FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW4
Green arrows, we see green arrows! Our 62pt haul has lifted us to 134,896 from 283k. Good progress. Our defence was again the highlight with Robertson’s clean sheet and Alonso’s assists – both also scored maximum bps while Mendy chipped in with a single bonus point despite conceding at Wolves. Salah capo was ok, could have been more, but he is solid again. Josh King even scored for us and Tom Cairney and Firmino got involved with an assist each. Hamer, Kun and Mkhi did nowt and we won’t even name the brainless Everton midfielder.
Last Week’s Result
What have we done this week?
Sold Richarlison; Bought Lucas Moura
Ah, that surprised you, didn’t it? You were all expecting we’d make the obvious and boring move to Walcott. Yes you were. Admit it. Why not Walcott? Good question and one there’s no obvious answer to. Only one of the management team voted for young Wally and even he wasn’t 100% committed to the idea. Truth be told, we’ve all been burned by Walcott in the past. A certain Colombian will attempt to say that he suggested we get Hazard but having checked back through the minutes of our many meetings this week and we can find no evidence of such a suggestion.
Back to Lucas Moura. Why did we buy him? Because he’s not Theo Walcott! In fairness to him, he’s scored three in his last two games and while United were poor on Monday night Spurs were quite impressive and are ultimately a better and more attacking side than Everton. We certainly wouldn’t blame anyone for going down the Wally route, he does after all have two good looking home games coming up. Pedro was mentioned too but didn’t get any concrete votes. Moura did and so he is in.
The Team In Full…
Captain – Sergio Aguero
After reading this weeks Capo’s article we all asked ourselves which of the contenders for the armband we’d most like to wake up beside and Kun won, hands down. So he’s our captain. In all seriousness we can’t ignore his recent record against Newcastle, 11 goals in his last five games against them at the Etihad.

Happy Friday all!
Pulled the trigger on my WC, so any thoughts on the below would be massively appreciated!
hey benny, my only concerns would be the game times of pedro and bernardo. i’d replace at least one of them.
otherwise the team looks good
Really like it although I think there are a few better options at 4.5 than Daniels seeing as Rico has served his suspension and could take his place.(Holebas if can afford him or Schlupp!?)
Would Bilva, Daniels and Jimenez to Miki, Holebas and Zaha work?
Benny
Would probably cover Arsenal somewhere within a current WC. Probably Mkhitaryan for Bernardo if that works?
I would consider Robertson for Trent as well even if that means shaving a bit on your keeper.
Consider Bilva to Gundogan as City mids are a lottery and Gundo is doing just as good as Bilva atm, but for considerably less cash. Use the liberated cash to upgrade Pedro to Mkhy / Moura, Trent to Robertson, Daniels to Cook / Holebas and Bennett to Obi-Wan.
Having a Jedi in the team would help…
Nice write up, had to bring Alonso in as losing too many points not having him! How’s the team looking?
Looks good jol. Like me you’ll be monitoring Sessegnon’s involvement closely this week.
Jokanovic has said Sessegnon won’t play every game
I get that. But it would be his performance when he does which would make him a problem or not. More likely he will be.
Yeah I think he’s fine for now as you would expect him to come back in. Just his long term doubts
Morning all! Any thoughts on my team this week? 0ft 0itb
– starting lineup ok or swap someone off the bench?
– who should be 1st on bench …Obi-Wan or Shaw?
– Triple captain Aguero or leave for dgws?
– Any transfers I should be looking to for next week?
Cheers
I would go with that with maybe Shaw as first bench player.
Nice team, mate, you’re all set I think. Game time of Shaw and BSilva are the things that would draw my transfer attention I think, but it’s the international break so hold fire in case of injuries!
Hi fellas. Thanks for the useful comments over the last couple of days. Final vote please (2FTs, 0.4m in the bank):
1) Luiz + Richy > Alonso + Frazer
2) Luiz + Peltier + Firmino > Alonso + Bellerin + Zaha (-4pt)
Cheers!
I like option one and a switch to 3-4-3 long term.
Cheers GP. I’m a little doubtful about merit of two cheap strikers in 3-4-3 vs loading up with premium attacking defenders. I suppose we need to wait and see if Mitro/King etc keep performing
1) for me
Also like 1
Defo 1 mate! No need to take Firmo out for a hit!!
Thanks all! That’s me told
Bernardo Silva+Peltier to Fraser+Alonso worth the hit?
I see that Arnie is recovered? YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^based on the above, I’d say transfer definitely worth it, but only hit if there’s no other way…Who are your other defenders?
Nice to see you Raz, hope you’re well!
I have Mendy and Robertson.
With two hard upcoming fixture I could do Robertson to Alonso and buy Robertson back later?
One way to look at is that Alonso should get forward this week and may make back the hit points. Chelsea by no means guaranteed a CS though…
Lol, I don’t nkow what this means. 😛
Is Mito around?
If so, did you post feedback to Fantasy Surgery?
