FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team DGW34
Welcome to the FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GDGW34. Guess what? We got another green arrow (that’s 7 in a row now!!) but we still only climbed 7.5k places up to 140,557. This is getting excruciatingly predictable. Maybe DGW34 will be different. Our GW33 of score of 37 was pretty crap really, but somehow we beat the average (32). This write up will be very brief by the way. Our captain Aubayemang scored 12pts and Vardy scored 8pts. Our next highest scorer was Matt Ryan who scored 3! We were right to bench DDG lol! We have 6 players scoring 2pts and two scoring a single point each. It was painful to witness but many were in the same boat and there was no damage done. Somehow.
Onwards and upwards to the big double and points galore. Righto!
Last weeks result…
This week’s transfer(s) – we have sold Aubameyang and Ibe and bought Lukaku and Gündogan
We started the transfer discussion on Monday and thought we had nailed it. Lukaku was to come in and be captained – there was a strong call for Kane, but he narrowly lost out. Sadly, there was no comeback for Kane with us, no, we are stronger than the Premier League. The only issue was which cheap midfielder to replace Ibe with – there were a number of candidates suggested – Kenedy, JWP, Milivojevic, Gündogan, Groß, Lennon. Lennon and JWP were quickly discounted, for obvious reasons. Milivojevic was strangely not really talked about a lot, despite his form – his lack of a DGW probably counting against him. Which left 3 – Kenedy, Gündogan and Groß. Groß won that vote easy – that’s what two double game-weeks do for you.
Phew, decision made, time to make the transfers and write up the article.
And that’s just about when we went back to square one for we already owned three Brighton players! Jeez – no-one had noticed. 12 hours it took to reach that decision. For nothing.
To cut a long story short we then chose between Kenedy and Gündogan. Both double in 37, one is sure to start, one less so but plays in a better team and will likely play more often than not and faces much better fixtures with a dream double. The sensible, conservative choice would have been to go with the sure to start Kenedy when the comment was made, ‘our conservative choices have hardly served us well so far.’ !! Good point, well made. Gündogan wins 3-2. He’s a punt, we hope to get lucky in that he will play with Fernandinho’s suspension and when the title is won Silva may be afforded more personal time off.
We are playing our Bench Boost with 13 DGWers and Salah and errrr Gündogan. Bring it on!
The team in full
Our captain is Lukaku, vice captain Vardy
With fixtures vs West Brom and Bournemouth, our flat track bully gets the armband. Just one of Big Rom’s goals has come vs the top 6 clubs and our skipper has already scored vs the Baggies and Cherries this season. With Champions League qualification within touching distance we expect Mourinho to play his striker in both games vs defences not exactly known for their clean sheets.

Great article Cookie!
Any thoughts on the Gross/Lingard dilemma
Horse, we debated it for a long time. Well the Gross part, we already have 3 United so couldn’t get Lingard anyway.
Personally I don’t like the Gross angle – I know he has 2 doubles but the fixtures border on dreadful. You may as well get another cheap midfielder and spend more in defence or alternatively find another 0.9mln for Arnie.
Out of the two I would choose Lingard, if you want to beat an answer out of me!
Cheers Cooks.
I wish I did have the extra 0.9. I would definitely get Arnie in again.
Wouldnt want to make a United transfer without getting the okay from you.
Mate, Lingard may work out well. The fixtures are there and Utd should score so he should be involved.
But….I cannot predict what Mourinho is going to
do. Personally it wouldn’t surprise me to see Mata, Martial & Rashford get more gametime in 34 so that could easy detract from Lingard’s minutes. Or I may be overthinking it!!
Bottom line, Lingard should be a better pick than Gross. In my view.
Hi guys great info as per usual!! Be lost without it tbh.
Help help and more help. Do I bbnow or tc? Was thinkin tc Lukaku but then Kane in 37 looks sooo tasty. I’ve already made a -4 so to really use B.B. I’d need to go a note 2 transfers costing me in total minus 12 and don’t see that being ideal considering B.B. point would be sort of lost. I can’t make my mind up! Chasing mini league I need this haha
Jumpers, do you still have your WC?
If not how easy could you get 15 DGWers for 37? If its a struggle maybe you BB this week.
Hey cookie thanks for replying. I have tc B.B. and free hit. Plan on fh 35 I believe and apart from 2 Burnley defenders and salah I have full squad of doubles for 37 now. Again it’s if I tc now on Lukaku or save it for Kane. Preference is Kane. Just I’ve used -4 for this week to have what I have to make use of B.B. I’d need to bring in 2 more players costing me a total of -12 and seems waste of time doing that really to gain using B.B.
Whats your plan for tripple captain?
Kane in gw 37?
Yep
Followed suit and captained Lukaku. Thanks Cookie.
0 FTs, 0.8 ITB. Should I use my BB here? Used WC, but still got FH and TC.
Macro, yes I would BB that team.
How does my FH team look for this week? Planning to roll with about 9 players for 35, WC in 36 and BB in 37 with a whole squad of dgw players or as close to.
Igy, do you think that Son is going to start both the games? If yes, then he’s a very good shout. Rest of the team looks very good..Just watch Pope’s situation.
