5 FT’s to burn
Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW16
Our Gameweek 15 Result
Not the best week ever, it’s fair to say. Hardly the best season ever either. So at least we are being consistent! It was 47 points, 2 below the average, but we got away with a rank drop of just 170k. But hey, it’s a lot more congested in that 3m odd mark. Small mercies…

We have 0.7m in the bank and 5 free transfers to use ahead of GW16. Let’s go see what was decided….
Our G16 Transfer(s)
With the luxury of 5 FT’s afforded to us we have changed our plans on the chip strategy a bit. For the record that now looks like; Free Hit GW17, Wildcard GW18 and Bench Boost GW19. Maybe…
As for this week we had Sels, Munoz and Mateta all injured so replacing those became the priority.
Raya was an obvious way back into the Arsenal defence, negating their other injury woes back there. Anderson has some decent fixtures and is cheap. Ekitike is the punt here but again he has good fixtures, should see more game-time now that Salah has spat his dummy out, and has arguably been Liverpool’s 2nd best player all season anyway. And no Mo, you weren’t 1st.
To confirm then we have SOLD Sels, Munoz and Mateta and BOUGHT Raya, Anderson and Ekitike
Captain – Saka
A bit of a departure from the norm that is Haaland, but with him away at a potentially more tricky Palace and with Saka at home to Wolves then he edges it. Well, it was 3-0 in votes anyway, so edging it may be exaggerating matters.

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

I think a lot will be captaining Saka/Rice/Eze. I am
Team looks strong

Terminators
Looks good.
SAFs_hairdryer
I would say so. Not tempted to play Minteh in a 3-4-3?
Phoenix619
Who would you bench VVD ?
Terminators
If I were doing that, yes it would be VVD to bench.
SAFs_hairdryer
Can someone explain how the sale prices work this season? I thought the sale price was Hal the increase since purchase price but rounded down.
I have Calafiori up £0.2 but no rise in SP. Enzo £0.1 but no change in SP yet Bruno up £0.1 and SP up £0.1. Makes no sense

What do you mean? My team value is currently on 102,6.
In order to get 0.1 added you need a player to go up twice. For instance, If I bought Saka at 10m and he’s now
10.2. I’ll get 10.1 back.
Raziel
So needs to be 0.2 up Before you x
Gain anything.
SAFs_hairdryer
Hey Raz, I know how it should work but it wasn’t working correctly. I’ve done the on/off trick and somehow the prices caught up. It was showing players had gone up by 0.2 with me change to the sale price. Odd

Hey,
Finally got around to my FH team.
Went Chalobah over Timber in the end.
Thoughts?
Thanks.

Why have Matty cash and not play him?
chelseachick_uk
Good point. Bench Anderson?
Terminators
I agree, yes bench Anderson.
chelseachick_uk
Thanks both.
Should I get Raya over Leno?

AJW
Go for Sanchez CC. A FH is more fun if there’s a few players from your favourite team! Good luck!
Terminators
May as well get Raya if you only have the two Arsenal players.
chelseachick_uk
I was too late to put Sanchez in, ended up with Leno.
Hope you all did well yesterday!

Went into a Christmas mood and used all 5 freebies

My idea of ‘Xmas mode’ is to leave a few yellow-flagged players in, so the team looks lit up like a Xmas tree! Hahaha!
Good luck mate!
AJW
Sorry I think I’ve already done that one ! Like everyone’s boring old uncle, who topped up constantly in ‘Xmas spirit ‘ (or ‘spirits’). 😉
IvanTheTerrible
Terminators
Looks solid, what is your plan for O.Dango?
IvanTheTerrible
T, he is yet to be called. And, when he goes, I am sure can be stuck on the bench if necessary until the WC.
AJW
Hey people- any late mail/last minute team gossip? I guess it’s too late anyway, and we can’t reverse transfers!
Have a great GW! 😉
