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.

Silvers
Morning all just changed my Cap from Kane to Luk not sure Kane will get full 90 😉
Leprechaun
Makes sense Silvers. I saw a post from Cookie also questioning if Kane would play a full 90 before the cup game.
My Guess is he gets either the first 60mins or the last 30
TheDreamers
He will start – he is a bit of a machine really
Mitro
Cappo?
I’m Going with Lukaku.
TheDreamers
Same
Mitro
Dreamers – you got Kane?
TheDreamers
yes – Lukaku at home been good
Brookyboy
You brought Kane in ?
Mitro
Yes mate, should i be going with Kane
Brookyboy
Cant decide myself but if you are chasing then either him or Aguero i’d say.
Mitro
Still on Lukaku! Think it will be a last minute change to Kane!!
Milburn
Morning lads. I haven’t done anything with my team this week. 0.4 ITB which kind of restricts anything.
Think it’s good to go and I should save the FT for the DGWs next week? Or make a last minute transfer now?
