It’s time for another team reveal as we approach Gameweek 28 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL).

Dan Wright – who you can find here on X – has five top 10k finishes, which means he ranks 17th in our Career Hall of Fame.


My slide down the rankings continued in Gameweek 27, as a 40-point return saw me fall to an overall rank of 58k.

GAMEWEEK 28 TEAM REVEAL

With Chelsea’s favourable run of fixtures now over, Enzo Fernández (£6.8m) will almost certainly be one of my transfers out this week – especially with the return of Cole Palmer (£10.6m), which dents his Fantasy appeal. Enzo will likely make way for either Dango Ouattara (£5.9m) or Kevin Schade (£6.9m), with Ouattara currently edging it over his Brentford teammate.

I’m still undecided on my second free transfer. I may roll it, as I want to bank a couple before activating my Wildcard in Gameweek 32. That said, I could use it to switch Jurrien Timber (£6.4m) to Virgil van Dijk (£6.0m) ahead of Arsenal’s blank in Gameweek 31.

David Raya (£6.0m) keeps his place in goal for Gameweek 28 despite the tricky fixture against Chelsea. The same applies to Gabriel Magalhães (£7.1m), while Timber drops out of my starting XI regardless of whether Van Dijk comes in. Matty Cash (£4.9m) and Jan Paul van Hecke (£4.4m) complete the defence, although Cash would likely make way if I go through with the Van Dijk move.

Matheus Cunha (£8.0m), Bruno Fernandes (£9.9m), Erling Haaland (£14.8m), and Igor Thiago (£7.1m) all look nailed in my front seven.

It looks like I’ll be benching Florian Wirtz (£8.4m) now, which probably means a benching headache regarding Elliot Anderson (£5.4m) and Eli Junior Kroupi (£4.7m) will be solved even if Ouattara arrives.

Captaincy is tight. As it stands, Fernandes just edges it over Haaland.

      in isolation A looks great, but who are you benching?

      1. Eric Banternaaa
        • 12 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Rice would be my pick.

  3. popey
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    bench one

    a) Rice (CHE)
    b) Kroupi (SUN)
    c) Wilson (TOT)
    d) Rogers (wol)

    Currently on a) as this gives me the most differential options in my ML

    and i could live with missing a Rice haul if Chelsea lose as a nervous Villa fan

    1. Eric Banternaaa
      • 12 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      B

  4. TochanMama
    • 13 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    A) Chalobah to Oreily
    Or
    B) Enzo to Rayan?

    Which one is the priority for this week? Going for a FHGW31

    Pickford
    Gabriel • VVD • Hill
    Mbuemo • Semenyo • Rice • Rogers • Enzo*
    Thiago • Haaland
    (Dubravka • Kroupi • Chalobah* • Alderete)

    1. popey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      B this week, sunderland poor away form and defence is good for this week

      1. TochanMama
        • 13 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        That's essentially playing Enzo vs Arsenal. You think he'd outscore Oreily vs Leeds?

        1. TochanMama
          • 13 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          I mean Rayan vs Sunderland. Sorry. Would Rayan be outscoring Oreily?

          1. popey
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            1 month, 16 days ago

            if you went O'R would you play 442?

            I think its close, sunderland don't look great right now and Rayan should be a fun differential

  5. Eric Banternaaa
    • 12 Years

    A

  6. Il Capitano

    Raya

    Roll FT?

    1. TochanMama

      Roll

  7. GC123
    • 4 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    VVD or Hill?

  8. Stap
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Tempted to do O'reilly captain, but Leeds scores every game..
    1. Haaland, 2 O'reilly 3 Bruno

    1. popey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      I went Bruno after palace playing last night

      1. Stap
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Yeah good one, could pay off. O'reillys new position could be nice, if they keep CS

        1. Stap
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          because of more goal and assist potential

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      O Reilly overachieved his XG last weekend, 2 goals from a expected 0.32. Sensible option is stick with Haaland.

      1. Utopsis
        • 6 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        If you watch both goals, you'll note that 0.32 xG doesn't paint an accurate picture. Both were pretty straightforward finishes from good positions.

        He nearly got a 3rd too! But agree (C) is too punty

  9. Khark

    Hi gents really stuck for a timber replacement, can’t afford Virgil (as another move I am doing is getting Thiago for Mane)

    A. Frimpong or Konate
    B. O’reilly
    C. Andersen

    B doesn’t matter in regards to blank 31 for reference as only have Haaland and Gabriel for bench that week. Thanks in advance

  10. Mata of opinion
    • 6 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Went early with wirtz transfer last week. Do I let JP come in off the bench or -4 for someone?

    Raya
    Gab VVD Cash
    Bruno Rogers Semenyo Wilson Wirtz*
    Thiago Haaland
    Dub JP Chalobah Esteve

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Start JP

    2. Il Capitano
      • 5 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      JP

    3. Mata of opinion

    Best GKs until WC32?

    1. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Currently have Sanchez & Dubravka, so need to sell Sanchez to get someone worthwhile.

      1. Wet Bandits
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Alison for me - done the same move this week (see below comment)

  12. Wet Bandits
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Does this look G2G? Feels wrong putting rogers on the bench. Have 1FT

    Alison
    Gab, Nunes, VVD
    Bruno, Wilson, Semenyo, Rice
    Haaland, Eki, Thiago

    Dub, Rogers, Tark, Esteve

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Maybe play Rogers over Rice

      1. Wet Bandits
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Yeah it's a tough one isn't it. Rice should be good for defcon v Chelsea.. rogers may just continue blanking

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 9 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          Rice should be a steady floor of 4 or 5 points, Rogers could be 2 or 15

  13. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Wirtz to Rayan -4 and bench Enzo?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Close. Play Enzo though

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        Ain’t it too much? Wirtz most likely not ready for the next game as well?

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • 9 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          If you hold off on the hit then you can reassess for free next GW

  14. Miguel Sanchez
    • 9 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Palmer to Rayan done. Good luck all!

  16. Clintymints
    • 16 Years
    1 month, 16 days ago

    Thiago in for Pedro

    or

    Virgil in for Tark (Would mean benching maguire)

    Preference? or just stick... 1 ft... would be good to have transfers in 31

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • 9 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      Virgil - JPedro pretty playable after this GW

  17. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    1. Utopsis
      • 6 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      I'm not so sure now. Leeds much more solid, Bruno I can't see blanking 3 weeks in a row now playing as #10

      1. Ignasi M
        • 8 Years
        1 month, 16 days ago

        hmm really? Leeds are better since xmas, but they still concede. look at the arsenal game

        1. Utopsis
          • 6 Years
          1 month, 16 days ago

          Yeah really good point. Who are you going with?

  30. TochanMama

    1 month, 16 days ago

    A and then bench chalobah

    1. TochanMama
      • 13 Years
      1 month, 16 days ago

      That was for ALLI, my bad.
