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.

Play Maddison or Mount here? Player vs fixture.
Mount scored one against soton last time. Maddison is better and liverpools defence ain’t rock solid these days….
These are uncertain times. Both sound reasonable but probably opt for playing Mount. I think he was one of the lynch pins of Che attack the other day.
+1, Southampton don’t do clean sheets
. (Famous last words! :slaphead: )
Think I’d play Mount but no idea really
Thanks guys! I’m thinking mount, at least for the moment.
Merry Xmas!
Hey Merry 25th December everyone. Sent a message last night but the site team article had apparently already started so I guess nobody saw my greetings. And as Initt mentioned, wherever you come from, whatever your beliefs (or lack thereof), whoever you support, let’s all be welcomed by and support this great little community of like-minded contributors, endeavoring to find ways to green arrows and having contact with people from all walks of life in doing so! Hasta Pronto amigos!
All the best to you AJW
Thanks Caz – have a great time today!
Merry Christmas mate
Yeah you too mate. Hope you and family are safe with this apocalyptic disaster going on down there. 5m ha of this beautiful country gone up in flames – a real tragedy man. What have we done? Some of the people I know, family and friends, have been touched but are safe, but we can all grieve for this event. Feel so helpless over here. The real positive point is that Australians have banded together and found each other again. All my best wishes to you B.B. Hope 2020 starts a positive cycle especially Down under. Kindest regards mate.
Merry Xmas AJW. Have a great FPL year ahead sir
Thanks Constantine – you too! How’s India? Have great memories of traveling there many years ago.
@AJW,India is OKish. Going through some internal turmoils. It’s very difficult sometimes when you have such a heterogeneous union. But, we are used to it.
Weather-wise it’s cold in Delhi and northern part but warm in other places. Too busy and crowded I must say as New Year is up ahead. It’s a very important time of the year for business. BTW, which places did you visit?
I don’t think you had asked for this kind of an answer, but there you have it.
Hey Constantine – this answer fits perfectly with what I would expect from an intelligent person! India is such a great a diverse place that it’s impossible to generalize. I saw large parts of the country from Kolkata to Rajasthan, Mumbai, Delhi, down to the south to Trivandrum and Bangalore
and even the holy city of Varanassi. Wonderful country. Read Arundhati Roy’s ‘The Ministry of Utmost Happiness’ this year, which gives you a surprisingly apt overview of things in a different and poetic manner. Anyway enjoy your end of year break! Cheerio and good luck in FPL and life in general!
Merry christmas everyone!
