    Any opinions on best strategy for this with FH, TC and BB left but no WC?

    Similar situation here. Think it depends how many players you have with a double gw for 32 and how many players you have available for gw 33.
    I’ve gone with free hit for 32, would have liked to TC Aguero or Sterling, but for me probably more beneficial to get 11dgw players for this week. I’ll have 10 or 11 playing for gw33.
    Still to decide whether to TC gw 35 or bench boost.

    Toyed around about and currently have:

    Fabianski
    Lindelof(May change) Luiz Laporte Schlupp
    Mane Hazard Sterling
    Aguero Rondon Rashford

    Hamer, Brooks Barnes Yedlin.

    Toss between Jimmy and Rashford really but feel I need United cover.

    I wonder what Ben Crelin gets up to between now and the end of the season.

    WC activated... just needed to see all those DGWers with their fixtures.

    For some reason, I'm going to keep with Higuain. 2 excellent fixtures and a home GW33 fixture... ah who am I kidding, I hate having him. If I was on/had a FH, he wouldn't be there. Have serious Kane fear but it would mean losing my bench, which is needed for 33.

    Kepa
    Laporte, Schlupp, AWB, Dunk
    Sterling, Pogba, Hazard, Mili
    Aguero, Higuain

    Ryan, Rondon, Brooks, Daniels

    If Zaha is fit then I'll probably get Higuain out and upgrade Mili or do a little re-jig.

    9 for GW33 as it stands. Will be taking a -4 to get 2 pool in.

    Kepa
    Schlupp, AWB, Daniels, (VVD in)
    Hazard, Mili, Brooks, (Mane in)
    Rondon, Higuain

    My Kane fear is diminishing a little. Their recent form isn't great, one game is away to Pool, and they're as likely to freeze in the new stadium as they are to explode. It took them ages to adjust to Wembley.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    I'm now thinking of BB in 34. My crappier players - and that's what BB is, a chance for your crappier players to shine - have decent fixtures, and Brighton and Cardiff have a double. Brighton will likely only have staying up as a goal by that stage.

    Big change up in my squad
    WILDCARD ACTIVE
    Any opinions???

    Ederson
    TAA Doherty Wan Bissaka VVD
    Sterling Hazard Mane
    Jimenez Aguero Fraser

    Have Sterling as captain but do not think he will start both games :/

    Still have all my chips :D
    Probably use the FH this GW. Still have a week to mull it over ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭redarmy


    Hi folks, still have all chips, only have 3 double this week plus 2 players in the red, what advice on what chips to use going foward, Thanks in advance. only 7 for 33

    Without knowing your team:
    Wildcard now
    Free hit 33
    BB 34 (cardiff and brighton have doubles)
    TC 35 when double

    Although this may well be the best week for TC if you weren't "burdened" with all your chips

    Anyone in the same spot as me with a WC & BB left? Any templates for a WC 33 team that would also allow a BB 34 team? Or should I take a hit to field as many as possible in 33 and then WC in 34 with 35 also in mind for a BB? I’ll draw up a few ideas in the coming days.

    Yeah and also at a loss as to what to do! Thinking bb in 35 and then TC salah vs huddersfield in 36.

    Holebas starts so I can consider my bench boost a success or at least not a fail

    WC 34 is my preference with a 35 BB

    Bit of a head scratcher this evening.

    9 transfers made just to insure I have 11 players for this GW33, played the WC of course.

    Dont want to make any more, as planning on getting two of them back in, in time for GW 35 without taking a hit, and without reducing DGW players for GW 34 and 35.

    The four not playiing this GW, three are scheduled are playing twice in GW34, and all scheduled to play in GW35. So may leave things as they are now.

    When two players are back in, will have 2/3 DGW players for GW34, and 6/7 for GW35. All depends on when I play the bench boost.

    Current line up (after transfers)

    Ryan Fabianski
    V.Dijk PVA Pereira Kolasinac Duffy
    Mané Fraser March Son Richarlison
    Firmino Lacazette Rondón

    Two players coming back in are Docherty for Pereira, and Aguero for Lacazette. Anyother suggestions, and what week to play the Bench Boost. No other chips left.

    WC has been activated?

    Prob don't want to hear it but it isn't really the week for the WC imo.

    WC in 34 and BB in 35 is the one people are going for I think. Load their teams with DGWers in the WC and potentially have 8(4 DGW subs) games on the bench alone...

    Even if on WC, I would nearly consider going with only 9 or 10 this week and sticking in a couple more 35 DGWers.

    You've always the option of a hit in the lead up to 35 as well I suppose.

    Still have TC, WC and BB,

    Is WC this game week the best option?

    I'm planning on WC in 34, bb in 35 and tc Salah in 36. Guess the alternative would be WC now then bb in 34 and tc kun in 35? I don't want to rush a wc by tomorrow night though.

    Many will do it next week (34) and set themselves up for a BB for the next double week (35). Though it means likely no double week for TC.

    With only a free hit left when is the best time to do it, start of gw34 or 35 ?

    35 is the obvious answer but it all BB depends on your team

    Do you have many doublers for 35? That will give your answer.

    Cartman's spreadsheet is an invaluable tool at this time of season
    I have a clear plan in mind now around BB and TC
    Not the one I had in mind . But it is so easy to see the games my fodder have and save me taking hits to waste on BB

    And now I have changed my mind again LOL
    It is very hard resist the lure of a DGW packed with doublers
