Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 8
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 8. It’s an early start this GW with a Friday kick-off and as ever with these things we hope you don’t join us for Live Match Chat with that sinking feeling of ‘why on earth have they posted Live Match Chat on a Friday night…’. And if you do (looking at you Raz!), don’t say we didn’t try to remind you as it was posted on each and every article this week at some point. Whether you made it in tact or not let’s crack on with the games.
Brighton have the early pleasure of a very much in-form West Ham coming to town on Friday evening. Saturday then sees us with five 3pm games beginning with a resurgent Burnley hoping to build on momentum at home to a struggling Huddersfield. Palace host Wolves in what should be an entertaining and close encounter, as should Leicester vs Everton. Spurs host Cardiff in what should by rights be a shellacking, or at least any Kane captainers will hope to be the case. Watford vs Bournemouth looks another one that is hard to call. Saturday evening may be the straw that finally breaks Jose’s back, and oh the irony if it is indeed Rafa who gets to waft it. Some stories you just can’t write… #here’s hoping
Sunday sees three games beginning with Mitro testing out Arsenal’s defensive resolve, followed by Saints trying and (probably) failing to blunt Hazard and co. Then it’s the game of the week at 4:30pm as Pep tries to exorcise his one real demon in English football thus far: Klopp.
THE GAMES IN FULL
Keep track of all the action, the goals, the talking points, right here at FF247 Live Match Chat, an interactive chat which encourages you to keep involved and share your thoughts and emotions as the matches take place.

Jose rising from the dead?
hope he stays when we face them dreamers. need a win against them!
He is still not out of the woods.
better than an hour ago though lads
That is what you call a comeback :smiling:
It’s not good though, they’re barely winning Newcastle who have been poor all season…
They just wanted to create a late drama to what has been a rather weird afternoon of football.
Proud of how our team played, Man Utd didn’t deserve the win. Fickle glory supporters and Jose deserve each other, hope they win nowt this season! Other than that I’m not bothered!
Just paints over the cracks for a few weeks doesn’t it?, got juventus twice, Chelsea and City coming up
Hope they get a spanking! Happy in FPL today so I’ll not let an expected defeat dampen my spirits!
To be honest should have had a pen at 2-0 don’t you think?, at 3-0 game is over
Yeah but then we prob should have had one against us just after, never mind, I expected a defeat, at least we scored a couple of decent goals. On to the next match!
Averages so far…
thanks init, wouldn’t call these numbers high…
*waiting for some miracle to happen in the pool-city game
Oh Harry you troll. This might completely ruin my good start to this year
17 from 4 don’t know why I bother!
14 from 6 including capt and bonus point… just one of those days i suppose…
I hope it can only get better,
🙁
Absolutely… Tomorrow is another day and with 7 players still to play for you (5 for me) this g/w can easily turn around. Just accept that your gonna have days like this and hope there few and far between. Fine margins with clean sheets and captain picks and the scores could be so different, makes the game what it is so I try never to let it bother me on the bad days.
You’re speaking my language, Bongo.
At least Trippier got 1 bonus point. There is always light.
ouch.. i’m with you guys. worst possible start… however i could resist on transferring kane in
I was thinking of getting him last night but had a vodka instead!
Great decision Carolyn
But which vodka Carolyn?
I had a calvados- and brought him in.
GW so far saved by one or two others. W-B seemingly in decline. The world is crumbling around me.
Note to self: never drink calvados in your life
Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it. It’s been a journey for me.
I used to neck 3 or 4 Special Brews before making my weekly transfer and selecting my captain. I’d end up with Bong as my triple captain before passing out.
Bathos is no bad thing. Just a couple of nips of calvados and I usually make a rational choice. I was a bit wilder this week, knowing the wildcard was coming.
I can understand that, but you’d be surprised that the Finns are a cognac people… You really need the eau-de-vie or you’ve got nothing…
Eau de vie de mirabelle, yes, very nice (in very small doses).
Otherwise it’s L’Assommoir territory with that stuff.
I feel your pain mate, a rare good week (so far) for me, your overall rank is good though, I’m yet to break 100k!!
Cheers mate, with the players you have left the 100k is doable this g/w with a bit of luck. Game has barely started so I’m happy where i am at this stage big time, I normally chase team value and come good in the second half of the season but this year I haven’t started to badly, happy days
Thanks mate, I can almost smell it!! Haha ffix has me at 102,000 ish so closing in and a decent jump… until Hazard/Aguero put me back down tomorrow!!
Haha, yeah I’m hoping Hazard doesn’t go booloo tomorrow as he would of been my captain if I hadn’t of done the infamous Aguero to Kane transfer… seemed such a good idea at the time
Still plenty to play, you’ll be fine!
11points from 6. Nightmare
Ouch! What your OR?
I was ranked 34k mate, predicted rank now is 83k unfortunately. Horrible day.
Still better than me! Just write it off and look forward to GW9!!
Ah, I feel your pain. Bad luck. On another day you’d be on 50 points.
Hopefully Chelsea will run riot tomorrow and turn it all round.
Cheers Kralin. Pretty sickened to be honest. Got rid of Kun for Harry and took the cpt off Hazard and put it on Kane. One of those weeks.
Yeah, there’s always next week. And plenty of time to plan it.
The debate then will be City v Burnley and Liverpool v Huddersfield.
And Kane will probably score 3 v WHU.
That’s true mate. Don’t want to do anything to drastic but need pool attacking cover in.
Vardy- Firminio
Mahrez- De Bruyne if back
Zaha- Joselu to afford it.
-8 unfortunately
God I’d love it if KdB came back in for week 9 (though I’ll probably put in a placeholder).
Vardy has ok fixtures though Firmino’s are better.
If he’s back he’s definitely coming in mate for sure.
I’m not to keen on selling vardy but I have madisson. Hopefully Bobby is a better option.
