FF247 Site Team & Predicted Line Ups Gameweek 26
Welcome to FF247 Site Team & Predicted Line Ups Gameweek 26
Bruno – Let’s be Frank
Like all brilliant players (overrated he may be by some!), you just have to stick with them and thankfully, we did! Captain Fernandes pushed aside a poor opening show in part one of the double gameweek in the 1-1 draw with Southampton, to score in the 97th minute on Tuesday to secure United’s 2-0 win against Brighton. His goal, the clean sheet and three bonus points (setting aside his yellow card), was the perfect response and meant that we were rewarded with 24 points for our DGW captain. Noice!
Overall the average was 47 points and the FF247 boys notched 81, cracked the top 100k and rest comfortably at 75,917. Double noice!
Cheers to Jarrod Bowen (13), to Cristiano Ronaldo (10), to Robert Sanchez, Diogo Dalot and Phil Foden (all 8) & Trent Alexander-Arnold (6).
Jeers to Ben Davies, Diogo Jota, Emmanuel Dennis & Jean Philippe Mateta – all registered a single point.
Can’t all be brilliant we suppose…
Our Gameweek 25 Result…
We have £0.2mln in the bank and 2 free transfers to use ahead of Gameweek 26.
We also have Bench Boost, Triple Captain, Free Hit and our second Wildcard to use.
Let’s go see what was decided.
Our Gameweek 26 Transfers
We approach the first big double gameweek of the season without Mohamed Salah so it was perhaps – subconciously or otherwise – always the plan to have two free transfers to bring in, with relative ease, the overwhelming favourite for the captain’s armband (more on that a little later).
With the spread of funds throughout our squad and a reluctance to sell Bruno after his latest performance, soemthing BIG had to give in order to get Mo in. We have to say goodbye to Phil Foden (not ideal) and Cristiano Ronaldo (not ideal either) but big calls are required. That’s ‘calls’, not ….
AND THEN…..
Diogo Jota got injured. So a stay of execution for Foden, which is no hardship, and it becomes Liverpool for Liverpool in midfield.
So with Salah in, we had £7.9mln to spend on a replacement for CR7. Our preference was a DGW striker, someone who had scored in his last game (form) and has a decent ongoing run of fixtures.
Raul Jimenez of Wolves ticks all three boxes.
To confirm then we have SOLD DIOGO JOTA & CRISTIANO RONALDO and BOUGHT MOHAMED SALAH & RAUL JIMENEZ
***TRIPLE*** Captain – MOHAMED SALAH
As mentioned, we were likely always going to be captaining Salah, but with all chips in our pocket and two plum home matches, now is the time to utilise the Triple Captain chip on the Egyptian Magician. Go well, our Mo!

Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News Gameweek 26
Rather than clutter the site up on deadline eve with too many articles we have tagged our predicted line-ups on here.
As a quick reminder –
There are two versions of this article.
The one below has a drop-down version. It’s fairly idiot proof – you simply click on the small arrow to the right of the team name and you get a drop-down list of all the teams. Simply click on the one you want to see and hey presto, etc. This is the published article with the comments section to crack on with.
The other one is permanently live and has the ‘nicer’ grid layout. If you want to see that version you can click here. This can also be easily accessed at any time via a myriad of links on our homepage – Header link, Hot Topics link, Quick Access link on mobile and it is also linked towards the end of all of our regular articles.
What you see below is a live link to what Drafthound have on their website. Why is that significant? Well, firstly, it now means that the second they make any updates in reaction to live team news then they will also appear on here. Being uber helpful in that respect they also time-stamp all of their line-ups so you can tell to the minute when it was last updated.
As an additional extra if you click on any player icon on the team line-up that will take you to their own page on Drafthound, from where you can see up to date season stats, their upcoming fixture schedule and use a comparison tool to view similar players.
Given their time and effort in providing this content for us it would be rude not to occasionally click on the Drafthound link and check out their own fabulous content as there are FPL articles aplenty on there too.

FF247 LEAGUES FOR 2021/22
Fantasy Football 247 League Codes:
Both leagues will be shut to new entrants as of 01/01/22.
Should i start digne against watford who have gone ice cold?
Or broja who is in good form vs Everton?
Will have no option but to bench watkins and ramsey.
Digne for me
Guys am I good to go here please?
Yep! Not tempted to TC Salah?
Looks like a FH mate
Looks cool man u man
I like it
Need some help here guys please. Meant to do my transfers last night but fell asleep and now gonna cost me more with Salah going up and Jota dropping. Now I’ve seen Twitter has gone a bit mad with the extra dgw fixtures announced and lots of talk about wildcarding this week now to set up better. Should I just stick with my plan and take a -4? Def doing jota to Salah and Ronaldo to jiminez. What’s the best 3rd transfer
A) Bruno to son
B) Dawson to Tierney
C) Bruno to saka
Any other options? What about cancelo to robbo? Do I keep martinelli for the second fixture?
None, leave as is I think.
I wouldn’t say any of those moves justifies a -4
All 3 options are good. If u fh gw 27 but not 30, then get an arsenal player.
If u dont fh gw27, then son perhaps.
Morning all,
Did Jota and Toney to Saka and Jimenez for -4. Am I good to go?
TC for Salah this week
Thanks
Always risky to have a player like cancelo on the bench. But yes, it looks good!
Iqbal, personally I’d play Cancelo over Dennis but then I am haunted by that Watford loser.
Rest looks great!
Good to go? With Antonio on the bench i might as well keep jota right? No ft left but 1,0 itb…
Looks good Allan, yeah play Antonio.
Thanks cookie!
Wotcha everyone, remember me?!
Hope all well, sorry for extended absence, all is good just lots going on elsewhere.
Am here for 30mins, ask me anything you like!
In the meantime, who scores more this week, Bruno or Son? No context needed, it’s that simple, only caveat is I’ll want Son next week.
Thanks in advance and ask away!
What’s the breakfast of choice this morning, Cookie?
Inspire me.
Morning GP,
Poached eggs on granary toast with crispy bacon on side.
Speak a ma language
Wotcha Cookster, I’ll keep it brief, Son or Kane?
Hi Claire, nice to see you, hope you’re well.
Son for me, but guess there’s an element of team specificness (new word alert) about this.
All good thanks Cookie, apart from having COVID which is no more than a cold thankfully. Hope all is good with you too.
Sorry to hear that Claire, but glad it’s not too bad. I’ve escaped it so far despite the mrs having it over Christmas. She was bad for a couple of days but not being allowed to see the inlaws over Chrimbo ensured this was collateral damage
I’m keeping Bruno for now, so I hope he scores more than Son!
That’s what I’m with at the moment LD, cheers.
Ask you anything?!
Yeah, shoot!
Did you watch the curling?
Any news frompark lady!?
I did. Unfort Sweden were always strong favourites, esp with the last curl in the extra end.
Give us your predicted Liverpool line up for today, please.
Odd Dane, no news from park lady, prob for the best!!
Alisson
Trent, Matip, Virg, Robbo
Hendo, Fab, Elliott
Mo, Bobby, Diaz
Welcome back from your hiatus Cookie
Bruno
