FF247 Site Team Gameweek 9
Now we saw him race ….. and we had Saliba, not a trace of luck on our side ….
Welcome to FF247 Site Team Gameweek 9
As has seemed to be the way more often than we would like, Gameweek 8 was another below average showing for the Site Team. Posting a meak and measley 34 points and two below the going rate of 36, we reside at 2,764,797 overall. Sigh.
Perhaps we have been spoiled in previous years and this is our regression to mean? (Bloody hope not – Ed.)
A case of sugar and sh(ingle) in defence as we owned William Saliba (-3) on Saturday evening and then Josko Gvardiol (10) on Sunday afternoon. Net 7 – that any good?, laugh or cry etc etc….
The defence was rounded out with two other players falling either side of average – Micky van de Ven (1) (no cleanie and booked) and Mark Flekken (4) (no cleanie but save points).
A quartet of 2s in the middle with Mbeumo, Gordon, Palmer and Johnson blanking, as did Dominic Calvert-Lewin (2) and our captain Erling Haaland (4). Finally we had Ollie Watkins (8) who had some decency as his goal and bonus at Fulham brought home the rinds, if not the actual bacon.
Our Gameweek 8 Result
We have £0.1mln in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of Gameweek 9. Let’s go see what was decided.
Our Gameweek 9 Transfer(s)
With only one move in the bank and just a single button to spend, we don’t have a lot of wriggle room here readers. ‘Can we do nothing and roll for the week?’ was the first thought. Turns out we have a strong captain and most of our players have really good fixtures with most of them at home so yes we could. The keep calm and ‘save-FT-and-see-if-our-luck-turns’ decision was waved through and so we are doing nothing except hope that Haaland does well (but not too well as our TC has gone on him already).
To confirm then we have SAVED OUR FREE TRANSFER
Captain – Erling Haaland
We hope he does well – but not as well as Gameweek 2 please.

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

Start smith rowe or McNeil?
McNeil – home game and is in good form
Probably agree.
Cheers all
Hi fellas.
Have a bench problem
Who to play?
Any suggestions great appreciated

Rogers, McNeil, Wellbeck or Raul to carry the drinks this week?
Rogers edges over Raul slightly for me. But it’s a coin toss for this lot I’d say
Keane, Faes or Robinson to play?
Keane over Faes. A baller move could even be Faes over Lewis, hehe
Keane over Faes & Rogers over Raul for me I think BB.
Thanks
Who would you replace Havertz with?
Wood, Raul Jimenez or Brand Larsen?
I’ve gone with Raul Jimenez
I’ve gone with Raul as well, finally got rid of Muniz. The trouble is that used the second FT to replace Saka with Son who is now doubtful and no idea what to do. Do I take a hit or stay put

Snap ivan.
Is a -4 mad to go to foden.
Gavy, I was thinking Foden but the fixture are turning a bit iffy after next week. Maybe Palmer….
Having 3ft helps me Ivan.
Jota will become Mbuemo, and people reckon Raul is a better option for Havertz.
Will leave me 1ft. Presume I will have 2ft next week
Bench one:
Trent
Gabriel
Mykolenko
1ft and 0.1m itb. Plan was to go saka to son but son unlikely to play. Seems like saka is very uncertain too. I could sell him for palmer but would need to take a hit to raise funds maybe by downgrading TAA?

Palmer and Bounanotte for Saka and Semenyo?
