FF247 FPL Team GW18
Free Hit The Bollocks Out Of It!
Last week saw some highs and lows within the FF247 community. For every grumble at a 40 odd score there seemed to be a success story of an 80 odd. We fell somewhere in the middle as we ended up with 62. A smidgen above the average of 56 and a very modest green arrow of about 15k all pointed to us just about ‘getting away with it’.
As for the team itself Captain Kane lead from the front with a 24. Bruno (10), Grealish (7) and JWP (6) kept us afloat elsewhere whilst the most unexpected points came from our sub keeper as Forster clambered off the Covid riddled Saints bench for a 6. The rest made up the numbers, Salah included with 2.
Our GW17 Result…
We have 2 free transfers and £0.5m in the bank ahead of B(lank)GW18 and a Free Hit still in our pocket so let’s go see what was decided…
Our G18 Transfer(s)
I was funnelling my inner Alanis Morissette
We did as the title of this article suggests and for one week only, we have played our Free Hit. Trying to reach a decision was arguably easier than it should have been, perhaps all except the author has been tortured into submission. We toyed with a traditional 4-3-3, then a somewhat left-field 3-5-2 before the usually conservative bunch on the committee liked (I think, they may have just been humouring me) the outrageous and less often played 4-5-1.
Without going through every position and boring you all to tears (as I clearly did with my fellow committee chaps), we have concentrated on Man City, Man United, Spurs and god-forbid Arsenal. However, the Free Hit is there to play the fixtures and that is what we have done.
We have also got the main ‘big hitters’ in which hopefully adds to the potential ceiling of points that we can attain this week. After all, we bloody well need them!
To confirm then we have played our FREE HIT
Captain – KdB
Our captain is KdB and our vice is Bruno. There was one shout for Bruno as captain but he was quickly shut down.

We have played our Free Hit….
That is a great looking team, let’s hope for more green arrows!
I like it. Well done
FYI we just switched Cancelo to Dias.
Hi Init, Are you doing this because there is a chance Cancelo does not start, I’ve just read Peps comments on him and still cannot work out if he is going to start him or not :scratch_one-s_head:
Love a late min switch, added drama.
How’s this fh team?
Lewis, Neco and brewster on the bench….
Swap Lewis for Yedlin
Why not Mitchell (3.9) – just in case someone needs to be replaced? Same price as Neco.
And Neco to Mitchell
Here is me I’m thinking Son in for Salah for a -4 and hoping for the best
About as good as you could hope for sans a FH.
Good move Smash, why Kane or Son not captain?
Good move imo. Team is good enough to save FH.
Thanks all
Please rate my Free Hit team below
Also what about captain
Any support here ??
Yes it’s pretty good mate – also your captain choice is logical. A very sound choice as far as lineup is concerned. Good luck.
Struggling with my defence for FH. Set on Dias and cancelo. What’s better combo for the other positions
A) Leno, Tierney, maguire
B) de gea, Tierney, dier
Leaning towards b as not confident in arsenal keeping a clean sheet so spreads the risk slightly
B, for the same reason.
Afternoon all.
Which one out of Cancelo or Dias?
Dias feels like he’s due a goal for some reason.
A bullet header be nice initt
Haa, I hope that happens.
