Fantasy Football Live Match Chat and FF247 Site Team Gameweek 34+
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 34+.
GW34+ Deadline; Tuesday 7th July 5:00pm GMT
A game of two halves
WAKEY WAKEY FOLKS! GW 34+ is upon us, about 14 hours after the last one finished. And we are back as ever with the latest LMC and FF247 Site Team news.
Finally it looks like some of the players and teams are warming up nicely and perhaps those balmy yet boring evenings of bore draws and friendly pre-season type games are behind us. This particular one spans three days over Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday before we have the now usual break on Friday ahead of getting going again with GW35+ on Saturday. It’s Christmas on steroids.
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 active should you need any quick help keeping up.
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 GW34+
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 is now posted way in advance of when it usually is.
Our GW33+ Result…
Our GW (and WC) got off to a flier with Captain Bruno of the Good Ship Ole hauling 30 points. His mate Mason grabbed two goals and his performance probably deserved more than the meagre 13 that it brought in. The new Mbappe anyone? Either way enjoy him at £4.4m as he’ll be a damn sight more next season. Wan-B was our other United asset but Bournemouth unexpectedly p*ssed on our CS chips.
Doherty and Jimenez were suprisingly quiet against Arsenal but Pulisic rounded our Saturday off nicely with an assist and a great performance which gives us hope that he will keep his spot in Frank’s team. The new Hazard anyone?
If Saturday was good then Sunday was a different beast as it began poorly with Pope conceding a late goal and the feckin eejit didn’t even make enough saves to garner a bonus. He’s been told. Must try harder.
Things did improve marginally with Salah grabbing a late assist and TAA managing an inevitable CS, but nothing more. Not quite what we expected from either at home to Villa. KDB was then benched, as was Foden who would have been his replacement for us. Both emerged for fruitless 30 minute cameos. The only surprise was that Foden didn’t score to compound our Sunday misery.
We finished the week on 71 points. That left us with another green arrow and a rise of 13,150 places up to 86,928TH.
GW34+ TRANSFER
We have SOLD and BOUGHT……eh? Not sure? So a day or two ago we were all for selling Salah and buying Son. Then we watched Spurs play a bit and started thinking maybe that was not so wise. The problem though is we had no consensus on what to actually do. Someone said Sterling, the other said just keep Salah. Kop is still drunk and one of our other committee members never appeared. So basically the decision was left to the person finishing up this article and if you leave the decision to a lazy person don’t be shocked when he makes the lazy (not necessarily wrong) decision. So we did nothing or did we? Well, if we do change our mind in the morning we will be sure to update this article and post it on the chat, well someone will, but it won’t be this lazy ass, my work here is done!!
We have played our BENCH BOOST
Yep, we’re going chip crazy here. In fact this is our last. We played our WC last week with the intention of following through with the BB as we had identified this week and last as a good combo for doing so. Part 1 went well ish, let’s see how Part 2 pans out…
GW34+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW34+ will be Kevin De Bruyne.
Ironically his benching at Saints helped us along nicely to this decision, for obvious reasons. Although he did look a little off colour when he came on. Probably just needs a shave.
Our Vice-Captain will be our new signing Bruno Fernandes.

These long game weeks are not good for the nerves.
Started the game week 14 points behind my mini league rival. Got it down to 3 after Willian’s 11 points. Back up to 36 after Wednesday’s games and back down to 16 points behind once this game week is all wrapped up.
Lloris, Maguire, Digne, Fernandes and Greenwood saved the bacon after Kane and Son feck up.
Ended up with 71 points this game week.
Oh and a special mention to Carolyn who has the Regulars League “nailed” this season.
Jamie
This was the best week I have had since the return. I am on 75 and my only real downer is Rico on the bench and I picked the wrong damn captain as usual. Alas we march on though. I don’t so much care about my ML now as most of the participants from work have long bailed after the stoppage. I am trying to get back to a decent overall ranking I guess. It has been a brutal return to FPL for me.
Let’s have some fun! Use 1 word to describe your GW. I will start – worst.
Stressful
Sensational
Average
Satisfying
unchecked
Bench
Wonderful mate
Insane score Initt.
Well played mate!
😯
Gravy
Kane :suicide:
Best.
Unexpected 105 points, chip free.
That’s fantastic MHD! Good work and good luck in the next few weeks.
Thanks mate.thanks mate.
Congrats to everyone who did well (special shoutout to Innit and MHD for going over the 100 mark). And to everyone with a bad GW – I feel your pain.
Most importantly – don’t forget that despite of our results, we are in this together! Thanks for joining my little game and for your continuous support! Good luck to you all!
Ok so thinking of playing WC this week and BB in 36, first pic is of current team and 2nd one a quick WC team I’ve put together.
What do we reckon?
Thanks
Hey Shadow im doing the same but came up with this
Nice, a lot of similar players. I could potentially get rid of TAA maybe but has a near nailed on CS against Burnley if he plays.
That’s was I fear. I was thinking maybe hold the WC til Gameweek 36 and BB 37? You had a look?
City, United, Chelsea & Leicester all have decent fixtures for 36. I think I’m gonna WC this week and BB in 36 still, although as mentioned below probably need some Chelsea coverage!
I’d want some Chelsea cover for 36 bb
Good point, def perhaps? Obviously there’s Pulisic & Willian but not sure which of my mids I’d get rid of..
Let me k is if you come up with any other drafts. I think I may go for the above
Thinking of using my wc in preparation for bb in 36. Current team is first followed by a few drafts. Firstly do I need to WC now? I need to at some point and if so which team? Cheers
Drafts
I’m currently 70 points in front in my ML so wondering do I leave it another gw
Anyone?
That don’t look like enough changes for a wildcard for me
That’s partly why I’m wondering why I should wc only because I need to at some point :wacko:
Could just do holgate to Doherty and wait another week
Hey kickers I’ve gone with the following for a wildcard and BB in 36.
Hate the thought of losing taa but need to have a good back line for the BB. I’ve not committed to this yet
Looks decent not sure about double Everton in def though
I know wgat you mean but digne is in good form and everton have a decent run and chances of clean sheets
When you exclude penalties in PL this season:
Rashford 9 goals in 2,300 mins
Greenwood 9 goals in 998 mins
Rashford scores from open play every 255 mins, Greenwood scores every 110 minutes
I’m thinking I should swap them, but would it them be worth bringing in Vardy for a hit?
With your amazing rank you should be telling us!! That is a tough one though.
This is me with one free transfer. I’m fairly sure I will free hit GW36. Then can I get away with less than three United players that week. Anyway this week bringing in Vardy for Kane seems a bit of a no brainer really! Though could easily go Jesus who’s fixtures are unbelievable
Any money itb Smash? I did Jimenez to Vardy last night and kept Kane (I am clearly a sado-masochist).
Have you done a FH36 draft yet? Utd have PAL away, so not a terrible fixture by any means. Could be dangerous to drop any of your Utd boys for that.
Can you do Jimenez to Jesus, for example?
Nah unfortunately nothing in the bank. I did a quick draft no idea if it will look like this
Vardy is the sensible choice for this week if that kick thing has been sorted, but Jesus has got the potential to be more exciting, so I would go for Jesus
Thanks yeah will see what comes out in the pressers
