Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 5
We doubt there will be many FPL fans left now then, such was the excitement and intrigue of the new ‘Nations League’, or whatever it is called. 16 groups of teams, some in groups of 4, some in 3, some can get promoted, some can get relegated, some can get into the Euros but only if they haven’t already and if they have then someone else can instead, who did worse. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah…
Just in case anyone is indeed still interested then… FPL IS BACK! Thank goodness.
Saturday will see the majority of our FPL interest hit the field. ‘Super Sunday’ looks like it’s having a breather and is followed closely by its cousin ‘Mundane Monday’…
Spurs and Liverpool get us underway at lunchtime in what should be a very tasty appetiser. 3pm then sees Bournemouth and Leicester no doubt sharing a fair few goals, Chelsea probably starving Cardiff of any, Huddersfield hoping that Zaha’s brother doesn’t actually make a habit of DM’ing correct injury news about his sibling, Man City struggling to derail the Mitro train before slamming in a shed load of their own to render it unimportant anyway and then Newcastle and Rafa setting up a cricket formation around Cech with a silly point, silly mid off, silly mid on and a short leg. High flying Watford then host Man United in the evening game to see Saturday out for us, and just perhaps Jose too.
Wolves and Burnley is the early ‘Super Sunday’ game. Is it possible for a team to actually concede less than zero goals? We may well find out. Everton and West Ham will provide your late Sunday ‘entertainment’.
The lack of any tangible FPL involvement in the post Saturday TV games continues through to Monday for the south coast derby between Southampton and Brighton. Even if you don’t actually own Ings you’ll probably be praying for him to score by this point just so you can pretend to have something to say about it all!

Welcome to our Fantasy Football leagues section.
The League Codes for FF247 for the 2018/19 season are as follows –
Firmino to Vardy and king to Mitrovic worked wonders.. FML
Damn, that probably hurt more than Firmino’s eye.
To keep sane you have to look at the points you get from transfers over a few weeks. Vardy and Mitrovic have kindish fixtures next week. This time next week you’ll be posting that ‘this manager lark, it’s easy innit’.
Now now, never get in the way of a good meltdown. 😉
Yeah , those were awful moves vee, what were you thinking?
Fraser in for Mkhitarian?
Gives me enough for Kane in for Firmino next GW
In your position I’d be tempted to hold Mkhi and ditch Walcott instead.
Kane…by all accounts he looked knackered today. Having said that, Spurs need to regain the winning habit pretty quickly and he’s not a bad choice at all. But I’d see how he gets on v B&HA rather than ditching the excellent Firmino.
Going my league on UCL

Thanks Liseli, since you bothered to put it on here, will join now. We have an article on it tomorrow. Only an intro to the game, but we did include a FF247 league code, fixture tracker and set pieces. Should be out tomorrow after fpl games are done for the day.
That’s great news .looking forward to be a champion again last since i didn’t have much of a challenge hope this season will be.
Those sound like fighting words.
You won our league last season did you?
Seeing some people’s scores here is quite depressing
Now the only one who can save me is Stephen from Brighton. Yes. I know.
All hope is lost….
Holebas keeping his consistency after all. 5G, 3Y!
He’s behind his usual curve then and behaving?!
Mito knows Lerma. 😉
Yellow for a foul on Maddison.
Was Vardy on the pitch when Maddison scored the penalty?
No
Mick >richarlison
Or
Moura > Son
I believe Son his back to take back his place
I think Moura will keep his spot for now but I think Son will start also. Not sure how that works out formation wise though! Maybe some Spurs fans will be able to elaborate?
Pancho?
Give it a week or so.
Hahah just seen this! Been coaching soccer at a tournament all day.
I’ve been thinking about this same thing. I’ve been confused why Poch changed the formation from the last 3 seasons. Kane is not good as a deeper lying forward. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Kane up top alone, with Lucas on the left, Eriksen central, and Son/Lamela on the right. Dier/Wanyama holding mids.
I’m impressed with your assessment, but the greater question is did you bench your equivalent Wan Bissaka in said tournament too?
@Liseli, I wait and see who starts in Champions League. Think that could be a clue on how Poch might rotate some of the guys.
