Welcome to FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW28
Happy Days…
Up and down we go, this week saw a small green arrow, which simply restores the damage we did last week, which destroyed the good from the week before. You get the picture, basically we are stuck hovering around the 100k mark, 103,391 now to be exact. GW27 saw us end up on 58 points and a rise of about 17k places, which ironically was the exact score we recorded in GW26 which saw us plummet a similar amount. FPL, eh…
As with most people this week we had to wait until Liverpool played on Monday to fill our points bag, which probably made little difference really, but for the record our trio brought us 28, which was just shy of 50% of our total. Elsewhere Pope and Stephens returned clean-sheets, meaning all of our backline brought us something positive this week, combining for 15. Jimenez got us a goal. The rest (KDB, Maddison, Grealish, Ings and Vardy) did sweet FA between them.
Our GW27 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided this week…
Our GW28 Transfer(s)
We must have planned this blank GW out well because when we first reviewed our team ahead of this week we did a collective Fonzie! If you’re too young to know what one of those is just google ‘Fonzie & mirror’…
It was so well set in fact (certainly in that it actually contained 11 players…) the first suggestion was to carry our transfer over. But then we noticed we already had two of those bad boys and rather than waste one we looked for some deadwood to sacrifice. Martin Kelly stood out as he’s been injured / has lost his place. The only problem then was that we had just £0.1m in the bank and pickings are slim at that particular end of the Kelly market.
So much so that Taylor of Burnley was the only realistic option. In his favour he actually plays, to his and our detriment it would mean a bit of a double up at the back with our goalie being Pope. But that may be no bad thing given their fixtures and recent defensive resurgence. What swung it though was that he definitely has a fixture in the loomingly large blank GW31. Now, we may decide to use our Free Hit for that one but we may as well prepare regardless in case we decide not to.
To confirm then we have SOLD Martin Kelly and BOUGHT Charlie Taylor
Captain – Mo Salah
‘If it’s not broke don’t fix it’. That was the main argument in favour of sticking with Salah this week. That and Watford. For the record Vardy did also garner a vote and Ings got an honourable mention as a potential Vice Captain. Vardy will wear the latter should something befall Salah.

Righto, this is me this week, with the classic 5-2-3 formation! :bop:
One hour before the deadline slams shut!
I’ve gone the same as you Gentle.
I did put the armband on Salah, but have plumped for Mane instead. Although I did Vice Salah
Fingers crossed.
Although just changed Vice., although not sure if wise!!!
Hammers, right decision. Salah still has only 2 away goals. They were scored against Bournemouth and WHU, in both games Mane didn’t play. Watford are not that bad at home, have 8 clean sheets, six of them at Vicarage Road :yes:
Thanks Ivan. I wasnt sure whether Mane was the right decision, but as most my rivals have Salah, I now have to go slightly different. (and having Salah, I get half points anyway!)
I am very tempted to go with Vardy but with all the rumours circling around is dodgy. Ings is another good option which I gambled last week and didn’t pay off.
What rumours are these?
Hi folks. Been busy and not really paying attention to FPL. I think silly GW26 killed my interest.
Am I g2g here? Got 1FT and £0.3m itb. Thinking to roll the FT.
Looks good to me Chipster
Eeek…
Hmmm. Wanted to take a hit for farty.
I’d wait Raz… now for me hmm I have both Vardy and Martial… yikes
Vardy rumors where?
Social media…injured in training by all accounts.
Rumour that Vardy doesn’t start tonight but it could all be someone just looking for attention to I’d be cautious and don’t make any rash moves until you know more.
I can’t see a decent striker to bring in anyway
I’ve just seen it on twitter from a reliable source..
Which?
this guy
And here was me thinking that doing my transfer an hour beforehand was “playing it safe”. Now I’ll need a -4 mins if I am going to do Vardy to Jiminez in the next 25 mins.
yep, supposedly a quite reliable source on starting xi’s *sigh*
What to do? I was thinking Grealish to cheap mid and Greenwood’s to Vardy… Now in doubt with rumors… Because it would be for a hit…
Just do Grealish to Barnes or Fernández?? What is up with everyone nutthugging the United guy? It is still united he’s playing for.
Traore will go in the upcoming weeks if not today.
It’s still United, and their next fixtures aren’t that great, but he does look very good, on penalties etc…
I didn’t bring him myself, but in your position I would do Grealish to him.
If you have the cash
I do. Him over Barnes though? Who does have good fixtures..
I could also do Traore to him by the way
Got like 4m cash.
