Hall of Famer Dan Wright’s Gameweek 12 team reveal

It’s time for another team reveal as we approach Gameweek 12 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.

Gameweek 11 ended on an average note for me. My score of 41 points was just enough to secure a small green arrow, moving me up to 795k OR.

GAMEWEEK 12 TRANSFER PLANS, FREE HIT STRATEGY + CAPTAIN

Gabriel injury latest

Heading into Gameweek 12, I only have one free transfer, and – like many managers – the final decision depends heavily on team news. At the moment, Gabriel Magalhaes (£6.6m), Enzo Fernández (£6.7m), and Antoine Semenyo (£8.1m) are all flagged. Early reports suggest Gabriel could be out for 1-2 months, which would make him the ideal transfer out.

        I am bringing in them both for Gabriel and Tarkowski.

        Are you FH13? If so Munoz is appealing for wol and bur GW12 and 14 respectively.

      If Semenyo is confirmed out, best way to finance a transfer to Bruno? Need to find 0.2m. Will FH13, so have a bunch of FTs to use by GW15:

      A) Xhaka -> Potts (4.4)
      B) Alderete -> Heaven (3.8)
      C) Pope -> Sanchez (4.8) / Petrovic (4.5)
      D) Woltemade -> Thiago (6.3)
      E) Woltemade -> Guiu (4.2) and use another FT for Xhaka -> 8.1m (Foden/Gakpo/Cunha) for a 3-5-2

      Pope
      Timber, Senesi, Richards
      Saka, Mbeumo, Semenyo, Sarr
      Haaland, Mateta, Woltemade

      Dubravka, Xhaka, Rodon, Alderete

          Yeah I like Thiago, but his next few fixtures aren't great on paper (bha, ars, tot). I'll likely have him on FH13.

            It's hard. Arsenal have the best defence in country. But with pool fixtures and arsenal/spurs always high scoring id go vvd. Its a easy swap back come gw15 with 5 swaps if backfired

      Depending on who is ruled out of Kudus / Semenyo i'm thinking of the below, with the one left taking the final midfield spot:
      Gabriel & Kudus / Semenyo > VVD & Bruno Fernandes -4

      Leaves me with:

      Petrovic
      Senesi / VVD / Munoz
      Saka / Mbuemo / Fernandes /
      Haaland / Mateta / Thiago

      Dubravka / KDH / Acheampong / Gudmundsson

        feel's very skinny. if they are both fit then you are good to go and save, if only one is fit then it would be worth making a move in my opinion.

        we have a bunch of extra free transfers coming up, playing aggressive now is the right approach in my opinion

        Rest of the defence isn't so great at the moment either. Robertson LB and Gravenberch in front of them improves things but cleansheets could still be rare.

        Gakpo is a great option anyhow

      Mbeumo (MU) and Richards (CRY) or Szoboszlai (LIV) and Munoz(CRY)? Please suggest to pick a pair out of the two.

        Wait to see where Szobo plays, with Bradley injured

        I'd still prefer MR anyway

      I can keep hold of Semenyo ...

      And transfer Gabriel and Eze to O'Reilly and Saka for exact money with my 2 FTs.

      Is that worth doing?

      Or is it worth holding on to Eze?

      This also means that Romero hangs around for another week, the wildcard Gw 6 punt lingers on and he missed my BB.

      This also leaves an Arsenal spot open for Gabriel back, but I lose out 0.3m selling him today.

        Would be tempted by these moves, I'm selling Eze as well. I'm just not 100% sure about O'Reilly right now.

            I honestly don't have trust in him, was my bad punt on WC

          It's not the best week to pick O'Reilly to play, but gotta be pragmatic too.

          I'm not normally one of those, but as soon as Eze goes he gets a brace.

          I've stood by him a while and when he clicks he's going to haul.

          Saka also has very few none penalty goals away from home in recent seasons but perhaps I shouldn't be guided by random facts!

          He'll probably score in the NLD.

      How’s this wildcard looking?

      Lammens (Dubravka)
      Virgil, Senesi, Timber (Van Hecke) (Mukiele)
      Gakpo, Sarr, Minteh, Mbeumo (Semenyo)
      Haaland, Mateta, Thiago

            Haha!

            That wasn't a criticism, tbh. Just how it looks

            We've got 5 FTs by GW16, so anything goes between now and then

            I'd probably downgrade a defender to afford switching two mids to Potts and Saka, but I don't know who exactly

        Like the look of it .

        Might be tempted by Verbruggan and De Ligt over Lammens and Van Hecke

      'Both muscle issues. I don't expect Conor to be part of the squad [in the] upcoming 22 days, unless a miracle happens. Florian maybe should not be that long.'

      'Jeremie (Frimpong) is out just as long, won't be available in the next few weeks.'

      Possible options...

      'Dominik (Szoboszlai) is playing very well in all positions. Joe Gomez has played two 90-minute [games] in 2025, so if we want to keep him available longer, it's maybe a risk to play him seven times in [three weeks]. He missed training yesterday, but we are expecting him to train today.'

      'Maybe one or two players have to play in positions they normally won't do...'

      .

      With Gabril injured and Paqueta banned I need to make two moves. I am pretty set on Virgil, but torn between Bruno Fernandes and Minteh for the mid spot. Who would you go for?

      Rest of midfield: Saka - Mbeumo - Semenyo with King as a sub.

      Do we think Alderete starts? He hasn't played for a while and Ballard has been doing well in his absence
