How FFScout users are preparing for Double Gameweek 32

972 Comments

Fantasy Football Scout users have submitted an excellent set of polls to help our preparation for Double Gameweek 32.

The questions range from chip strategy to how much we should trust Manchester City and Chelsea with their fixtures.

Not surprisingly, the most requested poll centred around which of the chips is best to play in this expanded round of fixtures.

Forever in Our Shadow, Trippier Hazard, Sebes Gusztav, Nimith Enzo, Ohlsay, Nat Kane Cole and PEP_TALK all wanted to know about this one.

Jimmy Hendrix and de quiney were both keen to challenge the thinking on Free Hitting in Double Gameweek 32, suggesting Blank Gameweek 33 as an alternative option.

We had a poll from Studsy25 who wanted to know the best way of preparing for Double Gameweek 32 for those without the Free Hit or Wildcard chips.

Another hugely popular question concerned the best way to capitalise on Manchester City’s two matches, against Fulham (away) and Cardiff (home).

DMil, BBC_TF, Toblerone52, Fossit, Karsa, LosBlancos, PEP_TALK and Masteryeoda all submitted some great polls on this subject, so we combined them into one.

Given their unpredictable nature in recent times, Scout users want to know what the consensus is on Chelsea, especially their defence.

This poll came in from Beercalona, Tomthewise1, Podorsky, The Beer Baron and Dusan Citizen.

Another popular poll concerns to what extent we even trust the Double Gameweek itself.

Forever in our Shadow, BKrisztian, Leakyman and Pamino all wanted to know how many single Gameweek players would be present in our squads for Double Gameweek 32.

BenjoBD takes that question one step further to identify how many Liverpool players will be present in our Double Gameweek 32 squads.

Of those who have two matches, it does look difficult to cram all of the premium heavy hitters in.

For that reason, Saint & Reevesy, AdAdityan and FFSBullets want to know which of those we are most likely to leave out.

Finally, Diverpool wants to know to what extent Scout users are worried about rotation ahead of the FA Cup semi-finals.

Manchester City, Brighton, Watford and Wolves will be participating in the competition’s last four stages several days after their midweek Double Gameweek 32.

        Because he's one of the best players in the game and has a decent record vs Pool? And given the chance of Aguero / Sterling rest he's a great captaincy option.
        Easily the 2nd player in my team this week after Aguero.

      Pedro would be an awesome pick if I thought he'd play both games. But with Willian & CHO waiting in the wings, it's a bit far fetched to think he will play both.

      So Bats I guess, but I'm not sold on him either

      Pedro. Won't play 180 but will probably get 120. That's enough, given the fixtures (and is probably as much or better than the likes of Jota and Deulofeu will get).

      Batshuayi also a decent pick but Spurs (a) isn't an encouraging opportunity.

      I'm using mine on Kun [not played the international games,so more chance to start both than Sterling]

      Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to be able to play it in such nice fixtures on a FPL legend. But really wish I had FH instead to be honest.

      FH31 stunk to high heaven. This week will be ok with 8/9 DGWers, next week I'm screwed with only 5 players.

      If I could go back I'd choose FH this week and maybe use my TC on Mane/Salah v's Hudd, or even a Brighton player

    It's not been a great international break for those of us who chose the FH31, TC32 strategy. The FH was an absolute mare, and could have been even worse had I not lucked out on Mane capt over Salah. Now most of my DF is flagged going into next week.

    ...Kola - Shaw* - AWB*
    Pog - Son - Sterling - Mane
    ...Kun[tc] - Jimi - Rash*
    Bench - TAA* - Bennett - Punch
    1FT & .9 ITB

    Do you think I should do Kola > Luiz to up my DGW contingent to 9? Was originally planning on saving a transfer as looks like I'll only have 5 players for BGW33 as things stand?

    B] Save transfer

        you would say that, you have him!
        We had this conversation right?
        Is he fit though?

          He he.
          He was included in the Belgian camp but sent back home. I read somewhere that he's training alone.
          So, I'm hopeful he'll be fit. Need him for both my team & United's sake because Rashford seems to be knackered atm

              Yeah.
              Rest/ Injury layoff Could be good for both of them. If both are fit I'd still get Lukaku though, he is in great form so ....

      Could free up a lot of money just downgrading JWP to a 4.2 if he’s just going to be on the bench

      DDG -> Ederson
      Laporte -> Smalling
      JWP -> £4,2m
      Peltier -> Simpson

      £1.4m without weaking your XI

      Could also do AWB -> Montoya for another £0.2m, safe to say your XI will play at least 1 match but leave you with a doubler in case someone gets injured warming up or some such.
