GW38 Transfer Thread

Here we are, last GW of the season. And by god it is going to be carnage. Teams stacked with 6+ Villa, Palace, Arsenal & City players could be struggling to field 11.

I've a 17 points ML leader to chase down. Need a differential captain and just pray. There's a chance, slim, but a chance.

Chasing 23 points and just the 1 FT, will bring in a differential and give them the armband.

Have 6 Arse/City assets, am loathe to taking a hit but hard to see Cherki/Semenyo/Saliba/Eze getting too many minutes.

Banking It.

I'll be back in 12 months to make the same joke, 5 years on the trot. Toodles

I'm trying to think outside the box with this one as same spot really. Bowen too obvious, Ricky has Solanke for competition now minutes risk.

But if we get a City leak and the likes of Marmoush/Foden etc are starting, than that could be the answer.

But then we've Mo!! One last hurrah for the FPL king, what a way to win the ML and potentially my highest ever OR.

1FT what would you do…Bowwn is an option, but it seems Pedro is fit and they need goals also!! DCL , Maybe, or maybe its better to change Rice to someone Szoboszlai?

Rival has Bowen and Szobs, so either way I'm probably matching closer to some of his players, but I am ahead and this might be the right think to do anyway, even if no other real options?

Captain also not sure!!

G1032 · 22-05-2026 10:53PM

I think I'm goosed. Have Thiago and Dango who I'll have to keep and play.

3 Arsenal (Raya, Gabby, Eze) and 3 City (Haaland, Nico, Cherki)

DCL is my other forward and I don't think Leeds will do much against WHU. Might sell him and bench Cherki. Have 2.4. itb. 1 FT.

ForestFire · 22-05-2026 10:55PM

The other exciting think this weekend is all games on an exactly the same time….the points will feel like they are flying in on Sunday!!!

And no late FLP lords changing the BPS 3 days later!!😛

If ahead, I'd be matching as much as possible. Bowen the most obvious one.

If we get a leak that Haaland is benched, be a fair call to move to Bowen and start your 3 up front. It's a risk! But you don't need to chase.

Your bench as of now is strong, persume it is Bournemouth and Groß, so at least if/when the Arsenal/City players get benched, you've solid cover.

A positive move from FPL and also to carry into next season.

For next season this is fine as it affects, unfairly and mainly the last sunday game or the Monday night game.Introducing It now will be interesting, especially for the actuall top 10, and how the provisonal (1-2hr affter game) vs the Review will be different and will it affect any positions

Cartman78 · 23-05-2026 05:08PM

Watching Boro vs Hull..…very underwhelming so far.... everyone on the pitch should be priced at 4m.

Cartman78 · 23-05-2026 05:30PM

McBurnie nailed of 5m striker 😂

And Lord Lundstram as a premium 8m defender obvs

What are Saka owners doing?

Will wait as close as possible to deadline but Saka is the most obvious one I'll be moving on. I've a feeling Gyökeres could start and Havertz start CL final then.

The potential City leak will tell a lot. Saka to Marmoush for example could be a move.

larchielads · 23-05-2026 09:53PM

still got a wildcard, 2 points behind in my league?league. Any ideas?

I see sheep · 23-05-2026 09:55PM

I've my free hit.

Advice please

fplfan12345 · 23-05-2026 10:18PM

I’d be keeping and starting Thiago.

In terms of points I don’t see Spurs or West Ham attackers as options.

I think Sunderland are the team to punt on for attackers.

2nd Row Donkey · 24-05-2026 07:46AM

Solanke is fit for selection today. For anyone thinking of rolling the dice

Salah anyway, Bournemouth, Brighton, Spurs, Sunderland, Chelsea and West Ham players if going "different" and fully advoing Arsenal and City players.

Or if wanna go safe; clone most of ML leader team and get maybe Salah, Bowen, Ricky, Kroupi etc as the differentials if they don't own them. I'd be confident of catching a 2 point away leader with WC on hand.
