Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 1
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 1. As the great Bruce Buffer would say “IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTSSS TTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMMEE!” Here we go, the planning stage is over and the moment has come to test all your pre-season theories. This season we don’t even have to wait until the weekend either, as the season kicks off on a Friday night. The invincible Arsene Wenger and his boys take on the now “back where they belong” Leicester.
Saturday hits us with a lunch time feast as Watford welcome in Liverpool and their high octane attack. Three o’clock has five fixtures on the slate. The Champs grab their first 3 points when they face Burnley, Palace host newcomer Huddersfield, The Toffees tangle with Stoke, Saints pummel Swansea and The Baggies back from vacation finally after leaving in February mix it up with The Cherries. The Saturday fixtures finish up when recently promoted Brighton tries their hand at figuring out why City paid that much for that defence.
Sunday hits us with the last two fixtures. Newcastle reacquaints themselves with the Premier League when they face Harry Kane and company, geez, what a welcome back. The late game pairs up Man United side versus a Hammers team whose big acquisitions were in part, three old Manchester leftovers, Chicha, Zaba and Hart.

Managerial mind games??
Chelsea, leave Morata out, look shocking (even before the sending off), Batshu totally shown up.
Bring Morata when its too late to show the difference if the board ponies up and buys in the players Conte demands.
WHU, no mids on the bench, takes DM captain off & replaces him with a kid who was playing in defence for the U18s a few weeks ago.At Old Trafford! The board meantime fighting shy of paying the asking price for Bilics choice pick DM from Porto
Mmmmm, first two managers to be sacked, or risking it all for the team?
Any Sterling or Iwobi owners out there, their prices are likely to fall tonight.
2 interesting questions: play Mee or Davies in GW2. Cappo Firminio or Lukaku… ?
I’d play Mee over Davies personally. WBA didn’t look that dangerous in attack, and I expect a backlash from Chelsea this weekend.
The captain choice.. is your I’m afraid
I’m struggling with the same question, either could do well.
I would play Mee as they are at home, won against so willl have confidence and WBA don’t score much !
Thx Both. Yes I was thinking that as well.
Yeah I’d play Mee. Is a tough one though
Hmm…Pogba to Mkhi seems so sideways, but the only reason I didn’t pick him over Pogba was his rotation risk. If he keeps playing as he is, surely he can’t be dropped? More attacking than Pogba and set to go up tonight.
Thoughts?
Pogba didn’t do great fantasy wise last season, and Mikhi seems to be carrying a good pre-season over.
However, I think Pogba will push up more this season now they have Matic.
Same value as well, so it’s a tough call. I’d save the FT personally, but go with your gut.
Yeah, its a tough one. Cheers Benny. Raising TV is important early on too though, and I don’t think it’s knee-jerk.
It’s not knee jerk at all.
I have Mikhi personally, but can see the whole Utd midfield doing some damage this season.
It’s just hedging your bets on who will do the most…
Miki is no midfielder. He’s a winger, classed as a mid. I agree with the Pogba assessement you’ve made but for the same price I’d have (and do have) Miki all day.
Sorry but I needed to share this Nice little piece of PL history on this site. As a Dutch person I feel a little Bit proud to Read that the bbc declared this Bergkamp goal as the nicest goal in the history of the PL. We Dutchies are going through a rough Time lately so we like to remember our ancient heros ?

Wolf pack
That was the one I voted for.
Brilliance.
Sorry to post about our old friend again,but to further what Innit said the other day, here he is getting friendly with the locals on another forum.I won’t post about him again but this made me chuckle……
I love the regular updates. Bet he’s so proud of Rooney triple captain
:big-lol:
Plus this way we only get the highlights rather than have to put up with him constantly
I wonder if he uses twitter surely he could take his trolling to that universe. I certainly follow him just to see what skirmishes he get in.
Waxys, miss you buddy! :satansmoking:
I wish he was on Twitter that would be hilarious !
Can someone fill me in? The name isn’t ringing any bells
You missed all the entertainment last season mate.He became a bit of a celebrity on here….
Genuinely don’t know how I missed him. Certainly never saw any absurd transfer/captaincy suggestions haha
Think it was the 2nd half of the season he appeared on hear sharing his wisdom.A troll of the highest order ! Was quite amusing though
There seems to be so many people on those boards yet he still sticks out like a mile even there! I’ve seen a few of his amusing proclamations, he hasn’t mellowed in the least!
Yeah so outrageous that he weren’t even posting for that long yet everyone knew he was. 12 point hit every week yet he was in the top 10k lol
He still persists with the top 10k nonsense to this day. He told someone the other day that he was one of the most consistent FPL players ever with a top 10k finish almost every season and the he had also had the top GW score MANY TIMES!
Problem there lies in the most subtle of replies ever which came from TorresMagic (admin on there). He simply put a straight face emoji – you see, he has his FPL ID from his main account. TM seems to follow him about on there like a carer! Every time he mentions it now he gets the same response. He posted yesterday that he was only watching United because he had Lukaku. TM replied – not on your main account you don’t! Makes me think we could have had a bit more fun with him once we’d found his account too but by that stage I think everybody had just about had enough of him so the sledgehammer approach was probably for the best.
lol I would have found that really amusing
#waxysout is hilarious!!
Haha..i miss hm already..(good riddance)
