Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 3
A lunch time kick-off gets us going this week when Wolves or as City likes to call promoted teams, dinner, face off. That is followed by four 3pm games. Arsenal and West Ham tangle in a battle to save face, that is accompanied by the two worst teams in the Premier League matching up when Huddersfield welcomes Cardiff, about the only team the Terriers will feel like they can take any points off. In the other two similar time fixtures, the Vardy-less Foxes take on Southampton and The Cherries play host to Richarlison’s Toffees. Our Saturday finishes with Liverpool putting a half a dozen past Brighton in the late game.
Sunday brings us another three games. Watford look for their third win this new season when Palace drop in, the other two fixtures see Fulham versus Burnley and the heavy spending Toon go against Sarri with his high pressing, no defending side.
Our game-week is brought to an end when styles clash at Old Trafford as United see Spurs come in for a visit. Should be fun watching Jose rally his loyal troops to get all XI behind the ball, while Poch implores his side to not let them out of the back.

Should I go Richardson for Walcott (I am aware there is plenty of time)
inittowinit
He’s a bit marmite but personally I think that’s the best move considering the other options available as all seem to have some other issue attached be it play time or just poor fixtures.
Raziel
Have 2 ft’s and Arnie plus Richarlison or whatever he’s called. How serious is Arnies injury?
I was thinking Rich to Wally, BSilva to Fraser and Peltier to Alonso.
inittowinit
Nothing more concrete than this Raz, doesn’t exactly sound terminal though.
Giggy
With that info. I would ship Arnie out this week rather than Richarlison.
Tempeted to bring in Mitrovic rather than Zaha which would have me .5 in ITB.
s
Afternoon all.
Going to shift out Richarlison and mahrez.
Got 15.7 to spend
Hard who to bring in
inittowinit
I’d be tempted to keep Mahrez this week, probably his ‘turn’ to play. Can Shaw become Alonso if Rich leaves for someone roughly the same price? Is this for a hit?
s
Yeh would be for a-4 initt
s
If did shaw to Alonso would have 5.1 left to spend on Richarlison replacement
Shrivathsa
Aguero has a good record against Newcastle, at home. can you just avoid the hit and play Obi Wan? and bring in Wally for Rich?
gramps
Is this lot too much for a WC this week
Fabianski/Speroni
Robertson, Alonso, Mendy, WanB, Bennett
Salah/Miki/Kante/Wally or Rich/Stephens
Kun/Kane/Kamara
Leaves .3itb
inittowinit
Is that what you’re proposing to do? Depends what you’re exiting to get there?
gramps
Existing players I would remove – Ederson/Luiz/Vvd/Firmino/Ralls/King and Tarkowski
inittowinit
Stick a pic of your current team up gramps if you can?
gramps
Hi Innit,
Have no idea how to pic the team but her it is for this week
Ederson
Luiz/Mendy/VVD/WanB
Walcott/Salah/Miki/Stephens
Aguero/Firmino
Subs Speroni/Tarkowski/King/Ralls
Smash
You don’t need a wildcard there. Surely
inittowinit
Not worthy of a WC that for me gramps. There will be a point when fundamental changes are necessary, this isn’t it and they aren’t either, really.
EBC
Presumably used your FT to get Walcott?
Play King over Stephens and you’re good to go.
Smash
I agree with EBC but I seem to have a man crush on Mitrovic so I’m going to bring him in for King
EBC
Decent team but I think Kane/Aguero/Salah leaves you light. You may be better going for 2 out of 3 with say Alli/D Silva/Mane instead of whoever is left out.
Keepers – I’d go Etheridge if you’re looking for a single keeper. Or better yet rotating with McCarthy/Hennessey/Foster
Defence – perfect.
Mids – not sure on Kante. Stephens could drop as well so maybe Westwood instead
Forwards – Kamara is a waste, for an extra 1m you could get Ings. Just depends how much you want the premium trio.
gramps
Cheers all – will save the WC for a week when its absolutely required.
Frenchie
So I used my 2FTs to be able to bring in Alonso (and Mitrovic).
I’m stuck with Richarlison, do you think it’s worth hitting for Walcott? Alternative is to play Wan Bissaka who has good fixtures too.
I’m also a bit concerned with BSilva.
Giggy
Not worth it if you plan to Bring back Rich when he is fit.
Wait and watch And play Wan for this week.
coys9
Hope you guys are having a good week. I have one FT and 0.4 itb. Any thoughts on my team? Few burning issues in form or Mahrez, Richy, Shaw. Should i bite the bullet or make a change?
EBC
I’d bring in Walcott for Rich and bench Shaw.
Mahrez may be due a game so could do really well this week.
coys9
Felt like I kind miss the sell Richy boat. Is it just me or this season’s price change seems to be quicker. For now I’m inclined to stick to Richy as I would get him after suspension anyway.
EBC
I reckon there are 3 things contributing to that:
1) world cup/new manager uncertainty leading to picks we didn’t want in the first place
2) Not a lot going on in Europe to worry about
3) No transfer window so people feeling safer making early transfers
Smash
I agree with EBC. Mahrez is a problem long term but you might get away with it this week
coys9
that would make Shaw the main issue to address especially if he doesn’t play. Would prefer to bring in Alonso for Shaw But will need to shift some value.
inittowinit
Shaw would concern me there, but let’s see what tonight’s team sheet says.
Smash
I think Shaw starts tonight. Not sure how much longer he will last. In my opinion I reckon Jones and Smalling will come in for Bailly and Lindelof
coys9
Mahrez equally concerns me as he’s bad value at moment at not sure if I can afford another price drop. Really hope Shaw plays tonight else I’m down to 10 this week. Sheesh
jamesimmo
I’m in the very same boat RE tonight’s match and Shaw or 10 men. Perhaps give Mahrez (i.e. Pep) one last chance; Man City playing at home vs Newcastle could lead to spectacular fireworks.
coys9
I can’t claim to watch all the man city matches but Mahrez doesn’t look his usual self when I watched him
Smash
Mahrez has not looked great and he’s not made it to 60 minutes yet. So much competition
coys9
Smash, d’you reckon I do Shaw/Mahrez to Alonso/Mikhi for a hit?
Smash
I did those moves last week for a hit and I’m good with it now
DMC
A bit of a pickle there Coys. If Shaw and Mahrez don´t play/start the next one you are looking at a 9-men team + Stephens.
In light of that, I say you sell Rich – as he is definitely out – and hope for one from Shaw/Mahrez to play and avoid a hit.
If you are willing to take a hit though, then I’d probably let Rich rot on the bench and go full on selling Mahrez and Shaw for Mkhi and Alonso, if that works.
coys9
Some good ideas there’s DMC. Just to sum it up
1. Rich to a 7.0m mid. (0.1m short of Mikhi >.<)
2. Mahrez/Shaw to Mikhi/Alonso for -4
Hmm…
man u man
2 looks good to me, but then you’re still stuck with Rich. Does this mean you’re going to hold on to him until his suspension ends?
coys9
Well I go with no.2 I have the option of playin 4-3-3 with WB as the next two fixture looks decent for Palace
DMC
Coys – Yep, that’s what I was suggesting. And I do like option 2 better, mainly because it gets you Alonso and solves the anxiety that comes with having Mahrez. If option 1, I’d probably go Wally. But option 2 allows you to keep the bloody twat too, instead of using two FT on selling and rebuying him, which I believe is what we’ll all inevitably be doing if he reignites with the same form. Rich, that is. I’m contemplating keeping him (and bite the bullet of not gaining 0.1 on him), but I am in a different position because I can probably do that with no hits involved while buying Alonso and fielding a decent XI in both weeks. What I don’t want to do is rush my decision process because of the odd 0.1 or even 0.2. I’d only consider early moves if there’s a risk of not being able to buy the ones you really want in a given week (such has me with Alonso there).
coys9
Thanks DMC. I do fancy option 2 as well but will surely wait till end of the week if there’s no price rise/fall impact. Cheers
