FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW17
Oh come all ye faithless…
Welcome to FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW17. Oh dear, we had a bit of a car crash last week, so much so that our score of 51 didn’t even beat the average and our GW rank was sub 4 million. You rather sense things aren’t going to go well when your keeper concedes 5 but can’t even manage a solitary save point. He wasn’t alone in his ineptness though as the rest of our defence got 5 points between them, 3 of our midfielders got 4 between them and even Jesus couldn’t save us as he got 2. Our only bright lights were our new signing Alli with a couple of assists, Jimenez with one of his own and of course Vardy with his usual haul.
All this saw us drop considerably in the ranks and we now sit 68,920th. Someone is going to get a kicking…
Our GW16 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided…
Our GW17 Transfer(s)
Armed with a bank of £3.8m we set about righting the wrongs of last week and two targets were quickly established; Rashford and Abraham. Which one to pick was to be as hotly debated as who was to leave. The obvious candidates being either Jesus or Jimenez. A scenario was put forward which would see us take Abraham this week and retain Jimenez for not only this week (Spurs have been leaky under Jose having conceded 2 or more goals in 5 out of 6 of his games in charge), but also for his game against Norwich next week. And all being well he can then depart for Rashford the following week. It’s wishful thinking that that is how it will all pan out but we like to have a bit of a plan in place regardless. All of which left Jesus out in the cold. At Christmas too… we are heartless. It also now leaves us with £5.4m in the bank, thrifty lot us.
To confirm then we have SOLD Jesus and BOUGHT Tammy Abraham
Captain – Jamie Vardy
This one was unanimous in that “Vardy (C), Tammy (V)” got all 5 votes, without one iota of debate.

Really having bench dilemma……3 spots to be selected from Lunds, Kelly, Puli, KDB, Mousse….not having any strong rational to drop anyone. Kelly and Mousse are in good form. Lunds has gone off the boil, but then its Villa who conceded most shots. Puli has good underlying stats, but not converted at all. KDB faces my team which is leaky to the extreme. Whats your opinion?
Pope
TAA, Soyun — Lunds (AVL H), Kelly (BHA H)
Mane, Maddi, Alli, —- Pulisic (BOU H), KDB (ARS A)
Vardy, Abra, — Mousset (AVL H)
Bench boost?
Holding for DGW
352 with Kelly and Mousset on the bench.
+1
Thanks all….going 352 then…after that its luck.
Hi everyone! Should I live Kelly on the bench? :scratch_one-s_head:
Think I would yeah
I have the same def. and kept the same as in your pic. I assume Kelly will get 2 or 6-8 points whereas Lunds will get 2-anything possible. Lunds has 47% ownership and Kelly 30%. I assume none will bench Lunds. Effectively we will lose 6 points in the worst case.
Just did Tomori-Kelly, but in my case had no choice as otherwise was Dunk or Rico.
Lunds in the only 1 you could think of moving. The rest are dead lock ins for me!
not sure who’s more likely for the cs. But with his midfield position lunds tips it.
Cheers, lads. I was thinking about benching KDB, but just don’t have the guts 😯
Morning
Team for GW17; good to go?
There could be a capo switch just before deadline!
:yes:
Go for mane mitro
Just the lunchtime kick off worries me if he blanks!
His stats v Watford are not bad. He has scored/assisted in every game he played for pool. He scored 4 goals in his last 2 home games against them.
I feel he will be on the scorecard. It’s a good differential capo
Eresh, Mane did score two goals last season against Watford, but didn’t score in 2017/18. Salah scored 4 goals back then.
ur right wanton. meant to say 4 goals in his last 3 at anfield v watford.
these stats below are corret:
Salah has been involved in seven goals in four PL appearances against Watford (6 goals, 1 assist).
Mané has been involved in eight goals in five games against them for the Reds (5G, 3A).
Firmino has been involved in eight in his last six against the Hornets (5G,3A).
either of salah and mane cappo could outscore vardy.
The stats are great, but I’m with Mitro on having capo in the first game of a GW. Then again, I agree with you that it’s a great differential this week. And now, I’m super confused :rofl:
many said that last season when pool played bournemouth on a 1230pm game. salah scored a hatty then 😉
Think I will be going with Mane as capo?
2 free transfers and 1.6mln in the bank.
What do we reckon?
Firmino to Tammy?
Firmino to Tammy or rash?
Jimenez to Tammy this week….next week Firmino to Rashford.
I did Jimenez > Tammy…initially thought of holding Jim for Gw18, but then sold him because of Tammys huge ownership 37%… to reduce the risk.
Looking at moves such as these lads. I’m not sure which yet to go for.
Thanks very much all.
No worries GP. Hope more capo mane like you
Firmino hasn’t scored at Anfield this season.
Oh I know!
He has assisted 4 times though and I’ll be honest, have a blindspot for him. Superb player.
Superb doesn’t translate into FPL points :wink2:
Hence the blindspot!
He’s never far away though.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do :yes:
pope vs ryan…which one for gw 17
Ryan I think
Qualified for the cup! Will now be knocked out by a ghost team! :good:
Hahahahaha very much down to luck at times
My opponent is 3m ranks below but I still think he has a better team than me xD
I didn’t :dash:
whos ur capo zed?
I dare not to say :rofl:
One thing we know Zed that it’s not gonna be Vardy. You declared this a couple of days ago :biggrin:
Yes I did :popcorn:
One year I went out because there were lots of cancelled games due to snow! The one game that went ahead my opponent had a player from!
I have never got past the first round, so it will be amazing to get into the second round.
I am playing against team with rank 5,568,245 on 0 transfers so far.
As always, those are the kind of teams you are losing :no:
