Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 4

Another week and another meh performance. While we did get that coveted green arrow, it wasn’t anything to write home about. We jumped a bit over 230k spots and ended up in a very unrespectable 2,723,655 in the overall. Oh well, could have been worse I guess, yeah it really could have. In the end our four point hit gave us a net positive of 1 point, after we total the points of the players sold as well as the players brought in and we deduct the hit. In the end the moves were not just about one week as the buying of Alexis and in particular Aguero are in our long term plans. Mahrez who facilitated the moves because of his price contributed the best score of our game-week. Because of his price and amazing production, he is a key piece to the team, a bit like Kane was last season.

At this point we can see many a player that we wish we could transfer out, but we want to show restraint and hold that wildcard. It was always our thought to at least make it until the International break, before we contemplated using it. We will continue to monitor the transfer market and see if anymore Pedro type signings occur and that coupled with the shape of our team will guide us in finding the best possible time to activate our WC.

So now onto our transfer plans and team selection for the upcoming GW.

Transfer(s) for GW4 Sold Mane, Bought Yaya Toure

Before we explain the reasoning behind our transfer we should mention that as things currently stand we intend to activate our wildcard after this weekend’s games. Should our team turn in an impressive performance this weekend we will of course reconsider this decision, but given performances to date that is unlikely!

With our wildcard looming we are in a position to take a one week punt on a player. Although given Yaya’s form to date it can hardly be described as a punt! Mane & Southampton have been a disappointment to date so we’ve decided to cut him loose this week. He was on the bench for the Saints on Thursday night and despite the fact that they were in desperate need of a goal he wasn’t thrown into the action. This suggests that his injury is worse than we were led to believe or he’s not in the right frame of mind given the interest in him from United. Thanks for the five points Sadio! Watford haven’t been the shambles at the back that many expected them to be but we just can’t ignore City’s form and therefore we’ve drafted in Yaya to go with Sterling & Aguero…odds on a scoreless draw at The Etihad?!!

Our team in full…

Team Selection

We have decided to start Per Mertesacker this week in the hope that he makes the Arsenal starting XI, although with this highly unlikely we expect Coates to climb off the bench! Reece Oxford wasn’t even considered so he’ll occupy 3rd spot on the bench. The big decision this week was the choice between Milner & Sakho. We went with Milner on the basis that Liverpool are at home, while Sakho only seems interested in attacking his mrs!!
