Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 2
None of that Friday night nonsense this week. Our game-week kicks off at lunchtime on Saturday with Cardiff hosting Newcastle, a game that has relegation 6 pointer written all over it. We then have four games at the traditional kick off time of 3pm. Everton entertain Southampton. It’s a battle of the animals at The King Power stadium as the Foxes host Wolves. It’s an all London affair with Spurs playing host to Fulham, while Bournemouth travel to West Ham. Saturday is brought to a conclusion with the game of the weekend when Chelsea host Arsenal at 5:30pm.
Sunday brings us another three games. Burnley host Watford in a game that is unlikely to cure any hangovers. Huddersfield will be hoping to improve on their opening day result but that’s unlikely as they entertain Manchester City. If you’re still hungover come 4pm you might as well switch off the TV as Brighton host Jose and his merry men.
Our game-week is brought to an end with the first Monday Night Football of the season and it has the potential to be a cracker as Liverpool travel to London to face Crystal Palace.

Hi all,
Glad to have kept the armband on Kun after all the speculation yesterday, a respectable 62 points with PVA, Salah, Zaha and Firmino to go, not too shabby hopefully. Took a hit last night to avoid price changes so does my team look set for next week barring injuries, nothing ITB…
Cheers in advance
Yes it does look set and not just for next week but for some weeks after that as well
Cheers Dutch, will probably need to sort Daniels out in a week or 2 but no biggie
Looks ideal. Just better hope the opposition don’t attack down the left wing
Ha ha, yeah your right, It does look a tad exposed, may need to find a decent right back unless Richarlison/Salah can start to track back more often
If I was to use my wildcard now I would go for something like this anyhow.
Would rather you have Ederson in goal so would want to lose a million somewhere, somehow.
But overall, very nice! Like that you have the option of four or three at the back
Cheers mate, nearly put Ederson in last night instead the Olonso transfer but prefer to spend the cash on attacking prospects and hope for save points from cheap gk’s, cheers for the input
Guys im thinking alonso and richarlison in for shaw and erik and gthen next week bsilva and ings in for neves and arnie.
Any thoughts?
Experience has taught me that planning more than 1 week ahead is almost impossible due to injuries, red cards etc.
I do believe that Richarlison and Alonso can outscore Shaw and Erik.
Cheers bud.
I did that same 2 transfers
I think it will be worth it to have Alonso over Shaw, and Richarlison is in form right now.
Hope you’ve all scored well so far. Hoping my Pool trio can propel me up the ranks later!
shut up, i’m on 39
Ahh, Cookie! Long season ahead though. See Hughes’s goal? Need a bit more of that in your team 😉
yeah saw it, people saying he should have been red-carded before that!
You don’t even own him!
That’s my boy 😉
Haha true, and I don’t intend to!
So far so good.
I think most people will have 3-5 players still to play. The ones with Salah as captain will be the ones propelling the most
Yep, not me. No Palace players starting either. I’m not too concerned though. Hard to see all five doing well!
Hey guys, who do I replace? King, Daniels or B. Silva? And with whom with? Already did Sanchez to Mane Friday. Or was it early Saturday before the games.
Or Peltier, I mean. Not Daniels. Peltier needs to go first if any defender.
I’m keeping faith in Bilva for the time being! Presume nothing itb so cant upgrade King? The downgrade candidates are probably Wilson who’s a bit sideways or Ings who everyone is liking atm. Depends what you wanna do with Peltier …if just cheap bench fodder Bennet of Wolves seems the only other £4 that’s playing but he could lose out with Dendonker coming in, just go for someone with low ownership so they don’t lose you money! If wanted someone to rotate the Ings would allow up to £5.5 and with that you could get either Luiz, Monreal, Periera or Shaw/Bailly!?
All your other defenders Have a good run of fixtures so no immediate need to get rid off Peltier.
Another Dutchie? Aah thanks, was thinking the same. So either King or ummm B.Silva/Stephens. I have 1 ft left.
Yes another Dutchie!
I would definitely keep hold of B. Silva
Stephens and Peltier will be permanent bench warmers who might come in with a point or 2 so for now no need to waste a transfer on them.
Which leaves Daniels and King who still have a rather good run of fixtures coming up again not really a need to transfer either.
I do understand the disappointment in King as I have him as well. I am going to give King 1 more game keep hold of my transfer and if he under delivers again he will be out
Depends how you want to play it this early in the season. If you do not want unnecessary hits, then this team is good to go for GW 3. If you’re okay with a hit, you could consider getting Pedro/Wilson instead of B.Silva/King! Both these moves will save you some funds to upgrade Peltier later.
King to Zaha an option? Don’t need another pro defender, budget defender for Peltier will do.
That’s the way I’m leaning, Raz.
Zaha is the man to go to with the fixtures they have. ALl sort of depends on tonight, how he plays.
Last night FFFix predicted that Aguero and Mendy (who I have) and Alonso (who I bought) would go up. And they were right. They predicted that Davies and King would go down. And they were wrong. So I was wondering whether FFFix are good at predicting rises but not so good at predicting falls. Here is the answer…
Their accuracy improves over the season as they get more data. Falls in price are tougher to predict because the formula is more complex than for rises.
This is good for us King holders haha
68 pts so far this GW with Salah, Robertson, Zaha & Wan-Bissaka to play.
Took -8 point hit to get Mendy, Alonso, Pedro & Wilson in last night to avoid price change. Current lineup looks as attached. Do you guys reckon I should avoid the point hits this early in the season and go for the WC instead? With WC, I can further make a few changes. Although I am pretty happy with this squad for the next few GWs.
Please suggest what would be ideal in this scenario? Thanks!

Your current team is not in need of a wildcard, or more changes for the next rounds. Stick with the -8
Cheers…I also do not want to waste my WC this early. -8 will not hurt me a lot in my mini-league considering I am currently 2nd placed and have 4 more players to play tonight!
I suppose sticking with -8 is worth it for now!
Yeah Porcelain.
I would stick with the damage that’s done and leave the Wildcard. But a -8 to bring in players just because their price may change before the end of the gameweek seems kneejerk to me.
Not that I don’t love Alonso and Mendy but Pedro is far from assured to play each week and Wilson will inevitably dry up and pass his points round the rest of the team, to King probably.
