FF247 FPL Team GW6
Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW6
In our defence…
It’s fair to say that when we decided to start the season with a double up of Liverpool at the back we were hoping for more than just the solitary clean sheet, and we certainly weren’t expecting that they would have conceded an average of nearly two per game (albeit it somewhat skewed by that Villa thrashing). The hapless duo got us two points this week, between them. We can then only assume that a certain Mr Pickford had seen our team and decided that enough was enough…
They weren’t alone though as Ryan and Mitchell served only to double the entire total of our back-line to four points. Taylor sat laughing at us from the bench with five.
Things got a bit better up top with goals galore as Havertz, Jimenez and DCL all chipped in, Bruno got all sorts of points (both positive and negative) and our Captain Son did similar to give us a pleasing 26 from the armband.
All that left us on 66 points and a small green arrow which saw us jump up to roughly 1.4m overall. Slowly, slowly and all that…
Our GW5 Result…
With 1FT and £2.8m ITB let’s go see what was decided…
Our GW6 Transfer(s)
Mane is more explosive
OK so this is a bit of an in-joke here – one which precedes this particular author’s joining of the site team – however I like to pile on when there’s a good ribbing to be dished out. One member of the site team once famously claimed the explosiveness factor led him to pick Mane over Salah. Right before Salah scored a bazillion points against Watford and Mane scored ONE assist.
To the present day and the same opportunity now presents itself. Mane or Salah? Salah or Mane? Luckily the democratic will was seen out and Salah comes in for the Site Team this week.
Oh and Virgil van Dijk – we need to sort him out (not in that way Jordan!)
In order to accommodate the transfer of Salah in for Kai Havertz, we needed to downgrade VVD to a 5.3mln or less and whilst Roman Saiss of Wolves was discussed quite extensively, we have taken a look at the bigger picture and we realise that in all truth, we are going to have to upgrade our fourth midfielder sooner or later. With cash in mind we have looked towards Aston Villa and we have chosen to go for Konsa. It might not be a glamour purchase but Villa do have a decent looking run of games ahead.
To confirm then we have SOLD Kai Havertz AND Virgil van Dijk and BOUGHT Salah AND Konsa at a cost of -4 points
Captain – Mohamed Salah
We hope he kicks off his stint with us with a bang against Sheffield United and in case the worst happens, Son of Spurs at Burnley holds the vice.

Hi guys,
Big dilemma before the deadline regarding the captain – Kane or Salah? I have them both, give me your honest option.
Thanks,
I still can’t figure this one out. On Mo currently.
Mo for me.
+1
Mo
Definitely Kane for me. In super form, well rested and with 4 goals in the last 2 away games against Burnley.
My wildcard team. Would you change any of the defenders? Due to low team value can’t spend more on say Saiss to Chilwell which I would have liked
Keep Saiss, mate. Maybe Dallas to Lamptey?
.2 off this sadly. Leeds actually look alright at the back after those crazy opening two weeks
I apologise for reposting this but I am still undecided and there is not much time left.
I think I am leaning towards Werner to Kane but that will make Bruno for Barnes slightly out of reach which I also fancy.
Or just hold…I don’t know really.
What do you guys think?
1 FT, 4.7 M ITB.
If in doubt, do nothing.
I am always in doubt, GP, that’s the problem :laugh2:
Still Werner to Kane here.
Looking at the next 3-4 fixtures, and considering Kane’s high ownership, that might be the sensible move.
Yeah Werner to Kane
I haven’t even thought about my defense this week. Am I good to go here?
Looks pretty decent to me.
As good as anybody is mate! Got the feeling that those 3 are in a lot of teams!
What to do with the team? Almost forgot tonight’s game.
Got 1ft and 0 in the bank.
Here he is! Mr Last Minute
Looks fine Raz. :good:
Bump Anguissa up one, assuming he plays.
So I shouldn’t use my ft?
Nope, save!
Your team value must be insane haha, that frontline and midfield is crazy good.
That’s what you get for missing the first deadline. You need to wildcard early. Lol. But it’s good. And year, that can be handy in the future. I think most of us had a show start.
Quick question: Sell James (Chelsea) or save the FT? He is 2nd on my bench. Other defs. TAA, Saiss, Lamptey and Mitchell (Bench).
Not 100% sure if Saiss and Mitchell will start.
Why wouldn’t they start? Mitchell I get. But Saiss?
Ideally Saiss should start, but if Mercal plays as wingback (and better in that role than Saiss), its between Kilmann and Saiss for the CB spot.
Saiss should be fine. If James is on your bench just now I wouldn’t worry about transferring him this week.
Thank you and Good luck all. Saving the FT then.
