Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 2 – Fantasy Premier League 2014/15
The deadline bell has rung, meaning no more tinkering, no more transfers and your gameweek captain has been chosen. Did you go with Costa or Fabregas or are you ignoring the Chelsea brigade and maybe kept faith with Siggy or even Robertson!! Whatever your team, we now look forward to three days of action, starting off with Aston Villa vs Newcastle this lunchtime and finishing Monday night at the Etihad as City entertain Liverpool.
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 for GW2 from all at FF247!

Raziel

Tekno-kun (The 69er, Winner of Potty's 1st ever Twitter Comp; twice CL Comp winner, current profession: Saiyan, formerly: model, Bulrog, mage, big bad dawg; hallway monitor; tranny; wannabe Nazi commander)

HL

The B

My remaining players arent that great, so Im not excited.
>3 United players: Have a feeling that Sunderland will win, they usually do against the big boys.
>Caulker and Austin: Cant expect much from QPR at Spurs.
>Bego: A hit or miss choice at best.

46 with 5 left to play
Raziel
Di Maria and Khedira ready to sign for United. If that’s true… they’re def. top 4. 😉
Cookie
The Khedira one is interesting Razman – thought the Goonies were nailed on for him, then it looked like Bayern, but his agent appeared to dismiss Bayern last night. Would be very happy with him. Hoping ADM talks him into it!
chins and bellies
We don’t need him Cookie. We have this new guy called Diaby who can play there. Just waiting for him to come back from injury and he’ll be like a new player for us. Yep. Any day now….
TheDreamers
Chins- I heard this injury is a one off. He generally isn’t injured …
chins and bellies
Ah, Mr Wenger! How kind of you to join us!

Bench..
How’s things?
Can u help me over-here mate ?
BANTERBURY QUALIFICATION LEAGUE B – received an invite with the code, off course…
When I tried to join the league Aug 3rd or 4th (don’t remember) – the league was closed as it was already full… :/
Bench@BanterburyLeagues
HL apologies mate but there was a deadline to join,so your place unfortunately was taken up by someone else, had so many wanting to be a part of it this year, that was unbelievable! So mate your welcome to join this classic league, where top 12 will enter Q league’s next year
HL
No worries, mate…
I ll join the Classic League, yep…
Cheers !
chins and bellies
50 with 3 to play.
But most importantly, another strong showing from the boys on the bench. Hutton and Coloccini. Doh!
Hows everyones XI and bench doing?
NIN
Hi chins, that’s some good going there mate. Plenty of £ rises for you this week 😉
53pts for my lot so far with Caulker, Mata, Bojangles and Rooney left to play. Baird and Duff have one between them on the bench and Mutch and Begovic play tomorrow.
chins and bellies
Nice going Nin!
Fair play for sticking with Mata. I crumbled under price rise pressure like spineless weasel.
Need a Sterling masterclass tomorrow to play off the hit.
And i’m with you on the bojangles hatrick!
NIN
chins, there’s no way i was selling Mata mate. To be honest, i’ll struggle to do it even if he blanks tomorrow. A hatty from the Bojan would be delightful! I’m expecting it now 😉
Don’t mess with the Bojan
The B
Hey Chins
My bench is doing pathetic so far, collective score of 3 from 4 players on bench. I like it that way.
The starting 11 boys have done well though. 5 players including captain have put in a collective score of 41 post bonus.
You have quite a polished team there mate.
chins and bellies
B, you need to sort that bench out mate! Those points count you know!!
Andy
35 with four to play dear chins, the my Arsenal trio of Chambers – Debuchy – Giroud has been a sore spot today but that’s the way it goes, nil pois on the bench but three of them don’t get their game anyways, I’ve never liked selection headaches.
You happy with today’s NFL draft? I’m not too sure on my RB’s and whether or not loading up on QB’s was such a great idea.
chins and bellies
Hi Andy!
Yep, i went with my heart and stuck debuchy in too. Silly really. Especially after losing 3-0 there last season, and we were lucky to get the point today. Oh well. Might give Coloccini a run out next week.
NFL draft was good fun. Was never going to be a really strong lineup though with that many teams. Happy overall though, and will definitely be keeping an eye on the free agents as i didn’t really know much about some of my latter picks.
I used the same strategy today as my draft last night. One QB and load up on RBs. We’ll see which pays off eh!
. I just figured those guys are going to get injured a lot! Did you keep an eye on the bye weeks? I had a shocker on that. Had 3 WRs all missing on the same week!
Should be a fun season.
Andy
I should have finished one of the drafts but the one I started was taking forever so I just quit on it, I’ve not got too many clashes with the bye’s but that’s more down to luck than design, I am looking forward to some NFL action though.
TheDreamers
33 with 6 to play – not a good start at all. At all at all.
Bench@BanterburyLeagues
Well I am not as drunk as last night
NIN
chins and bellies
Haha! Good stuff Bench. It sounded like you were having a good one, and a pretty early start too! Where abouts are you?
Bench@BanterburyLeagues
haha the west country my friend
and welcome to the benchish language, you will fluent in 6 months ! cookie even talks to me in it 
chins and bellies
And…. Hows everyone feeling about the allocation of bonus points so far?
From what i’ve seen so far, it seems to better reward those that played well rather than those who do nowt except pop up with a winning goal.
Thoughts great folk of FF247?
NIN
I think it’s okay mate. There’s been a few odd ones like Clichy scooping the lot in gwk1. Odd.
TheDreamers
It seems to favour play n assists are looked at better which is good.
Tekno-kun (The 69er, Winner of Potty's 1st ever Twitter Comp; twice CL Comp winner, current profession: Saiyan, formerly: model, Bulrog, mage, big bad dawg; hallway monitor; tranny; wannabe Nazi commander)
Well, Aguero got 1 BP because he scored a goal in the 8 mins he played :/
Strikers get 24 BPS from goals, so in low scoring matches, they’ll most likely get some. (A defender needs a CS (12 BPS) + a goal (12 BPS) to match that)
TheDreamers
Stupid question – why different points for scoring dependant on position.
Tekno-kun (The 69er, Winner of Potty's 1st ever Twitter Comp; twice CL Comp winner, current profession: Saiyan, formerly: model, Bulrog, mage, big bad dawg; hallway monitor; tranny; wannabe Nazi commander)
Don’t ask me, it’s just the way the system is. Mids get 18 BPS from scoring.
The B
Okay guys, where exactly do you think Ill use up my 2 FTs this GW?
Honestly speaking, I like the team. I can see myself doing Bego>Krul, but Bego has a bad fixture just in GW3 and after that he will have amazing fixtures.
I could do Chambers>Dummett, since Chambers will soon lose his starting place in Arsenal because of his pathetic game against Everton and return of Mert and Kosc partnership.
Liverpool will have good fixtures from GW4, so might be worth investing in Sterling/Sturridge/Balotelli as well?
Thoughts are appreciated, since I am clueless as to where to use these 2 precious FTs.
Team for GW3
NIN
The B – I’d probably go with Chambers >> N.Taylor and reassess during the week.
Andy
I’d wait on seeing how Man Utd play tomorrow, if Mata again fails to deliver (and with possibly the arrival of Di Maria affecting his position) I’d probably be looking at some Citeh cover from Silva.
