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.

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.

FPL FIXTURE TRACKER
FIXTURE TRACKER LINK
I’m leaning toward the sensible Aurier —> Tarkowski. As otherwise I’d have Kiko…
Still toying with bringing Martial in for -4.
Or Salah for Pulisic.
Any other ideas?
Sorry should say the -4 would be Foden + Greenwood to Martial + Wood.
1FT and 5.8m
How about Jiménez for Greenwood?
Nothing to say Chelsea won’t turn up the heat vs Liverpool. They’re still wanting third.
+1
Which of these 2 drafts for a FH would you all go for?
Sterling or Jesus without knowing how they’re going to line up in the fa cup…
Also chasing main league by 15 points. Sensible to spread the backline like I have done or put it all on red and roll with a full burnley/wolves defence and hope for the best?
Yeah I’d go all in with Burnley Wolves!
Sterling option for me!
Cheers for both comments Rosco.
Daft I forgot cup games are in amongst the gw and not done and dusted before gw starts to get an idea of city/united assets
Rosco, I see you are a fellow Sterling+KdB victim. What are your plans for this gw?
Currently I’m on team cappo Sterling… (as they say in trading, when in trouble, double…)
hi guys
ings, david silva or bruno fernandez for the captaincy?
Bruno!
Most seem to be going for Bruno. However, a Golden Boot-chasing Ings against a porous Bournemouth might be tempting!
Ings with the golden boot would be nothing short of hilarious! :big_boss:
Hi guys,
I am leading 68 points in my mini league, 2 gws before the end. The guy that is second, although, has bench boost and TC left, so I guess he will use them both in the remaining games. I don’t have any chips left. What I do have is 1FT and 0.1 in the bank. Here is my projected squad for the gameweek. I will be very grateful to read your thoughts and comments. Should I do transfers this week (Vardy to Jimenez, because of the Pallace game) or should I keep it for the last GW. I want to have as close as possible team to the guy that is trailing me.
Thanks!

my opponent’s team in gw36
I thought Gallant Pioneer answered this pretty well at the top of page 4…
Vardy to Jiminez would be fine. I wouldn’t fret about your closest rival; their BB won’t yield enough points (especially wih two injured players) and their TC will be a hit or a miss (just like everybody else’s).
Sheffield United have signed a new keeper, Wes Foderingham. Preparing for the departure of Henderson when his loan expires? :popcorn:

Lovely pick DSilva captain for the Site team that was.
0FT. All set? Saka only viable bench player this GW.
looks promising :good:
