Telegraph fantasy football tips – the FFGeek contributors show their teams
Bryan O’Rourke
Bryan finished 37th in TFF last season and 7th in 17/18
Total points 1,266 Overall rank: 5.7k
Another slight push up the rankings, now placed 5728 overall with 13 transfers left.
The incoming Wolves trio scored 23 between them which made for a good week. Otto looks like a doubt for the weekend, but with an away fixture at Spurs, it’s not the worst fixture to miss so he is a hold. No transfers this week, I’m sure Abraham will come good again. Best of luck.

Sergio Torija
Sergio finished with an overall rank in the 300’s last season
TFF GW28 / week = 57points / OR = 8483 / Transfers = 11
Another decent week with 57 points and a rank improvement that takes me to 8.4K. No big hauls, but a total of 8 returning players. I put on hold my planned move of Greenwood given that he started, and repaid with a goal. Given that Martial seems now injured (yes AGAIN), he might still remain in the team. I felt transfer eager though, so I removed two players without game this week due to EFL cup final, Mahrez and Grealish, in came Jimenez and Mane, with goals each.
I was not planning any moves this week, but my patience levels with Martial are low. He is an easy direct move to De Bruyne or Vardy with the money in the bank though, so probably best to wait even if he is confirmed injured this week.
Good luck for this week geekers :)
Ben Humphrey
Ben finished with an overall rank of 576 last season
Week points: 48 Rank: 7222 Transfers remaining: 13
Team review
Mharez has gone, but he left me five points on his way out. He was, as planned, replaced by Mane, who brought me the gift of 7 points, so that all worked out just fine.
Defence was a bit of a disaster area this week, but Martial and Salah both earn their keep.
Team thoughts
No transfers pending this week. I suppose those being nearest to the shove would be Vardy, and maybe Grealish. They can both stay for now though.
Good luck everyone.

Stephen Troop
Stephen finished with an OR in the 900’s last season
A reasonable week where I rose from 5.7k to 4.8k. I used one transfer removing KDB for Jiminez for a potential 3-0. City do have an FA cup game, so this may only turn out to be 2-0 but it seemed worth the risk anyway, particularly as I have the choice to swap Firmino to KDB instead of Jiminez. I’d have done Mahrez to Mane too if it hadn’t been for having 0.3m too little.
No plans for this gameweek but will keep an eye on the City teamsheet for their FA cup game next week.
Good luck all
