An early deadline for Gameweek 11 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) is almost upon us, so we’ve again enlisted the services of five-time top 1k finisher Tom Freeman to answer some of your questions over the next hour.

From injuries to Aleksandar Mitrovic (£6.7m) and Reece James (£6.1m) to the upcoming blanks for Arsenal and Manchester City, there are plenty of posers for FPL bosses to consider ahead of the weekend.

Wildcard drafts, free transfers, points hits: whatever your strategy is and whatever’s on your mind, ask away.

Tom will 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.

You can, as ever, chip in with your own opinions on the RMT requests filtering through – and naturally, you’re 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.

    PLay Ward or Sanchez?

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'm starting Sanchez this GW.

    2. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Think I will go with Sanchez.

  3. yanky
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Start one:
    a) Dunk (bre)
    b) Andreas (BOU)

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

      b

  5. Here is Cash, give McGinn
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Almiron worth to considerate as 4th and 5th midfielder with Andreas? mostly on the bench
    thinking Bailey -> Almiron

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Good option

  6. hustler7
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Hi Tom!

    For GW12 and going forward who do you prefer from Salah or Kane?

  7. RJT14
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Best Brighton defender for next 2 game weeks?

    1. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Dunk

    2. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Dunk

    3. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Dunkers

      1. Andy_Social
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Why Dunk over Webster, Veltman or Estupinian? Is this just groupthink?

        1. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Historical bias, but also most nailed, even though former two practically are.

        2. The Mentaculus
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Estupinan for me

  8. The Philosopher
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Captain:

    A: Kane
    B: Haaland

    1. Rojo's Modern Life
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No brainer. Liverpool defense is dreadful

    2. Stimps
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Both good options, will go Haaland seeing as Liverpool defence injuries

  9. mcginnntonic
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Would you hold james or move onto a cheaper defender

    If so who would you look at - Kilman, webster, etc

    1. JBG
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Cheaper

    2. Aussie Rules
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Dunk/Webster or Castagne maybe is what I’m considering

  10. revelc
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on this WC Team?

    Sanchez (Ward)

    Dier - Trippier - Cancelo (Neco - Mings)
    Martinelli - Maddison - Trossard - Antony (Andreas)
    Haaland - Kane - Firmino

    Or better Saliba and Toney instead of Mings and Firmino?
    And Antony or Zaha?

  11. Zambian FPL Addict
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    With the news of Enoch Mwepu's retirement, all the Zambian players seem to be on fire around Europe, adding to the fact it's October our national month, in addition to Mwepu being he's best freind I would put my money on strong Patson Daka returns!

  12. SKENG
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Best James replacement for next 2-3 GWs under 6.1?

    A) Dunk
    B) Cucurella
    C) Guehi
    D) Justin
    E) Kilman
    F) Perisic

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I like Dunk/Webster if you can bench them against City in GW13.

    2. WALOR
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I just did Dunk

    3. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      It's a slam dunk for me

    4. Aussie Rules
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’m thinking Dunk/Webster.
      Any reason Justin over Castagne?

  13. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    With Mitro not in the training video. Worth doing KDB/Mitro to Trossard/Kane? 2FT 0.6ITB

    Pope
    Cancelo James Trippier
    KDB Zaha Maddison Martinelli
    Haaland Mitrovic Toney

    Iversen Andreas Saliba Guehi

    1. I Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Considering it but I'm not sure. It stops us from getting a Liverpool attacker next week doesn't it? I might just let Andreas come in for Mitrovic if he misses out and reassess in GW12.

    2. kamdaraji
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      What training video?

  14. Rockdoc
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Have to bench one of the following three for this weekend: Dier, Castagne or Gross. Which one?

    1. Konstaapeli
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Haha. Can't believe some have benching dilemmas when my team is a dumpster fire full of flags.

      1. Konstaapeli
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Dier 😆

      2. Rockdoc
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Best reply ever 😀

      3. Powers106
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Mine is too!!

    2. Magical
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Castagne

    3. PScholes18
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Castagne any day.

  15. TimmyFPL
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What is the optimal transfer here? Really seem to be struggling for ideas. Open to the idea of a -4. Got 1FT and 4.0 ITB

    Fabianksi
    James Trippier Dunk
    KDB Zaha Maddison Martinelli
    Haaland Mitrovic Wilson

    Iversen Andreas Guehi N. Williams

    1. Cheeky Onion
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Tough, I'd be between the following:

      A) Mitro > Auba OR James > Peresic/Sess

      B) Mitro + James > Kane + Bri/Wolves def

      C) Roll & assess Mitro & James next GW

  16. WhatWouldYourZlatanSay
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Pope
    Cancelo-Trippier-James
    Marti-Diaz*-Maddison-Foden
    Auba-Haaland-Jesus
    (Ward, Andreas, Dunk, Neco)

    Diaz >
    1. Trossard
    2. Zaha

    Probably WC in gw13 so just a couple of games.

    Cheers guys.

    1. Sun God Nika
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Would lean zaha cause it's Leicester def

  17. Il Capitano
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    2FT 0.8m ITB

    Pope
    Cancelo James* Trippier
    Foden Maddison Zaha Martinelli
    Haaland Kane Mitro*

    Ward - Andreas Neco Patterson*

    Thinking just Patterson out to a Brighton/Palace/Wolves defender to cover James and rolling the second FT.

    1. Cheeky Onion
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Agreed

  18. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Let say Mitro is fit to play GWs 12-14, who would you pick as Toney's replacement - Pool fwd or Kane?

    I could only fit one player from Spurs and Pool so it's kinda tough.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Kane

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Darwin/Firmino.

  19. Cheeky Onion
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Who to have first bench if James is out?

    A) Neco (wol)

    B) Mings (CHE)

    1. dragen5
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Neco

    2. Z
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Mings...Neco is not nailled anymore

  20. dragen5
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Play
    Webster (BRE)
    or
    Castagne (CRY)

    Thanks

  21. balint84
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Zaha or Maddison?

    and why?

  22. ZeBestee
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is Mitro fit?

    1. kamdaraji
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      He's really good looking

    2. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      We'll know (maybe) in 45 mins

    1. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Is this source reliable?

      1. BeWater
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Sami Mokbel has about 70k followers and a blue tick. Make of that what you want. Worrying though.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No idea who I want to replace him with

      1. aapoman
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I'd just drop down to Dunk and bank the cash.

  23. Z
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kane captain! Wish me luck!

    1. Junks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yikes!! I've made that mistake already this season and it hurt bad!!

  24. CostaCoffee
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Reece James injury worse than feared, may need surgery and miss the World Cup

    1. Junks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Source?

      1. kamdaraji
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        barbeque source

  25. Jones Kusi
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What to do you reckon?
    0 ITB 2 FT

    Guaita Iversen
    TAA James Cancelo Trippier Justin
    Salah Martinelli Zaha Maddison Andreas
    Greenwood Mitrovic Haaland

  26. aapoman
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    2ft and 0.3itb

    Pope
    Cancelo Castagne James*
    Bowen Maddison Zaha Martinelli
    Haaland Kane Mitro*

    Iversen; Pereira, Trippier, Neco

    Neco -> Guehi to prepare for gw12 and save the other ft? Bench is looking ok so if few players miss out I'm not too worried.

  27. Cheeky Onion
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What to do for BGW12?

    A) KdB + Jesus > Mount + Kane

    B) KdB + Jesus + James > Son + Auba + Bri/Palace def (-4)

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

  28. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Okay looks like Reece may be a sell rather than a hold and wait...

      Oh well makes the FPL decision easier I guess but dreadful news for club and country

    2. kamdaraji
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Not sure of that source. Will wait for pressers

      1. CostaCoffee

        Confirmed by Matt Law
