    Why are so many people who are bench boosting in GW36 doing their wildcard this week and not next week?

    Wouldn't it be better to wait 1 more week?

      Because I can take advantage of CHE DGW and some other good fixtures, then use 2FT to make small changes if needed, maybe with 1 hit.

      Most big players I've got in this week will double, and it seems more and more likely that MCI will double in 36 too.

      Essentially, I'd have lost out big time this week with my current team.

      Players you want for these weeks are similar. Price changes will have happened.

      But yes there could be issues going a week early. I played mine in GW32, then Doherty & Cucho both got season-ending injuries lol

      Thanks for the advice all. Some really helpful and logical we explanations. I've left it took late now and I do like to get be able to change things until the last minute so probably still would have waited.

      But really good to understand the thinking better. Thanks.
