FF247 FPL Team Gameweek 16
Meh!
45 points for the week and just the two above the average. Meh!
Red arrow and a slight drop in the rankings to 183,041 overall. Meh!
Captain Salah with just one assist – 12 points – not blanking but not ripping it up. Meh!
Nine points from Trent and a couple of 5s from Raphinha and Antonio. Meh!
Two blanks leaving the pitch and 3 points coming on from autosub ….. you know where this is going!
The screengrab is below but it makes for dismal viewing – imagine beige in an FPL format.
Our Gameweek 15 Result…
We have £0.9m in the bank and 1 free transfer to use ahead of Gameweek 16. Let’s go see what was decided….
Our Gameweek 16 Transfer(s)
We realise that Ivan Toney is missing due to Covid and its isolating/testing technicalities and we also noticed that his price was dropping on Thursday evening so we went early on our transfer. The two choices were a Watford striker and erm, a Watford striker.
Like a lot of FPL this week we are looking at Emmanuel Dennis and Joshua King and it’s like looking at BBQ Beef and Chicken flavours of Super Noodles in the cupboard and trying to decide what’s going with the toast as the kettle clicks.
We’ve gone BBQ Beef Joshua King.
And wouldn’t you know after all that, we have one prominent member of the committee suggesting we leave the Super Noodles alone and go Cup-a-Soup, Ben White in his place this week…
To confirm then we have SOLD IVAN TONEY and BOUGHT JOSHUA KING (swapping one Friday night striker for another)
Captain – MOHAMED SALAH
Soon to be changed to the “Vice Captain” section. It’s Lukaku this week.

Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News Gameweek 16
We’ll do away with the wordy intro as you should all be au fait with the new layout of this by now.
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. This is the published article with the comments section to crack on with.
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.
What you see below is a live link to what Drafthound have on their website. Why is that significant? Well, firstly, it now means that the second they make any updates in reaction to live team news then they will also appear on here. Being uber helpful in that respect they also time-stamp all of their line-ups so you can tell to the minute when it was last updated.
As an additional extra if you click on any player icon on the team line-up that will take you to their own page on Drafthound, from where you can see up to date season stats, their upcoming fixture schedule and use a comparison tool to view similar players.
Given their time and effort in providing this content for us it would be rude not to occasionally click on the Drafthound link and check out their own fabulous content as there are FPL articles aplenty on there too.

Rumours Jota has not trained all week
Aww, like we need another problem in our teams.
Jota
This is where we need Potty to go down the Liverpool training ground and take pictures like he used to do at Man City, Bielsa stylie.
Talking of Potty,whatever happened to him ??
He’s still around. He pops on occasionally. I think he last commented on the CL article. Probably on page 1 regarding his league.
Good to know.Havent seen him active anywhere for a long time.Mind, I don’t play champions league.
This sounds like Origi will come in and Jota will be given a rest, they won’t want to risk Jota surely with Salah off in a few weeks.
Any advice on what to do here. Was thinking perhaps son and brownhill to Silva and foden but not sure double city is sensible with inevitable rotation. Maybe Silva and Bowen? Or should I be looking at getting rid of Toney. Issue with those moves is I would most likely play 451 and benching king against Brentford isn’t ideal
Just Son to Bilva for this week?
Son to Smith Rowe,Toney to Ronaldo ?
Its deadline day.
Is my bench choice/order OK?
I’d have ESR over Gallagher.
Cool
I just brought in Jota for -4 in my B team (no flags at all) log back into my team who already has Jota and low and behold an orange flag and 50% chance of playing….thanks FPL!
Hi everyone,
Still got my wild card to use so might as well!
Not had time to pay much attention to my team … how is this for a first draft??
Feel free to rip it to shreds LOL.
Thanks,
CC
Do you need Raphinha over this period given his fixtures? I’d maybe ditch him to a cheapie and reinvest some more in the backline.
Got it – thanks init!
Given the run of fixtures coming up i’d be loading up on Man City assets, Cancelo and Gundogan or Foden would be my picks
I’d say Trent,James,a City defender and Salah are a must then I would work round that.Matip isn’t nailed,Wolves have horrid fixtures and Brentford are crap at the back.
Hi CC! I wouldn’t go for Coady (especially with Sa on your goal), Pukki and Raphinha because of their teams’ fixtures. I am not keen on Henry either. I suggest invest more in defense and get a bench fodder to be able to afford it. Maybe consider Dalot and one of TAA/Cancelo (both great but you won’t be able to stretch for both with your current team structure). The rest looks good. I know it’s a bit more templaty but I still think those are the players to target considering form and fixtures.
Thanks everyone – really appreciate the input. I didn’t manage to check back for later comments and got trigger happy
Ended up with this …
We’ll see.
CC
Afternoon all.
Hows this looking for a WC?
Any changes I should make?
or
How much left itb ? You could do Steele to a 3.9 non playing keeper and Alan to a 4.4m mid to scrape a bit of money back.
0.5 in the mount team, 0.1 in the Jota team
