FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW10
Welcome to FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW10. Slowly, slowly catchy monkey. Another small green arrow but again it is progress so as ever we shall take it. We managed a relatively acceptable 46 points last week, 3 above the overall average and 4 above that of the top 10k. it meant a rise of about 16k up to 104k overall and leaves us on 555 points.
Truth be told only three of our players managed to get more than three actual points, which whilst disappointing was very representative of the scene across the board. Mendy and Robertson got 18 between then and Captain Kun got his now seemingly customary 1 goal, 12 points and 65 minute appearance! There’s really not a lot else to report on so let’s move onto this week’s meeting and see what (inevitable) skulduggery occurred this time… We had 1FT to play with and a sizeable bank of £2.7m.
Last Week’s Result
This week’s transfer decision…
Whilst we do enjoy a good debate / argument sometimes it’s simply a relief to come to a quick and easy agreement and that’s what happened this week….
With Mo Salah seemingly coming back to life gradually and with Cardiff at home on this weeks menu he seemed the obvious target. Now ok it only seemed like yesterday that we were more than happy to dispense with Mo but we are neither too proud nor too stupid to recognise when a player is turning a corner and likewise that we should U-turn in tandem. And so getting him back was the priority but the how was a bit more difficult, at least without a hit, as the only player we could sell straight for him was Hazard. Which isn’t massively preferable given that he plays a Burnley team who just gave up 5 away at City. The fact that Burnley are at home dilutes that impact somewhat though. Salah having both Cardiff and Fulham at home in 2 of his next 3 does seem like either (*delete as applicable) a no-brainer or a hide behind a big couch thing.
As for the voting we had 3 immediate definites, 1 querying alternatives but at the same time admitting that he was comfortable enough knowing he already owned him and 1 suggesting Vardy to Firmino as another option.
We shall probably look at how to engineer Hazard back in there alongside Salah in the coming weeks but for now we feel that this is our best option, especially as we will almost certainly captain him both this week and against Fulham, as will a good majority of other managers!
To confirm we have SOLD EDEN HAZARD & BOUGHT MO SALAH
The Team In Full…
Our Captain is Mo Salah and our Vice-Captain is Jamie Vardy
We would repeat what we said two weeks back when we bought Kane with the intention of captaining him against Cardiff at home but we don’t want to curse this one too!
Should Salah fail to appear for some reason then Jamie Vardy will be our trump card.*

*Disclaimer. And yes we did indeed simply pick Vardy as our Vice-Captain so that we could shoehorn that stinker of a line in there! (It was a split vote at the time of going to press and that was the tiebreaker).

Morning
1ft but 0 ITB
Ive a few issues – not having Salah, Moura needing to be moved on etc.
What would people recommend
Hazard to salah and Moura to a 5.5m for a hit
Or
Hazard to salah and Kane to Aubameyang for a hit
Not knowing the full picture, I would go the second option of those two.
Why get rid of Haz when he faces Burnley? Are you sure he wont play?
Would not get rid of Hazard. Anyone else you could move out?
Good morning, I got 2ft and .6 in the bank.
Was thinking of taking Rich out and bringing Pereyra playing 3 5 2.
Then next week mitro out and Arnie in
Thoughts please?
Sounds good to me
Thanks FF247 team, I can see the logic in that transfer. Given you got Hazard in GW8 you only need to find 0.1m to get him back in. For those who got him earlier than that (like myself) it would be tricky getting rid then bringing back in.
What do you guys think about this?:
Kane to Vardy and Taylor to Robertson with 2FT. I then play Rob/TAA/Doherty this gw. If TAA doesnt play Bennett comes in. Next gw I do TAA to Mendy.
Vardy has been suffering with sickness all week so I would not be bringing him in
Agree with Smash here. I like the other moves though…
Morning! Think I’m torn between these moves. I have 0.5 in the bank and two free transfers.
A) Salah and Success in for Kane and Hojbjerg. Prob play Success over Richarlson.
B) Salah, Arnie and Luiz in for Fraser, Kane and Alonso (-4).
I much prefer option A.
I’d prefer A because it’s free, don’t like the hit there, although having said that I like Arnie over Fraser long-term easily! So I can see why you’re torn
If you think Luiz will match Alonso (or at least not be outscored by Alonso too much), I’d really be tempted to bet on -4 and Arnie in the long-term, Arnie has great fixtures!
Don’t know whether this helps 😆
Pretty much nailed my problem there Zed. I do still have a wildcard which is why I might be leaning towards A
Yeah, if you still have WC then don’t take a hit!
Spanner in the works here Smash but I prefer B.
I think this short term hit can easily be repaid with performances from Salah and Arnautovic in the coming weeks. Alonso to Luiz is hardly end of world stuff really.
If you go the other way then I would be playing Richarlison instead of Success definitely. Can’t see any sound reasoning to use Success.
I could still do that GP. Really am 50/50 currently on it. I’m also a bit sceptical whether Fraser might get dropped soon
I think he is an important player for Bournemouth so I’m not sure on that but I do think that no Bournemouth player can be relied on to produce consistent points with the fixtures ahead they face so that would be my reasoning on moving him on.
Why do you interest success ?
Option A is ok because not -4.
Arsenal fan:
Yes Ozil or Nozil ?
I have no other arsenal players.
He’s an awkward price so it depends on your team. Certainly in form but I don’t think fixtures are quite as simple
Nozil for me, for reasons Smash just said!
Much prefer one of their strikers webstar.
Nozil
