Five-time top 1k finisher on Double Gameweek players, captaincy and chip strategy

One of the world’s best FPL managers, Tom Freeman, reveals his team plans for Double Gameweek 24 and beyond.

Gameweek 23 has drawn to a close and it went pretty well for me, as I ended on a total of 76 points.

However, with the fixtures coming thick and fast, focus has already turned to the forthcoming doubles. We’ll find out more once this week’s FA Cup fifth-round ties are complete, but for now, we at least know who will play twice in Gameweeks 24 and 25.

With all of my chips still intact, it’s going to be pretty exciting, but I’m also fully aware that it’s a pivotal stage of the season which I need to get right.

So, in this my latest column, I’m going to note down some thoughts on the teams involved in this week’s Double Gameweek and also outline my plans moving forward.

For context, here is how I’m currently set up, with two free transfers:

    So Antonio not on bench tonight for the FA cup means he is definately injured?

          I don't know. I'd say it's more likely he plays the league and was rested today, with fatigue as widely reported.

    Current team:

    Martinez
    Cancelo / Mee / Maguire / Cresswell
    Gundo / Salah / Grealish / Bruno
    DCL / Antonio

    Bench: Barnes / Chilwell / Adams

    Got exact cash to do Chillwell + Grealish > Tark and Sterling (-4)
    Good move? Or is there something better?

    Keeping in mind I’m wildcarding in 25 so not afraid to lose Grealish etc.

    For those with BB, WC, FH left, would a different strategy be to BB this week if you have a strong bench (Martinez, Son, Coufal, KWP), then WC GW26 to maximise the strongest 11 for that week with the latest updated injury news etc, and then FH in GW 29 with all the blanks?

    I am set up well for this GW with 6 DGW players already, 2FT still to use. Plus I have 2 Leeds and 2 Southampton players for DGW25. Then I can WC GW26 to get the Leeds players out and bring in the best 11 for the big double gameweek.

    So in summary:
    BB 24
    WC 26
    FH 29

    Thanks

      That's what I'm leaning towards at the moment.

      Bench Boost: Sanchez (AVL), Shaw (WBA), Coufal (SHU), Soucek (SHU)

      I already have 6 DGWers for GW24 and will have 3 Leeds for GW25

      GW24 Son, Dier, Wilson > Raphina, Shaw, Cavani for -4
      GW25 Coufal > Dallas

      Cancelo*, Mee*, Stones*
      Salah, Gundo*, Fernandes, Raphina

      Looked quite sharp & lively

      Periera should surely be back too (missed Spurs)

              For his week I’d say it’s Cancelo, Dias, Rudiger, Coufal with Harry benched

              Although 130 minutes for Coufal plus Ogbonna & Diop injuries are a spanner in the works, Coufal has went to CB for them... need to think on that now

        Depends on your situation. I have Stones, Dias, and Cancelo and want to sacrifice one to get Gundo (TC). So I think AW is the one to recover the hit.

    What if Moyes comes up with his usual knocks and niggles BS in Friday press conference? What to do with Antonio then? Hard to believe he's not even on the bench if it's just fatigue.

      I think his owners need to rewatch the minutes leading up to his substitution and decide for themselves what to make of this “fatigue” business tbh

      I think Moyes is possibly being a bit disingenuous

        I agree. Reason most likely is that they sold Haller and didn't sign another striker. Let's see what he comes up with.

        Wholeheartedly agree.
        He was chasing down a through ball, and visibly pulled up and then signalled to come off.
        It took a couple of minutes before he was subbed, and was still mobile, but visibly in discomfort.
        And that was after the clearly seen 'hamstring rub' during the Fulham corner.

        I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't to be seen on the weekend either.

          Yeah when I saw him grabbing the back of his leg defending the corner it was immediately looking dodgy... low & behold he then pulls out of a run & a minute later he’s subbed...

          Hard to know because Moyes hasn’t confirmed it obviously, but it had hamstring written all over it

            If you don't want to switch it all about just play Dias, Cancelo and Foden.

            You could punt on a captain on Foden in a double but good teams. Could be a masterstroke?!

      To maximise GW29 blanks now, following the Burnley loss and Man Utd win, you need the following teams to win, which would leave 7 blanks.

      Man City (vs Swansea), Chelsea (vs Barnsley), Everton (vs Spurs), Southampton (vs Wolves), Sheffield Utd (vs Bristol City).

      Confirmed GW29 fixtures are:

      Fulham vs Leeds
      West Ham v Arsenal

      One of Brighton vs Newcastle and Burnley vs Leicester will also go ahead.

          I think the fewest fixtures with one decent attacking team is optimal.

          However, with at least 3 fixtures you can pile in whilst people who hate hits look on with less than half a team.

          Either way it's a differential to anyone with say 6 or 7 players involved and no FH.

          Except 3 games are confirmed so a full squad for free hitters.

          Minimising games beyond this helps those able to navigate gw29.
