FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW36
Welcome to the FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW36. It takes a lot for us to get excited and in fairness our performance this season hasn’t juiced us up on many occasions. However it seems that patience is indeed our virtue after a 72pt week in GW36. This gave our Free Hit team a weekly ranking of 23,903 and we have risen 50k places from 113,353 to a season’s best (by far) of 63,265. Forgive us for ‘boasting’, as such, but this is our 9th green arrow in a row. Happy days!
Our performance this week was consistent throughout the team with only Klavan, Zaha, Mane and Wood failing to contribute anything worthwhile. Clean sheets from Baines and Tomkins added to goal-scoring performances from Sterling, Salah, Lacazette and Jesus along with bonus points from the lot of them as well as our keeper grabbing a vital 5 points despite not even keeping a clean sheet.
Last Week’s Result –
Let’s go and see what we have decided to do this week…
This Weeks Transfers –
Sold Lukaku and Willian & Bought Kane and Kenedy
This is part one in a two part ‘hit plan’ to prepare ourselves properly for DGW37. And so also begins a tale of why it is maybe best to play your wildcard as near to a DGW as possible!
To be fair to us, we played our 1st one in preparation for DGW34, albeit back in GW32, so it’s possibly no surprise that it needs a bit of cleansing by now. People speak of ‘having better information’ nearer the time and back then we didn’t have a fit Kane to speak of, we didn’t have a long term injured Aguero to speak of (thus thrusting Jesus upon us, more on him soon) and we didn’t know what state of mind City would be in after the title was won. A rampant one, as it turns out!
The Plan!
We only have the Triple Captain Chip left and we intend to put it on Kane in DGW37. Which obviously requires actually owning him. We decided to go early and get him this week as we also really like the prospect of a home game against a Watford team who switched off weeks ago.
In order to do this we needed to raise some funds, and so with a view to wanting a couple of Man City bodies next week we have decided to lose Willian for Kenedy to allow Kane to come in for Lukaku given their respective fixtures this week. Kenedy has a DGW ahead and whilst it’s not an ideal one we like the pay off in being able to maximise on Man City next week, who definitely do have an ideal one, and obviously we get Kane who also does.
Doing the above this week should in theory allow us to bring in Jesus and either Sterling or Sane next week ahead of Man City having a DGW with two great looking home games.
The Team In Full…
Captain – Mo Salah
Our captain for GW36 comes with a big fat * (asterix)!
If our sources, or failing them, any other indications, are that Salah plays from the start then we have to captain him. How can we not at home to Stoke?!
If they suggest otherwise then we may well switch the armband to Kane, who will be our Vice Captain anyway, just in case of a stalemate in the above information!

Guys am i good to go here. Wc active.
Looks very good.I’m jealous of that team ! :thumbup:
Seriously? Cheers Brooky.
Front 7 look smoking !
A salah update is all you need to hear. Not a fan of your keeps but guess your BB next week?
Cheers Gavy.
This looks great! A*
Cheers Rosco.
Hey
In a similar situation to you.
Plan on doing Lukaku and Pogba to Jesus and Sterling this gw. But getting Kane would be pretty tough then without downgrading Alonso and one of Mahrez/Salah
This was supposed to be a reply, don’t know how it landed here.
Thoughts on this WC team? All double GW’ers. 0 money ITB. Fernandez flagged but should hopefully be ok next week. Thanks!
Hey Sven, great team.
Only concern is Bednarek. Not sure on his game time with Stephens back now
Good point thanks. Will prob swap Salah for Erik in the DGW which would mean I can upgrade a defender too so will have a look at that! Cheers
No WC for me, just the 1FT.
Lukaku to Jesus and Mahrez to Sterling or Eriksen…..which would ppl recommend and is it worth a hit this week
Pretty much what I’m doing myself. I’m going for Sterling but that’s because I have Son. Sterling comes with more of a rotation risk but also possibly with more of an upside if he does get the minutes.
Init – Is it worth taking the hit on Sterling this week or hold it for the double.
Id also probably offload Dunk next week
I’m leaning toward doing it but I won’t decide until tonight.
Hi all! It’s got this bad that I’m sitting here as a teacher on a free period tinkering with my WC team! Don’t tell the head! I’m not sure whether to leave my team as it is or I have a few options! Thoughts would be grateful! First team is current and I’ll post two other options!
One option is with any defender 5m or less!
Strong team. Personally I’m always worried about Ramsey’s game time as I’ve been burnt by him before. If Arsenal still make the Europa Final I can see him being rested for Leicester game and then playing GW38 with the full squad.
Thanks Sven! One I can keep an eye on as I’ll still have a FT next gw should Arsenal get through!
I prefer the original one Sir.
Hi Init! My only concerns with the original is no Chelsea cover and I have a Swans and Southampton keeper as well as a defender from both and not sure that’s wise?
True, sort of overlooked that. Kill Rambo or Lingard and upgrade one of the Saints?
I prefer the first team. I don’t think Rambo plays this week but you might be ok with that
Thanks Smash! Yes I imagine Ramsey would have been on my bench this week anyway, he was more a pick for the dgw. I could always do Ramsey to Kenedy, McCarthy to Ederson and VDH to a 5.1 or less!
Yeah think I like that
Holding on to a slender 16 point lead and have the TC left for GW37.
Would you advise saving my transfer this week?
