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

Anybody clued up on Newcastle? After an impressive defensive display against United, what will Taylors role be in the next few weeks? Will he start?
Think he only played because Janmaat was suspended. I don’t know whether his individual performance was so good that he’s no going to keep his place, but I wouldn’t count on it.
Thanks. How Coloccini didnt get any BP’s I’ll never know.
I thought Colo would get BPS, he got in a lot of blocks in, as did Taylor
Mane -> Pedro
Gomis -> Wilson
Worth it for a -4?
Tasty fixtures, could return the 4 points..
Not sure if it would be a wise decision to drop an in form Gomis at this stage.
I agree with B, Gomis is in good form
finally a week to feelgood about.no hits taken yet nor wc used. hope everything stabilises from now on.
41 points with Mertesacker Cazorla and Milner to play.
cappo Aguero dissapointed
Yaya and Sterling didnt though
Courtois you beauty.
this is what I have for the next GW
Courtois
Mertesacker Cedric Francis
Cazorla Yaya Sterling Mahrez
Aguero(c) Pelle Defoe
bench- Henessey Milner Coates Oxford
no FT remains. got Mahrez in for Ki sun yung
1.6mn in the bank. considering Caz to Pedro. not really willing to take a hit though. lets assess him tonight
even gotta sort the Milner issue. Later perhaps
sounds like a decent plan Nishant.
I’m seeing how Caz gets on tonight before i make any moves. I may go Haz > Pedro and Caz > Silva
I like those moves there. Silva is a must have. though I went with both Yaya qnd Sterling due to fund issues.
Also Pedro is the kind of man who would grab points from the hands of Hazard. atleast a few. but Hazard will come great sooner than later.
its a matter of trust mate
I agree i think Silva is a must have.
I’ve got Sterling, so the plan is to have him, Silva and Aguero at least for the next few games
If needed, with a downgrade of Rooney i could turn Sterling into Haz / Sanchez and have
Silva – Pedro – Haz / Sanchez with Aguero up top 😉
Afternoon!
How many points do you all have so far this GW, and how many to play tonight? I knew quite a few people have had a good week.
My WC is active, here’s my first draft. Early thoughts?
49 with 2 to play Veer
I like the front 7, that’s a similar midfield i want with silva / sanchez and pedro looks full of attacking intent.
i think your problem will come in defense with taylor targett and cathcart. I’d look at other options here and try to shave some money poss hart to improve the defense.
agree with photek there.
may be do Cathcart to a more trustworthy defender at 4.5mn
Francis looks good.
again Westwood and Mahrez worry me a bit.
but to get those wonderful mids I guess you are bound to do that
Hart to Romeo and Shaw to Sagna (same coverage, save 1.1m. Upgrade Taylor and Cathcart
Veer – I would drop Hart to a 4.5m and use the saving to upgrade Targett and Taylor. Neither are going to nail down starting spots. If Gomez loses his spot then you’d only have two defenders.
Either,
Cech> Hart
or
Cazorla>Pedro(I have 1,5m itb so its fine)
Feels like Hart is garanteed 6 points, Arsenals is not on form(Jinxing it before todays game) and withot Pedro is seems like a wise move. Thoughts?
Havertzon – How about keeping Cazorla and getting Pedro in for Depay? United aren’t scoring goals at all, or looking likely to.
Sounds like a good move.
Plus i’d wait to see what Cazorla does tonight before i make any moves.
Wish I was in your shoes and had enough spare to get Pedro in for Depay!
Depay has had his fair of chances, just think sooner or later he will come good? Cazorla is playing deeper now isnt he ?
No deeper than last season. Arsenal attack is much better than United’s anyway, plus their fixtures are softer.
