FF247 Site Team News Gameweek 9
Midfield Misery
Welcome to FF247 Site Team News Gameweek 9.
We had an okay week last week. A green arrow is always positive and we got a nice 600k rise thanks to our 66 points in GW8. We now sit at 4.7 mil, our highest rank of the season so far…
We only had 4 players that actually did anything for us this week so I’ll name them all. Dubravka with 9 points, Cucurella with 8, Munoz with 10 and captain Haaland with 26 points. It is great to have some solid scores on the board but the rest of the team returned 1’s and 2’s which is not ideal.
Hopefully we can turn it all around and keep rising up the ranks!
Our Gameweek 8 Result

We have 0.2 in the bank and 3 free transfers to use ahead of GW9. Let’s go see what was decided….
Our GW9 Transfer(s)
Well the time ran out for a few of our players and the guillotine was brought out. For the chopping block was Reijnders, who hasn’t been hitting 60 minutes and Mo the frustrating who has been struggling this year with the new incomings.
Saka was the obvious replacement for Salah but to replace the City man was Enzo Fernandes at Chelsea. This did give us a slight issue as we needed to drop one of our 3 Chelsea players. Guiu was the easy option so in came Woltemade who has been on fire since he joined the Geordies.
We had a lot of options for the armband this week actually. We decided to go with a difference in Woltemade.
To confirm then we have SOLD Salah, Reijnders and Guiu and BOUGHT Saka, Enzo and Woltemade
Captain – Woltemade

PREDICTED LINE-UPS

Back by popular demand! Well, sort of… Drafthound have changed their line-up approach this season and what it means for us is that we are no longer able to display a live feed of it on here due to some technical difficulties. That said, what they have done looks great and is still only a click away so if you want to access those they are HERE

Bold moves.
Agreed, but maybe it’s “go big or go home” time.
This is what I am going with, I did

Garner > Rice
Gyökeres > Bowen
João Pedro > Woltemade

I’m tossing Bowen out and you’re bringing him in. Hammers looked awful but maybe you will have luck with him.
Think I will roll it and reasses next week. What say ye?

That’s a good team ODT.
Yeah looks fine, I am going to hold Salah until he goes to AFCON unless something serious happens, if anyone is going to turn Liverpool around it’s him surely? Really with all the cash tied up in him there is only really Saka or Palmer (when he returns) to replace him with.
Cheers folks!
Who is more likely to score this week, Bowen or Pedro?
That’s tough. Bowen is okay but WH as a whole have looked awful and Pedro’s form is off but against Sunderland so maybe time for redemption. Pretty much a coin toss if you ask me.
I did Pedro > Bowen so I hope the latter, but honestly I really don’t know, Pedro has done nothing but should be making hay while Palmer is out, because when he’s back Pedro’s chances will be even more limited, Bowen has Nuno as a manager and we know he’s a good manager, Everton away (with Everton’s form) was never going to be easy, they were never going to get anything against Arsenal, but losing to Brentford was the real shock imo, maybe that was the kick they needed?

JPedro-Woltemade or just roll the transfers?
Is my captain ok?
Thoughts please

Captain is fine.
I feel I must apologize for suggesting Pedro to you last week, I have since dropped João Pedro for Woltemade and Gyökeres for Bowen.
I think Woltemade is a sensible move.
It’s fine mate. It happens. Alot of players have been hit and miss this season. He has been one of them.
You can guarantee we ditch Pedro and he will score. I want Bowen – he will score. It’s how my season has been going lately. If I ditch Salah, he will score. If I keep him, he will blank. It’s the FF gods laughing at us
