Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 6
With five of the big boys, and also Arsenal, having been on European duty this week we may be about the hear the dreaded ‘R’ word a number of times over the next few days as the team-sheets roll in. Certain key personnel such as Hazard were given the week off, other ones played (relatively poorly) and then proceeded to wander around with a pack of Lemsip in their hand afterwards to further fuel speculation as to their possible involvement. All will be revealed in due course though…
Watford pitch up at Fulham to kick us off on Saturday lunch-time to test their strong arm tactics against the strongest of arms in the shape of Mitrovic. Expect fireworks. New FPL favourite Fraser then gets a taste of real Northern ‘hospitality’ at Burnley to begin our 3pm games. Cardiff will hope, probably in vein, not to be the victims of a Pep backlash. Zaha will no doubt get fouled and subsequently wound up like nobody’s business against Newcastle after last week’s revelation that he ‘gets fouled a lot and gets wound up by it’! Vardy then gets another bite at grabbing our attention with a tasty home game against Huddersfield. Salah will then divide an FPL nation by either appearing against Saints or not, and that’s before he even gets a sniff of kicking a ball or two into their net, or doesn’t. Either way, avoid twitter would be our advice, the idiots will be out in full force! Jose’s reinvigoration will be severely tested as the Wolves come a hunting.
Our evening game, after a breathless Saturday afternoon, may end up with Poch wandering alongside the Brighton seafront, supping from a can of Special Brew, muttering nonsensical musings to himself, if the current pattern is to be believed. Or Kane could score a hat-trick and half a million wildcards will be suddenly and unexpectedly activated. Football, eh…
Sunday then sees a supposedly rejuvenated West Ham face a supposedly in form and title challenging Chelsea. Time will tell on both fronts. Arsenal and Everton then close our week out with a challenge as to which one is worse at playing the ball out front the back.

My transfers next week will prob be mendy>trippier and king>mitro. Should i just do it now to avoid price changes or hold out? Never like doing early transfers but surely mitro will rise?
He won’t rise tonight
Bournemouth are at home to Palace. Or should I say, at home to W-B. Last week they duffed up Leicester at home. I was surprised that they in turn got duffed up today so badly.
But like you I’m thinking of the King to Mitrovic move. But King has persisted in my side and hasn’t given that bad an account of himself, is on pens etc.
I’d hold on to any moves though, as the GW hasn’t finished and some of our players are bound to play in the league cup games.
So how did everyone do? I’m thinking of doing two early transfers for a hit mendy and wally out for walker and Madison. Any thoughts guys.?
Milk Cup this midweek mate, so hold your horses. Don’t imagine we’ll see a great deal of first teams but there will surely be some of your players who do appear.
*Rumbelows
My first real football recollection was the Milk Cup Final between Everton and Liverpool so it shall be forever that for me.
True that.
I’ve got a mate who still calls it the Vauxhall Conference!
Littlewoods
Init, replay at Maine road ?
Yeah. Sourness winner from memory. Pretty sure that was the Milk Cup.
Misspelt his name but it’s actually quite descriptive!
It was a really nice goal on a really terrible pitch, if memory serves.
For me as you have kept Mendy this week you might as well hold off for more news. Walcott has Fulham at home next and they just leak goals
I’d wait and see now re Mendy, just in case he rises from the ruins of his metatarsal injury.
I showed him the door last night, for Trippier, a move which nearly paid off really well.
I chose Trips so I could get Mendy back immediately, as/when, rather than swapping him for a cheapo and then farting around with 2FTs.
Thanks a mill guys as always. I suppose you can get carried away with the price rises.
Come on we all know Mendy is not injured!! I heard the rumors of his night on the sauce last week, now I’m hearing even more, add in his 24 points on his license/ driving ban and pep saying he had 3 different injuries in the space of a week!! Throw in the lack of his usual commentary on Twitter when he is injured, he’s not injured, don’t transfer him out just yet!!
Champagne is open ….
That’s Sunday mate, keep up
Starting early?
Thank god you’re here to keep people right!
It’s scary that there’s a small compartment in my mind that knows ‘Rosco doesn’t drink Champagne on a Saturday, that’s his Sunday night tipple’ :oogle:
I actually agree Rosco. I’m not convinced he’s injured . But god knows when he’s going to return. Is it a club image thing that they don’t want players playing when there are scandals involved. The Lloris injury seems strange to me as well
Maybe there’s some sort of unholy agreement between clubs to suspend players for x number of games as / when players transgress like this.
But for Lloris it was a bit different, he played the very next game after he was caught, as a captain. Only after that he got injured.
Then he also didn’t play for France in the IB when they celebrated all the world cup winners. I think he’s genuinely injured.
Ah fair enough did not know he played the next game
should i look to offload d.silva next week or hold on for now?
If I brought Silva in on a wildcard I would persist with him for a while but make sure I had a sub ready to play when he’s rested.
You can’t call the City team every week, just need to take the rough with the smooth.
Hold, definitely. You got unlucky today. In fact considering it was 5-0 to City, a lot of people probably didn’t benefit hugely.
Can’t thibk why you would get rid he will play most games
thanks guys fr the reassurance and reasoning…ill wait a few weeks
Have just done an early set up of the side for GW7 (captain from Salah to Kun). The remarkable thing is that I’m nervous to drop W-B.
I can’t remember a 4.0 bench fodder player like him. If only BPS could cling to Salah in the same way.
Ryan Nelson had a few very good, unexpected moments, but then cleared off half way through the season.
They will concede at Bournemouth though won’t they. Not many teams keep them out
Yes, probably. Today’s game was quite weird in that I think Bournemouth had a lot of the possession and created more chances than Burnley.
I’ll go more into this minor dilemma when this GW finishes.
Bournemouth when playing at home that is. But it’s unusual for them not to score generally
Early GW7 thinking due to Spurs good fixtures.
Aguero->Kane
Arnie->Mitro
or
Wally->Son or Maddison
Arnie->Mitro
Kun has Brighton at home………………….
Not the hardest captaincy decision I’ve had to make.
Yeah is the captains article just going to be an Aguero tribute
Not writing it this week so am not sure.
You could make a case for Kane, and Auba perhaps. Nobody owns Sterling, who’s quietly (and expensively, alas) going about the business.
Depends how Arnie does. Mitro is looking very good. Aguero to me looks better than Kane and he’s cheaper. Even Wally has Fulham at home next. Maddison also looking good though
But Spurs have Huddersfield, then Cardiff.
Provided Kun starts then I think he could out-point Kane over the next few weeks. Or, I can’t see Kane leaving Aguero behind, which is what you’d need for that lay out.
I think Arnie could out-point Mitro as well.
Walcott to Richarlison / Maddison sounds ok but see what happens tomorrow.
What about Son though? Spurs have Huddersfield then Cardiff?
Everton have Fulham then Leicester.
If you want to get a Spurs’ player, just get him. The fixtures fall very kindly for them.
exactly.
plus I would only be ditching Arnie for a few weeksv till the Hammers fixtures improved.
I’m starting to fall behind in my league and having Son against Huddersfield and Cardiff might help me claw back some points.
