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!

Is this the right lineup?
I think I favour Aylling over Amartey but it’s perfectly understandable to go with what you have.
Morning all! Good to go here?
Good to go
but just in case go with a safer VC choice 
Looking good igy.
Would you play Ayling over Iheanacho
Give Nacho the chance to start this week since you have him
Proably correct here.
Thanks Guys.
It will probably be his last chance, as Ronnie will be in after the international break.
Just fed up of his 1 pointers from the bench. Thought Ayling might have faired better this week, thats all. Have put Ayling 1st bencher instead
Would you do Bruno and Toney to Raphinha and Kane for a -4? Or leave as is?
I was very nearly on a -4 myself about an hour ago which involved Bruno and Kane.
I resisted and just grabbed Son instead.
I’d say no, but I can see why it looks very good.
Just get son directly, that’s what I think anyway
Cheers GP. Yeah, I do like that now there’s a number of good options, everyone basically had the same team these opening few weeks. Son should serve you well. Now wait and see what ronaldo is priced at…
Morning all!
Good luck in GW3. I activated my wildcard this week as I needed to change things up, but massively regretting that decision with the Ronaldo-to-United news breaking yesterday.
Here’s the WC team I’ve landed on. Think it gives me plenty of flexibility to change things up again if I need to.
1.1m ITB, and as a United fan, I’m considering Kane -> Ronaldo in GW4 depending on CR’s price.
What do you think?
There’s nobody in there I feel strongly about ‘not’ having on a wildcard so I think that, together with a plan to get Ronaldo (have a Plan ‘B’ as well incase you can’t get rid of Kane), then I think you are in a strong position as you can be with the chip being active.
Thanks Gallant
Spurs have Palace (a) in GW4, so wouldn’t be the end of the world to keep him in and make 2 transfers in GW5…
Exactly.
