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.

    Just thinking about GW19 already. Any thoughts on building something like this for bench boost?

      Looks great, pretty much how I’ll be set up come GW19 too!

      Looks good. I’m doing similar in eyeing up 13 DGWers + Son Kane. Lookman at 5mils an enabler but horrendous fixtures. Hard to think who else at the price point given you have Soucek…. would you get more points out of Cresswell James Anguissa for Zouma Taylor Lookman? Just an idea

    Is it worth debating who to captain between Kane or Son or it’s just impossible to decide?

    Few things I noticed, against teams which don’t defend deep Son has outscored Kane in all of them.

    Southampton
    Son: 24
    Kane: 21

    United
    Son 18
    Kane 16

    Mancity
    Son 10
    Kane 4

    Chelsea
    Son 3
    Kane 2

    Arsenal
    Son 13
    Kane 12

    Liverpool
    Son 9
    Kane 2

    I would not expect Leicester to defend deep against Spurs but again Kane’s record against Leicester is difficult to ignore.

    0.2 itb, 1 FT. But would like to get Salah in now, ….but could be convinced either way …
    a) Out Vardy and Fernandes, In Salah and Calvert Lewin (-4 hit)
    b) Out Vardy and Fernandes, In Salah and Ings (-4 hit)
    c) Dont sell Fernandes, Out Vardy , In Calvert-Lewin or Ings
    d) What do you mean sell Vardy. Do nothing, save the transfer.

    Don’t want to waste a ft, but stumped by what to do. Plan is to get dgw players for gw19, but only 0.1m in the bank. Will probably move Wilson on in the next gw when his fixtures turn. Also considering ditching double Chelsea defence but they have a double gw. Any suggestions?

    Are you:
    1) planning to Bench Boost in GW19
    or
    2) planning to hold it for a later double?

      I can’t face thinking about it right now. Will be interesting to see how people go about it. The free hit sort of appeals in that I can assemble something for 18, free hit 19 and then correct things after 19.

      But my copying what seems to be a valid tactic deeper thinking about this will come before I play the first wildcard.
