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.

nishant
Yes mate
A rare sight

Mixed feelings after that! Chelsea just keep on going. Today’s negatives for my FPL team:
– West Ham score 4 but Payet (a 9.1m investment…) only serves up 5 points.
– Foster (5) on the bench with Pickford (2) wasting his place.
– Valencia lost his CS in the last few minutes.
Can’t really complain with 60+ though. Thankful that I brought Ibra back in! How did you do?
nishant
Very happy
Zlatan Haz all giving me smiles
But if I had to boast for someone
Is he a magician, is he a superstar?
No…. The name is
Tom Heaton
jamesimmo
Good stuff, nishant, what a performace from Tom that is!
Pancho
James, Payet is on 3 bonus so you’re good to go on that one!
jamesimmo
What?! Are you serious? I didn’t even bother checking aha!
Miraculous — and great — news if that remains.
Successful day for you too?
Pancho
James, a bit of a mixed bag, but Zlatan as cappo means green arrows are almost guaranteed.
Andy
Mixed feelings? I’d be surprised if anyone can match a 60+ effort mate, I think I might be rolling in at around 50ish with four to go, bringing Ibra in was a good move.
jamesimmo
Andy, you’ve made me feel guilty now aha, that’s pretty solid with 4 to play. I’m all out.
DMC
James – I wouldn’t see an assist as something ‘not good enough’ but I get you, I also have him and 4 goals from WH would suggest more from him. The good news is that he seems to have collected all 3 bps!
jamesimmo
DMC, true that, it’s just a little frustrating to see cheaper options, such as Antonio, scoring for fun. Are you eyeing up a replacement for him? Coutinho’s back soon…
DMC
James – I am, especially after the previous two home gw blanks. Today’s 8 pts will ask some questions though. Need to reassess. I do want Miki so…
jamesimmo
Mkhi’s a good shout as well… we’re down to 6 with Payet now!
DMC
Humm booo
SAFs_hairdryer
67 for me including BPS with Eriksen & Kane to play. Chuffed with that. Late Burnley & Sunderland goals cost me 2 CS
SAFs_hairdryer
Just seen that everyone above me in my ML capped Sanchez. It just gets better!
jamesimmo
That’s a great score, mate, especially given the players left and 8 points lost. Well played!
SAFs_hairdryer
Thanks James. Not so bad yourself!
constantine
On 63 with Walker,Pieters,Allen and Kane to go..Went with Hazard as captain..he missed atleast 3..still happy that i own ibra..changed the picture single-handedly in the end.Best part of today’s games is Caroll’s 91st minute goal.Hope Kane too scores a goal tomorrow..How did you fare? city still left to play though
Mitro
62 with stones, lallana, Kane and origi to go!
As this is stones last performance in my team I need him to go out with some big points!!
P.S do we think hazard will get the assist for Pedro 2nd goal?
Mitro
Stones you cunt
inittowinit
Lol, you couldn’t make it up!
SAFs_hairdryer
You can’t help but laugh. My sympathies
DMC
You can also cry for my ML rival had kolarov who is now bound for a cleanie (and who knows what more…). FFS! Can’t complain too much though I’m having a good gw.
constantine
Is it possible?havent seen the goal though
Pancho
Bad news on Stones Mitro… good score though!
wazzalam
Yeahhhhh….Ibrahimovic, Pedro, Antonio, Reid and Cech.
However, I should transfer Pedro/Iheanacho for GW19. give me some idea! Many thanks
banjomaker
Looking like a nice GW there wazza. For me I’d be addressing the iheanacho problem as a priority.
theswirly
I think Santa may have answered my request for a green arrow this gameweek!
banjomaker
Exactly the same points as me (with Pieters & Mane left to play). I’m pretty happy as Ake & Costa’s suspensions left me with a couple of weak players in my 11 today.
