Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 3 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16
GW3 is live! Well back to a Saturday kick-off. This time we are treated to a match-up between Man United and Newcastle. If United’s first two games are any indication, there should be no need to watch. Unless of course if you enjoy watching an Italian distract a man right before he hangs onto his neck. The rest of the Saturday games are all at 3pm. Villa travel to Selhurst Park for a meeting of the two best managers. We also see Leicester welcome the defensively interesting Spurs and by interesting we mean crap. The Canaries look to face an EPL team (Stoke) this week instead of the Sunday league team they faced the previous week. Hopefully we will see Kop’s favourite player, Shaqiri. Swansea travel to the Stadium of Light to collect 3 points and score about 5 goals. Payet takes on Bournemouth in the last of the 3pm games.
On Sunday we have three fixtures. The Baggies have the wounded Champions pay a visit, in a fixture to determine who is the better side of the ones that lost 3-0 to City. Everton will look to pose a threat to the Champions to be, as City pay the Toffees a visit in a fixture that pits two of the more exciting attacking sides so far. The Saints pay Watford a visit in the last of our Sunday games. Will Deeney finally score? Will Southampton finally look a respectable defensive side?
Monday night sees the game-week come to a conclusion. As Liverpool travel to the Emirates in what we all hope is the best fixture of the GW. We can’t wait to see Theo bag a hat trick, just like last week. #WengerKnowsBest

How would you fit Pedro into this team?
You cant really. You would need to take Sanchez or Silva out which i wouldn’t.
Tjomsss
If you swapped for Mane how much do you need to raise?
I would need 1.5, the only way I see it is to also downgrade Payet to a 6.1. Would probably mess up my balance in the team though.
Tjomsss, lose Mane and Payet. How much does that leave you after Pedro?
That leaves me with 6.1 in bank.
Redmond, Kouyate, Hoolahan would probably be best at that price. Cant start them every week though.
Does Silva to Yaya, Mane to Pedro work?
0.2 short
Morning all,
Not sure where I saw this (&might even be imagining it)
I thought that a player has to be in the game for 8 days before transfers count towards any price rises. If that is the case then pedro was added on the 20th so nothing can happen to his price until at least the 28th & none of the current transfers in will count towards any price rise threshold.
Can anyone confirm if this is true?
hammers
Like you I was under this impression to. I have no source though. Hopefully someone can clarify?
GP.
There must be some element of truth in it as over 100k have transferred him in but FF Fix still has him at 0% for a rise
Hammers, that appears to be what is being said on Twitter. Im not sure how it goes on the 28th, do the transfers start from then?
Found it on FPL statistics website:-
“10.Any new players added to the fantasy league will not immediately increase (or decrease) in price. A player must have been in the league for over eight days before transfers count towards the threshold value. This locking period can be extended to the start of a new Gameweek if the completion of the eight days period falls within an international break. To view the date and time at which they will be unlocked look in the “Unlocks” column. If the date and time is in the future then the players price is current locked.”
not sure what happens after 15:53 on the 28th though
So Pedro can’t go up this GW?
not unless a shed load of people transfer him in on friday night i would suggest
Morning all better GW for me 64 Points Sanchez to play might take Pedro instead of Haz not sure
Silvers, I would in a heartbeat! 2mil saving!
Nz I would have to do Gomis to Wilson & Payet to Pedro .1m short crap
Silvers, bugger as Wilson went up last night! Who else could go in midfield?
Currently on 157 points and in the top 40k in the world. Ime third in my money league and top of the FF247 regulars league. And its not a fake position as someone commented on a couple of pages back. Ive been playing Fantasy Football for years now, and i know ive used 2 of my chips already but ime actually very patient with the game. I dont take hits, and i dont make rash transfers. My aim for the whole season is a top 10k finish which would be my highest finish in 4 years. Glad the game has picked up now and glad to see some high scores.
Morning Ant good scoring mate finally started climbing the leauge but did use my WC
Its there to be played so it really diesnt matter when its activated. And if it worked out well then you picked the right time.
Ant
Good going mate. Cracking start.
Noone at this stage can categorically state that this is or isn’t the right or wrong time to play any of the chips.
“fake position” lol
How can it be a fake position? There’s no way to know whether or not it’s goin to work out if you use your chips
Well done Ant good start
Thanks guys.
Hey guys, thinking of bringing in Pedro for Hazard and Yaya for Mane for this GW…leaving enough to bring in Kolarov for Mings/Huth/Richards next GW. Does that make good sense or should I save the hit? Squad is Cech (Hennessy)
Cedric, Azpil, Richards (Mings, Huth)
Hazard, Sanchez, Mahrez, Mane (Wanyama)
Aguero, Defoe, Sakho
Kilbegs, sound like very good moves
Okay cheers NZ Alex
Went for -4 pts hit and bought Pedro instead of Depay, done it quickly before his price rockets to the moon
Tomas, he won’t go up till the 28th as he is a new player. Nice team though.
