I will give you all a ballpark answer then YHTL will give you the proper answer!

You’re not gonna win any leagues if you’re paying for multiple transfers each week. It’s four points for a clean sheet or the same for a striker to score.

No you lose money if he goes down in value.



4pts is a big sanction, when you consider
6pts is a decent return on a normal week.

6 x 12(inc captain) x 38 = 2736

Bench boost 5 x 6 = 30

Triple captain 6... (Obviously hope for more!)

2772 is going to go close to winning



Planning ahead can avoid -4 but sometimes needs must.

Fair enough and I suppose it's easy enough to say that you will make 5 or 6 transfers but it's another thing trying to juggle and find the money to manage it.

Apart from your wildcard that is to be used before Xmas (you get a second one after Christmas) I wouldn’t contemplate using any of your boosts this year.

In the second half of the season there’s often game weeks where players will play two games that week. That’s good for triple captain or bench boost. There will also be an FA Cup week where some PL sides are still in it. That could mean just four or five games are played that week. That’s an ideal time to play your bench boost.

Free hit is decent for weeks where there
are only 3 or 4 games.

As you can change your team for one week
and it reverts after that week.




Don't mix up wild card and free hit... Schoolboy stuff!!!


Wild card permanently changes your team.

It is early, and Wk 1 fixtures were somewhat favourable
to big buys, so some big scores out there.

Pep is a nightmare for this game.

I've had a theory about Salah for some time now, that he's not happy at Liverpool and rather be coining it elsewhere (Saudi).. After his on field interview Saturday.. I was wrong. Sad

I'd also expect Jota, Darwin, Gakpo and Diaz to be rotated.. Salah will be ever present unless injured.. I need to get Salah in ASAP.

If you want to keep Haaland then it looks like you need to sacrifice Palmer and one of your other strikers.

I can’t believe you haven’t got either of them in your Sun team either.
By:

I think Jota stays as the main striker for now. Confident holding onto him

Haaland at home to cannon fodder, shirley.

No Haaland, here, Arsenal, Newcastle are away.

Son or Muniz, or Trent for me... How did it come to this?



75 points week 1, but week 2 doesn't look as good on paper.

If I was Kieran McKenna I'd be spending most of my week schooling my centrebacks in exactly how to stop Haaland. Most of the big clubs have him sussed.

Haaland spent most of his time running to far post.

But not when he scored, of course.

Opens up lots of space for others,....

I would be bringing in Foden if I had a spare transfer. I think Ipswich sit back and be very aggressive, and can just imagine Phil doing his magic and being too much for them skill wise. I'd aldo fancy Ispwich to make mistakes and give away a pen.

I went with Salah last week
very late change from Salah & Haaland strategy (why???) also meant 6 other late changes and got lucky
means wing and a prayer job this week

Emitdeb you did really well for a first week
for easy access to stats use the stats tab on the FPL screen
using Transfers in (round) or Transfers Out (round ) you can see what others are thinking
Dont rush in too quick he has 5 days to trip over his wallet yet, unless De Br is struggling

Also if you want to see how really lucky people did
in most right hand column screens go down until General League heading
click on the 'Overall' league ... it will show you the leaders
click on their names to see their Teams
Some take some believing  ShockedShockedShocked

remember its only Week 1 Happy

Fools rush in!.. Seems I cant undo my Foden transfer!! SadConfused Is this a fact?
By:

Yep, it will cost you 4pts to reverse it.

You have unlimited transfers pre season

You also have unlimited transfers for game week if you play
free hit or wildcard chip.

You could reverse it for free by using one of those chips
but would be a waste, unless you need multi transfers.
By:

I wouldn't be in a rush

You can but it will now 'cost you' you only get one free transfer per game week

Any after that cost you 4 points per transfer
Why the rush ?

I'm a regular player of the Sun Dreamteam, which has a policy of being able to reverse any transfers right up to the closing time each week. (why not!)... Angry. Never crossed my mind that this wouldn't be the case here too.. Cry
