Here’s the team for fantasy premier league GW17
Firstly the transfers were tricky. Essentially the debate was between Bony and Nasri and Sakho/Kane and YYT. In the end I didn’t want 2 Swansea players with 3 away games in 4 so I went for the Sakho/YYT transfer. I also thought about a straight swap for RVP but I was £0.1m short and having no Man City player didn’t seem right. I did think about not taking the 4 point hit but not having YYT made me very nervous.
The team selection was also difficult. The defence was easy as not only do I have 3 defenders with Moore dropped and Duff injured but they both would have had difficult fixtures. A 0-0 North East derby match would suit me down to the ground.
Now I’m in the situation I intensely dislike of having a rotating attacking 8. Siggy was the only player who could be rotated given the fixtures and his struggles away from home. His ownership though makes me very nervous.
The captain was also one of the hardest as well. Once I decided that a trip to Stoke was a bit much for the travel sick duo of Hazard and Costa it then could have been anyone including YYT, Eriksen, Austin and Sakho. In the end the Penalties and set pieces of YYT got the nod although with a captain artcle to go there could be a last minute change of mind!
Good luck to everyone for fantasy premier league GW17
