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.

Can anyone add to my David v Bernardo debate please:
David;
Pros – good ‘form’, low ownership so will rise quickly, had a rest so probably safe short term, proven goals and assists will be an asset to cover loss of kbd
Cons – more expensive, older so might need more rest, messes up my mendy plans
Bernardo;
Pros – cheaper and fits my other transfer plans, good goal and assist record for minutes played, positive comments from Pep, younger so shouldn’t have fitness issues
Cons – played 2 in a row so maybe due a rest, bandwagon could fall apart if he doesn’t deliver 2 weeks in a row, played right wing back
Giggy
To be honest I would drop both atm.
Mendy and Aguero for city cover
Ederson if you want all 3.
inittowinit
I’m going without City mids for now until we know more. Logic says that Dilva should be more nailed now with KDB out as Pep will want a dominant ball player in there to dictate the play / rhythm. As ‘fall back’ guys go he’s about as good as you could ever wish for.
Giggy
Whom would you consider for better points return for next 5 GWs
Luiz or Monreal!
Nice fixtures for both.
Dutch-Delight
Luiz
Smash
Both are decent options. They play similar teams as well. Monreal maybe shades it on fixtures
inittowinit
Chelsea feel a bit more settled in terms of being able to adapt to the new managers approach. Feels like the Arsenal boys may take a bit longer if he insists on this playing out from the back approach? That said I didn’t actually see the game last weekend in full and I assume you probably did. What were your thoughts / conclusions from it?
Giggy
Arsenal will definitely not get cleansheets looking at the past 2 games.They are not playing solid for full 90 minutes and will slip goals.
I am willing to bring monreal as he is only natural LB left hence nailed starter and might get assist while going forwaRd.
I think Arsenal will outscore their opponents and win next coming fixtures with probable CS in 2 home matches.
Dutch-Delight
You just talked yourself in to having Monreal
Giggy
Yea can decide really but will wait until later this weeK.
theswirly
PVA triple captained Lukaku this gameweek!
Dutch-Delight
That is one almighty punt
Dutch-Delight
Actually if that is not enough he also benched Trent Alexander and Mane. I’m not sure what is worse.
charanraj
He must really hate Liverpool’s chances against palace…
theswirly
He might have a policy like Begovic does of benching players he’s up against in real life
specialK
Is Alonso worth taking a hit for?
Dutch-Delight
It depends who are you taking out?
specialK
James Tomkins I would think, have Palace cover in Wan-Bissika. That price tag though.. phew!
Dutch-Delight
let me stick to my rule:
-4 for a defender = no
On average he scored 12 points per game
12 -4 (point hit)is 8
8-4 (clean sheet gone) is 4
4-2 (Tomkins plays for 90 minutes) = 2
Is Tomkins capable of a clean sheet against Watford?
If your answer is yes keep tomkins
If your answer is no go for Alonso
specialK
thats a great way of looking at it. I’ll see how they do tonight thanks so much Dutch!
Dutch-Delight
You are welcome
banjomaker
I took a hit for him with Davies on his way out. For me it depends on whether you’ll still be able to reach him after price rises. If not then it could be worth it. If price changes don’t affect things then it’s not worth it.
charanraj
Amazingly had a great start this year. Presently top of FF247 regulars league and other mini leagues…never ever I thought I would be even close to the top…thanks to so many inputs and great articles by you guys..:p
Need a suggestion. I had Mikhi in my line up…he gave some points in gw2. Was planning to change him to Pogba after this GW2. Shall I hold on to him or lose him to get in Pogba? Or wait and give him one more GW.?
Thanks and cheers.
Dutch-Delight
Arsenal’s games are getting easier. Hold on to him.
charanraj
Yea. Thanks .needed some more assurance..;)
Dutch-Delight
Arsenal’s games are getting easier. Hold on to him
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
You need to ride Mkhi out now at least with these fixtures. Besides, I am a Pogba owner and I am bit concerned about him. 2 goals from Pens is great, but that will not continue. I rather own Mkhi going into GW3.
And Congrats on our ranking!! Keep it up!
charanraj
Thanks Mito. Keeping it up there is the toughest part…Lol..let’s see how it works out..
AT
Pogba to Mkhi for me, Mito. I agree, his points don’t tell the whole story!
Horse
Well done Charanraj. Tricky thing is staying there 😉
inittowinit
I’m buying him this week. Why are you selling?!
Silvers
Who’s selling who
inittowinit
Relatively self explanatory that one Silvers
Gavy
Looking at an early move this week as price changes are happening fast.
Should I do Moura to miki both have a fixture chance bad for spurs good for Ars.
Or should I do Coleman to Monreal or Bellerín and play them over ralls?
Have 2ft. But pretty sure I only need the 1 too early to double up on ars. I had planed on doing kun to auba
but I’ll hold off on that for now lol
banjomaker
I’d probably be looking to bring in Mkhi. If Ralls is ever gonna score for you it’s against Huddersfield, so maybe give him another week. Nice team btw.
Gavy
Cheers banjo. Could call, ralls looked ok in the last match. Last chance though. Should I use the 2nd ft and lose king or is he worth 1 more punt?
banjomaker
I’m not sure it’s imperative to lose King this week. That said, I’ve already done a triple transfer and got rid! 😉 if you can resist you’ll have loads more options next week.
