It’s an early deadline for Gameweek 32 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL), which means that Friday is even busier than usual on the site.

The questions on transfer dilemmas and chip strategy are free-flowing in the comments section and so we’ve again asked five-time top 1k finisher and Scout’s Deputy Editor, Tom Freeman, to answer some of them over the next 60 minutes.

He’ll be on hand to first reply to requests from Premium Members in the Hot Topic below the line of this piece and will get through as many as he can until the next article goes up.

If there’s time, Tom will also turn his attention to other requests in the comments section.

As ever, you can chip in with your own opinions on the raft of RMT requests filtering through – and naturally, feel free to ignore the article subject matter and talk about any other wider FPL topics that you’d normally be musing on.

Don’t forget that, if it’s an algorithmic answer you’re after rather than an opinion-based one, we also have a ‘Rate My Team’ tool available in the Premium Members Area.

    Have 1 FT and not sure if I should bring Madders in for Coutinho due to benching headache! Who to bench of this lot?

    Saving that FT is an option but I am likely to FH33.

    1) TAA vs City
    2) Cancelo vs Pool
    3) Madders vs Palace
    4) Toney vs Hammers

    1. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years

      4

  2. tim_oriordan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Who would you bench?

    A) Coady
    B) Robertson

    1. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      A

    2. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      A

    3. Old Wulfrunian
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      a

    gameweek 33 question

    if you was free hitting who would you bring in out of these two options (kane will be in both teams)

    a) jota & son
    b) KDB & kulu

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Probably A

  4. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Bottomed: RMT + Plans please?

    Sa
    Trent, Robbo, James, Rudi, Doherty
    Salah, Ziyech, Maddi, Bowen
    Kane (c)

    Foster, Gelhardt, Ramsey, Broja

    As it stands only Sa, Bowen & Broja don't double in GW36 (when I plan on using my final chip - BB). I have two FTs and 0.0 ITB. I'm thinking Sa > Schmeichel and rolling the FT (giving Ziyech his final roll of the dice to turn up). Alternatively I can do Ziyech > Saka

    The above two transfers means I'll have enough funds to do Gelhardt > Mateta in GW33 (who also doesn't double in GW36 but is showing some form) and well frankly I'd rather him vs Watford at home than Gelhardt vs Arsenal (away) and Chelsea (home).

    Still sitting on the fence about losing Salah.

  5. Tonyawesome69
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Start weghorst over VVD?

    WC34 & BB33/36/37 left
    1FT 0.3ITB
    Ramsdale
    Doherty James TAA
    Saka Raphinha Salah Kulu Barnes
    Kane Weghorst
    (Foster VVD Tierney Broja)

    Best Leicester defender to buy?
    Are any of them nailed?

    1. How I met your Mata
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Justin I would say is

      1. Boss Hogg
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        No threat from Perreira?
        What about Castagne? Or is he at risk too?

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Fofana - safe
      Justin/Castagne - risky but higher ceiling

      1. Bobby Crush
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        This

    3. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Evans is most nailed, a bit of a left field option.

    Foster - Kilman Ramsey Broja*

    Likely going to FH33, BB36, so need to spend my two FTs. Thinking maybe Kilman + Broja > Laporte + Cucho/Mateta? Or go for a cheaper defender?

    Salah Son Foden Saka Kulusevski
    Rodrigo Weghorst

    (Bachmann Davies Kilman Broja)

    I have 1 ft and 1.6 to spend. Probably FHing next week, and wc either 34 or 35, so looking for a 1 week punt really, or this week + 34.

    Any ideas?

    Cant see any appealing attackers. Maybe foden to someone?

  14. Ronny Sandstone
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Worth doing the Salah to Bruno merry-go-round if you have a FH for 34 rather than a WC? (bring him back permanently in 35)

    Cheers

    1. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I wouldn't.
      How about KDB?

      1. Ronny Sandstone
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Tempting, being swayed by the impending double of Bruno though, I'll probably hold tight and see how I come out of this game week now

        Cheers

  15. Devos

    Who should I pick between the sticks? (WC in GW34)

    a) DDG (eve, NOR, liv)
    b) Schmeichel (CRY, new, eve)
    c) Ramsdale (BHA, sou, che)

    Thanks in advance!

    Guys, bench one.....

    A, Weghorseshit ( A Norwich )
    B, White.....( H Brighton )

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B - give horseshit another chance

    2. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      B.
      You can't bench a striker who should start against Norwich.

    3. Jock Grealish
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      neither

  17. HD7
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    1Play Schar Fraser or Weghorst, mates?

    2 Wonder If I should bench James or Maddison because they can come in only for 10-15mins?

    1. JOC11
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Fraser a doubt to start apparently & I like starting Schar over Weghorst, he's a goal threat & decent CS chance

      2nd one is a tough one, go with gut

      1. HD7
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        Injured or?

    2. Drexl Spivey
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Well I have Dubravka, Fraser, Weghorst, James and Maddison - and I'm benching Fraser.

  18. Lord Flashheart

    terrible benching headache - please bench two:

    A Robertson (mci)
    B cancelo (LIV)
    C white (BHA)
    D weg (nor)

      d e

  19. Pep Roulette
    • 8 Years

    Why no love for Iheanacho here?

    1. Boss Hogg
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Europe + Vardy coming back = rotation beckons for the dgws.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Moving funds away from fwds and not cheap enough

    3. Jock Grealish
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      rotation risk

  20. Silecro
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    best budget striker just for this week?

    A) Pukki
    B) Cucho
    C) Mateta
    D) ASM

    Which one would you play this week?

    1. Kodap
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      I'm debating Nacho, or Mateta.

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Mateta

    3. OptimusBlack

  21. John Colby (C)
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Morning all.

    Would you prioritise bringing in Martinelli or Saint Maximin for this game week. I have Saka in my squad but no Newcastle.

    1. Jock Grealish
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Newcastle have been pants

      1. John Colby (C)
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        True and Wolves are tight at the back but Potter’s side never get a hammering

  22. kellamergh
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    How is my team looking?
    Might take a hit, to bring a DGW33 player, yet.

    Ramsdale
    TAA Rudiger White Saiss
    Saka Raphinha Kulusevski Salah
    Weghorst Kane(C)

    Foster Robertson Ramsey Davis

    3m itb
    1FH, WC and BB available

    1. Jock Grealish

      looks fine

  23. Peter Ouch
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Hi, would you take out White for Doherty for free?
    I know Ars have a double next week but I cant see White returning more than a CS

  24. jblakes
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Asm or wood for next few weeks?

  25. _Make
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Weghorst
    /veghɔːst/

    noun

    To do the same thing over and over expecting different results

    1. Sandy Ravage
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Lol!

      1. _Make
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 10 months ago

        The sad thing is, I am seriously considering giving him "one more shot" vs Norwich, over Adams who all of a sudden has a nice fixture against a defensively shambolic Chelsea.

        I do believe that I have gone stark staring Weghorst.

  26. melvinmbabazi

    Thoughts on what to do this week?
    Planning to FH33 B36
    Thinking Kilman to Doherty
    Any other suggestions?

    1FT 3.4 ITB

    Ramsdale
    James Robertson Rudiger Cancelo
    Salah Saka Martinelli Barnes
    Kane Weghorst

    Dubravka Kilman Ramsey *Broja

    Thanks

  27. sunzip14

    Who do you think are the must have 3 players for GW32?

    1. Well you know, Triffic
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Weghorst

    2. Drexl Spivey
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Saka, Maddison and James.

  28. Kodap
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    If I make the move to do Maupay > Nacho/Mateta, would you bench anyone from my starting 11 to play two up front?

    Ramsdale
    Robbo - Taa - Cancelo - James
    Salah - Son - Kulu - Saka - Raph
    Weg

    DDG - Nacho/Mateta - Ait Nouri - Broja

  29. Drexl Spivey
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    If you have Cancelo and Robertson you play them, right?

    Logic being, if it's a cagey affair there's likely at least a clean sheet, whereas if it's a goalfest they'll both be in the thick of it.

    Not that I doubt Amartey's talent of course, second off my bench.

    1. sunzip14
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      Yes

  30. yeahnotbad
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 10 months ago

    Replacement for Tierney?
    White (nailed)
    Cedric (cheaper and would allow me to get Maddo for GW33)

    1. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 10 months ago

      White, or if another team, Leicester?
