The triple-ups I am considering for Blank Gameweek 18 Free Hit squad

Blank Gameweek 18 is just around the corner, and I wanted to use this opportunity to present some picks I feel should be part of your squad if you are opting to use the Free Hit.

At the time of writing, there was a lot of uncertainty looming around Spurs so, for the purpose of this piece I steered clear of the two clubs.

After all, the best way to maximise a Free Hit squad is to base as much as you can on things you are certain about.

  2. Kryptonite666

    Who is the best Grealish replacement for BGW ? Upto 8.9

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Rashford

      1. Kryptonite666
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He's 9.6 believe it or not.

        1. BrockLanders
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          True, soz. I like Mahrez, if he starts.

  3. Weeb Kakashi
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Pick one (No FH)

    A Sterling Dias
    B Rashford AWB

    Have KDB Bruno Cancelo

    (assuming a fit Sterling)

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B

    2. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A, means 4 city??

      1. Weeb Kakashi
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Sorry. I messed up.
        Its
        Sterling AWB
        Rashford Dias

    3. Dexters Laboratory
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A

  4. BrockLanders
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    My heads went full Exorcist over this BGW. Anyone know whether they're gonna make it through alive?

  5. Ziyech on the Bench
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Thoughts on this Free hit team?

    Leno / 4.0

    Shaw, Dier, Stones / Kilman, Mitchell

    Son, KDB(C), Bruno, Neto / 4.5

    Kane, Wilson, Jesus

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Looks decent. Shaw fit though??

    2. FPL Daniel
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Jesus

    3. Jimbo-Jones
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Jesus a bit of a gamble (and expensive at that).
      Prefer 352 and get Rash but could pay off.

      Rest is good - I'm considering Shaw vs Davies as only have 4.8 for final defender.

      1. jayzico
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yedlin

    4. FantasyHero
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Jesus is a good shout imo

  6. Jeremy Corbyn
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is Cavani an option?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I wouldn't touch personally. Could easily be benched

      1. ilikewud
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        This

    2. jayzico
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I love him. But a bit too risky albeit 3 games in hand

  7. DAZZ
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    On a FH:

    A) Lloris, Tierney, Smith-Rowe
    Or
    B) DDG, Dier, Saka.

    Tough one. Thoughts?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Very close. Probably A, just.

    2. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B - but Biased. See below:

  8. ilikewud
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Decided I was going to FH - Thoughts on this team

    DDG
    Stones, Dias, Dier, Tierny
    Bruno, KDB, Son
    Kane, Laca, Wilson

    Bench: Saka, Mitchell, Anguissa

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Dier over Saka???

      1. ilikewud
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yup - 50/50 can't really see Fulham scoring so it's a tough decision. Rather have a good bench just in case.

    This is going to be a volatile day for price changes isn't it? I mean I know the day before deadline day or deadline day generally are but I think this Spurs fixture announcement after so many days of not knowing means people that have managed to hold themselves off are letting loose now

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, done my transfers but not hit the chip yet... just incase 🙂

    2. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      WCs don't count towards price changes and I suspect a good portion will be that. None the less, likely to be a lot of price changes.

    3. FantasyHero
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Think its mostly free hits bringing them in and rest have them....dont think will change much

    4. Samwise
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      you think this is volatile, look at BTC and ETH

  11. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Pretty set now, Dias could drop down to Stones but I’m not sure.
    FH18 look G2G?

    Darlow
    Cancelo Dias Tierney
    KDB Bruno Son Saka
    Kane Laca Wilson
    (4.0, Yedlin, Mitchell, Reed)

    1. Jimbo-Jones
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Can't really see where you'd put the Dias money (except maybe upgrade Darlow to Lloris), so would keep as is.

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You pretty sure Wilson starts?

      1. ilikewud
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Why whats the news been?

      2. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Imagine so. Is there any pressers tomorrow?

  12. Fuddled FC
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is Lascelles an option now?

    At 4.2 he's a perfect enabler

    1. jayzico
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That's my worry. Who's his competition?

    2. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      is he free form injury ?

    3. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No. 45mins at the weekend and came off with fatigue. Won’t start

  13. FPL_BUCCANEER
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinez Forster
    Cancelo Robbo Lowton Dallas Coufal
    KDB Bruno Salah Son Soucek
    Watkins Bamford Brewster

    Thinking of Forster, Robbo, Salah -> DDG, Dias, Rashford to give

    DDG
    Dias Cancelo Lowton
    KDB Bruno Son Rashford
    Brewster

    Then GW19 Rashford -> Salah (or could even do Brewster -> Antonio(?)), and BB.

    Thoughts?

    Thanks all

    Anyone know if premier league covid test results are out on a particular day every week or is it fixture reliant like pressers?

  15. Mattymo23
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Sorry not done one yet but would anyone please comment on my FH team?

    De Gea
    Dias Dier Holding
    Bruno KDB Rash Son
    Kane Wilson

    Fodder ESR Brewster Kilman

    Thank you!

    1. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Don't see anything wrong with it

  16. R.C
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Lindelof or Shaw for next 3?

    (They're not injured)

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Shaw

    2. NejiHyuuga01
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Shaw but don't be surprised if he played one game in the Double

  17. FourLokoLeipzig
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Does anyone have the updated clean sheet odds? I’m assuming Spurs will be up there alongside City?

    MCI: 53%
    MNU: 45%
    ARS: 44%
    SHU: 37%

    1. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Shu!!!!

  18. quayle99
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Hows this?

    Darlow
    Tierney Cancelo WanB
    KDB Son Fernandes Foden SRowe
    Kane(c) Wilson

    [Ramsdale, Holding, Benteke, Lindlof]

    1. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nice. Foden a tasty differential

  19. WVA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Apologies if this is a little too good! Triple City, United, Spurs and double Arsenal!

    Lloris
    Cancelo Dias Tierney AWB
    KDB Bruno Son Rashford Saka
    Kane
    4.0 Brewster Mitchell 3.9

    1. jayzico
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm planning for next 3 (BB in 19) so I'd free up cash for that bench

      1. WVA
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        It's a FH!

  20. NejiHyuuga01
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Cup opponent has only 3 playing in the Blank while I planned to navigate without FH chip. 99% he uses it. I guess you can't chase all competitions after all.

  21. S.Kuqi
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Nice to see Wood getting mentioned in the article with 5 big chances in last 4. Not feeling so bad after seeing that. Think I have never owned Burnley striker before.

  22. ilikewud
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Rash and Brewster
    or
    Laca and Saka (first bench)

    1. Dexters Laboratory
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Rashford

  23. Neo-Viper
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How's Foden for the third City spot?

    Have Stones and KDB

    1. Dexters Laboratory
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Great Differential

  24. Dexters Laboratory
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Best (C) this week
    A. Kane
    B. Son
    C. KDB
    D. Bruno
    E. Laca
    Currently KDB (C) Kane (VC)

    1. ilikewud
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      So many good options this week. I'm going Kane but have had it on KDB and Bruno.

  25. Pukkipartyy

    What is this DCL hamstring injury???

    1. Dexters Laboratory
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yup gone for a while it looks

      1. Pukkipartyy
        • 5 Years

        Any idea how long?

  26. GROBARI

    Son KDB Bruno Zaha Saka

  27. Kryptonite666

    KWP to Tierney for (an effective) -2 ?

  28. Buck The Trent
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Would you save FH chip if I can field the following?

    GW18 (-4)
    ...
    Cancelo Stones Holding
    Kdb Bruno Son Rashford Saka
    Kane

    GW19 (-4)
    Martinez
    Cancelo Stones Dallas Coufal
    Kdb Bruno Rashford Salah
    ings Dallas

    1. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Save the FH

    36 positive tests this round

    1. yalala
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      This is the real news

    2. Baines on Toast...
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      The number is a slight decrease on the 40 positive tests following last week's rounds of testing.

  30. dbeck
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    fairly settled here, anything screaming out or a strong opinion on a pick or lack of?

    DDG
    Dias Tierney Cancello
    KDB Bruno Son rashford Saka
    Laca Wilson

    4.0 Saiss, Mitchell, Davis

    1. mr messi
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No Kane?

      1. dbeck
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Cant have them all, plus fulham def stat are very good of late

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Kane Reguilon over Laca Wilson

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Close to mine: DDG > Lloris, Rashford > Maguire, Wilson > Kane for 4-4-2 line up

      1. dbeck
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        interesting, feel like maguire is due a goal

    4. Sterling Malory
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It's missing Kane.
