Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 23
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 23. We’ve gone from feast to famine in terms of a hectic Christmas and NY period to the lull of FA Cup weekend. However we return to normality this week – a 3-day gameweek! We kick off with six 3pm matches – Danny Drinkwater gets a chance to show his old employers how far he has come as he watches Chelsea host Leicester. From the bench presumably. Palace welcome Burnley, West Ham go to Huddersfield, basement dwellers Swansea travel to Newcastle, Watford and Saints meet at Vicarage Road and Lord Pardew looks to continue West Brom’s brilliant run as they host Brighton. The evening match sees bus driver Big Sam drive down to Spurs.
Sunday sees two matches – first up is Wilshere’s journey back to his best days as Arsenal go to Bournemouth before the highlight of the gameweek as Raheem is another to make a return as Man City take the short trip across to Liverpool.
Our gameweek concludes with a Monday night special as under fire Mark Hughes continues the themes of returns as he takes his relegation threatened Stoke lot to Man United.

Christ think I’m having a good week well Fantasy wise at least
nice one Smash – what you on?
58 without bonus. So bonus from Kane (C), Arnie, Son, Hennessy to come. Also have Sterling, Firmino, Salah and Jones to go
That makes two is us Smash. Plenty of time for things to take a turn for the worse
You two and Gavy are not supposed to have good weeks, it sort of ruins the joke. 😉
I’m currently sitting in a hospital bed so think I’m still there
You’re right Mito. Sorry.
Nothing serious I hope Smash?
Kidney not functioning properly so need another scan and keeping me in
Fck!
Get well soon Smasher!
Shit. All the best there Smash, hope they sort you out asap.
Then again, last time you were off work you practically ran the website which was nice so let’s go for a full recovery but maybe just over time :hippo: 😉
Thanks all.
Get well soon Smash
All the best Smash. Health is more important than FPL.
Which apparently you are crushing this week!
Get well soon, Smash!!!
Bloody hell Smash get well soon Lad !!
Damn, sorry to see this Smash. Hope everything works out man, hang in there.
Spurs’ boost + Arnie. 67 (-4) and no bonuses yet. I’m on the roll this time, finally.
You got 13 bonus points coming. That’s an awesome score. Now you need to start hoping that the rest of the games are for the most part 1-1 with insignificant scorers.
Thanks Mito!
No, I’m not THAT lucky haha
Bye bye hazard and morata……
Who did you bring in
Aguero and Mahrez, going to get rid of that flop Richarlison as well and probably get in son or Arnie
Yeah Aguero and Mahrez have got to make sense
Son or Arnie?
Arnie for their next 4 fixtures and playing up top
Both have form I have both but I’d go Arnie looking at fixtures and he’s playing up top
Cheers
Morata = Torres
You forget that at his best Torres was sensational. I’m not sure the same can be said of Morata.
He was indeed but I think the point is more Torres when at Chelsea. It is very reminiscent.
True. However Morata has never scored more than 15 in a season which he might still do this season. So perhaps we expect too much.
Thought Morata was a bad signing at the time and he’s looking terrible. Yeah he can head a ball but that’s about it. Don’t think this negative formation helps him
He was great at Anfield but I mean his Chelsea period
63 w/BPs and Otam/Sterling/Kun to play. Really solid GW going! Hoping for another 5-0 for City with a Kun hat trick.
What a boost this GW is after that shite at St James! 75 with 4 to play! Happy bloody days after 2 red arrows i may get a green!
Just as well you kept Arnie.
Haha I know! Got bless you for responding so quick too!!
You made the decision mate, not me. However, I don’t know whether it influenced it so here’s a sliding doors question for you and I’ll explain why later – with no response what would you have done? Or what were you intending to do before posting at least.
Hmmm good question, here’s what happened… so all week my intention was to get Lingard, then on Friday I had a few drinks and I decided that I needed Alonso. Didn’t want to do the sideways move from Azpi so decided to double up as a ‘transisituon’. I woke up this morning and though WTF!!! Still wanted Lingard and my thought process was that if one person who’s opinion I respected replied, I would go with that. You were that person so decision made!
Interesting! Whilst also slightly disparaging to those whose opinions you don’t respect :hippo: Name them, that’d be funnier 😉
Anyway, sliding doors – I was at the kids footy today. And wasn’t supposed to be, or at least I’m not normally but the Mrs stayed away last night so I was at that rather than my own game. And staying away was a last minute decision.
And then at kids footy one of the Mums came over and asked (no, not that, doesn’t get that interesting, you dirty bstrd ) if both our kids would like to go back to theirs after footy for a bit. She wouldn’t have asked my Mrs as she normally just sits in the car out of the cold.
Upshot was that I had a spare couple of hours which I wouldn’t have otherwise had. And so I jumped on site to help do a few RMT things. And there you were. Just about to do a transfer or not and walk out the door to the match. And you still have Arnie. #slidingdoors
By the way, you must have had quite a few drinks as it wasn’t ‘morning’ when you posted it was almost mid afternoon! The life of the man with no kids eh! He says enviously
‘One of the Mums asked me if the kids wanted to come back for a bit?????’
‘She wouldn’t have asked my Mrs…..’
Fck – suggest you take them more regularly…..
Haha no I meant that as in I regretted the Alonso transfer, or rather suddenly felt compelled to get Lingard! Anyway I think had you not replied I’d have likely just done it as I was heading out the door! Had a feeling Arnie wouldn’t play! Glad I posed the question and glad you went to nippers footy!!!!
Nice scoring Rosco. I’m in that ‘not quite sure yet’ zone – 45 inc. bonuses, with Frimino, Salah, Sterling, Jones and Kun (c) to play. Hoping for lots of goals tomorrow afternoon.
Big score there mate. No may about it – green arrows all the way
Cheers guys, I needed it after watching that dross today! Man we’re a terrible team, just hope we make some signings this month!
Averages are in. Well, rough ones.
43pts(after bps) from 4players+1 idiot (yes Alvaro,I am looking at you !! )
Considering I don’t have any CHE defenders; no Son/Eriksen/Alli and no Arnautovic !! -> I’m super satisfied !!
#GreenArrows
Not bad at all HL, especially as you have over half a team left. If the remaining ones can emulate the first lot then you’re on for a cracking week. I’m expecting a fair few goals in the Liv / City game and a Utd CS so you may well be.
Did Morata miss many again today then? Had Sky on but only on mute as I was at a kids party so couldn’t really follow that closely.
I hope the below can answer ur question .
He was invisible!!
Chelsea midfield was nowhere to be seen today.
Totally outplayed by LEI’s high pressing game very high up the pitch.
BAKAYOKO disappeared,Fabregas was never the player who goes back and helps the team when under pressure so it was a surprise Alvaro was cut off !
Kante could not manage all by himself.
LEI dominated the game,especially the 1st half.
CHE has awesome schedule ahead but unfortunately the form is not there.
5games in the next 20days won’t help them.
Thank you Init.
59 with 6 to go. I’m happy with that.
Good ol’ Spurs
Good stuff mate, should be green for you then even up in those lofty echelons.
Your rank could be crazy amazing this week GP if it’s not already
Hey GP! My wife’s team is pushing you hard!!
Should include pic!
Cheers lads.
Interested to see OR rank tonight.
Mrs Rosco is a player! So to speak :winktongue:
Let’s just say I ‘help’! Her goal is to beat the P.E dept, needless to say that’s now a forgone conclusion!
68 here but only 2 to go (DDG and Sterling)
