Welcome to the FF247 Site FPL Team GW14
Lacklustre
We’d love to rant about all those who let us down this week but in all honesty it’s easier to simply tell you who didn’t. Trent and Toney didn’t, that’s who, and unfortunately that’s all. Even they didn’t break double digits, but a paltry 9 apiece still trounced the rest. Kane couldn’t even be bothered to play because it snowed or something and so White came in, ironically, and his 6 was the next best, which sort of says it all really. Lacklustre.
We ended up on 50 points, just 12 above the average, which meant a small red arrow and a new overall rank of 116,759.
Our GW13 Result…
We have £1.1m in the bank and one free transfer to use ahead of the midweek GW14. Let’s go see what was decided….
Our GW14 Transfer(s)
If you thought our team was lacklustre then that had nothing on the actual committee this week. There was one risque suggestion of dumping Kane and getting in Lukaku to attempt to capitalise on Watford’s recent propensity to be involved in goal-fests, plus the fact that they seem to be down to their U23’s team for this one. But that garnered zero votes and so was quickly dismissed and with it Kane bought himself a (temporary) reprieve. The only other suggestion was that we should finally get on the Jota train and poor Raphinha was the fall guy. Quite what Raphinha had done to deserve such ruthlessness we aren’t sure, but to know would probably involve some degree of conversation. The art of which seemed to have passed the committee by this week as we simply had insightful comments such as ‘Jota’ and ‘+1’. Funny that because if you ask them about their own team they will blabber on endlessly….
The slight fly in the ointment here was that it took most of them so long to respond that when they did we had missed out on Jota by £0.1m due to a price rise! Back to the drawing board then and our ever so chatty committee swung back into action with nuggets such as ‘Lukaku’. And ‘Lukaku’. From which we assume they mean that the Kane to Lukaku risk was back on the table.
Perhaps it was written in the stars…
To confirm then we have SOLD Kane (gulp) and BOUGHT Lukaku (double gulp)
Captain – Mo Salah
Fairly predictable but also fairly unanimous as 4 out of the 7 people who actually bothered to vote went with Salah.
Should Everton somehow conspire to have the game postponed (rumours of Rafa being seen leaving B&Q with a snow machine) then new signing Lukaku will step in as our vice.

BTW, I’m really looking forward to Jota goals in both FPL and FFS (not as rude as it sounds – it’s actually Fantasy Football Scotland!) as I have Diogo AND Filipe (Celtic’s Portuguese star) in my teams. Life’s a funny thing, hey?
I’d be surprised if Lukaku starts. Tuchel said build up mins
I quite like that transfer, and has added another option to my basket this week.
2FT, 0.1m itb, WC still available.
1) Mbeumo to Gilmour, safe move with extra funds to help with White/Alonso to James and/or Gallagher to Gundo next week.
2) Antonio to Wilson, 2 week punt with Wilson to King timed perfectly for GW16. Antonio to return for GW18.
3) Ronaldo to Wilson, gives plenty in the bank (£5.1m) for pre WC moves over the next 3/4 weeks.
4) Ronaldo to Lukaku. The site have suggested it, must be a good move.
Thoughts?
2. Ronaldo’s got a great run of games coming.
I need a midfielder with max 7m…..who?
Already have Gallagher and Brownhill.
Maddison or Barnes?
Barnes – don’t want. Maddison is a consideration. I have the below shortlisted:
—— Maddison, Cornet (2 weeks punt), Bowen (Long term with next one bad), Lucas Moura (2 weeks punt – might be quite bad)
All of them are fairly punty, but Leicester are starting to get some form together.
Since James isn’t likely to play, who should I have as my first sub: Veltman or Livramento? Thanks!
Both concede, I reckon, and both equally unlikely to do anything spectacular. Flip a coin.
How abt veltman. To Alonso for free. Is it a good transfer given chillwel is out.
Veltman to Alonso sounds like a plan!
Any thoughts here? I’m so out of the loop and starting to drop in my mini leagues! I’ve got 1FT and 0.3 to spend!
Foden to Jota?
+1
