Fantasy Premier League managers are faced with a different kind of dilemma this week as they look to negotiate the upcoming Blank Gameweek 27.

Manchester City, Everton, Chelsea and Brighton will all be out of action over the weekend of February 23, and we’ll have to plan our moves accordingly.

Here to help you with any issues you might have are three more Fantasy managers from our rotating panel.

Submit your questions below…

Who’s on the panel this week?

Simon March – Former FPL champion who won the title in 2014/15. Has regularly contributed to these pages ever since.

Ben Crabtree – Another FPL title winner, who secured the crown in the 2016/17 campaign.

David Munday – editor of Fantasy Football Scout, a man who spends too much time in the members area for his own good.

      1. g40steve
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

  4. Touré De Force
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Leicster 9/2 ftw here. Too big to ignore, exactly the type of game that suits them.

    3. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Whizzer, any chance of posting teams without first names....bit of a pain in the Llorente, to be honest....

    4. Teror
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Who's up front for Lester then? Maddison?

      1. Merlinsnose
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years

    5. Dreaming of glory
      • 10 Years

    Vardy benched

    1. Homer21
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Not surprised

  9. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Tielemans will be interesting

  10. The Mighty Hippo
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Alderweireld benched ffs

  11. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Imagine dropping Vardy against Spurs. Always scores against them

    1. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Definite problems there.

  12. Jordan.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years

    no toby cant believe it

    1. Jordan.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      all this bloody rotation is killing my interest for this game

    2. Tev
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Ffs...Gylfi and Digne both hit the bar leaving Holebas with 7 points last on my bench... fkn AWB now comes in for Toby. Can’t make it up

  13. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Let’s see if Harvey Barnes impresses again. Looks a really good player so far.

  14. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Vardy officially dead as an FPL option?

    1. A.T
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Carrier pigeon?

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Eh?

    2. BigBillyBass
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

    1. Ginkapo FPL
      • 14 Years

  16. BobbyDoesNotLook
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    2ft which of the moves to do:

    A) Rich > Anderson/Jota
    B) Ings > Rondon
    C) Digne > Kola/Pereira

    Etheridge
    Robbo TAA Doherty Awb (Digne)
    Salah Son Pogba (Haz, Rich)
    Rash Jimmy (Ings)

    1. Teror
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      A. Would probably do Fanderson.

  17. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    No Lamela in team or bench? Other players might get to touch the ball....

  18. GianniBanani
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Both bgws 31 and 33 will be confirmed after Chelsea-United?

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Nope only bgw 31.

    2. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      No. GW33 only confirmed after FA Cup QFs in GW31

    3. GianniBanani
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Thanks, so up to three transfers between bgw 31 and 33

  19. Amey
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    False 9 for Leister ??
    Barnes/tielemans ??

  20. A.T
    • 16 Years

    1. Clintymints
      • 17 Years

      4231 prob

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Back 4
      3 central mids
      Eriksen & Son floating about
      1Target man

      1. A.T
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I was wondering if it'd be that.

  21. jia you
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Leicester playing a 2-8 formation today!

  22. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    That Leicester side . . Who the f is the striker?!

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Gray

      1. Ask Yourself
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        He has done it before

      2. Differential C (Mark)
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        I guess CS for Spurs, then!

  23. El Lobito 10
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone getting in Pereira now for Leicester's kind run? He's class.

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      I'm

      1. Amey
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        For Digne*

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah - unless Palace get knocked out of the cup and I decide to get a Toon defender instead

    3. The 5% Team
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      has been waiting on my bench, ready for next run of fixtures

      1. El Lobito 10
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Hopefully this Vardy thing doesn't become a soap opera as it would distract. Also, would deprive Pereira of a good striker to assist.

    4. JIMMY TUGGINS
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Either him, Maguire or Chilwell, plenty of time to decide.

  24. Ange Ball
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Logic to do
    Sane>Anderson
    Aguero > Auba/Laca Free
    Is it worth it to also upgrade Kamara to Arnie -4 but its leaves me 0.1 if Aguero raises I cannot get home back.

    I appreciate feed back.

    1. Ange Ball
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Him not home lol

  25. Firminooooo
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Would like an assist or goal from Trippier today.

    1. jia you
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      yes please

  26. jia you
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Triple MUN = 0-3
    Triple LIV = 3-0
    Triple Spurs = I'll take a 3-0 win 😉

    1. Amey
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      😮
      I thought i have too many eggs in 2-3 baskets.
      3 pool
      2 United
      2 Wolves

      But you beat me @ that.

      1. jia you
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah...just need a big performance from Spurs and I'll be quite content that I went down that route, fingers crossed!

        1. Amey
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 5 months ago

          GL

  27. Differential C (Mark)
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Vardy-Puel bustup? Insane to bench Vardy vs Spurs, he's the ideal striker to play for an underdog team imo. Shocking decision.

    1. El Lobito 10
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      He might be njured. Take some cool it juice until we know pal.

  28. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Vardy benched?

    1. Goat
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      No

  29. Scheister
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Playing draft on a different site. Need to play one and drop one for Spurs match. Any advice? Cheers

    Llorente
    Sanchez

    1. The 5% Team
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      play attacker

    2. SADIO SANÉ
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      can you get Sanchez back easily? probably Llorente for this game, but Kane will be back soonish

  30. Vlad Tepes
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 5 months ago

    Come on Trippier, Son and Llorente!!!!!!!!!

    1. jia you
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      C'mon Trippier, Son & Eriksen!!!!!!!!
