The poor man's FPL review then, yeah?

Those changes make Foden essential.

Just saw this funny short video about Cucurella. Halland hattrick incoming? 🙂

Rip should I just burn the FT posts

I went to Sky Fantasy Football today to see what was happening only to be informed that it is no more. The 2023/24 season was the last, shame it was always an enjoyable distraction from FPL

Changes?
What did I miss?

Ederson staying

Game releasing today ?

Whats poeples guesses for rhe new chip? I’m hoping for a double captain chip. Able to pick two caps in one GW.

My guess is Limitless...

I reckon they will be using all our comments on the new stuff as beta testing. Looking for an "oh bugger" didnt think of that for the Q & A.

Smart thinking Lanley...you might be spot on with that statement since it will be activated in January...

Just realised how great fulham fixtures are! Woooow

These changes mean more bonus points for CBs?

You reckon muniz will play 90 minutes most games?

I really dont want to wake up at 4am tomorrow

Hot Topic

Which Keepers are going to score? 10pts for a goal is a high worth chasing.

So... what's the lowest team ID you've ever managed to get?

The best I got was 345. Which I was very pleased with considering how easy it is to remember. Would like to get triple digits tomorrow if possible.

Statsbomb, statsbomb (yeah) you're a statsbomb (uh-huh)
You can give it to me when I hand over my spondulies (take it from me)
Statsbomb, statsbomb (um) you're my statsbomb
And my baby, she will frown upon

With the potential for fewer blank & double gameweeks how about this strategy
GW1 Bench Boost
GW2 Free Hit
GW3 Wildcard if needed
GW4 3 Free transfers available
Could get you off to a flying start & also get you to 5 free transfers asap

Does anybody manage relegation/promotion in their mini-league and if so how do you manage/administer that ?

Long standing league where a bunch of early enthusiastic players get bored and stop engaging. Want to move them to a B league at say Christmas but everyone can come up and down.

Others must do similar ??

What time is the game launching tomorrow? Anyone ITK?

Initial thoughts re. 5 transfers.

With less data at our disposal at the start, bank as many FT’s as you can.

Wildcard GW 5-6.

You’ll then have probably atleast 3 transfers banked, and with the wildcard played and team set up nicely, you’ll be in a great position to pivot with 5 transfers every week. Very rarely will you need more than 3 transfers so you’ll have that safety net at all times.

Simply, get to 5 transfers as quick as possible, Wildcard to move onto the next 5-6 fixture swing, then constantly pivot with a healthy amount of free transfers at your disposal.

Really don’t like this mystery chip idea

What if someone in FPL towers
1. Can plan for weeks in advance in preparation of using the chip while nobody else knows what it is.
2. Makes the chip up as it goes along to suit the dynamics of their team.
3. Has a secret financial deal going to tell the “elite” content creators such as @LetsTalk_FPL about the specific chip details to help them achieve high ranks and hence credibility so they keep generating income from the average man.

I always thought a cool chip would be that you can sub 1 player into your team from your bench once per season

I want a Truth Pill Chip where when activated, all the content creators have to admit they know nothing more about footy than the average fella down the pub, in fact less.

my guess is, they don't yet know what to do...so they've bought themselves 4 months to either come up with something, or they'll pinch someone else's good guess.....if they have an idea, it's probably something lame like selling a player at full profit, rather than half-profit.
