Fantasy Football 247 Site Team News Gameweek 19
UPDATED 21:30pm Christmas Day 
Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW19. We have finally got a red arrow unfortunately. For what is a rarity this season but our 42 points, while above the average of 36 points was not enough to get us a green arrow. We have dropped from 1,992 to 3,456 (we love order). This is still an amazing rank and we will keep pushing for that number 1 spot!
Our Gameweek 18 Result
We have £7.1 in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of GW19. Let’s go see what was decided… nothing. We decided to do nothing and just roll. Or did we…
Our GW19 Transfer(s)
Our initial thinking here was to simply do a Fonzie and walk away with the 2 FT’s. That was until the sharper ones amongst us (essentially just the sober ones on Christmas Day!) realised that having 2 FT’s, along with a use it or lose it Wildcard was a bit overkill / daft!
As such we may as well do a Hail Mary. Son was considered but all of our other mids look ok for this one. Trent, with Burnley away, and him on form, seemed to be the other obvious one. Along with having cash to burn, and a WC to fix any budget balancing issues by Saturday.
Konsa away at Man United looks like our only real weak link, potentially. But we decided to keep him anyway, albeit on the bench, as we would most likely want some Villa coverage on the WC, plus he’s gone up 0.1m this week. Always thinking… Branthwaite was decided on as the fall guy instead.
To confirm then we have SOLD Branthwaite and BOUGHT Trent
Captain – Salah

PREDICTED LINE-UPS
Back by popular demand! Well, sort of… Drafthound have changed their line-up approach this season and what it means for us is that we are no longer able to display a live feed of it on here due to some technical difficulties. That said, what they have done looks great and is still only a click away so if you want to access those they are HERE

I would say you’re absolutely g2g. Roll the transfer with AFCON and Asian Cup on the horizon
Yeah, it’s annoying having to lose a transfer though.
I got Haaland in, in case he plays – and I want him back anyway.

Thanks both, yeh feels like you’re losing a transfer but would be making one for the sake of it really.
Happy Boxing Day all. Would love some second opinions here!
I’m thinking of starting Haaland over JWP. Seems sensible /worth a punt?
Re Captaincy:
I’m seriously tempted to captain Solanke… just seems a bit risky but could be a great differential. However, Son seems like the safer bet to me – he’s playing against a team that concedes for fun atm. Plus, I have a suspicion that Burnley will just park the bus and we’ll see an underwhelming Liverpool performance
Let me know if I’m going mad or if I’m missing anything!

Sorry Cheach. Missed your message. Son is a good shout for this week’s cappo. Have played Haaland myself. Fingers crossed. ATB
