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

Good to go?
Thinking next week might be the week I pull the trigger on the wildcard, depending how this weekend goes!
I like it, don’t see a need for a WC currently.
If you have any FTs you could consider a Mitro/Mitchell replacement.
Cheers, yeah – I think I’m maybe a bit transfixed on not having Kane :wacko:
Makes sense. It could be for Sterling and a fwd.
Maybe a mid range option in the 5-6ish range and mitro out, or could be for Ings and that would allow a more pricey mid option.
Good to go? Would you play Mitchell or Bellerin?
I’d play Mitchell. Will either start or not play at all and so Bellerin can then come in if needs be.
Yeah, guess i’ll do that….
You are keeping Castagne? (Asking for a friend :wink2
No ft’s left so i’m keeping him for now…
Fair, and good luck – looks good!
Thanks! The same to you!
Cracking stuff lads, good luck for the team in GW7!
What to do here?
Swirly kindly recommended Robbo+cheap mid in for Soucek and Castagne.
If I downgrade Soucek to a 4.4mid (e.g Riedewald) I can afford TAA, else I just need a playing 4.7mid (or below) for Robbo. Anguissa or Bissouma spring to mind.
– Which would you recommend?
– Other ideas? are also greatly appreciated, might add!
Could also do Mitchell to a 3.9 and Castagne to Robbo could also work?
It’s possible the defence could be an issue with Castagne out, Mitchell a doubt and Saiss fighting for his place. A pool defender seems a good option. Not sure any 4.4mids are nailed so could end up with a non player. I would just go for Robertson and Bissoumu/Anguissa. Or Saiss to Kilman and Castagne to TAA.
Cheers Stone Frog
CA : “Jonjoe Kenny is back, James will not be available and Lucas and Richarlison are suspended..James has a little problem and he needs to rest and will be back for the next game”
He said that last week too :rofl:
Well… Are you keeping him init?
Looks like it!
Great article lads.
Like nearly everyone I had a poor week last week despite the team looking well on paper.
Currently have 2 FT and 0.7 million in the bank…
Thinking of Jimmy rod to Zaha due to his favourable fixtures, I reckon he could grab a goal or two.
And using the other free transfer to ship maupay out. Any suggestions as to for who and thoughts on that plan welcome
How much is left for that fwd spot?
Hi innit. 7.9mill for that spot if after I bring in Zaha
Is it worth taking a 4 point hit to replace Rodriguez ?
He should only be missing one game so probably (hopefully!) not worth it
Hopefully Ancelloti is playing mind games again this week, and he gets to play.
