Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 14
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 14
With barely a moment to catch up or give any real thought to a transfer we are back again as we begin on Saturday and end on Monday with a chance for a quick breather before Boxing Day, but take it while you can as once next Saturday is here we then have a game or more every day on 9 of the next 10 days, spanning multiple GW’s. New Years Eve being the only one sans any action.
On that note we shall give you a quick update on our intentions in regards to publishing articles over this busy period. In short we shall have a bumper Christmas Tips on the 22nd with a Site Team edition on Xmas Eve. Beyond that it will probably just have to be ‘Live Match Chats’ with everybody fending for themselves / helping each other out, as the GW’s do literally seem to fall over each other from one day to the next, allowing us scant opportunity to say anything meaningful in-between. We do intend to post a brief FF247 Site Team update each time but there will be none of the usual Fixtures, Tips, Capos etc as there simply isn’t time or room. Plus we like our writers to have a good rest occasionally too!
GW14 itself begins on Saturday at 12.30 pm and ends on Monday night. The full line-up is in the picture below. Just also bear in mind, to complicate matters even more, that there are midweek Milk Cup games which involve Newcastle, Arsenal, Man City, Spurs, Everton and Man United.
The GW14 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 14 from all at FF247!
Thanks for reading Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 14.

Little Red Lacazette
That goal took Taylor from 11 points down to 5
Tornado
Yeah, that’s really disappointing.
Loud Atlas
Argh…these last 2 GWs have been awful.
Colriles
I wasn’t able to follow or watch so I was happy with the 5! Until I logged on here, of course 😉
Smash
What’s better going forward KDB and Raphinia or Son and Grealish. Will give KDB the Newcastle game? Son and Grealish would involve a -4. Stones will be coming in for James
SAFs_hairdryer
Son and Grealish for me
IvanTheTerrible
+1
Little Red Lacazette
+2
constantine
Son and Grealie. Anytime
abhirup780
I am going with KDB and Raphinha as I am going for BB DGW19 and FH 28. Raphinha has DGW and KDB has excellent follow-up fixture.
It depends upon which GW you are going to FH. If you are FH in GW18 then I’ll definitely prefer KDB and Raphi.
abhirup780
FH *18
Stone Frog
Son for me, but not sure on Grealish, fixtures look bad and due 2 low scoring weeks before he halls again
constantine
Come on Cresswell.. :wink2:
Smash
Chilwell off injured
Tornado
I have Justin on my bench but he won’t come on because of Chilwell’s 7 minutes on the pitch. I simply cannot catch a break this season.
SAFs_hairdryer
I feel your pain. That happens most weeks for me. This week I chose Captain between Kane, Bruno and Salah. Lovely 4 points.
OddDane
Of course, my last ray of hope:rant: :dash:
Loud Atlas
Gavy
Makes may forward plans harder for gw 19.Bowen brace to save my gw
Mitro
FFS! All out on 89!
Another injury to deal with as well!
IvanTheTerrible
This is what I am thinking. They are dropping like hot bricks in every game, typical winter time injures . BGW/DGW is more than three weeks ago. Leaving any plans for just before it happens.
SAFs_hairdryer
89 is a very tidy score. I need a 30pt haul from Zouma to get that
IvanTheTerrible
SAF, I am on 55 atm with only Zouma playing as well.
Let’s hope he pulls one of his rare goals at some point.
Raziel
Stfu Mitro. I’m on 50 something and lost Chiwell. You’re far above average.
Raziel
:biggun: :rofl:
inittowinit Neymar (c) (36 points) (3 goals & a pen assist)
:rofl: I was waiting for that reaction from someone! He knows full well what he’s doing, ‘woe betide me’ but ‘look at my score’ and all that…
Raziel
I knew that was his aim. Why you think I did it? Plus the rofl smiley part comment. :buba:
Zed Leppelin
Nice to be a Chilwell/James owner… Already have had 4 Chelski players injured this season, Pulisic/Ziyech/Chilwell/James :wacko:
Aarron13
Justin is my automatic Sub for James can’t complain really
inittowinit Neymar (c) (36 points) (3 goals & a pen assist)
We know you’re not complaining. You just keep repeating the same thing in response to people no matter what their original question! :punish:
Anyone got a medal for Aarron for his sub coming on? :rofl:
Gear
Has anyone created a good draft team for DGW 19? Looking for some inspiration!
inittowinit Neymar (c) (36 points) (3 goals & a pen assist)
Using which chip?
Gear
If you were free hitting
Kralin
I’m planning to free hit in 19 but haven’t given the team I’ll put out then a second’s thought.
Mainly because I haven’t played my first wildcard yet, plus I daresay injuries and other issues will have cropped up before then.
Also note that the UK is likely – very likely – to be in a full lockdown by then so a lot of this talk may be slightly academic. Hopefully the footie will continue but we’ll see.
inittowinit Neymar (c) (36 points) (3 goals & a pen assist)
I haven’t then. I’m looking at potentially using that one in 18 for the blanks.
Tornado
Hey guys!
I know everyone has different approach when it comes to BGW & DGW but I genuinely don’t know what to do with my team. What is the best possible strategy here, as I currently have only 5 players participating in the BGW (Kane, Son, Podence, Martinez, DCL)?
inittowinit Neymar (c) (36 points) (3 goals & a pen assist)
FH 18 and build for 19 in the background in the meantime. With possibly a BB in that. That’s what I’m looking at anyway.
Tornado
Cheers, init!
What about BGW/DGW later on in the season? Don’t you think it’s worth keeping a chip like FH/BB, or is it better to use them now?
Or maybe FH and BB now and WC to attack the latter DGW.
I tried to create some sort of FH draft for BGW18 but it doesn’t look too well haha
inittowinit Neymar (c) (36 points) (3 goals & a pen assist)
Without knowing what is is actually on the horizon I’d say WC for the later one prior to it and maybe TC on it. Or alternatively plan for just 11 in 19 and TC in that and then WC ahead of the later one and BB in that. Probably easier to do the latter actually as BB’ing in the 19 one looks problematic in terms of spreading funds given the ‘need’ for Spurs.
Tornado
Yeah, I think I am leaning towards FH in GW18 and TC in GW19. But I keep going round in circles. :wacko:
Aarron13
Gameweek 18 best for free hit?, Double game weeks later on in the season won’t there?
Kralin
Yes, like GW19.
Aarron13
Game week 18 only 5 fixtures isn’t there?
Tornado
Aaaron, I only have 5 players playing in GW18. That’s why I think I will probably go for FH in GW18.
Kralin
The reasoning – or I daresay one of the reasonings – for FH in 18 is to enable managers to build a strong squad for GW19 – a squad they can possibly bench boost.
It’s a good idea and I can see its appeal. It’s not so much about 18 as about making 19 as good as possible (and hopefuly being well up on whatever the average is that week).
Aarron13
I have 4 in gameweek 18
I’m considering Free hit myself in gameweek 18
Kralin
As with all these weeks, there are various schools of thought. Mine, driven mainly by laziness and lack of moral fibre, is to wildcard after the next GW and ensure I have reasonable GW18 coverage. Then I can ignore any injuries / games suspended etc in the exciting run up to GW19 and just binge on GW19 players with a free hit.
That will leave me BB and TC for some sunny day.
Tornado
Cheers, Kralin!
I guess it really depends on what our current squads are and what chips we have in hand. You are a wise/lazy man, so I am sure you’ll be alright!
