FF247 FPL Team GW14
Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW14
Lattes all round
Look up the word mediocre in a picture dictionary and you’ll find one of our team from GW13… at least there was none of the mayhem of recent game-weeks and we actually captained whom we said we would captain.
You know things haven’t gone well when your defence is the star of the show! Up top, our forwards combined for a grand total of 9pts. Our midfield trio weighed in with a staggering 13pts, which included our captain KdB and new signing Jack Grealish. At the back, Coufal picked up a clean sheet and two baps, Targett a clean sheet, Chilwell an assist and a bap. Dann (who came off the bench for Mahrez) and McCarthy should just go play in midfield or up top.
All this saw us score a whopping 46pts, four above the average which allowed us to register back to back clean sheets for the first time since GW5, and we now sit in 1,627,496th place.
That’s enough about GW13. It’s time to get serious, we have two free transfers burning a hole in someone’s pocket and we now have BGW18 and DGW19 to build towards. With that in mind, it’s over to the committee…
Our GW13 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided this week with our 2 free transfers and £0.4m spare.
Our GW14 Transfer(s)
It all started off in quite a sedate manner…
Kop opened the meeting by asking if anyone had any thoughts on transfers. Init responded with an extremely sensible suggestion of replacing with Kilman with a Leicester defender with DGW19 in mind. The next thing you know, Cookie barrels into the office and suggests selling Vardy & Mahrez for Salah & Bamford. I think he’d been on the mulled wine! Cookie’s Colombian partner in crime then weighs in with support and starts waffling on about tea & latte. Unsurprisingly, Floydeth is also in favour of these moves. Cookie only needed one more vote to make this happen… surely it couldn’t?
The next thing you know, Init, GP & Kop are on board. It’s really happening. Cookie & Mito have finally gotten one over the line. As GP said, “This season is batshit nuts”.
Just a word on the blank and double GW’s in 18 & 19, given as we touched on them above. Having ran through a number of scenarios the consensus at the moment seems to be that we will play our Free Hit Chip in 18 and possibly our Bench Boost Chip in 19. This means building a squad between now and then to do so. Which rather flies in the face of our eventual transfer decision this week! But we can’t just put everything into 19 as we also need to score points in 14. And 15. And 16. And…. you get the point.
To confirm then we have SOLD Riyadh Mahrez & Jamie Vardy and BOUGHT Mo Salah & Patrick Bamford
Captain – Harry Kane
Unlike last week, our captain decision was not a unanimous decision. Kane took the vote by 3 to 2 over Salah. It goes without saying that our vice-captain will be Salah.

Haven’t heard that saying for a while!

It was about my only contribution this week!

And you also forgot we owned Salah! 😉
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
To be fair he saw Cookie suggested getting him in and just assumed it be shot down.
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
3-2? There are six of you on the committee by the way, great idea to have an even number!
Sorry, I probably shouldn’t be heckling us. :focus:

You know how we roll. If it suits us that 6 divided by 2 equals 3 plus 2, then it just does :rofl:

Evening – would be really grateful to pick the brains of guest experts on rules. If I make an FT ..but then that same GW use FH… does that FT become part of the FH and so the player brought in isn’t there for the subsequent GW….? Trying to work out how many FTs I have for the DGW if I do FH in the blank GW. Hope that makes sense!
Gear
I think it becomes part of the FH
Stone Frog
No pernament transfers happen if you FH in a game week. Regardless if you make transfers before or after you hit the FH button. If FH in 18 you will 1 free transfer each for 14, 15, 16 17 and 19.
Stone Frog
Also if you have 2FT and you use FH, you will only have 1FT the week after I think, so beware of that.
Otieno
You have 1FT for the week after a FH regardless of how many you used the week before
Titleastic
Thanks everyone. Appreciate that. Going into GW14 with 1FT, and looking to FH in GW18 then means only 5FT for the DGW. Not many!
inittowinit Neymar (c) (36 points) (3 goals & a pen assist)
Your transfer would be swallowed up in the FH I believe. You get the team back which you began the GW with. Or more likely ended the previous one with, that’d probably be a better way of them wording it.
nauj
Hi guys
I have 2ft and planning to play my wc next gw.
So just need to think about this gw for these 2transfers. What transfer should i do in your opinion,
nauj
0.7£ in bank
piksi
Hi Nauj, I would keep players with big price increase even if they dont have good fixture this GW incase you want them back in wildcard next week.
Otieno
For a differential, and since it’s only one week, you could try changing your two SOU players for a double up on NEW, BHA or EVE defence
nauj
Perhaps lascelles>everyon’s def and the other transfer dnt know yet..:s
Gear
G2G even though pretty much my entire defence went AWOL last game week?
OddDane
Oh my! Remember to start bambam! Else GTG
:good:
Rosco
+1 drop a defender.. literally anyone for Bamford :good:
Otieno
I’m good with that. Bamford is going to be first on my bench this week as well
kickers

Gear
