FF247 FPL Team GW7
We go again…
In what was undoubtedly a quiet week all round we scored 43 points in total, which was further damned by the -4 points hit we took to bring in Ezri Konsa (and Mohamed Salah).
So in a week where the average score of 48 meant that anything like 60-70 points was somehow doubly good, we don’t have to concern ourselves with that. We just sit here and reflect that Salah had a goal ruled out for offside (correctly, we don’t pedal anti-VAR nonsense here) and had one off the post to grab us 4 points as Captain whilst Sadio Mane got 8 (which would have been 16!)
We’ve said it from the start… MANE IS MORE EXPLOSIVE! (Slight in-joke, but see last weeks article for reference).
The rest of the team then: the aforementioned Konsa conceded three and along with ‘defensive’ mates; Mat Ryan, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Tyrick Mitchell they scored 7 whole points between them.
Alex McCarthy of Southampton (who we’ve always said is more explosive than Mat Ryan), laughs at us with his 6 points.
Three clean sheets in midfield however – where you don’t really want them – as Saint-Maximin, Son and Bruno all kept out their opponents. Sonny Boy scored against Burnley on Monday and with 11 points accounted for over a quarter of our total points!
A welcome sight was Wolves 1-1 Newcastle on Sunday as in that game two of our strikers combined to provide an assist (Callum Wilson) and a goal and three bonus points (Raul Jimenez).
DCL managed just one point on a day that will surely not make it onto the highlights reel in the ‘Everton FC – Champions 2020/21’ DVD.
43 points then and a drop to 1,942,808 in the Overall Rankings. We go again.
Our GW6 result in full:
Let’s go see what was decided… other than drowning our sorrows.
Our Gameweek 7 Transfer(s)
We come to this gameweek with 1 Free Transfer and 0.7mln in the bank.
Unanimously, nothing. We voted to roll the transfer and review next week with 2FT’s to hand. Originally we had planned to ‘sort Max out’ (not in a Phil Mitchell way) but with The Champions Elect Everton looking a bit shaky and shorn of a few defensive assets he gets a one week pardon.
The main two – Salah and Son – unsurprisingly dominated the captain discussion. With 4 votes to one with one abstaining (or being too busy to vote, we’re not quite sure), the armband goes to *drumroll*
Son at home to Brighton! In the case something happens to the Korean, Salah picks up the duties with the VC.
To confirm then we have SAVED THIS WEEK’S TRANSFER
Captain – SON
Vice Captain – SALAH

***NEW ARTICLE – FF247 SITE TEAM GW7***
A poor week but when that happens we simply go all we go all Brendan & Stevie.
Best of luck to the site team (and all those in it, of course!). Fingers crossed we can all get those seemingly rare green arrows!
Don’t know if this has already been posted, but it’s worth knowing anyway…
The great David Munday, the man who has single-handedly destroyed the once great FFScout site.
I agree with you there Init, greed is a terrible thing.
They had something which was likeable and wholesome. Right now it just looks cheap, self-serving and self-aggrandising. Twitter click-bait at its worst, for the sake of click-bait. It’s a real shame, IMHO.
Makes me laugh that they’ve hoovered up all the so called ‘twitterati’, most of whom have been there, done that, with their own website attempts and failed.
It’s like The Day of the Daffodils.
I wish they could have been stronger and continued to stand aside us as a bastion of the original concept of an FPL tips site. Apparently not.
I knew Munday would ruin it for them. And he has.
I’m not using them that much, and just watch a couple of videos from time to time.
What has changed so much?
Also was Munday known before?
Saving transfers? Pah.
You suggested it! You’ll be on stage next week singing the I’s if McGinn bangs!
I agreed it. I wasn’t gonna get away with suggesting another hit was I? Or was U 😉
It’s usually automatic :biggun:
I was tempted to replace Lamptey using the 1.0 ITB but maybe it’s better to roll and do something with 2 FT next week :scratch_one-s_head:
Ivan, there are rumblings from Wolves fans that Saiss may miss out.
I’d keep Lamptey in and use the luxury of 2fts next week if necessary.
Thanks Cookie, will do :good:
Start Mitchell over him anyway and then you’ve got a 50/50 chance of either being there, both with a terrible fixture
Good idea Init, don’t expect anything from neither but not much else can be done.
I’d maybe start Mitchell ahead of him. Both will probably concede, but I’d put Spurs to score more than Wolves. I imagine it’s the case that Mitchell will either start or not play at all too, with the number of injuries Palace have in defence at the mo, so you should be OK there. To be honest, there’s one point in it! No teams are fond of keeping clean sheets at the moment, so I’d just roll the transfer anyway.
That is what I am going to do Swirly. Apart from the first 3 weeks Lamptey has been useless since. It could be tempting to keep for the home game vs Burnley but I still think it’s time for him to go.
That’s what I just said Swirly, just didn’t waffle about it :rofl:
I suppose that’s the difference in a nutshell between a fixtures / capo writer and a tips one though :hippo:
The devil is in the detail :cool2:
Didn’t see it as it was TLDR :rofl: #1point :wink2:
No idea what TLDR means but I’ll just say yes!
You have google
I wish! Would be a very rich man!
I was going to switch Gabriel to Kilman and roll my second free transfer but with news of Castagne I may need to reassess! Who should I bring in for Castagne? 2FTs and 0.2 to spend.
Igy, a Spurs defender maybe?
My luck, I’d pick whichever one Jose wants to bench! :big-lol:
I’d do Castagne to Kilman, then play him, Chilwell and toss a coin between Mitchell and Lewis!
Hi i need ur support
Gk Mccarthy
DF TAA justin lascelles
MF salah son grealish podense
Fwd kane werner DCL
Subs : steer ward (crystal) Taylor & stephens (bur)
2FT 0.5 bank
What u recommend me to do dears?
Werner to Ings and carry the other, if anything at all.
Good idea u think of bamford .and save more money?
Depends if you are desperate to save money for anything in particular. Otherwise it’s Ings all day long. And twice on a Sunday.
I’d do Taylor to Kilman and then play him ahead of Lascelles or Justin. Roll the other transfer and then you have two to use next week :good:
I am worried of kilman being benched
What do u think of villa defense ?
