From price changes to thinking long term, community writer LockroomPL gives Fantasy managers some tips for surviving this interminable international break…

The first three Gameweeks are complete, and managers everywhere are either frustrated that their run of green arrows has stalled, or grateful for a short pause in the action.

The first half of the campaign can be stop-start because of the international breaks. There are three of them remaining in 2025: between Gameweeks 3 and 4, between Gameweek 7 and 8, and between Gameweek 11 and 12.

Each break lasts two weeks, and a lot can change in that time. Players travel long distances, injuries occur, and form can swing quickly. With that in mind, here are my three top tips for navigating international breaks in FPL.

1. Save your transfers as long as possible

The longer you wait, the more information you have to make the right decision. During international breaks:

Players are often involved in multiple matches across the world
Injuries are common
Tactical changes or new managers can affect player roles

Once you confirm a transfer, there is no going back. Making a move too early can leave you stuck with an injured or out-of-favour player. Delaying your transfers gives you flexibility and allows you to react to the latest news.

2. Monitor price change predictions

Player prices fluctuate when they receive a large number of transfers in or out, and these changes can make a big difference over the season. A £0.1m rise or fall may not sound significant, but saving £0.2m here and there can eventually decide whether you can afford the premium player you want later on.

For example, in my own team I am monitoring the prices of Maxence Lacroix (£5.0m) and Daniel Muñoz (£5.5m) from Crystal Palace. Both defenders have strong upcoming fixtures and are attracting transfers. Meanwhile, Murillo (£5.5m) of Nottingham Forest faces Arsenal next and does not fit my long-term plans, meaning his price is likely to drop.

By checking price prediction sites daily, I can hold off my transfer for as long as possible in case of injuries, while still moving before the price swings. This approach could save me £0.2m, which may not seem like much now but could prove valuable later in the season.

3. Have a long-term strategy

International breaks provide the perfect opportunity to take a step back and plan ahead. Looking at fixture runs, player value, and potential future transfers can give you a clear roadmap.

Using my team as an example, I am considering whether to save £0.5m by choosing Lacroix over Muñoz. That extra money could be crucial in Gameweek 7, when I want to upgrade a defender to Gabriel Magalhães (£6.1m) ahead of Arsenal’s strong fixture run.

Having a long-term plan does not mean committing to rigid moves, but it helps prevent short-term decisions from blocking future opportunities. Think ahead, and your present-day moves will work harder for you.

Conclusion

International breaks can be frustrating for FPL managers, but they also offer a chance to reset and plan ahead. There is an opportunity to return from the international break in a strong and prepared position allowing you to push for green arrows.
