Fantasy Football Live Match Chat and FF247 Site Team Gameweek 32+ #YNWA
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 32+.
GW32+ Deadline; Saturday 27th June 11:30am GMT
I concur…
We really can’t start anywhere else this week other than simply congratulating our new League Champions Liverpool! What a magnificent season it has been for them and it is truly deserved. None of that Jose / Chelsea nonsense of limping over the line, they did it in style and that was typified by their crushing of Palace on Wednesday night. #YNWA
Which leads us nicely back into GW31+. And quite frankly, Liverpool aside, it was fairly turgid! As has been most of the football so far, apart from a couple of Man City performances and the Arnie wannabe over there at Wolves.
Man Utd, or more accurately Martial, had a day in the sun too. But to sum up last week, if you take out them and Liverpool the other 8 games produced 14 goals between the 16 teams.
Fun fact, apropos nothing (sort of); less than 200,000 people tuned in to Newcastle v Aston Villa live on TV.
Onto GW32+…
It’s probably worth noting that there are FA Cup games this weekend and by some quirk of fate all four ties are filled by PL teams. Normally this would mean a blank weekend of fixtures for Norwich, Man Utd, Sheffield Utd, Arsenal, Leicester, Chelsea, Newcastle and Man City. And of course all of their PL opponents. But that’s not so in our brave new world of trying to see how many players we can injure in the shortest space of time possible. All of the aforementioned will then gallop into GW32+ action at some point prior to Thursday.
It does mean a tepid start to the game-week with just one game each day between Saturday and Tuesday before we finish with a flurry on Wednesday and Thursday.
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) will 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 GW32+
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 GW31+ Result…
On Wednesday evening we were looking a bit ropey with just 62 on the board, even though that still represented a 5k jump in rank. Fortunately we had a Burnley double clean sheet on Thursday and also KDB doing what he does which meant we finished on a respectable, if not spectacular 86 points. This resulted in an overall rise of 28,598 places to 113,358th.
GW32+ TRANSFER
We have SOLD Jamie Vardy and Jack Stephens and have BOUGHT Marcus Rashford and Matt Doherty. These transfers are a bit of a one week punt although it can be said that both players also feel like good long term investments. We say one week punt, because as of now our plan is to attack this GW and play our wildcard the next. So we wanted two players who felt like they could pay immediate dividends and you never know, if they do well enough they could easily stay in our side once we iron out our wildcard side next GW. One of our committee members came out for attacking the GW hard and the group turned excited, but then he suggested that we get Martinez for Leno with one of our two freebies. I tell you, sometimes you can’t make this stuff up. It’s ok though once he recovered from a quick :punish: and a little ridicule he suggested the above and there was unanimous consent on the two moves. Which is really unusual for our lot.
GW32+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW32+ will be RAÚL JIMÉNEZ
We are sticking with Mr Consistent. His pick probably just about sums up the FF247 approach to FPL; he feels safe, the pick itself looks and feels sensible, renegade it isn’t but that’s not what we do. We’ll take his ‘7 point goals’ every week and move along steadily thank you very much.
Our Vice-Captain, should we need him, will be Marcus Rashford.

Question
Something I’ve forgotten. I am rolling the FT this week. If I decide to play the FH next week will I have 2 FT after?
I don’t think so, Ivan. You’ll be back to 1FT.
No, I don’t think so.
No you will go down to 1ft, same as wildcard does
Thanks guys.
It has to be used at some point and I was thinking maybe next week.
All that depends how pool will line up in this round and what Leicester and Chelski are up to.
Evening all, 98 points his GW (best so far this season), so pretty pleased wih je team and don’t fancy using any transfers.
However, should I start Saka (vs NOR) or DCL (vs LEI) (a slight benching dilemma)?
I’m faced with that one as well. I’m going to start DCL and have Saka first off the bench.
I’m going to leave it in the hands of God, Loud Atlas.
I think this is the correct answer.
DCL will be assured to start where Arsenal will have a cup game to navigate before their FPL game. Saka may be rested/rotated.
Those cup games could play utter havoc this GW.
I fear that too Kralin.
My captain and vice won’t be anyone from any of the quarter finals this week.
Ooo yes, I didn’t think of the cup. DCL is probably the better option then.
On the whole, DCL is probably the better player, but Leicester are the tougher opponent. The big guy upstairs better make the right choice!
Saka
It is tempting, B!
Not sure yet if I will push the button, but if I did WC. Would you go for this?
1.
or this 2.?
That looks like DCL/Son versus Rashford/Pulisic, correct?
Rashford & Pulisic here. Very close though.
1 I think.
You can scrounge some more money by risking Robinson as your final defender and just going with Martinez in goal.
2 I think just
1) Chelsea are on a roll!
2) Man Utd are on a roll too!
Err, probably 1 – just!
Option 1 for me SF. I like the Pulisic pick :good:
Thanks all.
Hey everyone, got my captain wrong last week – went for Bruno.
1FT and 3.0m this week. Thinking of rolling?
Mahrez, Martial and Mo on the radar.
Thanks!
Looks fine to roll. Having 2FT next week will be very handy.
Bear in mind Rashford has a cup game before the league game, though captaincy for you would revert to Jiminez so you’ve managed the risk ok.
Cheers Kralin.
I’m not decided on those too. Would be frustrating to watch all GW if Jimenez doesn’t return. Rashford might have a higher ceiling but Brighton have been alright since the return and yes the FA cup game too.
Last GW proved to me how important the capo choice is though…
It’s always important and can make or break a week, or turn a good week into a phenomenal one.
However I always feel grateful when a captain choice returns double figures. Hopefully Jiminez will get at least an assist tomorrow. Wolves have something to play for, as do Villa, admittedly.
These West Midlands derbies can be feisty affairs.
Got pinged a bit for not having Salah last week though. Could happen again.
Sarr to Pulisic?
I don’t know how Sarr is doing, or how Watford as a team is doing, but Chelsea has some momentum now and Pulisic has great form. He is their best chance for securing top 4 position.
Think you have answered your own question B.
Jamie
Just conscious that that rules out the Son to Salah move next week if I wanted
1 FT and 0.2 in the bank. I’m thinking Fernandes to Martial. Too sideways or a good move?
I think we need to see a bit more before deciding that’s the right move. I think I’d save or consider Richarlison to Pulisic
I wouldn’t, given that Man U play before the league game.
You heart could get proper broken.
Not a move I would make, stick with Bruno.
Sideways. I have this option in my team as well and I’m not doing it either.
Too sideways
G2G?
Yes I like it, everything.
I may possibly swap Greenwood and Kiko, or rather play the latter and have Greenwood first off the bench. But he could well play a part and so I see your logic.
Cheers Kralin
