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.

Thanks all for answering my conundrum earlier
This’ll be my WC team, hoping Lamela and Redmond keep their places with new players signing!
Thoughts?
good to go
Looking likely to be my wildcard team.
Janmaat will come in for McCauley for GW4. Hojbjerg maybe won’t get many points but I want to have Benteke as I don’t fancy any of the cheap strikers.
Is there a way of downgrading Kos and upgrading a mid?
Otherwise team looks great, similar to mine.
No. Koscielny is a lock in for me.
Actually just thought I could take out McCauley for Marc Wilson of Bournemouth who is 4.0 and hope he starts then can upgrade Hoj to a 5.5
You will be way too thin in defense then. Plus how much extra points do you think a 5,5 mid will get you?
xaoc, I dunno, Mahrez chipped in a couple of points last year 😉
Hi, can’t decide whether to go Coutinho to Barkley, any views? Thanks
Swamp, completely your call mate – fixtures say to swap but we know what Liverpool are capabale of if they turn it on.
Cheers Cookie
Swampster, if you’re around this morning, Coutinho may be rested. Klopp said he has the same problem he had for the Burton game (tight calf or something).
Yeah cheers, decision made!
Why could Gray be suspended?
He’s been charged by the FA for improper conduct.
Sentenced yet? Or what could it be?
I believe he has until the 31st to respond (ie. appeal or accept it) and then I think they decide the severity of the punishment.
Some rumours about it being five games. Seems to draconian to me.
Too*
Firmino to Mirallas!? Am I stupid? Do you think it makes more sense to play it safe with Barkley as I think I’m right in saying that Mirallas’ game time is not certain?
Mirallas would be a good option if safe as Gray to Benteke is what I have my eye on but I would be unable to do it in one move from proceeds raised by Firmino to Barkley.
Early in season I would be playing safe. I gone to Barkley.
cheers bundeena. Think I will. Mirallas for 75-90 minutes every game for £6.5m would be a steal though!
I have 1.2mI TB and no FT left as u can see that probably i will not be able to field 5 defenders if bertrand is fit and friend is not fit. So what should i do ?? should i transfer out friend to baines/stones??
Any suggestion regarding the transfer or any other transfer would be very much appreciated. TIA
All 3 should start, though keep an eye on Friend idk but someone said it here he’s a doubt
