I know I'm think of loading my bench and using the bench boost early this season say game week 2? and then wildcarding to get my money back on the pitch I never get value out of the bench boost but with the world Cup I'm thinking early wildcard could be a shout.
Lol I know I should but I never can plan for a successful bench boost maybe after the world cup I could put abit of money on the bench and maybe a double game week comes in the next few weeks?
I'm thinking of starting salah and kane for game week 1 and swapping kane to Haaland depending on the fixtures or injuries. Prices changes could catch you or injuries if you are using you free transfers on swapping kane and Haaland. For what it's worth I think he will start.
I don't think so, sounds like a plan but I seem to recall wasting a couple of hours re-jigging last season to try that, but without success.
Cheers pal waiting to see how many mins Haaland will play on Saturday and then go from there. Kane should grab a goal or two first game no doubt his price will go up and Salah.
Best way to use a Bench boost is on a double game week combined with using a wildcard the week before, sometimes if you’re lucky you get a double double GW, this mainly happens in the spring (be patient!) isn’t there an option to change your whole team in the World Cup break? Sure I read that somewhere
It's better to use it in double game weeks as hopefully the players on your bench play twice and your three captains play twice. But my problem is I'm too busy sorting injuries suspensions and trying to get in form players I never plan for it and end up not getting good value. Another thing to which is if the manager will rotate usually starters if they are playing twice in a week.
Yeah unlimited free transfers during the world cup I think. How much money do you leave on the bench? Or do you use 4.5mil players that are playing?
Always pile your money on starting 11 with maybe one decent sub then as you say cheap fillers, some people throw a £4.5M striker in who won’t play and disperse the funds elsewhere, don’t choose a Delap (unless he goes on loan) as that’s 1 of 3 from City, likewise players of other big teams, nothing worse than having to make a double sub to correct that mistake. Neco Williams Andreas Pereira Dalot all good fillers. Goalkeepers, some pick x2 £4.5M & rotate others pick an Ederson with a £4.0M back up, Leicester keepers look good for this if KS leaves & they don’t replace him
GK's are my weak spot, If I do the 4.5m pairing and rotate, I always leave the most points on the bench, because I choose the easy home fixture keeper. The premium GK's remove the chance to have 3 outfield players from the same team.
