Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 8.
These GW’s get earlier and earlier. We begin this one with a 4pm deadline on Friday as Brighton and Burnley go all Box Office on us. Ever that hardy and all that… The late game is at 8pm as Southampton begin life sans Danny Ings against Newcastle.
Saturday sees the now normal succession of games beginning at 12.30pm with Everton hosting Man United and ending at about 10pm as West Ham and Fulham do battle in the late one (8pm KO). In between Palace and Leeds occupy the 3pm slot and Sheffield United go to Chelsea at 5.30pm.
It’s another marathon on Sunday as West Brom and Spurs kick us off at 12pm, Leicester host Wolves at 2pm, it’s the biggie at 4.30 pm as Pep welcomes Jurgen before Arsenal and Villa welcome in the International Break at 7.15pm.
The games in full…

Time to forget FPL for at least next 7 days and free your mind for a fresh restart.
The latter.
EARLY TRANSFERS DURING IB RESULTS TO HITS ON HITS
Someone will get injured and someone will get COVID surely. Also prices stagnate anyway
Just out of interest, do many of you guys still have your WC intact? And for those of you that still have it, are you trying to save it until the latest possible GW?
Wish I had one as messed mine up. There’s an argument for as late as possible but also one now or next week with the fixture swing for a lot of teams. I’m sure some injuries and something COVID related will happen in this break too
I’ve seen a lot of talk about the fixture swing. Obviously the big swing is in favour of City but if I’m being honest I’m in no rush to get either KdB or Sterling.
I’ve currently got double Spurs and am considering Grealish as my Son replacement.
City is the big one with Spurs. There are others though as well. I don’t think City are showing much at all KDB and Sterling look out of form to me and I thought Liverpool should have won that game comfortably. The flip side I find it hard to believe they don’t smash Fulham, Burnley and West Brom at home.
Agree…MC don’t inspire me at all. Maybe down the line.
The same with MU other than Fernandez. Don’t have him yet either.
Ive held mine and plan to keep it until later. Not sure when Utd and City have their DGW but ideally I’d build towards that then wildcard afterwards to have a good balanced team heading into the 2nd half of the season. That’s the plan anyway
Unless they get knocked out of Europe early, the earliest the DGW can be is GW18/19 and you have to use the WC by GW16. But credit to you for not having used it yet.
That kind of ruins the plan then :suicide:
I’m still intact.
Yes saving it until the last bit of gristle has been gnawed off the bone.
TAA set to be out for up to 4 weeks!
Wonderful. I was expecting 4 weeks best case thought calf might even be 6 weeks or so which it could still be I guess
I’m fancying a punt on Neco Williams as Mitchell replacement while TAA is out
Could be Milner or Gomez though not sure
True, Milner could drop back there. Gomez I think will be centre back with Matip
Could be Fabinho with Matip and Gomez at RB. Would be great if Klopp came out and said we will give Williams a chance though
Without van Dijk in the team I can’t see Neco starting against Leicester.
Hey guys, a long way to go yet but what do you think should be my priority for GW9?
1FT and 2.6m
Players I like:
Grealish
Ziyech
Fernandes
Podence/Son the likely make ways.
All good options I like all three. I’d probably say Bruno as I think he’s the best captain pick. You might have a Wilson problem I’m anticipating
I only just got Wilson! Gutted.
You think he’ll be out for a while?
Yeah same got him this week. Newcastle media are fearing its long term and he has a history of hamstring injuries
Best wait for some news then!
Was due to have a scan today which is not usually a good sign so hopefully something soon
Yikes…! Might have to go for Watkins… Them knees they are ‘a jerkin’ :wacko:
I have similar team and problems. I was thinking of Bruno, Bamford and 4.5-4.6 defender (not sure who, maybe West Ham one) for Jimenez, Podence and TAA. Not sure if I do it now or wait until IB is over or after one Walls game with Southampton.
Somehow I fancy Vardy will be the next (GW10) Bandwagon. Can see him on a rampage going for Golden Boot.
I really don’t, well not on the evidence so far. He’s not looked great his goals in open play (only 3) have all come against high line defences and Leicester have had 8 pens this season which is on course for 38 if things continue at that ratio. He’s not done much else and he plays generally deep lying defences after Liverpool.
