Do players who have covid/game off get substituted like usual? I've got Dier on my bench but Tarkowski won't be playing.

Yep. Happened when Spurs/Fulham game was postponed.

Whats the difference between a wild card and a free hit?

[KFS]

Done over twice today by consolation goals

Free hit allows changes for one week only where as wildcard is changes forever.

[StanSP]

Mahrez coming on for 2 mins has possibly denied me 11 Soucek points from the bench.

Pep, you utter cvnt.

This next game week is a shocker 
 

How many players has everyone got for it? Think I’ve got 5  

 

Feel like maybe they could have rolled it into this one? They’ve done that for the game week after this next one.

What a mess that is! 

 

Then the game week after doesn't have every team playing twice.

 

Definitely feel my free hit and wildcard coming on for these 2.

[StanSP]

Was the fixture list always like this? Would have saved my free hit if I'd have known! 

 

Think I've got 6 players playing. 

[AjcW]

For me it would have made sense to roll the next three gameweeks into one. Just to give everyone a fair shot! 

 

The next one massively favours those who go for big team players, then the one after is mixed, then the one after is more the mid table lot.

Nightmare! 

 

It's been my worst season ever anyway so might as well just ride the wave  

[Detroit Blues]

This is my first year on this thing. Should I be using the free hit this week since most of my players don't have a game scheduled?

I think it would make sense to do so.

Jurgen not playing Jones meant Soucek came in

 

 

[Nalis]

Got 86, highest I've had this season.

Bit of a strange gameweek coming up and the big teams are playing bankers (on paper anyway) meaning its difficult to know who to captain.

 

Lacazette in for DCL, Stones in for Zouma. Stones is my only defender playing....and he might not even play

And I haven't even got free hit anymore  I put Stones and KDB in, and captained KDB, given they've got Brighton.

[StanSP]

I've used my wildcard and tried to plan for this mini game week and also next week's double. Might as well take the gamble. 

 

I got through the cup round last week by skin of my teeth. Anyone else get through? 

[KFS]

This game is broken this year  

[Nick]

This week is the free hit week for me to ensure I get all players on the pitch.

 

Next week involves a couple of subs to maximise the double game week and bench boost just in case my rubbish bench get a bit of a run out due to the close proximity of double fixtures for clubs.

 

Second wildcard kept in back pocket in case Fernandes gets sold in the January window to Madrid following Pogba sex scandal, Kane and Son sadly die of Corona and Rashford is assassinated by MI5 for uncovering senior government officials profiting from free school meal starvation deaths.

Why on earth did Sterling take that pen? How many more chances is he gonna get to prove what a terrible finisher he is. Joke.

 

KDB is the taker, he’s the captain. He’s just cost me and I’m sure many others 16 points!

[UniFox21]

Captaining Kane has saved me from an awful week. Only KDB and Cancelo decent scoring wirh the free hit

Sterling has missed 3 consecutive penalties now  No idea by KDB didn't take it (and KDB was my captain too!).

I am still seething about this. I never normally get this worked up about fpl. This has really got to me 

 

Seems like a huge lack of common sense all round.

[KFS]

Anyone know if benched players this week get transferred in?

Yep, like any normal week.
