Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 18
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 18.
Remember back when a midweek fixture was an exciting rarity? It is hardly an uncommon occurrence these days and one to which we shall be treated to quite a few more times before the season is up. There are in fact three of these in the next five GW’s and even one of those (DGW19) straddles a midweek.
As for this one it begins on Tuesday at 6pm as Sheffield and Newcaste unite to see who can score the least goals. Then at 8.15pm Burnley host half the games captain in the shape of Bruno. At the same time Wolves welcome Everton.
Wednesday begins at 6pm with the other halves captain (KdB) hosting Brighton. Spurs (now) welcome a reluctant Fulham at 8.15pm.
Arsenal and Palace see us out on Thursday at 8pm.
And don’t forget that once the above GW ends on Thursday evening the next one begins on Saturday and that one is a double so get your planning sorted early doors!
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.

Hi all, what a mad week! Appreciate all the updates from everyone!
Very unsure what to do with this squad…seems that kdb is a must, and podence (and dcl?!) need replacing. Tempted to WC, is that dumb? Or is a -8 more beneficial here? I think a WC with city cover and the usual suspects could set up for a good long term!
What do we think?
I’d take a few hits to get what you want and keep hold of the WC.
Sure there will be a lot of hits taken this week anyway.
Yeah probably more sensible, cheers GP!
Hello all, what changes should I make here for the double? 1 FT and 0.2 in the bank.
I’m thinking Bellerin >> Stones and Bednarek >> Coufal? Is City vs Villa on for sure?
Thank you!
I could also do Bamford >> Antonio and Bednarek >> Stones
I prefer the initial one I think.
+1 Stones and Coufal
Stones and Coufal.
Thank you all
Would appreciate some help…
I’m planning to play my bench boost chip and was feeling good until the Leeds game got postponed.
I was planning to bring in:
A) Dias and De Bruyne > Dier/Dallas and Salah…
Now I’m wondering whether I should bring in:
B) Dias and Cancelo > Dallas and Dier
Or
C) Dias and Foden > Dier/Dallas and Harrison
What do you think? A, B or C? Or is there a better option?
Here’s my team
I like B there. I wouldn’t take out Salah and Foden to me is still too much of a risk.
+1
Yeah B is the only option I like there.
My FH team for DGW not sure about Goalie. Any advice?
Looks OK to me.
Can you squeeze 0.1 to get Ederson instead of Allison?
On a FH I would be tempted to try and get Lowton to Stones. Kane to Son is an option to free up cash. Not sure Pieters will play both, may be better to have Lowton on the bench and ditch Pieters.
Evening folks, what would you do here? Have 1 ft and 3.8 itb
A. Son to Salah
B. DCL to Vardy
C. Son and Raphinia to Salah and 6.4 mid (thinking El Ghazi)
D. DCL and Raphinia to Antonio and 10.5 mid (thinking Rashford)
For me probably B and bench Raphinha, but not having Salah is a risk. A is also an option.
It is a risk but the way Liverpool have been playing I’m not too worried.
Plus I’m becoming a bit more superstitious as whenever I have Salah, he and Liverpool do terrible. When I sell him he does brilliantly and so do Liverpool. Hence I will happily lose points and ranks if it means Liverpool win haha
Quite like D there.
Yeah that’s one I literally just came up with as I was taking the screenshot. It could work!
D
A I think
So looks like it’s between A and D. Anyone else have any thoughts to settle it?
Was thinking the same on D
Except I only have 6.9. Foden worth a shout?
Hi all! I have 11 DGW players and 4 SGW players, I taking some hits an playing the BB is the best option for me at the moment. I have some potential moves I’d like some feedback on:
A:
Salah to KDB
Adams to Watkins
Meslier to Martinez
-8, leaves me with 0.0 itb and Raphinha and Bamford as SGW players
B:
Robertson to Stones/Cancelo
Meslier to Martinez
Adams to Watkins
Raphinha to Foden
-12, leaves me with 0.9/0.1 itb and Bamford as SGW player.
Thoughts appreciated! Also open to other suggestions.
The advantage of bench boost is negated by taking hits. -4 max for me or just bench boost another time.
Don’t really think I like either option. I’m not really sure I can advocate for a -12. -8 maybe (it’s what I did last week) but the -12 seems way too much. Only thing is I’m not really a big fan of selling Salah for KdB so that is my problem with the -8. I’m not really helping much but can you do Meslier, Robertson and Adams to Martinez, Stones and Watkins?
Cheers guys! I agree the hits may seem a bit much but looking at City’s and Villa’s fixtures after the DGW, I think it’s fine to take hits to bring in players from those teams as it sets up the team for future GWs. A bit skeptical to sell Salah myself but City are in better form than Liverpool at the moment, so I think it makes sense. Possible to do those moves Matt, I’ll consider it.
