Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 19
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 19. Our Christmas fun really turns up the heat this week with a 2-day game-week, a Friday start and a 9 game bonanza on Saturday. Our Friday kick off promises goals and points as Arsenal host free-scoring Liverpool at the Emirates. Saturday is about as full-on as we get in FPL. Chelsea and Everton kick us off at lunchtime when they meet at Goodison. Six 3pm matches follow as Brighton host Watford, Bournemouth take the daunting trip to Man City, Huddersfield take the long trek to Southampton, Stoke host West Brom and Swansea host Palace.
We still have two matches to go. The early evening match up sees Spurs go to Burnley before Leicester host Man Utd.
Plenty to enjoy and you still have Sunday to finish your shopping!
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.

Mr Bean
Looks like a Salah/Firminio combination is gonna be needed again to get some decent bonus…
ATAEman
Aye. Was just thinking this.
Kane +Firmino feels like the prime front 2
inittowinit
Intermediate averages are in.
Smash10
How is Can on for 3 bonus
inittowinit
He’s on for 1 according to that.
Mr Bean
Has changed to Can 3, Firminio 2 and Coutinho 1
inittowinit
How bizarre! 6 different goalscorers and 6 different assisters and he got 1 assist out of the 12 things and in the lesser category.
Cookie
Very bizarre that an attacker didn’t get max bps in an end to end 3-3 draw!
Pancho
Init, actually Salah is the only one with a goal and assist in the game. How he doesn’t have 3 bonus is beyond me… Maybe the missed chance that Cech saved in the first half really counted against him? I don’t know…
Pancho
And on closer look, so did Firmino. Feels like the two of them should be on 3 & 2 respectively
inittowinit
Firmino got 1 of each too.
Pancho
Ah Init, I see what you were talking about. Not that no one had 2 means of attacking return. My bad… :/
inittowinit
Who got MOTM on Sky? FotMob gave it to Can. Only saw bits of the 2nd half so couldn’t comment on performances myself.
NZ Alex
But Can. getting 3BPS. Seriously. Full stop.
Mr Bean
Firminio got a goal and assist as well, which is 33 BPS on its own, so him finishing on 35 is more surprising than Salah on 31.
Cookie
Salah suffers due to missed chances
inittowinit
Which, as I say every week, is a ridiculous measure to use to deduct points.
Cookie
Yep agree with you Snowflake
inittowinit
Thanks, Angel.
Mr Bean
^ well that’s cute 😉
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
We should have a Friday match every week.
Loved that.
charanraj
Yes.. What a great start to festive holidays..!!
inittowinit
:snorty: We really, really shouldn’t!
Pancho
GP, I’m with you on Friday matches! Love them!
Init, why do you despise them so much?
inittowinit
Because it basically give us 1 working day (17 hours) less to cram all the articles in. Add in a Monday game on the same week as per this one just gone and it’s a nightmare! We’ve had 4 days to fit in Fixtures, Capos, Tips, Predictions, Team News and Live Match Chat.
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Yeah I just like football. Soz. 😉
NZ Alex
Your not really sorry though are you Craig? 😉 It was a cracking game!
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Of course not :winktongue:
NZ Alex
Good man, you all well Craig?
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
All well Alex thanks.
Great to see you back!
NZ Alex
Yer been pretty slack. ‘Must do better’ as my reports used to say! Any Q’s for the pod mate?
NZ Alex
Morning all, to say I’ve been MIA is taking the piss but thought i’d pop in to say hello. Hows everyone going? Terrible start to the week for me 10 -4!
inittowinit
Just a bit
Still got a stunning lack of perspective as well I see, you’ve had 1 player play, Salah I assume, and he scored you 10 points, heck do you want?!
How are you mate? Good to see you. I assume from the ‘good morning’ that you haven’t ventured back home this time?
NZ Alex
Hey Init, Im all about feeling sorry for myself and whinging on chats about how crap I am at this game. Half empty kinda guy!
Yer im very well thanks mate and yourself? Still in sunny NZ for this year. Back with the family next year. We are up to 3 little ‘un’s now so it gets more expansive and more painful each time we come!
inittowinit
So to speak :hippo:
NZ Alex
inittowinit
Yes, you’d need to scroll up more though 😉
HL [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
Suffering from the same (MIA) sindrome,myself…
Slowly getting back to full speed…
How’s things at ur end of the world NZ?
NZ Alex
Hello HL, how are you fella? All well here, relaxing on holiday now for 7 weeks (the life of a teacher!) . Building a new house so thats keeping us busy. Hows tricks with you?
NZ Alex
Random post; Im on the Fantasy Football Surgery podcast tonight and we are looking for questions, hit me up below if you have any!
inittowinit
How many DGW22 players are you all looking at and will you be hitting to accomodate any?
NZ Alex
Cheers Init
inittowinit
Need any more?
NZ Alex
Sure mate!
inittowinit
Ok…
You, GP and Elle ran a wonderful concept last season called ‘The Community Team’. GP was the lead on that, I think it’s fair to say, and gave it up as he felt it all too time consuming, which is totally understandable, and he felt that it was impacting on his own FPL performance. And sure enough he’s picked up to the point where he is having his best FPL season ever, with a great rank. So, what’s yours and Elle’s excuses for this season’s performances so far?!
😉
Joking aside I have no other questions really – if you do get to say that earlier one on the pod then please feel free to say Hi to the guys from myself and all at FF247, I haven’t spoken to any of the Surgery lads for a while but FPL can make life very busy, to the point that I rarely speak to my wife (sometimes a blessing), so tell them not be offended, I am still listening and they’re doing a cracking job.
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
NZ Alex
I have no excuse, Craig is just a far superior manager to me
The concept was cool and I have to say we owe a debt of gratitude to Craig as he drove it and made it the success it was.
I will certainly pass on your best wishes pal and answer your question!
HL [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
Is 3-5-2 (investing big in a super midfield) the way forward this season or should we give more time to our super-expensive forwards ?
NZ Alex
Cheers HL, will pass on the question
NZ Alex
Few more hours for last minute questions for the pod!?
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
I’m drawing a blank just now Alex honestly.
I’m sure there will be plenty to chat about.
Good luck on it.
Cookie
Great to see you Kiwi, we miss you on here pal. You too Hannibal!
Right, questions.
KDB or Hazard? Or is there a case for both with the misfiring strikers?
Is it time to ditch Burnley defenders?
Time to sell Kane after DGW22?
What is more entertaining – watching Liverpool or Arsenal defend?
NZ Alex
Alright Big Blue, hows it going mate? Good to be back. Will get your questions answered Cooks. Especially the pool v gunners amateur hour!
Mr Bean
So this is my 2nd team’s, cup opponent’s, 1st GW score this season…
inittowinit
Mine could actually end up being very close this week, despite him being ranked 3m odd! We have very similar ish teams. Granted, he has a player starting I’ve never even heard of!
