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.

FPL FIXTURE TRACKER
FIXTURE TRACKER LINK
FPL is more fun with the games coming thick and fast – they should do it permanently and get a whole season done in 5 months rather than dragging it out.
I suspect many players would be stretchered off as a result but maybe that would add to the gladiatorial nature and the sport would change to reflect that.
Not a huge fan of these 5pm weekday deadlines.
Exactly Kralin, all part of the fun of it. Survival of the fittest and with less of the bullshit in the middle you’d get to embrace the 5pm deadlines.
Could have middle of the night matches also, deadline 1.30am, it would be great. You’d wake up a nervous wreck wondering if your 4.1mln Bournemouth defender kept a cs.
It’s like the Xmas games on steroids.
We would never sleep, Cookie, the site could run a quiet sideline in Benzedrine.
We’d all start laughing crazily as the 4.1 defender lost his CS to a lapse of consciousness in the 89th minute then realise we all had to go to work in 10 minutes (with another deadline looming).
You see Kralin you’re buying into it already.
Init has become the site dealer, Mito the supplier, of course.
We could have the Benzedrine Chip which quadruples any points earned in any 30minute period between 2-5am but you have to be awake to activate it.
So much more fun….
Ah, Benzedrine Chip. One of my many aliases! 😀
***FF247 RECOMMENDS***
The drug of champions…

***I’ll go check my legal emails again…
Look at those beauties.
Just glad someone responded or it may have looked genuine! But what the heck, we openly support gambling and casino sites, so why not drugs too.
Next week: prostitution :rofl:
The mention of prostitution can mean only one emoji…
:hippo:
And the endorsement is already written, apparently! What a marketing team we have :laugh2:
Many a fine novel has been written on the stuff so I’m sure it’ll help many assemble a fine fantasy XV.
I found it telling that Cookie had relegated Bournemouth to the 2.30 a.m kick off.
Guys I’m thinking of using my wc to get this team after this gw, any thoughts?
Not logical, Jim, unless the Benzedrine is already kicking in and somehow enabling four players from the same side.
Not bad but could try a little harder.
Oh yeah, :big-lol:
Dendonker may have to go so, other than that?
You could lose Patricio instead, to someone like Pope to double up on Burnley, or Martinez to free up even more cash, since Leno is out for a while. Then the other keeper to a cheap chump for even more cash. Said cash could be used to upgrade Dendoncker to Moutinho/Traore for better quality from bench while keeping Wolves coverage.
Or you could upgrade in defence, maybe Holgate, to get 3 solid starters.
Four Wolves. You obviously have a cheat code!
I think Son and Kane is a bit too much from Spurs. Might want to keep one.
Also, three from United is again a bit too much. 2 is fine.
Both United and Spurs are not giving us free flowing goals. Not worth having so many players from both these teams.
Richarlison/Vardy could be nice options perhaps.
Yeah I agree I think Son and Kane is probably overkill they were playing West Ham. Will be interesting to see United as their players are cheaper so are better value. Though not sure about Vardy he seems a little isolated up top
Thanks for the feedback guys.
Who the feck is this lad and how does he know my full name.
Thanks Kralin for bringing this to my notice.
I have to admit I’m already regretting my TAA captain pick. Just got to hope for the best
The last seven words apply to every captain pick Smash.
Yeah true. Fernandez and Jimenez seem popular. I have no idea on next week either that looks tough
You never know. TAA could be gold.
I took Fernandes. He should be on the shortlist too next week. All depends on what happens tonight etc.
Jimenez too for next week is away at Villa. Local derby but on balance of recent play, Wolves should take care of them.
Yeah I was put off by Fernandez because I had Martial as well but we shall see tonight. Wolves looked very good the last game. TAA is probably due tbf but we shall see.
Burnley
Dam it. Though Lowton should be ahead in terms of fitness and hopefully is first choice
