Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 32
Well we sure know how to kill momentum in a hurry. A slow methodical climb back inside the top 2k was followed by a swift kick in the gut and a drop back outside of it. We now reside in 2810th place after a drop of 1070 spots and are looking shakier than Pelligrini’s job. Fortunately we are highly qualified in the art of denial so we feel our job is safe. Now let’s give a quick rundown of how our team fell apart worse than City’s title hopes.
In Pulis we trust! Right until he allowed known wimpy road pushovers stick 4 in the back of the net. Splendid that Myhill transfer has turned out to be so far. Luckily though, we had Terry and surely a Stamford Bridge clean sheet was on the cards. We mean, the only chance Stoke had of scoring was if the goalkeeper was caught way out of position and a Stoke player shot it from 65 yards or something…Thanks a lot Thibaut! In other defensive business, we had Clyne and the Saints take on Everton. One quick glance at the Everton front line and a barrel of laughs later, surely we would get an easy clean sheet out of this? Never mind! Moving along to our last defender PvA, Thank You! Good to see someone showed up.
In our talented midfield, mostly because we have no English born players, it was a disappointing display. Only one who bothered to produce was the one and only Eden Hazard. 13 points for our Belgium standout. Hazard has now produced 17 bonus points out of a possible 24 in his last 8 games. We do love Eden, oh yes we do. Ok, we are waffling on about him, but frankly the other 3 are barely worth mentioning. Silva, Cazorla and Eriksen managed 8 points between them and some of these fellas are screaming to be transferred out. Don’t tempt us, because we are certainly looking for someone to blame besides ourselves.
Up front we played our dynamic duo and some guy named Austin. It was a long heated debate about who to captain. There were chairs tossed and things said that can’t be repeated on here. Who to go for Kane or Kun? It got ugly, but in the end we ended with English super hero Harry Kane. As we watched the nightmare 2 pointer from Kane come in, the Aguero contingent stormed out of the room and was overheard saying, “We should have went with the Argentinian”. As we watched the nightmare 2 pointer come in from Kun, the Kane contingent stormed out the room and remarked “We should have captained who?” in a mocking fashion. Then one brave soul in the back of the room, oddly enough known as the Chicken responded “We should have went for Austin” That was the last time anyone has seen or heard from that chicken. Ok then now let us get to our decision on the upcoming week before someone incriminates themselves.
Transfer(s) for GW32 –
We thought long and hard (ish) about whether we needed to make a transfer or not. We contemplated selling Austin for a cheap short-term replacement but after some deliberation we have decided to give the Rangers hero a stay of execution – mainly out of sympathy that we didn’t captain him last week. And to appease the chicken. So we can confirm we have held our transfer and will have two for next week.
Our team in full…
We had one tough decision to make this week and that was whether to play Puncheon away to Sunderland or Austin home to Chelsea. Aagin, the debate was lively and violent and came down to a casting vote from the chicken. So yes, you’ve guessed it, Austin plays! He loves Austin. Sorry Jason, please don’t hurt us too much. We’re obviously hoping that double Saints defence at home to Hull stabilises our defence somewhat while we’re not sure who will win the Terry vs Austin battle, but at least we have most bases covered!
Captain
Our captain this week is Harry Kane
There were some call for Hazard to be given the armband and frankly they were strong claims having watched QPR defend at Villa. However, we decided to go with Kane again – surely he is due after last week’s blank at Burnley. Villa’s defending was almost as bad as QPR’s so we’re expecting goals at the Lane at the weekend and we all know that if Spurs score, then K….noooo let’s not jinx it!
Our vice-captain is Eden Hazard
The team in text format is –
Myhill
Terry, Clyne, Alderweireld
Silva, Hazard (v), Eriksen, Cazorla
Kane (c), Aguero, Austin
Subs: Ospina. Puncheon, van Aanholt, Baird.

Thanks for reading Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 32.
And don’t forget to vote in our Captains Poll for GW32 [polldaddy poll=8519164]
Hi guys,
Anything you’d do with this lot?
I have 1ft and 1.4m itb
I still have my WC which I’m planning to use after gw33
Hello Photek,
I’d take 2ft’s to gw33 mate.
Hey photek. All looks set to me.
I saw your lineup and thought “ah, this looks familiar, he must’ve had a tough DGW31 too” and indeed you did. It just wasn’t a good week for the ‘KAG’ striker teams was it? Hopefully this weekend will be much better for us.
cheers guys, I was thinking to leave it as it is.
yeah James, it was a poor week for our strikers and in general, I really didn’t think that dbl was worth chasing…oh well.. onwards and upwards
Afternoon all. Thanks for the articles this week guys! Really helpfull as I have 15 mins to catch up! FF247 team looking good! Interesting news from Cookie about Costa! Or is that just JM arsing us around again!
Good afternoon all, how long lasts the ban of Skrtel? Is he allowed to play in the DGW? Don´t know because of the Cup games.
Magpies, Skrtel will miss the Newcastle game this gw and that should be it then mate
Afternoon everyone!
Nice looking team guys.
Good afternoon all! Austin screwed me last week, well you know what I mean. Not giving him the armband sent me down two spots in my ML. WHAT TO DO NOW? Double Chelsea coverage at the back surely hasn’t helped matters. Is it wise to leave Terry on the bench?
Any thoughts on this lot? I might just leave it as is and take a big gamble on Henderson having a big game. :s Slowly crumbling … Sigh.
Your squad is too strong!
Ugh if only James! Hopefully I have it in me to keep faith in my squad. Ahhhh! 😉
Would really appreciate any suggestions on what to do with my 2FT this week. I want to save one so i have 2 for next week as well and then use the WC before the DGW.
As of now my squad is:
pantillimon, hamer
bertrand, moreno, wasilewski, rose, hutton
sanchez, hazard, eriksen, silva, boyd
aguero, kane, austin
2FT, 0.1itb
i need a GK and a third defender for the BGW to field a playing XI, and then remove either sanchez/austin, i was thinking sanchez -> mata?
thanks in advance!
I would do Hamer to Myhill to get a keeper for gw33
And then Austin to Murray and Hutton to Toby
