Free Hit GW29 or GW34? | The People's Poll ep. 157 | Planet FPL 2024/25

[@gavinblack450]

Good pod, think you’re underestimating how many people will have 7 players minimum (3 pool, 3 Newcastle and Rogers) and then add in fact most will have minimum of 1 or 2 Palace given they have been and still are top of fixture ticker so that’s most engaged teams having 8 or 9 blankers come GW 25…..many be praying for a Spurs win. Manageable for those with 4-5 free transfers but incredibly tricky for those with 1 or 2.

[@allymacdonald7321]

As someone with no transfers stored up, would it be wiser to use ass man chip in gw24 over getting 3rd liv asset and TC'ing? As ass man doesn't cost a transfer.

@31:27 Cunha has great fixtures gw29-34 though Suj. SOU(a), WHU(h), IPS(a), TOT(h), MUN(a), LEI(h). Cunha is capable of scoring against MUN(a) and being a bonus magnet / offer great value then. Mateta (playing MCI a in 32, then BOU h + NEW a in dgw33, then ARS a in 34) to Gakpo if he looks solid for minutes in gw32 just before WHU(h) which is a fixture LIV could score four goals in (sorry mate, LIV attack v WHU defence is good for LIV) then LIV have a double in 33 (if they make EFL Cup Final) of LEI a, AVL a.

Great pod James! Really helpful early insight - thanks mate! 👍🏼

[@MDot97]

The issue with FH34 is Newcastle, Liverpool assets are useful in gw33 and I expect Wood will still be in people's teams seeing Not. Forest fixtures 29-36. I would be surprised if Chelsea are out of the FA Cup before the quarterfinals so unless they face Newcastle/Liverpool for example, their fixture v Everton probably gets put in dgw36. In such case, Palmer will be a mass transfer out in gw33 as he plays FUL(a), blank and LIV(h) from 33-35 when Saka probably has three fixtures (if CRY do not reach FA Cup semis) which are IPS(a), CRY(h), BOU(h). I made a BB33 and it consists of 12 doublers + Wood, Saka, Gabriel (since I will wildcard most likely in gw35).

Just finished with the last podcast. Perfect timing!

[@PlanetFPL]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@owainjones1078]

Great pod guys as always

[@MDot97]

I just looked into FH29 last night and I like using the FH then. In gameweek 33, the double gameweeks for AVL and CRY (seeing many of us own 5 or 6 from NEW+LIV right now) are not too appealing. AVL playing NEW and LIV at home, CRY plays BOU home and NEW away.

[@MDot97]

Pep in gw36 with AVL(h) and SOU(a) for AM chip looks great, then in gw37 BOU may draw Man City so Brentford host Fulham and it might be a table bonus so Frank works, then if Ipswich are still needing points (let's say it's them v Wolves for gw38 safety) I'll happily use McKenna for gw38 given its West Ham(h). AM35-37 could also be enticing if Brentford are somehow five spots below Man Utd seeing BRE at home probably win or draw that fixture (maybe 70% of that happening).

For the mighty algorithm goblins 🍻

[@LvvLndv]

I know that in GW34 we might have already 6-7 players in that week despite the blank, but I'd still stick with FH34. The Blank GW29 is managable given we have a wildcard to fix it right after that. I don't think a FH29 has that much upside though.

[@matthewfairbrace7206]

Cheers lads 👍

[@FplRabbi]

That’s a smashing top Suj 😮‍💨🔥

[@PlanetFPL]

Fashion GOAT🐐

[@nigelwalters8363]

Top stuff.

[@shayne77]

I’d still want to take on Palmer at the Emirates

[@sahebdhillon1124]

I think I will be FH29 if Newcastle go through because I have triple palace ( Munoz Sarr Mateta) and Isak, and then triple Liverpool, By FH it allows me to keep team value and attack their good fixtures after 29

[@FPLucho]

Chippy Chips? Or 🍟

[@tonygee26]

For anyone new to Planet FPL this season; Ignore Suj and focus on James when it comes to chip strategy

[@PlanetFPL]

A tad harsh on Suj! He gets it right, sometimes... 😂😂

[@ConorF727]

I’m with Suj on this, leaning towards FH29.

[@fplUPROAR]

I hope Spurs and Arsenal make the final! :D

[@PlanetFPL]

Ange always wins something on his second season 😉

[@notorious_new]

Dead end to 29

[@KailamiMwiinga]

Terrible plan I think

[@notorious_new]

@KailamiMwiinga nope, when BGW34 comes then you would wish you had the FH chip
