With the next Fantasy Premier League (FPL) deadline following hot on the heels of Gameweek 17, we’re trying to cram in as much content as possible before Friday’s 18:15 GMT deadline.

So our regular team reveals this week take the form of an ‘all-in-one’, with four of our top contributors – Pras, Sonaldo, Zophar and Tom Freeman – sharing their Gameweek 18 plans in this article.

I’m perfectly happy to roll this week.

My thinking is as follows: my priority is to get Aleksandar Mitrovic (£7.0m) and perhaps a Chelsea attacker for Double Gameweek 19, which will go down to who I think I will captain that week. Therefore, players that could go are Anthony Martial (£6.7m), Darwin Nunez (£9.0m) and Miguel Almiron (£5.9m), while Mason Mount (£7.5m), Kai Havertz (£7.8m) or Mitrovic could come in.

I’m happy to wait on Mitrovic to see him go through another game without picking up a fifth yellow card and see how the injury situation is developing. The only way I go for him this week is if there are pre-deadline leaks of a Darwin benching, which is improbable but you never know.

I’m not stressed about replacing Reece James (£5.8m) until I know the situation regarding Gameweeks 20/21, Doubles which we’ll likely only know after Gameweek 19. An Arsenal defender ready to step in is never a bad option to have, even with the slightly trickier fixtures.

    Would you play Andreas or Botman over any of my starting 11? Think im set..

    Kepa
    Trippier - Cucu - White
    KDB - Rashford - Almiron - Martinelli
    Haaland (c) - Kane (v) - Darwin

    Ward - Andreas - Botman - Bueno

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

      Nah seems right that with main 11 mate.

      Not concerned of a KDB rest?
      Debating whether to do KDB > Salah for a hit

      1. Robe Wan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        That could backfire so badly

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

          It really could! Bit could also pay off massively, rewlly is a 50:50 split

      2. Kodap
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        i'm not worried tbf, will take the risk

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Probably not but seems wrong benching both.

    3. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      you be set Kodap

    4. Mirror Man
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Botman > Cucurella.

    5. PompeyUpNorth!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      No

    6. Kodap
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      thanks so much chaps

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

    Start Martinelli or Andreas?

    1. Robe Wan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Mart

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Andreas

    3. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Im chasing rank and have gone Andreas

  3. bso
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Play Nketia or Andreas?

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Nketiah

    2. Keventry City
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 17 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      If you have an Arsenal midfielder then play Andreas. If you have Mitro then play Nketah. If you have both then you need to decide if Mitro is gonna play or not. If you think he won't then play Andreas as he will be on pens. Otherwise Nketah just edges it.

    White, Trippier, Cancelo

      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years

      I am leaning to transfering to Salah, so I'd now suggest that for you to.
