Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 8 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16
GW8 is live! We start the week off with a lunch time affair between Palace and West Brom. Palace brings the almost all useable, but none consistent enough to be used in FPL mids versus the Baggies all useable defenders as long as they are playing away. After that early kick off we follow it up with five, 3pm fixtures. The Villans battle Barca B (Stoke City) in an early relegation battle, newly promoted Watford pay a visit to the Wilson-less Bournemouth side, in other action Newcastle take on a Manchester City side that is playing like…well, Newcastle. The Canaries tangle with the recently perch dropped Leicester side after Mahrez and company got beat down at the hands of Arsenal. 3rd place West Ham gets their chance to fill their boots when they face the criminally inept Sunderland defence. In the last fixture of the day we see the strangely enough fun (funny at times) as heck Mourinho side face off against Southampton who is known to at times get into up and down affairs. Expect a 0-0 now.
On Sunday we have three fixtures. The Merseyside Derby gets us going. A surprising Everton side takes on the evil genius Brendan Rodgers. By evil we mean funny and by genius we also mean funny. After Rodgers finishes up with his party trick formations, we get some more when LVG takes his first place side to visit a 4th place side. Any idea who could be in 4th? Just guess, it is very obvious… that’s right Arsenal!! Wenger will feel relieved knowing he has already taken control of his ultimate objective and undoubtedly will have proved naysayers wrong again. Who needs a striker? Not Wenger! In the other fixture the Swans play host to the resurgent Spurs. Spurs of course are in 6th place, perfectly in line for a Europa spot, again.

Who should I get in place of Sterling? KDB or Silva?
Personally Silva is one of my favourite Mf and yesterday he was awesome but leaning to KDB just because of his more goal threat, takes shots from distance and takes FK’s as well !
I don’t think you can go wrong with either
yash
Silva is probably the player in the league I personally enjoy watching the most but I took on KdB from the start and I can’t change back – he just has so much fantasy potential.
KdB for me.
Love waking up and jumping 1 mil places…
Top 250k!!!
Finally moving in the right direction!!
Thank you Kun and KdB
It’s a great feeling!! Well done mate
Cheers Mitro
Still Cech, sanchez and martial to go.
Holding thumbs for a sanchez and martial hatty and cech saving a mata pen… haha
Morning,
I captained KdB over Aguero and there is only ten points difference between that decision so it’s not too bad. First captain I’ve called right this season (on the weekend when the 15-point captain probably wasn’t ‘right’ . . .strange).
Well done Payet, Butland and new signing Vardy as well. I’m happy today . .
GP
My new signing was Ighalo in for Wilson. So happy with that
I also was close to giving the armband to KdB… during the 1st half was even thinking of subbing Silva in for KdB… but that 2nd half was crazy… I honestly feel if Pelly left Aguero on they would have reach double figures… but understand why he did. Was still hoping Kol would have gotten something
Regardless 1st “right” captain call thats actually done something
Morning All,
Thanks to Kun, KDB and payet I have managed to go from 500k to 75k!! Just need Alexis, bellerin and martial to run riot today and I should break the 100 mark
Anyway I know it’s a bit early but I need to keep on sorting my defence out, ideally I need to shift sagna (he actually went up last night and made me a extra 0.1)
Who would you suggest? I have 0.4 ITB and I would like to free up some extra cash if possible as I will be downgrading azpillicueta the following week to bring in either mane, Walcott or Sturridge the week after (to be honest I will get too excited and just take a hit again
)
Morning Mitro,
I’d probably remove Sagna, Targett and then Azpilicueta in that order.
All being well, Sagna to Naughton or Williams?
Does anyone know how Ighalo and Hoolahan rotate? Considering that on wild card?
smash

Thanks GP not too bad
Morning all
Currently I have DDG , darmian and Sagna. My issues are Sagna is going to be rotated now and I don’t feel that I need double Utd cover, but I do want 1 from each of city & Utd. My initial reaction was drop darmian & get kolorov but I think there could be better options. So which do you think is best:-
1 ) DDG, B Davis, kolorov leaving 0.3 itb
2) Hart, B Davis, darmian leaving 0.6 itb
3) Hart, dier, darmian leaving nothing
Any opinion appreciated.
Cheers
hammers
I’d go option one pal. I just like Kolarov’s potential for attacking points even if they don’t get the CS.
Considering Ben Davies myself.
Cheers GP, yeah agree on the attacking potential of kolorov.
Tempted by Dier coz he is in midfield but then I suppose that might not last
“if ageuro blanks again this week he’s gone”
If it wasn’t for you guys on here I would have took Aguero out before this game week.
Didn’t captain him though. But from now on I will. I’m sure we all will
This haul had been coming for a few weeks, shame we have internationals now!
Hope he comes back fit!
Morning McButcher.
The B and I are taking all the credit for that 😉
Didn’t captain him either (vice) but Payet did pretty well anyway!
AT Yeah you did to be honest. Thanks haha
Shadow it would be such a shame if he were to get injured.
Ditto
. I was l set to sell him and spend the cash but was swayed by the reasoning of man city have 2 favorable fixtures stick with him for those. I did not have enough faith to give him the armband though
