In this article, we will have a look at my current Free Hit team for Gameweek 34.

Most of the squad will have a familiar ring to it, so rather than waffle on about Mohamed Salah (£13.8m) and Alexander Isak (£9.5m), I’ll instead focus the majority of my words on a few other players I like, who I haven’t seen in quite so many RMT’s.

JARROD BOWEN

West Ham United haven’t been great from an attacking perspective under Graham Potter.

But in light of the opposition, I fancy Jarrod Bowen (£7.5m) to do well this weekend.

Brighton and Hove Albion have conceded 13 goals in their last five matches and will be without influential centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke (£4.5m), who is undergoing concussion protocols.

Fabian Hurzeler opted for Carlos Baleba (£5.0m) as an emergency centre-back the last time he missed out, and while he did pretty well, it was a poor overall performance by the Seagulls, with relegated Leicester City scoring twice and grabbing a rare point.

As for Bowen, he’s ticked along since returning from injury, with four goals and two assists in 10 starts, but I think he’s capable of hauling tomorrow, given how Brighton were picked apart on the counter-attack by Brentford last week.

In fact, only Leicester have conceded more counter-attack shots over the last five Gameweeks than Brighton, which could play into the hands of Bowen at the Amex.

    Can't believe I'm considering Palmer but on a FH. Kluvert or Palmer. Also while I'm here Sessegnon or Trippier? Thanks

        Thanks all. Right I'm defo Trippier now but I'm still torn on my mid? . Kluvert has man u who I hate but Chelsea have more to fight for although I'm aware Moyes is a tough cookie.

          Pope won’t be running much longer

        • BigKeith
          • 5 Years
          7 months, 21 days ago

          My mini league rival is 29 points ahead but is not free hitting his current team will most likely be

          Flekken
          Ait Nouri, Milenkovic, Kerkez
          Murphy, Mbuemo, Palmer, Salah, Kluivert (most likely)
          Cunha (most likely), Isak,

          How much risk would you take as differentials to potentially catch up? I was thinking of targetting Flekken, Milenkovic, Kerkez, Palmer, Murphy, Kluivert, and Cunha by going Leno, Cucurella, TAA, Diaz, Barnes, Raul, and Larsen. Am I doing too much and taking too much minutes risk to chase?

          1. Warby84
            • 10 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            Don’t overthink it

          2. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 11 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            decent team for non fh but you should be able to outscore this. your picks are good

          3. Pomodoro
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            The last four for sure.

          4. Blueberg
            • 10 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            They've got a decent set up for no FH. I'd defo try to go against Flekken, Milenkovic, Kerkez, Mbuemo and Kluivert. Palmer and Murphy might be a risk... I'd gor for maybe a few more Liverpool since they are weaker on that front, dias and trent maybe??? You could do Barnes over Kluivert if you think he will start.

        • Elijah's Wood
          • 11 Years
          7 months, 21 days ago

          Need a punty, all or nothing FH to catch-up in ML.

          Kepa
          Cucu Sess RAN
          Salah Jota Diaz Murphy Barnes

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            3-5-2 formation is puntu vs the template 3-4-3 this game week. Add Mbeumo somewhere in that 5

          2. Admiral Benson
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            I like it as an all or nothing. Captain Diaz and you’re set

          3. Cruyff's Eleven
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            Gordon

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            There's nothing punty about this except Jota.

          5. Cruyff's Eleven
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            Punty is TAA, Trippier, Kluivert, Gordon, Evanilson.

        • Ramires
          • 5 Years
          7 months, 21 days ago

          Wood or Evanilson on FH?

          Benching Palmer

          1. Ajax Hamsterdam
            • 11 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            evanilson

          2. Pomodoro
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            Play Palmer and get Wood.

        • Saka White Rice
          • 11 Years
          7 months, 21 days ago

          Seems like some people here haven't realised that Jiemenez has kuterally just one double digit haul all season.

          1. BigKeith
            • 5 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            Which forwards are you picking (I agree by the way but you cannot blame people targetting the fixtures with good minutes)

          2. Admiral Benson
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 5 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            Yeah, but Southampton and nailed to start. Kuterally a no brainer

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years

            He ain't playing 90 even with Muniz out.

                Jimenez pen record

                This season: 6/6

                    I don’t think so’ton know how to tackle well enough to concede a pen

            Hey, I'm not on a FH this week but my 2 nearest main rivals are and I'm 95 pts ahead. 3.8m in the bank
            However I only have 9 starters (it would be 10 if Cresswell was fit) - I have no idea why he doesn't have a flag in FPL he's deffo injured
            I want to cover off what they do so I figure I can afford a couple of hits.
            I've already done Saliba to Sessegnon and Mateta to Cunha so I've taken one hit of -4
            Are any of these worth another hit and if so which would you prefer? would you do more than 1? noting that these are permanent transfers
            a) Saka to Mbuemo
            b) Saka to Palmer
            c) Saka to Diaz
            d) Cresswell to VVD
            e) Cresswell to TAA

            1. indy13
              • 14 Years
              7 months, 21 days ago

              current team is
              Pickford, Cresswell, RAN, Sessegnon, Salah, Murphy, Barnes, Bowen, Isak and Cunha
              Non starters are Martinez, Saka, Marmoush, Gvardiol and Munoz

            2. Pomodoro
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 9 Years
              7 months, 21 days ago

              You're 95 ahead, you'll be fine with or without hits.

            3. Blueberg
              • 10 Years
              7 months, 21 days ago

              B and E I'd say.

            4. For Beto or Wirtz!
              • 1 Year
              7 months, 21 days ago

              No more hits needed. Think you've done enough with that lead

          6. boroie
            • 7 Years
            7 months, 21 days ago

            Ok I think I’m closing in on it… thoughts with this FH team?

            Alisson
            RAN Livramento Robinson
            Salah(C) Palmer Diaz Murphy
            Isak(VC) Cunha Raul

            Kepa; Mbeumo Cucurella Sessegnon

              Looks good

            what's wrong with picking wellbeck on fh?

            1. RICICLE
              • 3 Years
              7 months, 21 days ago

              Nothing at all, I like him as a pick. I had him before I knew Muniz was definitely ruled out.

              1. Ajax Hamsterdam
                • 11 Years
                7 months, 21 days ago

                didnt make the cut in your team though 😉

              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 5 Years
              7 months, 21 days ago

              Nothing, I’d go for him if I was chasing rank/mini league

            3. Pep's Money Laundry
              • 10 Years
              7 months, 21 days ago

              Nothing wrong with it, with so many options up front and only 3 spots available.

              Welbeck is my 4th choice behind Isak, Cunha, Wood. You and others will have a different preferences

            4. Pomodoro
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member

              Well, it’s done my nut in, so I reckon I’m fairly settled.

              Any major holes to prod in my FH gents?

              Leno
              RAN - TAA - Trippier
              Murphy - Diaz - Salah (c) - Palmer
              Raul - Isak (vc) - Cunha

                  Haha! Cheers bud! It’s fairly template, but I’m more than fine with that as my rival behind me in 2nd is only 21 points behind but he’s spurned his FH hehe!

                would rather have Larsen/Evanlison over Raul

                  • 3 Years
                  7 months, 21 days ago

                  Thanks man! That is the sole position I’m kinda still toying with. I do like Evanilson a lot, I just feel I have to attack the weak in SOU as I’m chasing, however UTD will also be weak, but not as dire as SOU haha!
                  I could get rid of Sa if going Larsen.
                  I’ll mull it over anyway, cheers.

                  Thanks mate! Balance is key and what I’m going for.
                  Not the keenest on Palmer but he’s a sure thing with 90 mins and pens, hoping Tarkowski out benefits him more.

                  1. OptimusBlack
                    • 12 Years
                    7 months, 21 days ago

                    I picked him too somi hope he doing well for us

                • 7 Years
                7 months, 21 days ago

                More or less the same except I’ve went Alisson and Robinson over Leno and TAA just because I’m not convinced on Trent’s minutes. Otherwise looks great!

                1. RICICLE
                  • 3 Years
                  7 months, 21 days ago

                  Thanks bud! Yep nothing wrong with Alisson & Robinson, I originally had them two in myself to begin with.
                  It’s risky with TAA, but I’m willing to go there, just have to hope he’ll be gunning for a start in what could be Pool’s league winning match.

                  1. boroie
                    • 7 Years
                    7 months, 21 days ago

                    Yeah toss of a coin and probably depends if you’re chasing or not. I’ve just managed to get into top 20k and am top of all mini leagues so happy to go a bit safer. Hence why I’m also going Robinson over Sessegnon.

                    1. RICICLE
                      • 3 Years
                      7 months, 21 days ago

                      Ahh yes that makes sense they if aiming to just be safer and protecting rank and ML’s, which is fantastic by the way! 😉

                    Yes that's it as he want to score a goal like last match and celebrate with his fans

                Templates. Good if you are consolidating.
                If chasing be more ballsy. Everton defence for instance, Brentford attackers vs NFO or any of the Brighton or West Ham attackers.

                  That’s the thing, I’m too of my ML’s even at 400k, but I really want to finish inside top 100k again, so I really should be chasing and being more gutsy.
                  Shall take this on board, cheers bud.

                    One third of the top 100k already used their FH. The chip itself is a differential. Just saying…..

                  Dude would u picked Cunha as a easy choice more than Larsen ?
                  I feel Larsen in ur case maybe a good differental
                  A chase like u and I feel Larsen maybe better than Cunha ?

                    It’s certainly a worthy consideration, just Cunha I feel is the main man and solely all over the bonus points, I’m confident he’s a far better pick than Larsen, but as FPL goes, this could easily be Larsen’s week haha.

                  Palmer captain? Geez you are one heck of an optimist!

                7 months, 21 days ago

                Not free hitting, but I cant help but think what my FH team would be, so here we go:

                Kepa
                Robinson - TAA - Cucu
                Salah - Diaz - Gordon - Barnes - Palmer
                Isak - Strand

                Taken me all week to get that. Palmer is only in because FPL is like that. He will return the week everyone gets him in because there is no where else to spend the money on.

                  It was looking good until I got to Gordon 😉

                  I don't think Everton is a good game for Palmer. Moyes is a stubborn SOB. He won't give Chelsea a drop.

                  1. have you seen cyan
                    • 6 Years
                    7 months, 21 days ago

                    Gordon is the one this week. Not sure why people don't see it.

                    Palmer flopping wont be a surprise. Its the expected result really, taking into account his recent form, when I say recent, 3 month form.

                  I think the Newcastle triple attack has so much upside. Is Gordon and Barnes to risky on FH ?

                      Both, yes
                      There’s a chance neither of them get over 60 mins

                      i have Murphy and Barnes starting this week and im not on a FH so I think its well worth having triple attack personally

                      • 14 Years
                      7 months, 21 days ago

                      would be easy triple attack if we know who will start! (but we don't)

                        Too much for my heart. Pick one and live with the consequences is my advice

                          Not necessarily, but 1 of them and Newcastle+wolves defence is better

                          Probably. Depends if you’re chasing. If you are, it could be worth the risk for the potential upside.

                          Are you chasing or defending? Having both is 'fun' for sure

                        Trent or Cucu guys and girls?

                        Quite like the potential attacking appeal of both. But I have RAN and Trippier who are locks, so it's 2 into 1...

                          I’d rather have Trent for 30 mins than Cucu for 90

                          Trent for 58mins when we're 3-0 up. We will concede in the last 10mins always the way.

                          Surprised no love for VVD, especially with Spurs bad from corners
                          TAA I like but you do worry about a sub-60 sub a tiny bit

                        Defence is where I'm finding it difficult, I would love to start all of Trent, Trippier, Cucu, RAN & Sess but of course I won't

                        I know whichever two end up on my bench, they'll be the ones that haul

                          I’ve nearly worn the ‘Save Team’ button out this week moving Sess in and out of the my team.

                        Looking through Neales/Scouts predicted lineups and it's tempting to gamble on one of Sessegnon or TAA in my starting 11.

                        Both currently on my bench and starting RAN, Trippier and Cucurella. Sessegnon/TAA would start ahead of Cucurella.

                          The RAN, Trippier, Cucurella defence is so vanilla.

                          Sometimes, you have to just go Rocky Road

                            Bench Wood or Diaz?

                                Probably Wood, however scary that is

                                Bench Wood.

                                    Leno and Sels on the bench

                                    Sess or Robinson for 2nd bench
                                    While I’m at it 2 of Mbeumo, Bowen, Palmer and Iwobi

                                        Also is Jota a worthy punt

                                          Maybe Jota is this week. But a really underwhelming performance from Jota this season. I always had great success with Jota in the past, this season he has been terrible for me. Two or three times I got Jota this season.

                                              Yeah it’s kinda for free hit debating him in for Bowen but then I would have to go Trent to cuccurella and I’m not sure about that

                                        Picking from Barnes, Murphy and Gordon on FH is a headache... Any one got any real gut feeling on it?

                                        Just watched the highlights of last 2 games of Wolves. JSL is getting loads of chances. Focal point of their attack. Better pick than Cunha?

                                          I feel that but most of ppl getting Cunha

                                          Maybe get both ?

                                          Cunha probably involved in creating those chances for Larsen.

                                          If Larsen and Cunha get the same number of attacking returns, Cunha will likely get more bonus points than Larsen

                                          both?

                                          larsen gets less chances with cunha on the pitch. cunha is a shot hogger tbh

                                          Cunha is the bonus points magnet, this and penalties are why I choose him over Larsen

                                            Cunha is safe bps and pens
                                            Larsen is differential only because no content Creators have him

                                              Yes, but the game might just be moved into 37 itself
