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!
Are people waiting until after the mid-week games until they make their transfers?
webstar87 – I have no planned transfers but yeah, after Monday nights game at the earliest i’d imagine. Play it safe unless price rises are totally fecking up your plans.
I am, even without the mid week games I’m wary of signing people too early as anything can happen in a week. Probably look into possible transfer action next Friday night or Saturday morning.
2FT Any ideas?
Thanks
Rip – How about Bruce >> Dummet? It’d give a decent rotation with O’Shea. I’d probably do that move and keep the other FT.
Thanks I have been Thinking Bruce – Hutton or Lovren – Clyne but the Liverpool fixtures improve from GW4
I could use one for Mata – Sterling but see how they go first
Also another idea is Bojan – Naismith. Cahill – Ivanovic
Thoughts on Mutch? Might bench Bojan and get WP
Rip – I’ve got Mutch myself mate. Disappointed he blanked last week but i think he’ll come good mate. Sunderland (h) next week is a good fixture.
Mata’s performance against Sunderland will give you a good idea about using your FTs, but what NIN suggested is a good idea.

Do you agree?
gwk average is 28.
Hmmm, I’m on 46 points with DDG, Pieters, Mata and Rooney to play.
18 above average mate, happy days for now.
Indeed, last week also had a 66 score so after 2 weeks I’ll have a decent grand total. Noticed next GW I have 9 players playing away games though. Though, in all honesty sometimes that can only helps the attacking players. Below I have my team, what changes would you make?
Oooh, that being the average score. Does it also say how many players there are still to play? Average that is.
Raz – I don’t know where to get that information. I’m sure Jeet will be on soon enough 😉 He’s usually great for that type of info.
28 avg with 6 players left to play

There you have it. Cheers Tek.
From fpl discovery – Expected overall average is 28 points with 6 players left to play.
Ahh Tekno got there first
Ok peepz, my team:
DDG – Gilks
Pieters – Chambers – Terry – Hutton – Baird
Fabregas – Mata – Ramsey – Siggy – Albirghton
Rooney – Costa – PELLE (FFS)
0,5m in the bank and 1 FT
Pelle will score points sooner than later but if I have to be patient, he needs to get a ball in his feet first. He hasn’t had 1 clear f-ing chance yet.
Anyway, was thinking of replacing Chambers with Clyne or Baird with Dummet.
Raz – I watched the 2nd half of the Southampton game today, this Pelle guy is so out of his depth it’s unreal. He cost them a goal by f*****g around when he had three players to pass to and was generally useless. He even looked stressed out! I’d sell him mate. He’s not a good player.
Mehehe, brought him in for Jovetic yesterday… haha. It hurts so much. Felt so useless today. Was a real poor performance by him. Though, in all honesty. In order for him to perform he needs to get balls. He didn’t involve himself in the game at all, he was just in the box and nothing was getting there. Sighs, same happened with Bony last season though. Just praying he will come good. 😉
Exactly mate, he doesn’t know what’s happening around him. I get the impression that if it’s not put on a plate for him, then he’ll never score. Even on set pieces he was weak. I suppose you could get away with it for another week but if he performs like that again then he has to go. £7.5m is a lot for him.
I know, but for the time being I’ll have to keep him. Sighs. Was a risk and I knew it was possible this could happen. He actually didn’t look all that bad last week. Anyway, hope he gets used to the EPL F-ing fast. If he does find his confidence he can score with ease. From what I’ve seen he hasn’t gotten 1 good pass yet. Also, he’s all alone in the box, when Tadic puts in a ball he has 3 big defenders surrounding him. If a second player is in the box that would be 1 or 2 defenders.
I do hope he gets some goals Raz. A few on here have him so it’d be good to see some returns. You’re dead on re being all alone. He should be able to handle that though. Shame J.Rod is injured as he’d likely help him out a lot.
Right, time for MOTD now so i’m logging off for a bit. Catch ya later buddy.
Tax ( that’s what your name changes to so be it)
Depends on tactics – if it’s ” don’t care re bench”, then u replace Chambers. Newcastle or Swansea could be worth a look.
Stay patient and see how Mata does first.You might need to do Mata>Sterling because Liverpool’s fixtures are now getting better from GW3/4.
For some reason I don’t think my Chelsea/United coverage will need much change. United are at a huge advantage once the CL starts.
And if they do manage to get Khedira/Di Maria they’ll be good.
Ps. Mata las week really wasn’t all that poor
Raz,
Swans and Magpies defence are looking good for their upcoming fixtures:
Taylor and Collo are both at 4.5 mil, Dummet at 4 mil, they all look good!
Tnx, was actually thinking about those players.
First time in 6 years of Fantasy Football that all of my defenders have grabbed clean sheets in the same gameweek…not a bad gameweek at all!
Too bad Clyne picked up a yellow card though. 😛
The BP Taylor picked up can cancel that out
Spot on. Still better than having a 6-6-6 defense which is bad luck I guess. 😉
😉 Nice one.
