob the same nutters that captained him last week. On a triple! Lol
I see Darmian got a clean sheet, a yellow card and 2 bonus points. Goalscorer jan got no bonus points. Last season that would have been different. Have to keep an eye on this as the system might be favouring different types of player this year
The bonus points I mean
hi Magic
how has he played? Havent seen any of their games yet
Solid but not spectacular. Had a few mistakes and loose balls.
Januzaj came off after 58 minutes though. If he had another 10 minutes on the pitch he probably would’ve receive BP.
And if you watched the game, Darmian played well. Lots of good tackles and passing (Man Utd defenders may have a skewed pass completion this season the way they are passing it about the back).
I know Darmian played well mate. My point was last season the yellow would have been enough for him to miss out on bonus pts. This season the scoring system has been adjusted a bit. Just noting that really
Morning all..any ideas for this week or am I good to go
Good luck to you all in gw2
Just realised iv missed the deadline haha
Bollix
Are Courtois and Ritchie owners taking any action before the price falls?
have neither but even if I did, its too early in the gw to do anything about it really
Morning B. I have Courtois and am just riding out the storm of not having a keeper this week. I might be stupid, but if I’ve kept him up to now, what action could I take? Just wondering if I’ve missed something.
