Fantasy Football 247 Site Team – Gameweek 2
Fantasy Football 247 Site Team – Gameweek 2 Welcome to Fantasy Football 247 Site Team – Gameweek 2 First hurdle of 38 cleared. No fallers (injuries), and with the steady, experienced, consistent runners of Johnstone, Shaw, Estupinan, Mbeumo and Watkins jockeying for position, the big favourites – Haaland and Saka – have already broken into their thoroughbred stride. The Site Team opened up 2023/24 season with 75 points and we’re most content with that. Solid base to build upon, being as it is, 11 points above the average for the week. Erling Haaland was the obvious captain and those 26 points look neat on paper, but in reality with his ownership, it means you’re running to stand still so looking deeper into the team we must praise Bukayo Saka (10), Bryan...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 2
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 2 Welcome to Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 2 But first, a look at what you could have won – 26 ponts from *checks notes* Erling Haaland won the day last week with Kop taking the spoils – hardly getting a knighthood for that but fair play to him. OddDane was next best with Bukayo Saka bringing home 20 points on Saturday. Rosco ……. well Rosco tried with Rashford. *ruffles hair* the little Geordie scamp…. This week, we have just the two for you – and you’ll soon see why. I have the pleasure to introduce to you the first in a semi-regular “Haaland versus …” series … Take it away OddDane. It´s time to pick a captain again and we´re here to “help” again! Why the quotati...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW2
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW2 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW2. An incredible 47 — over 71% — of you made the perfect start by smashing your ‘first First Goalscorer’ prediction: Haaland, perhaps unsurprisingly, dominated the boards… and came through emphatically in the 4th minute. Of those 47, however, only one (Sarri-ball) nailed that FGS minute! Well done. Regarding the GW1 competition, scores were predictably high, with exactly 50/66 making double-digit starts. Actually, the overall League Table beneath will tell most of the story, so let me quickly say commiserations to Booty01 [what an incredible username] for missing out on an FF247-branded t-shirt by just 2 minutes… Gear‘s guess (of the 12th minute) was very s...[Read More]
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 1
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 1 Welcome to FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 1 And we go again… Saturday afternoons will never be the same without Jeff, but we shall plough on regardless. The selfish b@stard will no doubt be sunning himself in some far flung destination with a cocktail in his hand. If this was North Korea he’d have died in that chair. Maybe they do get some things right, after all.. And so, with potential death threat no.1 of the season out of the way, down to the action… We begin on Friday with Man City going to Burnley at 8pm. Get used to Friday’s as it looks like it is a thing again, at least for the opening month. Saturday begins with Arsenal already chasing, most likely, as they host Forest in the early game. Simon (Thomas) is our new Jeff at 3pm, he...[Read More]
Fantasy Football 247 Site Team News Gameweek 1
Fantasy Football 247 Site Team News Gameweek 1 Our 2022/23 Overall Rank and Recent History Now last season did not go entirely how we would have hoped. There were more postponements, double gameweeks and players with well over 11 million playing the game so we will put our rank down to those issues. Unfortunately we ended up with a rank of 297,085 which is our worst rank in the nine seasons this team has been running. For that reason the big bosses have decided to bring me (MattX) in as they obviously need some help! Or more likely a scapegoat for whenever things go wrong. Initial set up To start things off we did a very basic add on the most obvious players of Haaland, Trent, Saka. Sprinkle in some more Arsenal in the forms of Jesus and Gabriel, toss in the template 6.5s M&Ms (Mitoma...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 1
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 1 Welcome to Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 1 With 45 attacking returns (36 goals, 9 assists) in the 22/23 season, it’s hard to imagine betting against the Norwegian meat shield (that’s Earlng Haaland to the uninitiated!) in any given game week. However, a closer look at his numbers and you’ll see that 30 of those 45 returns came at the Etihad so if you’re going to go against the masses at any point this season then I’d recommend that you limit those dalliances to the weeks that City are playing away. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not recommending that this is something you should do on a regular basis, and indeed there is every chance that in doing so you end up worse off, but on occasion, you ‘might’ end up better off looking elsewhere. With tha...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 1 – Midfielders
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 1 – Midfielders Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 1 – Midfielders I am a numbers man, always have been and always will be. The numbers that shout out loudly to me and should be shouting loudly out to you are 3-5-2. This is not just me saying this! This is the formation that you should be using this season according to the “Fantasy Experts”. Here more about that here: https://www.premierleague.com/news/3586721 With almost half of your starting eleven potentially being midfielders, if you get these five right, then you are probably off and running on a nice start to the season, a decent overall ranking, green arrows aplenty and surely a saved transfer or two along the way. If you get these five midfielders wrong, the overall ranking plummets...[Read More]
