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!

How did Mane and Alonso not get awarded an assist each?
Both deflected passes
Oh ok. Sure I got a few of those last year. Oh well. Just being desperate lol.
Not seen Alonso’s yet but Mane’s came off about half their team before it got to Firmino
Alonso was aiming for another player
Walcott it’s time
Time to go?
Despite my brave words of ‘giving him at least three games’ I cravenly ditched him after one…though I did have the ‘he’s injured’ excuse.
Everton v West Ham
Who would you bench here?
I’m not really happy about dubble palace defence, so that would put obi-Wan on the bench but then again, it paid of this weekend. So could Arsenals crappy defenders keep a clean sheet? If so, that would put Walcott on the bench. And if they can’t, will it be Walcott who scores the goal? That would put Bellerin on the bench. I know you can’t answer my questions but what would you do?
Walcott for me. I love the name of your third bench player.
A week of flexible thinking – I’d be tempted to play 5 at the back with the personnel you have.
Wayhey Doherty assist, clean sheet and hopefully 3 bps
