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.

Morning
This is my team for GW3, really thinking of doing a -4:
Martial to Werner or Jimenez
Or
Bruno to Son
Which is the better option?
Stick. Both of those could easily score big themselves. Good luck!
Yeah, I’d stick. Thinking back to what United were like at the end of last season, they surely can’t play again like they did the two games just gone.
Whats up with all the love for Podence? Haven´t been able to watch any of the wolves matches yet so I haven´t been able to make up my own opinion. Obviously he has two assists in two games. Do you expect him to score points on the same level as, say Zaha (meaning providing high value for his pricetag)?
Seems the have the number ten role in a team much better than palace at the moment. Hopefully he keeps it!
Looked really good in the two games I’ve seen. Wolves fans think he’s the next big thing
“Nuno said on his rise to prominence: “We have to realise that Daniel joined us in the middle of last season, just before the terrible situation of the pandemic.
“That disrupted the understanding and what we had in mind, but I think he finished the season well.
“And he has started this season very, very well.
“I think he is growing and understanding better the idea we have.
“He has talent, he has quality, and he’s a hard-worker who has been able to perform well for the team.
“We hope that this continues – a normal growth of a player inside the dynamic of the team.”
Final check, I promise! Good to go? Stick with Brewster/Podence or go Bamford 4.5 mid? Defence ok??
:good2:
As it is
Done!!! Cheers all. Good luck.
Nice looking team, Banjo!
Solid Banjo
banjo – are you banking on Brewster moving?Do you want to be holding that Liverpool spot?
Don’t question me now, I’m done!!!! :big-lol:
I would not be bothered by extra Liverpool spot anyway
DCL or Rodriguez? The 0.4 will just sit in the bank with the DCL option. The Rodriguez option will have Brewster on bench
I see DCL outscoring Rodriquez. I also think Richarlison is being heavily overlooked
+1
I prefer Hamez. He’s just a much better football player.
Rodriguez for me, Smash – but you know I’m not that convinced on DCL, rightly or wrongly!
Same dilemma, Smash! I think Rodríguez is way better in real life but I genuinely don’t know FPL wise. DCL is there for the tap ins and headers, and not much more but with Richarlison, Rodriguez, Digne, Coleman all creating chances and delivering perfect crosses that might be just enough to outscore Hames.
However, I think I am about to part ways with DCL cause I am worried about his hamstring issues and that will help me fit in Werner in my team.
I guess what I am saying is: IDK :laugh2:
Good to see the site team holding the WC
What do you think, is this good to go?
Have -1FT :mosking: and am contemplating a WC in gw5.
Yeah, looks good to go
Dane, looks great. The Mahrez pick will bring the storm :yes:
Without Gabriel he will be nailed and we know what he is capable of 😉
Let’s hope so Ivan! Really thought he’d start last week because of Citey’s late game, alas I never learn! Instead I missed JRod’s haul, oups!
Did you hold your WC too Ivan?
Yes Dane, see post 45
Thanks guys! :friends: Fingers crossed for a beserker werner!
Please rate my team below
WC activated
Whom to play also captain ?? Also Jiménez or Werner
khaledhesham, looks good. I would play Zaha instead of Costa this week. As for a captain, the crowd will be split between Werner and KDB but Salah can easily overscored them at Anfield.
I have 0.7 in bank how can i get Werner or leave Jiménez ?
You could downgrade McCarthy to Steer to free up that extra cash? Would just mean you’re relying on one keeper. Or downgrade Wood? That said, Jiminez is not a bad pick at all.
Not many ways. If you want to keep Jimenez and get Werner for DCL you will need to downgrade Zaha. The same if you want to replace Jim.
Podence and Werner or Jiménez and Zaha ??
khaledhesham, this is very hard call, as both pairs are great. It looks like your mind is set on Werner, so it has to be him and Podence.
