FF247 FPL Team GW3
Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW3
¡Arriba, Arriba!
Thank the good lord for Mitrović, for our cheap and nasty striker was our highest scorer this week with his brace at Leeds leading to a dozen very gratefully received points. Aside from him it was our men at the back who kept us afloat with clean sheets from Ryan, TAA and VVD while Taylor chipped in with an assist. Captain Aubameyang contributed a mere assist at home to the Hammers and will be lucky to survive the chop. Midfield maestros Havertz and Saint-Maximin hardly troubled the scorers while Vardy and Wilson weren’t much better. In fact, when Leicester score four and Vardy isn’t involved in one bit of it then you probably know the writing is on the wall for your GW. Our score of 53 was below par and has brought us our first red arrow of the season. It won’t be the last! We go into GW3 with a rank of 2,424,028, but we’re ahead of Kop and Cookie at least. We have much to ponder, as do they!
Our GW3 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided…
Our GW3 Transfer(s)
Gameweeks 1 & 2 have been relatively peaceful and controversy free at FF247 HQ. The ‘virtual WC’ in GW1 was agreed upon surprisingly quickly and the decision to carry a free transfer in GW2 was unanimous. The calm before the inevitable storm perhaps…
We won’t have been alone in the pre-determined decision to transfer out Auba for KdB in GW3. The only variable for many will have been seeing the latter appear fit and healthy in GW2, the fact that he did but also didn’t miss a step and somehow looked even better than ever sealed that particular deal.
And then in stormed a Jimenez lover, and he wasn’t much up for leaving until we all joined in his Mexican orgy…
Poor old Vardy was on the block but he got some love to stay. Timo Werner was mentioned as an alternative, but he was deemed to be too premature, and such was our cactus holders passion and determination to press harder that the rest of the cast were left naked wearing only sombreros and sipping Desperados quicker than they could say… albur.
Something to do with his next three fixtures being West Ham, Fulham and Leeds, apparently. And their propensity to be leaky.
A -4 was considered to bring a certain Colombian newbie to the party but that was shelved until next week. The feeling being that he will climax at home to Brighton as opposed to at the Palace this week. Which would just be rude.
To confirm then we have SOLD Auba & Vardy and BOUGHT KdB & Jimenez
Captain – KdB
The strength in conviction wasn’t so strong when it came to the armband though as KdB romped away with this one, Jimenez coming second.

Good to go?
Or Ryan instead of McCarthy & KDB captain instead of Son?…
Thanks!
I’ve gone Ryan and Son as cap
Looks good Shadow.
I actually want the site team to go Ryan as GK but McCarthy won the day.
Captain is personal choice mate. You have some good options, none less than Son.
Good to go
Smash, how is s this team, kindly share your feedback. Best of luck.
Looks good not sold on Pickford. Can’t argue against the rest. I’d say take a chance on Forster instead of Nyland just in case he becomes number one
Thanks all, abit concerned about the whole after the lords mayor show with captaining Son this week!
Last question… promise!!
Play Castagne Vs City or Mitchell Vs Man U?
Mitchell has Everton, no?
If so, him.
I guess it’s time to finish my wildcard. How much time left?
Zaha or Rodriguez?
Rodriguez
Morning Razman.
Let’s see your squad then?
What do people make of my WC?
I have .9m in the bank, so could invest, but I do like the idea of upgrading Ryan to Mendy at some stage
Obviously, I need to change my captain!

Good starting lineup and although there are a few long term doubts pn some of your defenders, you might just be OK for a while. I like it.
Keep in mind with Delap on your bench, you are cutting your throat on the Salah to Sterling move if that’s something you may want.
Take Forster out of there – he’s not even first choice. Bring him to Steele and you should have Brighton covered.
Thanks!
Thought process for Delap was that I was going to get Jesus and go 3-4-3 until he was injured. No I kept Son instead. At some stage I will revert back to 3-4-3, likely selling Son, Foden, or James for a 4.5m, and upgrading Delap.
Out of interest, do you think there is any chance Delap starts anything of these games? Did not watch the League Cup, but heard he did alright?
Also, with Forster, I had McCarthy originally, and just thought that if he ended up getting dropped, a 4m starter would be nice
Yeah but Angus Gunn is there too and he might play for Southampton if McCarthy were to drop.
On the other point about Delap, it’s a lot to ask a youngster to start and lead the line in a premier league match this early. I think Sterling will play advanced.
Okay then. I think it comes down to this.
Players I am unsure of Foden & DCL or James Rodríguez & Mitro, Martinez could be Ryan/McCarthy, Lamptey/Taylor.
I’d love to have Bruno/Martial, Jimenez, Zaha but couldn’t find a way to fit them.
Team A
Team B
I’d prefer A. I’m taking a chance on Forster the Saints fans are calling for McCarthy to be dropped
I think I prefer A Tornado.
Also, aren’t you as well taking Steer of Villa for your reserve GK?
Thanks GP! I am on Button actually, but I hope I’d never need him. Aston Villa have 4 GKs in their team and I am afraid their prices might start dropping, especially when Heaton is back which is actually my real concern with Martinez.
Martinez’ place to lose mate. Heaton isn’t taking over from him.
Rodriguez or Barnes?
Barnes for me I think.
Rodriguez for me
Rodriguez
Rod
