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.

    Think I've finally cracked my FH team (if Pep clears Sterling in the presser):

    Leno
    Cancelo - Tierney - AWB
    KDB - Sterling - Bruno - Son - Saka
    Kane - Wilson

    (Steer) (Mitchell - Davis - Douglas)

    How’s my free hit looking? Not comfortable with 451, but I like it:

    Lloris
    Cancelo, AWB, Tierney, Stones
    KDB, Bruno, Son, Rashford, Saka
    Kane (C)

    4.0; Brewster, Mitchell, 4.3

      I like it. Very good team and you solved my problems with that 4-5-1 😉 GL.

    FH19 looks a lot better now, hmm.

    1. OverTinker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I am WCing so no problem

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

        Same. Happier now with the WC.

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

          Whats your team like atm?

      2. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Edging closer by the minute myself - but alternative still to ride out with 8 players

    2. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Agreed. Much much better. Almost essential haha

  6. Bram
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    So 3 all EPL ties in the 4th round with Man Utd v Liverpool clearly the pick of the round

  7. panda07
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Which one would you choose?

    A) Stones & Lloris
    B) DDG & Dias

    1. Baros Boy
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B

    2. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Very tough. A just on cs odds

  8. KaBoZ: Kids,don't Drin…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Already have Bruno and Saka, pick a fwd:
    A) Richarlison (scored 4 goals in 4 games against Wolves. And might be on pens)
    B) Martial (i see him as a good CF pick against BUR defense)
    C) Lacazette (stats, form and playing CRY)

    1. Davros
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Could cavani take martial mins?

      1. KaBoZ: Kids,don't Drin…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        yes that's why I'm not sure abt him at all

  9. fc_skrald
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Time to try how it feels owning Foden? - could this go through gw18 and then maybe use the wildcard next gameweek?

    a. Robertson + Grealish -> Cancelo + Foden
    b. get someone else than Foden (8.9 million to use but would like to save around 2 million to get Ings for Wilson next gw if I don't use the wildcard)

    (Martínez)
    Lowton, Taylor, (Robertson)
    Son, Burke, Fernandes, (Grealish)
    Wilson , Kane, (Bamford)

    Button, Salah, Coufal, Douglas
    2 free transfer, 0.1 million in the bank, all chips available

  10. Rhodes your boat

    What should I do? Willing to take a hit to field 8 this week, 1FT 0.1itb, strujik balbuena to Mitchell Clark -4??

    Stones holding
    Kdb Bruno son
    Kane

    Martinez Forster kwp balbuena strujik salah soucek bamford davis

  11. Baros Boy

    Saka or ESR?

    And why?

    Personally I’ve not been inspired by Saka in the past...although I know he is on some form. ESR seems mega cheap but I’m not sure how nailed...at £4.4m in the number 10 role at arsenal seems mental!

    Thank you

  12. Tonyawesome69

    So either SOU gets a bye or Leeds and SOU games rearranged out of 19?

  13. fedolefan
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Delighted if Leeds/Sou doesn't go ahead in GW19 as I don't own anyone besides Adams whom I'm transferring out for Wilson this week.

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

      Me too, only have Bamford and KWP and it's not like KWP would keep any CS anyway.

  14. Flair
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    If Villa vs Everton is called off I'll have 7 SGW players next week lmao, definitely FH material that

  15. Ian Davis
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    DCL worth a -4 for anyone?

    1. Herman Toothrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Hamstring injury

    2. dark91
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes if you don't have any other good sub

  16. Obi Wan Elokobi
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I’m on wildcard and literally have no idea what to do now. There’s no way I can bench boost surely.

    1. OverTinker
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      yes no double for leeds has become a problem now

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

      Agreed. Makes it much harder

  17. Herman Toothrot
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    So Southampton play this GW based on the Arsenal draw?

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nope. Their game against Leeds is likely to be moved to a future GW after GW19.

  18. FredrikH
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Captain Kane KDB or Bruno?

    1. Z
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Son or Kane?

      1. Z
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Oh...you wrote Kane..sry. Have the same problem

  19. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Dallas, Bamford, Raphinha, KWP, Adams.

    Kill me.

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Same. But don't kill me

    2. Don Kloppeone
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yep all of them in my GW19 team currently.... 🙁

  20. ivantys
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    What's the rationale for postponing the fixture if they face those 5 teams? Because those 5 teams' fixtures are harder to postpone as compared to the rest?

  21. Z
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    When is Spurs game changed?

  22. Cilly Bonnolly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Fairly set on this for my FH:

    Leno
    Cancelo, Maguire, Dias
    Saka, Rashford, De Bruyne, Fernandes, Neto
    Kane, Lacazette

    Subs: Button, Saiss, Brewster, Mitchell

    What do we reckon?

  23. Corona is not good 4 U
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Why is Wilson in so few FH teams? He's responsible for penalties, Sheffield is last and Wilson has played consistently well this season. Thanks!

    1. Obi Wan Elokobi
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He’s potentially injured

      1. OverTinker
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        really???

  24. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Mark's wildcard looking greater day by day

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

      Why?

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

        Triple Leeds including Rodrigo

  25. diesel001
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    LOL. That Leeds hoarding for a DGW looks to have flopped hard now.

    1. Yes Ndidi
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No need for a LOL, is there? Especially one in caps.

  26. Timothy
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Wilson fit to play or no?

    1. FFFoxy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I know he wasn’t In fa cup squad but I haven’t heard anything on his fitness. I assumed he was just rested, have we had any news on him over the last week?

  27. Bubbles1985
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How does this look for GW18 with one hit?

    Martinez
    Cancelo Mitchell
    KDB(vc) Bruno Son(c) Sterling
    Brewster DCL Wilson

    Rest of squad
    Forster, Coufal, Soucek, KWP, Ayling

    I then plan a single hit for GW19
    Sterling and Wilson > Salah and Bamford
    To leave 10 DGWers and then play TC on Salah or KDB

    Thoughts on that?

  28. zotter
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Hang on. So does that draw mean Saints and Leeds likely out of double??

    So throws my bench boost in bin

    I currently have (once FH team reverses )

    - no city
    - two villa
    - doubtful Dcl
    - two Leeds
    - Kwp

    Time to switch that FH to Wc?

    Can you actually do that?

    1. jimmy.floyd
      • 7 Years

      No

  29. FFFoxy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    A) Gundogan
    B) Saka?

    1. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B
