Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 29
Well that went well….NOT! A total score of 28 points in GW28 may seem to some as irony, but to us at FF247 it has completely summed up our season. Rubbish. We couldn’t even beat an average of 35 and thus dropped 86k places to an overall rank of 906,635. Nothing has gone right and frankly none of us will be sad to wave this season farewell. Or piss off.
GW28 in summary – this summary won’t take long, it’s painful to write and painful to read, unless you like a touch of self harm. The highlight of our score was two assists. Yep, that’s it – two assists. No goals scored, no clean sheets kept. The assisters were Payet and Mahrez. Everything else was clearly a complete disaster. Hennessey in goal conceded two at Sunderland, while our defenders Van Dijk, Bellerin and Morgan also conceded two a piece against opponents that they should easily have kept quiet. Ozil did nothing vs Swansea and Ali didn’t even start at West Ham, but did manage 30mins and a single point for us. Our forward line of Kun, Vardy and Kane scored two points each. We benched Wollscheid who naturally kept a clean sheet and then rubbed it in our faces as he proceeded to collect the three bonus points. Brilliant. Let’s move on to what will undoubtedly be another unmitigated disater!
Transfer decision for GW29 – we have sold Hector Bellerin and bought Vincent Kompany
Home to Villa – now what could go wrong?!! Bellerin has gone for now, due to Arsenal likely blanking next week as well as injuries to Cech and Koscielny which certainly makes the Gooner defence as less attractive prospect than it was. We would also expect Spurs to score in this week’s North London derby and with City facing Villa and then Norwich next week we feel we have a chance of an immediate return on our investment on the City skipper. We’ve chosen not to concentrate on the fact they got hammered at Liverpool in midweek. Decent fixtures, no blank next week and a double game-week on the horizon sealed it.

The team in full

Captain – Sergio Aguero
One of the easier discussions we have had – with Kun home to an awful Villa side, he is by far and away the leading candidate for the armband this week. And even if the unthinkable happens and he blanks we at least won’t lose much ground as the world and his wife and maybe even his dog will be with us.
Our vice-captain is Harry Kane
If Kun doesn’t feature then Kane will step up – he has a decent record vs Arsenal and Spurs will be all out to cause more damage to the Gooner title hopes as well as bolstere their own chances.

Hey guys…am I doomed/screwed with this squad for this gw and the next few gw’s?!!!? Have 2 FT’s and 0.5 miles itb any help is greatly appreciated
Killers, I’d think Cech & Cathcart -> Forster/Butland & Leicester coverage would do you just fine! Also, armband to Kun!
Kilbegs, given the road ahead, that is, GW 30, and given that you have a decent 11 this gw, I’d sell cech and get schmeichel in. He plays newcastle on gw 30 and if you don’t fancy henessey this week or if he doens’t recover in time you still have a good chance of getting points from him at watford.
Cech and Shawcross for Hart and Williams or Fabianski and Huth
Cech to hart? Aguerooooooo as cappo my friend!
Lads would you play walker or cresswell or perhaps bring someone in for cressy or nyom?
I would bring in Williams
I still have my WC and all my chips.
With you only able to use 1 chip at a time… should I maybe risk a triple captain on Aguero?
Wait for DGW
I personally would hold it for DGW but then again Aguero looks likely to score 2-3 goals against Villa; will he be able to do that against 2 other teams in a DGW?
If you want to be different, then perhaps you can go for it 😉
PP – it could pay off mate, I will use mine in one of the DGW’s
Hey lads, do you mind giving some feedback?
Butland
Fonte Fuchs Williams
Mahrez Payet Alli Sanchez
Kane Aguero (C) Vardy
Hennessey, Arnie, Dier, Bellerin
I’ve already brought Williams in with my 1 FT and have 1m left. Should I take a hit to bring Siggy in for Arnie and start him over Alli?
Neo, no you are good to go my friend, team looks good – best of luck.
Cheers Cookie. All the best to you too
Only McCarthy –> Fabianski?
Or -4pts McCarthy ->Fabianski and Payet -> Silva?
Thanks!
Only Fabianski
Would do Hennessey to Fabianski but not take the hit for Silva
Agreed
