Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 18
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 18. And we are back. Again! Get used to the quick turnaround as it is exciting times right now. Presents to buy? Turkeys to prepare? Nah, screw that, it’s football time! Leicester and Palace kick off a bumper weekend that goes all the way through until Monday night this time. They get going at lunch-time on Saturday and are followed by five 3pm games. Saturday evening sees possibly the game of the week as Man City host Spurs in what is a truly mouth-watering clash.
Sunday has two games with Man united visiting Pardew and his West Brom team first, followed by Bournemouth hosting Liverpool. Or at least whichever version of Liverpool Klopp chooses to actually place on the field this time.
We continue through to Monday with Allardyce faced with a home game he is expected to win. Grinding out away draws are more his speciality so this one could be testing as Swansea roll up, legs akimbo.

Any comment on Kane?
Should we keep hold him just cause he got dgw? Else i am already planning to get kdb or silva and still i will have 9.6 itb for striker!
My team
I’m keeping Kane. There just ain’t any alternatives with the strikers. Lukaku don’t seem to move and is out of form, Morata just coming back and has an injury, Lacazette can’t seem to complete 90. Aguero and Jesus are on a job share and don’t get the minutes. So there is Firmino but not everyone is a fan. At least Kane is banging in the odd goal now and again though not justifying the price
Kane is in danger of going down in price so I used that to justify me getting rid of him in the wee small hours last night, and replaced him with Rooney. I now have £7.8m ITB and plan on playing 3-5-2 with an all premium midfield, as that’s where all the points have been coming from lately.
Could work, could turn out to be a terrible mistake but it’s easy enough to bring him back in for the DGW and over the next 3 GW’s I’m comfortable not having him.
What happened to Docoure? Lad got me points first time in 4 GWs and got red flagged.
Lanzini a decent replacement? Got 7.2M
Lanzini looks a decent replacement
He’s suspended B. 5th yellow I believe
Oh makes sense since he completed 90.
Steady on Lanzini, he may well get a 2-match ban for diving.
Thoughts on what to do here. My initial thinking is taking a hit. I have 2 free transfers and 2.2 in the bank.
1) Sterling, Pogba and Jones in for Hazard, RLC and Kiko
2) Coutinho and Sterling in for Hazard and RLC
3) Jones and Christenson in for Kiko and Moreno
4) Smalling and Jones in for a Kiko and Moreno
5) Anything else
I like 3.
Thanks B
+1
3 for me as that gives you 2 top starters and for the other one play the fixtures.
Hi Smash – I think you can’t get away with that defense looking at fixtures. Your front 7 is fine so yeah I’d ship Kiko and Moreno for obvious reasons and look at bringing in Otamendi and perhaps Ogbonna – cheap as chips, 3 CS in 4 and good fixtures for the xmas period. Then try to sub tarkowski, unless you plan to play him on burnley ‘s away games. Keep the faith in your attackers I say, they’ll come good in the next few weeks.
Thanks DMC good advice. Yeah defence is struggling mainly because of the injuries to Moreno and Kiko. Though I’m a bit fearful of playing RLC or DCL every week
Cheers mate. Yeah, tha’s why I suggested Ota as opposed to Jones or Christensen. Otamendi has the attacking prowess that compensates any RLC/DCL possible blanks – both have horrible fixtures in deed. I want to see what Hughton does with Murray now. He took him off in the 60th minute, for the first time, and it wasn’t for fatigue given that he was rested mid week. If Hemed stars the next one he could be a good sub for DCL for the next 4/5 games.
Morning
Thoughts on West Ham and in particular cresswell and Lanzini?
West Ham arexstarting to look good. Quite defensive though . Makusaku has been playing further forward and is 4.4
Good shout, might do this
Or this
1st one I think you need the extra defender well at least 4 playing. I’m not sure who’s the better option Smalling or Jones now
I think Morata can wait don’t see big points away at Everton
Hey guys, bit early to ask for RMT but what do you guys think of the idea of triple city attack? To counter possible rotation I guess I have DCL.
Hazard + RLC —> KDB + Sterling
I may not afford it if the prices increase.
hard to argue against it really COYS
Yeah I guess I’ll give it a go. Too many points left on the table each week.
I see a lot of people raving about Lanzini, but isn’t Arnie a better shout? He seems to be playing centre forward and is finding a bit of form again. Lanzini does seem to be the heart and soul of their attack, and will undoubtably get more assists, but won’t Arnie be the one putting the ball in the net more often than not?
Hey Banjo – after watching MOTD., Arna could have had 3-4
Yea that was what got me thinking. He seems to be much more involved in actually scoring the goals.
Yeah I think Arnie is a better shout
I’m seriously tempted to ditch Richarlison for him.
