Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 1
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 1.
We hope you enjoyed your long summer break. Ahem, let’s try that again. Anyway, you get the picture.
We hope this finds you and all your loved ones relatively safe and well. And welcome back to Live Match Chat. For those of you new to it it’s basically our version of Soccer Saturday but without any annoying flat earthers, big nosed scousers or smarmy Scotsmen. Oh, hang on…
The new season kicks off on Saturday lunchtime with a newly bullish Arsenal taking a trip to see whether Fulham learned any lessons from the last time they mixed it with the big boys.
This is followed by just the one 3pm game as Palace host Southampton.
Saturday finishes with the Champions Liverpool welcoming Leeds back in to the big time at 5.30pm and then Newcastle go to West Ham at 8pm.
On Sunday we have two games beginning with newcomers West Brom stepping back up to host Leicester. Followed by two stalwarts as Everton go to their bogey team Spurs.
Monday is unusual (what isn’t these days) as we have two 8pm games. Brighton host a new look Chelsea team and Sheffield United welcome Wolves.
It is of course a reduced GW in that both Manchester clubs were given a break after their European adventures disasters and subsequently Burnley and Villa have the week off too.
The games in full…
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 to absolutely everyone for Gameweek 1 from all at FF247!

So is Firmino now just a fancy and more classy version of Heskey these days
For me Firmino is still one of liverpool’s key players! He’s just a really bad fanasty option.
Heskey weren’t a bad player
What’s a ‘Heskey’?
100% this.
morning Smash..for me Everything evolve around Firmino..he’s the cog in Pool’s chain..doesn’t score as munch as he used too..he’s the link between midfield and the front..not so good fantasy wise anymore but in real life first on Pool’s teamsheat imo..had one big chance which i can recall.. one on one with the keeper..Firmino has far more class then Heskey..and more important..Heskey were a more out and out striker but Sir Bobby is like a striker/defender/midfield maestro and general in LFC colours..imo..
:meeting:
The plan was to just survive gw1 with Bruno and kdb already in the team. But so far i’m in pretty bad shape. But with 25 points including bench points and with an average of 27 i guess it could be worse. Hoping that Werner comes to save the day…
How is everyones game plan working out so far?
I am one of the people with Salah in my team so delighted!
Going to be shipping out abu for kdb or Bruno next week. Very jealous you have both. I am think bruno, and if so making him cap.
Ings did nothing for me yesterday, so I’m happy to do the move to Martial at some point (before any price changes).
Werner Cap is a good move!
did have one great chance at the death though..but straight ay the keeper..Palace should thank Guaita for having all 3 points..
Think he had the second most amount of shots in the box yesterday so prob unlucky but Martial was always the plan
I am OK and already did my Son -> Bruno I had planned all along. Keeping Salah and Auba for now on my team. May do Auba -> KDB after next GW.
Let’s hope Son doesn’t score a hat trick then
Morning all I took Bruno out last minute for Son because there’s a rumour he can’t play in first game as he’s quarantined anyone any news
He was back in training recently, so he’s probably available to play.
Has that been confirmed LA? I think there was a doubt as to when that pic was taken, saying that I would be surprised and disappointed if he wasn’t available.
Christ Cookie I just made the change before your comment ha :biggun:
To be quite honest, Fix are reporting the first price changes will not be before Monday or Tuesday so there is/was no need to go so early!
I don’t trust the price changes after the fist GW they seem to always happen before they say
Cookie, apparently Bruno posted on his instagram that he was back training yesterday.
Great news Kop big day yesterday the mighty whites gave you a run for your money
I didn’t see it Silvers but I heard we were a shambles at the back. I’m not surprised you gave us a good game.
Yeah, I had doubts over the photo, too. It appears he came back before the quarantine measures came into place:
https://onefootball.com/en/news/photo-bruno-fernandes-back-in-training-after-being-given-quarantine-green-light-31018093
Fernandes has been given the green light to get back to business with United after beating the Government’s new quarantine rules regarding UK arrivals from Portugal which came into force at 04:00 Sunday morning; Fernandes arrived back on English soil the day before.
can anyone help? how do I post my team on this page/
Take a picture of your team (a screenshot), then in the ‘upload image section’ below the ‘Post Comment’ button click ‘Choose files’. Pick your team picture then click ‘Post Comment’.

can’t get it to work. Keep getting error note.
Below the “Post Comment” button, there is a “Browse” button that you can click and upload your team image file.
To take a screenshot on a laptop/computer, you can use the print screen button and obtain an image that way but I prefer i screen grab tool like Gyazo.
Well, that first day was quite something!
Wilson looks electric at Newcastle. Can’t wait for that Fraser-Wilson combo to return.
Leeds and Liverpool both looked crap at the back (Meslier looks handy) – at least Leeds can blame the absence of Cooper .
Salah looked like he had a point to prove yesterday. Loved the way he slapped the ball away after scoring his first penalty.
Electric is a bit strong but he looked decent. Looks like the Potentially the Newcastle player to own. Yeah Liverpool looked a bit at sea at the back. First game back and all that though I’m sure they will sort that out. Will be interesting considering they play Chelsea and Arsenal next
Haha, I only watched the highlights, and it’s no fun to say he looked decent. Probably wouldn’t have got a reply if I’d just said he was good 😉
I think Salah’s new haircut is helping him……he’s more streamlined….
Jeff Hendrick looked lively yesterday. He won’t get a goal and an assist every week but at £5.0m he’s worth keeping an eye on.
I think he has competition from Fraser, Almirón and Joelinton though. At that price I prefer certainty of minutes.
That’s very true. Not sure about Joelinton though, he’s cack!
But Joelinton has the famous Newcastle number 9 shirt
Agreed, Kop. I’d have thought he would shift into CM and Fraser on the wing but haven’t followed Hendrick closely!
They have quite a lot of options there. I think he played well but will be in and out of the side
:acute:
When I plan to take out Auba next week after West Ham it’s going to be interesting what City player to go for if KDB is 11.6 and Sterling who is not likely to rise at 11.5
