FF247 Site Team News GW34 Made in Chelsea = Rubbish product Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW34. Our Gameweek 34 Result Our GW34 Bench Boost was actually a solid and good team. Minus 3 specific players! We are firmly putting the curses on Sanchez, Palmer and the newest entrant to the Bench Boost Wall of Shame, Joao Pedro! Those 3 players stunk up the place really bad. JP didn’t even bother to show up so we don’t like him anymore. O’Reilly, Haaland, Van Hecke, Strujik, and Groß were star men though all scoring monster double digit hauls. A brilliant 130 points for the BB left us with a nice green arrow of around 1 million boost which leaves us at a rank of 1,325,310. We obviously had to activate our FH this week so let’s go see what we ended up with. Our GW34 Transfer(s)...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW33 Shoot yourself in the foot Our Gameweek 32 Result Or the head! Whatever your preference. Prepping for a DGW always brings the same pitfalls, and we appreciate that we won’t have been alone in this. Of course, we wildcarded last week to fill up for doublers in this. It’s always then a bit a crapshoot as to how you do the week before. Crap being the operative word. We ended up with 51, a whole 5 above the average, along with a small red arrow. The team is below but fair to say that young Nico was left to do the heavy lifting. Other than a couple assists in the midfield that was about all she wrote. We have 1.1m in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of DGW33. Let’s go see what was decided…. Our GW33 Transfer(s) Not a lot! As was expected, tbf. We obvious...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW32 Baaaaaa Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW32 It feels like an age since GW31 wrapped. In fact, we’d almost forgotten it was a blank gameweek, with Arsenal, Man City, Wolves and Palace all taking the week off. Easy to forget when half the league disappears. Looking at our score, though, we actually did pretty well. Yes, there were the usual disappointments — Hill firmly cementing his place at the top of our sh*t list with a -1 — but let’s not dwell on that. Positivity, for once. The highlight of the week was captain Wilson, who delivered 18pts. Not quite Bruno Fernandes levels, but given we don’t even own the Man United talisman, we’ll take that return with open arms and no questions asked. Elsewhere, Gordon chipped in with 10pts, Keane added 8, and Tiago somehow s...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW31 Is it summer yet? Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW31 Things are not looking good for the Site Team this season. It seems to be 1 step forward and 2 steps back each week. A 42 point week left us 1 point below the weekly average and on yet another red arrow. Things have been rough. We only had 3 players return this week with Gabriel, Hill and Thiago all getting something. The rest of our team finished with 1s, 2s and 3s. Not good enough unfortunately. Our Gameweek 30 Result We have 1.5 in the bank and 3 free transfers to use ahead of GW31. Let’s go see what was decided…. Our GW31 Transfer(s) We had a few flags and a few blank players this week so we needed to make some changes. Now thankfully we had built up a bank of transfers. With Miley and James being confirme...[Read More]

Football has always demanded the highest physical standards from its players. In 2026, the sport is supported by a layer of technology unimaginable two decades ago. From GPS tracking systems to concussion protocols and AI-powered injury prediction tools, modern football is as much a science as an art. Understanding these innovations gives fans deeper insight into how elite clubs protect their most valuable assets. What Technology Is Used in Modern Football The most visible technologies in football include VAR, goal-line technology, and player tracking systems. VAR uses multiple camera angles to review contentious decisions within seconds of the incident. Goal-line technology, introduced in the Premier League in 2013, confirms definitively whether the ball has crossed the line. Player track...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW30 Factory settings restored Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW30 Three green arrows on the bounce was lovely while it lasted. Losing those three weeks of progress in one fell swoop, however, is a fairly bitter pill to swallow. Where did it all go wrong? Pretty much everywhere. Only three of our eleven registered a return — Gabriel (11), Semenyo (7) and KDH (9). Thanks, lads. Unfortunately the rest of your teammates decided to sit this one out. Our keeper didn’t turn up, his deputy didn’t exactly inspire confidence, but at least they managed something. That’s more than can be said for VVD, Keane and Mbeumo, who combined for a grand total of 3pts between them. Generous. The rest of our sorry squad of misfits chipped in with the bare minimum. Rice was the only other pl...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW29 Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW29 Our Gameweek 28 Result 4 goals and 6 assists across the team saw us to a reasonably healthy 72 points, 19 above the average. Captain Haaland didn’t make it and unfortunately we went with Thiago rather than Ekitike as the vice. All of this contributed to our 3rd green arrow on the trot, with a 200k+ jump upwards towards some semblance of respectability. Which admittedly is still a way off this season! We have 1.5m in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of GW29. Let’s go see what was decided…. Our GW29 Transfer(s) – HELD For now we have decided to hold our transfer. We have Haaland and Rice on the watch list with yellow flags. If the former doesn’t make it we are unlikely to do anything other than let the ...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW28 DEFCON Monsters Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW28 DEFCON contributions have dominated conversations on X in recent weeks. We fall firmly into the “take the points and say thank you” camp. This week we were the grateful recipients of no fewer than four bonus pairs — Semenyo, KDH, Rice and Bowen all hitting their respective thresholds. Bonus. Literally. Elsewhere, James somehow emerged with a clean sheet despite Chelsea losing theirs, and a trio of sixes from our captain (doubled to 12), Hill and Boomo meant it was, all things considered, a perfectly respectable week. In the end, only three of our eleven blanked. 52 points was seven above the average and enough for another green arrow. We climb from 2,123,375 to 1,963,779. We’re clearly not winning the league thi...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW27 It’s all a bit meh! Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW27. We got a respectable 65 points this week. This was just above the 58 pt average so we did get a tiny 50k green arrow and now sit at 2,123,375. Great! Captain Gabriel didn’t hit the heights we were hoping for but atleast we didn’t burn our Triple Captain on him. Hill stuck on our bench with 9 points hurts so we will just ignore it. Semenyo and Rice carried the team with 14 points each so we tip our caps at them. Haaland, Bowen and Mbeumo chipped in with 5, 5 and 6 respectively but the rest of our miserable lot for 1s and 2s. Our Gameweek 27 Result We have £0.9 in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of GW27. Let’s go see what was decided…. Our GW27 Transfer(s) We will keep it simple. W...[Read More]

When Thomas Tuchel was appointed as England manager, he arrived with a reputation for being a tactical professor, a man who values efficiency, data, and system-fit over sentimentality. While pundits often debate which big names should start, FPL managers have been running their own version of a meritocracy for years. In the world of Fantasy Premier League, reputation doesn’t earn you points; results do.  As we approach Matchday 33 – a week dominated by the chaos of a massive Double Gameweek – we’ve conducted a thought experiment: What if Tuchel ignored the history books and picked his starting XI based strictly on the highest-scoring English players currently playing in the Premier League?  Of course, this is purely for fun. In reality, Tuchel has his own tactical bluepri...[Read More]
