    Why are so many managers choosing to FH this week?
    No teams are missing a game and most of the popular picks are injury free and have decent fixtures.
    Am I missing something?

      Basically a lot of people have Arsenal and Chelsea who are playing each other and also Palace and United.

      There are teams playing (Brentford, City, Liverpool, Villa) where people don’t want many long term but are a great 1 week punt.

      There really isn’t many other weeks to use it with this type of opportunity

        This.

        It's a great opportunity to attack the BUR, WOL & LEE fixtures with differentials. Even West Ham is still a good fixture on paper for out of sorts Liverpool who could still spank them.

      You might have missed the fact we get all chips twice this season.

      Is there a better week for you? I would say you could free hit that, bare in mind you got as many FT as you currently got until GW15 and then we get another 5 for GW 16, what other weeks would you use it?

        My team isn't too bad on paper, 16 was the other week I was considering but probably less good for differentials. I am leaning towards this week

    Who called the Munoz over Virgil pick last week? Was it Ze Austin? What is his gut saying this week regarding FH draft?

        Thanks. Hedging my bets with Dango and Schade which means Munoz instead of Van den Berg and no Gakpo.

    Would you take a -4 on any player here? If yes, who and what’s the logic? TC on Haaland.
