FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW22
Oh what could have been…
It’s fair to say we have mixed feelings this week; we sold Rashford (12 points) and Sane (10 points) and bought Wilson (6 points) and Pogba (3 points). Well ok, we say mixed…! It is actually mixed though as we didn’t drop off a cliff as a result, voluntarily or otherwise, we did somehow manage to still grab a green arrow, albeit not as big a one as we would have, had we simply overslept on New Year’s Day, or something similarly convenient. Someone please remind us next year to simply get blind drunk and forget the team!
As it was we somehow scraped through with 63 points, with only really Kane (c) on 24 and Son with 13 pulling any weight. Wilson did get that 6 and the much derided Shaw got 5, the rest barely played, as far as we could tell.
We rose about 8k to 44,626th. Had we not done our ‘moves’ we would have been…….. we jest, we couldn’t stomach such an analysis. Someone will probably furnish us with said info in the comments section anyway!
Last week’s result…
Let’s go see what damage we can do to this week’s team by making our decisive decisions…
This week’s transfer decision…
We go into GW22 with one free transfer and £1.6m in the bank.
We’ve actually decided to sit on our hands and do nothing, as boring as that may sound. And no, it’s not an extreme reaction to last week’s debacle of decisions, it’s simply because we feel we can field a decent enough team this week without any changes, and with Son exiting stage left after this week we rather like the idea of two free transfers and a bit of flexibility next week to deal with that inevitable situation.
Looking at our team this week the fixtures are actually a bit naff for many of them but we do accept that this will be the case for the majority too. You just like to see more favourable opposition, but perhaps aesthetics isn’t everything in FPL; somebody still always scores points in these games.
To confirm then we have SOLD & BOUGHT; nobody!
*Disclaimer on Wilson; Reports are suggesting contrasting things about young Callum at the time of publishing, ranging from; not being pictured training, to being fit and available, to being off to either Chelsea or West Ham! Suffice to say we shall monitor this situation closely and if anything more concrete emerges in the next day or so we will act accordingly. We shall be sure to say so in the comments if our plans do change drastically! Well ok, it won’t be that drastic; we shall either bench him or sell him for a similarly priced striker, probably one called Rashford, oh the irony…
Our Captain is Mo Salah
It’s not often we get a clean sweep on the captain vote, in fact it’s ‘hen’s teeth’ territory when it’s a clean sweep on both that and the vice captain vote but that’s what we had this week. Five votes, and every single one said ‘ Salah (c), Kane (v). We don’t actually ask for reasons, but if we had we suspect that they would touch on the same thing as above really; best fixture out of a bad bunch, relatively speaking.

Hi guys, it’s been a hell busy week going back to work after the holidays. I feel totally detached now and there is so much to read and catch up on here.
2 FT and 1.7 ITB. Any ideas?
gkw
Laporte >> TAA?
IvanTheTerrible
Thanks gkw. I can’t see pool getting a CS this round but that will bring some extra cash in the kitty for some more constructive move next week.
TheDreamers
Andersen/pogba in for Lingard /Martial?
IvanTheTerrible
I only got Anderson out two rounds ago to accommodate Rashford and then you know what happened. Lingard is alright, even as a supersub. In United we trust 🙂
MHD
i think lingard to sane & roll other transfer.
P.S Fab will likely produce 0 or 1 & so your sub
GoalMachine
There are only 2 players in your team who are not performing – Lingard and Laporte. I don’t believe in Lingard at all – he will fire 1 week and then will be quiet 5 weeks and half of them as [Super/Non-Super]Sub. I like Martial, but he seems lost in that UTD attacking crowd (Luka, Rashford, Sanchez and now even Pogba).
Since you are holding long and 2 good games coming – May be Laporte > TAA is a better choice this week. Also, it will prepare you for BGW27 of City+Che/Spurs.
GoalMachine
@Ivan, another option is to get Guita(as you don’t have Wan-B) in goal for any of those 2 may be Patricio. But is Guita nailed on over Henessey? I am not sure.
I am bit surprised not to see Wan-B in your team – he is there in almost every team since Gw1-2. Crystal Pal defence looks good enough.
GoalMachine
Few Bournemouth questions: (1) Any latest update on Wilson? (2) Anyone is trying Clyne (4.4 RB or RWB)?
I have Wilson with backup as Kamara – save my FT? only 1 FT and nothing in bank.
