FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW16
Welcome to the FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW16. Following consecutive red arrows in GWs 13 & 14 we managed to claw our way back up the ranks with a final score of 68 in GW15. This comfortably beat the average of 45 and saw us climb back up to 36,483, our best rank of the season so far.
With our defence and keeper returning just 3pts between them we were largely indebted to Captain Kane and Private Fraser who contributed 12pts each (doubled for Kane) with Richarlison not far behind with 10pts. Further solid performances from Jimenez, Sane and a late Salah assist managed to largely negate Arnie’s 0pts!
Last weeks result in full…
Happy with our progress we march on confidently into GW16, but now in search of an Arnie replacement, and with our wildcard still to be used. Could this finally be the week….
This weeks transfer decision(s)
No.
The wildcard lives on, burning a hole in our pockets while at the same time we have taken a hit to remove Salah! There’s logic there somewhere.
Arnie’s (latest) injury and free scoring Arsenal’s fixtures were the caveat for such an extraordinary course of action. Sterling coming in is hardly a bad option, especially as he had a good rest in midweek. Arsenal’s current run of form along with their imminent fixture schedule focuses the mind on them really and hence we made one of their forwards a priority to replace Arnie. We could have simply taken Wilson in but his fixtures turn south whilst Salah’s form is not explosive enough to justify either his price tag or his place instead of Sterling in our team any longer. And so it’s another week and another City mid added, feels like we shall keep on doing this until we have them all!
In truth we would probably have preferred Aubayemang to Lacazette but funds dictated otherwise and with Lacazette likely to return the starting line-up we’re comfortable with the Frenchman. (That could come back to bite us, as could Salah of course c’est la vie).
And so to confirm we have… SOLD SALAH & ARNIE AND BOUGHT STERLING & LACAZETTE
Our Captain is Lacazette
Straight in the team and awarded the armband. Giving a Frenchman this sort of responsibility may be considered reckless, nay insane. But with the Gooners at home to Huddersfield, what could possibly go wrong? Just in case Monsieur Lacazette runs away never to be seen again, Kane is our vice.
Our team in full…

Evening All, if I get rid of martial, I have 8.7m itb.
Who would you get?
The if is the thing. If he’s due back next week (have no idea if he is) then presumably you’re thinking of keeping.
Who’s top of your list?
In your position I’d be looking at the likes of Anderson, Richarlison, Siggy, David Silva. Pretty good choice.
Have been looking at Anderson, seems nailed as has good fixtures.
David Silva or Son, probably.
They’re both who I was thinking, but worried about game time for both.
They should see most games. Anderson would probably be a better bet if you’re looking for maximum game time
Son probably best for potential (and limiting Kane damage).
Anderson safest bet.
BennyB
Son I think would compliment coverage of most of the top teams.
Evening all, I feel like my team is all over the place. Time to wildcard?
You can probably get away without using it if you do Arnie to Mitro and Barkley to Snoddy (either one this week and the other the next, or both this week)
Just read that last GW was the first time in 8 years that every single team scored!
Need suggestions. 1FT and 2.8 in the bank
Arnautovic to Aubameyang and
Hazard to Sane for a -4. Worth it? Or having both Sane and Sterling is a risk?
Think it’s worth kp. They will get u points in the coming weeks
Arnie to Laca
Laca nailed on to start?
Likely to start. Not nailed. Site team went for him.
Hi guys been a while any advice with my team? Some obviously transfers out but not sure which route. Want Kane sterling aub but funds won’t allow. 2 free transfers 0.8 itb
Arnie augero salah out for aubu sterling and Wilson maybe? That work…
Arnie and Aguero to Kane and Laca work? Then Salah to Sterling next week? Not sure you need to hit.
Evening everyone. Looking for a bit of help with my wildcard team. Any advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Looks good! I quite like the Shaq shout, but I think a lot of people may suggest Anderson given he’s nailed, and has form and fixtures on his side. I’d change Kolasinac, given that Arsenal don’t know how to defend.
