FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW15
Welcome to the FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW15. Hmmm, we don’t quite know what to make of that past week. 9 of our 11 posted some sort of return, albeit a modest one. Patricio and Richarlison aside every other player scored 5 or above, which is usually a good sign. The problem was that only one of those actually broke the six point barrier and that was Doherty… with 7. We didn’t even get to see our captain play as Kun took the day off, as did our vice-captain Salah, in an ironically different fashion. All in all then we landed on 55 points which was 6 above the average but still meant a minor red arrow for us as we fell 2k in the overall rankings to 60,606th. Last weeks transfer of Sane in for Lucas Moura was looking promising until FPL Towers deemed his ‘first assist’ not to be one, despite all evidence to the contrary. His shot was downgraded to a ‘cross/pass’. Pass. Idiots.
Anyhow, onwards and upwards, two weeks ago we promised you a Hazard transfer and ultimately decided against it. Last week we promised you a Kane transfer…. Let’s go see how close we came to keeping our word this time!
Last weeks result in full…
This weeks transfer decision(s)
For once we are actually going to push through and do what we said we would. No drama or excitement this week, a simple vote with a clear outcome sees Kane come in for Aguero. For what it’s worth Aubameyang did garner one vote as an alternative but the majority felt that Kane at home against Southampton was too good an opportunity to pass up, although we’ve all been here before with Kane in the recent past haven’t we?! The decision itself was dealt a small blow this morning once it was announced that Saints are now sans the ball and chain that is Mark Hughes.
We detailed our Kun to Kane justification last week and that all still stands so we won’t repeat ourselves. Well ok, we will, literally – “It’s long been told that Spurs’ fixtures turn for the better come GW15 and this does indeed seem to be the case with Southampton (H), Leicester (A) and Burnley (H) as their next 3 after this weekend as well as then facing Bournemouth and Wolves at home and Cardiff away over the Christmas period. But how on earth can we afford a 2nd premium striker without killing half of our midfield and 2 of our defenders? Truth is we probably can’t and so we need a sacrificial lamb and that comes in the shape of Aguero for us (*gulp). When we delve into his fixtures versus the Kane ones above we see that he has Watford and Chelsea away after this week followed by a potentially challenging Everton tie, albeit at home. Kun has been a bit ‘meh’ away from home whereas we can see Kane being captaincy material in a good few of his games”. Plus he’s potentially injured. Farewell for a bit Sergio…
To confirm then we have… SOLD: AGUERO & BOUGHT: KANE
Our Captain is Harry Kane
Little surprise here then with the strength of fixture and Kane has returned in his last four games now, and none of them were quite as ‘easy’ as Southampton at home. Fool me once and all that…
Salah gets our Vice band if the unthinkable happens and Kane is rested.
Our team in full…

Cheers Kop. Best of luck this midweek. Hope to see you climb up there el ef cee ladder. Our points are not that far off.
Hi guys, looking for some advice please.
I have 1FT and 1.2m in the bank.
I still have my WC.
I was thinking of Neves to Fraser for this game week, is this a decent move?
Is there any other transfers I should be considering?
Thanks
Seems perfectly sensible to me smithy.
Init, yeah I think I will hold off on the WC with all the uncertainty around several players. I’m still holding out for a Walcott goal!
I would have said Anderson but I think he’s out your price range. With that in mind, if you just want to make the one transfer, Fraser looks like your best bet.
Swirly, with Neves being suspended I am looking at transferring him out to try to field 11 so I would be short.
Hey guys.Any news on Mane yet??Thinking of bringing in Son for Mane for a hit.Have 0FT and nothing itb.Still have WC left.
Klopp said it’s a bad cut and that he’s in flip-flops and had the game been tonight he wouldn’t play so doesn’t sound great.
WC team….good to go?
Looks very nice to me for the Christmas rotation period!!
Only real question mark there would be whether you actually need Alisson? Looking at West Ham’s run you could argue not and probably save a fair bit on a replacement.
Nice team. Gotta get Wilson on there for this week certainly…not sure for who though!
Thank you for the input guys.
Based on the fact that I have chosen sane over sterling I’m predicting sane to be rested and sterling to start. Partly because he is in such good form so pep might want him on and also partly due to the fact that my main rival has sterling and has been closing the gap rapidly!
Hi everyone,
With £18.5m, which two of the five mids below would you get?:
1. Son (£8.3m)
2. Sane (£9.4m)
3. Alli (£8.9m)
4. Eriksen (£9.2m)
5. Dilva (£8.7m)
Of those two, which one would you get this week and which the next?
Cheers muchly – I really can’t choose!
Erik and Sane.
Can’t afford that, unfortunately – would be £0.1m out
Nice work Init
Probably Alli then Sane, although rumours Alli might not start tomorrow!
Oh really? Cheers AT – if not heard those. Do you still reckon I do Alli this week and then Sane the next even with those rumours?
Sorry, I appreciate guessing managerial rotation is next to impossible!
When I say rumours, I mean some fans on twitter! There really is nothing concrete.
They seem concerned that he looked tired against Arsenal so best to rest him now.
Thing is, Sane could well get rested tonight too!
I really don’t know, mate. Either way you go, the other will get rested 😆
Haha, don’t you know it?! Cheers anyway, mate
Erik and Dilva would by best guess at both starting this gameweek and next
Cheers AT, I’ve just brought Dilva in
Uh oh. I’ll be AFK for a while 😉
😉
Such great insight!
Son & Sane
Eriksen and dilva would be my choice. Both season keepers most likely
