FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW27 The Blame Game… We could blame Unai Emery, we could blame the weather, we could blame twitter, we could even blame Aubameyang himself. We could blame whoever we like but the reality is that we are always liable to get caught with our pants down occasionally by doing transfers on a Thursday just in order to satisfy DeanLive and Mr Majeika and get a timely and sometimes useful article out there… (now there’s a blame thought!). We jest of course, it’s our choice to do this one early and it suits our schedule to do so, we simply have to hope that such bad luck is occasional rather than the norm, and to be fair we get away with it about 99% of the time so bitching about the 1% is a redundant waste of time.

That was a quote from last week in relation to buying Aguero. Turns out he was in a giving mood!

Kun obviously did his bit, as did Son, elsewhere Jimenez starred ...[Read More]

We don’t set ourselves any goals at the beginning of each season but at the very least we want to beat last season’s final rank. Hang on, is that a goal?! Just like the rest of you we’ve spent five minutes hours agonising over who to include in our GW1 squad and we’re finally there. Are we happy? Ask us that around 6pm on Sunday evening! Below we have outlined some of our thought process when picking our squad. Hopefully it makes sense! Goalkeepers When we posted our very provisional squad a couple of weeks ago we had two £4.5m keepers. This then became a premium and a £4.0m option before reverting to two...[Read More]
