Fantasy Football Live Match Chat and FF247 Site Team Gameweek 35+

Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 35+.
GW35+ Deadline; Saturday 11th July 11:30am GMT

Timing is everything…

For those of you struggling to keep up with the rapid deadlines; tough sh*t & :punish: :mosking: It’s posted on site in at least three different locations, including a very handy countdown timer. But if you are one of those, not to name names, (Raz, Ivan & AJW) you may want to pay attention to the following as the next few weeks may prove particularly challenging for you;

GW35+ ends abruptly on Monday night, GW36+ then begins the following day. Which is called Tuesday, just in case you are already struggling to keep up. That one then goes all the way through until Friday night. And then GW37+ begins on Saturday. Which is the day that follows Friday.

As for 35+ itself we have the (now) usual divorce lawyers dream of five games on Saturday from about midday to 10pm, four on Sunday but ending at 8 and then another on Monday. But that’s where you need to start paying attention as 36+ creeps up quickly.

As always we shall endeavour to post the line-ups prior to each phase of the relevant GW and our usual aforementioned 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.

The games in full…

Our GW34+ Result…
Talking of timing our Bench Boost week began well on Tuesday with Pulisic smashing one in which also saw him grab a couple of bonus points. Foster let us down somewhat though as we had that one down as a nailed on clean sheet. Sort of.

In the more reliable corner Pope and Taylor duly delivered on Wednesday against the #bendoverBrady bunch. Taylor even obliged with an assist and the full three bonus.

Seemingly we picked the wrong Man City assets for their routing of Newcastle, but we suspect we weren’t alone in that. Captain KDB did still bring in a semi-respectable 14.

Our decision to keep Salah, or rather dither and not actually make a decision at all, inadvertently keeping him in the process, paid off big time. 18 points big time. TAA did diddly-squat though.

Jimenez doing likewise may have sealed his fate but we shall come onto that later. As for Doherty we just had to laugh, how could you not with a CS and bonus points in the bag after 90 minutes. And then that…

Heading into Thursday with 71 points and 5 players left its fair to say we were eyeing the hollowed ton. Things got off well with both Ings and Aurier doing their jobs. One with a goal, the other with a clean sheet and bagging 5 bonus points between them.

We just needed Man United to hammer Villa, or at least tap them out a bit. It ended up somewhere in-between the two stools but fortunately we seem to be better at picking players from the other side of Manchester (aka Salford) as our trio got 26 between them to take us to a final tally of 114.

This meant another green arrow and a healthy rise of over 50k places up to 33,422nd. Let’s go see what we did with our 2 free transfers.

GW35+ TRANSFER
We have SOLD Jiménez and Doherty and BOUGHT Vardy and errrrr someone we never thought we would buy.

Unfortunately our stooge who lazily couldn’t be arsed to sell Salah last week was given this week off from transfer decision duty. Hence it fell to the other maverick to orchestrate proceedings. And this one never does nothing. Ever.

Jiménez to Vardy was the obvious shout but we couldn’t afford that alone, in fact we were just 1.8mln short. Not an easy amount to find. We could sell Salah but our sensible ones wouldn’t allow that. We could sell TAA, but that was thrown out too. Despite both being likely to be benched this week. Allegedly. The sale of Doherty was mooted and then gained traction. But who would we buy for 4.6mln? It was then suggested we buy Iheanacho and save all the hassle. That idea wasn’t even commented on. Bastards. Just watch him outscore Vardy. So we had 4.6mln to spend on a defender. Not much there. And no suggestions from the Brains Trust so nothing was done and just like that Vardy’s price rose overnight and now we only had 4.5mln to spend.

To cut a long story short (errrrrm bit late for that pal), we had a choice of Jack Stephens of Southampton and Aaron Cresswell of West Ham. Lol. All this to get Vardy. FML. Both have decent looking fixtures. Even Cresswell and his bunch of useless no-hopers, but at least he can cross the ball even if defending is a slight issue.

Amazingly, Cresswell was voted in basically so we can play him vs Norwich this week rather than Stephens vs United. It’s a genius move that we recommend you all make immediately.

GW35+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW35+ will be Bruno

Our Vice-Captain will be Vardy

Bruno won the vote 3-2 with a late surge in the voting. Difficult to argue with as he is the form player of the league and has the added bonus of playing in the final fixture of the game-week on Monday evening.

  1. Which WC draft?

  2. Thoughts on this wc draft?

    • Looks OK to me.

      You may want to plan a Salah to Sterling move in 38 so Jesus to Vardy then maybe or whoever else fits the bill.

      • Or just keep Vardy now and swap Salah to sterling?

        • Unfortunately we have no way of guessing whether or not Sterling will start. If we knew that for sure then I would fancy him more (as Liverpool seem to be going through the motions).

          So selecting him comes with a certain degree of risk and there’s not much time left. On balance you’d think there will be more minutes from Salah this week. And for all the going through the motions stuff they’ll still create a few chances.

        • Ok I’ll stick with Salah for now as my rival also has him. Is this any good?

        • My only thought is whether Chelsea will do the business

        • Put Salah where sterling is and Vardy to Jesus

        • When I emerge from the FH Vardy will be there and I’m not unhappy about that – he is pretty reliable.

          Fingers crossed re Chelsea and remember Norwich are pretty hopeless, new lease of life at being relegated notwithstanding.

          I’ll leave it to you to untie the twisted skein of your opponent’s next move. I’m sure you’ll be fine.

        • Cheers

    • Nice to see I’m not the Only one on a WC! I’ll not pass comment as I’m likely just as unsure as you are!!

    • Is this side with a BB in mind? I still have that to play too but my current thinking is not too dissimilar to yours so it’s a thumbs up from me (I guess I can’t help myself!) :good:

      • Yes originally planned BB this week but soy cocked that up ! So WC then BB is my thinking

  3. Should I use fh or just keep it for dgw? Also have a TC left.

    • You seem utterly convinced there is a DGW so I would save it for then, Raz.

      • You reckon there won’t be?

        • Maybe look back at the comments people have taken the trouble to post the myriad times you’ve raised this.

        • Just come in to this one. Raz,there is no DGW . Check the fixtures left and there is just 36,37,38 and no dgw in there. So play your chips over them.
          Be lucky smile

      • Oh Kralin. I really do admire your patience. I have an image of you gnawing on a cushion at the moment trying not to scream :laugh2:

        • I’m assuming it’s an attempt at humour.

          Maybe there’s some deep cultural inference I’m missing – perhaps that sort of thing has people’s sides absolutely splitting wherever it is that Raz calls home.

    • Save it for the treble GW. I think I’m going to free hit but still not 100%

  4. Question. How does soyunchu get minus 2 for conceding 4 goals when he only conceded 2 goals by being sent off?!

    • B4*

    • Red Cards

      If a player receives a red card, they will continue to be penalised for goals conceded by their team.

      Red card deductions include any points deducted for yellow cards.

    • I think all conceded goals for the entire game still count against players who are sent off.

    • You should write an article on your quest to work that one out.

      But it’s the 5 BPS he received that had me scratching my head, Bigperm1980: did he continue to receive BPS after being sent off.

  5. Ok, let’s play a game, for shits and giggles but also mainly to help me choose the best City players on my WC… who do you think gets the not in the front 6 against Bournemouth this week!?

    • I think Sterling will start. As will KDB and Jesus.
      Rosco, would love your take on my comment below? 204.
      All the best!

    • oh god…

      well I’m going for Foden, kDB and Jesus in the FH.

    • Foden should start haven been rested, Ken should start because its kdb and jesus because he didn’t play 90 minutes and is city’s only CF

    • KDB, Foden, Dilva, Jesus, Gundogan

    • I got a feel for David Silva. His swan song is but a few games away, City have other pursuits and I don’t think he starts in their strongest XI. I see him perhaps getting Prem game time.

    • I am going for KDB,Dilva and Jesus ,with Son on the bench in case I am wrong . Got 2 Chelsea and 2 Everton in defence after them both conceeding 3. Madness or what. I am on a FH so can chamnge it.

  6. Jimenez or Vardy out for Ings? Vardy probably wants the golden boot…so Jimenez?
    Is Sterling likely to start? Could take 4ph for Mane to Sterling?
    Thanks guys!

    • Jiminez

    • Sterling’s last 3 looks class on pepe. Jimmy was lucky from the spot.

    • Do you not fancy Jesus at all, Bees?

      • Not right now Chipster. I think I am fine with Vardy (gunning for golden boot) Greenwood and Ings.

    • I think I’d be getting Ings in for Jimi given the two options. I don’t think I’d take the hit for sterling as I’m not convinced he starts and Mane most probably will!
