FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW19
Welcome to the FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW19. Sergio took to the boards this week and he couldn’t have put it any better; “Nightmare gameweek for the site team :see-no: “. It may have been his sole contribution this week but at least he was 100% accurate with it! 45 points saw us with 10 less than the overall average. Kane got us a third of our overall points with his 15, the rest averaged 3 each. Enough said. Overall it saw us plunge back down 25,000 odd places to finish in 84,654th.
Last week’s result in full…
We go into GW19 with 1 free transfer and a more than healthy bank balance of £3.2m, but with a wildcard to swing at our issues could this finally be the week….?
This weeks transfer decision(s)
Yes, in short! The wildcard is finally active. The trouble with playing it now is of course rotation, we could make the best team possible and still see half of them benched. It’ll look and feel like egg on the face but we just need to crack on and take it, should it happen. The upside is that we can at least have a passable and active bench to come in for whichever one (or many) of our superstars take a break.
As for the selections themselves we’ve bought into the ‘Ole Revolution’ a fair bit here, threefold in fact. Their fixtures possibly warrant it though. A first home game against Huddersfield certainly does, if nothing else. Son gets a temporary spot for three weeks before he leaves us and Spurs for the Asian Cup in January. The rest is fairly self explanatory. There’s no Hazard, no Arsenal and no Richarlison but that’s not to say we snubbed any of them particularly, we would probably have taken any or all of them but as the saying goes “you can’t have them all”.
Our Captain is Mo Salah
This was fairly close between him and Kane, 3 votes to 2 close, in fact. Both have form and fixture in their favour so the truth is that we are just happy to have both of them, luck will probably decide whether we landed on the correct side of the fence.

Merry X-mas everybody. All set, happy to have Salah back. Any FF fans in Sol Duna currently ?
Merry Christmas all! Hope you are having an awesome day.
I’ve missed price rises and now my choices are limited!
What would you do? 2 FTs and 0.2m
I was thinking sterling and Perreya to Sané and martial/Pogba/Lingard
I’d like Son but come up short.
Thanks!
What to do? Can do 1 of the below with 2FT and 1m ITB – but struggling to set the priority.
(1) Get an UTD attacker selling 1 or 2 BOU attackers (Wilson > Rashford OR Fraser > Lingard) – not sure which one
(2) Get a POOL def. (Lowe > Lovren/TAA)
(3) Get SON and Kamara for Wilson/Jimenez and Fraser
Personally I think I would go for 2) TAA
@Smash @Mito and others – How are you planning to play the second half? Slow, steady and cautious OR, take punts and push for 1k? You are nicely poised for a good OR. My target is to break 10k…last season I faltered during Gw19-23/24 and tried to cover all the way….finally in last 3-4 weeks had to take punts to break 20k to 10k, which drifted me other way from 20k to 42k.
I’m ranked at 9k currently, I’m thinking slow, steady and hoping that alot of teams ahed have used BB and TC already
I only play to win my main mini league which I’ve not won in a few years. I’m taking some money out of defence by ditching Robbo and Alonso on wild card so guess I’m taking a risk there. I’ve had shocking starts previous three years so this is a bit different
Joyeux Noël everyone!
Am I good to go, is it the right bench and bench order?
With the team
Looks good…would put Wan-B before Brooks in bench.
In my team I have Wan-B on pitch and Doherty first on bench – though have the dilemma to reverse it.
That’s the dilemma for me also play Wan-B or Doherty. Currently on Wan-B
This is my team as it stands. 2 FT, 0.3 itb, no idea what to do.
Before Auba and Kane both exploded, my plan was to hock Kane for the returning Kun, and use the cash to
a) Sterling to Salah
or add Sterling to KDB as well and then use the even better cash to
b) Success to Rashford, or
c) Guendozi to Pogba
B and C would have required an extra transfer, so it would have to be either for a hit, or over two weeks.
But Auba and Kane fireworks have put me back at square one, and now I don’t know how to proceed.
Any suggestions?
