Welcome to our mid-month FantasyFootball 247 Leagues round-up.
Most of us initially will have got into fantasy football through work or friends leagues. Nothing wrong with that, but to really challenge yourself, how about you test your mettle against other Fantasy Football 247 regulars?
Season and Monthly League winners will be awarded a place in our Hall Of Fame – more on that to follow!
The Overall Members League (full season)
With a solid 85 points, Barntons Bashers retain their top position in the main league after GW16. Holding a global ranking of 1,473 and with 1,078 points, they are having a great season, and we are glad to have them setting the bar in our league. Herewegoagain are close behind having moved up to second spot with 1,074 points, and only a further 2 points back, third spot is occupied by Shane-PAIN FC on 1,072 points. New entrant, Robin Van Pricey, are straight in at fourth spot with 1,068 pts, having delivered an impressive 97 points this game week – the highest score of this week’s top 10. James101 make up the top 5, with 1,062 points.
A mere 14 points behind are a 3 man chasing pack, containing second season wonder Michu’s Grassy Ass, and two very experienced managers, Powerful Potty Fc and Cookie’s Monsters, all on 1,048 points. Site regular, Milk and Busquets, follows 4 points off, on 1,044 points, with Norfulk-in-chance closing out our top ten on 1,039. Other notable movers this week include the perhaps misnamed duo, Not so SPECIAL ones and Real Morbid, who both managed to score 103 points, almost double the game-week average of 55 points, moving up to 24th and 31st spots respectively. And no, no Potty Prizes will be awarded for guessing who they captained!
The Monthly League
In top spot at the mid-month point is X Treme, on a very impressive 275 points for the month, including 91 for this game-week. The team’s overall ranking isn’t so high as yet, but with this kind of performance and a team value of £110m we feel that’s going to change fast. In second spot, on 268 points for the month are The Untouchables. Falling to third spot, but only 5 points behind, Killer instincts delivered 263 points in December to date. In fourth spot, on 261 points, are our season league leaders, Barntons Bashers, and Real Morbid rise to fifth on 254 points, lifted by their outstanding game-week.
The Greatest FC enter our rankings at 6, narrowly missing out on a ton, scoring 99 points (unlucky!). In 7th spot this month is James101, with Pimp my Side in eighth spot, at 247 points. Closing out our top ten are Inter ma’nan and Monkeys Nuts.
Many thanks to elleffcee for working out the monthly table – you may notice a slight difference in a couple of the rankings, this is because the monthly charts that are automatically generated do not take all hits into account – clearly these should be factored in to show who’s really performing best.

James 101
I see you and the Butler have been working behind the scene’s????
Great Article indeed…
But Powerful Potty Fc a very experienced Manager…
Only my 2nd season.. But I do know my stuff.
That’s why…..
I have bought Hooper for Mwk 17.
And Wellbeck joins my empire for Boxing Day.
Potty
All together now…
Happy Birthday to Bench,
He is 40, what a Wrench,
Chris just joined the AA,
Drank 12 cans……
WayyHayy.
Have a great day buddy.
Big hairy man Hugs.

Potty
40? Hes an old man now!
They say life begins at 40, I wouldn know!
Good new for Koscielny owners. He might already be back for boxing day according to L’Equipe!! And they are quite spot on normally with their info.
So this is my current squad:
Howard, Daniels
Terry, Jagielka, Baker, Mertesacker, Gabbidon
Yaya Toure, Ramsey, Sessegnon, Shelvey, Whittingham
Aguero, Suarez, Rooney
1) I’m thinking Aguero to Lukaku or Negrado. Thoughts, or other suggestions?
2) If I can, I think I’ll also do Sessegnon to Hazard for a -4 pointer. Thoughts?
3) Have I missed something?
Finally back home from my holiday, a lot of FPL to catch up on!
Still new here so I messed up with my reply
I’m sure you’ll find it…
Already used my FT to do Aguero -> Negredo
Just wondered if anyone, maybe Liverpool fans had an insight on Coutinho and his lack of points?
Is he playing in a different position to last year, or just getting unlucky?
Thinking of taking a 4pt hit and taking out Amalfitano which gives me 8.7 to spend and bring in Coutinho.
Worth it?
Hi Milk and Busquets!
Here is my opinion
1) I had this same ‘problem’ and decided to go with Lukaku as Everton has some nice fixtures during december. Negredo should do just fine also so I don’t think you can go wrong choosing between them.
2)I would lose Sessegnon as I think WBA will really struggle. Hazard should be good for long term. Have you thought about Walcott? Was great last season and looking good getting 90min against City. I would suggest Silva but you already have Yaya so I think it is better getting Hazard or Walcott.
Hi SOover, thanks for the input. Only problem with getting Walcott in, is that I have Ramsey already and no Chelsea attacking coverage.. The Lukaku / Negrado choice is a bit of a one or the other..
