    Have 4 FTs and 3 Liverpool already. Thinking:

    Allison > Pickford
    Greaves > Mykolenko

    Leaves £1.5m exactly for Slot AM.

      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.

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

          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.

          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.

      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

      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.

      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

      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).

    Salah, Palmer, Mbeumo, Rogers

    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.

        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.

      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

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

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

    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?

      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.

      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

    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
