Fantasy Football Live Match Chat and FF247 Site Team Gameweek 37+
Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 37+.
GW37+ Deadline; Saturday 18th July 4.30pm GMT
But can he play left-back?
These game-weeks are getting ridiculous now. As one ends, the next starts and so it is with GW37+, although at least this one lasts for five days. This is of course due to the weekend’s FA Cup semi-finals which are between Arsenal and Manchester City and then Manchester United and Chelsea. Now the implications of these cup semis are that players from any of the aforementioned teams could pick up injuries or fatigue from their Cup matches and it also means we won’t receive team news on their opponents (Watford, Villa, West Ham and Liverpool) before they meet in midweek.
The game-week begins on Saturday early evening, 5.30pm to be precise, with a real humdinger of a game as Burnley travel to relegated Norwich. That’s our only game of Saturday. Sunday sees two matches. First up is the local derby between Bournemouth and Southampton before Spurs entertain Leicester. We then move onto Monday as Brighton host Newcastle at the same time as Sheffield United take on Everton and then later on Wolves look to brush past Palace.
Tuesday sees Watford attempt to slow the Man City goal machine before Villa host Arsenal.
Finally, we conclude on Wednesday with Man United welcoming West Ham before Chelsea go to Liverpool.
If you’re worn out by all this then rest is assured as you have three and a bit days off before the last day of the season!
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.
FF247 SITE TEAM GW37+
Our GW36+ Result…
Tuesday began with us owning just Pulisic but also with some trepidation that Giroud would go bananas against a profligate Norwich and we’d have a monster on our hands come the next team meeting. Sure enough l’Adonis notched but thankfully just the one (with Pulisic handily assisting) and so onto Wednesday and hopefully a David Silva Masterclass to justify our eyebrow raising sale of KDB.
Not only did we buy Dilva, we bloody well captained him! And boy are we glad we did as he brought home the hallowed treble: a goal, assist and all 3 bonus. For a total of 26. That was the good news…
Elsewhere Foden blanked again and Pope lost his CS and 3 bonus points late on. Salah and TAA similarly disappointed with a 2 and a 0.
Wednesday brought us hope with Wan-B, Bruno, Greenwood and Ings all starting. The reality was a mixed bag with a CS, an assist and a goal between them leaving us somewhat confused as to whether that was enough or that we simply expected more. Probably 70/30 in favour of the latter.
That left Friday. And last weeks hero Cresswell propping up the rear. From hero to zero. Well ok, a two point zero but all the same.
That left us with 61 points and a rank of 38k, a rise from about 50k, but that’s not our final GW36+ rank. In the interests of getting this article live we have gone early and so will update the final rank when we can, as if it matters.
GW37+ TRANSFER
We have SOLD Vardy and BOUGHT Aubameyang
As much as we do eventually get some decisions correct and we do fairly well in general (relatively speaking) we shudder to think what people would make of our thought process in terms of ‘getting there’…
This week’s discussion began with selling Vardy and quickly went onto needing a defender instead. We had Martial playing left-back and wearing the armband at one point despite already owning 3 Man Utd players (which nobody noticed) and eventually came back round to Vardy. It’s like five clowns walking into a sweet shop at times.
To save the day, and our sanity, somebody pointed out Arsenal’s two remaining games and Aubameyang was ushered in with haste.
GW37+ CAPTAIN
Our Captain for GW37+ will be BRUNO FERNANDES
Our Vice-Captain will be (whoever came in for Vardy) AUBAMEYANG
No surprises here, Mr. Consistent got the vote. He’s looked like both the best, (and at the very least) the liveliest player in the league since he arrived. So much so you almost expect some sort of FPL return every time he moves, never mind gets on the ball.

Bournemouth v Southampton
(some picture of Romeu that)
Thanks for the clarification on Romeu, I thought it was the Domino’s delivery guy.
:haha: :laugh2:
Yeah he always looks like your friendly neighbourhood extortionist. TBF that’s how a midfield axe should look like hehe
I can’t wait for next season when Nick Pope will be 5.5 minimum and maybe 6 million. It will be refreshing to see teams with different keepers
If he’s 5.5 I would still pick Pope. Set and forget and it’s not as if Burnley have any attacking defenders to offer another option.
Yeah think he might even be 6 for that reason
Can’t see him being 6.0m. Will be 5.5 I would think.
Most clean sheets in the league and his ridiculous ownership. Also the Doherty price last year I would not be surprised to see him at 6
Leeds may be an interesting option defensively. Clean sheets in 48% of their league matches this season.
Yeah think I’ll be looking at a 4.5 Leeds defensive option
Why 5.5? I was thinking more like 5.0. Burnley is not exactly a powerhouse.
He has the most clean sheets in the league.
I thought that was Salah :wink2:
True, would you get him at 5.5?
I wouldn’t – and you probably couldn’t – dismiss him out of hand at 5.5mln.
Psychologically it seems a lot for the Burnley keeper but logically, again, the numbers speak for themselves.
I agree with GP
Kind of amazing that the difference between OR 1 and 10k is more than 200 points.
Yeah that is quite staggering.
True. I suppose it mirrors the PL table in a way. In a tight league race perhaps the fantasy margin would correlate. Or maybe the two aren’t related at all haha
Nah. It’s all at the hands of Mane’s DW 1pt disaster! 😉
I was a victim of that Mane TC.
hahaha that’s moi as well, Salah’s 16 points just makes it perfect misery.
I got the TC right with Salah I just got most of the others wrong and I somehow picked out the blanks
:haha: Dane and LRL, I was in the same club. Great Mane TC 3 points :dunce:
The same shit happened in the previous season.
TC Kane in DGW February for 6 points :rofl:
Was that last season? I remember also having TC on Sane’s horrorshow… *sigh* :wacko:
Yep, last season. In the first game Spurs lost away to Chelsea, he managed to only get a yellow card, then in the second managed just a goal at home vs Arsenal.
You are right ofc Ivan. Well the conclusion seems clear as water to me…
Never ever trust an ‘..ane’ person
Afternoon
Early thoughts on my team for GW38?
I think Tierney over Saiss
Will be using my BB chip!
Aha, well… Then maybe Saiss or Basham/Stephens out for a Burnley defender?
You look quite well set up for a bench boost there. Maybe Saiss out but that’s a bit boring
Nigel Pearson is apparently being sacked with 2 games to go.
Good ol’ Danny for 0-1 :popcorn:
Need vardy to out score him. So no more goals please
he’s still two behind and a game ahead, it’s a bit unlikely I’d say. On the other hand, I hope you haven’t bet too much money on it :wink2:
No money, just 2nd in my ml has him lol
You have some seriousjedi mind tricks there Gavy 😉
He’s some man!
He’s trolled me all season. Did nothing when I owned him
Same – I was about to ship him out but I think either GP or Kralin, well someone here…, talked me out of it at one point. Since then I’ve just been trolled by Firmino and DCL, and Pep… 😉
If it worked out for you it was me who advised you, if not Kralin, did it
:whistle:
The same here. He ‘s been in and out of my team all at the wrong time
I think I had him for this run
Ugh I feel you Smash, I got him in gw23… So yep, not ideal either
Smash,yes, we’ve missed his great spell before that and we were too late to jump on the bandwagon. If you study the top 10 FPL teams, they all had him at that period.
I feel bad for Bournemouth and Eddie Howe. I was hoping they could escape relegation but if they lose this one it’d be inevitable.
FPLwise I was thinking Vardy to Ings for a hit but didn’t do it. I hope I won’t regret my decision.
Yep. He seems keen to get that shiny boot, don’t fret
I thought they would win today
