FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW26
Welcome to FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW26.
I love it when a plan comes together…
More pertinently; a hit, ‘I love it when a hit comes together…’ That was the rallying cry from one of our panel on Saturday night and thank goodness that we did it. It’s difficult to put a number on how many points it gained us, or conversely how many it would have lost us had we not done so, mainly because we don’t know who we would have captained instead. A sliding doors moment, if you like. Or the Butterfly Effect. We can hypothesise all we like and come up with scenarios of having captained Vardy or TAA but the fact of the matter is that we would have come up well short either way. Salah was only one element of last weeks ‘hit’ though, the fact that Lascelles came in and kept a cleanie was equally as satisfying, especially so that Soyuncu (going the other way) conceded two.
As for the team itself, Salah aside, it was a one way street between defence and attack ; our defence (and keeper) got us a very rare clean sweep of clean sheets for a combined 18 points. Our other six attackers amassed 11 points between the 6 of them.
All in all then it was a satisfying haul of 67 points which saw a green arrow and a rise of 22k places leaving us in 106,713th place overall.
Our GW25 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided…
Our GW26 Transfer(s)
The one area of our squad that looked somewhat suspect this week was our defence, given that our newbie Lascelles goes to Arsenal and Kelly and The Lord appear to be out of favour. Unfortunately, our funds or lack thereof, dictated that The Lord had to go. Sad we know, but ruthless we are and it was just left to decide whether to buy a fellow Blade or Jack Stephens of Southampton. Both teams have good fixtures going forward but it was Saint Jack who won the vote, mainly because Southampton play in GW28 and Sheffield United don’t.
To confirm then we have SOLD The Lord and BOUGHT Jack Stephens
Captain – Mo Salah
The captaincy vote was just as straightforward – Salah’s trip to Norwich was too good for our conservative committee to ignore. Salah returned 12pts when Liverpool hosted Norwich in GW1 – a similar result in GW26 would be sweet.

Hmm… Both Lundy and Kelly… what to do with 1FT and absolutely no free cash? :help:
I’m likely to move Lunders on for Stephens, for what it’s worth. Nice fixtures. I was thinking of Stevens but while SU have nice fixtures, they don’t have as many.
Other names being tossed around are Boly, O’Connell, Taylor.
Cheers Kralin. Agree, wanted Boly for Lundy but unfortunately he dropped so I’m underfunded. Could do Kelly+Lundy for Boly+Taylor for a hit but that seems a waste somehow:scratch_one-s_head:
No I wouldn’t do that, 4 points down the drain and points become more important as the weeks tick by.
Did Kelly to Lascalles and giving Lundy a last chance… Hmm…
Lundstram to O’Connell or Stephen’s.
Any thoughts on this lot? Possible lord Lundy out for someone?
Still researching a bit myself but appreciate any tips all while I’m rooting.
.3 in the bank at the moment
see comment above.
I second Kralin’s sage advice.
Cheers lads. Was just looking at that there now myself
Lundstram to O’Connell or Stephen’s from Southampton. You need strength on that bench.
Am I good to go? I’m not sure if captaining Trent over Salah is worth the risk?
1 FT £0.5 ITB
It’s not worth the risk.
I like the Stevens/Stephens defence. Team looks fine to me.
Salah for captain I think.
Probably play Grealish ahead of Holgate too I think.
+1
Grealish sitting on the bench. You daredevil you.
Not worth it this GW
Any views here please, and should I start lascelles over soyuncu??
Looks fine and no.
Thanks Kralin.
No
Kun in. Vardy out.
I have 9.4m for a mid. Just not sure tho. Really like Traoré but he’s injured? Any other contenders?
I would probably just keep Vardy and Mane.
Is Son affordable?
Salah over Kun as cappo? :wacko:
Both great picks, I’m on Kun, if it pays off it will be s much better week for my mental health… if it doesn’t I’ll come here and whine on till someone reminds me it’s a free game
You sold Egan!??? My god man why!?
I have enough cover, also needed a replacement for GW28 and it frees up £500k
I have switch to Kun and KdB as Vice.
@Terminator. You’ve got a good TV there. And good team as well. I have both and am going with Aguero. The explosive factor of Kun is a bit higher than Salah imo.
Kun. WH has been pathetic recently. Recalling the DGW WH had, and the amount of goals they conceded. If they concede like this again, surely Kun will be in the score sheet.
