Introduction

This is 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 won’t cover
transfers in real time either. It’s just to
give an idea of the trends for the week
no more. The teams are shown as their
“final-ish” teams so they could change.
Where they have twitter accounts I
have shown this and they may update
them there or on our Slack Channel
which is part of our subscription
Patreon site but this is not guaranteed

Harry Vernon

Harry Vernon’s last 4 seasons are 22k,

6k, an incredible 224th and 6k

GW17 points: 74 (FPL average 56)

Total points: 1,063, Overall Rank: 54k,
green arrow: 23k Team Value: £103.2m

This is my final draft for BGW18, unless

of course any news breaks regarding
injuries, rotations and postponements
etc. If that happens, I will tweet any
changes.

Looking back over my first Free Hit

draft very little has actually changed.
Steve Bruce has been talking Dubravka
up lately. Since I do not have a playing
keeper on my bench, I am going to play
it safe and play Leno instead of Darlow.
I have also had to swap Yedlin in for
Holding as a bench warmer.

At the back, there are 4 teams with a

good chance of a clean sheet:

Man City, Man United, Arsenal and

Spurs. I have 2 players from both Man
City and Arsenal. The City ones I am
happy with, but would ideally prefer a
Spurs defender.

A clean sheet for either the Cityzens or

the Gunners would pay big dividends.

My midfield is strong. Any of KDB,

Bruno, Son and Rashford who could
haul big. Saka looks excellent value.

Up top Kane could score big too. Wilson

has a minor injury concern.

The down side of my team is the weak

bench. I am understandably worried
about this, as in the last 2 GWs, I have
only had 10 and then 11 players on the
pitch.

This is the downside of playing a 352

formation. However, it is only for one
GW and fingers crossed, I can escape
unscathed.

My captain will be Bruno Fernandes,

with KDB as vice.

I feel bullish about Man United. They

have a great chance of going top and
will want to put down a marker before
their clash with Liverpool at Anfield.

Good luck everyone and keep safe.

The big change this week was the loss

of the Villa game which means Spurs
now have Fulham instead, this didn’t
change my squad that much but it did
bring the greater possibility of a spurs
clean sheet. This gave me the chance
to look at other spurs squad options,
given the goals and assists son and
Kane bring

I didn’t think midfield appealed much,

but I looked at the defence again. I
think Dier for 5.1 o!ers some value,
Reguilon probably the most threat at
5.7 with some game time risk (pity)
while Alderweireld was a bit
inbetweener price wise at 5.4.

For my team the goalkeeper situation

was shaky so I felt a bit of upgrade was
in order, I had some cash so I went
with Lloris instead of Leno to open up
another Arsenal option further up the
pitch. Hes an easy downgrade to
Darlow or even Pickford.

At the back I have kept Stones and Dias

from my free hit draft, but upgraded
Holding to Teirney today for obvious
reasons. I know cancelo is in a lot of
teams but I feel Stones and Dias will
support each other in terms of game
time risk. I don’t see part appearances
so it feels quite secure with best clean
sheet potential.

My backup is Siass at Wolves which

might be a risk in a potential close
game but Wolves have a good record vs
Everton and he does o!er the chance
of a potential goal. Given I have a non
player sub in Douglas I thought its
sensible to have a solid 4th option but
still lots of potential to swap him out
for others.

In midfield I have gone with the big

guns in Son KDB and Bruno, finally
deciding to pair them with Neto. Smith-
rowe who is very cheap and in form for
backup, I had looked at Saka for 4th
spot but I felt that with Podence out
Wolves’ Neto o!ered good threat and
saved money to invest elsewhere in the
squad.

Up top I am going Kane like most, with

Wilson as cheap option (some game
risk , but I think he plays) . Rather than
cheap I have decided to get the on
form Lacazette in, although Martial was
interesting given his recent form vs
Burnley..
