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.

Am I good to go? Have 1 FT 1.7 mib. Salah to Son next week. Maybe TAA to Ota. (Pope in goal)
Trying to avoid a hit.
Stick to this team. Your mids are solid. Heavy on Leicester attack, but Leicester will have an edge naturally.
I would get Salah now.
My hits have not worked out this season so not so keen. He also has recently played 120 mins. May bite me in the bum.
Thanks Carolyn
Sorry I thought you had a ft, that’s why I said do it, but no not for a hit.
Good luck

This is a reply to The B #6.
You bottomed my post. I guess you really are a monster then.
Ok yeah I was in THAT contingent.sigh..so…son to Alli or mane?
And have a safe and happy crimbles everybody..peace..! :good:
P.s. the bench..I know I know..
Got to be Mane for me.
Happy Christmas to you
All the best to you too..lm leaning mane!
+1
Arrange your team properly then ask again.
He’s asked about the Son transfer, not who else to play in general. :good2:
Evening folks, got 2fts + 3.6mill itb. Any ideas on what to do folks ?
Alli to Salah?
Things that pop into my head are
Jesus to Kane or
Luiz to Grealish/Maddison
Peter’s/Rico to Kelly
Can also do Zaha to Grealish or Jesus to Tammy.
Thanks peeps, something to ponder over the course of xmas day. Happy xmas to all.
0FT 3.6m
I did Son – Grealish
Thinking of some hits for Maddison – Ali
Rashford – Tammy 40 points clear in my mini league.
Thanks
Nah. Stick.
Thanks just need to decide on my captain probably KDB
With son, Cahill and doucoure all red flagged and my three Leicester players (Evans, soyuncu and vardy) at home to my two liverpool players (virgil and mane) then I have pressed the free hit chip.
I will no doubt regret this later in the season when the fa cup coincides with a game week but needs must.
I now have nine at home and two away with a couple of regular playing bench warmers.
Kepa
Lindelof, lundstram, toby
Kdb, grealish, mane, Willian
Rashford, kane, tammy
McGovern, dendonker, kiko and Reid.
Jamie
Bold move, Jamie! Most of us will probably use the Free Hit, as you say, further on down the line, but y’know, why not play it now? Especially if your team is looking a little awkward for this week. For a one off-week, that’s a good squad!
Just a thing to ponder, why not go the dirtiest of dirt-cheap for your bench and put as much money (and nailed-on starters) on the pitch as possible? Heck, pick someone who doesn’t even play for one spot on your bench (a 3.9m DEF – or is that your Reid?). I’d also downgrade Kepa to a cheapo
(Ramsdale/Pope) and use the saved £1m elsewhere.
Good luck and Merry Christmas!
