FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 2
Welcome to FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 2
GW1 went off sans drama, no last-minute cancellations, no Covid drop-outs, no ad-hoc midweek games, no nothing really. And GW2 begins roughly a week later. Dare we say we could almost be back to normality?*
*touches wood, wishes on a stray eyelash and looks for a four-leaf clover
As for GW2 itself, we begin with two GW1 losers as Villa welcomes Everton at 12:30 That’ll be a cracker…
If you are still awake at 3 pm, then there are actually some intriguing encounters to behold as Leicester goes to Arsenal. At least it is that way around or else seeing Arsenal’s players subjected to the Post Horn Gallop in training would have been almost reminiscent of a scene from Guantanamo Bay. And yes this is too good not to be a regular feature of LMC. Reference All or Nothing if you haven’t got a Scooby what we are on about. Reference Hanna-Barbera cartoons if you don’t know what a Scooby is and work your way backwards.
Anyway, enough rabbit holes… Brighton hosting Newcastle also looks tasty, from a purist’s POV anyway, whereas Man City vs Bournemouth looks scary. At least for the latter. Saints v Leeds should be good, as will be Wolves v Fulham before we have our first relegation six-pointer of the season as Man Utd go to Brentford in the later KO @ 5:30 pm.
Sunday begins at 2 pm with another pair of GW1 losers as Forest welcomes West Ham. The showcase game does look like a cracker at 4:30 as Chelsea and Spurs clash in the Antonio Conte Derby.
We then have our first Monday night game as Liverpool welcome Palace at 8 pm. Enjoy the game week everyone!
The games in full…

I don’t like seeing people posting the prices from http://www.fplstatistics.co.uk/ and I think the person who runs the site should be supported, but I had to post this screenshot of the Man U players
They are being threw out of players teams like yesterdays ………………!
They are shite Termys. Can’t even begin to understand how anyone would pick Mcguire in the first place.
How is Fred in anyone team at that price?
Worth WC to sort midfield and keepers out?..
Got two FT, ideally Odegaard for Martinelli but Coutinho probably needs to go too?…
No WC there surely?
Sort out Odegaard and Coutinho with your two free moves. Plenty of cash there for two decent replacements.
Spot on Geeps.
+ 1 absolutely no reason for a hit let alone the WC
No WC needed. Do Ode to Martinelli see what that leaves for a replacement for Coutinho. Keepers will suffice for now, theres lots of people that have the Leicester double.
Odegaard to Martinelli and Coutinho to Rodrigo
Thanks all, talking sense as usual.
Odegaard & Coutinho was abit of a risk so no complaints..
I’d leave the keepers, you can’t expect a mass of points with them at 4.0. Just enjoy the ones you do get!
3m ITB. Initial thinking something like Bailey and Dalot to Rodrigo and James, leaves 0.5m to upgrade a keeper next week.
Do you think picking Rodrigo is chasing points at this stage if the season ? Quite a few bringing him in.
Not many options in mid priced mids brining points though (except Martinelli). Decent fixtures and will increase TV if nothing else. But yes I’m not completely sold on Ridrigo, more of a stop gap until something better emerges.
Rodrigo and DaSilva are doing much better than Bailey, Neto etc, and they (Rodrigo and DaSilva) have a much better run of games.
Seeing a lot of folks jumping on Rodrigo and Da Silva tonight, a word of caution for snap transfers: play your own game, don’t worry what the masses are doing. Look what happened with Zinchenko this week after on a 1 pointer after so many brought him in.
Very true, there is always going to be a lot of rotation now, but the likes of Sancho, Neto and Bailey etc who lots of people went with have been let down, so do you stick with them or go for Rodrigo and DaSilva for example who are in form and performing well.
I’m leaning towards the latter myself terminators! Those initial players were a punt at most anyway so if they don’t perform in some of their better fixtures after a good preseason then may as well jump on those that are performing and keep your TV from dropping imo! Problem is they probably aren’t worth hits and I’ve just pressed the WC button to shift them myself
I’m wondering what to do with them myself.
Bailey to Rodrigo seems like a no brainer as Bailey didn’t even start
I think it’s still early doors and as others have said, the options are limited at that price bracket. Worth a punt to ride the form for a couple of weeks I feel. Leeds fixtures after Chelsea are okay.
Who are the best midfield options at £7m or £8m?
Foden, Maddison, Kulu?
A lot of people going for Rodrigo but has that ship sailed?
May be Kulu and Bowen are interesting, let’s see what tomorrow brings.
I think there is still time to jump aboard the Rodrigo ship, they have a good run of fixtures, none of the more expensive MID’s seem to be performing other than the likes of Salah, and KdB.
Whichever option would be for Rashford who’s likely to drop in price tonight. Still not entirely convinced so I’ll sit tight and see what tomorrow brings
All 3 are good options. Flip a coin.
Rodrigo next 2 arent easy games so would wait.
5-3-2
Or 4-4-2 with one of Saliba, Walker or Rodrigo on bench each week?
B 442
Cheers Terminators that’s what I’ve gone with
