Who are you? Who are you? Fantasy manager profiles Part 10

Who are you? Who are you? Fantasy manager profiles Part 10

Here at FF247 towers we’ve often wondered… how many manager profiles it takes to fill an international break. A lot apparently! We shall be back to normal on Monday with Fixtures, Tips, Capos and Team Talk etc and we may have an Interview with a top 100 ranked player over the weekend but until then… Back to the profiles!

Next up to the examination table are the young and the (semi) old. A contrast indeed as we warmly welcome billisBob and Potty.

    Hi guys. Been to Manchester today a Mother’s Day present from our daughter Joanne along with her husbands mum and dad.
    We were at the Maddison blu hotel ( 5 star ) nothing but the best, as we were coming out lots of activity in fouay press video camerers ect, Making for the door a coach arrived and lots of youths outside very excited. Because I have to walk with a 4 wheel frame I do not just move unless I have to I have always been a little selfish. As I am getting close to the door the people from the coach start to exit the youths outside start jumping as these guy’s dressed in football shirts and shorts come towards me the youths outside start to shout and grab the player for selfi phot’ s.
    I find myself in the middle of the Argentine football squad MESSI ADM ect all walking around me. I rang Joanne and said how did you manage that and thank you very much look forward to next year.

      photek says:

      Ivan out for Cahill and Nasri for Sanchez maybe

    • 23.2

      @Constantine, running any team without Kun or Sanchez these days is difficult, running a team with neither is catastrophic in fpl these days. I would center your next couple of transfers around getting one or both in. Nasri, Ivan, Baines ( depending on injury ) Welbeck could all leave to help you raise money and create space. Eve Pelle after this GW has passed could be an option to ship out depending on whether you fear his fixtures or not.
