Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 36
Continuing our downward trend, probably as further punishment for having invested in Liverpool the previous GW… we managed to drop 1741 spots and landed in 4623th place. You sorta know is not going to be your week when you have a 17 point keeper sitting on the bench. We hate to do this, but let’s quickly go over how our team performed or didn’t perform in GW35 before we discuss our transfer plans for the upcoming week.
Damn you Ospina! You just can’t trust a Colombian to deliver…well at least not in this realm of work. If leaving our huge score (Myhill) on the bench wasn’t enough, we had a poor showing from our back line to compound things. Clyne only brought in one point and PvA who came in off the bench for Moreno (boooo) only amassed two points. Our last defender John Terry was able to put up a respectable showing, but far from spectacular. Please let us move on to our wonderful midfield.
*$%#*# is about what we have to say about our double Liverpool mids. Hendo and Sterling have been a big disappointment since they were acquired. In fact we can see the plane flying over our team headquarters asking for the sacking of the two. Cesc hasn’t exactly gave us the kind of returns we hoped for since he re-entered our side. It seems the only one we can consistently count on is Hazard. Although he did scare us a bit there when he missed the penalty.
Leading our line we the had washed up Harry Kane who scored a yellow and nothing else. He was complimented beautifully by Giroud who was ignored by his Arsenal mates, as they looked to keep the play away from both Hull and Olivier in equal respect. In our last spot we had the always dependable Sergio Aguero who has now scored in 4 straight. Now please let us move along to GW36 and our plans, as 35 makes us noxious…

Transfer(s) for GW36 – Sold Clyne and Fabregas. Bought McShane and Sanchez
We could have made 9 different transfer combinations this week in all honesty as that’s how many were proposed initially and probably sums up the dilemma that most managers have this week. The Arsenal / Sunderland DGW ahead confuses matters somewhat for this week as we feel that any transfer not involving a DGW player may be a waste.
The weekly team meeting itself was an odd one as we had one board member cry off due to an imminent birth (welcome to the world Theodore, AKA Ed, Ted or even Teddy P), one cry off with a suspected coronary (seriously), and one just brazenly leave to watch cricket in the rain and get drunk! #Irish 😉
The initial plan was to get Benteke and leave Sanchez until next week but it was thwarted by a small price rise so instead we went straight to Plan B and brought Sanchez in for Fabregas. In order to do so we needed funds and so Clyne was the sacrificial lamb. We opted for a cheap and cheerful McShane at home against Burnley who haven’t scored for years. Knowing our recent luck they surely will but in theory a clean sheet covers our hit and sees us into Monday night happy to welcome Sanchez into our team with a goal or two against Swansea at home.

RMT!
2FT and 0.6 in the bank.
What transfers should I go for?
I’m thinking sterling to 6m mid(maybe 1 sunderland midfielder) and kane to giroud. Should I go for it? Suggestions?
Hi guys.
leading my main league but it’s very close. What transfers should i make? Got 2FT and 0.2 in the bank.
Terry to mcShane, Kane to Benteke?
Hi guys, quick question this week. My defence is Dawson (WBA), Mee and Yoshida. I have van Aanholt and Morgan on the bench. Should I keep it this way or swap in the inform Morgan?
I’m also playing Albrighton over Eriksen. It worked last time, hopefully it will this time as well.
I’d say play morgan. Who are your other mids?
Morning, not sure who is my best team is so:
1) Pantilimon or Mingolet?
2) Vlaar, Koscielny, Terry, Alderweireld or Wasilewski – which 2 to drop?
pantillimon
alderweield plus wasilewski
Morning all,
Team for GW36. Good to go?
could argue over captaincy but apart from that very solid team
Duthers – it will be kun come 11.29
Played my wildcard last night, took out terry to my disappointment but it was the only way to fund to fund Sanchez. Any moves you’d make with the remaining .7 million? Thinking about either a hull defender in fro a one week wonder (thanks to innit) or tekkers in for Giroud, just to take him back in for the next gameweek :hippo:
Hey Duthers. Wundt have Puncheon or Kane and would live without Hazard or Silva to fund someone else
