Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 12
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 12. Friday night football is back! Don’t get too excited…it’s a bottom of the table clash as Norwich host Watford. Given how bad these two teams are it could be anything from a scoreless draw to a 5-5 cracker. The safe bet is a boring scoreless draw.
Saturday kicks off at lunchtime as an in form Chelsea team host a Palace side who have taken one point from their last three games. 3pm sees a battle between two teams in freefall as Burnley host West Ham. Bournemouth face the long trip north to play Newcastle. Southampton host Everton in a game that will challenge Friday night’s game for the worst game of the weekend! John Lundstram travels to London to face Spurs. Saturday draws to a conclusion as free scoring Leicester host a clueless Arsenal side.
There are two games at 2pm on Sunday as United host Brighton and Wolves host Villa in what is likely to be a fiery Midlands derby. They have unquestionably saved the best for last as at 4:30pm Liverpool host Man City in a game that will play a large part in deciding where the PL title ends up.
The games in full…

FPL FIXTURE TRACKER
FIXTURE TRACKER LINK
Bernardo Silva really ruined it for Robbo there! FPL aside — there’ve been points aplenty this weekend — what a huge match that was. They keep on saying “Liverpool will never get a better chance to win the PL than this” and “no side 8 points ahead by November has failed to win the PL before” but we’ve heard that all before…
Oh, by the way, I’ve got my squad in a right ol’ mess recently. 1 FT and just £2.7 to fix either Dendoncker or Martinelli when the looming IB has played out. Any objections to finally playing my Wildcard now? I’m torn. Absences of Leicester and Chelsea players are hurting my ranking.
can you do martinelli to jimmy, james?
I’m now £0.1 short, eresh, sadly. Just imagine the triple Wolves attack… :rofl:
Actually, if I don’t Wildcard tonight, I’d probably better off in selling Dendoncker for Mount or Tielemans instead. Mid-price midfielders have surpassed the mid-price forwards lately.
id WC then james
james – yes I’d play the wc. Might as well.
Which of my players would you fancy keeping hold of?
I’m currently thinking that both of my goalkeepers, Robertson, Lundstram, Vardy, Abraham, Salah and most likely KDB could all stay. Sterling —> Mané won’t enhance my budget for fixing the fodder. It’s a tricky one.
hey james. Rico can prob stay too. think both City mids can be sacrificed – say Mane/Maddison over Sterling and KDB allows some reinvestment elsewhere
You’re right, Dreamers, and I’d forgotten all about Rico — he’s fine for his modest price — cheers for your help.
I was punished by KDB in so many Gameweeks before squeezing him in, so I’ll struggle to let him go, but perhaps a few IB player injuries will simplify matters later and make my mind up.
james
I count 5 changes (your outfield bench , Traore and Maritinelli) I would make and possibly Salah to Mane too. You may also wish to drop a City midfielder as well short term so that possibly is seven changes. I’d be tempted to WC.
I’ve been tempted (for quite some time) too. That’s now 3 votes in favour of it…
After a quick play, I’ve made ~5 changes, but my budget’s frustrating. Do you reckon that said bench upgrades are worth it? I usually like my Wildcards to make major impacts on my team’s core players. Traoré doesn’t have my alternatives at his price.
hi james. make salah a chelsea player (pulisic), upggrade traore and improve the defence?
Yeah I agree with eresh – don’t look for a like for like on Traore. Rebalance your investments throughout the positions.
Jimenez would be in mine for what it’s worth.
Moving on Salah just prior to his infamous hat-trick last season still haunts many of us here (myself included) to this day, but as a long-term squad redistribution, you’re both probably right. I’m activating my first Wildcard tonight…
Many thanks to both of you.
planning early for gw13 but wont commit the moves now. 2ft and 0.1itb. thinking sterling to tielemans/maddison/martial and pieters to robertson. any other moves you would suggest?
I’m having doubts over Sterling too. That said, in the long-run, I still see him as a 200+ pointer. Any number of chances were squandered this evening; he’s looked really dangerous. Salah’s probably worth your consideration too.
cheers james
hi Eresh
I would lose KDB over Sterling. Your moves seem good. Pulisic maybe someone on the radar too
hi dreamers. with 3 chelsea players already, ill probably can think about mount to pulisic in gw14
No other big issues I can see eresh. Those seem reasonable.
cheers GP
who do u like more between maddison, martial and tielemans GP?
I’m ruling out Martial as I can’t bring myself to trust Manchester United. For every Brighton, there’s a Bournemouth!
I think Maddison shades Tielemans right now – even being more expensive (he has more points in fewer minutes) – but in truth, they are both excellent options.
thanks for your opinion GP and good point about Manu. you made any early plans yet for gw13?
I’ve had a rough couple of FPL weeks relatively speaking, so I’m happy for the international break.
I’m not even thinking about GW13 yet no.
Hi all,
I need a replacement for Mendy. Choices (early) are
Tomori – already have Abraham and Mount. Would mean I would need to sell Mount if want Pulisic. Also they play City next.
Soy – already have Vardy and Maddison. Means cant get Tielemans.
Janmaat – next 2 are decent but some hard ones are coming up
Others?
Hi Dreamers,
Ben Chilwell is the correct answer here I think (or Pereira if you have some cash banked).
is he worth the additional 0.9 over Soy GP? He has 4 goals/assists but 3 came in one game.
I watched them last night and he and Pereira were really advanced. I’d love to find out their touches in the opposition box, they’re almost wingers in this formation.
they were – but it isn’t hugely translating into points like Liverpools fb’s
They both have more than Trent so far dreamers.
And Pereira has more than both.
True. My question is more Soy v chilwell now. The extra funds is appealing.
Hey dreamers, its Soy for me. Dont know how he wasn’t given a peno in his last match. Looks good in set pieces too. I think vardy and maddy are ok cover up top.
Lundstram has as many points as Kun. Lolz. People who don’t have him yet, should probably be ashamed to call themselves fpl manager. Discuss. :popcorn:
would you start lundstram against manu in 2 weeks time raz?
Not Raz but i started him v Spurs who are better.
He could have had another two yesterday.
He plays against everyone!
Discussed.
I am always going to play him, all my defenders are cheap so no one to replace him with.
Maybe they had more pressing transfers. Maybe they thought it was a flash in the pan. Maybe it is.
Not at the moment. His confidence is sky high. His runs are great.
Or are you just trolling B? Most likely this I imagine!
Is it time to get rid of Kun & Yam if so who City do have a decent run of fixtures ???
71 all out.
Disappointed TAA didn’t get owt and looks like it’s time for Sterling or KDB to go. And Cantwell but he’ll probably have to wait.
Good score Shadow 70 for me if I was going to get rid of one of those it would be KDB
Good scores Wafflez, Dreamers & Stone Frog green arrows on the way about time
Great score ended up on 75 and a green arrow
Nice Wafflez. I’m still north of 300k rank – fix saying 315k – which is over 300k rise. Its still shite but a big improvement
Is fix any good? No harm giving up log in details?
81 (-4) here. Good week
77 all out for me. Finally a decent rank rise I hope.
