Fantasy Football Live Match Chat and FF247 Site Team Gameweek 31+
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 31+.
GW31+ Deadline; Tuesday 23rd June 5pm GMT
Close but no cigar!
Well GW30 plus is in the books (cue the fake crowd noise) and onto GW31+ we go.
As always we shall endeavour to post the line-ups prior to each phase of the relevant GW and our usual FPL Countdown Timer (to be found above the latest comments section) is once again be active.
Tips will be dispensed in the chat below but feel free to get involved in said chat, whether that’s asking for advice or answering others.
FF247 SITE TEAM GW31+
This is where LMC takes a slight twist. Given the lack of opportunity to post any full or meaningful articles it is our intention to simply post our weekly transfer and Captain choice on here prior to each deadline. As a result this article will be posted way in advance of when it usually is, probably not long after any given GW ends.
Our GW30+ Result, in brief
Yep, we nearly got there but some combo of Pep, Aguero and Egan defeated our 100 point ambition. We landed on 96. Captain Kun managed just 55 minutes across his DGW, albeit with two assists. Sterling was the only one of our City boys to actually register 90, albeit all in one game. Doherty somewhat rescued us with his 12 in his SGW and clearly we should have captained KdB as he top scored with 15.
As for our rank we have risen about 25k this week, a green arrow is better than a red arrow so we will take it. That makes 4 out of the last 5 GWs that we have risen, so the trend is good, now we just need to get inside 100k and make a late push up the overall. The site team now sits in 141,956th place. Here is the side that almost made us triple digit proud.
GW31+ TRANSFER
We have SOLD and BOUGHT…… nobody
We may be doing this in a slightly unorthodox fashion but one of the reasons we played our Free Hit last week was that we liked our team, as it was, for GW31+. Turns out we liked it that much that we felt we may be somewhat justified to play our BB this week. That was until Leno (or more accurately Maupay?) put paid to that thought. We could have replaced him but in all honesty whoever came in would probably simply end up playing second fiddle to Pope for the remaining games. So we’ve left that thought for now and feel we have a strong XI for this week.
GW31+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW31+ will be Raúl Jimenez
Jimmy got the majority of the votes and it’s easy to see why for anybody who witnessed both his and Bournemouth’s performances in GW30+.
Our Vice-Captain will be Bruno Fernandes. Should Jimmy fail to start we’re confident that Bruno can step into the breach as he’s faces a Sheffield United defence shorn of Henderson, Egan & potentially O’Connell.

The current team, posted wrong one last timeout.
Thoughts ?
Looks great. Strong bench!
Thanks, had some extra so bought AWB, might need some for an bad fixture or Liverpool-City start rotation.
IF Liverpool-City rotation*
Would start Wan Bissaka
Thanks.
Hi all. Thoughts on this WC? got £0.5m itb but tempted to keep it to allow flexibility later on.
Not 100% on Alli over Son but he’s performed well under Jose so far.
Is AWB nailed, or should I just get Maguire in? AWB offers more going forward but is it worth the risk?
Thanks in advance
I’d prefer Son and Wan-B. You’ve certainly got cover for the latter anyway.
Cheers, Init. So would I but the cash doesn’t stretch without a big cut elsewhere!
Quick one: Saiss to a cheap £4mer and Saka to Traore and play 3-5-2, or leave as is?
I would do that. Traore looked sharp.
I’d prefer the latter but as you’ll know he’s been benched in 4 of their last 5. Then again he’ll always come on and apart from most of Man City he looked the best player on display last week. Albeit for 20 minutes or whatever he got.
Cheers both.
Thanks, Init. Hadn’t clocked that. Hmmm
Son and AWB is better imo.
Cheers mate. See above – I agree but not a straight swap I’m afraid given price diff
Looking good. I especially like the Wolves defensive double up. I’m considering something similar.
I’m thinking of getting rid of it to bring in Traore!
Got C on Salah, just seen Palace have kept 4 consecutive CS…
Liverpool ain’t Bournemouth and Co though
Hi folks. WC team is finalised, but I’m wondering whether to swap Ederson out for Patricio / Dubravka for a couple of weeks and then bring him in after LIV. Thoughts?
I would.
Thanks Init. Which GK would you suggest? One of those two, or somebody else?
Sorry, Patricio.
Yeah, that was my preference too. Cheers 😀

Afternoon Chips – I was thinking of Patricio but in doing so I would take a (planned future) move for Traore off the table. Maybe bear that in mind. Returns could be good, however, so it’s a pretty sound pick.
One goalkeeper with very good fixtures until the end of the season is De Gea.
I like the Ritchie pick. Out of position and on penalties, apparently. Good fixtures. I was thinking that if FH in any of the next three GW I would almost certainly get him in – and so I got him in for a three week run.
Hope it all goes well.
Thanks Kralin. I never considered De Gea, but that’s a great shout. I’m slightly nervous about Patricio as it would lock me into 3 Wolves and prohibit the likes of Jota or Traore later on. I’d almost convinced myself on Dubravka instead, but now you’ve but a De Gea sized temptation in the way. Hmmmnnn….
Yes, I think Ritchie could do very well and is hopefully somewhat of a differential (which I need to make headway in my MLs)
