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.

HOWS THAT NOT A PENO????
At least Gary N is biest lol
Has Vardy even touched the ball today? LEI look so weak. Who to swap for you Vardy owners?
Kane if you have the funds.
Jesus if you don’t have all your city spots full.
Will probably go for Kane. So sick of Pep roulette. Always make the wrong choice.
Thinking of the same. Hes playing very well
Kane/Jesus/Auba/Rashford
Jesus or Rashford probably. I haven’t made my mind up (and if injuries creep in then he may have to stay).
Typical Kane style. Had him for 4 weeks when he did f all, since I removed him last week can’t stop scoring :rant:
Am looking forward to next season Ivan. Lately my decisions have not gone great either.
Bees, you can say that again. Can’t wait to be over, the worst season I could remember
Ivan, who do you think will be in the MC line up next week?
Me and you both, looking forward to next season.
Bees, nobody can ever predict City lineups, gave up on this long time ago. Sometimes wonder if Pep knows it :laugh2:
:big-lol:
By this time next week the season will be done! :good:
Carolyn, what an amazing season has been for you. You are in Top 1000 as I predicted last week. Very, very well done girl :good:
Are there any rewards for such an outstanding performance?
Thank you Ivan, had some great advice and a big chunk of good luck thrown it!
No, but all the boys at work who think I shouldn’t know anything about football have to pay me money. :big_boss:
There are some dark horses in the fantasyfootball247league. The leader is 25th in the world :blink:
I wish some of them say hi on here sometime
That’s the best reward you can get! :yes: :popcorn: 😎
Hear hear..very very good season for you..hope the works league has a decent payout
Ooh…I love that Carolyn!!! Congratulations!
Outstanding Carolyn, well done. Your best ever by the looks of it. What did you do so differently this time?
Ivan, on the league thing that’s what prompted the creation of the Regs League. No idea who most of those are and don’t really care.
I played completely differently this year, I kept the majority of the money in mid field and played 3-5-2 a lot I played wildcard early, left transfers as late as possible, only took a hit if the chance it paying off over a few weeks was there, watched motd every week, believed in my gut nstinct and had some luck for example triple captain TAA in double game week. Lots of advice and support on here from you all. Finally I completely ignored twitter!
Bet you wished you hadn’t asked now! :big-lol:
Oh and I didn’t chase late weeks points scorer, stuck with long-term form.
Hi Carolyn,
Well done on such an amazing ranking.
Maybe the ff247 team can introduce a new weekly feature for next season:-
“Ask Carolyn ” where the ff247 community ask your opinion on team, subs, transfers, formations and chip use.
Jamie
Thanks Carolyn, asked for a reason and your answer being good and thorough may prompt an email from Cookie at some point about a possible interview article. He doesn’t know yet either but he will when he reads this.
I think Carolyn has answered all those questions in her reply above, Jamie.
She forgot to mention the dog tactic for choosing a captain though – memorable advice that only a true great would have up their sleeve.
Awesome rank.
Great rank. Hope you get a big green arrow next gw Carolyn
Wow. You are rocking it. Congrats. Majorly impressed.
Well played Carolyn, showed all us blokes + OAPs a way to go. As Init has mentioned above, that open league means nowt to us, its the Regs leagues that count, your well on for a prize. Some who are in a prize places at the moment will be getting diddly squat i’m afraid, they are not regulars on site, ruthless me. Congrats once again.
Thank you Elle, if I win can I have a t shirt? :big_boss:
Don’t know why they bother Elle, not like we don’t check. There’s only one on there right now, in the top 10 anyway, who I don’t know. I think we’ve discussed him anyway, go boot.
And yes Carolyn you can have a t-shirt.
Elle – what constitutes a regular for this league, i.e. how long membership/how much activity would be required? Could be fun to join next season
Awesome rank Carolyn. Congratulations for the same. :good:
Well done Carolyn, I am jelous. How did you manage to have alomst 7m extra in team value if you did not do your transfers earlier in a week?
Same here. And I switched back and forth with Vardy and I missed all their points.
Ivan. Story of this season. Same pinch. :rofl:
Wow, de Gea has gone to hell! Two absolute shockers! 😯
Only seen a few mins. If he was at fault, it’s a big big problem. Is henderson capable of stepping up?
Can’t do much worse. A lot of chat that Romero may even play vs West Ham.
Actually liked Romero anytime I’ve seen him. Albeit that’s not much. I’d imagine Henderson gets recalled?
OGS has stuck by DDG and is loyal. But now he looks like a golfer with the yips.
Not even sure why Romero didn’t play today.
I would hope this is now Hemderson’s chance yep.
Chelsea played well and deserved the win. A semi-final being United’s third game in 6 days was just too much.
Two strange results given that both Manc teams have been the best since we resumed. As a neutral I wanted an all Manchester final.
United have a massive problem with De Gea and it’s more than his form. He’s the highest paid player in the Premier League on a contract till 2023. He’s on 375k per week it’s very easy to say just bring Henderson in but what will they do with De Gea. They are kind of stuck with him as no club will be able to afford to pay his wages.
He’s been in fine fantasy form. Though I may turf him out for Ederson for GW38 (not because of today more because Ederson seems almost guaranteed for 6 points).
I thought he had a good game
Martial injured? 😯
nevermind just a stupid app notification…
Came on as a sub and did go off for treatment 4holding his back but he hasn’t been subbed off
thanks for clarifying MattX :good:
Semi final. Max 4 games left. Unless Martial had some knock or underlying stats look off, then u start him. Looked lethal the last few weeks.
Ok guys really need your help plz
At the start of this gwk I was 47pts clear in my ML
starting to panic with rival closing in.
Got my FH chip to play (my rival has no chips left)
So I want to “go for it“ as it’s the last games of the season, but I still want to keep a few of his main players?
This is what I’m thinking so far?
His team
Looks good to me. Keep an eye on the rest of the games but should do well.
Thx Matt
Depends on ur goal bigs. If it’s solely to win, mirror his team
This. But be wary if she/he has wc/fh chips left you might be mirroring the wrong team
nevermind, just saw your comment again.
That’s exactly what I thought when I read it. Couldn’t write a better scenario. Couple of variables of course such as him making a transfer and Capo of course but generally speaking you can more or less guarantee a win here.
Thx guys
Been crushing him all season but the last few gwk he’s come from nowhere.
I Need to be cool and not over think it 😎
Mirror his team and imagine his face when he sees what you’ve done. :declare: :hi:
Dreamers
Yea wanna win..but in style 😎
Comes down to ur goal
Win with style is different to win at all costs.
What’s the points diff?
Dreamers
I was 47 pts ahead at the start of this gwk
He’s got Kane so He’s off to a good start.
Ings let me down missing that pen :rant:
Key thing is it’s the start of the GW – long way to go yet.
When I found out about the missed penalty – he’d probably have gone on to a hat-trick had that gone in – I ground my teeth with frustration. But 4 points is better than nul points. And what a player Ings has been.
You will win your ML.
I must admit I’m a bit worried about this GW I’m on zero points from no players with Aurier on the bench. Yeah I’ve had no players but the ones that have generally have points on the board
No players in action and worries seems to be taking pessimism to new levels.
I’m hoping to track the average this week and somehow strike it lucky with the captaincy next week.
