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 Mbeumo (7), Pervis Estupinan (7), Sam Johnstone (6) and Luke Shaw & Ollie Watkins (5 each).
The United double-midfield was disappointing but no panic yet and Odegaard will be just fine.
Our Gameweek 1 Result
Transfers & Team Selection
We have 1 Free Transfer and 0.0mln in the bank.
There are no plans to make any moves this week ahead of the Friday evening deadline. We stand by to react to anything we hear before that time but as it stands, we will remain unchanged.
Captain
It remains Erling Haaland. And will do until further notice probably. Saka is on standby incase needed.
Our Gameweek 2 Team
We look ahead with anticipation to Gameweek 3 with two transfers in our pocket.

If James is confirmed out, should I use my free transfer to bring in Saliba? Already have Gabriel and Estu. Else I only have Baldock / Beyer on bench this week.
I think you are struggling if the rumours of the Baldock injury come to anything.
Saliba would come in and Gabriel later to go later out as a plan? I wouldn’t tie up two Arsenal spots in defence.
Baldock could be out?
Double up on Arsenal defence would be in any case max 2 gws as i do have interest in some other cheaper options…
You”ll scrape by OK this week with the James move.
Thanks GP
Any money ITB? Baldock/Beyer could become Henry.
unfortunately no money itb
What’s the news on Stones, folks? Might have to do a transfer as my bench is none too strong
Still not confirmed officially but a few reports suggest he is injured again….

Not that I have too much to consider in terms of my bench this week but all set otherwise?
Definitely.
Thanks GP! I think I’m playing you in the H2H next week so will have to watch out for any controversial feedback you give me!
Yezzir.
I am captaining Salah myself however.
Got to captain Salah Igy.
Jamie
Looks very similar to mine with difference of Mbeumo and Mitoma. Lmao. And our goalies. 😉
Done Trossard to Martinelli to avoid price drop, next week plan is Gvardiol/Pedro to Gusto/Jackson!
1 – Do I go Turner over Onana?
2 – Captain Saka over Haaland?
1. Spurs looked very attaching in they opener so a CS for Onana is unlikely. Loads of saves and at some point an assist will be his point returns.
Turner as an good chance of the CS. But Sheffield aren’t going to be rolled over the whole season and will score here and there
Haaland and I’m going Onana. However my second goalie has Chelsea.
Anyway, anything is possible.
Hey guys. Had a good week? Salah cappo or Haaland cappo? I think Haaland played a full game with extra time and a penalty shoot out this week? Doesn’t make sense to let him play the full game? Or you reckon Pep won’t take any risks for Newcastle?
Also with Kepa away Sanchez is pretty much sealed right? Onana to him? 4,5m goalie. Again 0.5m I can spend elsewhere. I already have Chiwell mind you. But Chelsea’s fixtures do look promising. I’ll monitor them this weekend. I think some people said Chelsea looked sloppy last game, that was versus Spurs though… Hoping and thinking the manager can setup something better.
HI Raz,
It was Liverpool and they can make anyone look sloppy – but they will be OK with the fixtures ahead you would think. I wouldn’t take Onana out though if you have him. You could go for Gusto, Colwill etc.
I think Haaland will start for sure. But it’s Salah and in theory, he should have a higher ceiling considering each opposition.
Howdy Raz,
I am captaining Salah this GW.
Tnx guys. I will keep it as it stands.
*** REMINDER (RAZ!) – EARLY DEADLINE ***

Don’t miss it!
Second time on time.. I should get a reward for each time. I’ll give myself a pat on the back. 😉
