Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! – Fantasy Premier League 2019-20
With the resumption of the Premier League, and of course FPL, things are finally back to normal, right? Well, not quite! That said, what is normal these days?
Whilst we have all been diligently following government legislation for what feels like an eternity, football of any description feels like a welcome distraction for some, and others an unnecessary risk. Wherever you sit on that debate we respect your opinion. Whether you’re for or against football without fans matters little, that’s how it’s going to be, so let’s just suck it up and get back to why we’re here; FPL.
Maybe you used a Chip for the DGW that never was, blew your Wildcard preparing for fixtures that didn’t happen, or used your weekly FT’s during the lockdown perfecting your team only for everyone to be given unlimited Free Transfers. Dems the breaks kids.
With unlimited Free Transfers, Chips still to play and a whole host of changes to football that will likely have ramifications for our FPL season finale, we thought what better time to turn to our Amigo’s and see how they plan to see out their season in style before riding off into the sunset… ready to come back again a few weeks later.

Morning all.
Good to be back. Hope all is well.
Think I might go down the bb route then wildcard. Unsure what to do with some players like taa jiminez got a bit of value in them.
New and old team
Quick knock up what u think?
Hi S,
I’m doing the same thing as I’ve got FH to use later this season too. My personal view is that if you’re going to use BB then go all in with it. 12 DGW players but that will leave you 3 that aren’t.
If you are worried about losing value then keep these players as part of the 3. I’ve kept Jimenez as I fancy him to do well anyway.
Yeah like that s :good:
Morning all,
So glad to be back! Thank you all for the article, please that everyone is keeping well and safe.
I’m going BB for GW30+ and would love your feedback on my team?
Looks good that
As close to perfect as you’ll get I think Super Reds.
Well done.
For some reason, I read Sokratis as Pepe (don’t ask!) – double Arsenal defence is maybe a stretch.
On the whole very good though – don’t go tearing it up!
Thanks all. Not going to tinker any more I don’t think.
I did have Laporte & Pepe instead of Sokratis & Sterling but thought the latter was a stronger pair
One of the best I’ve seen so far.
So, if one has BB and FH and no WC left, best option is to use FH and get in a DGW squad?
LRL
If you are happy with your squad just now (in other words, happy for it to get you to the end of the season) then I would say so yes.
I have this and can’t really decide on FH or BB:
Pope
TAA Saiss Lundstram
Salah KDB Fernandes Saka
Auba DCL Jimi
Gazzaniga Cathcart Sarr Taylor
Team before any changes.
That doesn’t look a bad squad at all to see you through to the end of the season.
By my reckoning you only have 4 DGW players currently?
With no WC left and a DGW right in front of us, I would advise you to play Free Hit with 12 DGW players. Others may disagree but I’d attack that DGW with 12 players and then revert to the above squad for GW31+ onwards.
Bench Boost can be kept for later.
Thanks Gallant. That seems wise.
So Lundstram scores two and Ceballos suddenly makes it in my team
And we have a week to go!
:dash:
Why Ceballos, Smash? Have you seen / heard something to make you fancy him or just want a punt?
He’s playing in friendlies and played last three. I’m not sure I’m convinced though but would be a massive punt. I’ve just changed it round again and he’s out again.
Brilliant article, funny and insightful, thank you guys.
Does anyone know if Hanley is first choice now? I know Zimmerman was injured
Hi Smash,
Not that it guarantees a starting position but is Hanley not captain???
If so, must give him a decent opportunity of playing.
Jamie
Yeah I think you might be right. I know he spent a long time out of the side though and I don’t think it was injury
@Smash, he had a groin issue and a subsequent surgery. I believe he is a first choice defender when fit.
