Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29. Back so soon? Life as an FPL manager can be brutal! First world problems and all that, eh?! Three deadlines in the space of 9 days can take its toll mentally, especially when you have to try and factor in the upcoming blanks and doubles, and trying to do so by playing a bit of a guessing game at this stage.
Back at it we are though, and so are Spurs and Arsenal on Saturday lunchtime, as they now seemingly enter a battle for 3rd / 4th spot with each other and also Man Utd, not quite the battle Spurs were hoping for only a week ago. We then have a relative treat at 3pm on Saturday with no less than 5 games. Man City look to keep the pressure on Liverpool as they visit Bournemouth, Brighton will be hoping to pull further clear of the relegation zone and in turn further condemn Huddersfield to their own inevitable fate, Burnley and Palace will be hoping their’s turns into a typical mid-table clash but both still need a few points on the board to make that a reality, Ole will be looking to continue to look invincible as Saints visit Old Trafford with their own agenda and Wolves will look to kiss and make up with their FPL fans with a home game against Cardiff, whose own fans may be forgiven for thinking their own team has already kissed the PL goodbye. What’s the record for the longest sentence ever?!
West Ham and Newcastle is finally looking like a genuine mid-table clash on Saturday evening. Give it three more weeks and the flip-flops will be getting packed in abundance for both.
Watford and Leicester kick us off on Sunday and continue the mid-table theme at 12pm, before a mini derby as Fulham host Chelsea before a proper derby closes us out as Everton look to derail the Liverpool title charge. They won’t, but it should be fun watching them try!
The games in full…

Sighs, I should have started Digne over cappo Pogba. :p
nah they will concede
+ 1 thats the spirit dreamers.
might be blind optimism though mate
could be another last minute winner.
A miracle. All my defenders got a cs and all managed to get a yellow card which cost them bps.
focus on the positives – all ur defenders have cs’s
dont trust siggy from here
aint happening today. such an average performance. feels like 08/09 again with just too many draw results
Yeah it’s look bad now. Whereas City do seem to get the results even when they don’t play all that well.
+ 1 clear difference between the 2 sides and city having the better quality and squad depth. pool not good enough when the front 3 are having an abysmal day
Pool losing the championship again, it seems.
the chokers tag have should be starting soon by the media, no surprise
Really bad day at the office for the front 3,Salah looks like he did early in the season when we all dumped him !
think he needs another fpl mass exodus to get that hattrick against burnley 😉
Time to sell Salah? Absolutely not justifying his price tag anymore for me, feel like Hazard or Sterling would be better options
we got burnley next. IMO ur better off with 2 pool defenders and mane based on recent performances
I won’t waste a transfer on Salah to Sterling, not when gw31 is close.
I’ve had Hazard and Salah for weeks. Neither have done much at all
Am I the only one thinking Klopp’s coaching was particularly bad today? I know it’s easy to make critics, who I am to challenge him, but come on Liverpool midfield has been completely… What’s the right word, bossed by Everton?
Henderson was utterly useless, and the guy brings Milner for Wijnaldum, then the last stroke was Lallana for Mane, I couldn’t believe it.
I think Guardiola is better than Klopp, and that’s why Man City will win the PL.
+1 that midfield was terrible and klopp made some bad sub choices. its city’s title to lose now
I don’t agree Frenchie. He might have made some bad choices tonight but we don’t know the reasoning behind the choices. Wijnaldum could be fatigue or whatever.
As for sayng Pep is the better manager, based on tonight? For me that what Klopp did wth Dortmund and Liverpool is way more of an accomplishment than whatever Pep ever did. Apart from winning a lot of prices with the best Barcelona ever, a team he took over. He sort of failed with winning big prices with Bayern and now City.
Pep has more depth in the squad and he sort of had the best EPL squad for years now. In my opinion he shouuld have done way better.
Klopp took over a sinking ship and turned it into what it is now. They miss depth now. Where City’s bench is as good as their starting 11, you can’t say the same for Pool.
Well, in short I don’t agree Raz.
Of course I’m not saying Pep is the better manager just based on today. I’s a general observation.
Yes Man City has a deep squad, but Liverpool has made some very good signings this year and is much deeper than last year (Allison, Fabinho, Keita, Shaqiri…)
I think many people look at the front three, but many games are won in the midfield, the “engine” of the game. Today Liverpool’s one was pretty bad, and Klopp’s line up, subsitutions, and unability to change system don’t go in his favour.
And I completely disagree with your statement on Guardiola.
I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree
In my opinion Klopp still remains untested on getting over the line.
His man-management is excellent of course, but has he got the tactical nous when things are not going as planned?
His record in finals suggests not, at this stage, but that could change.
That’s not to say that man-management cannot succeed on the odd occasion – look at Ranieri in Leicester’s league winning season for example.
I was expecting Shaq (for Mane).
Think everyone was.
Once I saw Lallana, knew the game was over.
Yep agree Cookie.
And to your point below, well done to Everton!
No credit for Everton here? Liverpool have no divine right to win any football match.
It’s my party and I cry if I want to.
r u a pool supporter in general, raziel?
Erm, Eresh, the other 4 numbers in any order please.
I’ve liked Pool since Klopp took it over. And before that when Suarez joined them from Ajax. I know in England they are pretty much a well hated team right? In my country we dislike teams like City more because of the money…. they sort of started that shit…………………. but now it seems it is all about the money….. so matters little.
After so many years I think it would be awesome for them to win a championship. So some goodwill.
I’m from the Dutch school so I like a certain type of play. They 4-3-3 style, which was initiated by Cruyff and Michels in the early 70’s at first Ajax, later the Netherlands and then Barca.
cheers for that insight raz. i enjoyed reading that. i wouldn’t say we are most hated (unless you are a manc or everton supporter)
Raz, I wouldn’t say ‘Pool are currently the most “hated” team in England. A poll last year put them at no.3, well behind Chelsea and Man U:
https://www.google.be/amp/s/www.eurosport.com/football/premier-league/2018-2019/the-most-hated-premier-league-clubs-according-to-the-fans_sto6868729/story-amp.shtml
Bit surprising that Cardiff aren’t higher, as any team managed by Warnock (or Mark Hughes) earns big hatred bonus points
Don’t be silly now, it’s all Everton’s fault for being terrible….
cant we just agree that both teams were terrible today and neither deserved to win?
wish they were more terrible Init. Couple of ogs wouldn’t have gone amiss
Sort of wish so too Dreamers, I want Liverpool to win the league, but only if they deserve to do so.
Eresh; exactly. Salah could / should have won it though, I don’t recall Everton having any such chances.
i think it was crying out for a “not like for like” change with the mid 3 becoming a 2. Fuck it. its an opportunity missed. in a game of limited clear cut chances, you have to take them when they come.
