Fantasy Football 247 Site Team Gameweek 33
Welcome to Fantasy Football 247 Site Team Gameweek 33. For fup sake. 55 fupping points. Ok, that’s the obscenities out of the way but c’mon, 55 points? I haven’t checked but I doubt we have been below the average on many occasions this season but we were in GW32. It may have been by just 1pt but we were still below it. We should’ve known what was in store at lunchtime on Saturday as Kyle Walker was rested and captain Eriksen picked up a solitary assist despite Spurs putting four past Watford. Our keeper and three defenders weighed in with a massive 6pts and with Antonio Valencia needing yet another rest we played the gameweek with just 10 players. 10pts from Eden Hazard were very much appreciated as were the nine from Josh King who climbed from our bench to replace Eyeore. Romelu Lukaku chipped in with two goals but the less said about Alexis Sanchez & Arsenal on Monday night the better. Naturally we ended the gameweek with a sizeable red arrow and we now sit 52,078. Some tough decisions need to be made…
Our transfers this week are: selling Alexis Sanchez and Fernando Llorente and buying Wilfried Zaha and Harry Kane.
Tough decisions were taken indeed and they come no tougher than selling Llorente. Only joking! They come no tougher of course than selling Alexis, who has been so good for us this season and is the highest points scorer in FPL. However, we are at that time of the season where big and possibly stupid decisions are made. And we have made it! No goals or assists in his last three matches was enough to attract the axe with not even two double game-weeks to follow enough to save him. Selling Alexis means of course we can buy Kane and also young Wilfried of South London – Zaha is in great form and despite a tough set of fixtures on the horizon, his form and double-game-week next week justified his inclusion while Kane of course needs little explanation or reasoning. Getting rid of Llorente is just a bonus.
The Team in full this week…
Our captain is: Romelu Lukaku
Despite his 13pt haul last week, Big Rom only just won the vote with Kane running him close. With the votes at 2-2 the deciding vote went to the Everton striker from a source who was against selling Alexis, so it was probably personal against Kane. From such reasoning, leagues are won and lost. C’mon Rom! Kane is vice-captain if required.

Does anyone have news on the Leicester presser, in particular is Vardy ok to play today
Complete guess but I can see them playing their reserves
+1
Morning gents, I can’t choose between Kane or lukaku for captin this week also do you think all out attack would be a good option I would appreciate your thoughts.
No1,
AOA could work great if young Davies continues his decent form
I don’t see many clean sheets in my defence this week.
No1,
Mawson is a serious goal threat. I wouldn’t rule out cs for Spurs and Chelsea but could go either way.
No1, something else to consider is it’s not guaranteed that Walker will start this week after Trippier’s performance last week. I would guess it’s 70/30 Walker but it’s hard to say.
Morning all!!
I need your help!!
Sanchez and llorente out for king/sterling and Kane (c) – Sanchez would be back in my team when I WC in GW36.
Mitro,
You’re the Arsenal fan, you should be telling us about Alexis!
We are poo mate!!
Mitro I took alexis out a while ago just doesn’t look interested at the moment.
Do it then
Cheers – should I bench wally?
Him or Sterling
Cookie – king or sterling as Sanchez replacement?
Mitro, Sterling has the DGW, plays in a better team, but is prone to rotation.
King has no DGW but still has decent fixtures and is on penalties.
If you plan to keep King for the season get him, if he goes out on your WC, you may as well get Sterling.
FFS! Just realised Kane went up last night only have 7.5 – king it is!!
You think Kane plays 90mins after his injury and in front of the Cup semi?
Or Kun to Kane?
Mitro – you still agonizing
?
Yes mate! My rival has done a -4 and I think Kane was one of the transfers
Never known you agonize so much over taking a hit !!
Hi all, having a busy week studying for my exams and so would appreciate all help. I made 2 transfers and plan to play AOA.
Do you think cappo Kane is risky given that everyone will go for LKK this week? I’m chasing massively. Cheers for all input in advance
Hey Neo – if your chasing massively, then I think you cant go for Lukaku captain. I think Sanchez might be the one I’d go then though. Surely there is a reaction to the Palace defeat.
I’d have Stones over Gibson on the bench
Great team neo
Both are very good options, Lukaku is averaging around 11 points at home
If you’re chasing and you think everyone else will captain Lukaku it might be the right time to start captaining differentials. Both have as good of a chance as the other IMO.
If your chasing go Kane !!
For the first time in weeks, I’m actually happy enough with my team (no doubt I just jinxed myself)
Question: Would you play Pieters over either Valencia or Alonso? If so who and why?
I prefer the defenders from the better teams I think Dreamers. I have Valencia and Alonso and I’m using both. Could be another low scoring one between the pair.
That’s without considering the attacking potential of each.
thats what I have atm TGP. Thanks
How you set?
Below mate…
Thanks for asking.
Best of luck everyone!
Am I good to go?
Heaton Vs Jaku
Robertson vs Valencia?
Heaton and Valencia for me beno.
