    Would u use 1 FT to get Pickford
    Instead of FAB and play him benching Sles ?
    Yaaaaay
    Nope Save FT paly Sles

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Yes, but I would rather use AM possibly

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 12 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Yes I am using it too

        1. RICICLE
          • 3 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          Who you using it on buddy? I think I’m using it on Moyes for 24 at least

          1. OptimusBlack

            Slot

        It doesn’t cost a ft to use the chip

    Sorry late to the party... Who will double in 25?

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Most likely Liverpool and Villa.
      If not then Spurs and Fulham.

      Slight chance Chelsea and Arsenal as well

    2. Junks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Thanks both.

    Have 4 FTs and 3 Liverpool already. Thinking:

    Allison > Pickford
    Greaves > Mykolenko

    Leaves £1.5m exactly for Slot AM.

    Thoughts?

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Think I would probably just play Greaves instead honestly

      The rest seems good. Considering the same myself

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Yaaaay

  4. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    I think Liverpool will draw or potentially lose one of Bournemouth, Everton and Villa away

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Me too

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      For AM Slot, a draw and a win in the first double would mean around 14 points, with 3 games still to be played. That’s pretty good.

      1. Qaiss
        • 10 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        14 points is high, as they’re away games and tough to keep clean sheets

        1. Sir Michael Taker
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          14 is probably not unrealistic. A win is minimum 8 points. It would be 9 for 1-0 as they reward clean sheets higher than goals initially. A draw is minimum 4 points. So that is 12 at the very worst for a win and draw.

      2. Zladan
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        You don’t think Salah gets 14 points in DGW24?

        1. Sir Michael Taker
          • 11 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          Personally I think the likelihood of Liverpool taking 4 pooints from that double is much higher than Salah scoring 14 points yes. We're going from dealing in player specific outcomes (goals, assists, bonus) to a team specific outcome where you don't care who scores or how many. The team outcome will nearly always be more likely to come off.

  5. Silecro

    1 year, 1 month ago

    Get
    A)Mbeumo now for -4
    or
    B)play Gordon and get Mbeumo free next week?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Bobkat
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      B

    3. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      A. You’re gonna want that extra free transfer next week trust me

  6. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Only just found out that DGW25 is confirmed. I was set on playing TC Salah and already have 3 pool. I haven't given it any thought, but what about playing TC24 then Assman in 25, 26, and 27? Any logic to that?

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Not terrible, but a bit underwhelming perhaps. Would at least make you lore flexable towards the end of the season

    2. King Prawn
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I’m in the same boat, I don’t think you need to play the am in 25, there’s more upside playing it at the end of the season. It gives a massive advantage though to people that had planned to play it this week. I’m leaning in sticking to the plan, but holding the tc is also worth considering, we still don’t know who’s doubling in 25 yet. Not great from the fpl to announce this so late

    3. Sir Michael Taker
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      If you're planning TC then AM in 25, assuming its on Moyes initially as you're tripled up then main consideration is the 24 score without any captaincy for Salah as everyone has captain on him vs Moyes score in 24. Obvious other factors too but that is the main scoring aspect.

    4. Casual Player
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Heaps of you have 3 Liverpool already

      but everyone is blinded pivoting from TC to AM for this GW, you know, the GW which hasn’t changed.

      Because 5 is bigger than 4. Even though 4 was bigger than 3.

      I think using AM/BB/FH in GW25 are all in play tbh

    5. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      This is the play for me too I think.

      I don’t see why AM 24-26 is any better than TC24 AM 25-27.

      I am hopeful for better double upside fixtures in GW25 than LFC (so Spurs win is huge).

  7. OffsidePenalty
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Is TC dgw24 and AM dgw25 a strategy someone will go for, or is it a total waste of chips not to use AM from dgw24?

    1. Bobkat
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Could work but I think it’s AM gw24 so you get 5 games out of the chip

      1. Zladan
        • 8 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        But you get the extra fixture in the form of a TC.

        1. OffsidePenalty
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          1 year, 1 month ago

          Yes. And in worst case it gives you a extra gameweek to consider using AM or save for later.

    2. have you seen cyan
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      wow same question and time lol. I guess its a waste of AssMan to play it in 24.

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        waste of tc

      2. OffsidePenalty
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        haha I see lol! good someone else is questioning the same.
        For me this might be the way since I got 3x LIV, 0ft and 0itb..

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I am 50/50 on that.

    4. Conners
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Not a waste at all imho.

      If you have 3x Liverpool it might be the best option.

      1. OffsidePenalty
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Yes thats my problem in this case. I have 3x LIV and 0ft and 0itb to pop AM this round.

  8. Ian Davis
    • 16 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Diaz or Gakpo?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Gakpo

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Gakpo

    3. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      This question is a throwback

  9. To Mee To You
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Does it cost a transfer or a -4 the first time you play the AM chip?

    1. djman102
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      No, but if you change your AM, even before the deadline, it costs a transfer (or a -4).

    2. Bucket Man
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      No. Only a transfer if you change the manager from the 2nd or 3rd GW.

    3. Men in green tights
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Free , just the value of the manager

      1. To Mee To You
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Thankyou everybody!

  10. Bucket Man
    • 7 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Now thinking save TC and AM. Is it mad. My rank is in the gutter anyway.

    Pickford
    TAA, Munoz, Murillo
    Salah, Palmer, Mbeumo, Rogers
    Isak, Wood, Gakpo
    Elanga, Kerkez, Greaves

    If Liverpool and Villa Double GW then I will triple captain Salah GW25 and AM later on. Possibly Isak to Watkins

    If Spurs and Fulham double I may use AM and TC later in the season and have 1FT

    If Arsenal and Chelsea double as well may need to FH as only have Palmer there.

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I think you need to use one

      Or the other

      1. Bucket Man
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Thanks. Mind is frazzled haha

    2. djman102
      • 16 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Much more succinctly put, but that is exactly what I'm doing:

      1. Bucket Man
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Well put. I’m just not sure on Moyes assistant manager and wasting a transfer to change him. When I may want a Watkins or someone. And Salah next week looks even better if it happens, if not I think the assistant manager is better next week and seen posts suggesting we could have a Haaland or Isak DGW if need be for the TC. There could be other DGWs for AM too.

    3. HelmutCool
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Arsenal chelsea double would be the painfull one. Got just Palmer aswell and would have to tear the team apart without using FH.

      1. Bucket Man
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        I’ve just sold Gabriel last night for TAA as well. Great timing. Admittedly I can’t see Arsenal winning 3-0 at Newcastle but you never know.

  11. parkerdip
    • 12 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Pickford,
    TAA, Robinson Hall
    Rogers, Salah, palmer, Gordon
    Wood, isak, gakpo

    Subs, fabianski, Amad milenkovic, faes

    I have already used triple captain and no idea about whether to use assistant manager on Moyes as have 3 Liverpool. But what about playing bench boost as apart from fabianski they look decent fixtures. Thinking of swapped faes for mykolenko for another double.

  12. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    I've cancelled TC24 on Salah.

    O FT, £0.7m itb.

    Would you rather:

    A TC25 on Salah Wolves H and potentially Villa away

    B AM on Moyes dgw24

    Then a hit to another manager in gw25?

    1. Bobkat
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      B as A may not happen and might as well get 5 games out of the AM chip

    2. Men in green tights
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I'm looking at B just weighing up the chances that pool may lose second leg or rest/injured players in such a long dgw for the TC could be a safer bet going AM

    3. Casual Player
      • 5 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      If you weren’t doing B already, what’s the point now

  13. WFTS
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 1 Year
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Need to bench either Gabriel, Hall, or Robinson to play 3 at the back with Trent for the double. Who would you bench and why?

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I think most people agree that Robinson is last in that order this week. Mostly because he’d unlikely to keep a clean sheet and play away

    2. FPL Alaska
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Bench Robinson

  14. Bene_the_horse

    Hi all,

    Looking to move one of the below to Ndyaye to free up some funds for assistant manager chip. Who should I go with loosing?

    A. Wood
    B. Mateta

    Thanks

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Mateta

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Eze injured probably impacts Mateta and likely no fixture in 29 (assuming Newcastle beat Arsenal in EFL Cup)

  15. Karan_G14
    • 9 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Henderson
    TAA Gabriel Timber
    Salah Palmer Mbuemo Gordon Dango
    Isak Wood

    (Fabiansi Pedro Dunk Greaves)
    2 FTs & 0.9m

    To afford Slot need to make one of the following:

    A) Pedro > 4.5m fwd
    B) Gordon > Rogers

    Appreciate your thoughts!

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Let’s hope Wissa doesn’t go crazy now lol

      B for me

    Would you sell an arsenal defender.for Myko? Arsenal still have the chance of a dgw so reluctant to sell...cheers

    1. Tonyawesome69

      No

      Nope

        I have timber and gabriel, sorry, should have said

  17. have you seen cyan
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Godsake, I'm gonna have to get Moyes or kick VVD out of my team for a -4 if I want AssMan this week.

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Not worth it for a -4

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 6 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        Yea I agree. Has to be Moyes and hope for the best.

    2. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Wouldn’t the hits just be damage limitation by playing the AM chip though?
      Surely the hits can be covered. I’ve taken a -8 and will be going AM on Moyes

  18. Ronnies
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Best option?

    A) Moyes AM
    B) Gakpo to Ndiaye (-4) and Slot AM

    Currently own TAA, Salah, Gakpo and Pickford.

    Cheers

    1. james 101
      • 14 Years

      I dropped Diaz to go Slot

      No regrets

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      A. B is not worth a hit imo. I expect Gakpo to do well

  19. james 101
    • 14 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    ​

    Start:

    A. Kluivert (LIV H)

    B. Gibbs-White (BHA H)

    Basically form vs fixture.

    What do you think?

    JPed to Ndiaye?? Probs gonna TC Salah

    1. Tonyawesome69

      No

    2. Odikostar

      Enzo to Rogers imo

  21. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Was set on TC Salah before today but have just enough cash ITB to downgrade Allison > Pickford to enable AM Slot for a -4. Should I go for it?

    Allison
    Gabriel - TAA - Milenkovic
    Salah - Palmer - Gordon - Amad
    Isak - Wood - Wissa

    Dubravka - Munoz - Sarr - O'Shea

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      I might do the same for free myself, but not sure it’s worth a hit.

      Alisson is written with double S instead of L btw, weirdly enough

  22. theshazly
    • 2 Years

    Need help here please

    Slot
    Raya ( Fab )
    Virgil Robinson Aina ( Kerkez / VDB )
    Salah Rogers Palmer Mbuemo ( Sarr )
    Delap Isak Wood

    1 FT / 1.2 ITB

    Do :

    A ) Delap > Ndayei
    B ) Raya > Pickford
    C ) Roll and have 2 FT for the break period to transfer a player and Slot if needed ? Delap is playing Southampton (H)

  23. tbos83

    Surely there's more upside to Moyes? If he even gets a draw v Liv he will haul

    1. Nightcrawler
      • 6 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Yes also more downside. Worth the risk imo though I'm not doing it

    2. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      More upside and more risk.

      With the form they’re in it feels very unlikely to me that they get nothing out of two homegames at least. I think chances are good for at least a win against Leicester or a draw against Liverpool, which alone would be at least 8 points, before a possible 3 more fixtures if you switch manager

    3. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Absolutely

  24. Nightcrawler
    • 6 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Was all set on Salah TC 25 but now worried The wolves game might be where he is rested

    Liv would have

    eve
    WOL
    Avl
    City
    UCL(a)

    All inside 2 weeks

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      He's a machine

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      He could also get injured in the long stretch between Bournemouth and Everton. I think maybe we overthink too much ...

    3. Tonyawesome69
      • 7 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Rested against PSV and likely a rest against Plymouth before Everton fixture. You've also missed Newcastle (H) and FAC R5 before UCL

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 7 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        He doesn't need another rest after Everton game..

  25. The-Red-1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    1 year, 1 month ago

    Seen lots of people thinking of getting Moyes for AM (including me)

    Realistically they could conceivably lose both this week to nil, and you get 0, is that right?

    1. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Yup

    2. Salarrivederci
      • 9 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Realistically being the key word here! 😉

    3. Zladan
      • 8 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      It’s the better play imo. I would rather TC Salah and then AM someone next week rather than AM Moyes or slot this week.

    4. Pornchef
      • 2 Years
      1 year, 1 month ago

      Everton just going to give up all of a sudden this double game week? They'll be gunning for the Liverpool game and coming from good form with back to back wins still with the new manager bounce in two home games one against a leaky promoted side and one against their biggest rival

      1. RICICLE
        • 3 Years
        1 year, 1 month ago

        This, they’re gonna be well up for it. Just people putting bias narrative round things

    Still feel the play is:
    TC24
    AM25-27

    We don’t know who the doubles will be in GW25.
    People taking hits to get doublers in and out.
    People picking Slot with no bonus potential.
    There’s likely to be one fewer DGW after GW26 now so not like one approach gets more DGW value.

      Agreed, the unknown of GW25 and beyond is stopping me playing AM now and being locked in. Risk v Reward though...

      Everyone has gone mad

      I get Slot if you hadn’t got the 3rd Liverpool yet, because 4 high floor fixtures is good.

      But people suddenly want Moyes because there’s an extra game the following week lol
