Free hit time. No need to go around and save it.

Martinez
Virgil, Thiaw, Keane (Andersen, Dalot)
Palmer, Salah, Bruno (C), Rogers (Wilson)
Richarlison, Šeško, Watkins


And things getting more serious i see. I had 53 points last week, Bruno captain and still finished with red arrow.

Mbeumo hatrick coming up
 
Dalot-Mbeumo-Bruno(c)

Let's go!

Have the bare 11 players, with Cash the main doubt. He's back on the bench tonight in Europe at least, not sure if he'll start at the weekend. Hope so, as would be good to hold the transfer

I am curious, what are you (and others) waiting with free hit? 8 games left. Probably you have BB and maybe TC.

So, when to use FH if not now?

I've not exactly played a competitive game this season, so probably doesn't make much odds as i'm about 28th in my work league of 100 and baring an insane rampage last 8 weeks won't get near the top 8 money positions. But i have all 4 chips left!

Would have to double check what weeks any doubles or blank weeks even are to be honest - if someone can let me know!

Probably not much need to play the freehit this week though, as I have the most transferred in front 3 - have Bruno/Mbeumo v Bournie, Wilson v Burnley, Rogers v West Ham, a few decent defensive options too.

Chips allow getting Haaland back in etc

Still deciding, Because GW 34 might be better for the free hit. But with the Chalobah being out I now need to take a 8 point hit and hope King plays to get 11 players. Think I will do the free hit tonight and use my wild card for GW 34. Or vice versa, still have a few hours to decide

Think FH34 is a better move especially if you want to BB in 33.

And I just don't like the fixtures this GW. Which ones are nice apart from Fulham at home to Burnley? Bournemouth has a decent enough defense at home, Liverpool suck away from home, Chelsea are incredibly inconsistent while Everton are kinda good, Leeds usually play well at home in evening games, Villa suck, Spurs suck, that only leaves Newcastle as decent option and even they are coming off midweek travel and a 7-2 thrashing yesterday.

We'll know more about the fixtures before the GW32 deadline, I want to save my chips to have as much info as possible before deciding.
 
Really struggled to put together my FH. As someone else said the fixtures are pretty hard to call this week.
 
Any defender suggestions looking at DGW33? Chalobah injury means I need to make a sub. Current CB are Thiaw - Hill - Gabriel - Chalobah (x) - Gabriel (x).

Virgil VD is one option but highly likely they lose to city in FA Cup.

Bought in Gordon and a wave of regret instantly went through my body.

Had the same feeling, but he's on penalty's, in good form and at home to a team that's bad away from home and possibly without a few key players.

Even if he blanks, it would be a case of right process wrong outcome and I can live with that.
 
On the the other hand, he played midweek against Barcelona while Woltemade and Wissa didn't even come on a as a sub, so he might be benched as well. Great.
 
Konate to play tonight considering lot just said Gomez might not start. Worried that if Konate doesn’t play, I don’t have anyone from the bench
 
FH team:

Leno
Robinson-Anderson-Cash
Bruno-Palmar-Wirtz-Rogers
Watkins(C)-Ekitike-Pedro

First draft. Thoughts? Anybody obvious I’m missing?

Watkins (and Villa by extent) have been so bad lately, I wouldn't trust him with the armband at all. I'd even have Bowen above him to be honest, and a few midfielders above Rogers but I get the appeal with WHU at home.

Also I'd have someone from Newcastle in, probably Hall or Thiaw as you are tripled up on Fulham defense otherwise.

I have Hall and Burn on my bench, might start Hall that’s a good shout.

With Watkins it’s just a feeling thing. They need a PL win desperately and WH at home isn’t the toughest of fixtures.
 
I have kelleher. Wilson hill Virgil senesi enzo Bruno f ekitike joao Pedro starting

Is there a need for fh or save it ?

HELP

I really need advice about FH. I had Salah, he is injured and now i have 7 mil extra to spend. My current team is;
Martinez
Thiaw, Virgil, Andersen
Bruno, Gordon, Wilson, Palmer, Rogers
Richarlison, Watkins

Sesko, Keane, Dalot.

What to change? Mbeumo? Ekitike? Hall?

I wouldn't worry about spending the money. It's not possible with Salah and Haaland both out. Just pick the best team on paper. Trouble is there aren't really any outstanding fixtures apart from Fulham v Burnley. All the others could be anything.
 
Ditched that pipsqueak Wirtz along with getting a Chaloba replacement for a -4 so I can field 11 players.

Not sure its worth a free hit:

Dubravka
Andersen Justin Thiaw
Wilson Bruno(c) Enzo Anderson
Pedro Ekitike Sesko

Bench:
Raya Geuhi Gabriel Semenyo
 
Vicario
Collins Andersen Konsa
Wirtz szobaskajajaj garner Bruno
Ekiteke Raul Thiago

I’ve gone for something slightly different this week.
 
Who to field as a GK out of Verbruggen (Liverpool home) or Dubravka (Fulham away)?

Feel like both will concede but Verbruggen may get some more saves.
 
After the Salah mistake last week, I comforted myself thinking “at least my team looks good for 31. Two injuries and a red card later.

Not wasting free hit on this shower, so a -8 it is and probably a second red arrow after about 6 greens in a row.

I am sad now.
 
Need a defender.

Andersen for the shortest of short-term thinking?
Van Hecke for Liverpool (H), Burnley (A), then a likely double of Spurs (A)/Chelsea (H)?
Hall for Sunderland (H), Palace (A), likely double of Bournemouth (H)/Arsenal (A)? Already have Thiaw.
Cucurella for Everton (A), City (H), likely double of United (H), Brighton (A)?

Someone else? Small chance Leeds get a double v Wolves (H), Bournemouth (A) but I doubt it happens. Not bad fixtures the rest of the season where I might be able to use someone from them here and there, Brentford (H) this week.

Not sure any of the definitely-not-doubling defenders are worth bothering with outside of Andersen for a 1 week punt. Suppose I could be biased and pick a United player. Forest and Sunderland don't have the worst set of fixtures but they're Forest and Sunderland, and they're both away this week. Villa's fixtures aren't bad either to be fair, but they're shite right now.

Might need to play the same game with a cheaper forward too if I want 11 starters, not sure I can rely on Kroupi to start vs us tonight although I'm pretty sure he'll have at least some involvement. Think I've narrowed that one down to Welbeck, very likely double or Calvert-Lewin for a somewhat unlikely future one.

Then there's the chance to try and set up a midfielder for a double. Gordon the most obvious with Sunderland (H) this week, but there's also Chelsea and Brighton again. Not essential that I do this now though so I think I'm holding off there and try to stay flexible. Think I'm bringing in Semenyo after this week anyway, waiting to see what happens in the cup first with City and what sort of doubles that sets up.

Sucking it up and playing Dubravka. If Leeds double was more likely might have bought Darlow.

On the bright side, at least you won Last Man standing in 2019/2020?

2 players less is not nothing. If some of these will not play it is 3 less.
I am for free hit. Some here say it is better to save it. I don't know. I was on 10/11 with some really bad options (Alderete, Dubravka) and i played FH
 
Late call - stick with Cash and hope he starts H v West Ham, or move to Thiaw H v Sunderland?

Have 4 chips left so probably don't need to bank a transfer.
