Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 30
Well, well, well we did it, a green arrow after our wonderful set of superstars defied the average to deliver an 82pt week, our second highest weekly score of the season. Our team was solid throughout apart from our keeper Lloris who didn’t cover himself in glory in the derby and brought home just a solitary point for us. But let’s not focus on him, there is more positive news from our outfielders. Our defence, well, it’s never been so productive – clean sheets from Kompany and Rangel was slightly tarnished when van Dijk and the Saints allowed Sunderland a goal – but all was not lost, oh no, for our man himself powered in an equaliser and a couple of bonus points to boot. Our midfield stars were Payet and Mahrez, while young Alli chipped in with an assist. Ozil did nothing, shame on him. Same with Vardy, nothing. What a let down those two have been this season!! Kane scored in the derby for a six pointer while Captain Kun delivered 22pts despite missing a penalty, the numpty. So it was a good week and we rose nearly 200k places and now sit at 714,651. Not great obviously, but better, and touch wood, going in the right direction.
Transfer decision for GW30 – Sold Payet, Bought Sigurdsson
Tough one this! We didn’t really want to lose either Payet or Ozil for a variety of reasons – both have been uber consistent point scorers this season and both have DGW’s coming up some time soon. In fact when we looked at our original squad for this week we’d perhaps over-planned it as we had 12 starters even before any transfer! The fact is though that 5 of those were defenders and 1 was a midfielder who faces the Saints and they have the 2nd best defensive record away from home and he isn’t exactly a goal machine to begin with!
We had 2 FT’s in hand as well so rather than lose one we compared having Ozil v Payet v Siggy over the next few weeks and concluded that Siggy actually had the best run (including Villa at home next week, BOOM!), Ozil perhaps the next best and Payet perhaps the worst. Ergo we sold Payet for Siggy. That may well be a short term move and we will surely have Payet back in soon enough, especially for any potential double but we also have the crutch of a full set of chips in hand – WC, BB, TC and even the AOA for some reason!

Captain – Kane
It’s a peculiar quirk of this reduced game-week that we have almost as many viable captain choices as we do actual games taking place! Kun was Kane’s main rival in our voting and would have pipped it only for a couple of last minute deserters! Kane takes pride of place then, rested, fresh and ready to beat up on a Villa team who gave up the ghost a good few weeks ago.
Our vice-captain is Kun
Deserted but not altogether forgotten.

Cookie
Morning all, the site team is live!
constantine
thats a good team cookie..front 5/6 would be common in half the teams this week i reckon..OK, asking for the last time: Kane for a -4. advisable??Lukaku has to go, a sure DGW player
Cookie
I would Constantine, in fact I did! He’s playing Villa after all
By the way, check out Potty’s Comp article for this week 😉
constantine
Thanks Cookie..And woaah..have i really got lucky here? hope this continues for the rest of the season.awesome news to start the day with. rest i’ll thank potty in his thread..cheers mate
Cookie
Make sure you email with your details mate!
constantine
Cookie, Sent already buddy..cheers
NIN
Good stuff guys. Good luck, hopefully it’s a half decent one at least
Mitro
So the guys are going with Kane very interesting!
Still on Kun
Mitro
Morning gents,
Who would be the better shout this week
Siggy or Arnautovic?
This is currently my team:
Cookie
Hold your transfer. I won’t tell you again
Mitro
Morning cookie – my reasoning behind it is that all my opponents will only be fielding 5-8 players and I could gain a massive advantage on them this weekend! Plus my main opponent has Arnautovic!
NIN
It’s just a blatant rub in now 😉
Leave as is mate, f@#k Arnie
constantine
Mitro, You have a decent looking team already, Save your FT for future DGWs.
Mitro
Morning Constantine – don’t worry mate I have all my chips except for AOA!
constantine
Mitro, If you are planning to use your WC in GW33, then its advisable to do the planned moves as your idea should be to maximize the points/lead before the DGWs. But, if you wish to use it after the double gameweek 34, I’ll suggest you to hold on to them or use wisely..
Kop Warrior
Mitro, don’t be daft and just bank the transfer!
Mitro
Is this reverse pscyhology? Telling me not to do it so I in fact do it?
Kop Warrior
You always do what you want to do, so does it really matter? 😉
Mitro
Every time I do a transfer it is for glory
The B
Save the FT. You have a sweet 4-3-3 this GW. Wouldnt want to bench any one of your defenders.
With that said, my preference would be Siggy. Cause its SIGGY!
Smash10
Even you can’t justify a hit here Mitro
Mitro
Smash I have 1 FT 😉
Smash10
So will enable you 3 transfers next week
Kop Warrior
Morning all,
Everyone got XI players for the GW?
NIN
Morning Kop, just ten here on a hit. How are you fixed mate?
Kop Warrior
Yeah I’ve got 11 NIN and I’m rolling over a transfer. So in theory I’m well set but as we’ve seen this season it’s bound to go tits up!
NIN
Indeed. Nothing is certain
Mitro
Hell yeah!!
Kop Warrior
So I’ve seen Mitro
The B
Yup, got 11 but 5 defenders this GW. :cuckoo:
Kop Warrior
So I’ve seen B. If you score well it will be a bloody boring GW 😉
The B
Thats what I am secretly praying for
