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 Xmas all!! Thank you for all your help this year. Been great chatting to you all.
Got a feeling for Salah C you know…
Richarlison/Grealish, Zaha or Moura ?
Anyone ?
Already have Alli from Spurs, apprehensive about Richarlison and Grealish on 4 yellows. Anybody else thinking twice about them ?
Probably Grealish. Is it just the one game he needs to get through now
Yes, the cut off is after 19 games.
Merry Christmas to all my fellow FPL managers. I hope today you spending the day with all your loved ones. Nothing having the best of seasons. I languished at 1.5 million in the world. This week I am struggling to who to captain between Salah, KDB, Rashford, Ali, and Vardy.
Merry Christmas everyone and thanks for all the help and support over the year. This really is a special community.
Merry Christmas to all.
Spending a vacation in Vienna and around with not much time for FPL for a change. Still posting a question…is it advisable to go without pool attacker?
No FT left…4.6m ITB…can do Maddi to Salah/Mane for a hit.
Pope — 4m
Taa, Lund, Kelly — Soyun, Rico
Kdb, Alli, Maddi, Greal — Dendo
Rashf, Vardy, Tammy
I don’t think it’s advisable to go without Mane/Salah, best players in the game (bar Vardy)!
Thought of Maddi to salah [and capo him].
Might get away with it this week but you will want one of them long term
Merry Christmas to one and all! WC activated. Which combo is better?
1. TAA, Kane, Dendoncker
2. Digne, Abraham, Richarlison
Trying to do something different to get ahead of the pack. Seems like I always buy players after a good week(s) so why not have them before they haul? Therefore I’m leaning towards 2. What you all think?
