FPL GW6 Wildcard Guide - The Big One!

[@speardrops]

New picks: Lewis & Milenkovic Looks like Mosquera could be out 12 weeks+ with an MCL injury: x.com/Wolfpackwwfc/status/1838315867253457065?t=9SSiJr7ll1sfzfi94TidJQ&s=19 VDB, Greaves, Faes, and Bednarek the remaining 4.0 options. Raya may be injured.

[@user-md1tn2cf3m]

Thanks so much for getting this out early spear. Your delivery and the work you put in under the circumstances is just mad. And so grateful to you for that !

[@james_musau]

Looking great. Was waiting for this video

[@cw2915]

Excellent stuff

[@simonhart2186]

Myko at 4.3 looks great now. Branthwaite played 90mins for the under 21s this weekend as well so I expect him to at least be in the squad next week. Fixture run is too good to ignore, but totally agree with you on McNeil. Hope the arm’s on the mend.

[@speardrops]

@simonhart2186 there's some great value across all 3 outfield positions. Has to be worth gambling on at least 1 or 2 of them. Benchable at those prices, too. Braithwaite back will be gigantic for you guys.

[@simonhart2186]

@@speardrops definitely worth considering. Who’s your pick between DCL, Pedro and Wood as 3rd 343 striker? (Great tigers comeback last week)

[@speardrops]

@simonhart2186 Big win at Stoke! DCL for me. I'm torn between him and a rotating Vardy. Wood also decent but rubbish fixtures for an attacker.

[@lucasglanville2880]

I'm a big fan of how Chelsea defence rotates with either Forest or Man Utd defence. Have Colwill + Aina currently.

[@speardrops]

For sure. I had both of pairs these in my rotation video from earlier this season: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gauuinpubNylq6csi=TiexTZ6wcLT7NYeU Not a fan of Forest fullbacks, much prefer either CB due to nailedness and goal threat. Colwill looking really solid at 4.5 but fixtures turn in 3 weeks.

[@yanndep5614]

Jackson - DCL - Haaland + Mbeumo - Semenyo - Diaz - Saka - Rogers OR Swap Jackson + Semenyo to Watkins + Dibling. Thanks for all the great content btw !

[@speardrops]

I like Watkins v Ipswich.

[@peterjohnson5872]

Fortunately done my WC6 the other day to nab some of the risers. Raya / 4.0 TAA / Gabriel / Lewis / 4.0 / 4.0 Saka / Diaz / Mbuemo / Rogers / 4.5 Haaland / Watkins / DCL Seems to match with your stats fairly well. 2nd time's the charm as my original team has me at 2m. 🤞 Cheers for the vid!

[@speardrops]

@peterjohnson5872 looks good, Lewis the only one I'd shift and Diaz is a big minutes risk but more of a high risk, high reward. Lots of wildcarders have been activating them after transfers and hits so they affect price changes!

[@peterjohnson5872]

@@speardrops Decided to sell Lewis for the 0.1 profit partly due to the Rodri injury. To get Salah over Diaz I could do: Raya -> Sels 4.5 MID -> Semenyo Watkins -> Larsen DCL -> Stewart Tempting depending on the Raya injury rumours...

[@speardrops]

@peterjohnson5872 too light up top and I think Watkins could outscore Salah this week!

[@Watzpoppiin]

How to decide to WC? Sels / Turner Robinson / Porro / TAA / Quansah / Faes Palmer / Rogers / ESR / Eze / Salah Haaland / Joao Pedro / Uijo Like my strategy doesnt emphasize caring about defense, so I dont care too much to WC but I am also missing Saka. And I kinda want Arsenal defense. 0.4 ITB 2 free transfers

[@speardrops]

@@Watzpoppiin I'd WC6 this. No Arsenal, no Brentford, no Bournemouth, no Watkins.

[@Watzpoppiin]

@@speardrops thx for the quick reply GOATED creator!!

[@Watzpoppiin]

​@speardrops which would you choose 1) Watkins, McNeil, Sels, Lekker 2) Wood, Maddison, Raya, Valdimarsson Leaning towards 1 bc I think watkins is a nice differential but I'm also not as confident about him gaining minutes

[@speardrops]

@@Watzpoppiin 1 easy for me

[@skimpy150190]

Great content as always, thanks! Although, kinda surprised you think Leicester, Southampton, and Ipswich are the worst teams in the league.

[@speardrops]

@skimpy150190 cheers, I honestly don't see any of them staying up. Too much quality in the prem and I think Everton turn it round results wise.

[@neverknowsbest2327]

Not a single Fulham player? Are their next fixtures really so much worse? Would love to hear your opinion on my current WC picks: Raya, Fabianski TAA, Gabriel, Robinson, Aina, Greaves Saka, Diaz, Mbeumo, Rogers, Dibling Haaland, Jackson, Wood I know Diaz and Jackson is probably quite punty for a WC, but if they get dropped I can always easily swap them to e.g. a Maddison or Solanke. So this flexibility + ~1 itb do feel good. Dropped Salah in the process, I feel like since I only captain Haaland the money not spent on Salah is better value somewhere else. Some of the options I'm considering: 1) Go with two 4.0 def and Jackson to Watkins, 0 itb 2) Dibling to a second 5 like Amad or Adama and rotate (not a big fan of rotating though), ~0.4 itb 3) ESR for Rogers or for Diblings with Jackson and Wood to Watkins and play 5 mid with Stewart bench, 0 itb 4) Keep the above draft (maybe some defense changes like Robinson to Mazraoui)

[@speardrops]

@neverknowsbest2327 I like all four except no. 2. Fulham just have a bad run now. ESR and Rob are fine holds outside of a WC but there's better fixtures with similar points potentials. Diaz and Jackson are as you said - high upside but could easily get benched and if not will get subbed. It still could be worth it. Salah I agree on if you're not captaining him.

[@neverknowsbest2327]

@@speardrops Thanks for the reply. I think I'll just stick with the above draft for now then. Maybe go Rogers to ESR but I'm not so sure if it's worth it now that Rogers finally returned and that extra change could come in handy in case Diaz/Jackson flops.

[@trentpaul1932]

Nkunku is Jackson’s back up and Felix is Palmers by what the coach has said in presser. There all rotation risks from 60mins, too many quality players to steal minutes off each other.

[@speardrops]

@trentpaul1932 Yes, that's what puts me off the Chelsea attackers. Takes about 35 mins of points potential away at fairly high prices.

[@skimpy150190]

Any reason why you mentioned not to bother with Forest fullbacks specifically? Besides GW1, he played full games.

[@speardrops]

@skimpy150190 none of them are nailed and Aina may be injured. Milenkovic or Murillo easy for me.

[@skimpy150190]

@@speardrops Oh I don't see any news about him potentially being injured. Did he look hurt the last game?

[@speardrops]

@@skimpy150190 MGW had an insta post where he looked injured in the background. His historical xGI also isn't great.

[@MrBeatak]

excellent video 🙏 i would like your suggestion if i should wildcard or wait i have right now Henderson / 4.0 Saliba / Konate / Mykolenko / Faes / 4.0 Bernardo / Son / Mitoma / Mbeumo / Saka Haaland / Havertz / 4.5 what changes would you suggest? 0,1M in bank

[@speardrops]

@@MrBeatak only issue here is no TAA. Mitoma to Rogers, eventually one of your backline to TAA.

[@MrBeatak]

@@speardrops thanks, i was thinking about getting TAA but as of right now not possible without multiple hits, i was thinking about maybe switching haverz for wood/dlc after his easy fixtures and getting TAA, and inbetween somehow getting rid of mitoma before his hard fixtures for rogers/smith row/semeneyo

[@ieuanlloyd2563]

Thinking of going for 2 sets of rotating defenders to go with Gabriel. Currently on mazraoui and collwill, and mykolenko and murrillo. That the best combo?

[@speardrops]

@@ieuanlloyd2563 rough as it would mean no TAA. Something like that, Davis a consideration too and VDB for value and fixtures.

[@robertdocan2489]

What's your opinion on midfielders? I'm on a wc and i have already rogers saka mbeumo semenyo. I have maximum 7.5 mil left so no luis diaz unfortunately. I'm thinking on maddison but im not convinced,followed maybe by bowen/eze but both are not so cleared options for me.

[@nitrooo_]

thoughts on rico lewis especially with rodri out?

[@speardrops]

@@nitrooo_ more interesting, but I still worry for his minutes, KDB Kovacic Silva Gundo could all fill in the double pivot with Wallker and Gvar at FB. Gundo is intriguing. Rodri injury makes their defense much weaker.

[@Greathingsarehappening]

Thoughts on savio of city and carvalho of brentford? Looks like nobody is playing the position of savio in city and carvalho looks like he’s taking wissas positon

[@speardrops]

@haroutkhacheekian8693 Foden, Silva, and Doku can play there. I did assess him when creating this but too much of a risk given other nailed options at the 6.5 mark. If he becomes nailed then for sure interesting. Carvahlo a fantastic price and fixtures but huge rotation risk right now.

[@avatar_legend]

Hi, what do you think of porro?

[@speardrops]

@avatar_legend utterly terrible fixtures for a defender unfortunately, great player to watch and quality attacking fullback
