Live Match Chat Gameweek 16 FPL News
Welcome to Live Match Chat Gameweek 16 FPL News: And the silly season begins… Our first game-week on top of another, quickly followed by another. Expect rotation, expect the unexpected. As much as traditional team selections may go out of the window, expected results often do too. Welcome to the beginning of the reason they give us an opportunity to select 15 playing players. We hope you took that particular gift and didn’t squander it as it’s one you may well need, starting this evening, in all probability. Talking of which we begin with two games on Tuesday as Bournemouth face a suddenly rejuvenated Leicester, don’t get too excited though, they won’t get to play against Stones and co every week. Arsenal then face a beleaguered and strangely uninterested Everton at Goodison. Wednesday then sees a bumper night with 8 fixtures in total with the likes of Spurs, Man City and Chelsea all having games from which they should, in theory, have us all celebrating good fantasy points…
Whether they do or not please feel free to join us on the journey and post your thoughts, feelings, frustrations and hopefully celebrations. And no doubt the odd rate my rate as GW17 follows in quick succession!

Damn, I am going to enjoy watching Sanchez destroy City upcoming weekend. Pep getting out his purse, he will try to purchase him.
+1..Pussy Pep..Not even giving any gametime to Iheanacho..Go die MF
Ay ay, it’s only a game mate.
What was firminho like Anybody watch?
Dude is frustrating me
Took a hit to swap him for Mane. Shoulda picked Lallana!
Firmino functions well whenever he plays as the forward for Liverpool, which was why he had many points + it helped that Coutinho was available. By no coincidence, Liverpool were much better towards the second half when he played as a 9 but I suppose Klopp cannot play him there given the injuries that we have
Now that Origi plays forward, Firmino is shifted to the flanks and that has seen his contributions dropped by some bit. I would shift Firmino out for Lallana/Mane for what it’s worth, not that the player is doing poorly but he just isn’t in the position to get points for FPL
1. Origi was subbed off towards the end but it looked like a cramp more than an injury. Would recommend getting him in for those shifting Nacho out as the players is doing alright and gets in the right positions to score
2. Lallana is an excellent buy for his price and he is scoring much more this season with his late runs into the box. He gets into the box the most amongst Liverpool’s 3 midfielders, which is why he gets his fair share of points – I think I would sell my Son for him this GW
3. Firmino to Mane could work also as the player is getting sharper and is getting A LOT of touches in the box. Was unlucky to not score today as he hit the post
Great information Neo
Appreciate that thank you. I do like Lallana and I would advise anyone to buy him if they had no Liverpool coverage but if you are swapping Mane to him, Mane would probably light up the next game. Sod’s law at Liverpool just now.
How crucial is Lallana? Was planning on Alonso and Can in for Koscielny and Fletcher. Would Ake and Lallana be better transfers?
Heaton Pickford
Walker Koscielny McAuley Holebas Amat
Sanchez Hazard Eriksen Siggy Fletcher
Kane Costa Anichebe
That would be a very nice looking 3-5-2 with Lallana. I prefer that move.
Ake and Lallan would be better.. Can’s gametime is not guaranteed.. U need to have the players who are guranteed starters with the fixtures coming thick and fast
Thanks banjo and praveen. Hate to lose out on Alonso as I’ve been wanting a Chelsea defender for a while, but it’s doubtful Ake could do any worse than Koscielny has been doing and Lallana looks like a big improvement to my starting 11. Have to move tonight to afford it, wish we had some more news on Hazard!
Lallana and Erikson wouldn’t rise tonight will they?
Nishant
The way I’m reading things here and on twitter they will!
Woohoo, 2 point gain in my ML! That was all a bit of a let down. Kane capo vs Hull versus nobody with Kane, big opportunity missed. Can’t really complain though as my alternative would have been theirs – Costa. I’m not making any points really, just checking in, Adrian Mole style! 45 this week anyway, how’d everyone fare??
34 once fletcher comes in for Hazard. Red everywhere. What annoys me most is the majority of my ML didn’t do a thing, and have kicked my ass!
Happens, but more often than not being on the ball pays off and will over the course of the season, especially at Christmas.
46 from nine starters with a solid 1 incoming from the bench, a bullet dodged really with Kane as (c), no complaints.
61 for me..all defs saved me.and heaton
52 here If Heaton gets 3 and Walker gets 2 BPs
Attack wise, only one goal from all my Mids and strikers included
Funny
Hi Init
42 with 22 of those coming from three defenders!
60 cos of my defenders and heaton.. no goals from my strikers.. its been such a weird GW
and baines coming off the bench and with bonus..
38 here. 2 subs on. Williams, stays on bench. Oh well. Cant win them all
63 (-4), including Williams!
Somehow I managed 62 points with Hazard and Anichebe both injured and a Kane captain fail. Heaton, Eriksen and Walker to the rescue.
33 here, very depressing. Going through a slump. Not sure what to do.
Took out Lovren, bought Siggy instead of Lallana, have Gundog & Iheanacho. Going to find NIN.
Lol cookie! Keep it up mate. You know they’ll come good!
Been saying that for 2 seasons now :popcorn:
Take over Pancho’s sister team then?
Fair comment to be honest
I feel your pain. Brought in Firminho instead of Lallana a few weeks back and also Iheanacho instead of anyone!
am now 140pts off the mini-league leader!
Morning all keep your pecker up Cookie you will turn things around don’t case players stick with a plan I’ll check your team out later keep it going mate 😉
All cool Silvers, bought Alonso in for Kos last night – now have to do something about Gundog and Iheanacho – with no cash in the bank
Unlucky Cookie. Have you got any FTs left?? You could always swap Ihenacho to Origi to sort that out and Gundogan to Philips??
Team A
Or Team B
No hits taken
I’m not ditching Haz to double up on the Pool mids, use Mane to Lallana in a couple of weeks when Mane goes off to the AFCON.
Hmmmm makes perfect sense
How would you improve Team A with 2 FTs aNd 0.8mn in the bank?
nishant
I don’t like Hazard coming out of there (if fit) so I’d vote no. Walcott to Lallana straight?
Ok. So that would leave me with 1.6mn in the bank
Which means I can get in a 6.2mn forward for Anichebe
Or a 6.1mn mid for Marney
Phillips can be brought
Bad fixtures but he would me 5th mid in a 3-5-2
You have better options under 6.1mn?
Zaha is the best in that price bracket.. he plays city though.. after that he has great fixtures..
Sorry Zaha plays chelsea and arsenal..
I like team B.. Eriksen is a must have.. do it..
Cheers guys for all the help
Will wait till the Pressers
Team would look like
Heaton Jaku
Walker Mc Auley Smith Amat Friend
Sanchez Hazard Lallana Erikson Marney
Costa Kane Anichebe
That would leave me with around 2.2mn in the bank
