Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Double Gameweek 29. Our game-week kicks off Saturday lunchtime with Bournemouth undoubtedly going to Anfield confident of a victory following their battling draw with Chelsea and Liverpool’s shocker at Watford. And Chelsea…
Five 3pm matches follow as resurgent West Ham go to the Emirates, GW28 victors Palace and Watford battle it out at Selhurst Park, Sheffield United welcome Norwich, Newcastle take the long trip to Southampton and Wolves host Brighton.
The evening kick off sees Burnley welcoming Spurs to Turf Moor.
Sunday brings us what we hope is two goal ridden matches – first up Ancelotti returns to Chelsea with his Everton lads before the Manc derby takes place at Old Trafford.
Our game-week continues on Monday this week as Leicester aim to return to winning ways as they host a Villa side who are now just concentrating on the league. Or at least just trying to stay in it…
And then we extend further as Arsenal go to Man City to complete their ‘DGW’ on Wednesday.
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 29 from all at FF247!

So, WC proving to be OKiesh as of now. 48 with 7(All Arsenal and City) left to play. Can’t say I’m very happy, but it’s much better than the previous 5-6 GWs. Hope to see an Otamendi goal+CS today.. :yes:
Kralin
A well-played (or lucky, depending on how one views that sort of thing) WC should be judged over the weeks that follow, I think, rather than the immediate week in which it’s played. It’s unusual to see even one fresh player in one’s side perform well, immediately, let-alone a complete change in personnel. Your big bonus yesterday was Leno. And your GW is barely half-way through, given the volume of players and points still to come. I can’t imagine you won’t see a fairly significant green arrow this week.
Your challenge I suppose is after GW31 getting the side lined up for 37 (presumably you will FH in 34). But you are sat in a very strong position.
constantine
Cheers Kralin. It seems to be working right now. Usually your wc team performs worse than your pre-wildcard team. I like the fact that I won’t have to take any hits now for the blank.
And yes, Leno is a saviour. :good:
Smash
Not sure why you ain’t happy
constantine
Smash, i didn’t say I’m unhappy. I just mentioned I am not “very” happy. :dance: i would’ve been over the moon if Salah had scored that second goal as well. And Mane kept quiet.
Cookie
Constantine,
You want an Otamendi goal and cs today? As a United fan!
constantine
Haha. Cookie. I knew it was coming from you. I didn’t think of tonight’s game while typing and immediately noticed after posting. I’d want a 3-2 scoreline with Ota involved in atleast one.
Kop Warrior
As a Liverpool fan I really don’t know how I want the Manc derby to go today!
Smash
Probably for it to get called off
constantine
Come on Kop. Stop pretending now. You obviously don’t care about City anymore now. :rofl:
But, top stuff this season sir..what rank!! :worthy:
OddDane
what is all this chatter about Kop’s rank and where can one see this magnificent number?
Kop Warrior
Bar 1 or 2 comments last night I don’t think there’s been that much chat!
Carolyn
It is outstanding
Kop Warrior
There’s a long way still to go. If any of the City boys or Auba fire, I’ll drop like a stone!
Carolyn
So will I! Fingers crossed that doesn’t happen.
OddDane
Me too Kop, me too. Though, I’m safely placed outside of any respectable rank so no harm done either way :mosking:
OddDane
Carolyn you cheeky devil, you started Lundy! Good on you, good week then despite the capo hassle
Kralin
As a Liverpool fan I want Man U to beat City today.
Best of luck everyone today.
AllanBrallan
Got 2ft’s and nada itb… But 11,8 to spend once these fellas are sold.
Unfortunely i’m 0,1 short of Doherty and lamela.
Any suggestions? Has to be players who plays in gw31….
Smash
Doherty and Doucoure will fit there then
Cookie
Agree with Smash.
GentleBenAKA
+1
Very good suggestion
AllanBrallan
Thanks!
Otieno
My choice would be Bergwijn & Taylor
Otieno
If you really want Doherty then Doucoure would enable him
Phoenix619
Good morning guys. So got 58 points with DCL & KDB (hope he plays). If I don’t FH gw31 will end up with -12hit. Question is will this be worth it in terms of the DGW games to come ?? & do you guys think there will be 2 DGWs ???
Thanks guys
Smash
Yeah I think there will be two doubles. As for free hit I’m not sure you need to but can see why people would decide to use it there is no right/wrong answer. You already have all the main players except Jimenez. I’m not sure the fringe players around that make up enough points to justify free hit. 3 Wolves and 3 Liverpool stand out for me. Other fixtures are not much to get excited about
Phoenix619
Plan for GW31 ?? Just to have 11 complete players
Kop Warrior
Why do you have to have 11 players?
You’re hitting to bring in defenders & attackers from both Burnley & Watford who play each other.
Smash
So you will just be free hitting for a few Burnley and Watford players that could easily finish 1-1 for example as that will be a tight game
Stone Frog
There should be at least 2 DGW, 34 and 37. However 34 may be a mainly mid and lower table teams, depending how the cup goes.
Kop Warrior
Looking at your current team I would neither FH nor take a -12 for GW31. 2FT’s and a -4 will get you to 9 players.
Smash
I agree with Kop. Yeah I’ve got 5 currently and I think 8 with a -4 might be enough.
Carolyn
That’s reassuring Smash, I was just looking at 31 and I have 5 at the moment, same as you, who are the other 3 you are going for? I was thinking Pope and Doherty.
Phoenix619
That’s right kop. That might a safer & logical option. Hopefully greed don’t enslave me, collect -12 & gw31 ends up giving me the lowest point this season. But sure it’s all a gamble :good:
Smash
My plan is to save my transfer this week. Then I’m looking at three transfers to get me 8 players for the double to save my free hit chip. I’m going to want the players with the biggest upside. So my thoughts are something along the lines of Wood, Doherty and Alli in for Auba, Saka and either Soyuncu or Egan depending on prices. I have the wildcard so i may use that shortly after as I’m going to want rid of a lot of players.
Smash
For the blank GW31 not double
Carolyn
Thanks Smash, I have another look based on your ideas.
Kop Warrior
Nothing wrong with that Smash
Carolyn
Blanks are the worst for me, I always seem to have a internal debate on hits and free hits.
Zed Leppelin
Yep, that’s what I’m doing I think, save now, then use 3 transfers for -4 to get 9 players for the blank
Gear
Morning all,
Any thoughts on the below moves welcome.
Vardy & Grealish to:
1) Jiménez & Bergwijn (Go without a keeper for BGW31)
2) Jota & Alli (this one allows Pope to come in for Button)
Preference or better ideas?
Kop Warrior
I’d be tempted by #2. Spurs are rubbish but Alli being on penalties is certainly a plus. Obviously it allows you get another player as well
Smash
Think I prefer 2. It’s looking like most stuff is going through Alli currently
Gear
Cheers lads
constantine
yeah. option 2 foe me too
