Chip 'strategy'

[FPL Socialist]

Meaning 'strategy' in the loosest possible way since I'm basically just winging it.  Dead ended into gw29 but extending that by a week - WC gw31 then have BB & FH with absolutely no idea when i'll use them yet.  Probably depends on the DGW announcements but not really going to set up a team which is weaker but has more doublers - will just bring in DGW bench fodder.

Anyone got a clear strategy?

I had to used my WC early in the 2nd half of the season because of injuries. I also used my FH for GW29 which didn't go so well. I do have my TC and BB left though. 

My plan is to look at the remaining 9 game weeks on a fixture planner that colour codes the games for teams in green, amber or red for goals and clean sheets. Then I base my teams off this method. I used the one on fantasy football hub, but I know there are freebies out there. I have seen a few on some apps also. 

First I focus on defence and look at the teams with good home fixtures, then I try and choose attacking return defenders. Then I look at goal potential and choose my midfield. and forwards. 

I always play a 3-5-2 formation if I can. 

That's how I start anyway, until injuries and suspensions kick in.

Extending the dead end team seemed too work since it got my highest GW rank off the season (50k) 🥳

Wildcard active. Have taken a very different approach to you defence wise Hoodini. One semi premium (White) then cheap as chips for the rest, which means loads of money for the attacking positions.

Time will tell whether it works but now committed to Bb34. GK/Def for that will have:

1 x Arsenal

1 x Everton

1 x Bournemouth 

2 x Wolves

2 x Palace

What could possibly go wrong 😬🤣

Goo luck! Let us know how it goes!

I have loaded up on a few DGW players for GW 34. Now I have my eyes on the other double gameweeks. Son has a good run of fixtures coming up soon for example. 

Not many gw's left now!

What went wrong was that I settled on Robertson instead of Branthwaite.

Doh! 🤦‍♂️

What went well was having Mateta and Watkins up front & Arsenal lads.  

Big green arrow, but will be tough to keep momentum with all the incoming wildcards & BB37's.

Those green arrows is what it is all about.
