FF247 FPL Team GW27
Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW27
ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY!
Well ok, not quite. But that was about the target. It has to be when you go in with 14 DGW’ers, which is effectively 29 players. Or two and a half normal teams. But perhaps these modern DGW’s lull us into a false sense of security. A few years back you could pick said 29 and be relatively assured that you’d get about 27 or 28 of them on the actual pitch. Not so much these days!
As it was we came away with 113, minus the odd hit. And by ‘odd’ we mean a -4, not a -32. Someone best go check on Cookie…
As for the players themselves a few did exactly as expected (see Martinez, Digne, Son and Kane, even Lowton for that matter). A few got rotated as expected (see Gundo and Cancelo). A few disappointed (see Bruno and DCL). None particularly excelled.
Collectively though they saw us through to another green arrow, our 10th in 11 attempts, and another modest jump in the ranks of about 200k to see us now sitting 408,190th. Slowly, slowly, etc…
Our GW26 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided this week.
Our GW27 Transfer(s)
Our only issue was the injury suffered by Harvey Barnes. We looked at like for like replacements for the Leicester man and there was more than one nose turned up at what was on offer. Add to that, that if we did transfer someone in, it would mean that one of our current front seven would have to be dropped.
Some of our number were ballsy and were talking about Bruno being benched (he is looking a bit tired) and even DCL at Chelsea but the more risk averse members motion carried and the transfer will be held.
We don’t have our Free Hit chip left remember, so having two transfers to shape us up as best we can for BGW29 and another week’s worth of information is probably not a bad idea. We will also have greater flexibility in a Barnes replacement this way.
To confirm then we have HELD OUR TRANSFER
Captain – ILKAY GUNDOGAN
The obvious DGW attraction meant that it was a sure thing that the armband was going to a City player. But which? Well we are obviously in no mood to take any defensive captaincy risks – we’ve witnessed some big scores from Stones, Cancelo, Digne etc – and the armband then, goes to the midfielder amongst our Citizens. The German goes in search of his 12th goal of the season. We’re backing him to get it (and more!)
Should anything go wrong, we will swerve City altogether and place our back up chip on Harry Kane at home to Crystal Palace.

Sadly this is true. Plus Saturday is curry night.
Not sure how this got here, but this is for Kralin & Kop.
Sounds splendid.
Could be a curry, usually would be, I just fancied a pizza tonight for a change.
Bad luck has kept me company for the last couple of Games Weeks. I can’t seem to get a break. Injuries and wrong captain pick had become order of the day. Game week
23 Calum Wilson,
25 Maddison and Grealish,
26 Barnes and Rodriguez ( bought them for -8),
then TC failure. Should keep my ft?
Id prob use the trf as the bench options not great this week. You could go Raphina for Barnes and play over Rodriquez?
Can you get Son in for Rodriguez?
Or Saka or Lingard, come to think about it. I’d ditch him rather than roll the transfer.
Or even ditch Rashford for Son and Rodriguez for a cheapo. I don’t often advocate hits but why not? Tidy up a bit.
Best of luck.
Congrats to the site team! The top100(k) is just a hilltop away :good2:
Gents, thoughts on this side? (0.0itb 1FT)
Have only my WC and TC left, so am planning for bgw29. Thinking Shaw and Bruno could go, maybe for to Arsenal lads.
Looks good to me – nothing too obvious amiss and the Ederson pick is smart
When you thinking to play TC? asking for a mate…lol..
Haha! I think I should’ve used it already tbh, now it will be down to a potential Everton or Spurs double or minileague planning
:good: spurs are gonna push it last few GW..I’ll probs save mine..although I threw up a little bit in my mouth watching Kane and son spurn those chances last game..uuurrrgh
If pool dont keep a vs tomorrow I’d lose trend asap. Other then that’s it’s good.
Reguilón for trend frees up nice funds, he plays 29, and might have a dgw too
thanks gavy, this is on my list for next week yes :good:
Hi all,
Who should I be bench Rudiger, Keane or DCL?
Yeah that’s an annoying conflict you have there. Would say Rüdiger over Keane in isolation, but as you also have DCL maybe take the punt and hope they can keep Chelsea at bay – could be a decent differential
Id bench Keane
Hey guys am I gtg here, rolling transfer.
I’d play Rudiger over Coufal for sure
Thanks Smash.
+1
:good:
