Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 22
Wow. It’s tough at the top! Despite registering a respectable 69 (-4) and outscoring the average by 13 points we still managed to slip back 332 places overall to find ourselves in 1,976th. We blame Hazard. And Sanchez. Although we owned both. More on those two scampsters later. We very nearly wildcarded last week and it was a close call but instead chose to wait and took a small gamble on a hit to get Kane and Hazard. Kane delivered for us but it was Hazard that hurt most which is quite ironic as the reason we took the hit was in fear of Hazard hurting us massively if we didn’t have him and he went off on one. As he can do. So despite having some decent scorers in our midst this week it does go to show what a difference nailing your captain can do. We went for Hazard as he’s been on fire and he was at home with a decent fixture but he managed to pull in just the 3 points, doubled up to 6. Here’s how the rest fared and what we have decided to do ahead of GW22 to try and haul ourselves back up that leaderboard…
Our defence really hurt us this week, pulling in just 9 points between the sorry lot of them, while our current kryptonite nemesis Mr Baines sat on our bench with a smug little assist waving at us, just out of reach. Prior to Christmas doubling up on City in defence looked a good idea but it’s certainly something we will be addressing with our WC. Hutton and Taylor were more ‘ones we sort of had to do with’ this week and in all honesty we feared the worst. And got it.
7 of our front 8 actually delivered attacking returns this week. As luck would have it the only one who didn’t – we captained! Sanchez delivered massively of course and we just had to count our chicken’s that we had him and Downing and Silva proved their consistency with an assist and 2 bonus each. Up top we were delighted that new signing Kane grabbed a goal as did both of the old guard Costa and Austin.
So all in all hardly a disaster and the good news is that despite slipping a few ranking places overall we remain No1 in our adopted ‘home country’ of Bonaire, Saint Eustatius and Saba!
Transfer for GW22
Our team itself wasn’t in bad shape this week and so we felt once again that we could hold the wildcard with a view to playing it in the two week break ahead of GW23. In light of this we decided to make just the one alteration this week and having lost Toby Alderweireld to injury and Alan Hutton being the only alternative up against Liverpool we fancied West Ham to keep a clean sheet against a striker-less Hull. We wouldn’t ordinarily bring in a West Ham defender at this point as their fixtures after this week are pretty challenging but given as we will likely wildcard anyway this felt like a nice one-off.
So to confirm our transfers we have –
Sold Toby Alderweiereld and Bought James Tomkins
Our team in full…

Well done guys. Sensible transfer there it would appear.
Strangely, a Sanchez quiet one would do you this week with your double City at the back.
It’s a funny old game
Yeah, sound transfer and underlying thinking FF247. Though maybe drop Zab for Hutton? OK, so this season Arsenal have blanked away to the other top 3 teams, but those other teams have very sound defences. Man C have conceded 2 in each of their last 2 matches, which were against 2 of the weakest teams. Oh, and Arsenal have scored in every other match they’ve played. And they were looking very slick against Stoke. Hutton is the sort of player who might nick a goal against Pool and/or keep a CS…
hi guys

do i trsfr azpi out? for terry or clyne or anyone else?
Or do i keep him on the bench as he’s back in 10-14days?
I wanted to make silva>dimaria or mata for a -4?is it worth?
I would do Azpi for Terry and hold the Silva transfer to next week
nauj
Both good choices but Terry if you can afford him. Wouldn’t take a hit for anything else.
Nice team lads. Good luck this GW. Hopefully a nice green arrow this time to get the team back in that top 1k. Great season so far :thumbup:
Hi all at the table of the FF247 team.
I did it at last.
I beat your last weeks points total with 72 points.
I have a feeling that the City v Gunners match will hurt many of us this week.

Evening all
Think I’m ready to go with this WC team. Got 0.2 itb to up Gardos to alderwierld when he’s back from injury.
Thoughts anyone
hammers
Looks good to me. Will you keep Downing beyond this week when WHU’s fixtures turn for the worse?
Top effort mate.
Yeah think I will keep him as long as he keeps ticking over with the odd assist now and again bought him at 5.8 so he’s pretty good value for me. If I need to change him I will probably downgrade terry to get some funds
Maybe boyd to ward-prouse now that he is back?
