Live Match Chat Gameweek 29 FPL News
Welcome to Live Match Chat Gameweek 29 FPL News: After an odd GW with just the four games we are back to normal this week with a full compliment of ten to go at again this time. West Brom and Arsenal kick us off at lunchtime on Saturday and then we have no less than five 3pm games with the Palace boring Watford, Everton battering Hull, Stoke pathing the title pathway for Chelsea, Sunderland giving Burnley their best chance yet of an actual away win and then West Ham being Leicester’s latest victims since they woke up again and remembered that they are the champions. Saturday doesn’t end there though as Bournemouth host Swansea in a key game at the wrong end of the table. Sunday brings us the remaining three fixtures as ‘Boro host Man United in the early one, Spurs take on Southampton in the middle one and then Man City and Liverpool book end the lot in what could be the game of the week.

86 points from my WC team! I’m nervous not having Aguero vs Arsenal as their defense let in 3 against WBA. Holding off til after Chelsea though. Hoping Sanchez is ok so I can save my ft this week. Maybe it’ll keep him from suiting up for Chile?! #WishfulThinking…
banjomaker
What’s people’s thoughts on Josh King? He’s obviously on fire, but has some tough fixtures coming up. Best to leave him alone? Or worth bringing in as someone who’ll play every week? Anyone else worth considering for less than 7.0?
Wafflez
Tadic , 7 million and nice fixtures and dgws coming
TheDreamers
Wafflez – when is the dgw?
Wafflez
Not set yet . Gw 34 and 37 and some teams might have dgws in other week also i think
banjomaker
Why do people keep suggesting scummers 😉 Thanks Wafflez, but I can’t consider anyone from that team.
Smash10
Probably Son
banjomaker
That could be a great shout smash. Is Son guaranteed to be starting up top in Kane’s absence?
Smash10
I reckon so. Jansson is in the background but he’s terrible. A good indication was he only came on right at the end
Neilos
He’s a must have I’d say. I’m Keeping him for the season end now
banjomaker
Cheers Neilos. Do the upcoming fixtures not concern you? The moves I’m looking at are Llorente & Siggy to Vardy & King.
Brookyboy
I wouldnt be taking Siggy out.He’s one of the most consistent performers and still has great fixtures !
inittowinit
I’d leave Siggy in. Top assister in the league with 11 and 8 goals also.
Wafflez
I wouldn’t transfer out Sigurdson tbh.
Andy
For 5.7 a mid who’s been playing as either a striker or second striker is very good value no matter the fixture, seems a perfect fit for that fourth midfield spot. Stanislas is due to return though so that might affect King a little but I’m not really sure, I’m no real expert on how Bournemouth play.
banjomaker
To afford Vardy I need to make 0.7. My current midfield is Mane, Sanchez, Alli & Siggy. Not too keen on losing any of the others. I guess I could downgrade the defence further!
Neilos
Hey Banjo Liverpool Chelsea Spurs is hard but he could score. Plus on pens too, but after that it’s a good run! Go for it!!
Neilos
Banjo keep siggy!
Smash10
Swansea have played more games than everyone else. They have Boro next but after their fixtures tend to sour
banjomaker
I think you’ve all successfully convinced me to keep Siggy!!!! I’m now leaning towards Llorente & Baines to Vardy & Huth. Only problem is I have no wiggle room on price, so would need to make the moves very early.
inittowinit
That makes sense Banjo.
Smash10
Huth and Vardy does make more sense
TheDreamers
Bournemouth have scored as many as Utd. I don’t have him either. Considering whether he is needed given those fixtures.
ChrisOllie25
Had a decent week. Scored 70 points moved up by 100K to 800K, still a poor ranking
inittowinit
That’s a fair old jump Chris. Keep plugging away. 500k is your target.
ChrisOllie25
Yes hopefully! Glad I have 2 FT for the next gameweek. Was looking to bring in Alexis but have to check his fitness
Andy
It’s going to be a hard slog getting up the OR as it’s pretty condensed in and around that area, the good news is though that you’re only around 25 points adrift of the top 500k so it’s all still to play for, sometimes the better years are where you’re trying to fight back from a disastrous start.
ChrisOllie25
True, on paper my team looks good but for one reason or another I don’t get the points that I deserve
Raziel
Hmm, scored 71 points. Sort of happy I kept faith in Firminho. New rank 52.555. Need to end up in top 50k but hoping for the top 10k.
inittowinit
What’s your worst rank Raz? I always try and make sure I’m inside that. Set that particular bench lower last season though with 84k. Sat at 99 now so should be well within it.
Smash10
Raz always seems to have a good rank. I’m heading towards my worst ever rank. However still clinging to those doubles
inittowinit
That’s a mightily impressive and consistent history Smash. But yeah, bit of work to do this time yet!
Smash10
Yeah a lot. It all strangely went downhill around Christmas . I usually start weak and get stronger but this year has been a struggle
Smash10
I have seen a couple of people on here do better with 2 teams. I have never tried it
Raziel
I had a really bad rank a few seasons ago. Outside of the top 100k. That was my second season I think, and it was the first time I managed two teams. Also the last time. Lol!
Anyway. I sort of focussed on the other team, not this one. I used my main account for experimenting with players. HAHA! So stupid. Anyway. Since then two top 10k rankings.
SAFs_hairdryer
Did anyone break the 100 point barrier this week? Seems like a lot of decent scores.
Mid 80s for me and the 3 above me in my ML still beat me. Now 100 points adrift and looking at an Arsenal style March meltdown
Andy
100 points is still well within reason with 2 double GW’s and one or two chips left in hand, the trick is not to panic and try for the extreme differentials too early (It sounds like your rivals have similarish teams to yours).
I’ve not hit the ton yet this season but I’e always got them fingers crossed for the next GW.
Smash10
100 points is doable. Very tough though. It will all be ok the doubles. And probably ditching all the players who have played more games at the right time
ChrisOllie25
I did 100 with Sergio triple captain in DGW
constantine
Having best of the season since I’ve started playing FPL. Continuos 7th green arrow has made me reach 32k from 220k. keeping faith in players who are in good form even when they have one bad week, has paid off well. Hope I continue this form till the end. Thank you very much for all your support guys. Keep up the top stuff. Much appreciated.
