With the next Fantasy Premier League (FPL) deadline almost upon us, we’re hearing from our panel of guest writers. Here, three-time top 500 finisher FPL General talks through his Gameweek 33 team.

FPL General reveals his first draft for 2024/25 1

Gameweek 32 Review

General Gameweek 33

The Bench Boost didn’t exactly go to plan but the Gameweek was a good one with a green arrow from 35k to 27k. The late charge towards the top 10k has commenced! 

Two free transfers were used to replace the injured duo Gabriel Magalhaes (£6.2m) and Justin Kluivert (£6.0m) with William Saliba (£6.5m) and Savinho (£6.2m) to patch up the Bench Boost. The Savinho decision wasn’t the best idea in hindsight and I’ve now got a headache with him going into Double Gameweek 33. Saliba was disappointing too but he was brought in more with the Arsenal double in mind. This will be his week! Daniel Munoz (£5.3m) somehow managing to score negative points in a Double Gameweek will go down in FPL folklore. 

At 27k, the troops are 28 points from the top 10k. With the Free Hit set for deployment in Gameweek 34, it’s certainly possible to get there. I’ll be very happy with another top 50k finish, however; anything more would be a bonus.

      I considered it but had 3x City and went for Arteta. I think it's quite 50/50 between Arteta and Pep

      I think Isak could easily return and RAN against a heavily rotated Man Utd team focusing on Europe could be good. Spurs not exactly pulling up trees either although double Forest isn't ideal. Plus unless we don't know something, we think they all play.
      Having a full playing 15 in GW38 is a risk, I'd go now

      You best TC choices are:
      1) This week - Marmoush/Saka/Salah
      2) GW36 might be a double
      3) If not DGW36, Marmoush still has Sou in 36 could be worse and who knows, Haaland might be back. Southampton owe him a few goals.....
      4) You could use it GW38?

      Maybe play it now?

    What would you do about a 3rd City?

    A. Stick with Savinho
    B. Savinho to a Villa mid and get Dias at the back
    C. Savinho to KDB (likely means Kwior over Saliba to afford it)

    If it makes a difference, I wouldn't likely be around for City team leaks ahead of the deadline
