Site Team Gameweek 3
Welcome to Site Team Gameweek 3
For a team whose captain blanked (didn’t most?) and not (YET) owning Benrahma, to score a 13-above average 69 points – and a total of 163 points after two – we don’t’ feel too bad with the current position.
We are 677,270 overall and we shall apply the old adage, “You can’t win FPL after the first couple of Gameweeks but you can lose it”.
Now let’s go win it!
Gameweek 2 you remember was the captaincy battle between the two FPL behemoths – Mohamed Salah and Bruno Fernandes – when all along we should have gone with Antonio, Trent or *checks notes* Tsimikas …..
Those three led/dragged our team along with scores of 16, 12 and 11. Only DCL and Raphinha (both 7) with goals and Luke Shaw with his two bonus points (no, really) didn’t blank.
Our Gameweek 2 Result…
Let’s go see what was decided…
We arrive at Gameweek 3 as planned, with 2 free transfers.
We’ve lost a couple of quid and we’ve gained a couple of quid but we haven’t panicked and rushed into anything. ‘Slow and steady’ and all that!
Our Gameweek 3 Transfer(s)
If we asked you to guess what our move (singular) would be based on the above, would you say Barnes to Benrahma?
Well you would be correct.
The move was pretty unanimous and we get in a player in excellent form for one … who isn’t. Simple this game some times.
Kind of now also helps that this is a downgrade (in monetary terms anyway) and we stash a few pennies away into the Ronnie-day fund.
To confirm then we have SOLD HARVEY BARNES and BOUGHT SAID BENRAHMA
Captain – MICHAIL ANTONIO
This one was between the West Ham man and the man who takes up the vice captaincy, Bruno. By 4 votes to one Micha’ takes it.
More Dirty Dancing against Palace please big chap!

I hope Antonio doesn’t blank, now that most of us consider him to be a good captaincy choice
Don’t jinx it!
Good luck site team. Looking at the team in the first photo, I already knew the transfer that would be made.
Good luck to the site team – mostly because it’s 90% the same as mine!
…But who is Seb Fox and why has he taken over the site team?
Here’s Klopp on Robertson vs Tsimikas. I don’t speak Klopp’sk so you’ll have to read for yourself and make your own conclusions.
Mine? I think Robertson can start, but maybe won’t and… also, Tsimikas might not start but maybe

I read the who report and thought it would either of;
Tsim starts or
Robo starts or
Both or
Neither
It will be one of the above.
My gut tells me Tsimikas get to start. He hasn’t done anything wrong and klopp might just give Robo another week rest before the break
I would be shocked if Robbo don’t start it’s Chelsea. I think he knew that last week hence taking him off to get standing ovation
Both starting or neither starting is out of the question.
One of them will start.
I ll say 90% Robbo bcoz it is an early title race match. Huge match
I did the Barnes to Ben move earlier in the week, but my itchy transfer finger I went Toney to Armstrong as well and put 1.4m in bank
Btw that is great news for Toney owners
11:30PM Friday night for me and I’m wondering if I should go to bed or tinker with my team. Son or Antonio? Use the other FT for no good reason? Throw it all away and WC the son of a bitch? I think bed is the correct answer and let the points fall as they may. Crossing my fingers this is right for the week because 6 matches will have started before I even wake. Good luck everyone!
Do.
Not.
WC.
I like Son as cap’n, think you’re good as it were.
Just drunken rambling on my part OD.
Don’t drink and transfer I always says…
…but then another whisky(ey?) sour enters my belly and some random fraud (it’s often Zaha…) finds his way to my team the next morning…
I’m not one to judge
