Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 27
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 27. This is the first of the so called ‘blank weeks’ when a few teams miss out on fixtures. This particular one is because Man City and Chelsea face off in the Milk Cup Final and subsequently both Everton and Brighton get to sit it out too. If this comes as a surprise to you (Hi Raz!) then don’t say we didn’t mention it once or twice in our articles this week. Right after giving yourself a good old slap in the face.
What it does mean is that we have just eight games this week, and rather unusually we begin with two on Friday night. In fact, we think this is the first time this has ever happened. Cardiff face Watford and Fulham play West Ham, so let’s just hope it wasn’t some sort of deliberate marketing tool to draw in viewing numbers…
Burnley and Spurs get us going in the early one on Saturday prior to a paltry two games in the traditional 3pm slot as Bournemouth host Wolves (fantasy relevant) and Newcastle host Huddersfield (not!). Leicester and Palace play in the late one.
Sunday does look a bit more enticing as Arsenal play Southampton mid afternoon before the tie of the weekend sees the GW out on Sunday with Liverpool going to Man Utd to try and make the most of their game in hand. No idea who Man Utd fans actually prefer to win this one!
The games in full…

Keep track of all the action, the goals, the talking points, right here at FF247 Live Match Chat, an interactive chat which encourages you to keep involved and share your thoughts and emotions as the matches take place.
Good luck to absolutely everyone for Gameweek 27 from all at FF247!
Thanks for reading Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 27.

inittowinit
Leicester v Palace, if anyone still has the will to live.
DMC
Lol
I’m in a Rondon mood so yeah bring it up. No interest in this game though so they can all go negative points here!
Pancho
Init, why doesn’t Patricio get points for the missed penalty? :winktongue:
inittowinit
Depends who you believe! FotMob have him missing completely, Wolves twitter handle have it being saved and the Bournemouth one have it hitting the post.
I just watched it and Bournemouth are correct, he got nowhere near it.
HL****** [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
Watched the game.
It was a clear miss, Rui had nothing to do with t.
Pancho
Early thoughts: Salah & Rashford -> Mane & Kun
Is this crazy?
AK47
I wouldn’t quite yet
Smash
Sounds a bit out there
HL****** [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
Why don’t you do a straight swap Auba->Kun?
TheDreamers
Auba has a nice fixture too though
chins
Rosco or anyone else that saw the Newcastle game… How did Almiron play today? Look out of his depth? Think he’s worth keeping as an FPL asset?
Thanks
inittowinit
The Beeb were purring about him on their web feed.
chins
Lovely stuff. Cheers Init.
Rosco
He looked really good mate, very quick involved in everything, petered off in the second half but think he could be very very good!
DMC
That’s good to know Rosco. One to jump on if he starts delivering fpl points I’d say.
And what’s the deal with Hayden? 4.3 mid with 1 goal, 3 assists and 2bps in his last 5 games. Is he a hidden gem or what is he?
chins
Thanks Rosco. I’ll be sticking with for the next couple of weeks then.
Brookyboy
Did i really bring a Leicester defender into my team….. :noshake:
TheDreamers
That was a double take shock when I checked
Brookyboy
Shocking.Lost their last 4 home games on the spin.Must be on borrowed time Puel.
inittowinit
I think he’s probably gone after that.
Smash
Leicester just always concede. Out of nowhere half the time as well
gkw
Sarri should soon be available as a replacement for Puel
Smash
Sarri has Roma lined up
Wafflez
I was actually planning to do Wan B to Periera even before Wans injury.
Now I’m not so sure :p
Kralin
I was planning on bringing Pereira in in 28 but can’t say it’s a move that fills me with enthusiasm. The looming home games look ok but given recent events I’m going to look closely at his attacking stats over the defensive side of things.
Offalymartin
41 points with Pogba, Rashford, Salah and VVD to play. I’ve had worse weeks.
inittowinit
Way above the average again. You must be having a decent season?
hammerfan_lm
I have a massive 11 points so far, with 5 to play.
On for a high scoring week…lol
Offalymartin
Sorry mate. I meant to reply to inittowinit comment over yours. It’s a tough game at times. Hopefully your 5 players Tomorrow score well
Offalymartin
Not really mate I was 95k at start of this gw, up to 41k after today’s games. I brought in Rondon in place of Quaner and captained him so I got very lucky really. I’ll still take it.
hammerfan_lm
I was being sarcastic Offally.
In other words I am going to do badly this week..lol
DMC
Same here. Got Rondon last minute (had my mind set on Kiko-> someone-with-a-game-in-31 all week and ended up in Lascelles and then I realized I could do Kamara -> Rondon) and got very lucky with that. Didn’t cap him, but yeah, on 32 because of him and very happy! Just the two of us then! :))
Offalymartin
I’d say not many captained Rondon alright. I was going to switch the armband to Son yesterday but glad I didn’t now. I made some nice ground in mini leagues so im happy enough.
inittowinit
41k now with chips left should equal at least top 10k, maybe 5, I’d be calling that decent.
Offalymartin
I’ve all my chips and a WC left alright mate. Haha god I wish I could finish that high. I’d be thrilled with top 10k considering I’ve never broken the top 100k season finish.
inittowinit
Let’s see if we can’t help get you there then. I was being serious with those figures, they’re eminently achievable with a good chip plan and a bit of luck.
Offalymartin
Cheers mate. That would be great. Checked updated Ranking this morning it’s actually 51k but still not too bad with all chips and wc
TheDreamers
Hi Offaly. Who have u in that score?
Offalymartin
Had Rondon as captain mate so that was worth 24 points alone.
TheDreamers
Nice. He has actually had a good season. Have they an option to buy him or anything?
inittowinit
Not if he costs actual money they don’t… #Ashley That’s unless the bank are willing to do another deal on a loan.
