Live Match Chat Gameweek 18 FPL News
Welcome to Live Match Chat Gameweek 18 FPL News: “It’s Christmastime; there’s no need to be afraid”… Sir Bob obviously never played FPL at Christmas. Then again, “And the Christmas bells that ring there,
Are the clanging chimes of doom”, maybe he did! It’s the day after the big one and we all wake up to find out whether the FPL Gods will be kind to us with rotation or if they will kick us in the Bob Geldofs. We hope you had a wonderful Christmas Day with the family, or doing whatever it was you did. It’s over now though, back to the (second) day job – FPL. And we are in full swing today with no less than 8 games. Cruelly, at least for those who indulged properly, we begin with an early kick off which means it’s an 11.30am deadline today. We hope this news doesn’t come as a shock to many and equally that if it does that you are reading this prior to 11.30am! We have the early game followed by six 3pm kick offs before Hull and Man City round off Boxing Day for us with the evening game. The GW itself then continues on Tuesday and Wednesday with a solitary game on each day. Just for housekeeping purposes there is a break on Thursday but then GW19 begins on Friday and there is a game every single day then up until, and including, the following Wednesday. Just to confuse matters that run of games spans two GW’s – the break is between Sunday and Monday when 19 ends and 20 begins. Worry not though, we shall keep you well informed of when you need to wake up! In the meantime please join us to talk about the happenings on the pitch during GW18 and share your teams joys or woes as the games go on.

Evening! Any ideas on how to salvage my team? 2FT and 0.7m itb
Best I’ve come up with is firmino and kane to hazard and lukaku
MelonCat
On second thoughts that would give me 4 chelsea players..
Smash10
Kane to Zlatan
Raziel
Zlatan for sure.
captain-kingpin
Your team is in great shape. I’d stick with firminho after his goal tonight. Agree with the above; zlat and consider captainining him.
dawids11
guys, what do you reckon after today’s performance will Origi keep his place? i’d have more iportant issues to fix than replacing him..
Smash10
I reckon he will start against City. Though he will be dropped when Coutinho is back
Raziel
It’s actually the main reason I did not pick him. How did Sturridge look today?
Smash10
Yeah think I’ll try and replace him with Aguero next week and sacrifice Hazard.
Sturridge did not do a lot really just the goal which was a gift from Shawcross
dawids11
thanks Smash

On 65pts after Lallana’s goal and the assist from Pieters…
Not bad…considering I wasn’t expecting any points from Pieters…
“Every man and his dog” have Walker & Eriksen tomorrow, so I don’t expect a big change in the general rankings…
Think we can “call it a night” and start planning for next GW !
TheDreamers
hey HL – I’m done with 71, no Spurs coverage
HL [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
@Dreamers
Hey mate!
Nice score…
What are your plans re: Kun ?
Are u ok with having Ibra & Costa or are you switching one of them to Kun?
swampster
I think Walcott is my own personal FF troll! Never seen to have luck with him……has anyone heard anything about his injury please?
Mitro
Minor calf problem – should be fit for GW19
swampster
Cheers Mitro, lets see if he can troll me again then!
Mitro
77 (-4) with Kane to go – not bad!
Smash10
Great score. Done any moves yet?
Mitro
Oh yes
Mitro
Did Kane to Costa last night – just deciding on who to replace stones with!
0.4 ITB
Smash10
Nice expect I’ll do that move as Kane is going down. Aguero next week?
HL [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
Reid/Cedric/PVA/Ake ?
Matt
Mitro anyone would be an improvement over Stones!!!!
Mitro
Yes – just debating on who to lose to fund the move; Sanchez or hazard!! It’s starting to stress me out 😉
Mitro
HL – got it down to Cedric Ake or P.Jones!
Mitro
Matt – ha ha; he’s been proper gash! Had him since the start as well!
Matt
It was either Week 2 or 3 that I sold him and glad I did!! Haha
Matt
87 points with Vert and VVD left to play!! Really hoping to hit 100 but I’m pretty sure a 0-0 draw only gets me to 99, someone please tell me I’m wrong!
HL [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
Massive score !
Well done!
Matt
Cheers Hannibal. How did you do this week??
HL [Dr. Hannibal Lecter]
@Matt – 68pts with Walker & Eriksen still to play…
TheDreamers
well done Matt – big score
Matt
Cheers Dreamers just seen yours and Hannibals scores above and well done to the both of you some big scores this week!! I’m guessing we all had Ibra as cap??
Mitro
Matt – great score but I do hope it isn’t a 0-0 tomorrow!! 😉
Matt
You have Eriksen?? 😉
Mitro
Kane
inittowinit
0-0 does me fine, double Spurs defence left here!
