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.

Hello, 2 FTs and 0.1m in bank. Any suggestion? Maybe benteke eriksen to lukaku snodgrass?
Kane to Costa and then next week get rid of redmond
manutd – I dont like those transfers. Maybe Amat to Ake so as not to lose a trf? Kane to Costa ?
Yeah not a fan of those moves. Kane to Costa
hi all,
I could do a -4 to get in Bellerin for Holebas. It would mean that Siggy is downgraded to Zaha
Here is the thing
I would then have DDG, Bellerin and Alonso amoungst my defenders. It seems too much.
The alternative is just to do Holebas to Brunt or Ake
What do you think?
What’s the rest of your team? For some reason when I click it takes me to my team?!
Hey Mitro
DDg/Pickford
Alonso, Williams, Amat, Holebas, Pieters
Hazard, Sanchez, Siggy, Philips, Fletcher
Costa, Ibra, Origi
No – don’t put in bellerin mate – you will need some cash to get in kun at some stage 😉
true – hard to see where coming from though (funds) to get Aguero
When he bags 5 against Burnley you will find a way! 😉
I think I’d prefer Siggy to Lallana or Walcott depending on fitness
I’d still hold Siggy for his next 2 games,isnt Zaha going to Afcon ? Not sure Bellerin is worth his price but Brunt could be great over the coming weeks.
good point re Zaha and Brunt looks a good option – cheers Brooky
Brunt has looked good. A lot depends on If Nyom goes to the African nations. If he does Brunt will probably be back at LB
Think Nyom has said he isnt going and Fifa are supposed to be taking some sort of action if i read it somewhere properley ??
Yeah just not sure what. They can suspend him can’t they. I want to put Nyom in
Eligible for AFCON but not yet capped…for Ivory Coast…
Hazard, Sanchez, Costa, Ibra, Aguero – is it as simple as 4 of those only can be afforded?
I saw a decent team earlier on here with all of them in it. But yeah I can only really afford 4 of them
Same here or my team would look like this
West Ham getting some form again
Which team looks better?
Costa’s price will be frozen for another six or seven days as he’s just been unflagged so if possible I’d probably not take a -8 on rushing him back in if the finances can take it as we’ll be getting another two free FT’s with the short turnaround between GW’s.
I’d also prefer Coutinho over both Firminio and Lallana but I’m not exactly sure when he’ll be fit again.
Team1 – for me…
Which players are u taking out and is your keeper injured?
I’d be taking out either Defoe or Llorente up top depending on which option is better. I’d be taking out KDB in midfield and De Gea in goal. Need to move one of my big mids in order to finance Costa.
Evening all
Is it worth a hit to bring in lukaku v hull or better just to wait until his tasty fixtures from 21 onwards and grab him for free then.
Cheers
Who for?
It’d be downgrading eriksen to bench fodder to upgrade diomande and play 3-4-3 instead of 3-5-2
Lukakus form isn’t bad but it may pay to wait until the Spurs game is played. Eriksen is in pretty decent form.
