Sun Dream Team tips GW16 – 5 FFGeek contributors show their teams for Sun’s gameweek 16
Michael Byrom

Using the first of my December transfers this week, reinstating Tammy Abraham for the injured John Stones therefore going back to a 343 formation.

Lee Giles
Lee finished an incredible 79th overall in Sun Dream Team in his first attempt last season
GW points 92 Total points 952 Overall rank 63k
Another decent score this week with 92 points,my biggest haul since game week 9. kane was my top scorer with 20 points followed by Salah with 18 points. Liverpool finally get a clean sheet and like buses 2 come in a row! I like the look of my team at the moment the front 7 look good with 2 from Man City,Liverpool and Tottenham and Abraham who has proved to be great value for money. The only issue I have is Tomori who is carrying a knock but it doesn’t look to serious and Chelsea’s defensive form while he’s been out of the team has been poor so I’m hoping he will be straight back in the starting 11 once he’s fit.
Good luck for the game week

Game week 15
Hello once again my fellow fantasy football managers. This week my team gained a decent return of 94 points where the last set of European midweek games were played for this year. The player scores are in the picture below the commentary.
The first thing to notice with my team is the lack of player movement. I had planned to use my three transfers as outlined last week but having more time to think about it, I changed my mind. After a poor game week, maybe I was being rash with my decision making. I needed more time to evaluate and see how my team performed in game week 15.
So a good return from the Liverpool defenders TAA and Robertson. No appearance from Tomori which was very disappointing and Lampard only revealed in midweek that he was injured. City defence was awful and Ederson despite his best efforts couldn’t keep a clean sheet and no appearance in the champions league.
In midfield, one Mane stood out after star man performance in midweek but he was rested at the weekend. Sterling played ok in the Manchester Derby but his form is a worry and he was rested in city’s second game. Pulisic despite only gaining three points looks a real threat for Chelsea but may be showing signs of tiredness after a run of games. Hopefully he should be back to explosive form again after only playing 60 minutes in midweek. He is becoming a fan favourite. Finally Maddison and Leicester showing great form and he got an assist (I thought he should had two myself) and was close to scoring. He is looking like a good all rounder and I hope he plays well against his former club Norwich City this weekend and possibly Everton in league cup.
Lastly up front I was happy with the performances of Kane and Salah. The former has started December with a bang with two goals, an assist and star man award vs Burnley. Salah looked back to good form yes he missed a bucket load of chances but on an average day, he sticks one away and on a good day he doesn’t miss. He can be either a hit or miss kind of player. Next Abraham still showing consistency which is good for his value. I am looking forward to see Chelsea play Bournemouth who are severely down to bare bones due to injuries. With their best defenders Cook and Ake, the likes of Pulisic and Abraham could have a field day.
Team status
The team has a total of 979 points and an overall position of 31.5k . So a small rise of 7.5k in places = a green arrow. Three December transfers still available to use.The team has a value of 53.6 with 0.6m in the bank.
Transfers
Tomori may be still injured for this weekend (awaiting team news) but I still looking to replace him with Van Dijk but will have to raise funds. I still haven’t decided how I go about this. Possibly remove Salah but not too keen on this as he probably plays vs Watford who are in poor form and he could possibly go goal crazy as his opponents know as he scored 4 goals against them a few seasons ago. Vardy could be the replacement but a few doubts whether he can continue his good run of form (I slightly think he is overachieving and there will a dip as soon I bring him) and will he play in the league cup where his backup in Perez and iheanacho may be utilised giving the 32yr Vardy a rest. A bit of indecision here I am afraid.
November Form Guide
Finally, as a pre Christmas treat to all fantasy football geek readers, I have jotted down the 10 ten players for each position (only including top 5 goalkeepers) that were the highest point scorers for game weeks 11-14. Hopefully the stats can provide assistance for people making decisions now we have new transfers to play with.
Here’s the team points from GW15
Tom Grogan
Tom finished an incredible 34th in Sun Dream Team last season
GW15 pts: 84 total points 936 overall rank 93k
Vardy and Rashford great additions to the team. Liverpool and Spurs clean sheets with mane gaining a man of the match. City are stuttering. Sterling has not scored in what seems like forever. If he’s going to do it. It’s going to be at Arsenal.

Bryan O’Rourke
This is Bryan’s first season at Sun Dream team but he has a fantastic history in TFF finishing 37th last season and 7th in 17/18
97 points scored for the week and placed 62.1k overall.
97 points scored and placed 62114 overall.
A mixed week with good points from Vardy again and Aubameyang. You wait ages for a Liverpool sheet and then 2 come along in the same week. I have to decide what to do with Tomori and Mount who aren’t scoring for this team. I’ve made the swap Tomori out for Lindelof, leaving £5.9m in the bank to do upgrade Mount to Maradona, Pele, anyone I like, yet still undecided at this moment possibly Dele Ali. Hoping Mount starts against Bournemouth and leave the decision till next week.
Back to the xmas shopping. 2 transfers left. Good luck
