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.

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…

        Whether to bench Wilson or Thiago is a 50/50 call for me. I'm probably reluctantly benching Wilson because Thiago presumably is on pens.

        Keep, start, bench, sell for JP (in form, possible DGW ahead but rotation risk), Evanilson (in form and good fixtures but I don't trust Bournemouth and don't want to waste a transfer for someone with no upcoming DGW) , Mané (in form and possible DGW but it's Wolves)...?

          Last wildcard decision. I'm at 1m so I'm aiming for some differentials;
          A) Watkins, Enzo, Andersen +$1.8m
          B) Thiago, Palmer, Alderete +$0.0

          Full team
          Sanchez, Sa
          Gab, Timber, Munoz, Sensei, Aaaa
          Rice, Bruno, Mbeumo, Rogers, Bbbb
          Evanilson, Joao Pedro, Cccc

          Other advice welcome

            B. Watkins seem to be injured and Thiago has some great fixtures coming up

          Am I mad to start DCL (ARS) over Szob who will likely be playing RB? Szob could get DC but DCL hit the post and should have hauled v Everton
