      Of the people who entered so far, any idea roughly how many have been eliminated?

        1. Sheffield Wednesday
          • 5 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Thanks. Roughly one out of every six entrants remain.

          Three years ago I made it to the second to the last cut down. KDB scored four against Wolves to end my run. Was a lot of fun. Still alive this year.

  3. Norco
    • 11 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    Best way to Gakpo (-4)?

    1. Wood > Gakpo 0.0 ITB
    2. Mateta > Gakpo + 0.5 ITB

    1. Fitzy.
      • 14 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      I'd go Wood. Palace have much better fixtures coming up.

      1. Norco
        • 11 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Rules me out of Sarr > Klu, but could always go Sarr > Dango next week.

  4. simong1
    • 7 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    Best option of the below?

    A) VVD > TAA

    B) Raya > Pickford

    C) N. Williams > Myolenko

    D) Save FT

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 11 Years

      B

    2. Bushwhacker

      A

  5. SpaceCadet

    UCL fantasy. Vvd Salah > gvardiol Foden?

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 6 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Solid

    2. St Pauli Walnuts
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      City probably concede, I'd go for attacking Inter or Leverkusen defender, similar upside and more chance of CS.

      Pickford rise I could have done without today.

    5. JohnnyCroat

      10 months, 10 days ago

      Timed that well at least. Shipped the Seagull for the Toffee yesterday. Rewarded.

  7. Pep Roulette

    Using AM chip is really tempting me

    AM Moyes in DGW24 - New manager bounce. Can beat Leicester comfortably. Merseyside Derby could be cagey, Everton can get a draw at least.

    Switching in Iraola for GW25 & GW26 with SOU & WOL. Winnable games, clean sheet potential plus could be goals galore for Bournemouth.

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Same, unfortunately don’t have the funds to get in Moyes without a hit.

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        First transfer/selection DOES NOT cost a free transfer. If you want to change managers while the chip is active, then it WILL cost a free transfer.

        1. SpaceCadet
          • 11 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Have 0.2m itb. Moyes is 0.5m. Need to generate the funds by downgrading somewhere

      2. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        a hit is Fine

    2. G-Whizz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 8 Years

      Think I'll save mine for now and go for some table bonus later...

    3. Bushwhacker
      • 6 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Tempted but I’d have to stay with a 0.5 all three weeks

  9. SpaceCadet
    • 11 Years

    Any of these moves worth a hit this gw?

    A. Robinson > collins
    B. Wood > wissa

    1. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 5 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      The Colin-Robinson hit will drain energy from your result.

  10. andre_c
    • 7 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    Looking to make these 5 moves over the next 2 weeks. Have 5FT so could make them all this week. Leaves 0.1ITB so a couple of price rises and drops could affect the moves.
    Robinson, Milenkovic, Gordon, Sarr, Mateta -> Mykolenko, Huijsen (can't afford Kerkez), Mbeumo, Kluivert/Semenyo, Gakpo.
    Don't mind removing those players, had Gordon, Sarr, Mateta since GW19 and have appreciated their returns but I think it's time to move on.
    Team is:

    Pickford - Valdimarsson
    TAA - Gabriel - Munoz - Robinson - Milenkovic
    Salah - Palmer - Gordon - Sarr - Rogers
    Isak - Mateta - Joao Pedro

    5FT - 0.0ITB

    Thoughts?

    1. Bushwhacker
      • 6 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Gordon to Mbeumo this week may be worth it assuming no Spurs defenders return. Going to Gakpo makes sense but less so with Mateta. Honestly its a good team that doesn’t need any tinkering.

    Wissa isnt going anywhere is here?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years

      Not in this window atleast

      1. JT11fc
        • 7 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Hold Cunha or go Wissa you think?

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Go Wissa (presuming Mateta is not possible)

          1. JT11fc
            • 7 Years
            10 months, 10 days ago

            Thanks, 0.1 off sadly

  12. SpaceCadet

    Anything worth a hit in this ucl team or save? 2.3m itb.

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Looks gtg

  13. RichRover
    • 13 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    Is Darwin too punty over Gakpo?

    1. RichRover
      • 13 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Or just go double defence with Van Dijk and Trent?

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Yep, likely to get 2 sub appearances.

    3. kringe
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Yes, but still kicking myself for buying Gakpo early thinking he likely would be rested in Europe like last time. Forgot that he would likely want to play against his old club PSV

  14. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    After much deliberation & insights from ffs buddy, Holmes. I found a way to get Pickford even though I already have Myko. Think I have to attack every DGW because of my rank.

    Hence, Fabianski —> Pickford done.

    Leaves me with Hendo + Pickford till gw 29 at least. They rotate well till then imo.

    Pickford

    Murillo, Trent, Myko

    Salah(TC), Palmer, Gordon, Díaz

    Vardy, Wood, Isak.

    Bench: Hendo, Murphy, Porro, Robinson.

    I rarely share my team, however, is it good to go or will you do something else with it?

    Thanks

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      tight between Murphy and Vardy.

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        That’s right! I benched Vardy last gw after 6 gws of doing jack sht in my team. Think Gordon + Isak should be enough imo.

        At least, I can celebrate when Vardy scores a pen even if Pickford + Myko are in the team too 😆

  15. HurriKane
    • 13 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    Crazy to pick Ait-Nouri over Mykolenko? Already got Pickford

    I wont be playing him much since other defs are TAA Gabriel Munoz and Kerkez

    Could be useful from gw28-31

    EVE sou WHU ips

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Might get dropped by then, save FT.

    2. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Not really but I prefer Myko with the DGW

  16. PartyTime
    • 4 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    18 UCL games tonight!!! Eventful night on the horizon. I’m looking forward to it with so many options. Picked Vinicius last
    round as opposed to Mbappe (content creators pick).

    At the moment, I’m currently thinking of going with Haaland & Kane over Lewy & Mbappe. I’m satisfied with my current rank of 2k but can definitely make it better.

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Will be interesting to see if Villa can make top 8 over Atalanta.

    2. SpaceCadet
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Will there be auto subs like in fpl since all the games start at the same time?

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Interesting.
        I don’t know…think auto subs should be active if you don’t make any changes to the team.

    3. SpaceCadet
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Got in Foden and Olise with the 2 fts. Foden c.

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Nice. I can’t stretch to Foden, so will take cheap little Gittens.

        1. PartyTime
          • 4 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          because I want Haaland.

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 11 Years
            10 months, 10 days ago

            I coudn't stretch to Haaland, so went Foden.

    Is there a way to find out how many TC chips are already active for next gw?

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      nope

    2. Sheffield Wednesday
      • 5 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Sometimes [even though they shouldn't] official FPL Scout will leak information like this in one of their articles. It's the sort of information that shouldn't be permitted release as we are getting a glimpse of stuff you can't see on others' accounts.

      1. bobicek92
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 1 Year
        10 months, 10 days ago

        exactly, I think I heard on the pod so I was thinking it is a public information

        1. Sheffield Wednesday
          • 5 Years
          10 months, 9 days ago

          et voilà https://www.premierleague.com/news/4231290

          "So far, more than 550,000 FPL managers have that chip active for Double Gameweek 24"...
          ..."More than 470,000 Fantasy managers have activated the Assistant Manager chip already"

          1. Sheffield Wednesday
            • 5 Years
            10 months, 9 days ago

            * "that chip" being TC

  18. cescpistols1
    • 10 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    What changes would you make for GW24? 1FT, 2.3 ITB.

    Thoughts on Raul -> Wood? Or Henderson -> Pickford?

    And then start Wood over Greaves?

    Henderson
    TAA Konate Hall Greaves
    Salah (c) Palmer Mbeumo Amad Rogers
    Isak

    Fabianski Raul S.Larsen Gabriel

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Change Greaves to Mykolenko instead. Henderson's fixtures are better than Pickford.

  19. The Mighty Hippo
    • 9 Years
    10 months, 10 days ago

    Start one

    A) Colwill - WHU (H)
    B) Munoz - MUN (A)
    C) Robinson - NEW(A)

    1. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      B

  20. Holmes

    Best UCL fixtures to target on Limitless? Will decide on players after lineups are out but need to know which fixtures to target first 😀

    PSV vs Liverpool
    Bayern vs Slovan
    Leverkusen vs Sparta
    Brest vs Madrid
    Villa vs Celtic
    Salzburg vs A. Madrid
    Stuttgart vs PSG

    Anything else? Any games to remove from the list?

    1. SpaceCadet
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      City v Brugge

      Can remove Liv cause of rotation.

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Thanks

        Limitless is going to be proper headache with so many premiums to pick from 😀

        1. SpaceCadet
          • 11 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Good headache to have!

        2. PartyTime
          • 4 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Used mine already but if I hadn’t, now seems like the best time.

          Good luck!

    2. PartyTime
      • 4 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      City & Bayern imo

      1. PartyTime
        • 4 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        * Madrid too. They will flog Brest tonight.

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Vini over Mbappe or both?

          1. PartyTime
            • 4 Years
            10 months, 10 days ago

            Vini is suspended. I’m selling for Kane. Mbappe should be enough unless you want to double up with Bellingham. Liverpool using their B side tonight frees up a lotta cash 😆

            1. Holmes
              • 12 Years
              10 months, 10 days ago

              Ah okay, cheers

    3. SpaceCadet
      • 11 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Is Lewa > Haaland or Mbappe worth a hit?

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Tough. Hit here basically means you are giving up on one goal and hoping for multiple attacking returns (presuming Lewandowski blanks).

        1. SpaceCadet
          • 11 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Yea guess not worth it.

    4. mookie
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Dortmund vs Shaktar is a good one as well.

      Would Bournemouth's form put you off Liverpool defence or assistant manager chip in the DGW?

      Bournemouth's

      1. Hairy Potter
        • 10 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Bournemouth at SJP is probably the best team performance I've seen this season. Easily the best team to play against Newcastle.

      Explain how the assistant manager chip works to a 5 year old.
      In fact just tell how to play it

      David Moyes for the double game week assistant manager chip?

      Should we double up on the Brentford and Bournemouth attack?

      Is it safe to sell Chris Wood for Gakpo?

      Is Raya to Pickford a trap? Maybe Pickford outscores him in the DGW (although Jamie Vardy could spoil that) and then Raya has two good fixtures for clean sheets in GW 25 and 26.

    Sorry for silly question but if the cup matches go to plan and the favourites go through which GWs would be the double GWs and what would the potential matches be? Trying to work out when to play TC and AM

    1. Holmes

      GW33 will be DGW with Liverpool facing lei + avl, Aston Villa facing LIV + NEW, Newcastle against CRY + avl and Palace against new + mcy

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        This is not final btw, they might reschedule games in GW36 but GW33 is looking likely.

      Too soon to even attempt to figure the FA Cup semi-finalists, but they would blank in 34.

      Newcastle v Liverpool Carabao Cup final would mean blanks for them plus Villa & Palace in 29, and doubles in 33

      DGW24 for Liverpool + Everton

      BGW29 for League Cup finalists + opponents

      DGW33 for League Cup finalists + opponents

      BGW34 for FA Cup Semifinalists + opponents

      DGW36 for FA Cup Semifinalists + opponents

        Not certain to be the above according to Crellin depends on who makes FA Cup semis and some other bits around europe but 34 could be bought forward to 33 and not back to 36 for some. But its a good rough guide

        1. dansmith1985
          • 3 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Thanks all. Think I might just play AM on Moyes then switch to Iraola

        2. Tommy Template
          • 11 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Basically as I understand it 37 is FA Cup Final but there is space for most to move their fixtures from 37 to midweek after FA Cup Final and stay in 37 (would otherwise cause a blank 37 for potentially 2 fixtures) but that space is not free if you make the europa league final and it would cause a reshuffle to make space for the 37 fixtures which would all have to come earlier as there's no time after to finish the season on time.

        Isn't the FA Cup final on the same weekend as GW37? Or will those games moved to midweek and stay in GW37?

        1. Tommy Template
          • 11 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Yes I think thats the plan but not if you make the europa final which is midweek in 37

          1. mookie
            • 12 Years
            10 months, 10 days ago

            CHE vs MUN and AVL vs TOT could blank in GW37 if MUN and/or TOT reach both finals.

            1. Tommy Template
              • 11 Years
              10 months, 10 days ago

              They'd have to make decisions in advance of knowing thhe finalists probably but nobody knows when. Its partly why Spurs could come to 25 if they make league cup final, to minimise the likelihood of jams down the line

              1. Tommy Template
                • 11 Years
                10 months, 10 days ago

                Also not the case they'd have to make both finals to force it, europa is the key bit really, their scheduled 37 league opponent could make FA Cup final

                1. mookie
                  • 12 Years
                  10 months, 10 days ago

                  Yeah, good point there. Kind of funny that Spurs are playing Villa in the next round of the FA Cup.

  23. JabbaWookiee

    Which of these three do I start?
    A) Robinson (new)
    B) Greaves (SOU)
    C) Kerkez (LIV)

    1. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 months, 10 days ago

      Fixture says Greaves

      1. JabbaWookiee
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 months, 10 days ago

        Just feels weird to start him over two players that could potentially get attacking returns, in an Ipswich side that has only kept two cleanies all season.

        1. Holmes
          • 12 Years
          10 months, 10 days ago

          Thats true. Robinson would be my choice if its between Kerkez and him.

    2. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years

      B

    3. bobicek92

      also on Greaves currently, but mostly because I don´t like playing my defenders against attackers

    There could be some injury turbulence tonight, for example this is a predicted Liverpool line up in Holland.

    Liverpool predicted lineup vs PSV (4-2-3-1): Kelleher; Bradley, Konate, Quansah, Tsimikas; Morton, Endo; Chiesa, Elliott, Diaz; Nunez.

    Based on him starting today in UCL, he will not feature this weekend. He'll only feature at Everton.
