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.

  1. Final piece of the WC puzzle:

    Do I risk Aurier with good fixtures or just go for someone who’s nailed like Dunk… Kelly? Cathcart?

  2. Morning all! I hope everyone had a great Christmas! Happy with my team, I’m just not sure whether to play Cantwell ahead of Maddison and Kelly ahead of Tomori? Captain pick is also a bit of a minefield!

  3. Hi guys how doesn’t WC team look?

    • Haha it should read: How does my WC team look?

    • That looks solid Eagle!

    • Eagle

      Looks very good but you will always be benching a potential for good points every week with that strength. If you are OK with that then fine.

    • Looks good I just personally dislike the money on bench

    • Thanks guys. Intentionally made my team this way to have nice bench cover over the Xmas games then will gradually decrease my bench

  4. Hope you all had a good Christmas. Am I good to go? Only real change I was thinking about was Mount to play and Ings on the bench. Any thoughts?

    • It is the only change I would consider if any. I’m not really sure, could go either way. Could also play both and bench Zaha as well mind you.

      Probably better leaving it as is in summary :wacko:

      • +1

      • Thanks for getting back to me. Not long for the deadline so il have a think. :good:

  5. Got a bad feeling about the captain pick. On tammy now, but considering vardy this week too. Made a last minute change to vardy from rash last week when they played city, and it turned out to be the right pick. Is it as likely that Vardy could score against pool as it was against city? His counter attacks can be quite deadly against attacking teams right?

    • Yeah, I’m afraid Tammy starts this one on the bench, think he playes against Arsenal, Batsu could play against easy Soton smile

      • Yeah. The problem with Vardy, who is the safest when it comes to minutes and chances to score is that he plays Liverpool. Even if they only have got 4 cs’s this season, they have only conceded 14 goals, and never more than one goal per match. (I Think)

        • Yeah don’t think he gets a haul, even if he gets one goal it could just be 6pts… Think I’ll cap KDB now smile

        • Allan

          Vardy is and always will be if he plays, a solid captain pick irregardless of opposition.

          This could be one of those weeks where even a one goal captain is a big success.

    • Yeah I dont see Chelsea doing much today. Think they need a bit of a spark. Hopefully Willian will be that but I would cap someone other than Tammy for awhile.

      • Tammy is top on the anytime scoring bookies odds

        • He needs to be on the pitch though for those odds to be correct smile

        • That’s probably a case for any player over the next three game weeks

        • I’d say that’s only because he plays up top on his own but like Zed says he has to play first. I remember a game last season Sturridge was 2nd on the list of anytime goalscorers but he was injured haha

        • Not Vardy. He is like 99.9999% to start if fit.

        • This GW that is…

  6. All set? I feel like I’m taking a few risks with the defence and capo but hoping it’ll pay off.
