FF247 Site Team Game-week 3 FPL Tips
Welcome to the FF247 Site Team Game-week 3 FPL Tips article. A quick revisit to GW2 and we had a decent week scoring 71 points, which was predominantly due to our forwards’ performances – Andre Gray, Zlatan and Captain Kun all did the business with Antonio Valencia’s clean sheet our only other real contribution – sadly we left Gareth McAuley on the bench! Bizarrely, despite beating the average score of 57, we still saw red arrows, but we are well used to them by now, so all is good. Our rank is 46,697 which we are pleased with and we have two free transfers to waste.
Transfer decision: we have sold Roberto Firmino and bought Ross Barkley and held a transfer.
So Firmino has gone for his Merseyside counterpart, who has begun the season with a goal and an assist, seems to be enjoying life under Ronald Koeman and Everton’s fixtures now look promising on paper which we have probably just jinxed for them. Firmino can consider himself slightly unlucky to be given just two matches but with Andre Gray facing a potential ban we felt it wise to raise a bit of cash in case we need to replace Gray soon.
Our captain is Sergio Aguero and vice-captain is Zlatan Ibrahimovic
How one splits them we don’t know, both are great choices for this week and indeed most weeks. We have gone with the home player, Aguero, who has scored in eight of his last nine league matches and loves to score at the Etihad.
The only other decision we had to make was whether to play Pape Souare or Gareth McAuley – we plumped for Souare purely on the grounds that we have Ben Foster in goal and weren’t keen on doubling up on West Brom.

*** NEW ARTICLE ***
The FF247 committee has met and the site team has been selected for GW3.
inittowinit
Sensible decision, all things considered. Same with capo.
deanlive
How much left have you got in your bank lads?
inittowinit
Looks like 7.4m. You’re not copying it are you? I really wouldn’t bother!
Smash10
Was it an easy decision to sell Firmino? I’m having doubts and not as confident about it hence why I still have him currently but guess I’ll swap him
Cookie
It was unanimous but I think everyone knows the risks and that Firmino could well make us regret it.
It’s basically a play of form and fixtures and releases some cash of we need it.
Smash10
Thanks good to know.
Mitro
Evening all!
How we are getting on?
Currently on a WC and I’m looking to go with this team for this GW, what do you reckon? as ever your thoughts, suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
Smash10
Looks good. I think Love will lose his place to Manquillo. Defence maybe a bit weak but not sure if I can talk there
serendipity
I think it looks good but then I have 10 of the same players in my WC team
Mitro
Or do I go with this?
Smash10
I like Ozil though
Mitro
Me too
gunners
Surely as an arsenal fan you have to have at least one arsenal player?
Mitro
Gunners – follow your head not your heart when it comes to FF! That being said though I do fancy Ozil to have a good GW!
cole1124
I prefer this side to the first one bud. Just a thought, you could switch walker with Baines due to Evertons fixtures
dlynton
Who to captain out of Hazard, Aguero or Ibra? (could be worse)
serendipity
Evening all. Tweeking my WC team. Wondering whether to downgrade defence to get Ozil instead of Caz. Any thoughts really appreciated
Cookie
Seren, don’t think you should dgrade your defence, you’ll be stuck with a load of 4 & 4.5mlns.
serendipity
Not far off it now!
Horse
@Serendipiity
Not sure how long Holding will be nailed on for.
How about swapping DDG and Holding for Heaton and Shaw/Valencia
serendipity
Yes agree about Holding, will have a look at swapping out DDG. I do hate the weekly dilemma of which keeper to choose though.
PeterPan
Sorry for the repost, seems I posted it and the new article was up
So…. currently have 2FT’s and not a fan of letting it go to waste haha, but seems my only option.
DDG
Williams Souare Stones
Redmond Townsend Hazard Firmino
Gray Ibra Kun (C)
Jaku Walker Fletcher Amat
0.0m itb and 2FT
Maybe Firmino to Barkley? Firmino dropped to 8,4m
Smash10
I may do that move but I’m a bit surprised by all the Barkley love. Is he that good
PeterPan
Smash,
Form and fixtures… his playing like a striker
Smash10
Yeah I guess may go with the crowd on this one.
PeterPan
Smash,
I also dont want to get rid of Firmino…
We all know what Pool can do when they feel like it…
