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…

Thanks a lot for including me fellas. It was way more enjoyable than looking at my sorry state of a FPL team.

You old conservative Fergie!
Fergies Henchman
I’ve tried the maverick approach and it always kills me. Fpl is a game that rewards us boring people 😉
Cookie
Will have to invent a new game then
Fergies Henchman
I’m actually quite liking fpl this year (mostly because I’m doing quite well for a change)
Fergies Henchman
Here’s a question for you all… which team would you have 2 mids from? Arsenal Liverpool or city?
Smash10
On value maybe Liverpool
Fergies Henchman
Thanks
Cookie
Nice one Fergie, what’s your rank?
I’d only double City if it included KDB and so thats them out plus you have Kun no doubt.
Fixtures say Arsenal, value says Liverpool. Prob be tempted with Arsenal while Walcott is performing mate.
Fergies Henchman
Cookie currently 25k. I have Walcott already so it’s a bit of a stretch to get sanchez too.
I’d be looking to bring in Son and then another mid from the teams mentioned. Currently have Lallana and Wally (as just mentioned)
Cookie
Nice one Fergie.
If you’re not going Alexis, i’d take one of the Liverpool boys then – take your pick!!
Fergies Henchman
Cheers cookie.
Rids
Costa or Walcott. Both games are gonna have lots of goals.
Fergies Henchman
Always a highlight when these articles come out. Thank you to all
