Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! – Fantasy Premier League 2017-18 Part 1
As you should all be aware we are now entering crunch time for the season. The DGWs are on the horizon and a Blank GW is even closer still. In addition to Cezary’s superb article on how to negotiate GW31, we have again turned to some FPL ‘experts’ as to what plans they are making for GW31 and also some other more general FPL topics. And of course we finish in a more light-hearted fashion as we allow our panel to express their views on some easy targets!
Our article is split into two groups. In this episode we have the old codgers – three people who helped to found FF247 and play an active day-to-day role in ensuring the site is what it is. You know them all well and they should need little introduction. However, that wouldn’t be any fun.
First up is Mito. Always willing to offer very candid advice, our resident Colombian is nowhere more at home than on twitter as he torments suffering fans – preferably Arsenal, Man Utd or Liverpool ones if he could choose!
Joining Mito is Init. Not much gets past Init, he remembers everything you’ve ever said, any controversial or embarrassing comment ever made. But in a nice, jokey way. Sort of! Oh and he’s pretty good at FPL too (mandatory compliment ticked!).
Completing the set is Kop. Happy, chirpy, smiling Kop. Always positive and looking on the bright side of life, Kop is always there when the chips are down to remind you that there is always someone worse off than yourself!
That’s enough waffling, let’s see what divine wisdom the old gits have for us.

Just wait until you see what GP and Matt are doing to the poor thing in Part 2
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
Think we can give him a preview. 😉
Snookie Bear

The “Every man and his dog” saying just got a whole new meaning now :hippo:

If you don’t understand the dog reference then don’t worry.
Neither do I!
Rosco77
There is nothing better than the love a man and his dog share…especially in the shower….
The Gallant Pioneer (@MitchellC_FF247)
Rosco and pal
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
Well, you would know. 😉

I’m with you mate, society would crumble if we all went under.

I always love how the order of who entered their answers is clear in these. Kop, sorry, mate: you got stitched up again and it was unnecessary but entertaining nonetheless.
Giroud’s been a surprisingly popular punt from FPL teams that I’ve seen. Mr Moody and Welsh Sturridge: the dream team.
Kop Warrior
Nothing new there James
inittowinit
It’s disgraceful Kop, contact HR… oh hang on
Kop Warrior
I did. They told me to do one!!
Bigpopz
CL captain for tonight’s games?
Stick with KDB 6pts (12) as captain.
Lose 6pts taking it of KDB for one of..
Naymar / Salah / Ronnie / J Rod
FC Sanchez
Hey Bigpopz — I’m switching (c) from Sterling –> Neymar or Salah… still deciding. If I had Ronnie, he’d be in contention to as he is coming off a hatty (though obviously PSG will be more of a proper opponent than Real Sociodad!).
Bigpopz
Yea may go Ronnie
He’s done good so far in CL
FC Sanchez
Yeah, tough one between Salah, Neymar, and Ronnie in your case. Pity they are all playing on the same game-day or it would have been easier. Good you still have James to come also!
