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

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

Hey all.
2 FT and 3m ITB.
Already did Salah to Gordon.
Thinking whether I should also do Lacroix sweedie or VDV to Cucurella?
Or anything else?

I’m giving JP another chance against SUN!
Lacroix has awesome fixtures after Arsenal. I would only swap him out for an upgrade to Munoz. Richards and Guehi are cheaper alternatives. Guehi really outscored himself so far this season. Munoz is awesome so if you can get any, get him. If I can’t get him I’ll go for the cheap option in Richards. But you already have Lacroix, so keep, I would say.
Gordon is an interesting transfer, most seem to go for Wolt. Gordon is on penalties, which always gives a little extra boost. Considering Gravenbergh to Enzo myself and maybe even Reijnders to Bruno or Gordon for a hit. 😉
What is your ranking? In some H2H match we faced each other a week ago, was a draw. Lol. You Caicedo killed me that gameweek.
VDV to Cur seems a good option. Cur is most reliable Chelsea asset next to ummmm Sanchez. Also has the chance to bring in some BPS and attacking returns. I wouldn’t trust Reece James though.
I”m also holding on to JP. Think versus Sunderland he plays as a 10 behind Guiu, which suits him much better anyway. And Chelsea do have good fixtures ahead.
Site team still has no Gabriel or an Arsenal defender for that matter. I really don’t get that guys. Think most my points from the past weeks came from my double Arsenal defense.
On that note, Crystal Palace might not be the best team to try it out against. Though they did just play on Thursday and lost with 0-1 against a team from Cyprus. Which is worrying, since they did put up a very strong squad with Mateta, Sarr, Munoz, Guehi and so on.
Just 1 quick question
Who to start.
Esteve (vs WOL) or Guehi (vs ARS)?
Site team… no arsenal defence and no Samenyo??? Madness! Samenyo not even an option on the captain poll, he should be a named option over most of the ones that are named tbh.
