FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW19
Going around in circles…
Welcome to FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW19. We are beginning to think one of us ran over a black cat recently, and declined to declare it. In case you missed it we sold Cantwell last week and brought Son. In a word then… d’oh!
As well as that particular 11 point swing in the wrong direction we lost poor John McGinn early doors, to add to having already lost Tyrone Mings the week before. And suddenly our best laid plans are starting to to look a bit tattered. Elsewhere Pope and Lundstram brought us welcome relief with a clean sheet apiece, and Vardy and Jimenez got us a couple of goals. But that was all and so we ended up with a disappointing 37 points and yet another red arrow as we now slide down to 110,841st.
Our GW18 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided…
Our GW19 Transfer(s)
Which, which, which…
We had 1 free transfer and nothing in the bank with which to fix the above mess so we had to get a bit creative. The first suggestion being that we simply bring Cantwell back in, for McGinn. Which felt like going around in circles, chasing points that we’d just voluntarily thrown away. Which is when the creativity kicked in because this opened up the discussion of future moves and the possibility of (finally) getting KDB in next week. Which lead us nicely onto selling Son to raise funds and we quickly came to the conclusion that if we sold him this week for Grealish then next week we could afford KDB for Zaha.
It’s bang on the money that one though so we need to either watch the price rises closely and go early or simply accept that it isn’t to be and be consoled with Zaha facing up to Saints instead.
To confirm then we have SOLD Son and BOUGHT Jack Grealish
Captain – Tammy Abraham
This was hardly conclusive and mutiny was threatened, toys were thrown but anarchy was avoided….we think. It went like this – we had four different suggestions and a no-show. Mane, Alli, Lundstram and Tammy were all put forward before the Lundstram backer (you can likely guess who that was) succumbed to appease the Tammy supporter. On current form, Tammy will emerge as a late substitute as Lundstram grabs another haul.

Morning guys, hope you all had a great day.
Does my team look ok?
Yep looks strong
Yip, looks good to me.
Nice team! Rashford captain?
looks gtg, impressive squad and value! :good:
In a last minute moment of panic I set aside common sense and took a hit to get in Sterling, Martial and Dunk for Mane, TAA and Mount…
Now I dread not having a Mane/Salah onboard.
Can do Sterling -> Mane/Salah ofc, but do you see a way of keeping LdB, Sterling and getting either Mane/Salah?
Sterling to Salah if you can manage that.
Thanks GP, I can.
For reasons unknown I want to keep the lad though :scratch_one-s_head:
Was thinking to rid myself of Rash+Martial for Salah+Maupay. Too silly?
Would that be for another hit?
Aye, or maybe I could wait to later tonight actually.
My concern is being priced out on rises for Salah/Mane.
Go for what feels right then. I don’t think ditching both United players for a hit when you can get Salah in for free whilst retaining City coverage is the way to go.
I actually think you are in a very enviable position (getting Salah in for free this week I mean).
Thanks GP, think I’ll hold for after deadline actually
Morning all! A very Merry Christmas to you all!!
GTG? Abraham as cap? Hanley is in as Soy is facing Liverpool….
Looks GTG
I’m not sure if Hanley starts, but would probably prefer Dunk to take his spot from the bench over Soy
Cheers! Good call. I don’t think either will get a CS but Dunk could grab a goal, you never know!
Not without taking a massive hit. Think you’ll just have to lose 1 of the Citeh boys.
Oooops ! This is a reply to Sarri.
Sorry, Sarris comment popped up, its for oddball.
:girl_pinkglassesf:
Was thinking of taking out Martial and Rash for Salah and Maupay (yet another hit I know… :slaphead
Don’t forget folks. After gw 19 is complete, the top 64 in the Regulars league enter a cup competition. Click on Regulars league in the hot topics below to see how the cup works. Good luck to all.
WC Active.
Would you do any changes?
Will switch Norris to Button.
Not sold on William, he’ll blow hot and then very cold, chasing last weeks points imo
Thinking of giving him this GW with a good fixture. Other options?
Maddison
Aurier out. There was something about Mourinho having a go at him about giving a goal away. Could he been dropped ?
Yep, that is a big possibility.
