        Yes. It is the highest upside chip in the game.

          If your rival will get +50 in a GW one day, then probably yeah.

                I mixed up tho. You're gonna get 50 pts spreading over 3 GW's in most of cases. Tho technically you may get 50 in one week if the team wins 30-0.

              it ruined the season, but since we already committed to playing, I guess we have to care?

                  Adding stuff into the game mid-season is a bad idea

                  They did it a few seasons ago adding a free-hit in the middle of the season and this is the same

                  It should have been in at the beginning

                      I guess the justification would be that the underdog bonus doesn't really work from the beginning. But I can easily imagine they just weren't ready

                    What could you possibly do pre season to prepare?

                    It’s a chip so likely used in the 2nd half of the season to navigate doubles and blanks anyway

                    If it was at the beginning, everyone would have just chosen someone like Pep, Slot, Ange Ten Hag because they start the season mid-table or lower. Think Pep would have got like 20 points from the first GW alone.

                Why it ruined season , you could gain +40pts on a rival or be in top 100k in no a day

                Less chance of that just with a normal GW

              I'm not a fan of it at all and hope its binned next season, that being said its in the game and can possibly generate a big swing in points so I'll reluctantly be trying to use it as best as I can.

                      Appreciate the way you put this nicely unlike the clown that got butt hurt above

                      I think I’ve just fallen out of love with football now, mainly because on the offsides and VAR, and mainly because of the play style.

                      Most teams play out the back now and most are not equipped to do so

                      This leads to teams giving silly goals up, essentially free goals to their opponents

                      It doesn’t seem like a competitive game when one team is using an inferior play style for them

                      Plus, passing sideways at the halfway line is dead boring

                    Probably. Even aside from that & beach slumps, it should offer the widest selection of doubles to choose from. You can already (I think?) anticipate some of the possibilities by adding GW33 fixtures to 36. Wolves v mun BHA. The promoted sides might be a bit of a stretch though with Ipswich v ARS BRE (33), Leicester v LIV nfo, Southampton v MCI whu

                      This

                      Plus the fact that teams and managers MUST win for the title/CL/relegation and they’ll play mid table teams with nothing to play for

                      Plus using it at the end of the season means you don’t have to worry about using transfers to re-utilise the money in the bank or regain a triple up

                      Even the Ipswich fixtures, if they MUST win to avoid the drop, they could pull a few results out the bag and the AM chip would net a huge score

                    Possibly but might bench boost in gw36 instead.

                    I'm considering using my bench boost super early, like gw24, and get it "out of the way". I have 2FTs I am going to roll over this week and have haaland in my team, so can use the transfers plus spare cash to build a good 15 player squad, then focus transfers thereafter on the first 11.

                    It always feels like a waste of cash to have a good bench for a very late bench boost.

                    99% certain, probably Wolves
                    But my main mini league rival blew his TC on Haaland early, so I'm assuming hes going to use it on Slot 24-26 with the double GW and I'm TC on Salah. Will reassess when that dust settles

                      I will TC 24, then AM as above. Pep might just be someone else if I don’t fancy their chances or if they’re within 5 places.

                      Lots focusing on hopeful wins against teams 5+ places above, but there is value in going for banker wins where many goals are scored.

                          Is it 25 now?

                          Then that’s when I’ll do it. Only difference between 24 v 25 is if I bother with any more Everton or not. 25 isn’t as appealing, so just Pickford will do for me. Although JPedro to Ndiaye has legs if JP is out.

                    Urgh, "building up" to a bench boost team. I've done that every year for about a decade and ignored decent players for weeks on end because they don't have a double gameweek.

                      This year is different because you can accumulate 5 FTs and use them all the week before the BB

                      Then WC out of it after that

                      Therefore, you get the decent players, and get a strong BB

                        Good point, although this will probably therefore entail ignoring decent players for weeks on end whilst I build up FTs!

                          Good point, although I posted this a few days ago

                          "In FPL, activity does not correlate with achievement. Indeed, frenetic behaviour is often counterproductive."

                          I always seem to do much better when I don't make transfers

                      Do you see any other pitfalls with this strategy?

                      Also, what is your BB strategy?

                        It's not a bad strategy but it's not the ONLY one. If you fix into a strategy like this now you may miss better opportunities to use the assistant manager chip.

                        I currently have 2FTs to roll over so I may be in a good position to, say, play the assistant manager chip on Moyes in gw24, if Everton has a double gameweek. I can afford the free transfer and I will be selling haaland so will have cash to splash on 2x Liverpool players and one extra Everton player - whoever comes to the fore in moyes' first few gameweeks.

                        I could instead bench boost in gw24 (spread my haaland cash across 3 cheapest players) and then use FTs over forthcoming weeks to focus funds on starting 11, instead of wasting cash on the bank for the latter part of the season.

                          True, have to adapt to what’s in front of you

                          I guess I could play the AM earlier and the overall strategy stays in tact

                          Surprised you still have Haaland

                          Did you move to him recently or did you hold all this time?

                            I actually didn't have him at all and saved my wildcard til gw18, brought him in then. That's allowed me to save FTs

                    If Newcastle make it to the FAC semi-final and Ipswich don't get relegated till the last GW, then McKenna (0.5) is a sweet pie in 36-38, I think. BRE(h), NEW(a), LEI(a), WHU(h).

                      I have read all the info regarding this chip but it confuses me.

                      We pick 1 assistant manager and for three gws they provide points based on the results of their team? Can we transfer the manager within those 3 gws using free transfers/hits?

                      Can someone who knows all the ins and outs offer a basic overview of the T&Cs

                        Yes you can change the manager during the 3 weeks?

                        And yes the results contribute to points scored

                      Then he was put on a travel ban and had to move and play in Iceland

                      In 2023, the police said no further action will be taken and charges were dropped

                      Siggy's lawyer said they won't sue

                      None of this makes sense, they ruined his career and tarnished his name, but they won't seek legal retribution?

                              It's a tough position for a victim, but cannot believe a real victim would refuse to co-operate with authorities to bring justice

                              He's innocent, you cannot say "police are inept" just because the verdict doesn't match what you wanted

                      Amorim seems the best choice, given his price & United's position in the league table.

                        I actually kind of agree with this. If United can get their act together (big if, IMHO), the bonus could be mouth watering.

                      Can tell FPL Towers really don’t understand their userbase with this AM chip, considering a large number who play every year still haven’t worked out how the Free Hit chip works.

                          Well it is if the game becomes too complicated and turns off the casuals, which make up a massive proportion of their audience.

                            Oh no! Not the casuals

                            In all seriousness, yes as a business they need casuals

                            However, people will learn, people have learned a lot more complex games like Fortnite

                            I think they are testing managers in FPL, and if they can pull it off, make it a season-long thing

                      Think I'll bench Wood again this week, and swap Bruno in for Diaz for a hit, and maybe even Captain him.

                      Henderson
                      TAA, Hall, Muñoz
                      Salah, Palmer, Bruno, Mbeumo, Gordon
                      Isak, Raul

                      Sels, Wood, Robinson, Castagne

                      Gonna bench boost GW22.

                          All players have good fixtures next GW, except Mbeumo against Liverpool. And I will feel happy to be done with that chip.. sort of regret not using it GW1 which was my initial plan.

                      A couple of thoughts on assman/strategy. The leagues very tight, lots to play for. If that continues deep into the second half of the season it creates opportunity in that teams 5 places apart or whatever the bonus is might not be that far apart in reality, 'upsets' more likely. But it creates problems in planning too as one win shoots a team up several places. It also would mean this much heralded target teams on the beach may not materialise or if it does it'll be a very small set of teams very late on.

                      I'm interested to see which way the CC's and articles on places like this go with it. There's a place for expected this and that in the main part of the game but ultimately this 3 or 4 gw chip is gambling in the purest form. Do I think Team X can beat Team Y. Simple as that.

                      After getting very frustrated recently with real managers not advising about team selection or injuries, this new chip really puts the kibosh on the game fir me. It is an awful idea to bring in and I for one are very unhappy about it and will certainly not be playing at all next season.
