Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 2
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 2.
If you made it from GW1 to GW2 then that probably either means you scored well in GW1 and are still full of beans having done so or that you are simply a proper FPL player and know that you will make it to GW38 regardless. Either way GW2 is upon us so let’s go see how the weekend pans out…
Arsenal’s reserve team got off to a good start with 3 points away at Newcastle and they clash in the days early game with a bouyant Burnley side who beat Southampton 3-0 in their own first game.
3pm sees us with five games but with the exception of Liverpool it’s a list of the ‘also-rans’ again. There’s definitely a pattern developing here… Villa host Bournemouth with both looking for their first win, Everton host Watford with both looking for their first win, Norwich host Newcastle with both looking for their first win, Brighton host West Ham with both looking for their first win, (oh hang on, Brighton won?!) West ham looking for their first win. Southampton host Liverpool and of course the hosts are looking for their first win. They’ll still be looking next week too.
The evening game is argueably the first big clash of the titans this season as Man City host Spurs.
Sunday sees Sheffield United and Palace get us going at 2pm, with both teams looking for their first win. That is followed at 4.30pm by Chelsea and Leicester, with… yeah, you guessed it, both teams looking for their first win!
We go to Monday this time too as Wolves host Man United in a mouth watering clash.
The games in full…

Does anyone know how i can be removed from a private league? My bench boost was also played but i did not authorize it. These changes happened during the time the games were being played today.
I don’t but at least the good news is it was played during the game and not before. Change your password. You should be able to rejoin the league I think.
I can rejoin, but will only get points from week 3.
You’ll have all your points from the beginning.
Only you or the league administer can remove you from a league. If it’s a h2h league I don’t think you can be removed.
The fantasy site seems to be down currently!
Hi there.
Average GW. 56 points so far with Perez and lundstram to go.
I’ve a query though, where is this part (see lmage)
MHD
I’ve been assured this will be added in later this week.
Thanks a lot :good:
It’s on the Site Team already, at the bottom of the article.
Is it worth doing Wilson – Pukki tonight? I don’t normally do early transfers but the price rise is tempting and I have 2 FTs.
Yeah depends really what’s the status of Digne and Zichenko… I’m tempted by Wilson —> Pukki and Fraser —> KDB funded by a downgrade in either Zichenko or Digne (if either of them is injured long-term)… Think Digne had just a knock (or or so it said on FPL), did Zichenko blow his hammy?
That is exactly the way I’m thinking – KdB in, whatever the hell it takes.
In this rather hot-headed environment while a GW is live, anyway.
Very interested in the games to come this weekend as well. All sorts of things to think through.
Zinchenko played the 90 didn’t he?
Indeed he did, didn’t realize that, thanks
That’s what I was thinking, I want KDB and am pretty happy to take one hit for it. I think Zinchenko’s injury was just cramp and I don’t know about Digne. I think I’m going to get Pukki tonight as I reckon he’ll go up £0.2 next week.
Yeah I’m leaning towards that too, Wilson has to go anyway to get funds for KDB, and Pukki will at least get us a bit of team value (plus he’s Finnish)
Although if we both do that then we still have the exact same team… Right now it feels like some kind of doubles team :laugh2:
Haha I’m trying not to copy you! FYI I’m thinking Digne > Maitland Niles for the extra money. Gonna give it some thinking time though.
Assuming you captained Salah again?
Yeah I capped Salah again :slaphead:
Pukki is going up in price again tonight according to the price rise site
Personally I wouldn’t do it with games and possibly other injuries / other players emerging. A cheap Chelsea player could do something hot tomorrow, etc.
If I were to do it I’d sketch out some sort of plan of what else I want to do / players to jump on. Zed and I both arrived at KdB pretty much simultaneously but Son will be back in play and so on.
It’s easier to gamble on early transfers with the WC still in the pocket, though…
Yes, of course, but that’s reconciling yourself to having to play it very early (if necessary).
I suspect a 3x transfers with a -4 will satisfy most people (in terms of straightening their sides up).
Yes, but it is a bit early for a WC. I would risk early transfers may be week 4 onwards though.
Well you might not need it, not saying you should use the WC now, I’m saying you could risk early transfers now, you might get away with it, I don’t care when I use my WC, I use it if I need it, no matter whether it’s GW2 or GW17…
I know that’s what you meant.
I think Liverpool will miss a GW somewhere down the line so in theory a wildcard could be planned around that; I don’t know.
Last season I wildcarded in the second break and the season before in the first break. Before then I used to play it late. Going early has its advantages. But maybe not this early.
Yeah I wouldn’t want to play it this early, but just saying I might take a few gambles knowing that I have the WC to land on if it goes tits up, chances are it won’t go tits up though, and so I’d be alright… You gotta take risks like that sometimes as well in order to beat a significant portion of other managers I think…
I’ve usually burned mine in the first or second break and I’ve had good OR results and bad OR results with it, don’t think the time of using your first WC correlates at all with your OR rank in May actually…
I have just looked, before Pukki’s rise yesterday, I could have
Heaton > Button
Wilson > Pukki
Greenwood > Barnes
Now I’m £100k short
Welcome to FPL
Wilson > Pukki is done now.
That was fast…
Yes but unless you’ve developed the powers of prophecy there’s sweet FA you can do about that. If Wilson – C Wilson – had scored a couple today you’d be over the moon.
Maybe he should buy H.Wilson?
We should all buy H Wilson. Hedge our bets. He has impeccable pedigree.
And great hair!
But he didn’t, his fixtures are no better than Pukki’s, I cannot see Wilson scoring more points than Pukki over the next four or five games, Pukki is cheaper.
I have Barkley and Zouma to worry about tomorrow next, I don’t think Barkley is even going to play and if he does not do anything.
Chelsea were always a waiting game for me – though with Kante back they’re a very different beast and tomorrow’s game should be an interesting one, to put it mildly.
If Chelsea look ok then they have a couple of good games to get us to the break.
I am thinking Salah & Wickham to KDB & Pukki. Is It too early to loose Salah! He did not do well today.
Blimey. Well, you know the risks of doing that.
Maybe that 120 minutes took its toll after all.
With Arsenal up next – often free-scoring routs at Anfield – I’d be reluctant to throw Salah over just yet.
Thanks Karin, I will try to get Pukki for Jota and somebody else as I have 2 FT.
I wouldn’t drop Salah!
Surely Wickham not in first 11 so it’s not comparable?
