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.

What would you do with this lot guys?
1 FT and 0.3 itb
Sell Son anyway. I’d probably replace him with Grealish or Zaha and then upgrade your defence.
+1, just sort Son for GW19, don’t take a 4ph.
Thinking the same Atlas.
I’m looking to bring in TAA next week.
That means a sub 7.5 mil midfielder this week for Son.
Any thoughts on possible options ?
You could go for: Grealish, Willian, Zaha, Mount, Cantwell, Moura. Quite a few possibilities. Matt’s ideas above are good
.
Thanks Matt.
Grealish/ Zaha/ Richarlison for the immediate long term ?
Happy Christmas to one and all! https://youtu.be/j9jbdgZidu8
Knew it was that before I clicked the link.
I think I’ve posted it on Christmas Eve for the past number of years!
I notice things Kop
That’s a proper song!
Merry Christmas mate and everyone else!
Merry Christmas to you all! :drinks:
(And great song!)
Which two defenders would you pick out of this lot?
Rico, Dunk, Kabasele, Targett, Sidibe, Baldock or one of the other Sheffield defenders (Not Lundstram)
Baldock and Kabaselei think. I fancy Watford to do ok in upcoming games. Sidibe is ok but always wary of Coleman there
Rico and Baldock. Rico’s fixtures get better soon and Baldock has Lord Lundstram as a team mate
.
Cheers lads. Baldock is definitely the one I’m thinking of bringing in and then I’m torn between Rico and Kabasele.
Still don’t know who to captain of Rash, Tammy, KDB, Alli?
Who are you guys going with?
Mane for me.
Of those I think Abraham.
I’m actually going with Lucas Moura! #needamiracle
Out of those I’d go with Alli or Tammy.
Spurs’ attackers are decent options for the next three GWs. Going with Kane myself despite his blank against Chelsea.
Tammy (my other options are Alli, Vardy, Sterling and Jesus); Southampton have only 1 CS in the last 13 games.
Hey friends. First of all, Merry Christmas to all of you and your families. Wish you all the success in both FPL and your personal lives. May the gift of green arrows shower upon us
.
Now, same move done here as well. Son to Grealish. The difference is, I didn’t give as much thought into it. Although, I saved 0.2m with that move and luckily, it didn’t bite me in the arse as Son’s appeal has been rejected.
Anyways, this is my current team. Have one FT and 4.1m itb. Planning to get a Watford def in for Doherty and do Zaha to Salah next week. Want to go Mane + Salah as can’t see lose points from either of them. Salah’s price is also cheap enough(relatively). What do you guys think? Cheers all.
Those plans sound good to me Constant and a Merry Christmas to you too mate!
Cheers Matt. That’d make my defence very thin, but we don’t have many points in the top players this season anyways.
Really considering Otamendi/Mendy considering City’s fixtures, but that’ll make Salah move impossible.
Thanks loud atlas for the reply.
My original free hit squad had the cheapest players possible.
The team I have picked left me with £0.4m itb.
Decided to use the £0.4m to upgrade bench players to at least a couple of players who actually play just incase of rotation on the starting 11.
Had gazzanigga but after his blunder against chelsea decided to change him just incase Jose dropped him.
Tried to pick players on the whole at home with a decent chance of a clean sheet which Burnley and Bournemouth may not obtain.
Merry Christmas mate and to the whole fpl247 community.
Is there any members who are actually celebrating Christmas day yet due to time zone differences to the UK?
