FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW4
Form over faculties?
Welcome to FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW4.
GW3 was tough. Really tough. We brought in a couple of Ole’s babies and one eeked out an assist, the other sh*t the bed, to be frank. Martial got us 5 points for his troubles, Wan-B got us zero after a yellow card and a late goal conceded. Not every transfer decision can be perfect and Palace at home screamed clean sheet. In theory…
Wan-B’s defensive compatriots didn’t fare much better as they amassed 7 points between the sorry lot of them.
Our ‘left-field GW1’ pick McGinn got us an assist to keep things ticking along in the midfield budget basement. Our premium mids did what they do with Salah and Sterling (C) bringing home 31 between them.
Up top we may have some issues as Jota and Kane got two points apiece.
Overall we got 53 points, which was 9 above the average. It somehow meant a green arrow, albeit the tiniest of ones and we moved up 300 spots to sit at 82,365th.
Our GW3 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided this week…
Our GW4 Transfer(s)
Problems have been mounting as Martial has been ruled out, Walker-Peters looks likely to be so, our front-line is mis-firing, our back-line is conceding and even our sub keeper was getting so fed up with them all he buggered off on loan to Ipswich for the season. Now we could have ridden some of this but in all honesty a mini overhaul was on the cards and we wanted to jump on some in form players early doors before their prices prohibited us from doing so. As such we voted to WILDCARD this week.
As for our actual picks many (most) need little or no explanation as quite frankly it looks like a who’s who of who has scored the most points recently. We believe that is called ‘form’ though and so make no apologies for doing so. Our front-line is a case in point; it now consists of the three highest scoring forwards in the game. Chasing points much, you may ask. In all honesty no because they are simply the form guys and we wish we had had the hindsight to pick them all from GW1!
If you have further questions about the choices please feel free to ask them in the comments below and we are sure one of the committee will be on hand to offer any explanations but as we say it looks pretty straightforward as to the why bit in most cases.
To confirm then we have WILDCARDED
Captain – Ben Stokes Sergio Aguero
If we could have captained our hero Ben then we would have (many did in the Captain Poll!) but it was a toss up between Kun and Sterling and it could have been either way round really. We clearly feel that City may go on one this week, despite Brighton’s promising start. Kun edged it narrowly, Raheem will back up if Pep suddenly decides to lose his mind rotate.

We have very similar teams, only three players is different. Still you team feels a thousand times better!
You got KDB, ceballos and barnes and I got mount, Wilson and martial.
Reply on post 17.
True I do prefer my three but you have the extra 14 points including my hit on the board which is what it’s all about
10 extra since i’ve taken a hit, but not a great feeling going forward. That’s worth alot if you want to enjoy the game.
Is Matip a huge risk? seems to be playing well & in favour at the moment.
Wanted to find funds for Kane to Kun & VVD to Matip seems an obvious way to do it & still retain Liverpool defence cover (even though they haven’t kept a clean sheet yet!)
Would have Zouma as back up if he didnt play
Matip looks solid lately and if that’s the only way to get Kun then yea maybe?
Gomez coming in could be a problem
However he tends to replace TAA?
VVD is a beast tho and will play every game plus he’ll get 3-5 goals this season,
Tbh I’d keep him and look at other options to raise that 1m
Any alternate options to make the move happen?
The Matip move would also involve KWP to Zouma, however i could simply do KWP to Kelly & keep VVD
My only concern is that it would leave me with Kelly & Lundstrum as 2 of my defenders
Both are sure to get starts. I wouldn’t mind keeping them at the cost of keeping VVD as well
It’s basically this team
Or this one
Team with VVD feels stronger Hammers
Deffo the one with VVD for me
+1
Thanks guys,
I feel the Matip team is more balanced, but tbh it gives me too many choices to make each week – Ceballos or Canwell, Zouma or Matip or even both & play 3 in midfield. I know its going to really piss me off leaving points on the bench.
VVD team basically picks itself, with some cover if need be.
Think im going with it
@hammers…Looking at your team I’m Thinking you are plating 343. If so How many weeks would you use Lundstram & Kelly. Your def would be VVD,Digne, Zinch…Set & Kept for every week. So why worry about the other 2 Defs.
Any news on Mount’s injury?
Lampard presser in an hour but he’s been training
Would you go for Barnes + Mount or Abraham + Mc Ginn
Barnes and Mount for sure
defo barnes & mount
Cheers both of you gents
Hey guys,
Made an early transfer of Perez >Mount.
Now stuck with an injured Martial.
Don’t wanna take a hit now.
Would you suggest starting Kelly or Greenwood for next week ?
My Bench consist of Dendoncker Kelly and Greenwood
Thanks in advance
Play Kelly I think
Would be my first choice if United front line wasn’t stretched thin…
Though with martial out,
I see him playing with Rashford, James and Greenwood. N I don’t want greenwood starting in the 11 vs Southampton and him on my bench instead of Dendoncker/Kelly
Basically a risk assessment of sorts.
Would you risk Greenwood staring ahead of Kelly/Dendoncker assuming the point difference between each would be at most 2 points
I would yes
Cheers mate
I think Mata or Lingard starts
Keep Dendo @ 1st sub, Kelly @ 2nd sub and the greenwood. Dendo if fit play and as a mid will bring you at least 2 points.
Yes but I’d probably still get the 2 points with Kelly… With a small outside chance of a CS.
Though my major concern is greenwood starting..
Even if it is for 60 mins, I expect him to make more of n impact than either Dendoncker or Kelly…
Thoughts?
I have a similar situation but got Lundstram instead of Kelly, therefore, I am going to play Greenwood. I genuinely think he will start and could be a threat, but I could be wrong.
UEFA Europa League Group Stage Draw
Hey Lads I feel i’ll Regret if I don’t bring in Aguero for Kane. Any advice? Only 1ft. Already used WC & regret it
Martial + Kane to Mount + Kun
+1
If you want to have a punt then yes, go with Martial & Kane out for Kun & some one else. But personally if I were you, I would change only Martial to another mid. If you are going for a 4 point hit, Kun has to outscore Kane by @ least 2 worthy contributions to be worthy.
Cheers lads. Will do that move so :good:
