Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! GW8 The USA Edition
Welcome to the Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! GW8 USA Edition article. Having heard what our European writers have had to say about their own FPL seasons , Change of plans, the American contingent finished their part of this double edition of GABO first (just like the Ryder Cup), so we will go with them. Don’t let this put you off though
We jest of course, because we know we have a good many regular site member from ‘over there’ and they all clearly know their stuff. They follow it as avidly as we do in the UK and in many cases are actually proving to be more successful. We here at FF247 love playing their game – MLS, and we would like to think we have had a fair degree of success in doing so. Except when we completely miss the deadlines! Do they have the same issues, what are their takes on our league and their fantasy game in relation to ours and how are they faring this season so far? Let’s go find out…

Deeney or Rashford?
I don’t own Capoue or Ibrahimovic.
Anand
Deeney. Good fixtures and overall team in good form.
Rids
Deeney all the way!
Eagle
Deeney for me that’s why I got him a couple of weeks ago.
inittowinit
Deeney, I bought him last night.
Cookie
What?? You never transfer early.
inittowinit
Had to. I was down to 0.1 on the whole deal and wasn’t willing to get caught out or the whole Sanchez plan would be ruined. Got a WC there to reluctantly use if the worse happens and half my squad comes back injured. No biggie though because if that happens it probably happens to most as well, many without a WC. A calculated risk as Mito would put it.
Anand
Guys how do I link my team?
Brookyboy
Looks like you’ve done it !!
Silvers
Evening all thinking of changing Baines & McAuley to Stones & Morgan sideways move I know but WBA fixtures not great & Baines just keeps getting injured what do we thk or any better picks ???
Brookyboy
Why Stones ? City have kept one cs all season in the league.Not sure what the rest of your team is but how about Baines to Vertonghen and Mccauley to Smith ?
inittowinit
Yeah wouldn’t bother with Stones there Silvers. As per what Brooky said but also he keeps getting rotated out. Frustrated Stones owner here!
Silvers
Cheers Brookyboy & Init potentially Baines is the better pick but can he stay injury free two good options there Brookyboy i have time to thk about it 😉
