Fantasy Football Live Match Chat and FF247 Site Team Gameweek 36+
GW36+ Deadline; Tuesday 14th July 7.15pm GMT
These game-weeks are turning up more often than a Trump gaffe but unlike the illustrious leader we have your best interests at heart.
So take note of this week’s deadline…. 7.15pm on TUESDAY. We had FF247’s very own Rosco joining Raz’s ‘Forgot the deadline club’ in GW35+ so be warned it can happen to the best (or sleepiest) of us.
GW36+ is a 4-day Tuesday-Friday game-week starting in West London and ending with a Friday night knees up in the East End.
Loads of opportunities for big hauls with Chelsea hosting Norwich, City toying with the Cherries (but who will Pep rest?), Everton having a pop at that Villa defence, the United scoring tour stopping off at Palace, Ings looking to do a Raheem to the Brighton defence and Antonio owners praying for a déjà vu.
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.
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 GW36+
Our GW35+ Result…
Saturday started off well with our new acquisition Cresswell getting a clean sheet. Unfortunately things went downhill from there! Foster inevitably conceded and then TAA was benched. Salah, KDB and Pulisic may as well as have been too for all they did. 17 points from 6 was looking a far way from our 114 heroics only a few days ago.
Our Sunday interest was limited to our other new acquisition Vardy. He duly delivered too, with a goal in a 4-1 hammering. Unfortunately it was the wrong way round, so much for chasing Bournemouth!
Monday saw us out with our treble Man Utd coverage and Ings. For the most part they had the same luck as the rest of the team. Ings, Greenwood and Wan-Bi combined for 4 points. Bruno at least got an assist and since he was our captain that gave us 10, not great, but compared to most of his mates, it was freaking awesome. This left us with a final tally of 38. :slaphead:
This bad GW led us to dropping 16,724 places and left us in 50,146th place in the overall rankings.
GW36+ TRANSFER
We have sold KDB and bought David Silva.
The transfer decision this week was painful, drawn out and not really concluded in an satisfactory manner, but this is what makes it fun and never boring. This week’s matches come just before the FA Cup semi-finals and as such we were led by Pep’s comments that he will make 5/6 changes to the midweek starting XI at home to Bournemouth. Cue the clamour to get in David Silva who has been in such sparkling form when he plays, but of course can’t play three games in a week. Home matches vs Bournemouth and Norwich seem the perfect opportunity to end his City career in a blaze of glory. Fair. But then from behind the curtain came the cry, ‘Vardy to Giroud’ as Chelsea host the hapless Norwich. It was an incessant cry that droned on and on before the committee could hear no more. ‘FCK GIROUD’. Which is a bit bizarre given this site’s infatuation with l’Adonis.
Onto the transfer decision and if we got Silva, who would go? Salah and KDB were mooted. ‘Vardy to Giroud’ echoed round the chambers. Again. And again. Foden to Silva? Couldn’t afford that. Unless we errrrm sold Vardy for… Giroud. However as you know this committee hates hits. Well 60% of them do. In the end our Giroud lover sulked off never to be seen again (for now) and he left with the strop, ‘I won’t be around tomorrow to write or publish. Do what you like, nobheads.’
Finally we plumped to sell KDB. It’s not a move we would have made if there was more of the season left and who’s to say we won’t yet buy him back for GW38? But for now Pep’s priority is the Cup semi-final so we are going with the belief that KDB will see reduced (hopefully zero) minutes vs Bournemouth and likewise at Watford just 72 hours later.
Cue the KDB masterclass. And Giroud hatty no doubt.
Our only issue then was whether to bench Greenwood or Vardy. Greenwood got the call up, given he plays vs Palace who look like they lost interest months ago.
GW36+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW36+ will be David Silva.
It wasn’t enough to be KdB’s replacement. No sir. The committee have gone all maverick and captained Silva. It could be gold! Let’s hope so. Just in case we’ve called Pep-tation all wrong, Bruno is our vice-captain.

Want to bring in a MC player but have no idea who is likely to start.
I am sure some of you have figured it out somewhat….who would you suggest?
Jesus, Dilva? Already have KDB who probably won’t start? :wacko:
Cheers!
Depends on tomorrow’s line-up which unfortunately is past the FPL deadline. Sterling and KDB will start that one. Beyond that it’s guess work.
Promise that init? :popcorn: :excited: :drinks:
Yes. But just to be clear I’m ‘promising’ they will start tomorrow in the semi. That’s hardly brain surgery. Who then starts midweek I’ve no idea.
Ah right… nevermind then
May take a chance and bring in Dilva.
Init, Smash, what are your thoughts on Jesus starting?
No idea
Actually I’m going to put my neck out I reckon Ederson starts
Hey lads,
So finally clawed my way back up my ML and am leading by 24 pts. The only problem is, I’ve used up all my chips and the chap in second has got his bench boost AND free hit left. What moves do you reckon I should do this GW? I’ve got 1ft and 2.5itb. Here’s my team:
Here’s his team:
Don’t know much about Leeds United players. Any FPL prospects to look out for in that squad?
*Meant as post.
I’ve had a quick glance at attacking stats for their season so far (2 games to go):
– Patrick Bamford (fwd) (16 goals & 2 assists)
– Pablo Hernandez (mdf) (8G & 7A)
– Mateusz Klich (mdf) (6G & 5A)
– Jack Harrison (6G & 8A)
How about the defenders or keeper I’d be looking more there
Thanks. Maybe Bamford cheap 4.5 striker.
4.5 more like 6-6.5 lol
Defensively (with 2 games to go):
– 15 CSs.
– GK has faced and failed to save 3 pens.
– Most minutes: Ben White (CB) (3960 mins, 2 assists)
– K. Philips a bit of a card magnet (9Y 1R)
– whoscored.com rate L. Ayling (RB) as their best rated overall player (4G & 4A).
Ayling and white then if 4.5
Looks like it :yes: .
Ayling might be a good 4th/5th man.
Problem is in recent years they have priced them at 5 and no one takes them
You have 2 Chelsea. Maybe Giroud -> Jimi?
That’s a nice looking team you have. I’d just roll the FT, however I’d be wary about captaining a Man City player with Pep’s rotation. Then again, he who dares!
Evening all
I hope everyone is well?
What moves is everyone planning for this GW?
I’m about 25 points behind my rivals in my main ML and im looking to take a few risks.
What would you do with this lot? I have 1FT & 1.5 ITB
Hey Mitro ! Play your united defender over Stephens and bank your transfer.Team looks good this gw.2 transfers in gw38 will be very usefull.
United defender lol where?
In the Red and white stripes :big_boss:
Looks decent this week. Just play Greenwood and Basham over Stephens and Pulisic
+1
Can’t decide on whether to use a transfer on a replacement for Taylor or to carry, what’s the story with Stephens, does anyone know
With only two GWs left, it’s probably not worth worrying about your third bench spot (I’m not at least; Lascelles is going to rot quietly until Sep
).
2FTs would be useful for GW38+, especially if the FA cup fixtures at the weelend wipe out your City and Utd players.
True, I’m depending on Stephens starting though.
Any suggestions for this weeks transfer 33 points behind the leader in ML
RYAN
BOLY TAA WAN B
SALAH KDB PULISIC DAVID SILVA BRUNO F
GIROUD GREENWOOD
Martinez Taylor egan nketiah 3.1 ITB
You look quite well set up just got to move a Chelsea player on. Maybe Jesus in.
thanks. I thought Jesus. just worried about rotation
Giroud to Jesus,Ings or even Wood ?
thanks. think it’ll be Jesus
Any ideas what to do with this lot ? 1 FT 1.3m itb.Free hitting in gw38.
T.i.a
The boring GK transfer for me. Pope oR even Patricio and tripling up
Thats what i was thinking,Foster has been an absolute liability !
