FF247 Site Team News Gameweek 16
TWO IN A ROW!
Welcome to FF247 Site Team Gameweek 16
WE’VE FINALLY DONE IT! For the first time this season we have managed to get TWO green arrows in a row!
55 points which is 5 above the average of 50, a green arrow of 120k and up to 3,248,648.
We had Salah as captain until Storm Darragh came along so a quick poll was taken and a swap from Mo to Watkins was made. This was yet again a massive, massive fail. Watkins returned a big dud of 2 points, doubled to 4 whilst Cole Palmer laughed in our faces with 18 points. When is the last time we even got a captaincy pick correct? We checked – GAMEWEEK 11 was the last time we captained our highest scorer. It hasn’t been great.
Apart from Saliba and Bruno getting 9 points and a 4 from Ait-Nouri every other player in the team blanked and returned lots of 2’s!
Let’s hope we can get better!
Our Gameweek 15 Result
We have 0.0 in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of GW16. Let’s go see what was decided.
Our Gameweek 16 Transfer(s)
We didn’t really have to make a move this week but a change of Watkins to Isak was suggested. Then came the news that Watkins had picked up a knock and Wilson was out for another 2 months.
Isak therefore became a no-brainer and in came the Swede.
To confirm then we have SOLD Ollie Watkins and BOUGHT Alexander Isak
Captain – Cole Palmer
Like most this week, we had loads of options for the armband and it was a 3-2 split on Palmer/Salah in favour of the chill guy. We look to Cole to break our captaincy curse.

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

Few ideas given to me by fellow ff’ers
1. Roll FT
2. Haaland->Isak
3. Gvardiol->Kerkez
What is the better option? I have a few bench players that need to be sorted out, but might be better with 2FT.
I still have my WC but will be using that before the deadline, which I presume I will have to activate once GW18 is live.

Just use the WC now to fix team. Especially if u decide no Haaland.. could change all these things u r saying.
Too short notice. I dont have much time, as I like to think about it..lol
I’d also be tempted to play it. If not, get rid of Gvardiol
I like to tinker, not rush the wildcard.
Having just seen this latest comment, I only have 1hr 16 minutes. Not enough time. Too much panic getting I think.
As for gvardiol, city concede, but he does get assists lol
Who to ditch him for though
Yeah, I’d defo WC and spread the Haaland cash!
I’ve seen better benches in the local park
Not going to have time to wildcard, so will have to roll the FT, hope for the best, and use the transfers next week to tinker for the Xmas run in
Start colwill or porro?

Porto for me, would go for the attacking upside
Chelsea are very annoyingly keep letting a goal in at home. I just bough Colwill in this week hoping they will start keeping CS very soon
Porro then sell him.
Spurs are dreadful.
Porro
My team was in a bit of free fall so I hit the WC last night. Couldn’t get TAA without having dead wood on my bench. Any tweaks? I like Enzo but not sure about a Chelsea double up in midfield.

Roll
He’s on wildcard!
Virgil and Gabriel to Trent and Timber might appeal. Not a recommendation but maybe something to consider?
Could you stow Andersen from Fulham on your bench ahead of Mykolenko for the better days ahead?
Thanks as ever GP. I tried that but had 0.0 BUT now that I look at it again I could move Semenyo to Enzo and if he’s fodder so be it. Frees up a nice 0.5 to play with later.
I bought Enzo last night so a ‘yes’ from me.
Good luck mate.
Looks good. Colwill does not offer much despite the fixtures. Could be more fun to get somone like Kerkez or Munoz for potential attacking returns.
I’ve had Colwill for weeks with very little return, agree think I can try someone with more bite. Thanks SF!
Salah or Palmer as cappo? Currently set on Salah. My cap choices have been horrific this season and it makes a world of difference.
Hi Raz,
I think I would side with Salah. Just.
Did the same. Thank you, GP.
I have Palmer and Salah and I have gone with the latter.
Jackson or Isak to replace Watkins?
Thought he was confirmed out, might just hold him.
I have Jackson but i think i will be transferring him for Isak after this GW.
Whether he’s fit or not, I would still go Isak for him.
Morning all,
Which one should I bench out of Pedro/wood and semenyo?
Thanks

I think Semenyo.
Based upon minutes (as I don’t see much else splitting them) I would bench JP.
