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.

FPL FIXTURE TRACKER
FIXTURE TRACKER LINK
Afternoon guys,
Should I do
i) Rashford + Nketiah > Greenwood + Ings
ii) Rashford + Guendouzi > Greenwood + Foden
My current team,
Martinez
Trent, AWB, Aurier, Holgate
Salah, Fernandes, Son, KDB
Jimenez, Rashford
Button, Nketiah, Guendozi, Robinson with 2FT and 2ITB
Second one
2
Agree.
Cheers Smash, B and Jamie
Right as many answers as possible would be much appreciated please? Bench Greenwood or Jimenez?
Here’s the team
Tough call, but I’d lean towards Jimenez.
Play Greenwood, potentially higher ceiling this week.
Bench Jimenez
Smash I reckon Jimenez, that’s what I’m doing, I think.
I think Wolves have a tougher fixture, but who knows.
I have exactly the same dilemma, Smash, and I’m currently benching Jimenez
Bench Jimenez for me too.
Greenwood is on red hot form and has a higher ceiling compared to Jim’s points potential, which is not more than a goal. I’d play Greenwood.
Smash,
Red hot Man United play away to relegation zone Aston Villa.
Europa league Wolves away to Europa league chasing Sheffield United.
Greenwood has scored and assisted in the last two games whereas Jimenez has blanked.
Logic suggests play Greenwood and bench Jimenez.
May be a mute point in the end if for example Foden makes a no show.
Good luck.
Jamie
I would go with Greenwood.
Smash, why not make Kane captain? reasons behind it?
As soon as I saw KDB was benched last game he was always going to be my captain. Owning Kane is enough for me
Would you say captaining Kane is too much of a risk after the way he played last night, or worth a punt?
I have him, kdb and Fernandes, and going Kane as captain as a gamble
Hi all,
Sitting with 2FT and 2.1 ITB not sure what to so?
Pope Martinez
Chilwell Aurier Kabasele Saiss Robinson
Mane KDB Son Saka Fernandes
Greenwood Jimenez Rashford
Do you have a WC or any chips left to play? That kind of context will help people give you appropriate suggestions.
Free hit and triple captain left.
Chilwell to Garcia and Jimenez to Kane
Or
Son to Willian and Jimenez to Kane?
I wouldn’t get rid of Son ahead of BOU, so I prefer the Garcia/Kane option.
Have I picked the right starting 11?
I think so B, but perhaps have Aurier first on the bench?
+1
Yeah I agree with this
Think I would play Aurier over who though is a tough decision.
Jamie
I’ve got 1FT and 1.1 ITB
Any suggestions?
Was thinking of getting Sterling in for Mane?
How about Martinelli to Greenwood and then play him ahead of Aurier or Saiss?
Another plus one from me!
No brainer.
Had a look through some prior posts and think I’m going with this 11. Kiko could well get a CS though.
Best of luck all!
Looks good. I think you have it right, although purely from a CS perspective I would play Kiko over Aurier (BOU did score twice against Utd last week in defeat). However, Aurier does bring an attacking threat too, so probably has a higher ceiling than Kiko, so overall I think it’s better to play Aurier.
Cheers Chipster
