Live Match Chat Gameweek 38 FPL News
Welcome to Live Match Chat Gameweek 38 FPL News: And there it was gone! 37 weeks have flashed before your eyes once more. And 38 will do the same as well because all 10 games happen on the same day at the same time. It always seems a bit cruel to have all your FPL hopes and expectations finally decided for you in such a swift fashion. Especially since we’ve all agonised over relatively minor points in game-weeks which have sometimes dragged on for as much as 7 days, as GW37 did. But that’s the way it is. Strap yourself in for a smidgen over 90 minutes. It’ll be agony or ecstasy for many. We hope it works out for you all. It wont. Not for everyone anyway. If it does then feel free to share and celebrate your success. If it doesn’t then know you have friends to share that with too. We’ve all been there and seen both sides of the coin. In a nutshell that is what has made this community great over the years, there’s a mutual understanding and respect and an empathy for whichever way it works out.
As the season comes to a close we would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has been a part of the Live Match Chat discussion throughout the campaign. You make each match day come alive with every comment. It’s been a pleasure to watch each game-week unfold from the eyes of dedicated FPL players but also just football fans in general. The discussions that arise can range from the sublime to the ridiculous but are always entertaining regardless!
Unfortunately we don’t have any World Cup or Euros to entertain and keep us busy over the summer but fear not as we will be staying ‘relatively’ active. We will forgive you if you need a break of course but we have a good number of articles in the pipeline already. We have a couple of interviews lined up and then we plan to gear up for next season with some articles featuring the promoted teams as we always do. And if you are playing MLS then Guy will of course be publishing his tips on that as normal every week. However you choose to spend your FPL free summer we wish you all the best, we thank you for spending the season with us and we hope to see you again in August to begin the merry go round all over again!

This is my team of the week. Hoping the Chelski player start…. lol…
Lol, lol, lol. I wanted to change the color palette of my team but saw the clock. I just know something would have gone wrong. HAHA! ;p
Hazard and Alonso and Costa all play.
Hmm, no way Hazard plays a full game after he played a full game midweek and since they have a cupgame coming. Damn, didn’t expect him to start. This is going to be a Sunderland roast.

Thanks Raz
All my players starting. Giroud benched. Wow.
Mine too. Thanks for sharing the teams Raz. Most of all, happy with Aguero starting. That’s becoming a big doubt now a days
Raz
That is brilliant work.
Thank you pal.
Thanks Raz
Cheers Raz. All my players playing apart from Cahill.
No Giroud for Arsenal
Kane benched???????????
No!
Not funny Constantine!! Well, SORT of funny. But not really.
Not funny. 😉
Would be funny if Vincent Janssen played up top, just for comedy value. Like United and Rooney.
Mourinho is a turd, playing a B-team.
Hoping for a 0-8 scores. 7 goals Bentekers. Demoralize them fraggers.
Sorry guys.. My bad. Saw rotowire not having Kane in the starting line-up
Look at my line-ups, never Rotowire. Shakes head. Do people never learn?
Rotowire probably hacked by teh worldwide virus? ;p
Haha..I know. they bloody didnt have even Son in the line-up. Got a mini attack to me.
So United start with 12 academy players in the team today! All hail Jose! No mind games “for sure” this time!
Competition time – to win one if these lovely if slightly dodgily modelled t-shirts.
Which player will score the first Premier League goal this afternoon?
There will be a random draw in the event of a tie.
Cookie’s Comp
Yaya Toure
