Fantasy premier league team tips GW16 – FFGeek contributors show their GW16 teams part 2
Here’s part 2 of the FPL managers who contribute to the FFGeek site with good histories who show their teams each week. This will give people a feel for what other managers are doing. It’s a fairly informal thing with no obligation on anyone and these teams may change at anytime before the deadline without further notice. It also wont cover early transfers. It’s just to give an idea of the trends for the week no more.

Keith Spencer
Keith finished with a 3k OR last season, an incredible OR of 325 in 16/17 and 9k in 15/16.
He is one of the 10 top FPL managers I follow weekly who’ve finished the last 3 seasons in the top 10k OR.
GW15 points: 47 -8 (average 45) Total points 935, Gameweek rank 2,771k, Overall Rank: 31k, red arrow 17k, Team Value: £102.6m
Arnie out Jiménez in. Hope this is the week wolves turn it around. Good luck all.
Prakhar Patel
Prakhar finished in 17th overall in fantasy premier league last season. An amazing achievement
GW15 points: 71 (average 45) Total points 936, Gameweek rank 178k, Overall Rank: 29k, green arrow 26k, Team Value: £102.9m
Arnautovic to Chicharito
Costas Chari
Costas finished with an OR of 29k last season and 27k in 16/17
GW15 points: 68 (average 45) Total points 882, Gameweek rank 293k, Overall Rank: 180k, green arrow 103k, Team Value: £101.9m
Hey guys! Green arrows everywhere finally! Racked up 23 points more than the average that gave me around 100k overall green arrow.
Before the gameweek was over though I had 3 injured players- Mane, Martial and Arnautovic. This forces me to make 2 transfers with a 4 point hit.
I went for Aubameyang instead of Arnautovic and Snodgrass instead of Mane. Mane was going to go either way as he is too inconsistent for his price tag. Aubameyang even if he gets benched tomorrow is a great addition and Snodgrass with a mere 0.4% ownership and a good fixture is a good gamble I am willing to take.
The lineup is pretty straightforward actually. The only question is starting Jimenez instead of Martial as I fear he wont start and make a sub Appearence for 20ish minutes. Mourinho said the injury wasn’t anything special so if he starts I think he will deliver so I am leaving him in.
As for the captain choice. I think Kane wont play the full 90 min as he has Barcelona mid- week and Auba might get benched but since Emery gives him minutes even when benched and he has scored 2 double digits on GWs 8 & 9 off the bench I am going with him.
Good luck everyone!
Scott Hargadon
Scott finished with an OR of 70k and 21k OR in 16/17.
GW15 points: 36 -4 (average 45) Total points 868, Gameweek rank 4,534k, Overall Rank: 266k, red arrow 115k, Team Value: £102.6m
Another bad week. Unlike last year where I spiralled downward in December due to injuries but did not take hits to be conservative, this year I am trying to buy my way out of a slump. The team I have now is pretty close to what I envisioned three weeks ago but restricted myself to -4 the last two weeks.
Kane, Sterling and TAA in—Arnautovic, Salah, Alonso out. Aubameyang captain. At some point I think things will turn. If not, then so be it.
Sergio Torija
Sergio finished with an OR of 17k last season and 21k in 16/17
GW15 points: 57 -4 (average 45) Total points 833, Gameweek rank 1,240k, Overall Rank: 609k, green arrow 41k, Team Value: £102.2m
GW15 was slightly better than average with 57 points (-4), although most points came from captain Kane and Fabianski, which both are highly owned in the top part of the ranks.
Moves this week are Salah and Arnautovic to Sterling and Lacazette. Sad to remove Salah, but someone had to go. Hopefully he won’t explode before I manage to bring him back in few weeks time. Lacazette for captain this week.
Good luck for GW16 Geekers !
Mikael Hietala
Mikael finished with an OR of 22k last season
GW15 points: 48 (average 45) Total points 787, Gameweek rank 2,552k, Overall Rank: 1,445k, green arrow 2k, Team Value: £101.5m
The updates on Aguero’s and Arnie’s injuries made this an easy decision, even though there are some other issues in the team (Chelsea players out and Liverpool in). Those will just have to be sorted out later as I foresee some more teamsheet surprises this weekend, and I’m not ready to take a -8 hit either. Let’s hope Hazard somehow manages to work his magic against the second best defense in the league.
Aubameyang is the bandwagon recruit, while I have been impressed with Chicharito in the last gameweeks and think Pellegrini will pick him for his heading abilities (Perez will then be the super sub, or maybe second striker).
Captain will be Aubameyang, vice will be richarlison due to his gametime safety.
Cheers and good luck,
Mikael
