FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team Gameweek 24
Welcome to the FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team Gameweek 24. Hmmm… A 4th consecutive red arrow. Our worst run of the season. Crap. This is all despite picking up 66pts which was actually 8pts better than the average. It’s tough at the top. Although we’re not anywhere near the top! We’ve dropped outside the top 250k.
Last week’s transfers didn’t quite go to plan. Jesse picked up a rather pathetic 2pts while despite the Liverpool v City game being a 7 goal thriller, Aguero registered just 5pts. However, Kun does face Newcastle this week so he will have the opportunity to make up for it.
Elsewhere, our defence racked up a pitiful 5pts. Our star performer was Arnautovic with 16pts. Salah did what Salah does. And Harry delivered as our captain.
But that’s enough woe for one week… onto this week’s comeback!!
Last weeks result…
This weeks transfer…
We had 1 FT and £0.4m in the bank. After this weeks votes were cast we now have 2 FT’s and £0.4m in the bank for next week! You were warned it was going to be a boring article on the previous chats and we always aim to deliver!
It just lands like this sometimes and we are but normal fantasy managers after all and we aren’t going to make transfers just for the sake it and certainly not just to make an article more ‘interesting’. We play it for real, just as you do, and so if it makes sense to save, then we save.
Looking at our team the keeper slot is actually the only real weak spot this week, but even then the only real alternative was to bring in Pickford for Begovic and there’s no guarantee that works out, plus the other two were picked specifically because they rotate nicely. Apart from this week!
The team in full
Our captain is Mo Salah
And we own Kane and Aguero…
Ok, so maybe not as boring as we made out then.
To say this was split and close would probably be an understatement.
This is how we roll – 5 people vote. Each votes on a Captain and a Vice-Captain.
Out of 10 such votes there were, as you’d expect, only 3 candidates and they got in total-
Salah – 4 votes
Kane – 4 votes
Kun – 2 votes
Crucially Salah got 3 Captain ones, to Kun’s 2 and Kane surprisingly got zero. Kane was the most picked Vice (4 times).
It’s probably a similarly close decision to that which many will make a last minute call on before the deadline. There are stats aplenty, and many have been quoted on site last night and in the articles prior to this, to suggest which one is the best pick. That’s not our job, our Captain Picks article is there for that. Our job is simply to tell you what our panel of 5 landed on after their guts were asked how they were feeling. They felt Mo Salah…

I hope they didn’t also felt like Salah is feeling at the moment!
Nice team there that should be fine this week.
Hey guys, just a heads up to change and save your captain/vice if you haven’t as it’s still showing Kane/Lingard from last GW in the picture you posted!
OOOOPs! Thanks mate, I always forget those little crucial bits on this one!
Now watch how Kane bags a hattie and Kun goes missing in action :hippo: !!
That’d be perfect!
From a personal POV
Red, you still around? What should I do????
I’ve done Eriksen -> Salah already and I was set on saving the other ft. Been itching to take a punt of GroB -> Ox (and still really want to). Suddenly Courtois looks unlikely to feature. Options:
1. Save
2. Court -> Ederson
3. GroB -> Ox
Or anyone else who is still around…
Courtois to Ederson is not possible,unfortunately (you already have 3 City players 😉 )…
If he is deffo out,I would use the FT and swap him for Pickford or Schmeichel…
Hope this helps.
That’s a +1 on Pickford from me too, Pancho. He’s my keeper as well and Big Sam just basically said he’s going to shut up shop after they shipped 4 goals last week. Added bonus is I think Everton should be playing in most if not all the blank weeks, so hopefully you won’t be scrambling for a keeper again.
Oh, and my smart ass joke answer is ask your 3 year old what to do!!
Riiiighhhht… nice spot HL
Looks like Pickford for me!
And my 3 yo is already in bed Red, so no dice on asking the brains of the operation!
Pancho
How about Courtois to DDG?
I can’t reach him GP, otherwise that would be an easy one…
Couldn’t that cause even more problems with his likelihood of blanks in 28, 31, and probably 35. Wouldn’t really wanna be making too many goalkeeper moves at this point in the season.
I’ve just realised his purchase price. That caught me out. I’ve had him since the start I think.
Pickford then for me.
Well, all set now. I took a -4 and just went for GroB -> Ox and got Pickford. Loads of potential this GW as everyone plays weak opposition!
Zanka or Zimmer?
Or Wimmer or ….??? ….
:big-lol:
Stoke looked decent against United, I would expect them to score, atleast for their new manager ?
😉
All set for this GW? 1ft. Thinking ill save that one.
All sensible B.
Yeah B, nothing wrong here! Maybe Adrian? Don’t think either will keep a CS though. GTG
Morning guys anyone about feel like I should be playing Albrighton but who should I take out ?????
Morning probably Masuaku
+1 for Masuaku on the bench
Cheers guys & good luck this GW
