Subs, Hamer, Pogba, Lindelhof, Valery

I don't know, he could get to 7 players with a -8? Which in reality is a - 4. Really think the free hit will be more valuable for 32.

60 points ahead in my money league. Have 3 players playing this weekend and 2FT, guess I have to free hit ? Not sure what to do as I’ve no idea what the story is with DGW’s etc now.

Throw up your team there?

Only having three this week means he has 12 with possible DGW next week. FH this week then TC or BB the next

Will Manchester United and Wolves play twice next GW (32) ?

Yes. It's literally listed right there on the site

If it's covering you for 33 it can be justified due to appearance points

I just wish he'd said Fraser will be ok instead of should be ok! Given that prognosis I guess worst case scenario is he misses out and gets 2 points in 33 but the upside more than makes up for that risk.

What outcome are we hoping for in the Watford v Palace game FF wise?

Eddie Howe is a pathological liar. If he says Fraser is Ok, he's possibly already died from his injuries and certainly won't be playing this weekend

Free hit team playing and hoping for a West Ham clean sheet and Mane to make the Liverpool team selection. Guessing that him missing training as some people have posted might have been enough of a rest.

Fabianski
Alexander Arnold, Diop, Rice
Hazard, Mane, Salah(c), Sigurdsson
Vardy(vc), Rondon, Wilson

Boruc, Richarlison, Pereira, Digne

Would have selected Fraser and Higuain if there were not doubts about them playing.
Good luck and happy St. Patric'ks weekend.

It's a tricky one. I'm in favour of going big on hits for players that will play in GW31 and 33 as the hit will be wiped out by appearance points and anything else you get will be a bonus. I'd take a - 8 or -12 if I was your position and free hit next week but others here would disagree.

Ace2007

Boruc,
Luiz, VVD, Bardsley, Stankovic
Hazard, Salah, Mane (c), Westwood
Barnes, Rondon

Willy, Simpson, Pogba, Aguero

-8

Boruc
Robbo Pereira TAA
Fraser Anderson Barnes Salah (C) Hazard (V)
Wilson Vardy

Best of luck everyone!

In the situation of 3 playing it would be a good week for the free hit in my opinion as you will get the benefit of 8 more players scoring you points. Pity about loosing the extra free transfer but if your team is doing that well maybe there were no major changes required to the team anyway.

I think we overthink things
He has 3 players. Use FH
If he has 12 players with no game this week they will likely have doubles anyway
Sometimes absolutely no planning is rewarded..........

Cheers for the advice lads think I’m gonna FH.

-4

Allison

Robbo Rice Diop Ogbonna
Salah(c) Almiron
Mitrovic Higuain Vardy

Would be typical of my season to see Huddersfield grab a goal

How would you feel about a mitrovic goal !
Interesting team......

I would feel amazed 😉. I’ll take his 2 points and move him on finally next week. He has been on my hit list for 10 weeks but there has always been a bigger priority.

Just debating whether to get Hazard in for a -4, in reality a -2 given his appearance points...

For Son to bring me up to 11. Followed by a WC next week.

Do it. Two points is nothing and at worst it makes the game week more interesting

Cypher_sounds

Boruc,
Azpi, VVD, Digne,
Hazard, Salah, Mane (c), Fraser, Siggy
Wilson, Vardy

Lossl, Rondon, Rice, Stankovic

My finalised team...I think.

Play Rice

If only to share in the misery when Huddersfield score (but serious it's the best fixture for a defender this week)

SlickRic

-4

Sterling ---> Hazard
Jimenez ---> Wilson

FH next week.

Fabianski
Ake Pereira VVD
Hazard Salah Mané
Barnes Wilson Vardy

Good luck all.

Could still do Deulofeu ----> Fraser for another -4. Tempted to just leave it.
