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.

Am I good to go? Only problem I have is that I want to bring in payet for wiggy next week but I’m 0.1 short so I would have to downgrade someone but I don’t know who.
You won’t want to be selling Siggy next week – he has Villa at home!
I agree with Cookie. That’s a bad move for next week, your team is looking good for this week so sit back and enjoy. your best bet is to wait as an injury to anyone in your team may force your hand anyway
Downgrade any keeper with Elliot or Hennessey
Quite simple this week- 1,2 or 3?
1- No transfers, lose the FT
2- Obertan to King or Hoolahan
3- Payet to Siggy or Silva
What you all think? thanks :dance:
Payet to Siggy
On second thoughts Cookie may be right. Swans got Villa next week
Cookie and Matt
Cheers fellas, will look to get Payet back especially for these double game weeks, whenever they may be!
Payet to Silva for me mate. I can see Bournemouth beating Swansea today
Although I’m late….I would say remove ob this week and then payet next week for siggy
Morning all!
Dropped a clanger when I’d had a few last Saturday night and brought in Ospina for Cech – forgetting about their match against Hull. Still got a starting XI (just!), but would have been nice to have gone on with 2 FTs. Never mind.
Would you mind rating my team in as much as is it worth doing a -4 to change someone?
Cheers!
Barry to anyone you can afford!
Cheers, Cookie – who would you put on the bench instead?
Last minute panic, whats the news on Dier?
Any advice is good advice…..
1FT plenty of dosh,
Thanks.
team…..
If Dier is passed fit then he should start tomorrow. Only a minor ankle issue, i guess he will play
Thanks.
If your fielding 11 this week (especially without taking a hit), your on the right track to a good GW.
Hopefully thats in place before 3 o’clock thanks to captain Kun!
Good luck everyone!
Any news on Dier?
Ben Dinnery says fitness test today, if he passes it he should start. Not ideal for the week thats in it.
I’ve had the armband on Aguero all week but will he play a whole game?
And no Yaya or KDB will they score big?
