Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 28
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 28.
And then there were 8…
If you’re arriving here wondering what on earth the above title is about then you either haven’t been paying attention or you are in for a big shock; basically Arsenal, Aston Villa, Man City and Sheffield United aren’t with us this week due to the Milk Cup final on Sunday.
We do still have a relatively full GW which spans 3 days though and it begins on Friday evening with Leicester licking their lips at the prospect of facing a now notoriously leaky Norwich.
We have the usual Saturday structure beginning with a lunchtime KO between Brighton and Palace before Bournemouth welcome Chelsea, Burnley go to Newcastle and West Ham host the Saints, all at 3pm. Watford and Liverpool see us out in the late game.
Sunday has just the 2 games, both at 2pm due to the aforementioned, and now traditional, trouncing of insert any team name (Villa) by City at Wembley. For the record the games are Everton hosting Man United and Wolves visting Spurs.
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 28 from all at FF247!

Hope everyone having a good week. Brought in DCL and Bruno this week, lucky I did too… they saved my week. I have 1 FT and 1.3 ITB. Ings seems to be a sinking ship, time to get rid. Mad to move for Jota already having Jimenez?
I’m considering it myself so does that make you mad, maybe, who knows?
I was going to do it last week but thought Ings and Vardy would surely come through. Now Ings seems to be injured and off form. Jota is red hot.
Sometimes it’s the obvious moves we should just make!
Didn’t realise Ings was injured.
Will see out the FA Cup games plus DGW confirmation (or not).
All being well come next Friday I’ll be bringing in Jota alongside Jimenez.
Traore and Bobby to Fernandes and jota!?
That’s not a bad shout
Jota and Jimenez have great partnership on the pitch. Good fixtures coming as well and Wolves are genuinely playing some silky football! So no, not that mad :yes:
Not the worst move at all. Wolves are pretty good nick. They always seem to be pretty good nick.
From having the worst GW ever yesterday to a green arrow today…FPL is such a fascinating game, isn’t it :agree:
It’s why we love it and hate it in equal measures!
Absolutely, Rosco!
How are you getting on this week? Hope you are doing well :good:
I had a stroke of genius (1 minute before the deadline) and did Vardy & Cantwell to Jota & Bruno. :dance:
Haha nice moves! I’m good mate, I took a hit for martial for Fernandes, luckily paid off and I have the better player moving forward! Happy days!!
Thanks, mate! Glad to hear you are well! Good luck going forward!
Always said it – never get worked up on a Saturday!
Great transfers made there Tornado – the two I’m looking at this coming week.
Cheers, GP!
When you watch these two, they just look dangerous! Nice schedule ahead in the PL as well, although FA and UEL games don’t help much.
Anyway, I think I will stick with them until the end of the season (if there are no injuries, of course)
Pep announces the DGW29????!;
“Now it’s recovery. We don’t have time for (celebrating). Sheffield Wednesday, United, Burnley, maybe between Arsenal, and after, Champions League. So no time to rest.”
That was good of him.
:popcorn:
Time to start ripping our teams up!!!!
Gawd, KdB’ll do (for now).
Maybe if Auba plays in 31 it’ll all become clearer. But it’s unlikely Arsenal will play in31. But then it looked unlikely they were going out of Europe.
Agreed Kralin. I’ll happily go in with just KdB.
Ederson is a thought but I think if I remove Pope I will jinx my squad.
I generally avoid Arsenal though there’s a cheap mid possibility perhaps.
Yes a minefield – maybe let a couple of others pick their way through first.
FH him out in 31 and let him pop back up in 32 with Norwich at home…?
Depending on the fixtures I’m going to try and hold my FH past GW31!
I’m not planning on using the FH in 31. This is under the assumption Liverpool will send their youth team out again v Chelsea.
That’s good news, I was literally just looking at you in the FF247 contributors league and wondering how I was going to catch you. Now I know :good: :rofl:
Your mind games won’t work on me 😉
Not that it will matter when the PL is cancelled due to the coronavirus!!
They will eventually :wink2:
The upshot is that the Site Team is going to be an absolute mess for the next 10 weeks with all of the subterfuge! :whistle:
The site team will be fine. What could possibly go wrong?! :big-lol:
I’ll be going kdb and abu. If Laporte was fit hed get a look in.
@Kop You’ll never believe a word I say on there again this season and probably likewise! And given as we are the only sensible ones on there………… #it’sfckd :wacko:
Graham Hunter should not be allowed anywhere near live TV!
He’s a tool. What’s he done now? I’m nowhere near a live TV
Just ruining el clasico!
He has the capacity to ruin most things he touches!
I used to listen to his podcast, ‘the big interview’. I stopped when I realised he was just using it as an opportunity to talk about himself!
Bunch of transfers whirling around in my head. Hopefully news and games this week make things clearer!
Same here mate.
I ditched Vardy on friday night before the deadline and dont know whether to bring him back.
Jota/Jiminez and Fernandes on my radar
Not bad people to have on the radar.
Naturally I’d wait until the cup games are done before moving. Wolves have the current advantage of being in good form and playing in 31; we’ll know who else joins them by the end of the week.
If I bring back Vardy means I cannot bring in Fernandes, and will have to drop Ings for Jota but dont think that is a bad call.
But as you say, cup games to play first. That could throw up a few injuries for people.
Still not sure when is best to play my FH… starting to lose touch on that
As complex as ever HF.
Re the FH I want to save that and BB for the DGW(s).
Bit acronymy this post.
You should know me by now Kralin! !!
From what I have seen, would have thought GW31 would have been the FH week
Will use BB and TC on the doubles weeks
Fair enough. I imagine a few may TC Salah this week.
I won’t be using FH in GW31 either, who are you gonna get, not real advantages there as most will just get you 2pts, plus it’s much more fun playing FH chip in a DGW!!!
just out of curiousity, why will you guys be using FH in a DGW, and not GW31 if only a few teams possibly playing?
hammerfan. If we have very few games in BGW31, it won’t matter if we have 4 or 8 players from those teams. Also, if all the BGW teams were top-6/8 teams, then still FH would have been a good option. But, to play FH in a DGW where you have more and better teams playing double games, it’s a;ways better to go with their players(with choice).
I think that’s what Kralin and Zed also meant.
sort of understand Constantine (not much though).
I normally tend to BB or TC in a doubles week though.
Any chance we will have 3 doubles???
I suspect quite a few of those who plan to hold their FH for a DGW have already used their TC.
@Kop That is very true, I have, for instance, already wasted my TC on “Mane injury unreal that such a thing is even able to happen fiasko”
@hammerfan I am using FH in a DGW rather than in BGW31 (given all the favorites do win in the FA Cup and there will only be 3 fixtures in GW31) because I do think I will gain more points from the chip in a DGW… BGW31, if there’s only 3 fixtures with rather poor teams playing, besides Wolves and Everton maybe, the pool of players I can select from is rather uninspiring, and with free transfers I will get 6-8 players anyway who are the best picks for that week, will have 3 Wolves for instance, so the FH chip only gains me 3-5 very average players from very average teams… I will gain a few points with those average players as well as they will play, but they are so likely to only get me 1-2pts each… Whereas in a late DGW I can get players in from a lot bigger pool, and also players that I wouldn’t have in my team but who I can punt on for one week, rotation risk players and so on, so I think the upside is a lot more for FH in a DGW, plus of course I don’t have the TC to use anymore in a DGW, that’s a huge factor in this of course!
starting to see the reasoning ZL.
Having my TC left still gives me that extra chip. A doubles week is a good option, and in my opinion, Liverpool have been a good bet. But if they win the league before a double, will the kids get a run out. If so, then maybe they are not a TC option. That would maybe leave Man City or Leicester.
As for GW31. Can see what you are saying. These midweek cup games will give us an idea as to who will play for that gameweek. Wolves seem to be a definite from what I have read, so maybe I need to somehow get Jota in (even if others have him). Maybe let others waste the FH on GW31 and maybe use it to my advantage on a doubles week.
Starting to see the appeal now.
So if there is a double for Arsenal, would you move Vardy to Auba? Latest news I’ve seen is that Vardy will play vs Villa, which is a nice fixture, but hard to accommodate both!
I’m trying not to think about it until Friday.
I’m leaning more towards DCL or Jota coming in for Vardy, if I get rid of Vardy*, and bumping Traore up to someone else.
*by no means certain
