Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 35
Lovely DGW! You know sometimes there comes a time to quit a cult, which is just another way of saying that we wish we hadn’t been caught idolizing a Liver bird. Never trust Liverpool, never trust Liverpool, never… you get the drift, this was our Gerrard slip. Lucky to stay inside the top 3K, we dropped to 2882nd place. Now here comes the sign from a higher power that we should not trust the Scousers. We dropped 666 :satansmoking: places! We read the sign loud and clear, sell everything wearing red, Sterling, Moreno, Henderson and Kop. But before we sell everything, let us run a quick review of the GW pain we went through.
As expected (somewhat) Ospina delivered a clean sheet for us. You might find it surprising to hear us say that, but CFC haven’t exactly been going for broke lately. So it wasn’t shocking to see the Colombian come up big and by big we mean almost knocking Oscar back to Brazil. Those Colombians are beautiful people. Our back line was fantastic! Well if you only count big John Terry and ignore the other two. With a goal and a CS he certainly did the business in the double. Might even send him a couple of lonely housewives as a reward. Speaking of DGW defenders, what about Moreno you ask? We need a hug :noshake: How dare you bring that up?! Simply said, sometimes we sack up and take a chance and they get chopped off. Oh well, our last defender Clyne did manage to play, but proved almost as useful as Moreno. PvA came in for the Spanish ghost and garnered us 2 points. Please let us now move to our midfield where I am sure our Double LFC and CFC put on a show.
Our Liverpool duo put on an “amazing” display. Hendo & Sterling combined for 10 points over the 2 games. Frankly we should have known better. Maybe if we had a Liverpool fan helping us decide on what transfers to make we would have not committed this folly 😉 The Scousers scored 0 goals in two games vs West Brom and Hull. We would say that is laughable if it wasn’t so painful. Our other 2 mids didn’t exactly show the Liverpool boys up. Our captain Eden Hazard managed to blank over 2 games and only grabbed 5 points, doubled up to 10. Fabregas, if not for a late assist against the Foxes, would have scored even less than his 3 midfield mates. We will now begrudgingly move onto our forwards, who at least have the excuse of having only played one game.
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie… missed a penalty and got a yellow. Thanks for that buddy. Well at least our other strikers did something positive. Young player of the year Harry Kane got us 5 points and was carried off the field by the English press. Argentinian Sergio Aguero scored at the Etihad and we saw all 3 fans applaud. And please City fans don’t write in to complain, assuming that empty blue chair can read and write.
Transfer(s) for GW35 – Sold everyone with Liverpool under their name
We jest of course. We wanted to, out of pure frustration, but they have a stay of execution. Namely QPR at home. The actual transfer was –
Sold Austin, bought Giroud
This was always the planned transfer and a sensible one we feel with DGW37 looming and of course he has Hull this week and he’s hot. (In form, hot). Let’s just hope he makes a better fist of it than our last lot did!
Our team in full…
Captain
Our captain this week is Eden Hazard
We had votes for Aguero and it could have gone either way really as he’s at Spurs and they can’t defend but the majority came down on Hazard to shine, on what should be ‘title day’ for Chelsea.
Our vice-captain is Sergio Aguero
The team in text format is –
Ospina
Terry Clyne Moreno (boooo)
Henderson (boo) Hazard (c) Sterling (boo) Fabregas
Giroud (beautiful) Kane Aguero
Subs: Myhill, Puncheon van Aanholt Baird
Thanks for reading Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 35.
Hello all. Draft league question.
I want to switch out Nugent and my choices are: Falcao, Wickham, Oliveira, Drogba.
Which move would you suggest? My present team is below.
Ospina
Jagielka Bellerin Lovren Alderwiereld
Fabregas Sigurdsson Cazorla Fellaini
Rooney Pelle
Bench: Begovich Nugent Schlupp Puncheon

Hi bob, given how a draft league works you may as well go and grab Wickham now with an eye on 37 as someone else will only do so soon enough.
I thought of that, but the matchups aren’t great. Who do you think is the best player of the ones I’ve listed as available?
Oliviera is the only of the 3 with guaranteed minutes.
Hi all! Nice looking team there guys- good shooting to you this week!
Quick question: hold the FT or get an Arsenal player in? 4.9m in the bank. It would be Kane > Giroud or perhaps Hendo > Ramsey/Oezil. They should score well against Hull, but I’m not positive…
Any suggestions? 0.8 in the bank and 1 ft? Any advice will be good! Cheers boys!
Cameron to Bellerin and play JWP over Boyd
Made my transfer but who do I bench out of this lot? Tough to choose between Moreno or Coleman, although Delph can probably safely sit this one out.
Ospina
Ivanovic, Bertrand, Moreno
Sterling, Ramsey, Hazard, Fabregas
Austin, Giroud, Kane
Heaton, Coleman, Delph, Rose
I’d play Coleman I think. Better player for me. And arguably his team is in much better form
You may be right. Not worth benching Kane or Austin for the 4th defender either. I need to do a couple of switches after this week…
Great team FF247. Hopefully luckier this GW.
I have made a gamble this week. To get Giroud up front I got Ki in for Eriksen for a hit. Will Ki start? His 19mins last GW does not look very promising.
Who knows, but i like the gamble. With a bot of luck it can payoff
He was a regular starter then why did he just play 19mins….that’s what’s haunting me.
Any ideas why did Ki play 56 and 19mins the previous 2 weeks?
