FPL - Fantasy Premier League - 2024/25

It's just that I don't fancy double Chelsea, I think I've decided to go with Wood which leaves me enough in the bank to upgrade Rogers or Smith-Rowe to Johnson as he seems a better way into the spuds attack as my next move.
I've had double Chelsea all season. They are similar to spurs. Will finish top 8 maybe top 6. I'd base the decision on how solid they are at returning over fixtures.

Woods a good buy irrespective.

Yes but one's a keeper, I don't want to take up 2 midfield slots with 2 players from the same team when the fixtures aren't great.
 
Superb start mate, and having 2 free transfers ITB make's it even more impressive.
Yeah. I've wasted a few transfers. Need to try and keep them for problems.

Savio is my issue right now and I think I need to move him out but there's a good chance he starts against wolves so will try to hold out for another game week. The max at 5 is almost as good as a wildcard.

Looking at your team I'd sell Savio and Diaz, both are rotation worries now, for Mbuemo and Johnson, both look nailed, are smashing it and have good fixtures going forward.

Mbuemo in particular is one of those players who can hurt your rank if he does well, I'd bet he's very highly owned in the top 100k.

BTW, having 2 free transfers is a compliment, you're in a great position.
 
I was planning getting Foden in but have gone off the idea for now.
Yes, and I know we talked about it before my GW06 WC, but we just haven't seen his EPL performance get to the level where he is due to rise. Heck, for all we know, he'll fall another 0.1 before we see data where it is clear it is time to bring him in.

I have 2.2m in the bank.

I can do Saka in for Madueke (10 points today) but I don't want double Chelsea midfield with the fixtures, and Solanke in for Watkins, that would leave me nothing in the bank but I'm not convinced by Solanke at spurs yet.
I'm still holding Saka and not yet planning to remove. He's got one good fixture until 3 tougher ones, but I'm not planning to remove just yet.

Alternatively I can get Wood instead of Solanke and bank 1.4m for future upgrades.

Thoughts?
I have 2 cheap FWDs to go with Haaland, and after this weekend, Wood is the one I wish I had chosen instead of DCL on WC. Everton still has some decent fixtures coming up, but my patience with him is running low at the moment.

Mbuemo is one I've definitely looked into. The issue is 2 things. He's 1m more than savio and I'm 0.4 away from doing that. All my other mids and attack are high performing. I've just swapped jota for Diaz and am pretty confident, given form, he plays most games going forward.

I do have Ndiaye as my 3rd striker at 5.4m so could trade down there but that would be to a 5m option such as Archer at Southampton with no guarantee on starting.

The other issue is my defence which is the best of the bargain bin. All sub 5m except konate at 5. It's worked great so far and probably the reason I'm up where I am but both digne and Lewis risk getting dropped. If that happens I need to be able to trade up a little and that's why I'm trying to build some cash and transfers to use.

I could do a straight savio to Johnson and that is pretty tempting looking at his stats and fixtures. But no buemo.
