The 100 Club
We began fearing for our Free Hit team early doors, namely the second when our captain Aguero first looked over to the bench. Whenever he does that you usually don’t see him again for a few weeks. And sure enough, there he was gone, albeit with a decent captains score in the bag already, for a single game-week player anyway. Things got worse when Lindelof did indeed fail to appear, especially bad as we had ‘prior’ warning of this but chose to ignore it. That decision did ultimately play into our hands though as had we acted we would probably have dispensed with Azpi and Laporte in some sort of defensive reshuffle to accommodate Smalling and his own goal. Keeping the latter two paid dividends big time as they brought in 34 points between them. Elsewhere Mili got his customary penalty and Rashford got a goal before disappearing for Part 2. Likewise the decision to take Hazard over Kane was looking ropey at best after he was benched but ultimately he came through with a stellar display later on.
And so after a seemingly lacklustre start to the DGW our Free Hit team eventually pulled its socks up and brought us home with a hallowed triple digit point score. 107 to be exact. That put us 34pts above the average and gave us our 4th green arrow in a row with a relatively healthy jump of about 10k in rank which leaves us at 13,915th overall.
Our GW32 Result…
And so onto BGW33. As a reminder then we played our Free Hit chip last week which means our old GW31 team pops back out for a brief cameo before we wave it goodbye again next week as we intend to use our second Wildcard prior to using our Bench Boost or Triple Captain in DGW35. We have 1 Free Transfer and £1.8m in the bank, let’s go see how we decided to use those…
This week’s transfer – we have sold Felipe Anderson and bought James Maddison
Our old GW31 / new GW33 team has 11 players showing with a fixture this week. One of whom is the currently injured Felipe Anderson and regardless of his recovery status he has a tough game this week at Chelsea…
A unanimous vote for Maddison and probably the easiest and quickest team meeting we’ve had this season. Any fixture vs Huddersfield looks ripe for the picking though our decision making progress was made easier by the fact that we couldn’t find anyone who was playing Fulham this week 
With the Foxes in decent form under Brenda and Maddison & Tielmans linking up well with Vardy we thought it prudent to up the Leicester coverage in front of next week’s planned Wildcard.
Our Captain is Jamie Vardy
As per our transfer decision, a fixture vs relegated Huddersfield was too good to ignore and therefore we have captained Jamie Vardy this week. Sadio Manè is our vice.

My defence for this gw is wan b, bednarek and TAA (Shaw and Doherty on the bench). Is it worth taking a -4 to sell bednarek for most likely Azpi. Would be a one week punt as WC next week.
As always with defenders I would probably never take a hit for just one single Gameweek, Azpi needs a cleanie just to get that 4 points back, it’s unlikely he’ll get attacking returns really, the goal he scored last week was offside too, I would probably not take the hit… If it was for longer then yes, but you’re playing WC next week so no, for an attacking player you could do it but not for a def imo!
I concur.
I brought Azpi in for Shaw for a hit. At this stage, I really don’t have much to lose, my alternative was to play Bednarek against Liverpool or Rice against Chelsea.
How am i looking for the Week lads ? 2.9 itb and 1 FT and still have WC, TC and BB. planning to use WC next week. I am able to field 11 players this week but may be a better GK or want to get hazard by replacing anderson but am short of 0.1m ?
How about take a hit and replace Ederson and Anderson -> Hazard and any GK ?? Suggestions please
How about Hazard and Kepa? Don’t see any other team with better clean sheet potential in there seeing as you already have triple Pool…
Sounds grand.. Thanks Zed
Morning all,
I’m in the WC34 BB35 camp.
0.9ITB done -4 to bring in Wilson & Maddison.
Boruc playing time iffy…is it worth an another -4 to bring in a playing keeper?
Or any other changes?
Thanks!
Not worth a hit Haz.
Leave it like that I think.
Thanks GP!
Morning.
I have 1FT and 2.7 ITB.
WC also available- any help appreciated – thanks !
I’d sell Aguero and Kamara for Vardy and Wilson if you can afford it
Thinking being it’l maximise your returns having attacking players since you’ll still be short 2 players. And then you can WC next week in preparation of GW 35.
Somehow don’t feel this week is worth a WC. FH if you still have it maybe
Decent advice this I think.
Thanks for this
Vardy Captain?
Yeah. For me anyway.
For me too!
Hey Guys, confused what to do.
No FH/WC left. Only have 05 players for this week, if I rule out Alonso and Hayden. Need to prepare my squad for DGW35. I think I can’t have 15 players without major hits from this week till then. So, BB35 seems out of picture right now. May be I’d BB in a better week, where my bench players also have better fixtures.
What do you managers suggest?
Ouch. You’re right you got a bit of mini rebuilding to do before season ends.
I’d probably take a -4 hit to bring in 2 attacking starters. Aguero and Hayden for Wilson and Maddison maybe. Aguero seems to be out for a bit. And you wouldn’t lose price on Jimenez and Sterling.
And yes totally agree on BB late on in the season if you can’t be ready for DGW 35. Might help you in you ML with some unexpected points at the end
Thanks for the reply FPLDoc. Honetly, I have more price held with Aguero than Sterling. But, If a player of his price is sitting on the bench, that doesn’t make sense.
How about:Shaw+ Aguero to Kolasinac + Lacazette for a -4? That’d give me DGW cover as well. I’ll have to anyways take hits in coming times, i believe.
If you have more funds in Aguero then you could take out Sterling. My issue with Aguero n his injury is he usually misses out more than 2 weeks with such injuries. Again, it’s a toss up. They’re both expensive but at least we know Sterling’s not injured. Also with the games coming thick and fast, I see Aguero being rotated more
And +1 on the transfers loading up on Arsenal. I’d probably do that in prep for GW 35 too.
(Note : 5 of Arsenals 7 remaining matches are away, so I might load up on Arsenal attackers rather than Kola)
Guys this is what I’m going with. Still not sure about the captain or subs order though. How am I looking?
Look good to go.
Cheers bud
I’d consider Rice instead of Bednarek who I think is almost guaranteed to lose a CS tonight. Rice has an attacking threat, certainly more than Bednarek’s and West Ham could be right up for this derby.
In that case he should probably change his capo to an LFC player.
Among Saints vs Liverpool and chelse vs westhsm I’d chose chelse. Hazard usually scores in bursts. He did last week, he’s due 1 this week and what better team to do it against than 1 that shipped in 3 vs Huddersfield.
Also, Chelsea play at home and Southampton have a better form in comparison to West Ham
