Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 5 – Fantasy Premier League 2014/15
The deadline bell has rung and your decisions are now final! This could actually be a tough week for fantasy managers. A lot of the usual, ‘obvious’ candidates are away from home and even those that aren’t have difficult games on paper. Arsenal, Liverpool, Southampton, Man Utd and Chelsea are all on the road while Swansea and Man City are at home but are by no means guaranteed anything, facing Southampton and Chelsea respectively. QPR and Stoke kick us off at 12.45pm in the early Saturday game and even that ones hard to call given the inconsistencies of both. We then have five 3pm kick offs and the day is rounded off as West ham host Liverpool in the evening game at 5.30pm. Sunday sees Leicester vs Man Utd and Spurs vs West Brom, both at 1.30pm followed by two 4pm games as Everton host Palace and the big one of the weekend that sees Man City square up to Chelsea.
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 GW5 from all at FF247!
Hi all, had a good week, currently on 62 with terry, costa, fab and rooney to play.
looking forward for what to do with my ft, 0.8 itb(could save that for chambers–>debuchy) or ward prowse out? blackett continues to play so wondering if 4.5 is a bargain?
thanks all.
sorry, forgot to attach
Fantastic score Hazard. Big green arrows for you this week.
Looking forward, i’d keep an eye on Terry and Ramsey…lots of money in 2 non-performing players. Replacements would be your choice.
62?! Brilliant performance so far for you, mate. Agree with Mr Bean, start thinking about City cover for their coming fixtures.
Hazard, 62 is insane! Puts me in my place with my 11 (-4!)
Blackett’s days are truly numbered, in fact there is even talk of Shaw playing today so he might not even play today let alone in the coming GWs. That is a very nice team there though so I think you can afford the luxury of a sideways transfer – my suggestions would be Terry to Baines or Ivanovic, or Ramsey to Di Maria.
LOL dude, you went from 250k to top 5k. You caught up with me with 40 points, I’m just 2 points ahead of you with a score of 22, hahaha. Awesome. Hope the rest of your players also have a perfect gameweek. Since I also have those (plus DDG & Di Maria).
😉
I would wait for word on JWP. I didn’t see the injury but heard it looked pretty bad.
Somebody mentioned something about a JWP injury yesterday? Any expansion on the news or was it all made up? I have Davis and he’ll start if JWP cant play.
That was me and why would I make it up? I was watching the match. Think he has an Ankle/Foot Injury and he couldn’t step off of the field himself, needed a brancard (I think you call it in English?).
Anyway. Davis should be a good shout, think he was first sub coming on. However, Southampton still have a lot of good players and once Mane returns he will start always, he’s freaking genius.
Defo seeing the wisdom of not having 2 rotating keepers just 1 player and maybe that teams second choice goalie to save some money, got it horribly wrong playing krul over mannone; 1 vs 10 points so new lesson learned i think get rid of the heartache of 1 element of decision making going wrong
Of course it can work well if u know what ur doing
Then you get stuck with a goalkeeper playing every week, even against tricky teams. That’s almost bearable if you have someone like Courtois but having Krul/Elliot, Schmeichel/Hamer, Heaton/Gilks etc. (the cheaper options) will leave games against Pool, City, United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs (if their attackers turn up), Everton, Southampton and Swansea (in both of their forms) which I wouldn’t like to do. Rotation ensures minimalist matches against huge teams.
Actually not so bearable with Chelsea coverage since they have been sucking at the back (I know, I have f-ing Terry). I picked DDG and was hoping for a few CS’s because of the easy early fixtures. Looking to let him go though, the United fixtures will get much harder in a few GW’s.
Hoping for an odd CS versus City today. Shit, if Stoke can do it, Chelsea must be able to do it. PARK THE BUS MOURINHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😛
Same here Geoffreys, pain in the arse when it works out like that. I’ll be holding onto Krul though as i had planned to bench him for the next two anyway. Hopefully those of us with pish scores can catch up today. Plenty of ball to be played yet
True enough NIN have eriksen as captain for something different so looking forward to see how today works out
We think alike, Adebayor(c) here 😉 Lets hope Spurs give them a spanking 😉
Spurs: Lloris, Dier, Kaboul (c), Chiriches, Rose; Capoue, Dembele; Chadli, Eriksen, Lamela; Adebayor
United: De Gea, Rafael, Evans, Blackett, Rojo, Blind, Herrera, Di Maria, Falcao, Rooney, van Persie
WBA: Foster, Wisdom, Dawson, Lescott, Pocognoli, Dorrans, Morrison, Gardner, Brunt, Sessegnon, Berahino.
Leicester: Schmeichel, De Laet, Morgan (c), Moore, Konchesky, Hammond, Cambiasso, Nugent, Drinkwater, Vardy, Ulloa.
You guys reckon Moore will keep his spot @ Leicester? Even when Upson returns?
Cheers TJ! When will LVG drop RVP?? Mata on form is way better
Tnx mate.
wooo – Falcoa starts
Thanks TJ. On the ball as ever
All out attack from United… this will be interesting 
Looks like a diamond formation again for United..Rooney ‘in the hole’?
Mata out, ouch.
I couldn’t believe that, I expected his performance from last week (and RVP’s continually poor form) to make him nailed on this week.
