Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 3 – Fantasy Premier League 2014/15
The deadline bell has rung, your team has been decided, your skipper chosen and there’s nothing else you can do about it, except sit back and hope you’ve selected well. All the matches take place at the weekend, no Monday night football this week and we kick off as Burnley entertain local rivals and current comedy outfit, Manchester United. Will the Red Devil’s new Angel inspire the team to a turnaround or will memories of Milton Keynes come back to haunt them? Five 3pm kick offs follow, while the early evening game takes place at Goodison as Everton host Chelsea. Three Sunday games follow, culminating with Leicester vs Arsenal.
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 GW3 from all at FF247!

Evening all, sorry not been about but have been away this weekend. Fairly disappointing week with just 49pts, but great to see some excellent scores on here from some of you, well played!
Well done those who kept Costa also, great decision!
inittowinit
Evening Cookie, 49? That sounds positively wonderful in comparison! Just back from a weeks Hols myself and I seem to be having an FPL ‘mare! WC is on the horizon for me I think, I’ve had enough and need to fix it before it’s too late. Hope everyone else is faring somewhat better?!
Demsie
Nope. I’m with you 2 I’m afraid. Terrible week. Took costa out and scored a miserable 42 !
I’m thinking WC too but can’t seem to bring myself to pull the trigger this early
Cookie
Didn’t realise you were away Init :hippo:
There seems to be many wildcarding this international break. Can’t help but sense a load of panic going on.

Init,
I’m ‘carding as well I think.
Floydeth (CDLS)
Cookie! Lets not mention Costa! You looking forward to helping me with my wildcard this week :thumbup:
Cookie
No :hippo:
Thought you had it all sorted?!
Floydeth (CDLS)
Ha, I (we) have the whole international break. Init said he wants to help too #ffanks
Cookie
I wouldn’t get in the way of such a loving relationship
Floydeth (CDLS)
He loves to hate me
webstar87
You wildcarding tonight to catch the price rises then? Gives you the rest of the game-week to tinker without getting caught out
Cookie
But the price rises are not working in the usual format are they?! That’s makes gaining tv harder, but certainly not impossible as you have a fortnight.
Milk and Busquets
yeah Cookie, I read somewhere Costa trained on Friday so thought why not! This international break will screw a lot of people over regarding their WCs.. Too much time to think means too much time to decide on using the WC!
Cookie
I agree Milky, think I’ll just keep my head down for a week or two and enjoy the tinkering from afar!!
Milk and Busquets
Agreed. I was about to ship out Eriksen (Although I didn’t watch the LFC vs. Spurs game) since his game time seems to reduce.. But rather hold off to see which player gets injured on international duty!
Cookie
Very wise, a Milky, very wise – you have leant well, my friend #onlytakenayear :hippo:
Milk and Busquets
This is only my second year! Calm down there Cookie 😛 Although Eriksen to a CFC midfielder for a hit seems the only option. Not that I am thinking about that.
Thanks for the Dummett idea though! NOT blaming you.
Cookie
No worries – oooops! Sorry! In fairness the site team bought him too, so you’re in excellent company!
Milk and Busquets
Haha does anyone know why he didn’t feature? I’m not complaining though – Pieters came in for him and saved my GW!
Cookie
Ah now you say. Stop bloody blaming me then! Praise me. It did you
a favour!
Dinner time, back soon
Milk and Busquets
Just told you Cookie, I’m not blaming you! Never will
Enjoy, bring left overs.
Real Madrid 2-2 Real Sociedad
inittowinit
I Disagree Milky. That’s been the plan all along and was a lesson from last season. I’m viewing it as an opportunity to fine tune a starting 9 + 2 with options which was the original plan that I didn’t stick to. Some great patterns emerging already which I hoped for just as they did last season only this time I’m not going to be stubborn enough not to follow them.
Milk and Busquets
Sorry inittowinit.. What are you talking about and disagreeing with me about?
inittowinit
Hi Milky, I’m disagreeing with – “This international break will screw a lot of people over regarding their WCs.. Too much time to think means too much time to decide on using the WC!”…. Rather too much time than too little.
Milk and Busquets
Ahhhh. Yes could be. But if you’ve had a tough start you’ll be thinking about nothing other than that WC!
The Gallant Pioneer (@mitchellcraig81)
Good evening Cookie and all . .
In the counting house with 51 which I am satisfied with considering I removed Costa for Kun. I was between Costa and Rooney and picked the wrong one but that’s just fantasy for you.
Janmaat, Neil Taylor (again) and Sigurdsson (yet again) the success stories.
Cookie
GP, I was a click away from selling Debuchy for Janmaat Friday night. Sadly I too had already sold Costa and didn’t want to take the hit.
The Gallant Pioneer (@mitchellcraig81)
Cookie,
I’d still consider it to be a good move to get Janmaat in. Do you?
Milk and Busquets
He’s currently yellow-flagged, but he should be alright. He looks a decent FPL buy, but with Krul most people won’t want to double up.
Cookie
GP, yeah seems excellent value. Don’t know if I’ll be doing next time or not. I won’t even look at my team this week as the internationals and potential injuries may dictate transfers anyway, as Milky correctly pointed out.
The Gallant Pioneer (@mitchellcraig81)
Milky
I have both. Doubled up yesterday. Didn’t work
Milk and Busquets
GP I was going to with Dummett.. but we know how that ended.
inittowinit
Whoa! Tons of questions but the one that stands out is Floydy – I don’t love to hate you at all you fool! I have no idea who you are 😉
Jeet T4
Quick question who should i’ve play ?
Foster Home v Everton or Krul away vs Southmapton
Cookie
Jeet, it’s 2 weeks away mate! You going on holiday or something?!
webstar87
This is what’s known as the FF-rush, an as yet legal high known to affect people from all walks of life.
Cookie
Where Raz and his monkeys?
duthers
Actually tempted to take out mata for sterling in the next few days, I imagine mata’s price will be going down whilst sterling the other way
Milk and Busquets
Duthers fair point – but risk injury on Sterling with Engshit.
Floydeth (CDLS)
Should I press the WC button on this lot?
Mr Bean
Floydeth,
Your team doesn’t require drastic changes and you have a very good overall position.
However, WCing must be your decision – if you’re not happy with the team or have a specific plan to carry out, go for it.
Floydeth (CDLS)
Cheers Bean, pretty much decided already just wanted reassuring
Got to many non-starters on my bench and want costa back in before he rises (whenever that may be) Also I am hoping if I take my United players out we might start winning…
Kop Warrior
No, because I value my sanity!!
Floydeth (CDLS)
We can do our doubles team at the same time Kop :thumbup:
Anonymous123
Rooney -> Costa?
Mr Bean
Anon,
Long term its a good move (no brainer imo) but considering next weeks fixtures, who knows if it will turn out to be a good move at this stage.
Anonymous123
Thanks,
Think I’ll go for it
