FPL - Fantasy Premier League - 2024/25

Tempted to use the free hit this week (GW 33), with 4 teams having a DGW. I have 3 Palace, 2 City and 2 Arsenal (no Villa) in my team at the moment. I have one free transfer, but don't really want to take a minus if I can help it. Liverpool are at Leicester, so I want to keep Salah, and captain him. Maybe move out my 3 Newcastle players (away at Villa), Cucurella (away at Fulham) and Verbruggen (away at Brentford). Get in 3 Villa players, another Arsenal player and another City player. Leaving me with 3 Palace, 3 Villa, 3 City, 3 Arsenal, and Salah, Wood and Fabianski.

I'd check the GW34 fixtures Jim, by my reckoning you've only got 7 players, so you'll need the FH for then unless you're planning on taking a big minus.

Come GW 34, I'll have two free transfers (one at the moment, and one to come before the deadline for GW 34). So, it'd be a -8 at worst (not counting the bench).

Would you take a minus? I've been considering everything all the way up to a -12.

I may take a -4, but it is going to have to pay off, and I'm not sure that will be on minutes risks as I've already noted above, but I'm still thinking there.

Given I've spectacularly burned my BB on late game clean sheets being wiped out, I can now answer BH85 that the ideal week to play that chip for me was either of the 2 weeks prior when I let 21 points waste away each time on the bench then in getting the clean sheets wrong, despite the better odds in the starter.

I want to get Mbuemo and Wissa in for the last 4 games, and this week's fixture is also good, I'm free hitting in 34 so the Forest game doesn't bother me.

Selling Isak to Wissa frees up a lot of coin.

I'm not sure I'm selling any of my Newcastle yet, and let's remember they're playing for UCL. I'm not sure what Brentford will be playing for down the stretch. Mbeumo is looking like a potential, but I'm not sure I'm going back to more than one on that team, especially since they have no chance of doubling in GW36, and 4 teams likely will.

after what I saw today, maybe I sell CP before their second double?

I'm getting nothing from that bunch. Newcastle? Not going anywhere yet.

You've helped change my mind regarding the Newcastle players, they are playing really well tbh. I think they are nailed to finish top 3 or 4.

Disappointed with TC Isak though, I suppose I should be grateful he finally got a goal but one goal and one assist when Newcastle scored a combined nine goals is a bit of a letdown.

Palace look terrible at the back but might get a goal or two in the Bournemouth game, that's about all the encouragement I can offer lol.

I'm in the same boat as you.

Apparently Isak could (should?) have had a hat trick. If he had, I wouldn't have been far off the three figure mark. As has been said, the Palace players were terrible. 19 points off three of them in a DGW isn't great.

I watched the arsenal game but have just seen the highlights, and he could have scored more than one but non of the chances were easy, his goal was a good finish tbh, and the keeper made a couple of decent saves.
 
71 pretty shite, fallen down to 5th in my league and about 150 points from top.

either FH or bench boost for this game week, im undecided.
 
Gone with my FH this week. 3 players from the 4 sides with a DGW. Also tempted to play my BB (Fabianski, Isak, Malen and Gvardiol). Salah only has a single game, but it's at Leicester. I'd be reluctant to not have him in my XI, and as captain, even though he's been lukewarm in the last few weeks (6, 2, 3 ,0, 15 and 6). Surely, a shit Leicester is tailor made for him? I will have 2 free transfers to go towards filling the holes in my squad for GW 34, but I'll need to take a hit (possibly as much as a -12, though a -8 may suffice if I write the bench off).
 
86 for me. 23 of them from ass man Howe.

I got 42 from my ass man over 3 weeks. Seems good but no idea what good is for that chip.

For next week I've got 7 players with a dbl week.

Then I'm using the wild card for the blanks the week after. Then I'm out of chips.
