With Gameweek 24 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) nearing, our contributors are starting to finalise their teams before Saturday’s deadline.

FPL General, who has three top 500 finishes to his name, is Wildcarding but will continue to plough on without Erling Haaland (£15.0m)!

Here, he outlines his plans for the week ahead.

General no Salah Haaland

Gameweek 23 Review

FPL General’s Gameweek 24 Wildcard reveal

Gameweek 23 ended up being a non-event for The Troops. After a great start to the weekend with Antoine Semenyo (£7.8m) being captain and Jarrod Bowen (£7.6m) going big, nothing else happened.

The arrow was a tiny green one, where the team sits at 2.1 million overall. So I pressed the Wildcard button on Saturday night. Wholesale changes are about to happen…

      everyone wants to leave including the
      Manager - small squad - stretched in europe
      could get dragged into relegation threat
      if lose to Forest this weekend & Mateta not

        Triple Wolves BB is a trap. I know they double, but it’s against the best team in the league. In addition, you could just start them that week if you were desperate to. BB better somewhere else, and I wouldn’t want to be lumped with such a wolves heavy bench because I tried to gain an extra fixture against Arsenal

      1FT and 0.5 spare.
      Any transfers or should I hold?
      I'm aware Wirtz needs to go but don't have enough to upgrade to Bruno. Thinking of making 3 transfers for -8 this week (Dorgu one of them) and moving some money around to get him.

                    Agree with Evasivo, DCL bench. Esteve could get a CS and DCs, but a potential goal/assist is worth more than the DC points. I'd play Timber

                        Not seeing a lot of BB's this week

                        With the budget options of Dubravka, Mane, Kroupi, Reinildo all having decent fixtures I thought it'd be more popular tbh

                                I think Thiago could reward you more than Rogers but most people seem to believe in Rogers

                              Arsenal were planning to fly to Leeds Bradford Airport this afternoon ahead of tomorrows game at Elland Road, however because of thick fog their chartered plane was forced to U-turn in Derby and land at Stansted.

                              They will now be forced to travel via coach or train.

                                  What is defence. If U can stretch to Pickford then him. Else if budget is like that then verb maybe

                                A) Dewsbury Hall and Ekitike to Bruno and Kroupi. -4

                                B) Rogers to Cunha. 1ft

                                    He's in all predicted line ups and is not flagged on pl app. So think he starts. But I am a spurs fan!
