Fantasy Football The FF247 Community Team – We go again
It was around this time twelve months ago that another team joined the 3 million-strong throng of Fantasy Football Teams vying for the crown of overall world champion. Except in this case it would be “champions” as this team was a little different. You were in it. And you. You, too. I was as well. The FF247 Community Team (founded 2015) was born, and indeed borne out of a curiosity of a few regulars who wondered if we could have a fantasy team representing all you good good people. Let’s embrace what we did last year, with an overall respectable final rank of 100,193 and see if we can improve on that the second time around.
For those new to this concept, your management team of myself, elleffcee and NZ Alex will guide you via comments on our dedicated article which sits on the tab at the top of the FF247 homepage. These comments will advise you when we are looking for your interaction, namely to let us know how you think we should manage the Community Team. Once our original squad has been selected (more of that soon), we need you to advise us how many transfers we should make, who should be transferred out, in and how we should line up for the forthcoming gameweek and also who will wear our captain’s armband for double points.
All our voting is based on a first past the post system – most votes wins. Simple.
The initial squad selection last season was a little laborious so we have decided to streamline this for this season. We will soon open voting where we will ask you to vote for your desired players by each position (hopefully getting a nice mixture of top-end and budget players . . . . or not?) and then the management team will construct the squad based upon your most popular two or three players per position and then by budget as we work our way through the positions.
The management team have our own individual teams so we are not one bit interested in manipulating the Community Team to turn it in to some second team of ours. You will get what you vote for.
We received some positive feedback on this venture last year so we feel we owe it to you all to have another go and we just hope you support us once more.
To the 2016/17 season then. Shall we?

* FF247 COMMUNITY TEAM TRANSFER *
In this very short period between Everton’s win at Sunderland on Monday and Chelsea and Liverpool facing off tomorrow night, we asked up to vote for our transfers and you have done.
The favourite move as ratified, is Pape Souare leaving our team after his non-football related injury (may he recover well soon) for Kyle Walker of Tottenham Hotspur.
Now our squad looks like this:
The team probably picks itself now.
Who should we captain though? Leave your answers below please.

Tough call on WC. Think so, but not sure. As earlier, I’d just note that FFFix reports that the top 50, for years gone by, went WC in gw2. Mind, the Ibra/Aguero thing changes the dynamics a bit.
Did the exercise, and I believe I got the maths right, with a minor surplus.
Thank you KI
Yeah it’s a close one so far.
You need Aguero and to get him back without WC would cost 8pts. Also I think Ibra could go and you can then beef up MF. SO with Lukaku and Benteke added to Forwards and then KdB, Firmino and Antonio Cazorla etc etc !!
