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…

Good morning lads, the big question for me is the captain this week. If you had Kane and Kun and no Salah, who would you captain this week? All thoughts aprriciated.Have a nice gw everyone!!!!
im going with Kane
Heya, am I good to go? 0FT 5 mil itb.
Looks good i think
Cheers. Good luck mate!
its good to go. nice ur taking the captain on salah. thinking between him, kane and sterling.
Thanks. Just thought Kane might troll ppl again this week lol
Looks good. Strong all over
Thanks mate. I’ve been clean for last few weeks (no hits). I’m still pondering about the Firmino to Kun move for a hit. What do u think?
I’m just not convinced enough by Kun could not bring myself to do it. Mainly because Jesus is back soon as well. Firmino has more points and also has a decent fixture.
I guess it’s good to cover man city in mid if I’m not gettin Kun
That’s what I’m trying to do with Silva but a bit more risky
They did missed him last week and he’s good value as well.
Nice coys
Is that £0.5M or £5M in the bank?
It’s really 5mil. Supposed to get Kun in for Firmino. But the number of ppl getting Firmino in makes me nervous to lose him.
Richarlison to KDB would be nice with that cash.
GP is on fire this morning I’m agreeing with everything
Sounds like a good option. That would leave me with 0.9 to do Son to probably Mahrez next week. Btw no love for Sane?
Sounds like a plan there. I know it’s unlikely but you would not be surprised to see Sane at LB with those 2 home games with Pep
BRought in KDB. Feels better. Good luck GP, Smash!!
good one that! 100% captaincy for salah over kane?
Last minute changes from advice on here.
I did have Karius and Cresswell … Good to go?
Oops I meant I swapped out them for Pickford and Shaw.
This is my WC differential team so no Kane
Hi lads!
All the best for the week! Going on abit it a gamble by captaining Mahrez!
Any thoughts?
Good shout!
Brave Mahrez is on fire though
That’s a bit of an under-the-radar captain choice.
And I love it!
morning all
would you play Masaku (home to Bournmouth) or Richarlison (away to Leicester) this gw?
Richarlison
Richarlson
cheers lads
This is me then.
Good luck all.
Big points due there AT.
Looks well placed at least.
good captaincy pick there AT. Went with Salah as well.
Let’s hope he can do the business, as per!
indeed. your also good for the BGW later next month. enough cover as well. probably can do a sterling to a mahrez on gw28
This is one of my options. Also hoping Wally shows good signs from the off!
i have a feeling wally will make this everton side boost. got sterling and kdb in my midfield. may go with a spurs midifielder and bring firmino back.
Cheers, GP. Guaranteed to be a sh*t-show then!
