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.

Took a -8 to get the team below. Tempted to not TC and WC instead to set up for this week, 28 & 29 instead.
Looks solid
A WC could look something like this:
Stone Frog, you’d have to FH in 27 with that WC due to Arsenal and Liverpool blanking.
I could -4 for 2 Arsenal out or take one less this week, but true. May be best to WC in 27 then and finally get rid of the Watford double-up!
Howdy folks! Chaos planning… Who to get in and out?
1FT and 2.0 in the bank, a hit seems likely.
Jota and Coufal to Saka & Robertson?
VVD maybe and no Saka, I don’t plan to FH27
Leaked but unconfirmed Palace team for today:
Guaita
Mitchell, Ward, Guehi, Andersen
Hughes, Schlupp, McArthur
Zaha, Ayew, Mateta
Merci mon petit Cookster ! Have got Édouard atm. What the fork do I do? Hide him I suppose? How’s it all going in Cooktown? Hope you are okay.
Bonjour AJW! Play Eddy, he’ll come on and then hopefully start vs Watford.
I wish I were in the boozer, unfort the mrs is working so I have all 3 ankle biters all day.
How’s things with you my fave croissant cruncher?
Awright my guv’nah! Ah you’re on ‘rug-rat’ duty! At least Mrs C has a job and so things must be looking up for the wee Cookies! Just trying to get my head around a few things! Speak to you soon! P.S. Yeah left Eddie in the team mate, and have done a funny little DGW move of gettin in Fabinho as 3rd Pool player (a Cookster-style throw at the stumps!) cos I couldn’a fit any other of em in (AND got Laca into my front row for a bit of a whizz!). Ah if you can’t have fun in this game, hey mate, what’s the point? (Although I have not strayed too far from the pack with the TC firmly planted on Mo Salah’s little red shorts!!! This is almost like a necessary insurance policy given the current climate!)
See yah mate ! Have a good weekend. 😉
Oops just reread my message – as per usual, I was gonna do a quick reply, but got lost and then made the ‘P.S.’ part of the deal the longest comment! Typical of this Aussie w**ker!
If anyone has Saint-Maximim, he’s apparently out for 2-3 weeks.
Are you at the pub or something Cookie? Talking to this bloke in the corner, who ‘knows’!
The harbinger of bad news
Morning guys
So iv taken a -8 but still have both Dennis and King upfront
Should I keep them both on or shall I swap king for Dalot or Diop who have single games???
What do you guys reckon?
Same with me man. But playing them both & benching Dalot
I was thinking the same
Currently playing double City defence. Should I play it safer and have Broja starting and benching Laporte instead?
No. I like that Ted.
Cool, I’ll leave my team alone. Thanks Gallant!
