Fantasy Premier League 2024/25

Who to captain this week

My team
Sels
Robinson - Timber - Huijsen - Milenkovic
Palmer - Kluivert - Mbeumo - Elanga
Beto - Wissa
Tough one that. I'd go Kluivert or otherwise would take a punt on a Forest clean sheet at Ipswich and select Milenkovic or something like that :lol:
 
I’m debating whether to go into this GW fielding the 9 players I’ve got available and save my free hit for later. The alternative is to take a -4 to get to 11 but I’m already chasing in my ML so every point is vital at this stage. Any suggestions?

How much money would you lose selling him and buying him back?
Are you wildcarding soon after to get him back in?
Who are you planning to swap him out for?

These are the questions you need to answer to work out if it's worth it or not.

Sorry I edited that post once I realised I could keep Isak and take a -4 elsewhere by selling VVD and Roger’s and bringing in Ait Nouri and MGW. I’ve already used my wildcard so that’s why I’m debating keeping the free hit for GW34. It’s just the thought of taking a -4 and it back firing when I’m in desperate need of every point I can get.

No worries. Should be decent moves. But yeah bench Isak if you don't have a wildcard to get him back for sure. Even more so if you've got a lot of funds tied up in him.
 
True
I was thinking about Sels to take the risk on it
But yeah right now I have Kluivert as captain

I think Sels is even worse than a defender personally. One jammy goal and it's over. Also unlikely to get a load of save points against Ipswich surely?

A defensive pick as captain has to have strong goal threat as well as be in a decent defensive side for me but again I'd never go for it as one jammy goal and that's most of their potential points gone.

You pick attacking players because they can score any time and you don't have to worry about clean sheets (apart from the 1 point a mid gets I guess).
 
My free hit team. I'm open to suggested improvements:

Sels
Ait-Nouri, Gvardiol, Dalot
Kluivert, Bruno, Bowen, Odobert
Haaland (C), Marmoush, Wood

Bench:
Sa, Son, Aina, Gabriel

0.7m in the bank

I wouldn't start Dalot vs any other team but Leicester are terrible at scoring goals and I don't want to double up on Forest or Wolves defenders. I wasn't sure who to include from the Fulham vs Spurs game so I started Odobert after his brace last night and benched a 9.7m Son.

Edit: I'll probably bring in Mbeumo for Bowen or Son.

Used my FH and got this at the minute. Any suggestions?

Pickford

Gvardiol Ait Nouri Aina

Gibbs-White Bruno Palmer Kluivert

Haaland Wood Wissa

Subs: Flekken Dango Saliba Faes
 
Ive managed to get 11 out.

Sels
Gabriel Robinson Mykolenko
Nwaneri Mbeumo Minteh Kluivert
Haaland (C) Marmoush Wood.

Bench: Fabianski, Salah, Konate, Hall.

I will bring back Isak for Marmoush next week.

Then the week after probably Sels to Henderson. Hall to Livramento. Robinson to Munoz

Then I will look at getting Gvardiol & Rogers for Nwaneri & Konate.

Palace double is at City and at Newcastle, I wouldn't go out of my way to bring both Henderson and Munoz in for that personally. If you're bringing in Munoz, would make sense to do it before GW30 since they have Soton away then.

Youre probably right RE Palace defenders - they have a pretty tough end to the season aswell.

Instead of Munoz I might try to bring Sarr in for Minteh - even vs City / Newcastle Id expect them to grab a goal.
 
I'm still tempted to captain Salah. What if he comes on for West Ham on Saturday to secure Goodison's last ever hattrick?
 
What do you want people to say with so little info? Obviously a free hit is better than going with 8 :lol:

Mitoma kluivert palmer
Beto wood is the team playing (8). Kluivert captain.
I’m just wondering is there a better opportunity coming up to play FH or should I pull the trigger now.
 
Thinking Gvardiol and Kluivert (-4) for TAA and Dango.

Chances are its a maximum -3 if you consider the liklihood Dango is benched and does nothing off the bench and even though Kluivert is highly owned, I would still rather be 3 points worst off if he hauls.

Also allows me 10 out as opposed to 9 and he's got the highest projected ceiling with the exception being Haaland, who isn't attainable.

Gvardiol at least gives me some cover on the City front and both transfers opens up WC31, providing an extra week to further justify the hit.

Does this sound convincing?!

This should help. I would’ve made 2 transfer and rather have 10 players and keep FH for 34. But then again also depends on what’s your aim towards the league and if it impacts your ML, if you part of it
