Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 7
Gameweek 7 gets going with a lunch time affair. The slowly improving Hammers take on the slowly deteriorating Man United. That fixture is followed by six 3pm matches. Arsenal take on Watford, Everton tangle with Fulham, Huddersfield hands over 3 points to Spurs, City put 5 past Brighton, Toon welcome in Leicester and Wolves look to impress again vs Saints. All them fixtures are just the appetisers though, for the match of the day. The late game sees Chelsea welcome in top of the league Liverpool in what we all hope will be a back and fourth battle. Should be interesting all that attacking talent going up against each other. Salah vs Hazard, also Mane vs Hazard and if that wasn’t enough, Firmino vs Hazard.
All the fun didn’t end on Saturday. Well, actually, it did!! Cardiff vs Burnley?! Really? One game on Sunday and this is what we got?
Monday sees an end to the gameweek when Bournemouth tackle the hell out of Zaha. Lerma to get a yellow via love tap to the shin on Wilfried? No doubt!

Salah owners, you keeping or selling?
Never done this before, but sold him for Hazard at the end of the game!! My season is in shambles…
Definitely sell here. Regret I didn’t do it long time ago.
Tough decision on this for me this week but with 2 FT’s in hand and a WC tucked away I reckon he’s finally offski. I’ve been waiting and waiting to see a spark of hope and perhaps had that Rudiger cleared chance gone in things may be different but in all honesty he was poor overall. Again.
Evening Init. I’m really tempted to transfer him out as well, but HUD and CAR in GW9 and 10 is stopping me. If he hasn’t got a haul in one of those he will be gone for sure.
Think I’m going early on these moves as got 2fts myself:
Kane and Doherty in
Kun and Mendy out!
I’ll work Kun or Sterling back in depending on Salah in GW9/10 :see-no:
(Got a wildcard to fall back on if it backfires massively
)
You talking about Salah Adam?, unlike klopp to sub him isn’t it?
@Mitro – Keeping till after gw10. (my potential plan is in my reply to Init above)
Think I’m keeping him. I’m tempted to bring in Kane this week and wildcard him out again after Cardiff
It’s been point out to me that the 2 games after city are very handy. If he dosent score 4 over the next 3 that’s it for me.. mane is 2.9 less and is Just Had attacking, have hazard already
Looks like most are selling; I have 2 FTs and I’m thinking of this:
Salah and zaha/mitro to Maddison/Richarlison and Kane.
good moves mitro. id go for it if i were u
I’m undecided on selling Salah. I know the City fixture seems a natural exit point, but he’s scored in every home fixture so far this season (albeit against lowlier teams than City). I have a suspicion he could score this week, and then of course that tasty Hudders/Cardiff double up will follow.
If I did get rid, it would be for Haz or Sterling. Probably Sterling, as I’m stubborn about missing the Haz boat already. Feel Sterling could be the new Haz, in terms of FF returns
Will keep an eye on price changes. If it looks like Salah’s gonna drop, I might sell and then look to get him back a bit cheaper with my WC if he suddenly becomes essential.
Well Chipster, you can stay where you are but I am leaving this kindergarten play in which all kids still have Salah from last season in their heads and dreaming that he will start scoring big. And yes, f the “easy” fixtures. When someone is out of form no fixture matters.
Fair enough Ivan. I know this has been your position since before GW1. And, based on the results to date, I can’t really argue with what you’re saying.
I think his underlying stats are still reasonable, which suggests he isn’t totally out of form. That, and the fixtures, and the uncertainty over who to replace him with, all conspire to make me err on the side of keeping him for now.
That’s an asinine remark, Ivan.
I don’t think anyone has said that they are keeping Salah based on last year. They are keeping Salah because Liverpool will be up against the league’s two leakiest defences.
That is a good point and I have nothing against the guy. Just hate overrated players and not prepared to carry on with blinkers on hoping for miracles. You know very well that I have a B team. It’s Salahless and well ahead. There are plenty of options around with better productions for less.
Does he leave on both?
No Kralin, I have to disagree on this one. We know when someone has been so good previously it’s hard to erase him from your head and hoping that any minute he will start doing the same again. He is still a great player but not good enough value for money in my opinion. And yes, FOMO (fear of missing out) is a mental state with which we all more or less suffer in this game 🙂
I think the decisive move away from Salah, including by people in the top 10k, precedes your comments. So what you speak of is not happening. He is being dropped by sides everywhere.
Good grief!
Why the Kindergarten comment?
Each to their own mate
Well, this is another thing. Very often we are like plankton moved around by the current waves. Now everyone is going mad about Kane. It has been seen before. Kane could totally blank for a while while Salah might start firing as before. It’s the name of the game 😆
Interesting comments. If Salah is not performing well enough guess you ain’t going for Kane either. Neither have exactly set the world alight
Does he leave on both teams? :popcorn: 😉
That is true Smash but we all trying to find that one who might set the world alight and if it’s as early as possible the better. And as much tactics are involved we know that very often luck plays a big part. As for the Kindergarten comment which MH quoted above it wasn’t intended in any derogatory way whatsoever. We are all kids at hart regardless of our age when it comes to this game. .
No init, he is only in my main team from which he is departing 🙂
The big deal about Ivan’s B team is that, guess what, it always does better than his A team. And, gosh, it’s the team he only spends 5 minutes on each week.
It’s very hard not to succumb to catatonia.
Haha, C’mon Kralin. Your B team used to be the best last season if I remember correctly 😉
That was a larky 5-3-2. It finished miles behind. An experiment now abandoned.
Oh OK, I am thinking to drop that stuff as well. It’s kind of a bit of fun and exercise on the side but it could be distactive and confusing at times.
Keeping. Pretty easy decision, looking at the fixtures. Huddersfield and Cardiff are very leaky teams.
+15
I’m keeping. Plum fixtures after City and he’s only 1 goal off of last season start … late bloomer maybe.
I have just taken out Kun for Kane and Bobbyson for Doherty. …. I know it’s early but I’m a loose cannon, a renegade or other such excuses for being a trigger happy dumb ass!
That’s a good point MadHatter about comparing to last season’s start. I remember it was a few gameweeks before he became essential.
Good to hear you and Kralin are Salah ‘keepers’. In all honesty, I think I will keep Salah too, because I’m unsure who to get instead of him between Haz and Sterling. I’ll be dithering over that decision so long I’ll probably keep Salah to avoid having to make the decision! 😀
I have Haz, Salah and now Kane.
However it only leaves me with Ederson as the City contingent.
If I were to choose over Sterling and Haz though it’d be Haz all day long. Set pieces, manager wants him in the final 3rd and zero chance of rotation.
good point hatter. they expect him to score 40 across all competitions and certainly is achievable
I’m thinking of keeping him and ditching Kun for a week, it’s an easier route to reverse the transfer than the 2 moves to bring back Salah with good fixtures after GW8
Yup I’m only keeping Kane for 1 week….Kun fatigue news a factor I’ll be keeping an eye on though…
Keeping till GW10 at least .
Selling. To get Kane. But I can also buy Hazard with my proposed move (with Firmino also getting the boot). All that with 2FT of course. So it’s two attacking Liverpool out and Spurs and Chelsea main hitters in. I’m not entirely sure this pays off in the long term but for now seems better (and more fun) than the anxiety levels around ‘trusting’ Salah to be himself again. Firmino has done well though so I don’t really want to sell him. The problem here is I can’t afford any price changes tonight so I’ll probably won’t be able to wait for the Kun news later in the week which is what’s deterring me from doing that move right here right now. I wouldn’t necessarily do it if 1) hits are involved and 2) it’s just Kane in and a mid priced midfielder like Maddison or the like. In that case you are banking on Salah to blank vs City and I wouldn’t like that either. Plus, he has Huddersfield and Cardiff right away, meaning selling him with hits involved will very easily come to bite you in the arse.
You?
Hi guys, I know early moves are risky during a European week but Kane is tempting me. I just can’t see how to get him in?
2 FTs £0.1 Itb
Ignore this. I’m typing one handed from a hospital bed!
You ok mate?
Didn’t like to ask, sounded half way between something serious and something kinky!
Nurses could very well be the reasoning of the one handed status!
Shows a serious dedication to his fantasy team, either way!
Sorry lads missed a bit. Google Quinsy if you want to see something grosw
The nurses are far too busy for that level of attention to detail!
Yikes. Get well soon.
Looking back on this it does seem a bit of a lonely cry of desperation
It’s all very restrained. Commendably so. Your restraint may deteriorate if they let you watch Cardiff v Burnley.
Though, on the subject, Burnley tonked two past the hapless Cardiff defence, which should be telling us something.
If a lonely cry of desperation is needed then this is the perfect site to do so mate!
Cries of desperation in abundance on here as you well know.
Get well soon buddy
Get well soon mate!
Hi guys, I know early moves are risky during a European week but Kane is tempting me after an average gw. I just can’t see how to get him in?
2 FTs £0.1 Itb
Kun – Kane then hmm, it gets tricky.
You may not want to ditch Liverpool players due to the fixtures, so B Silva to Fraser, or Knockaert, is another way to enable it.
Sorry to hear you’re in hospital.
Downgrade Salah or Mane. Both mids from Pool not necessary.
Kun to Kane and Bilva to Richarlison/Maddison or someone in that bracket?
I know it wipes out City coverage but u can always swap Kane back after this week and Bilva is always gonna be a sub risk
Sorry didn’t realise u had Salah and Mane, maybe 1 of them could make way instead of Bilva?
I think what scares me the most is choosing between Salah + Mane and going without Kun (I’ve been sting before). Is it worth the risk!?
Hopefully – at one level – he’ll be ruled out, and make the decision easy.
Kane v Cardiff is not a bad substitute. Cardiff aren’t too hot on defending.
Maybe wait till more news then. Doubt a price increase of £0.1 will hurt too much.
Thinking Aubamyang out
Lacazette in
Aguero out
Kane in for 1 game week thoughts?
I’d be more than happy with that
If Kane is fit should bang in a few against Cardiff don’t you think?
He’s a great captain option this week – if you have him, that is.
Having people in your side and seeing CAR (H) next to them is no bad thing.
Kane, Mane & Fraser or Mitro, Salah & Dilva?
Really tempted to hit the button tonight, cos I can’t afford it once Kane rises.
Seems a shame to drop Mitro. Can you afford Kane, Mane, Sterling for Kun, Salah, Dilva?
If not, maybe just Kane + Mane for Kun + Salah?
Thanks Chipster.
0.6 short of your first idea.
And I’m not that comfortable with losing Kun.
Morning all,
I want Kane but I dont know whether to get rid of salah or Kun to allow the move.
Would prefer prefer to get rid of salah to be honest.
Thoughts?
If I do go with salah, who you prefer:
Maddison or Richarlison to come in.
Zaha or mitro to go.
Check out Mitro’s looming opposition. He’s someone I’d definitely want in.
There was a lot of chat about this last night.
Kun is carrying an injury and Salah has excellent fixtures on the horizon. I mean seriously good, when you look at the defensive records of 75% of Liverpool’s opposition in the 4 games following City.
Straight-swap wise it seems more logical to do the Kun/Kane switch rather than fiddling round with 2FTs.
Having said all that, if managers are planning to wildcard after GW8 (IB) then this week isn’t a bad time to do the 2FT fiddle about to get Kane in. In fact it may define whether or not they do WC.
Morning Kralin.
My WC is gone but I do have 2 FTs, the easiest way to get Kane in for Kun would be Alonso to a 5.5 defender.
Still thinking salah
Thoughts?
