Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW21
meh
/mɛ/
informal
exclamation: meh
expressing a lack of interest or enthusiasm.
“meh, I’m not impressed so far”
48 points in GW20 and six above the average. ‘Meh’ about covers it.
Our team did secure a green arrow in the overall rankings this week moving up to 1,141,741 from 1,201,188 – 59,447 places. Woo. Hoo.
We know, we know! “It’s a step in the right direction” / “It’s no red at least” / “The correct side of the average”. Etc. etc. But come on this is boring. We want big scores, flashy jumps. In essence, we want to be the hare not the tortoise!
Not looking at it forensically this week – but we had FOUR players with a solitary point in Alex McCarthy, Vlad Coufal, Paddy Bamford and Harry Kane so thank goodness for Gundogan, Antonio, Grealish, Chilwell and Dias for pulling their weight and doing the heavy lifting for the aforementioned rubber ducks.
If only we’d captained Gundogan but can’t honestly say it crossed anyone’s mind…..
Our GW20 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided…
Our GW21 Transfer(s)
Nobody in our number fancies Kane does a Lazarus and starts on Sunday and with not much value to be lost if we need to buy him back, we thought we would dip into the market for a new striker. This one was as quick a transfer decision as has been seen within FF247. Two minutes quick, in fact:
To confirm then we have SOLD HARRY KANE and BOUGHT DOMINIC CALVERT-LEWIN
Captain – ILKAY GUNDOGAN
With three quickfire votes for the German (and one member temporarily abstaining due to recent personal form), this one too was quickly done and dusted. We like City’s fixture, the midfielder is in scoring form and ‘could/should’ be on penalty-taking duty.
If Pep peps us, then BRUNO FERNANDES will step up as vice captain.

All set & bench almost the same as the FF247 team.
Captain Gundo here we come…
Nice LRL.
still hesitate whether bamford to dcl for -4. then I would need to bench someone. opinions are welcomed.
As much as I love DCL this week (and it seems I have been telling everyone to get him!), I don’t think I would if I were you. I don’t see who would go on the bench. Bamford is sort of OK to be benched because of his form and recent minutes in the last game – but still could go wrong.
Leave as is I think.
I thought the same. the bench stops me getting dcl now.. but dcl has two games in hand and it is new castle. could be a hatttrick incoming :big_boss:
Morning all,
If you read this Init, I hope your wife is OK and makes a full and speedy recovery x
Really appreciate the article.
So, I’m thinking of taking a -4… thoughts?
Alioski to Cancelo
Kane to DCL (only got Kane last week so won’t lose anything on him).
Does that sound OK?
Thanks,
CC
I’d back those transfers. Your team is severely lacking Man City players.
Sounds good to me.
Thanks both.
Yep exactly, need to get some City players ASAP!
Hello guys, already did Kane >> DCL 0FT and 3.6m itb. Am I gtg? My future moves could be Dier >> Digne or Grealish >> Son. Does either one of this worth a hit ?
All tickety-boo and we can talk about the future once this GW is over. It’s good to have a coherent plan though. I’m sure you’ll be fine. No need to hit.
Thanks mate. Won’t be surprised if planned moves go down the drain again
I think neither are worth the hit Coys
Cheers mate! Best of luck!
I don’t think so.
Cheers GP :good:
Morning guys, am struggling with this weeks transfers. 6.2itb & 1ft. My options are:
1) Kane to DCL & Riedwald to Son (-4)
2) Bamford to DCL & Riedwald to Maddison or Barnes (-4)
3) Kane to DCL
4) Bamford to DCL
Was thinking of benching Kane but have not got much value tied up in him only will lose 0.1m.
Current team below.
Cheers
3 for me. Best of luck.
3
I might be doing 4
Cheers all
Wildcard Team:
Martinez, Steer
Robertson, Stones, Cancelo, Rudiger, Holding
Salah, Fernandes, Gundagon, Son, Barnes
Watkins, Antonio, DCL
1) Steer + Watkins/Antonio -> Areola + Rodrigo
2) Should I look at any other Everton players now that their players are back from injury?
3) Is TAA coming for Robertson?
4) Is Cresswell a must?
hi M&B,
You might have a benching headache there in the upcoming games. Digne /Justin would be considerations I would have over Robertson and Rudiger. It might be an idea to have a cheap DGW second keeper with dgw’s in mind (Meslier maybe).
I dont like Rodrigo as a fpl option as he regularly comes off early.
2) DIgne
3) Wouldnt have either on WC
4) He is a viable consideration for sure but I think you are playing 4 at the back then.
The big players will come back from injury so I do think you need a plan to get at least one big hitter without needing a load of trfs
Hey TheDreamers,
Thanks mate! I know the benching headaches are coming, but I’m not sure what else to do. No one’s on the form radar!
Robertson is a bit of an FPL stalwart for me – maybe my Liverpool allegiance is misplaced!
I’d love a second playing keeper.. I’ll see what I can do about Meslier..
