Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 24
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 24. Time to get the show on the road once again and we start down at the south coast for the lunchtime fare as Chelsea visit Brighton. Six 3pm matches follow as top-6 stragglers Arsenal host the slowly improving Crystal Palace, Man Utd take the short trip to Burnley, Everton welcome West Brom, Leicester entertain Watford, Stoke clash with Huddersfield and in what should be a more entertaining affair, Bournemouth go to West Ham.
The evening match sees Newcastle entering the lion’s den as they look to stop Kun, KdB et al at the Etihad. Sunday sees just one fixture and it’s another London team travelling south as Spurs go to Southampton.
Our game-week concludes on Monday with Swansea hosting free-scoring Liverpool.

A lot of people bring in Willian, will he keep game time when moratas back?
MadHatter
For him to be back he’d have to be there to begin with!
Gavy
Fair point lol
I mean with him 0laying so well will Pedro and morata put him back as a sub
MadHatter
They shouldn’t … which means they almost certainly will!
Sorry but you can’t trust managers to go on form or talent anymore!
If they pay a lot of money for a player then they lose face if it doesn’t pan out, so they try and force it no matter what!
Pessimistic much?

Reports (from Italy) say Dzeko is on his way to Chelsea…
Still rumours,but a lot of sources report this…
It’s very possible we will have a lot of choices upfront very soon (Aubameyang;Dzeko;Tosun…)
Raziel
Oooh just noticed. Not just entered the top 100k. I entered the top 80k. ^^
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
Just entered it not that long ago, it feels like every season I spent half of it trying to recover from the abysmal start. One of these years I am going to put a full season together and finish real high….one of these years…I hope.
Raziel
One of my first seasons I almost ended up in top 10 after a few gameweeks. After that I sucked monkeyballs though. ^^
inittowinit
Been there for a while now and I have to say it’s dead boring!
Made it my mission this year to have a good start for once and not have to play catch up for once. And now I’m just boinging around a bit, up and down a few spots because we all have basically the same teams! At least last season was exciting trying to chase and even better achieving it. Not doing this again, next season I want to be at 500k at Christmas again and try to recover as normal 
MadHatter
1st world problems!
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
Just take over Kop’s team. 😉
inittowinit
There’s literally no pleasing that one!
Mitro
Just broke the 126k mark! It’s killing me being this shit!! Reckon I could nick top 30k before the end of the season though!
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Always thought it was pretty pointless placing emphasis on your rank or whether you gave a green arrow or not on a Saturday night and I did it myself sometimes. Much better to compare your rank week to week at the end of the gameweek.
Leprechaun
+1
Mitro
I do GP just a bit buzzing to see my rank that high after a long hard season, suspect after the games today and tomorrow I will be around 165k
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
No harm in that Mitro, pleased for you.
Just don’t get too carried away or too upset – find the middle place. 😉
MadHatter
Mate my rank is 1,379,780!
Still having fun though!
swampster
Thinking of using wc which is ditching Gomes, Gomez, Otamendi, Vertonghen, Richarlison, Son & Firmino……..is this a good idea and a good wc team? Cheers
MadHatter
Otamendi?
MadHatter
Oh for Alonso ok.
Doubt you need to WC though.
constantine
Another bad gameweek in making.. i never do it and have never done it before. But, want to share the team of my rival who is about 120 points ahead of me right now. He’s kind of following the top teams and hence every week preparing for his team. What should I do? Thinking of playing WC and making a totally different team. Suggestions please..
constantine
His team:
constantine
Mine:
Leprechaun
Cross your fingers
MadHatter
That’s what I did mate.
It’s working so far (1 GW)
Had to go different as bottom of my league
constantine
Hey Mad..WC is an option, but i agree that my team is not in “that” bad shape. May be a few tweaks could come handy
MadHatter
Yeah a few FT’s will sort out the non players and the rest is great!
Smash10
I prefer your team. It’s just his week with the Aguero points which was a lucky hatty. Still a long way to go
constantine
Cheers Smash.. He’s been lucky all season. Majorly me not getting Firmino and Sterling for long cost me too much..He still has his TC , WC, BB left. He’s used his Freehit though. Really need to win this as a lot is at stake
Smash10
He’s got the essential players but his other midfielders are awful. Lingard might have dried up now and just looks worse because of Aguero points. One he probably didn’t touch, pen was almost saved and other a tap in. Just one of those weeks
Leprechaun
Smash,
Gary Player once said, “the more I practice, the luckier I get”.
It seems to me that Kun would share his sentiments, as would Kane who got a miskick one last week as well if you recall.
Seals
Agreed. I prefer your team. Play the long game, no need for rash changes. You can catch them for sure. Just looks worse because of kun capt this week.
constantine
Essentially, i want some differential picks. Surman , Mariappa, Elliot, DCL not starting anymore is also a big headache. We have 6 players in common
Seals
Yeah I totally get what you mean but those similar players are solid scorers and decent picks. Those you’ve listed are the ones I would make changes to. Also Pope with Heaton on his way back.
Seals
What’s you ITB and FT?
constantine
Seals, i have 0.9m itb and 1 FT
MadHatter
Poor McCarthy – double leg break!
Could be career ending that
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
The reaction of Rondon immediately afterwards said it all.
Medicine and rehabilitation has advanced so mush in recent times that recovery chances are so greater. Hopefully we’ll see Coleman back soon as an example.
Lot of it is mental attitude though so the player has to have that.
MadHatter
Fingers crossed!
Must affect your mind set when you go in for a tackle after going through something like that
Leprechaun
I’d quite like a brace from Ali today -assisted by Kane. Not a lot to ask surely?
Smash10
Ha I need the points from Son and Kane. Got rid of Alli
