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.

Merry Christmas to all! It’s a sunny 44 degree day here in sunny Queensland, Australia!

That’s just odd. Something I can’t grasp at all.
We’ve had a white Christmas in Scotland I think twice in my lifetime – every other time it just rains or is already damp.
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
…. and Merry Christmas makeya.

When I was a child every Christmas was a white Christmas, but these days it’s around 50/50, this year it was so called Scottish Christmas in Finland, rainy and damp, haha
The earth is getting warmer and it really shows here in southern Finland….
But yeah, I can’t graps 44 degrees during Christmas, if there is no snow I don’t feel Christmas at all to be frank
IvanTheTerrible
The same here. I am in Bulgaria at the moment and white Christmas is now a distant memory. Anyhow, it has arrived here already but for everyone else
A very merry Christmas!!!!
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Merry Christmas Ivan!
I think everyone has a vision of Christmas being snowy. Becoming more and more unrealistic sadly.
IvanTheTerrible
True, the climate change is becoming more and more upon us but is only us to blame for it.
Happy Christmas mate!!

Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Could you just leave it for a week and let Soyuncu come in?
If you want to make a transfer then I’d probably go Kelly.
Smash
Think I’d go Kelly here. I’m tempted by Holgate myself I must admit it’s whether he can keep his place
The B
Get Kelly
Terminator
Read the initials and HV A Merry Xmas FPL
*I found this on Reddit.
MrMajeika
Haha merry Christmas to you. Not a bad team for differentials!
MrMajeika
Who would you bring in for son for this gw. Using my wc after this gw. Salah/mane/sterling/pogba/martial.
Smash
Probably Salah still even though it’s not the best fixture. Presume you have Alli
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Think I’d take Salah too then keep him on my wildcard.
MrMajeika
Yeah I have Alli. Thinking Salah too
Albinz
WC Active.
What would you do?
Albinz
This is one of my ideas.
inittowinit
I liked your 1st one better
FplDoc789
I’d stay away from Martial. Still don’t know which direction United is heading.
If you must have a United player, I’d up Tammy to Rashford and get Grealish for Martial
Smash
First one for sure
AllanBrallan
First one. But if you are going for Ryan you should have Button as your second keeper…
Smash
+1

Happy Christmas one and all. Whatever that means to you. I appreciate we have a very diverse and wide reaching community on here and so it’s a different thing for many. Matters not though, personally I’m not religious in the slightest but it’s a special time of year in terms of family for me.
It’ll mean something different for everyone, but it’s a nice time to stop and say thanks. And for me that just means saying thanks to everyone on here who has supported FF247 again this year. Every comment / read/ retweet / whatever is appreciated as that is what keeps us going.
All the best everyone :friends: #FF247Community
