FF247 FPL Team GW34
A Very Important Message
In full support of the Premier League’s calls for social media companies to do more to stop online abuse, we at FF247 will join in the social media boycott that is planned for later today and this weekend.
We stand with and join the Premier League, other leagues, governing bodies and organisations across English football and wider sport to boycott social media and demand change.
Therefore in line with the Premier League and its clubs, we will switch off our Facebook and Twitter accounts across a full fixture programme, from 15:00 BST on Friday 30 April until 23:59 BST on Monday 3 May.
We will post on to our Live Match Chat the team news taken directly from club websites where possible.
Challenge it. Report it. Change it.

Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW34
Hit and miss. 48pts we scored last week, but all dedicated FF247 Site Team followers (are there any left?!) will recall that we did take an 8pt hit, so it was actually net 40pts. Still better than the average of just 36, but only just.
Our new players were very much a mixed bag. We broke the bank for TAA because Liverpool would smash Newcastle, or at least keep a clean sheet. They did neither. 2pts. 3 if you include Jota. But it’s ok we still had Captain Vardy to come on Monday night.
A clean sheet for Azpi was welcome even though it ruined Lingard’s week, while Bruno’s poor run continued vs Leeds. Our Villa trio combined for 8pts vs West Brom, but we had at least brought in Pereira who scored 10 points and saved us.
Onto Monday and the Vardy party. Or not as it turned out! Some young lad called Nacho was the hero, and ours with a 12 pointer.
We benched clean sheet stars Digne and Dallas (obviously) for some of the aforementioned losers. And now no Kane this week. Unless we buy him back. Surely not? Read on…..
We ended with a red arrow and now sit barely inside the 300k mark.
Our GW33 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided…
Our GW34 Transfer(s)
When the team was put up for discussion the obvious question mark was, as mentioned already, the absence of Harry Kane.
No way to get him in a single move so we were taking a hit if we were to get to him. A cry went up “we don’t need a transfer” and although true, we sought out a way (via a -4) that we could acquire Mr K. Jota or Trent could be downgraded with Vardy making way but with the fixtures for both Liverpool and Leicester, we fancied holding these.
We knew we had Son and he usually works hand in glove with Kane. We haven’t had Kane for a while so we’ve brassed it out.
NO KANE.
To confirm then we have SAVED OUR FREE TRANSFER
Captain – KELECHI IHEANACHO
Yeah we know we have Son but sometimes democracy wins. Three votes for the Nigerian and he beats Son in a first past the post race. Your author was one of the Son voters but is not at all concerned in giving the Leicester man the armband this week so that in itself tells you that he’s a sound choice.
Son will carry the vice captaincy should anything happen to ‘Kele/Itchy/Nacho/Ian’ whatever nickname floats your boat.

ITB: 1.8m
Looking at doing Vardy->Kane and was going to roll the other FT as thought it was gonna be dgw35. As that doesnt look like happening, is it worth using the other FT, bearing in mind I would only have 0.2m ITB once I get Kane back.
According to BBC website, Keane has recovered from his hamstring injury.
He would be my captain this week.
Thoughts please.
inittowinit
I should hope so, that was about two years ago
#ankle
Yeah I’d do it.
hammerfan_lm
Init – as in Michael Keane!!!
Would you roll the other FT, or use it?
If the dgw is gw36 surely I can use the FT, buti dont have much wonga to put it on anyone
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Who are you suggesting for the other FT then hammers and we’ll tell you if we thin kit is worth it?
hammerfan_lm
Well GP, if I was to use the other FT, would be maybe on Leno, for either Pickford, Guaita so that I had 2 potential goalies playing both games in the dgw36 (if that is confirmed)
And I bring in either, downgrading Leno will give me an extra 0.2m
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Do you have BB left?
hammerfan_lm
Yep, BB is only chip left.
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Perhaps better taking an extra transfer into next week now with the announcement (see below).
hammerfan_lm
Thanks GP for this update, much appreciated.
Kane in, and other FT will be rolled.
Little Red Lacazette
Refined. This is how I am going & rolling FT. No bench defenders.
inittowinit
Should be fine without.
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
You’ll be OK with that.
Little Red Lacazette
Cheers all.

DGW35 and BGW36 confirmed. Ben Crellin’s predictions were correct:

Little Red Lacazette
Zaha is calling to get him in next wk so that he can troll me one more time.
KI
Thanks, GP. Now, to start weaving the combinations and permutations. Boy, do I wish I’d saved my FH.
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
We all do.
I would try to have two FTs going into next week if you possibly can.
Otieno
It going to be essential to have 2FT for BGW36 if you don’t have FH left so save save save !
Mitro
Afternoon,
What should I do with this lot?
1FT & 0.9ITB
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Save FT, looks fine.
Mitro
Thank you GP
ODT
I would roll the FT as I have heard confirmation that the DGW is 35.
Mitro
Thank you
Brookyboy
Yo Mitro,probably save it if you can restrain yourself !
Mitro
I was thinking gundo to pereira but I could roll 😉
ODT
Play Jota or Pulisic?
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
I would go as you have it there.
ODT
Thanks! Crossing my fingers for something great from Pulisic this weekend. He seems to have found some sort of stride again.
Little Red Lacazette
Just as you are.
GoalMachine
I have 6 players in 1 match this week – 3 from Pool (TAA, Salah, Jota), 3 from UTD (Shaw, Bruno, Greenwood).
Play all 6? and bench Watkins?
Or, Play 5? and bench one of Jota or Greenwood or Mount?
Plain Wood would have been fine, but I have the Green version.
Mart (Fors)
Taa, Shaw, Coady, (Hold, Rudi)
Sala,Bruno,Jota,Gwood,Mount
Kane,Ihenacho,(Watkins)
Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
I would bench Forster, Rudiger, Shaw and Jota I think.
