With Gameweek 24 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) nearing, our contributors are starting to finalise their teams before Saturday’s deadline.

FPL General, who has three top 500 finishes to his name, is Wildcarding but will continue to plough on without Erling Haaland (£15.0m)!

Here, he outlines his plans for the week ahead.

General no Salah Haaland

Gameweek 23 Review

FPL General’s Gameweek 24 Wildcard reveal

Gameweek 23 ended up being a non-event for The Troops. After a great start to the weekend with Antoine Semenyo (£7.8m) being captain and Jarrod Bowen (£7.6m) going big, nothing else happened.

The arrow was a tiny green one, where the team sits at 2.1 million overall. So I pressed the Wildcard button on Saturday night. Wholesale changes are about to happen…

      Triple Wolves BB is a trap. I know they double, but it’s against the best team in the league. In addition, you could just start them that week if you were desperate to. BB better somewhere else, and I wouldn’t want to be lumped with such a wolves heavy bench because I tried to gain an extra fixture against Arsenal

    I'm aware Wirtz needs to go but don't have enough to upgrade to Bruno. Thinking of making 3 transfers for -8 this week (Dorgu one of them) and moving some money around to get him.

    Arsenal were planning to fly to Leeds Bradford Airport this afternoon ahead of tomorrows game at Elland Road, however because of thick fog their chartered plane was forced to U-turn in Derby and land at Stansted.

    They will now be forced to travel via coach or train.
