    When is best time to play the AM chip - what's the latest thinking?

    I saw some stat that it is best to stick it on the teams at the top of the league.

    1. Nightcrawler

      If arsenal don't get a DGW in 25 think I'm going to wait for the final 3 weeks when some teams are on the beach while the ones lower down could get desperate (table bonus) or at team fighting for league or ucl

      1. Nightcrawler
        • 5 Years

        Definitely not using it on slot this week. Feels like a waste when u have to go without a pool player

      2. Jafalad

        Yes that’s a time to make hay isn’t it?

      For the high risk, high reward game targeting table bonus Wolves look good in the end of the season. They're looking better with Pereira, their fixtures are with teams expectedly at least 5 positions above in the table and expectedly on the beach (BHA, cry, BRE).

    3. CONNERS

      I want mine out of the way before the later doubles.

      I might just risk it on Emery if Villa double in 25, or I'll play it in three standard gameweeks with good fixtures.
      (Brentford in 26, switching to Maresca for 27/28 perhaps).

      This week was a good time as it will cover 5 games in 3 game weeks during a period you won’t want to use another chip (except TC maybe).

      Using it later could block a better use of chips or contain less game weeks.

      Personally I think slot was still a great shout this week. Gakpo 5 Trent 6 slot 10 so far. Time will tell of course. I went Moyes but unlikely he gets much against pool now. Gw25 still a great time to play it especially if you trip capt this round. That was the way to go in hindsight

        Hindsight of one GW? And ignoring that Pereira & Silva were by far the top scorers...?

        1. Zimo
          • 6 Years
          2 days, 20 hours ago

          Pereira and Silva aren't safe choices though sadly

        2. Q
          • 12 Years

          Not ignoring, there will always be outliers. Pereira and silva weren’t really in the conversation. Same could be said for wood and his hatrick. Salah trip cap currently stands you at 16points above base with Everton to go. The main alts were slot am 10 and Moyes am 12. Both decent but personally I would be happier going in to this next game with salah trip than the other options. As I said though time will tell.

            Citing them mainly just as an example of the potential if you get the bonus picks right. I don't like to do the smug old self-quoting, look at my prediction come true thing, but I did single out Pereira on Saturday morning

              And it was in reply to a post (by FPL Blow In? Might have messed up his name) suggesting Silva

    I have Levi Colwill since gw6...

      Why?

      1. Eze Really?
        • 10 Years
        2 days, 22 hours ago

        There are many who kept him. He was a favorite of content creators.

      2. The Knights Template

        He mistook him for noted anthropologist Levi-Strauss.

    3. mookie

      7 of the top 20 all time best managers own him.
      42 of the 64 in Analytics Elite 64 league own him.

      Basically managers that play FPL as a statistics game played with football liked him.

      1. Odikostar
        • 10 Years

        As a chelsea fan, I think that is WILD

        1. mookie
          • 11 Years
          2 days, 20 hours ago

          "Liked him" as in when they got him. Now he's a nailed defender that likely(~85%) won't blank in GW29.

        2. mookie
          • 11 Years
          2 days, 20 hours ago

          The managers in the Analytics Elite 64 league don't own a single Forest player.
          They play a different game. Their game is a statistics game played with football. The average Joe plays a football game with statistics.
          Similar to poker, the best players see it as a money game played with cards, whereas most see it as a card game played with money.

            *For the average Joe it's a football game played statistics.

            that's a great way of putting it

        I think the issue with Colwill is solvers using long term/ last season data and not quick enough to adapt to new data/ new manager this season.

          • 11 Years

          Maybe, I don't know. I recall there was a period where I was seriously considering Gusto. Most likely it was the run of good fixtures when people got Jackson. That run was better for Chelsea defenders than it was for attackers.

          Ben Crellin had him for 20 GWs and played him 8 times.

          I think this guy is #1 in the live hall of fame. He had him for 11 GWs and played him 7 times.

          I think that's generally the case with nailed CBs, look at Konsa/Dunk/Andersen ownership for analytics type managers.

          Exactly. Personally I feel like you have to throw in a bit of eye-test assessment to beat these robots

    4. Nightcrawler

      2 days, 20 hours ago

      Get rid asap even if he has a dgw. Chelsea can't really defend and he has no attacking threat.

      Had to use a transfer on a playing keeper selling Sanchez for Allison a few weeks back. That's how bad Chelsea are

    5. FFS ManU
      • 2 Years
      2 days, 20 hours ago

      I've had him for many weeks as well. Originally it was because Chelsea had a good run of fixtures and so I was hoping for some points from him but now it's just as a cheap sub who starts.

    Arne Slot on Alexander-Arnold - “Yes he is going to miss the game tomorrow and we have to see if he’s able to play on Sunday but what we do know is he’s not available for tomorrow… you saw that he left the pitch with a bit of a pain in his leg so that’s why he misses the game tomorrow but he’s already on the pitch, not with the team, but with the rehab coach so let’s see how long it’s going to take but he will not be available for tomorrow.”

      Seems very obvious that he'll be back for the derby.

      Which is negative for:
      - non-owners (me)
      - non-Ndiaye owners (me) cuz he's just not a good defender
      - Slot owners (me) cuz he's just not a good defender

        Looked pretty obvious from the Bournemouth game if you drop high crosses from your right hand side into the far post area and Trent is defending them, don't bother challenging him just focus on the second ball which will drop for you in penalty area. He made the same error at least twice with headed clearances under no pressure which led to fairly big Bournemouth chances.

          It's a classic. Remember Brentford exploited that ruthlessly a couple seasons ago and everyone seemed to think Trent was finished

  10. Shark Team

    I doubled up on Brentford boys last gw but I’m not optimistic,
    west ham are strong defensively
    after that it’s Leicester though

    1. The Knights Template

      Optimists live longer.

    2. WVA

      I doubled up on them last season, Wissa and Mbeumo somehow managed no goal involvement for the next 10 game weeks! (Wasn’t quite that many).

    3. Odikostar
      • 10 Years
      2 days, 19 hours ago

      Think Cunha is a better option for those who don't own wissa. Looking to get in him and Wood before 29 myself

      I'm not quite sold on West Ham being "strong defensively" just yet - think they need to show a bit more than these results against a UCL-hungover Villa & woefully out-of-form Chelsea before I change my mind about them

    Anyone have an AssMan strategy in mind?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 6 Years
      2 days, 19 hours ago

      Aim to include a DGW within the 3GWs

      AM25-27, 31-33, 36-38

    2. Warby84

      I played it on Moyes and hopefully if Arsenal go through I’ll move to Arteta. I have 1m exactly itb
