Fantasy Football 247 Site Team Gameweek 27 No no no no no no no no BOTMAN! Welcome to FF247 Site Team Gameweek 27 Not much went wrong (or has gone wrong lately) this past week but Sven of the Toon didn’t half let the side down with his MINUS 2 in the Geordies defeat at Arsenal this past week. In fact that score completely cancelled out the hard-earned 1 points each from Pervis Estupinan and Julian Alvarez – tongue firmly in cheek of course! Botman in fact cancelled out Saliba next to him …. Enough of what went wrong, let’s have a look at what went right. Haaland (C) with 10 points and Ollie Watkins with 9 certainly played their part but tis in the midfield where we came alive. Bukayo Saka (10) and Phil Foden (11) were awesome enough but we arrived at the Monday Nigh...[Read More]

Fantasy Football 247 Site Team News Gameweek 26 Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW26 Last week we decided to roll one transfer but use the other. That move was one Liverpool player for another. We said goodbye to Trent and brought in VVD and the big Dutchman gave a real captain’s performance getting two 90 minute appearances and a bullet headed goal for a solid return of 10 points!. We, like everyone else in the game, tripled captained the big blonde Norwegian and while it wasn’t an absolute monster score Haaland did get a goal and 2 bonus points for a TC total of 30 points. We got some good returns from Saka (15 pts for the second week in a row), Saliba (6 pts), Alvarez (7 pts) and Darwin and Foden (both 5pts). This gave us a final score of 88 pts, 15pts above the 73pt average. You...[Read More]

Fantasy Football 247 Site Team News Double Gameweek 25 Welcome to FF247 Site Team DGW25 Our Solanke to Darwin move paid off to the tune of 2pts (Darwin’s 6pts vs Solanke’s 4pts) and whilst Jota (C) looks decent with 14pts, it was the wrong choice as the robot returned with a brace and 26pts for the majority who wisely handed him the armband. Ouch. However, the halftime substitution of Alexander-Arnold was more painful. 4pts was a glimpse of what could have been, and now sadly, he’s out of the double gameweek. We can’t complain too much though, because whilst we had 4 players returning 3 or fewer points, we also had Saka (15pts), Saliba (12pts) and Palmer (10pts). We finished the Game week with 85pts, 23pts over the 62pt average. Our rollercoaster journey of recent w...[Read More]

Fantasy Football 247 Site Team News Gameweek 24 We’re the wallies who sold Ollie Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW24 Could have been better could have been worse. That’s probably the best thing we can say about GW23, and that’s being kind! We went into Monday’s game on 24pts and things were looking grim. It’s good to be somewhat introspective mid-game week but the advice I need to follow myself is to not get too hung up on something that is not yet over. That was the case for us with the 32pts we picked up from our Man City assets (thanks Phil!) making what was still a bad game week (in terms of overall points and a dreaded arrow), that little less painful. We only have ourselves to blame. I say that, but 3/6 members of the site team did vote against selling Watkins, however, it’s a demo...[Read More]
