Fantasy Football 247 Site Team News Gameweek BGW29
No Son, no smiles
Welcome to FF247 Site Team BGW29
The double-game week was something of a letdown in more ways than one. As is often the case, however, it was a single-game week player who was to blame for our demise.
In a game week where most of the popular players blanked, two did not. We had one (Palmer 13pts) but sadly we didn’t have the other (Son 17pts). Sigh. Every one of our other single-game week players blanked, with 7 of our 11 picking up 2pts and Batman just the 1.
After Bournemouth’s first game of the double, we were beginning to wonder if bringing in Solanke and Zabarnyi had been an error with just 1pt between both of them following Solanke’s (C) miss and the 2 goals conceded. It didn’t look much better in their second game when Luton raced to a 3-0 lead. Thankfully Bournemouth rallied spectacularly with goals from both our Cherries. 24pts on the night to top up what was looking like a very very bad 28pts.
Sadly it wasn’t enough to save us from a red arrow. Our final score of 52pts was 8pts above the average but that couldn’t stop our fall from 1359 to 2210. Not too bad and we’re not going to dwell on it!
Our Gameweek 28 Result
We have 1 in the bank and £3.1 free transfer to use ahead of GW29. Let’s go see what was decided….
Our GW29 Transfer(s)
With just 3 players we didn’t have a lot of choice. Well we did, but we’ve chosen our Free Hit over the Wildcard.
With that in mind, we have temporarily shipped almost our entire team.
We’ve kept it simple, with our solid overall rank we’ve gone full template and what we’re left with is a team that is very brown, white and orange. I don’t think the team needs much of an explanation, jump on X (formerly the bird app) and you will see this team everywhere. The template is a template for a reason. It’s a good if not overly exciting 11 with a decent-looking bench just in case anyone doesn’t turn up (we’re looking at you Ollie!!).
Son takes the armband because again, that’s the template and sometimes we just like to go with the herd! Baaaaaaa (That’s a sheep in case you hadn’t realised)
To confirm then we have SOLD most of our team and BOUGHT a brown, white, orange one!
Captain – Son

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

Is doing: Palmer/Foden/Solanke->Maddison/Son/Toney for 8ph too much?
I am leading my ML by 4 points, but 2nd only has 7 players this week. (fairly sure he wont use FH)
You look great. I’m envious.
Any ideas for my FH team a page back?
team looks good to go Raz mate
dont understand that reply Raz!!
Hammerfan, just get Son and Toney. -4 is the standard for all of us not on a FH.
fair enough mate.
Who should I sacrifice for Son? Palmer or Foden?
how do they play against each other in gw30? not according to the fixtures
City have tougher fixture in GW 30 but it’s up to you. We’ll all be wildcarding soon, so don’t matter much.
Foden sacrificed.
Agreed, wildcard will be used soon enough.
Good luck and thanks for your help Raz and Ivan
Sorry. I meant your team looks great. And for me those moves are worth it. Many don’t though. Which I also get. My reasoning is that-8 is actually-2. On that note, since I’m on FH I didn’t look at the games of Spurs and Toney after this week. Also, you will probably want to get Palmer back? So that might be an issue?
Message meant for Hammer, 1 reply back.
Fck my English. Mixed them up. REPLY meant for your previous post @hammer.
cheers Raz. Just going to go -4. Be safe as I might struggle getting one of either Palmer or Foden back next week.
Good luck mate
G2g on a fh?
Toney or Son for Captain?
Watkins out for Wissa?
