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…

Smash,
Thanks for all these team news updates today pal.
You’re a credit to the site man.
Who’s the best Mane replacement then please people?
Or roll the FT and hope for the best?!
Sane?
I wouldn’t worry about rolling if you really fancy it as you have plenty cover on the bench.
Yea Sane or Eriksen seem the obvious choices. Looking at Liverpool’s fixtures I might move him on anyway.
I like Sane just think it might be Mahrez and Sterling this week but god knows it’s Pep
Can you tell me your guys opinion on my squad?
I’m considering Richarlison and Jimenes over Felipe/Moura and Chicharito, maybe.
I’m starting from today, for the Cup, so unlimited transfers are available.
Also, if you have any other suggestions, feel free to contribute.
Thanks.
I would do Richalison for Felipe there. Chicharito is OK.
Team looks good. You have to have a certain OR rank to be entered into the cup so if you’ve made a team just for that it probably won’t be entered.
I think it is Gameweek 17 rank AK.
I’m torn between Chicharito and Jimenez on one side and Lucas and Rihcarlison on the other :/
Is it definite that Martial won’t start?
Thank you.
It’s not set in stone at all. Personally I think bench as it’s a muscle injury
Thanks Smash. Thought I may have missed something. All the best this week!
Its FPL. Nothing is definite. You should know that. Is this your first season?
Hey gang, pick 1 for the next 3-4 weeks. Fraser or Snodgrass? (already have Wilson)
Snodgrass for me
Next 3 is rather different than next 4, next 3 I’d say Fraser, next 4 Snoddy, although Snoddy is on 5 yellows, could be Fraser plays one more game than Snoddy does during the next 3 or 4…
Didn’t consider the yellows, your right Zed. Fraser might be a better way vto go
Cheers fellas. FPL has Snoddy with 6 yellows and it looks like he served his ban gw13 vs City. If that’s the case I may take a punt on him so I can upgrade another mid next week.
Just checking, am I good to go?
Not sure on my C just yet .
Got 0 ft and only 0.7 in the bank
Yeah, I like it! It’s either Kane or Salah C for you I think, Kane has an amazing record against Leicester…
Yes I have switched between them like 10 times today :p
Yeah look back at the chart Swirly (I think?) posted with Kane’s numbers vs Lei. Might sway it for you.
Cappo article. Page 9, post 51.
Thanks colriles, will check that out right away
Yeah I like it
