FF247 Site Team & Predicted Line Ups GW38
Welcome to FF247 Site Team & Predicted Line Ups GW38
We went into the penultimate game week of the season with just 5 double-game week players, and whilst we didn’t set the world on fire, we performed admirably. Our double Newcastle defence finally came up trumps with 9pts and 8pts respectively for Tripper and Botman, Salah pitched it with 5pts with the rest of our single-game week contingent (Saka, Jesus and Isak) managing just 4pts between them. Our doubles players largely performed like singles, 12pts for captain Haaland, 5pts off Mahrez, 7 for Mitoma. The star of the show was set to be Luke Shaw, 9pts in his first match but then he limped off in the second and finished up on 10pts. Bugger.
When all was said and done we ended on 63pts, 11 above the game week average, which saw a red arrow falling from 297,104 to 312,664. We need to finish above 252,733 to avoid our worst overall rank in our 9 seasons of playing. So that’s our goal as we enter the final week of the season, we’re not confident!
Our GW37 Result…
We have £0.7 in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of GW38. Let’s go see what was decided….
Our GW38 Transfer(s)
With Luke Shaw flagged we could have beefed up our defensive options but that feels a little too passive for GW38. Instead, we looked to our front 7 and found that other than Isak we were pretty happy with our lot. So it was quickly decided that Isak would make way. With our options limited we decided it came down to Callum Wilson (who we probably should have bought instead of Isak) and Ollie Watkins. Watkins hasn’t scored in a while, or as one of our members put it ‘he hasn’t scored since Wilson started scoring’. It went to a vote, and despite the latter observation, Watkins won 4 votes to 2.
We then put the captaincy to vote and it was a unanimous vote for Mo Salah, his fixture and certainly of starts winning over ‘parma-captain Haaland for one last hurrah! So that’s us, our final lineup for the season, what happens, happens and we’ll be ok however that turns out because we are just cool like that!! Good luck everyone and thanks for all your interaction across the site this year!
To confirm then we have SOLD Alexander Isak and BOUGHT Ollie Watkins
Captain – Salah

Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News
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.
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.

MacAllister or Mitoma to Eze?
Still undecided of which way to go. 14 points behind in my ML 1ft 0.3 itb. Thinking of going haaland to kane (c). I have this voice in the back of my head saying go for firmino, but who knows how many minutes he will get.
If I do just the one transfer then I will have kane isak and Bruno as the only players really who can get back the 14 points. Maybe I need to take a hit. Could do gross to eze but I just have this feeling that my rival could bring in eze. Could go McNeil? Or if I went firmino over kane then could go maddison but he has hurt me this season. Please help!

I wouldn’t get Maddison! For chasing, it’s got to be Kane right?
Yeah I think so. Kane prob best option and captain him. Rival will captain salah I reckon and I have salah so I’ll be hoping he will blank which isn’t great. Am I better off captaining salah and then hope my others make up the points? 2nd should I take a hit for eze or mcneil
14 behind, you’ve got to captain someone else I think. I wouldn’t take the hit, but I HATE hits. Maybe a more adventurous player would say do it.
On FH, how does this look? I’ve still good 0.6m ITB. If we hear Haaland isn’t playing, I think those funds will go towards Son.

Is Ortega defo starting?
Haven’t a clue, but Steele can step up if he doesn’t
Ederson starts
Hi All, thanks for all articles this season.
I have done well comparing to previous years. In top 20k at the moment.
Thinking KDB & Greenwood to Eze & Kane (-4)
Apparently KDB has not travelled.
Anything better!

Sounds good to me. Can’t think of much more anyway!
Morning all! Good luck for the last round and all your mini league rivalries!
Any suggestions here? 0.1 to spend with 1FT. Grealish and Shaw seem the obvious changes but any suggestions?

Apparently Shaw was on training, he could start. Grealish not in someone posted tweet.
Yes, Shaw was training with the team yesterday

I’ve checked a dozen sites for predicted lineups and most have Haaland not starting at all.
Is it worth the risk to replace him with Kane?
I’d wait as long as you can before pushing the button
Nah, it’s far too risky, he might get some part to add another goal to his record.
Instead, I took a hit and replaced Isak with Kane who will be my captain
Haaland on the bench guys
