Should also remember that Cancelo scored 15 I think it was at Old Trafford, on my bench.
So assuming it's a tough game could be a bad idea!

Yeah it was 14 he had a yellow as well and 2 assists.
It is tricky since I do want one Chelsea player, but for my team it is better to go without longterm.
The fact Chelsea might rotate a lot makes it even more tricky.
What does your team look like? (asking for a friend obv...)
GW30 is looking like a disaster for me, might get 6/7 players out if I'm lucky. Hopefully they'll all bang them in!
have a wildcard which I could use but not sure it would be worth it in the long term.

GW30 is such a shite selection of fixtures that I'm not sure it's worth a free hit, never mind a wildcard!
Was going to say this. Plus Chelsea don’t have a fixture in 30 so it’s not an ideal move for those that want to avoid a free hit. I’ve only got two playing defenders (for 30) at the moment, so I’ll have to lose one of Cancelo, TAA and Livra before then.
Can someone help me with Kane & Raphina or JWP vs Son & Southampton striker. Kane feels more solid and has pens and money doesn’t seem to be an issue.
Happy to hear any other advice for those cheaper slots too, but must have a game in 30.
Kane and Raph both on pens. Leeds could also have a new manager boost.
Son is great and Broja doing well. Not sold on JWP at all. He's very punty and you dont wanna be stuck with him.
Either route works. Lean towards route 1 though.
I had a whole plan in my head but after playing WW for the last few days, I've forgotten it all
Might just go ahead with the FH this week and WC next week followed by FH in GW30. That's the plan that I remember better.
WC active, I probably cganged my deaft about 50 times so far. Very tricky managing to get to a decent squad for 28+29 yet not having to FH 30. Currently sitting on this:
Ramsdale Foster
TAA Cancelo Rudiger Kilman Digne
Coutinho Raphinha Salah Saka Wilock
Kane Broja 4.5
My main Dilemma right now is Wilock + Rudiger VS Son + Liveramento.
If I stick with the above team the plan is to do Wilock to Son for 29, and then for 30 I go with Coutinho to Ramsey and bring in Dennis for Broja which gets my to 9 players for GW 30.
Any thoughts?

For those of you planning on using your final FH in GW30, is the big DGW in 36 (I think?) not a better use of it?
It depends how it all falls. Last year, my team was in a good place for the week where United had a TGW. Using BB was far more useful than a FH would have been.
This year could be the same.
If I load up on as many DGW teams in GW36 between now and then, I can BB and potentially do something big.
No idea what to do (as usual) and I’ll only get about 10 mins to look at my team tomorrow.
I still have wildcard, 2 x free hits and bench boost, so too much to think about really.

Havertz vs. Mount
Rudiger vs. James vs. T.Silva (pick two)
Adams vs. Broja
How should I play this? Rest of my team (FH):
Sa
Chelsea, Chelsea, Saiss, Digne
Chelsea, Raphinha, Coutinho, Salah
Soton, Jimenez
Rudiger vs. James vs. T.Silva (pick two)
Adams vs. Broja

Nothing obvious over the alternatives though, just pers pref.
Def need to FH?
Next year I’m hoping we’re struggling to work out which three United players we have in our Ff teams…

Thanks.
Literally the same as what I was thinking. Broja / Adams is the only one I'm not sure on. Adams has trolled me plenty in the past.
And yes, I haven't given enough thought to WC thanks to that WW game I was involved in so don't want to make a rash decision now as I'll be stuck with the team.
If I go back and think, I'm sure I had a WC that allowed like 9 DGW this week, 9 DGW next week and a full starting 11 GW30 but it had to sacrifice Son and Canelo for players from teams like Wolves or Newcastle. I dont think that's worth it.
Think I'm gonna roll in with this FH team:
Sa
Digne, T.Silva, Rudiger, Saiss
Raphinha, Salah, Coutinho, Mount, Willock
Adams
Bench: Dubravka, Broja, Jimenez, TAA
£3.4 min the bank
Any thoughts?
- Am I missing any obvious players?
- Am I including too many punts?
- Who to captain (between Rudiger, Coutinho and Raphinha)?

So free hit 30 and 33. Then use transfers to build for 36 bench boost..
Im bench boosting then
Please spoiler such horrific content.
So after slacking a bit all season.. I am still in with a shout of taking top spot in my money league after Salah TC paid off. I still have 2x fh and bb + wc.
I am WC this week and plan to FH 30. I have chose a mix of doubles over the next 2 weeks before FH and players who have a decent fixture run after.
Any obvious changes? I am seeing Mount over Havertz but won't Havertz have a chance of playing up top?

No Ward Prowse?
Coutinho and Ward Prowse are 2 I'd want to cover. But you are trying to cover 2 weeks so I get that you can't have everyone.So after slacking a bit all season.. I am still in with a shout of taking top spot in my money league after Salah TC paid off. I still have 2x fh and bb + wc.

Not sold on James
No way
Oh shit. Maybe I do WC this week then? Ffs
Considering a fairly big hit. -12 for sure, maybe even -16.
WC needs saving for the big DGWs + BB later in the season.

Don't think there's a huge difference in minutes between him and Silva. Silva is 37 and they play like 4 games in 11 days so he can be rested as well. At least with James you have the upside of covering the haul of two games in one. You just need him to start vs Norwich basically.
Long term James will likely be the most essential pick from that team.
Yeah. I am thinking of two Chelsea def if I FH and I'm thinking you get one safe bet in Rudi and the second one can be a punt. It's not like James is unfit. He has already played and should play at least one. The double is too good and the potential upside especially when you already have one safer pick makes sense.This sounds like déjà vu from earlier in the season
I might still do it.
It does make sense. My only issue is that he may come on fire a few minutes but it's a risk worth taking
feck Edouard dropped again. So now I will lose 0.4 if I don't WC. That has been my biggest mistake transfer of the last 3 seasons combined.
I have used WC after all, no better time to use it for me I think. Got a team for GW28 and GW29 and will use one of my spare FHs for GW30 anyway.
Sa
Cash Rudiger Kilman
Salah Mount Willock Raphinha
Watkins Lukaku Broja
Bench: Ramsdale, TAA, Tierney, Saka
+ £0.5m in the bank. Then next week will probably bring in someone with a double in the place of… someone I guess. I have six doubles anyway + Chelsea v Newcastle, Raphinha v Norwich, Broja v Watford… plenty to choose from.

I got really lucky with him. Got him just when he went on a run and binned him before he was inexplicably dropped. Just about to jump off Olise as well who's done ok for me.
At one point, Lukaku will score some goals in a row and hit some weird, temporary form - they are playing relegation fodder, his speciality. Before the season this would be almost TC-material, now I am only juuuuust contemplating having him on the FH. He has played four games in a row w/o goals or assists, disasterous.
Anyone else thinking he could rack up some points and even be captain material for this round?

Had to change my WC team after Chelsea's double. Going wo Trent to enable some others, and BB'ing next gw.
Thoughts?
Starting to get really twitchy about not having a Chelsea defender. Should I take a -4 to remove Cancelo.
I can’t get rid of Digne/Tierney because of 30 and Livra has a double and very good fixtures too.

Got 2FH and BB left.
Don't have time to plan this out but really wanna beat my Director to 1st place.
What should I do?
Ramsdale Foster
TAA Cancelo Livramento Mee Veltman
Salah Saka Son Bowen Cornet
Weghorst Dennis Cucho
Team isn't in the best shape.

You’d need to get more doubles in, if you have two FH’s you should be fine for the next two DGW’s.
I think I’m going to bench DeBruyne, Dias and Cancelo
Seems crazy but banking on an United performance.

Do I do Cancelo to James for a - 4?
