Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 6 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16
GW6 is live! And well lucky us as we got a special treat for a lunchtime game this week, with last year’s champions against the runners-up. Wenger always the bridesmaid finally sees a legitimate shot to knock off Jose in EPL action. However we all know that Arsenal will only kick start the Chelsea season and give them confidence going forward. In other action, ‘give it away Sherwood’ faces off versus the Baggies, who need all the help they can get scoring a goal. Callum Wilson gets another legitimate shot at a hat trick as he faces the Sunderland defence. Watford travels to Newcastle where the atmosphere promises to be delightful considering the Toon’s current position – bent over. Stoke welcomes in Mahrez and his legion of FPL admirers. Swansea look to recover after a loss when they take on Everton and their Scottish Messi, Naismith. In the last game of the day, City look to continue their incredible form as they tangle with the Payet dependent Hammers.
On Sunday we have three fixtures. We start the day with a dangerous Palace side visiting Spurs. This is a fixture that could have anyone pop up as the goal scorer… well, except Harry Kane, poor guy. Speaking of not scoring or barely scoring, ‘Mr. Interesting tactics’ Brendan Rodgers will look to call on the ghost of Suarez past as they welcome in Norwich. In the last fixture we see the resilient Saints look to contain future Ballon d’Or winner Adnan Januzaj sorry, future superstar James Wilson sorry, Anthony Martial? They rise and fall so fast, we can’t keep up.

Hey everyone! Any suggestions for this team? I’m thinking Ramsey needs to go but who for?
The B
Duh. Payet is the obvious pick.
Smash10
Yeah probably Payet
lukealike
if u want arsenal cover then walcott, if you dont care about the team then payet, or hoolahan is a good choice with good fixtures.
MattX
Right lads looking at this team what do you think of doing Hazard and Redmond out for Pedro and Payet in?
Smash10
Sounds good to me. Though not 100% because you have kept hold of Hazard for so long. Seems a bit wrong to get rid after he scores.
MattX
Ye I know that’s true but it’s just been so many poor performances before so I’m kind of torn.
lukealike
it was an own goal to be honest, the deflection was big. No way hazards shot was going on, and his price his goal scoring form is not justified. Oscar or pedro is a betetr chocie then Hazard but I want none personally
MattX
Cheers Luke. Thing is though I have to downgrade Haz to have the little bit of extra money to upgrade Redmond to Payet. So you don’t think any Chelsea players are worth it??
lukealike
more that I dont think they are worth the risk when there are many other very good midfield options. They all seem a bit off to me, im sure by the end of the season they will do well but right now I personally dont want to risk Cheslki. If I had to have one though it would be Pedro, coming from a team like Barca he is going to be enthusiatic and have a high work rate, he will still be playing in that frame of mind and I expect him to equal how many assists Fabregas got the first season he joined Chelsea
If I had your chocie I would probably get Walcott despite Arsenals performances at the moment
MattX
I started the season with Wally actually but had to sell him. I missed the match yesterday did he play??
lukealike
yea he played yesterday but Arsenal have obviously a terrible record vs Chelsea and Arsenal went to 9 men lol, cant remember what Walcott did or didnt do, but he gets good oppurtuniteis and normally takes them. Saying that though, Sanchez could start scoring anytime, he has got ridiuclous stats for shots and time spent in the box etc, just been not finishing his chances. If you want Arsenal then Waloctt is the sensible choice, and sanchez the expensive gamble which will pay off eventually. Think I might bring in Waloctt depending on fixtures which I aint looked at
Smash10
Chelsea’s slow start was due to them coming back from holidays 2 weeks late so they will be back to normal now. They just beat Arsenal. As for risk Walcott is as big as it gets. Will always be rotated with Giroud unless Wenger starts playing him on the right
Ruben
Exactly Luke! Hazard’s shot was never going in. Can’t believe they awarded him the goal.
Ruben
Smash – I really don’t think that that’s the only explanation for Chelsea’s slow start. Poor management and bad form is more like it.
MattX
Ye you see all of you are making good points and that’s why I can’t decide because they are all making sense to me. Luke I sold Walcott for the reason that he kept getting rotated and like smash says it could still happen.
lukealike
yea Hazard shouldnt be awarded that, maybe I saw it from abd angle but looked to me like it was going out the stadium TBH. Just a joke really when my competitors got a goal for that, I might complain to the FA LOL
MattX
Haha so then what should I do? Haz, Pedro, Wally or anyone else??
lukealike
What your gut says, wait till after teams play mid week though incase someone gets hurt or there is a spike in form etc. Things could change
Ruben
Matt – You can’t go wrong with Hazard + Redmond -> Pedro + Payet.
MattX
Ye that’s what I’m thinking but I’m going to wait till Friday before confirming it. Just like Luke says anything could happen midweek.
MelonCat
Any thoughts what I should do for next week? I’m thinking Courtois out for De Gea. Also want Payet but not sure who to take out for him…
2 FT and 0.7m
lukealike
lose sanchez, although if silva is injured then replace him. IDK how long is he injured for? Or swap out both of them for payet and hoolahan, depends how hoolahan does today. I expect him to score against liverpool and he has good fixtures coming up. I think he has had a hand in almost all of norwichs goals…
Anyway there is football mid week, I would wait till Thursday or Friday incase anyone dies or something
RoLfc1
Moved up to college and have no internet until this week so couldn’t make any changes, worked out well enough haha.
2 mill in the bank and 2 FT, Benteke to sakho or some other striker? and then wanyama to payet/ayew or arsenal mid?
Smash10
Courtois and Ibe need to go for me as a priority. The rest looks pretty good
The Gallant Pioneer (@mitchellcraig81)
RoLFC
Goalkeeper surely especially as you have 2 transfers?
Ruben
Fucking knew I should have taken Son in this week.. Oh well at least I picked him for my Potty Predictions.
The Gallant Pioneer (@mitchellcraig81)
Sturridge STARTS!
Mignolet, Clyne, Skrtel, Sakho, Moreno, Lucas, Can, Milner, Coutinho, Benteke, Sturridge
Ruddy; Whittaker, Martin, Bassong, Brady; Redmond, Dorrans, Tettey, Jarvis; Howson; Jerome
Ruben
YESSSS STUUUUURRIDGE!
Thanks GP!
lukealike
ew intersting, Brendans saviour has returned
RedVT
Wow, Hoolahan not starting and the Gomez rumors prove true. Interesting. Thanks for the line-ups GP!
lukealike
Yea surprising, maybe he needs a rest. IDK why else he would not be starting. I presume he will come on as a sub
PeterPan
What Gomez rumour?
RedVT
Rumors that Gomez would be benched today Peter after 5 consecutive starts. Unless he comes on later that’ll be Whittaker coming off my bench and with Sturridge and Benteke bearing down on him I don’t see too many points for him! :say-what:
abhirup780
Hope Gomez doesn’t come on and Naughton comes out of my bench. Then I am going to end the GW with 59. No one to play for me today!
