Fantasy Football Live Match Chat and FF247 Site Team Gameweek 33+
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 33+.
GW33+ Deadline; Saturday 4th July 11:30am GMT
Fickle, much?
And on we go again! We hope you enjoyed your one day break from football. Or at least your spouse / better / worse half did. But fear not if you were having withdrawal symptoms as this weekend will certainly make up for it. Technically speaking you can watch football on Saturday from about noon until 10pm (and then stick MOTD on), and then again on Sunday it’s likewise but sadly only up until 9pm, (MOTD 2 will probably follow).
There’s then just the one game on Monday but don’t panic as GW34 then gets underway on Tuesday!
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 active should you need a timely reminder.
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 GW33+
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 has been posted way in advance of when it usually is.
Our GW32+ Result…
Last week (was it, sort of?) we spoke about a couple of one-week punts and we have to say they both disappointed a bit. Doherty got his clean sheet but nothing more and the less said about Rashford the better.
Our double Burnley defence (we lie somewhat, Taylor came off the bench!) did us proud as usual with 16 points between them. Elsewhere in defence Wan-B waved his wand and got us 10. We’ll forgive TAA, both an off night and apparently a week on the ale.
KDB and Bruno were our other linchpins with a total of 29 between them.
DCL and Salah can go sit with Rashford in the deuce dunce corner.
Had we nailed our Captain we would have probably been looking at a very good GW. As it was we went ‘safe’ with Jimenez. Safe got us 4 points…
We did still manage to get 71 points which saw us register our 3rd straight post-lockdown green arrow which puts us up about 13,280 places to 100,078th.
GW33+ TRANSFER
We have WILDCARDED!
We mentioned last week that we had identified GW’s 33 and 34 as being a good combo for two of our remaining ‘chips’ (technically the WC isn’t a chip but you know what we mean) and our intention was to WC in this one with a view the Bench Boosting next week. And for once we have told the truth!
The new squad itself is in the picture below but we won’t go through it in minute detail as it is pretty self-explanatory. In short, we have had to include a couple of cheapies in the likes of Foden and Greenwood in order to afford the rest of the usual suspects, all with a view to that BB next week. Our two youngsters have however both been getting good minutes and crucially also producing point returns. We’ve kept our Liverpool duo in the hope that they sobre up a bit before a plum game against Villa (in theory). The rest either have good fixtures or are in such good form that we couldn’t ignore them.
GW33+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW33+ will be BRUNO FERNANDES
Our Vice-Captain will be Salah.
Salah had this in the bag. Until we saw him and his drunk-mates on Thursday night! And then the fickleness struck. Before City’s 4th had even been conceived we had a full house of twitchers and Bruno emergered from the shadows. We’ve decided to take the in-form Fernandes who still has something to play for over the lacklustre looking Salah, who doesn’t.

*Reposting:
Guys, should I do Son to Martial? team attached. Cheers. Also, should I stick with Auba?
I think it’s absolutely fine. Son has Bournemouth but so does Martial, just sooner. Man U are in much better form than Spurs.
Hey Kralin. So, You suggest the “hit” move? Think Everton will keep it tight for Spurs.
I didn’t realise it was for a hit. Martial in for Son seems a fine move. But for a hit, I’m not so sure.
Cheers mate. I think, I’d hold it as it is.
Had two free transfers….just did Rashford and Saka to Greenwood and Willian.
Who to captain between :-
De Bruyne away to Southampton
Fernandes home to Bournemouth
Greenwood home to Bournemouth
Jimenez home to Arsenal
Kane home to Everton
Son home to Everton
Willian home to Watford
Thanks
Jamie
Fernandes. Form and a great fixture. He’s V in my side, but I have Salah on the C.
+1
KDB for me Jamie. Very little to separate him and Bruno tbh. Both on penalties and core of all attacks.
Thanks guys.
Concerned that having the C and VC on Bruno and KdB with possible reduced minutes could feck up my game week.
Should I pick one or other as C and have the VC on Kane as a possible safety net.
Jamie
I would put the captain on Fernandes, with vice on Kane
1FT and 0.7m left
I could -4 and do:
Son to Salah
and DCL to a 4.4 ( I don’t really want Greenwood though as takes a Man U spot and benching headache with Foden)
Or Son to Pulisic? (Leaves cash for Aurier to AWB)
2nd option seems better for overall team but no Mo…
Can only afford a 4.3m (so basically Connolly) on the Salah route
I’d probably leave it be or do the Pulisic one. Yeah I’d want Salah but I’m not a fan of hits right now.
Thanks Init. That means going only 2 Man Utd which is a shame. But if a -4 for AWB isn’t worth it given Spurs play Everton then Bournemouth I don’t see a way?
Unless I pick Martial over Pulisic
Going with this.
That looks awesome!
This is how my squad looks with 1 FT and £0.4 in the bank.
For the first time this gameweek, I’m wondering about taking a hit – DCL and Lascelles to Greenwood and Walker, with a view to doing Guendouzi to Foden next gameweek. Thoughts?
You could just do DCL to Greenwood and have a perfectly serviceable side for this week sans a hit.
Cheers, Init. Hope you’re keeping well, bud
On a WC and have just seen Lascelles has a knock! I was planning to play him over Saiss this week but should I bench him and play Saiss or deal with the injury on my WC and bring someone else in? Would have 4.4 to spend.
Wolves have been superb defensively.
You could downgrade Martinez to Button and just use Pope then upgrade Lascelles to Boly.
If you’re looking for a straight swap then Holgate looks your man.
