Our series of articles on the best Free Hit squad for Blank Gameweek 31 continues today with a look at midfielders.

Using data that can be found in the Fantasy Football Scout members area we have assessed which options are the most likely to find the back of the net, offer assists, or provide a combination of both.

Members can read on and take in our analysis, but those without membership can still enjoy Tuesday’s article on goalkeepers for free.

    Morning chaps.
    I have 5 players for gw31: taa, robertson, anderson, sterking, king + 2FT.
    Ive also got sterling, rashford, jimi and doherty.
    Worth a FH this gw? It seems daft to transfer out players with 2 games in gw32 like doherty and jimi.
    Thanks

          I would not hesitate on taking hits for attackers like Wilson,vardy, Fraser , hazard etc.
          You can take 1/2 hits & field 8/9 this gw.

            Thanks. I can get 9 players out with a -8.
            Or 8 players with a -4.

    Robbo Pereira Stankovic
    Fanderson Salah Mane Brooks
    Wilson Vardy

    9 players (+ Stankovic - not sure if he really counts)

    The only none-player from the rest of my squad I'm willing to lose is Schar (sus).

    Shar to Rice (or someone else?) for another -4 worth it?

            Yeah. I was wondering about it.
            Actually I've learned a lot this year from this community 😀
            Previous years i only used to think about next gw & take hits every week.
            First time ever i played a WC strategically in gw 5 looking for next 5-6 fixtures as box.

            I'm looking forward to FH next gw & WC in 33/34 now to use the SV I've got.

      SV might undercall your FH capability, it would assume you want none of your current squad to be in your FH32 squad... many will have TV locked up in their 3x outfield GW31 benchers.... three of the likes of Pogba, Sterling, Kun, Rashford, Doherty etc, could easily add >2.0m above SV for your FH32

        This is true. Hence, Aguero out this week.

        Bench this week will be Hamer,AWB,Doherty,Pogba so a bit of value on the bench.
        Think I’m selling Doherty next week on FH. Might only get one of the 2 games.

      They should have signed De Jong. Fernandinho will be 34 next year and Ilkay may leave. Other than that, if they do not loose any players they have a great squad to handle at least a couple of years.
